ties with Negro populations have
begun some Indignation" Mr..
Jones stated, Maryland is trying
with quiet determlnism to solve
the lntregation problem"
Hits Non-certification
Mr.. Guernsey attacked the
charge that Negro teachers are
poorly qualified to teach, often
made by segregationists. He said,
THE Overwhelming percentage of
non-certified teachers in Mont
gomery County are white. Only
five percent of the Negro teach
ers are non-certified."
The union official held, 1.-THE
assignment of Negro teachers to
formerly all-white schools didn't
give confidence that the Negro
teachers will be assigned on their
merit"
Mr.. Guernsey charged that no
Negro teachers were assigned to
formerly all-white secondary
schools, although some were
trained and experienced in junior
and senior high teaching. Mr..
Guernsey believes that Margaret
Jones, principal at Rocl1ville's
Rock Terrace School, "Would be
supervisor but her color is
wrong"
After Indignation has raised the
educational standards of the Ne
gro, Mr.. Guernsey stated, the
county must work to raise the
health and housing standards of
colored people.
Pushes Farm Bureau Plan
Mr.. Anderson asked a don't
hurry policy on school integra-
ton. He urged adoption of plan
proposed by the Montgomery
County Farm Bureau. The kin
dergartens and first grades would
be integrated each fall so that at
the end of II years the entire
school system would be desegre-
gated.
The former county agent
charged that Negro children are
as much as three years behind
white children Sin educational at
tainment." He held that the
problem classes" necessary to
help the Negroes catch up with
their white classmates if schools
were integrated would increase
the number of teachers and class
rooms by so percent.
Mr.. Anderson attacked white
people in favor of Indignation. He
stated, Il think some white in.
tegration leaders are agitators for
foreign causes"
He listed five types of white in
tegrationist: those more inter
ested in the programs of other
minority groups than they are in
the educational welfare of our
children;" those who want to see
public schools discontinued; those
who are ''in the program" for po-
