The Editor OF The jackson Advocate
Restates His Views On SEGREGATION

During the past few days, one of our great daily
contemporaries following it's usual bent has been giving
mention the editor of the Jackson Advocate day.
Radical Negro Leader and in the next few days
ontspoken advocate of segregated Schools Great
ing result picture of the editor that has become
rather difficult to reconcile.
AS regard to the term radical Negro Leader we
say here have said before that Mississippi is
going to work of its present difficulties and the
to be confined to the limited opportunities of the local
level, long Negro whose thinking and speaking
does harmonic with the status quo antebeum is
branded as radical Negro Leader"
Having written from time to time in what we have
been reminded being great profusion of logic the
subject of segregation, and more recently the sub
ect of the recent action of the United States Supreme
Court anent the school segregation it perhaps
natural result of the provocative nature of what
have said that there those who have been tempted
to interpret our views; and in to suit their
own ends.
In an effort to be less provocative here to be under
STOOD and to make meaning clear say that the
Editor of the Jackson Advocate is and always has
been favor of the abolition of all forms of racial segre
cation by law.
AS has already been said here the editor of the
Jackson Advocate backs the decision of the Unit
ed States Supreme Court aboshng segregation in the
public Schools and is firm in the belief that the future
unfolds will to be the best thing that has
happened for Mississippi ard the rest of the South both
the Negro and the White People.
In regard to the abolition of segregation by law,
however despite the provocative nature of the cOncu
that Negro is not segregated is when he is in the
pany of White People, and that the sole aim of the Negro
in seeking the abolition of segregation is that of mixing
and mingling with White People
In regard to the abolition of segregation in the public
school, with reference limited to the grade schools
despite the provocative nature of the conclusion
going to hold to view that because the Negro
munites in Mississippi have become we'll established and
defined under the impact of segregation there should be
public school in each such community for the children
of that community and with segregation by law abolish

The Unthinking Liberal

FIRST let me say that am not talking politics. am
not referring to any political theory called liberalism
am using the first definition in the dictionary which is
ANY who advocates liberty of thought speech or
action"
The trouble is that too many liberals while advocat-
ing freedom of thought-dont do any thinking them
selves.
They leap to arms the moment any one says his or
her freedom has been attacked without stopping to
find out first whether not it was So and second
whether or not the outcrier isn't trying to step the
freedom of someone else.
They are very much like Thyssen and his fellow in
dustraists who welcomed Hitler to power because he
talked of keeping the ndustriasts on top negecting
entirely to mention that he meant to be top of the
industrialsts!
These unthinking liberals let other people do their
thinking for them, accepting phrases facts genera
cations as dogma and ideas ideals.
The unthinkng liberal advocates liberty of speech
but he doesn't avail himself of that liberty and talk of
the things in which he believes for which he stands
He just defends those who trying destroy the very
system which gives them that freedom
The unthinkng liberal advocates liberty of action
but ne does not act Maybe you think we had record
turnout this last election? Compare it with the number
of possible voters and you'll see what mean.
But it was said far better than can by General
Omar Bradley former Chief of Staff This is how he put
it: Our danger lies not so much in fifth column whose
enmity is avowed It lies in first column of wemean-
ing American citizens first column of menwho are one
hundred percent Americans in their daily proesations
and ten percent citizens in their daily routine of neglect
If that isn't straight talk, then never heard any
The unthinking liberal is danger to liberty The
right to think implies the responsibility to think for
t seve e. ana to nnf Inc rs to speak implies
fore speak The right to act implies the responsibility
to act for the common good.
To be liberal means = and again quote the first
definition in the dictionary possess or manifest
free and heart" That is excelent-but let us
be generous to the good first Let not be unthinng
liberals

ed, all other things being equal such school with moth
ing but Negro children, taught by Negro teachers, is
longer segregated school but American school,
and just much American school filled with
nothing but White Children, and taught only by White
Teachers.
Now that the United States Supreme Court has made
its decision despite the belcose remarks of certain
present spokesman the subject it would be we'll that
find new words to replace such phrases maintaining
Segregated Schools" and Separate but equal schools
with their implications of force and compliment the
most bitter elements of segregation by law which finds
no honest support among Negroes anywhere.
Viewing the future of the state in the light of the
decision of the United States Supreme Court the greatest
need for the getting together of Negro and White
People for the discussion and working out the conditions
at the local level Nothing is being accomplished with
crowd of White People in meeting somewhere talking
about Negroes; and crowd of Negroes somewhere in
a meeting talking about White Folks
new and better day for Mississippi is waiting for
the meeting together of it's Negroland White People

Book On ationaI Segregation
Published BY University Of NC.

A new book, titled "The Negro
and the Schools" was released
Monday by the University of North
Carolina Press. The new volume
is said to give an unbiased picture
of educational segregation in the
United States.
A team of As scholars from var
ious sections of the nation was or
ganized last summer when the
school segregation cases before the
Supreme Court became more en-
phatic, to investigate every aspect
of the situation.
Harry S. Ashmore, an executive
newspaper editor in Arkansas, who
was born in South Carolina, evalu-
ated the findings of the group and

language.

the first publication of a series
which will show the complete find
ings of the research team. o. j..
Roberts, former associated justice

the Summer School, registration of

to significant problems of teachers
and school administrators.
The College will again cooperate
wit hthe State Department of Edu-
cation in providing a training pro-
gram for high school principals be-
yond the undergraduate level. A

ton with the State Department of
