Truman Back In
Form Again
BY LOUIS LAUTIER

WASHINGTON, D. C. (NNPA)
- President Truman was again
his cocky self as he faced re-
porters at White House press
conference last Thursday.
In contrast with his previous
conference on April II, the day
before General of the Army Doug
las Macarthur addressed the con-
gress, Mr.. Truman invited ques-
tions on the Macarthur contro-
versy which has split both white
and colored people.
Mr.. Truman opened his press
conference on April II by telling
the reporters that his position on
Far Eastern affairs was we'll
known and that General MacAr-
thur was coming the next day to
state his, and, therefore, he would
make no comments on the Far
Eastern situation. He added that
there was no use of reporters ask
ing him any questions on that SUBJ
ject.
In contrast, Mr.. Truman opened
his press conference last Thursday
by quoting to the reporters
paragraph from his speech of April
II to the American people, after
ne had relieved General Macarthur
from his commands:
THE Communist side must now
choose it's course of action. The
Communist rulers may press the
attack against us. They may take
further action which will spread
the conflict. They have that choice,
and with it the awful responsible
ity for what may follow. The Com
munists also have the choice of
peaceful settlement which could
lead to a general relaxation of ten

Sions in the Far East The decision
is theirs because the forces of the
United Nations will strive to limit
the conflict if possible"
Asked whether he thought the
senatorial inquiry into Far East
foreign policy by members of the
Senate Foreign Relations and
Armed Services Committees should
be behind closed doors or open, Mr..
Truman replied that was the busi-
ness of the senate.
When a reporter remarked that
Major General Courtney, General
MacArthur's secretary, had said
General Macarthur hadn't the
faintest idea why he was relieved
OF his commands, Mr.. Truman said
everybody else knows why. The
presidents statement announcing
the relief of General Macarthur
from his commands said he was
relieved because the general was
unable to give his wholehearted
support" to the policies of the
United States and the United Ma
tons as to the conduct of the Ko-
rean war.
Asked about General MacAr-
thurs status = whether he was
subject to assignment or whether
he was off duty, Mr.. Truman ex-
planned that at his suggestion the
congress passed a law creating
a permanent lifetime job for five
star generals and admirals of
World War II. He said they were
exactly on the same status as Cen
eraT John J. Pershing after World
War I and were subject to recall.
"Have you anything in mind for
General Macarthur" a reporter
asked.
Not at the present time, the
president replied amid laughter.
There have been reports that
General Matthew B. RidgeWay,
who succeeded to General MacAr-
thurs commands in the Far East,
has been informed that he could
bomb Manchurian bases if neces-
sary.
Mr.. Truman said he had no COM
ment to make on that statement.
Asked whether he had any OBJ
jections to the publication of
documents relating to his confer

SCHOOL DISSERTATION
AND NEGRO TEACHERS

month"; that should shed some
light on the whole question. The
issue boilS down to this: Can
Negro teachers be dismissed simply
because the segregated schools in
which they have been teaching
are to be abandoned? Despite mis-
leading newspaper reports to the
contrary, the recent opinion Of
the Attorney General does not
clarity the matter. Talk of dis
charge for reasons of efficient
conduct and administration of the
schools" raises another point
which only a court can decide: Is
it inefficient conduct or admin
istration" for a Negro teacher to
teach a mixed or colorless class?
Lawyers advising the teachers con-
tend that these dismissals are based
on race alone and believe that the
court will rule that such discrim-
ination has no legal basis and that
qualified Negro teachers are fully
protected by the Teacher Tenure
Law. Such a ruling would presum-
ably establish the fact that
teachers are employed to teach in
a district (not in a specific school,
that being a matter of assignment
after they are employeO and that
there is nothing automatically in
efficient Tin conduct or admin
istrat1on") in the teaching of nom
Negro pupils by Negro teachers.
Such a ruling would, of course,
raise another problem: Will school
boards = faced with the necessity
of retaining qualified Negro
teachers = be willing to end seq
regation? Under the new law,
school boards may segregate
groups of pupils; there is moth
ing to compel them to end such
segregation (although, on the basis
of a recent Federal Court ruling,
there is a strong possibility that

The end result will, however,
be the same: Segregation of

Jobs. Someone has said that the

be added the qualifying thought
that, in this progression, we ad-

Last weeks SUN contained an
Associated Press dispatch on ac-
ton taken by school boards
throughout the state to end seq
regation of Negro pupils. 1t pre-
sented most of the facts but left
a few vital questions unanswered;
among these is the matter Of
Negro teachers in communities
eliminating segregated schools.
Tucson, the states second larg-
est city and school district, has
announced that it plans to retain
all Negro teachers when it ends
segregation next fall. They will be
distributed in various schools of
the district in approximately the
same ratio as Negro students, and
one of the schools will continue
to have Negro principal. Mariana,
small district near Tucson, has
ended segregation. discharging one
Negro teacher and retaining the
other.

however, Negro teachers have been

they were hired to teach in all.

ence with General Macarthur on
Wake Island, Mr.. Truman said
he was not in position to answer
that question at present.
A reporter remarked that Cen
eral Whitney had said all of the
top military commanders were in
agreement with General MacAr-
thur. Mr.. Truman replied that he
had no way of knowing whether
that statement was true or not.
He added that when he came back
from Wake Island he made Whit
ney major general.
aside from his appearances be-
fore Congress, are there any re-
strictions on General MacArthur's
utterances? a reporter asked.
No, Mr.. Truman replied. He
said General Macarthur is in the
United States now and he can
say what he pleases. The president
added that he had strings on the
general but he did not intend to
