How To Help Neither And Harm Both
From: The Christian Science Monitor

The House Rules Committee has cleared the Kelley
schoolad bill for debate and action the floor The
administrations federal aid BILL introduced by Senator
Alexander Smith, is still before committee of the upper
chamber.
There are differences of some Importance between
the two But they of character which could
be reconced in conference Everybody knows however,
that the hurdle any schooad legislation must clear is
the menace of the Powell amendment This it is expect
ed will be offered from the floor by the representative
from New Yorks Harlem. A much less controversial
amendment-that of Mr. Uda of Arizona-has been
killed in committee So the crucial battle federal aid
likely will be fought in the House this coming week.
The Powell amendment would withhold federal aid
from any school district until could certify It's facilities
to be open to both This, PATIENTLY would WELD
the urgency of school aid lever to press for quick
school integration It's adoption sure to mean
blocking the whole program of relief for the nations
overcrowded classrooms either by coalition of opposing
forces or by Deep South fibuster in the Senate.
Mr. Powell and his hackers might say that such
ence more than their stubborn persistence. The
trouble with this argument is that the children of Am
erica would be the chief victims Inclusion of the Pow
ell amendment would deny them needed aid and would
hasten desegregaton not bit In fact it would worsen
the atmosphere in which children both white and Negro
must grow up.
The best solution appears to be to pass the Kelley
bill in the House and the Smith bill in the Senate, both
without amendment touching the question: and
to reconcile the conference Then leave the matter
of desegregaton the federal courts and the aid to
schooling to the educational authorities.

Rev. Martin Luther King And The
School Boycott

From over in San Francisco, where the NAACP is
holding its annual national convention word that
the Rev Martin Luther King leader of the Montgomery
Alabama bus boycott has suggested that Negroes start
boycott of the public schools in the South in order to
force integration of the schools.
In the first place, think there is evidence here
despite the halo of heroism and the national prominence
that has given the young preacher that he not
fully cOgnZant of all the forces and implications OF the
Montgomery bus boycott.
Among the important and significant facts
garding the Montgomery bus boycott is that fact that
the native Montgomery white people not too much
concerned about the bus boycott and suspicious
that it might be we'll founded fact that white people
with money to invest in Montgomery and in other parts
of Alabama would be glad to the Northern Utilities
Company give its franchise the bus lines could be
operated by Montgomery and Alabama people with
Montgomery and Alabama money
Calling upon Negroes in the South to boycott the
public schools in view of the success of the Mont
gomery bus boycott is something else again. and to is
in line with traditional saying, calling upon the
Negroes of the South to cut off their to spite their
face" For Negroes to boycott schools or at any
other time in the future would hurt nobody but Negroes
themselves and would certainly do harm at all to
anybody else
We note in the press reports that the Rev. King
said, That he has not had time to think the matter
through" something that hope he will take the time
to do before calling upon the Negroes of the South sup
port such program, program which would be given
very little sif any support among the thinking Negro
citizens of the South.

Racial Adjustment? Blind Alleys
From: The Christian Science Monitor

Confidence in the American peoples basic
and devotion to fair play leads to expect pro-
gressive solution of the nations racial problems We
would not at the moment undertake to chart detailed
for accommodation to the school desegrega
ton decision But may be useful to take quick look
at few attempted detOurs which are already showing
up blind alleys.
First is the reliance of many desegregationists on
mere legality 1t is strange that many people expect
ed Supreme Court decision two years od-t
turn in day the ngrained social pattern of one entire
section of the country.
On the other side we must count the bemusement of
many Southerners with interpositon This doctrine,
That the states have right to nterpose their power
protect citizens against the federal government, had
often been asserted and actually employed in cases
before the Civil War. Segregationists grasped at it
eagerly providing legal support for resisting the
school decision But it is broken reed for effective
of it spells notification This is recognized by many
Southerners; they reluctantly confess they
legal out"
Another Sidetrack which even more plainly leads
to no progress is denunciatOn of the South by many
Northerners. Usually the harshness of this in direct
proportion to the sources ignorance of actual conditions
In the South. 1t i'll calculated to persuade, especially
when it comes from people who practice racial dscrm
nation themselves.
No less futile-and equally damaging is the seq
gregatOnSts attack the Supreme Court. This often
takes most violent form, mpugning the motives of
justices and atributng the unanimous decision to poll
tics Any citizen free to question the ruling of court
with facts and reasoned arguments. But bitter bettl
ing attacks great buwark of liberties will
reverse the decision.
Desegregationists appear at times bent follow
ing bypaths which take them smack against the high
est hardest cliffs of opposition Pushing desegregation
cases in where the Negro population the largest
and the white population most desperate is not likely
to win the most favorable treatment from courts =
which have been directed to take local conditions into
account.
Nor would expect improvement in the actual
situation to result from recently developed hostility
toward Negroes in southern groups Southerners
who present statistics the low standards of their
Negroes help Northerners to understand the pro-
bem better But Southerners warning that too
many of their people fear and oppose any social
progress for the Negro.
However understandable the exploration of such
bypaths may be when emotions aroused and
reasonable people frustrated by the difficulties of
adjustment it is becoming palmer every day that these
are blind alleys For real progress in this situation will
follow the line of persuasion consent and accommoda
tion.

PARISH STREET SATURDAY
NIGHT: My Grandma used to tell
me that one of the worst things
that one of Aunt Haggar's Chillun
could say about another member
of the clan was being said when
ever you hear one of them saying
of another member of the clan:
"Dat Old So-and-So, He thinks He's
"Sonfron." That last being a sort
of peculiar pronunciation among
Aunt Haggar's Chillun for the
word something" | was lis
tening to a conversation while in
dulging my fish and beer and heard
one of the young Parish Streeters,
who by his hard work, thrift, and
good sense, had been able to buy
himself and family nice home, a
modestly priced new automobile,
and he and his wife were able to
20 to the picture show now-and-
then, and looked fairly nice on
Sunday when they dressed up and
got in the car to go to church :.
| kept on listening as the CONVEX
sation went on and it really did
my heart good when l heard one
of them fellows say, Man, don't
let it git you down, when you hear
one of them cats saying that you
thinks yourself "sonfron" Be-
cause if you don't think yourself
"sonfron" :. who in the devil else
do you think will and besides,
he says, Pm gonna keep on work
ing and saving until l get myself
something so great until when
they look and see me coming, them
what amt got no sense Will
Jump up and start shouting
"Dar he come, look at him, ne
thinks hisself sonfron" | quit
listening then because my cup was
already filled and was running
over To hear them Parish
Streeters revealing the fact that
they know and understand that
when ever you hear or see some
body point 1g to somebody and say
ing They think they're Some
thing You can just bet your
bottom dollar that such folks amt
got nothing else much and
thew sure amt got no sense t..
that is horse sense, period.
HERE'S WHAT THEY SAID:
Ella Polk, the longtime secretary
of the Jackson Advocate, was
tickled to death when she saw
that picture of her snapped by
Josephine Trip, who used to work
over at Frazier & Collins Funeral
Home
BODYGUARD WHAT DID YOU
SAY: Brother Richard Young, the
much travelled Parish Streeter who
got held up the other day and lost
$500 and barely escaped a fatal
slash across the stomach, is known
to certain of his friends as the
Bodyguard. Lawyer Sidney Tharp,
when he heard about the holdup
of Brother Young exclaimed! Who,
that fellow a bodyguard, looks like
he needs a bodyguard.
HE'S SORRY NOW; One of the
old time Parish Streeters who used
to stand on the corner long about
this time of the year to watch the
girls go by in their pants and
fancy sport dresses, was in great
anticipation until he read the news
paper Sunday where folks were
arguing that them women with the
pants on should stay at home. The
brother was standing on the cor
ner of Parish and Hamilton streets
with nothing to look at when a
fellow standing by brought up the
subject of the newspaper, and he
sighed and said, you know that
fellow sho oughta not wrote that.
