Vote Against The Southern Regional Education Plan

of the southern regional education plan
1t was to be an educational savior for
both Negro and white graduate and pro
fessional education. This was "a poor ex-
cuse yet an effort to save the face of the
plan. 1t is an accepted fact that the South
IS economically poor and likewise educa-
tionally poor. Yet it is a known fact that
one reason why the South is educational
ly poor is because of it's undemocratic pat
tern of segregated schools.
Southern States should use all available
funds to develop one sound graduate and
professional program rather than fever
ishly pouring funds into Negro State in
situations to develop overnight universe
ties in an attempt to keep Negroes out of
State tax supported institutions. 1t is pre-
posterous to see any need of the State of
Virginia to send Negro graduate students
any other place in the South for any type
of training when the funds used in setting
up the weak and limited graduate work at
Virginia State College could have been
Used to improve and further develop the

plan as her educational funds can be put

ton supported by public funds can deny
admittance to any citizen of that State

develop and maintain good race relations
the State officials, educators and pelit-
clans must stop aligning themselves with
States and persons who are known by rec
ord to hinder every progressive step in
race relations and the bringing of true
American democracy to the South. All
Virginians must vote against the Southern

vote against the Southern Region
Education plan is a must for all intelligent
voters. Any citizen who wishes to see
American Democracy become an active
reality must indicate the same on Novem-
Der that they are completely against the
plan. 1t is untimely for such vote whe.
so many minds and interests are divided
on the national political issue. The aver
age man in the street, Negro or white,
does not understand the plan, its back
ground, purpose and ultimate detectives.
State educators or politicians have not Civ
en- the public any information on the plan
The plan inspite of the arguments by it's
proponents was never needed and was
born and conceived in Southern sin. 1t Was
the brain child of the prejudiced, frus.

When southern state universities were

How Can You Tell?

Another question: How do we
know you are teaching the truth"
How can we tell you from a false
prophet? Jesus gives a simple an
swer: You can tell tree from it
fruits. People who criticize Chris
tianity should keep this point in
mind. There Is q great deal in
"Christianendom'' which is not
good. But Christendom is not
Christianity. Not even the church
is Christianity. Anything in the
church that ought not TO b. there.
we must set down against the ac-
count Of the church, not against
Christ. II the church is weak and
sinful it is because and so far as
she has failed to follow Jesus, not
because she has followed him. The
fruits Of Christ, of his heart, his
spirit, his teachings-these are
good fruit. And if any one is dis
posed to doubt that, let him fairly
answer this question: Where would
you rather live, in a community
in which the citizens were strange
ly like Jesus, or one in which they
were just the opposite?
The Tribune. [volume] (Roanoke, Va.) 1951-19??, 1952-10-25
Bible i'm a Nutshell

Some one might ask: Cant you
make your teaching simpler and
palmer? Could you put the whole
thing In a nutshell?" So Jesus gives
the Golden Rule G:1O, a single
sentence that has embarrassed the
ologian and plain Christian alike.
Jesus offers this as kind of sum-
mary of the Bible, for in his time
the Bible he had (our "Old Tesla
ment') was customarily called
1.-The Law and the Prophets. This
bothers the theologian because it
always scandalizes a scholar to
have everything put into one SEN
tence, and besides. theologians are
accustomed to finding great deal
more In the Old Testament than
the Golden Rule. 1t bothers the
common everyday Christian be-
cause when he looks at this SEN
,tsnce. he knows how right Mark
Twain was: Its not what I don't
understand IN the Bible that dis
turbs met US what do under
stand"

Is Not Faith Enough?

Another question: Isn't q single
act Of faith enough? II I believe
what I ought to believe, and if 1
honor Christ as Lord, isn't that
enough to make me a Christian?
Jesus offers a test of faith, as if
in answer to some such question.
1t isn't just believing; it isn't pay
ing honor to the name of Christ;
it isn't preaching In his name, it is
not even performing miracles. The
question that will be asked at the
Day of judgment is: Did you do
the viii of God?
The Tribune. [volume] (Roanoke, Va.) 1951-19??, 1952-10-25

One more question: Your teach
ing sounds interesting and is ideal
istic and all that, but Is il meant
for this world? WIN It work? Jesus
quite emphatically claims for his
teachings an absolutely practical
value. They are not for some New
er-never Land, they are not for
some other time, some other life.
They are not some radical upside
down topsy-turvy mess of peculiar
notions. They are the bedrock of
q life that will endure through
storms. Do you want to find out
whether these teachings and Id lis
OF Jesus will work? He invites one
and all to build their house of life
upon them. He does not promise
at any time that those who live by
his teachings viii be free from
trouble, sorrow, opposition, trag-
edy Storms come to all houses
alike. What ne does promise IL that
the life built here shall not fall.

WHY EBONY CHOOSES
STEVENSON FOR PRESIDENT
0.lL. &c
Reprinted from the October issue Of EBONY

OOmeCnlng mas occurred IN naClOnal pol
itics which does not allow us in good con-
science to stand aside and offer our bless
ings to all nominees as we did in 1948
w h EBONY commented editorially:
There is mighty little difference between
Dewey, Truman and Wallace when it
comes to the racial question. All three are
genuine friends of the Negro"
The same is not true in 1862. EBONY
believes that for the first time since 1910,
the Negro is faced with AN out-and-out
choice between two nominees who have
demonstrated clearly and Enthusiastically
that they stand at opposite poles on the
vital problems of the Negro. On the one
hand is candidate who has in his actions
and even in some of his words Gin his less
political-minded moments) defended and
upheld Jim Crow. On the other is an hon
est sincere liberal who has not just spok-
en- out against all forms of racial discrim-
nation but in every acid test has proven
himself fearless, fortnight friend of the
Negro
Ike Aud His Army Background
EBONY chooses this moment to depart
from its traditional nonpartisanship for
cost to the nation and to Negroes of an
administration led by a man whose quail
tications for the nations highest office is
AZ years of military training. We are gen.
uniely frightened by the prospect of
NT;dent who in 1948 testified before the
Senate Armed Services Committee that
Negroes are inferior and that the Army
was justified i'm it's Jim Grow practices. 1t
is noteworthy that at the time 800 New
England NAACP leaders Joined in blast
ing General Dwight D. Eisenhower and ex-
pressing Opposition, disgust, disapproval
and denial of the expressed statement of
the General relative to the uneducated
status of the Negro and his incaphbility
for Indignation in the armed forces
1t is not that we dc not like Ike, as a
warm, well-meaning personality but rath-
Ell that we are honesty apprehensive of
general in the White House, frightened
lest with military thoroughness he oblit-
crates all the many gains of the past 20
years, alarmed that the clock VIII be
turned back to wipe out the greatest era
of Negro advance in the history of Amer
ica
Stevenson Acts Rather Than Talks
Our most haunted fears are that some
egroes--misled by the strange shenani-
gans of some of our power-hungry race
politicos--will turn their backs on man
who has demonstrated Enthusiastically his
feeling and friendship for Negroes. Being
edited i'm Illinois, we here at EBONY have
had full and ample opportunity to observe
and test Governor Adlai Stevenson on the
race front. We know him ,as a man who
acts rather than talks. We have seen him
fight stalwartly for a state FEPC and lose
IN every legislative sess.on--simply be-
cause of Republican opposition. We saw
his ability to take direct, daring and cou-
rageous action when he called out the No
