both groups sharing the expert
ence of living together
How low these standards are
was recently revealed by exam
nations. OF 4.l55 tenth grade
pupils enrolled last fall, 1904 OF
them had reached only a sixth
grade or under level in reading;
that of 1919 tenth grade pupils,
,798 had reached only a sixth
grade or under level in arithme-
tic. The school authorities re-
fused to break these figures down
as between white and Negro
children. But, is that neces-
sary to form the proper conclu-
sion?"
Asked for comment on the
Eastland charge about the Presi-
dents grandchildren, the White
House explained:
Maj. John EiSenhower's son.
Dwight David II. 7. and daugh-
ter Barbara Anne. s. attended
the Fort Belvoir post school for
a short time last fall but were
transferred several months ago
to the st. Agnes Episcopal
School in Alexandria. Susan
Elaine. 4. is now attending the
Fort Belvoir nursery school.
There are at least two colored
children in Susan Elaine's room,
according to a spokesman at Fort
Belvoir.
There is only a small number
of colored pupils in the post
schools, however. All three Ell
senhower grandchildren attend a
biracial post Sunday school. the
spokesman added.

Stern Resistance Urged
By Senator EustIund

COLUMBIA, S. c., Jan. 81 up.
The South Carolina Associa-
ton of Citizens Councils was told
by Senator Eastland. Democrat
of Mississippi, last night that
stern resistance" is the "only
course open to the South" as a
result of the United States Su-
Ipreme Court decision against
segregated public schools.
Senator Eastland addressed a
crowd that filled the Columbia
Township Auditorium we'll beyond
its $500 capacity. He was APP
jplauded loudly and frequently
! Senator Eastland, introduced
by Senator Thurmond. Democrat
of South Carolina. asserted that
the resistance inspired by the
councils in Southern States has
spread all over the United
States The councils have main
Itenance of segregated schools as
one objective.
Calling for a united Southern
front. Senator Eastland said
Southern people are right leg
ally and morally" in the issue.
The South must take the Of
Tense he maintained, and see
that it gets its side of the case to
every section Of the country. He
said public funds must be used tc
combat what he called a flood OF
propaganda directed against the
South's stand and traditions by
the National Association for the
Advancement Of Colored People
backed by church groups, racial
organizations, labor unions ano
liberal groups of all shades"

Other hasty improvements for
the Queens visit include about

The Office of Senator Eastland
Democrat of Mississippi. yester-
day made public the following
excerpts from speech prepared
for delivery last night in Co.
lumbia, S. c., before the South
Carolina Association Of White
Citizens Councils.
"A concerted attempt is being
made to suppress the truth of
what is going on in the Wash
ington school system.
President Eisenhower prom
ised that the Washington schools
would be a laboratory to demon
strate to the world how easily
and effectively indignation and
democracy would work. Presi-
dent Eisenhower's own grand
children have been removed
from a system that permits in
tegrated schools and placed in a
private segregated Episcopal
school in Alexandria. Va.
"They boosted that Washing
ton schools would be an example
of how good racial indignation
would be. Now they do every
thing possible to hide their
example and secrete the hideous
facts.
I'm a recent meeting of the
city Commissioners in Washing
ton, one Commissioner charged
that promotions in the District
of Columbia city schools were
made by weight and poundage.
To this. the superintendent of
schools replied that it was not
true that promotions in the Dis
trict of Columbia schools are by
size but it is true that promo
tional standards from one class
to another will have to be
lowered to accommodate the
average.
Both Negro and white teach
ers admit there is definite low
ering of standards in the inte-
grated schools. The white chill
dren are being pulled down to
the intelligence level of the
Negroes A Negro principal said
