IN Explanation By
Sen. John J. Williams
Senior Solon Explains The Supreme Court De-
cision As 1t Affects Segregation In The
Public Schools

This is not an attempt to discuss
the question of whether there
should or should not be segrega-
ton in the public schools. It is
merely an attempt to explain what
can ard cannot be done under the
law by the advocates Of either
position.
The Constitution of the state of
Delaware provides that there shall
be separate but equal educational
facilities for the different races,
and for the past several genera
JiOns under this constitutional pro-
vision there has been a segregated
school system in the state of Del
aware.
Early this year the Supreme
Court of the United States, in rul-
ing upon this question, rendered
UNANIMOUS decision that it would
be a violation of the Constitution
of the United States for any state
to enforce segregation in the pub
lie schools. This action by the
Supreme Court automatically nulli-
fed provisions in every state con-
stitution which provided for segre-
cation.
Personally, I felt that the nine
men comprising the Supreme
Court of the United States took
upon themselves too great a re-
spOnsibility in determining so i'm
pOrtant a social question for one

Accidents Are Also Re

In the first nine months Of this
year state police have used their
four radar sets in 5,100 arrests
of motorists on charges Of speed
ing.
In all Of 1868, when the use of
radar was just being started, only
1926 arrests we're credited to radar.
State police records show ~
more accidents up to September 80
this year compared with last year
-an increase of One-third of a per
cent-but these include 130 acci-
dents reported by county and town
police which we're not submitting
reports to state police in 1858.
Hence there has actually been a
net reduction in accidents in ter
ritory patrolled by state police de-
spite increased mileage travelled

to Col Harry S. Shew. superinten-

1t John P. Ferguson Of the acci-

months this year there were 1886
accidents in the state outside of
Wilmington and in the correspond

standing Features OF
Recent Days.

Highlights Of the past week in
the controversy on integration
were first a mass meeting last
Sunday at the Harrington airport.
Bryant Bowles, the principal
speaker at the rally, was delayed
from making his address there
until dark, due to being arrested
and arraigned before Judge Arley
B. MCGEE in Dover and Magistrate
Morris Groverman IN Milford. Mr..
BoWles was arrested on two
charges Of conspiracy to violate
Delaware school laws, and was re-
leased on $4,000 bail in both
courts, bond was produced in both
counties by friends.
On Tuesday the spotlight was
focused on Georgetown where the
Court In Chancery held a hearing
and after listening to lawyers on
both sides Of the controversy, as
to whether or not the 10 Negro
children should be readmitted to
Milford school on Lakeview Ave-
nue., after having been removed
from the rolls BY the newly con-
stituted Milford School Board, re-
served decision in the matter un-
til some latter date.

hundred sixty million Americans.
My own personal opinion is that
this question should have been left
with each of the fOrty-eight states
to solve; however, we are now
confronted with the situation
where the Supreme Court has act
ed, and their decision is the su-
preme law of the land, and as
law-abiding citizens we have no
alternative other than to uphold
the law.
States, counties, and communi-
ties, however, will have a lawful
right to delay the effective date of
implementing this decision as long
as such delay is not in conflict with
orders of the state courts.
There are those, who are in dis
agreement with this decision and
who oppose Indignation in our pub
lie schools, who raise the question,
why doesn't the Governor or the
Members of Congress do something
to stop the enforcement of this
Order?"
The fact of the matter is that a
Governor unanimously supported
by the Legislature Of his state
cannot override a decision of the
Supreme Court of the United
States.
Furthermore, a unanimous vote
