all accepted by Senator Tydings as good
liberal Democrats. On the record. it
was ridiculous for anyone to suppose
that Senator Tydings would turn up any

accepted as evidence that he really can

tell Communist from 'liberal"-and

been victim of Roosevelt confusion.
1t should be completely clear to every
one, by this time, that Communists can,

only by elected representatives who know
how to identify them. and who, know
what to do when they are identified.

Education and 'Rocism'


The District branch of the Women's
International League for Peace and Free
dom deeply regrets that the Board Of
Education has endorsed both the action
Of Mrs. Opal Cookery principal of Ana
costa High School. in banning scenes
from 'The Faith of Our Fathers with
white and Negro performers. and DR..
Hobart M. Corning's support of that
action.
We do not agree with DR.. Gannon's
assertion that Congress has said there
will be no intermingling. After care
full check of the record, we find no statu-
tory provision by Congress prohibiting
either an integrated school system or the
use of school facilities for whites and
Negroes together.
Mrs. Corkery, moreover, makes rather
shocking admission when she suggests
she can neither maintain discipline in
her school nor control an unruly and
noisy minority. unless she submits to its
most unworthy prejudices. 1t has been
amply demonstrated that where there
is a determined effort to curb an i'll
hammered minority. people generally
behave in a normally decent manner.
We look to our educators for leadership
in combating racism and the tensions
it gives rise to. We feel that the majority
Of the Board of Education has evaded
its responsibility by seeking refuge in a
law which to the best of our knowledge,
does not exist, and that it has also played
unconscionably upon fears which it has
itself helped to create.
