Teachers Needed
(FrOm: The New York Times)

Each year. it would seem, the shortage of teachers
becomes more acute The situation is viewed with regret
by educational organizations at their annual meetings.
suggestions made regarding the need for increased
salaries and vigorous attempts to recruit capable
young people for teacher education plans are laid for
special adjustments and other temporary means to al
situation has grown in the elementary field and
the shortage is spreading to the secondary school field
There is no doubt that something must be done and
done rapidly if we wish children to receive the edu-
cation to which they entitled Certainly better sal
aries are needed. The time would to be ripe too
Tor more active campaign of educating prospective
candidates for the teaching profession in the values
which the profession affords values which read
ly discernble the surface.
1t would be useful to survey the actual conditions
under which teachers work and to compare those cond
tons with those found in other occupations Emphasis
should be placed the security aspects of the posi-
ton the possibilities for advancement the values in
herent in job well DONE Teaching is profession that
compensates its practitioners in direct ratio to the
amount of effort put into doing good job Professional
recognition grows in direct ratio the professional ap
preach made to the position The public that pays the
bill would perhaps be willing to go along with in
creased salary demands if it understood exactly what it's
funds bought.
In short possible solution of the teacher short
age may be found in showing prospective teachers the
values in the field and at the time pointing out to
taxpayers the values they in direct proportion
to the support they offer their educational systems.
With better understanding of what is involved would
come more active support on both sides.

Warning On Colonialism
(FrOm The New York Times)

One factor which bedeviled the Indochina situation
and contributed to what Premier France calls
the cruel armstice terms the issue of cooniaism
Because of French delay in granting genuine ndepend
to the Indochinese states this issue could be ex
plotted by the Communists to stir up revolt in the name
of nationasm for the imposition of a Communist CO.
onasm 1t also kept at arms length the United States
and prevented some Asian nations still entranced by
their struggle against Western coloniaism from taking
determined stand against the far and far more
dangerous coonialism spreading from the East
The West need not apologize for it's colonial record
1t brought light and civilization many dark corners of
the world and when the time ripe it gave complete
freedom and independence to 6000O0OOO people at the
same time that the Communists ensaved like number
But the lndochina story is warning to the West
to act in time to eliminate assuage the spots of
the remaining colonial system This does mean simply
throwing off responsibility for dependent peoples who
are not yet able to sustain either independence or self
government. Nor can it the creation of power
vacuums for the profit of the COMMUNISTS But it does
call for remedial wherever and to the extent
to which they can be applied
This involves both domestic and international &C
ton Domestic action is most urgent in French North
Africa and it is gratifying that Premier Mendes-France
has pledged himself to reforms long overdue In the field
OF international action the most regrettabe and most
easily rectted spots the tiny French and Portu
guese enclaves in India which make the Indians red
haever their historic origins these alien centers have
no place in modern India.

Mississippi Negro.
1t appears therefore from the press reports that the
meeting last Friday with all of it's great possibilities
failed to reveal the thinking and attitude of the vast
majority of responsible Negro leaders in the state
between Indignation and immediate school building
program because of difference arising out of the
of the word segregation.
While the meeting last Friday appears to have failed
in it's high purpose, when looked at in the light of the
press reports of the statement of Governor White,
better day for Mississippi still awaits the time when
sponsibe white and Negro leaders sit down to-
gether mutual respect and confidence to discuss and
work out the problems of the state.

Governor White And Negro Leaders

According to press reports Governor Hugh White,
following the meeting which included group of Negro
Leaders here last Friday with the Governor and
bers of the Legal Education Advisory Committee ex-
pressed himself being through with the Negro lead
ers of the state because of the failure of the more able
Negroes in the group to take stand for segregation in
the public schools.
Making allowance for the possibility that the state
ment OF the Governor in to this matter as reported
In the press may be greatly distorted experience
which have undergone with unhappy results during
the past several weeks certain that any feeling
that the Governor may have against the Negro leaders
attending the meeting would be greatly reduced if not
altogether forgotten, if he could understand that in
these times any Negro who out for segregation
Is subject to rdicule and vifcaton the that
applied to white when he is branded as "Nigger
Lover"
There is one thing also that is definitely evident and
that is the fact that Negroes may have an entirely diff
erent meaning for what u.s. is not segregation to that
OF white people, but it is beyond any doubt that segre
cation is the most bitter word and has the most bitter
meaning of any word in the English language for the

And second, they are part of the

Veterans will receive assistance
