What Of Their
Qualifications?

The Board OF Supervisors is
called 1.-THE governing body OF the
county. This body sets the tax
levy and decides how the money
shall be spent. 1t acts as an ad-
yisory body to the resident en-
gineer on the secondary road sy,
tenn. 1t passes regulations thai
have the force of local laws. Thu
prestige of office gives each men,
Der rather broad advisory pow
ers to other officers, and thai
same prestige gives them power
to speak to state agencies as the
representatives of the county. The
Board of Supervisors is, in fact
the governing body" of county
The supervisors are the most
important of all the county Of
ficers. The duties of the treasurer
for example, are prescribed by
law. The chief requirement OF
that office is a workable knoWl-
edge OF bookkeeping. She chief re
auirement Of good supervisor
on the other hand, is good bust
ness sense. He passes on matters
that require judgment. If he has
it, the county profits; if he does
Mt, the county suffers. He has the
power to exercise good sense fol
the welfare of the whole county
In addition, he should have q
reasonably good appearance, tact,
and wide general knowledge.
X x Il
Without reflection on the mem
bers of our present Board, who
are for the greater part excellent
gentlemen, we should elect mer
of the highest standards to the
Board of Supervisors. We should,
seek the men of highest judgment
and integrity and draft them fol
the posts. If we do not. we shall
have cheated ourselves. Any com
rnunity will have for its public
servants those who are about the
level of its average citizenship.
Decidedly, a bodily defect Or the
need for little stipend each
month are poor qualifications on
which to elect member of 'the
governing body"

The Road TO Peace
rom The Oklahoma Black Dispatch

From The Oklahoma Black Dispatch
Frankly we feel our state department
should give more and serious attention to
the Chinese proffers of peace. How can we
ever challenge them as to their good inten-
tons unless we agree to sit down around the
council table and find out what they have to
say, and allow the Oriental conferees to spell
out In clear language the basis upon which
they will agree to cease hostilittes. American
craftsmanship processes to want peace and
if we have genuine and sincere desire for
international tranquility we should explore
every avenue presenting itself allegedly
pointing towards cooling the passions of
men.
The Chinese have. however, clearly stat
ed the basis upon which they would enter
into discussions. Their formula for peace
rests in debate leading to the withdrawal of
United Nations troops from Korea and For
mosa and a seat In the United Nations.
There's not much chance to argue we do
not know what their plans are, or what the
Chinese have in mind. The issue rests in our
willingness or unwillingness to discuss these
three questions 1t Is possible around the
council table Premier Chou En-lai
and his advisors could be per-
suaded to agree to a peace program includ-
ing only portion of this agenda. If, on the
other hand, American craftsmanship has
decided already that not one single inch will
be given on any of these issues there is Of
course no necessity to discuss peace. The die
has been cast. The inferno of war stares us
In the face.
But we believe before Dean Acheson
and Warren Austin go too far they should
ponder well the attitude the nations in West
ern Europe are taking on these questions.
There is grave danger that the hitherto solid
front exhibited at all times by the Atlantic
Pact nations may disappear. British Foreign
Secretary Ernest Bevin has already said out
loud he believes the resolution branding
China as an aggressor nation is froth with
grave dangers, and the speech made in the
British parliament by Atlee last week ind-
Gates clearly England does not intend to go
along with the United States in this proposal.
Unless great care Is taken at this moment
the Truman administration might find it.

BY EARL

In observing few highlights in Georg-
las state egslature-which is in session at
this writing-we find its governor still on
the job. Governor Herman Talmadge and his
hackers are, according to recent release,
proposing and supporting legislation that
would keep separate schools for white and
Negro students, unfolding tradition of
people who thought they were superior to
others. Georgias constitution states, "sepa-
rate schools shall be provided for the white
and colored races" Most of us who are
familiar with the Georgia governor are
not at all surprised at the present attitude
taken by him on the public schools of his
state.

would have been the target of ridicule, To-
day eolored and whites are going to the
states foremost institution without and mis-

The State has taxed the people to the
limit, and are still wrangling in the legis-
lature over plans and new things to tax to
meet the deficit in education. But still 1t is
trying to keep up two separate ana us
tinct systems when our wealth per capt."
does not allow funds enough to keep up one
system on a par basis. 1t seems to us Nia'
if Van Dalsem wanted to improve the peo-
pie he represents and help toward worias
peace, he could introduce bill toward .he
making of democracy work. He could tell the
people how their money could be utilized
without any additional expenses to give the
white and the colored better system OF
education. Irrespective to how preJuoleeo

People are waking up. They are beginning

when expenses get too heavy, brains pegin 10

itself out of existence. But each day it stays
we are going farther from our goal OF an

We feel that If Arkansas has any man In

Arkansas boys are dying on foreign battle

lauded and praised to the high heavens II
he would introduce bill In the present
