set up new detection equipment and facili-
ties TO give warnings to those areas within
the hurricanes path. For years, Florida
home-owners. long accustomed to hur-
ricancs board up the windows and pro
ttct their houses and businesses to re-
markable degree during these midsummer
storms, which quite often include winds Of
more than n hundred miles an hour. Gen
orally by the time the hurricanes have
reached this far north their velocity has
been expended however, if the pattern Of
future hurricanes is to include the Central
Virginia area, the uncertainty Of farming
will be enhanced greatly.
From now through October, these
storms are likely TO threaten the Eastern
Seaboard. and even some parts Of the Gulf
Coast areas. One hopes that the Weather
Bureaus new detection equipment will pre-
vent the tragic loss Of life and property
experienced in 1854 The effects Of the 1854
hurricanes along the Eastern Seaboard are
still 10 be seen, especially on the seacoast
Perhaps nothing can be done to prevent the
sea from sweeping houses from their foun-
dations, but the loss Of life can certainly
be minmiZed by the new and better fore
casting and by the exercise Of caution by
those caught in the path Of the storms.
1t will be interesting to see if the
Weather Bureaus new devices and expand
ed facilities provided by Congress at "a
cost Of millions Of dollars will this year
prevent the tragedies of past years.

Governor Hodges speech was excellent.
1t is about five years too late The forces at
work in the nation are not concerned with
public education principally, they are de-
termlned to force indignation in every fab
rio of community life of the South inelud-
ing schools, churches employment hous-
ing, voting, transportation, public accom-
modations, etc. The full program can be
found in the NAACP'S publication, Tar
get for 1868" An appeal to reason such
as was issued by Governor Hodges, can have
but little effect, when reason has been dis
carded by the forces at work among our
people and by the highest court of the ma
ton
Unfortunately the issue is not integral
ed schools or public schools 1t is integral
ed races which will lead to no race The
public school system is merely the instru-
ment which is now under attack The is
sue Will be met four-Square now, or it will
be retreat after retreat. There is no temp
orlzlng.
Governor Hodges has performed a
service to the people of North Carolina in
making A statesmanlike appraisal of the
situation His address will be historic. His
future action to maintain a segregated
school system, within the law. in North
Carolina will be more lasting

Reason Abandoned

GOVERNOR l. L 7 II Err HODGES, of
North Carolina, made an appeal to the
citizens Of North Carolina, both white and
Negro, to establish voluntary segregation
Of pupils in the states public school sys-
TEN. His plea was eloquent and logical.
Pointing to the value Of the States public
schools, the development oyer a half cen
tury or more, he urged the policy Of volun-
tary segregation
Governor Hodges further stated that
unless "A voluntary system succeeds "the
State within the next year or SO will be
face to face with deciding the issue of
whether it shall have some form Of inte-
grated public schools or shall abandon its
public schools
Those who would force the decision, he
warned" will be responsible if in the choice
we lose the public school system for which
North Caroinians of both races have
fought so hard and find to our eternal sor-
row the personal racial bitterness which
North Carolinians avoided SO successful
ly"
His statewide speech by ado and
televison was heralded as d masterpiece Of
craftsmanship by most of the newspapers
and prominent citizens. But the next day,
eight Negro organizations in Durham is
sued Joint statement which in effect said
voluntary segregation Is unthnkable.

We are reminded of the words Of sew
eral famous financial tycoons, who claim
that they had to make money so that they
could get up into brackets where the com

The lesson to be learned is that once
