the Negro child in a segre-
gated system. Moreover, it
is the opinion of the Social
Scientists that it is not DOS
sible for the white child to
receive the best education in
a segregated system.
Ours is a common demo-

In such a system will insure
for us all a future of which
we can be as proud as of the
abolition of slavery and child
labor, woman su f frage,
equal educational opportuni-
ties for women, and the in
stitution of the public
schools themselves.
Time will prove that our
fears have no foundation in
fact just as has been proved
by the augmentation of
previous Court decisions.
Segregation breeds fear;
and when the barriers of
segregation are at last re-
moved from American life,
we will wonder why we fear
ed at all. We, therefore, call
upon the people of the south
and the nation to strive with
good will and honest intent
to implement the Courts de-
cision. 1t is our firm and
unanimous belief that the
experimentation of the deci-
sion will strengthen the
south and the nation moral
ly, economically, and spirit
ually. We, as Negro citizens,
stand ready to cooperate
wholeheartedly in the pro-
gressive fulffllment of these
democratic detectives.

tive effort IN every com
munity to plan on the local
level the implementation of
the decision. But, the plan
ming should be done in good
faith and with an honest de-
sire to implement the deci-
sion rather than scheming
to circumvent it.
The action of adults who
incite students to riot or en-
courage them to demon
strate in opposition to un-
segregated schools is to be
strongly condemned. Negro
and white C h ildren have
played together in the south
for decades upon decades.
They have no innate anti
pathy toward each other.
The Courts decision
makes possible a single
school system with the OBJ
portunity for the people in
the region to marshall their
educational resources and to
develop a philosophy that
brings to education general
ly a new perspective, and
, to the nation a new spirit.
This cannot be done in a
dual system of education.
Let it be clearly understood
that we are not pleading for
Negroes alone. We are con-
cerned about the best edu-
cation that can be made
available to every child in
the south. In our concern
for equal and improved edu-
cational opportunities f O r
every southern child, we do
not overlook the strenuous
economic effort required.We
are aware of the south's re-
sponsibility for providing
funds needed to raise the
level of educational oppor-
tunity for every southern
child. We, therefore, strong
ly endorse and support fede-
raj aid to education in order
that the per capita expendi-
ture in the south may be
brought up to a high nation
al average.
We want the white child
to have the best and we
want the Negro child to have
the best. 1t is the opinion
OF the Supreme Court that
there cannot be equality of

trary to the fundamental
sense of fair play of the
American people.
Negro educators should
not and cannot afford to be
a party to any plan design
ed to nullify the Courts de-
cision. To do this would be
tantamount to sharing in a
plan to destroy the very ia
brio of our Constitutional
Government. We regret that
some public officials have
sought to persuade Negro
educators and other leaders
to evade the decision by
agreeing to voluntary seq
gregation. This cannot be
decently done; and such per-
sons who agree to this will
not be respected even by the
officials seeking such COM
mitment or compromise of
principle.
Good craftsmanship in a
democracy requires that al
segments of the population
participate in the implement
tation of the Courts deci.

Germ. The idea is still toe
prevalent that the issues i'm.

ment the Supreme Court de-
cision and offering whole
hearted cooperation in the
attainment of this objective,
60 Negro educators from Id
southern states and the Dis
trict of Columbia set forth
their views on this subject.
The two-day meeting, call
ed by Is Negro educators
and sponsored by the Phelps
Stokes Fund, was held in
Hot Springs, Ark, October
1921. .ss,sg
A statement of the edu-
Gators follows:
We, a group of southern
Negro educators, represent
ing Ia southern states and
the District of Columbia,
have assembled here in Hot
Springs, Ark, to express our
collective point of view with
respect to the Supr e m e
Courts decision, May II,
1854, declaring segregation
in the public schools uncon-
stltutional. We believe that
by virtue of the position
which we occupy in Ameri-
can life we are to express
our views.
We welcome the decision
and look upon it as another
significant milestone in the
nations quest for a demo-
cratic way of life and in the
Negroes long struggle to be-
come a first class citizen.
The Supreme Courts deci-
sion is a part of an evOlu-
tlonary process which has
been going on in the south
and in the nation for a long
time. The decision was not
a sudden leap out of the
American tradition. 1t was
the right and moral thing to
do. Moreover, it was a next
logical and inevitable step in
the context of our democrat
ic development. The move
ment toward full democracy
has resulted in the abolition
of the white primary, re-
moval of the curtain in the
dining car, abolition of Sc
gregation in interstate
travel, equalization of teach
ers salaries in most areas
of the south, the matricula-
ton of Negroes in southern
universities, and the inte-
grafton of Negroes and
whites in all of the armed
forces.
We hail the decision again
because it dramatically dis
tinguishes our way of life in
a democracy from that in
such totalitarian countries
as Nazi Germany and Com
munist Russia. Here in the
U. S. great social wrongs
can be and are righted with
out bloodshed and without
revolutionary means. This
was not possible for the Jew
ish people in Nazi Germany
nor is it now possible for
in Communist Rus
STA. But it is possible in the
u. S. because we have a Con-
stitution which guarantees
and justice to all
and a body of citizens who
are committed to the ideal
of human brotherhood. The
Constitution is our sovereign |
authority. To evade or dis
credit it is to destroy our
government. Negro Ameri-
,ans have never given way
to despair nor have they
sought relief from injustices

S4uhty 4OI OH. we take
pride in the fact that every
individual and organization
al effort we have made to
achieve complete citizenship
rights in American life has
been within the legal frame
work of the Federal Consti-
tuition. Our cause has al
ways been on the side of the
Constitution. The preamble
of the Constitution and the
ideals and principles of Ne
gro citizenship have been
Identical. We have never
had to apologize for unwil-
lingness or inability to adopt
or support its principles.
The Supreme Court was
not dealing solely with a To-
cal issue or with the issue of
whether Negro and white
children should attend the
same public school. World
leadership has been thrust
upon the u. S.. 1t became
Americas responsibility be-
fore and after World War
III not only to fight against
racism and aggression, but
to defend democracy in the
free world. Americas lead
ership in the world and not
alone the citizenship of fiji
teen million Negroes was at
stake. The nation cannot
consistently stand as leader
of the democratic forces of
the world and harbor the UNI
democratic practice of racial
segregation at home.
We are convinced that
there is fundamental sense
of fair play abroad in the
south. Southern people have
accepted previous decisions
OF the Supreme Court and
the social changes resulting
therefrom, such decisions
as the abolition of the white
primary, and the admission
of Negroes to white univer-
sites. We. believe that the
south will likewise accept
the decision of May H..
We gladly note that integra-
ton in public schools involv-
ing both students and teach
ers is already working well
IN some schools of the south.
We are heartened by the ex-
pressions of the southern
press speaking favorably of
the decision. and by the
fact that several church
bodies and a nu m Der of
, church men and women in
/ the south are on record as
I approving it. Even before
the Supreme Court handed
down this decision some
southern educational institu-
tions, Protestant and Catho-
lie, public and private, had
| opened their doors to Ne
groes. 1t is our hope that
all of the colleges and uni
versities of the south, Negro
and white, will Immediately
implement the spirit of the
Courts decision by accept
ing, irrespective of race, all
qualified students who seek
admission.
1t is m o st unfortunate
that preoccupation with the
co-educational implication of
the decision has obscured
the question of the quality
of education for all children.
In two-thirds of the u. S.,
co-education of the races
has been going on for many
decades with no untoward
effect. There need be no i'll
effect in the south.

Everyone realizes the soft years are
nothing more than sweet memories Sales
manship has become the determining
factor in the gross revenue of merchants.
Not only has the craftsmanship theory
been applied to individual businesses
also applies to communities. Every COM
munity is making its bid for new trade. 1t
is making every effort to attract people
through activities sponsored by the mer-
chants association.
An executive secretary would have
a difficult task in reviving the interest of
the local merchants and promoting full
cooperation; however, it has been done in
other communities where there is less civic
pride than here. 1t has proved beneficial
to communities that are inferior to ours.
Must we sit back and watch the other
communities go forward when our poten-
tials as shopping center are as great as
any in this section of the State?
The time is near when the Merchants
Association should give serious considera-

stead of placing emphasis on only one
season of the year.
We would welcome a move to get the
train out of the station and on the track
to greater harmony among the merchants.

from the house and into the yard.

The instigator of the practical

His unsuspecting companion
makes hasty retreat through
the tobacco fields while the spec

the glory of their successful prac-
teal joke.
Without fail-it always takes
an hour or two to locate the vic
tim who has run deep into the
woods to avoid being peppered
by the blast from the irate hus-
bands shotgun.
1t is the speed with which the
victimized lovers get started that

that they seek their fame at track

1t would be wise move if the Mer-

secure an executive secretary. Although
it would not be new step, since there
have been several persons employed in

shown in promoting the business growth
of the community.
AS it now stands - the Merchants

disinterest in the Associations activities

At the present time, the Merchants

Yam Festival. 1t is the greatest drawing
card. New faces are seen in town during
the Festival but little effort is made to
cultivate these people in so far as shop

Why do people go to other towns to
shop instead of coming to Tabor City? The
answer lies in the fact that other towns
have done some promotional work which
has made their town more attractive to

the sickness hit.
That is. if you could muster
onoueh strength to get out.
