Charleston Editor Condemns
Desegregaiion In The South

The real reasons that most
Southerners are against school
desegregation were laid before
the Nation today for the first
time by a prominent Southern
newspaper editor in the Janu-
airy issue Of Harper's Magazine
Chomas R. Warning, editor of
the Charleston IS. c. News
and Courier, writes the frank
expression of Southern senti-
ment "a report which, he
charges, the Northern-controll-
ed press has never published
before.
The Charleston editor accuses
national news magazines and
metropolitan newspapers of a
ba2doning fair and objective
reporting Of the race story" He
says their "one-sided" reports
frequently substitute propagan-
da for facts.
Harper's Magazine is the first
national periodical to present
the Southern viewpoint in full.
Its editors said the article ought
to be widely read, although it
does not express their point of
view.
Daring, in his article, warns
Northern readers at the outset
that they may be "infuriated'
by it. But, he adds, Southcrners
also have been Outraged" by
the Interpretation the Northern
press has given to the desegre-
cation problem.
He lists five differences in
the Negro and white races
which, he says, do not encour-
age white parents to permi;
their children to mingle freely
with Negro children in school:
l. Health. The incidence OF
venereal disease, for instance, is
much greater among Negroes
than among whites Fastidi-
Gus parents do not favor Joint
use of school Mushrooms when
they would not permit it al
homeland there's no use to tell
them that it is unlikely that
anyone will catch venereal di-
sshse from a toilet seat. They
don't want to take risks Of any
kind with their children"
2. Home Environment. "For
most colored children in the
South the cultural background
Is different in many ways from
that of their white neighbors -

without a hospital-except for
D. c. General. the city'S hospital

Henry S. GavenS, budget officer
of the D. c. Health Department,
yesterday asked the advisory
group not to accept the reports
recommendation that no further
hospital construction take place
until there has been IAN ac-
formulation of experience" with
present facilities.
He pointed out that the pro-
posed hospital would not only
serve the southeast but would
also service residents of Prince
Georges in that area.
The council took no specific
action along these lines.
The council, however, did
unanimously recommend to the
Commissioners an increase in
the salaries to interns and resi-
dents of District General Hos
pital. 1t asked the Commits
sioners to provide $165, 900 more
to the proposed increase.

! A thorough review of the Dis
Itrict's entire system of treating
the juvenile offender was urged
yesterday by a special citizens
committee of the Juvenile Court.
The committee, a subcommit-
tee of the Advisory Committee to
the court. made its recommended
ton in a report which dealt with
tine threatened closure of the
National Training School for
Boys. The report termed the
move-advocated by the Federal
Bureau of Prisons-a "crisis" to
the current system of handling
juvenile offenders. 1t is expected
to take place in three years.
Drawn up by Dean o. S. Col
lclough, of George Washington
University. the report will be
discussed in detail before the
full advisory committee at $3.50
pm. Friday.
Commitments Down
The report points out that last
year a total OF IA boys were
committed to the training school
by Juvenile Court while 213 were
in custody during the year. This
represents decline of IS COM
.mitments from 1954's record 1879.
In addition to the 2l3 in Gus
.tody at NTS. 1856 boys were
scattered among eleven other
correctional institutions on June
80. 1855.
The five-man committee cited
a decision by Chief Judge Boil
tina Laws of the Federal District
Court that youths assigned to
the training school cannot be
transferred to a Federal youth
or reformatory type institution
since they have not been found
guilty of crimes.
1T appears clear, however"

other institutions could not, on

officials at Georgetown said
today its expansion program will
be realized in a new wing
jutting southeast from the pres
ent hospital building-and will
be four stories. The new wing
will include out-patient facilities
and additional laboratory space.
They added that the new wing
will make it possible to add be-
tween 60 and 10 beds in the
present hospital building.
Final Plans Due Soon
Funds for the new wing were
obtained under the Hospital
Center Act, under which the
hospital matches funds received
from Congress. Final architec-
tural plans are expected to be
completed shortly.
The survey-conducted by the
firm of Cresap. Mccormick g.

A recent national survey in
dicateS, that forty Negro news
papers advocated the re-elec-
ton of President Eisenhower
and Vice President Nixon. Thir-
ty-nine of these were weeklies
or semi-weeklies, including four
of the "big five", and one, The
Atlanta World, was daily.
Twenty one of these strongly
supported Stevenson in 1852.
One analysis of this is, Ne
groeS have lost faith in the
Democratic Party. Another is
that the generous use of full
page ads in Negro papers was
the attraction. Negro papers are
often searching desperately for
advertising and use some ques-
tionable ads, but I am not Of
the opinion that free flowing
Republican money was the whole
explanation of this phenomenon,
nor do I believe that Negroes
have altogether lost faith in
the Party of F.D.R. and Tru-
man. Faced by the terrific up
surge of segregation and diScri-
rninatiOn sentiment in the South
as the reaction to the Supreme
Court decision, and by the White
Citizen Councils which have
more respectability and ,vigor
than the Klan ever enjoyed, the
American Negro must depend
solely upon a legal fight, so he
must be practical about his
politics.
Politics is one of the few
means Negroes in America have
of fighting for status as citizens
and the fight is far from won.
The argument that ga vote for
Stevenson is a vote for East
land" had more weight, I be-
lieve, than any other. I am sure
that the Republican claim to
the Supreme Court decision, and
to the anti-diScrimination vic
tory in the District fooled very

FACING THE FACTS
BY w. A. Robinson

few Negro leaders. have heard
some strong Democratic Negro
supporters in Arizona say they
hope the Republicans win con-
troll of the Senate so that the
responsibility would be Squarely
on the COP to change the Sem
ate rules which permit fillibus-
tering to death of Civil Rights
bills and killing them in COM
mitteeS.
It was evident before, during,
and after the conventions that
both parties were willing to
make deals for southern sup
port. The silence of Stevenson
before the Democratic conven-
ton was never really forgiven
by Negroes despite his strong
and fortnight statements later
during the campaign. Some Ne
gro Republican feeling in the
South is responsible for the
statement that StevenSon's will
ingness to swap off the Negro
vote got him the southern seq
regationiStS and lost him the
Negro vote.
In my opinion the real truth
is that the segregation states
were in worse dilemma than the
Negroes. In the heat of the
campaign it was evident that
nobody was bidding for their
votes so they just closed their
eyes and did what came nat
urally".
Not since the campaigns of
Abraham Lincoln has so much
concern for the well-being of
the Negro been expressed. Then
it was for the poor Negro slave,
in the recent campaigns it was
for the Negro American citizen.
We shall know in the next four
years whether the concern was
really for the rightneSS of the
Negro cause, or merely for party
eXpedience. The whole world
will be waiting to see.

VETERANS
NEWS

Arizona veterans purchasing
new homes with CT loans should
inspect the properties personal
ly before closing the loans,
Wayne A. Sanders, manager of
the Phoenix Veterans Admins
tration Regional Office, said
today.
He pointed out that while VA
has an inspection service to de-
termine if new homes meet &C
cepted standards of good con-
Struction, the veteran-purchaSer
should personally check all items
of the property before complet-
ing the purchase.
"The veteran should inspect
the property with the builder
or his representative to make
sure that the home, the property
and the equipment is satisfacto-
ry," Mr.. Sanders said. "If it isn't,
definite arrangements should be
made with the builder at that
time to have any defects re-
medied."
If defects develop after the
veteran has moved into the new
home, the builder should be
notified Immediately, Mr.. Sand
erS said. Then, if a satisfactory
adjustment is not made within
a reasonable time, the veteran
should notify the Loan Guaranty
Division, Veterans Administra-
ton Regional office, Ellis Build
ing, Phoenix, Arizona.
His letter to VA should give
the street address, or lot and
block number; the VA loan
number; the builders name, and
a list of defects. The VA will
attempt to have corrections
made which may be determin-
ed as the responsibility OF the
builder, Mr.. Sanders said.

WASHINGTON. -, The preSi-
Dental campaign just conclu-
ded produced it's normal confu-
sion of issues. But one-at least
was clarified. Both major par
ties have now accepted the prin-
ciple that economic growth of
the nation will increase revenue
to the government so that taxes
can be reduced.
The Democratic candidate -
speaking for his party-flatly
stated that existing taxes will
yield all the revenue needed for
the welfare programs he pro-
posed, and "leave an ample mar
gin for tax reduction"
While not as specific, Admi-
nistration spokesmen during the
campaign echoed the same SEN
timent. Treasury Secretary Hum
phrey, for example, stated that
"taxes must come down.. out of
a combination of more income
and less expense" The Secretary
indicated that he felt that con-
ditionS for tax reduction would
come about in the reasonably
near future"
On the face of it, acceptance
of the economic growth theory
by both Republican and DEM
ocratic parties would seem to
clinch the argument for sub
stantial reduction in present
discriminatory income tax rates.
Political observers here in
Washington, however, are not
that naive. Campaign speeches
can be just "oratory," or "a
change in the situation" may
Justify a quick reversal of Pr1n-
ciple or policy. More important,
though, is the apparent accept
ance by both major parties of
the theory that a good portion
of growth money" must be
spent by the Federal Govern
ment for new services and pro-
jectS.

The big question in Washing
ton today iS-how much?
Mr.. Stevenson estimates that
his program for a New America
would cost the taxpayers an
additional $3.2 billion annaully
by 1860 and $9.7 billion annually
by 1865. Vice President Nixon
estimated that: "The economic
program proposed by Stevenson
would cost Is billion more an
nually than the Federal Govern
ment is now spending under the
Eisenhower Administration"
The Stevenson program for a
New America called for an in
creased federal program for hos
pital construction, medical re-
search, aid to education, and a
scholarship program. Although
he was unable to put a dollar
tag on his housing and urban
redevelopment proposals, he ad-
mitted that his package plan
would start at 80 billion in 1860
and eventually cost three times
that amount.
At the same time, expendi-
lures have risen from 1854 bill
lion to $691 billion, or approx
mately 81 billion more than the
President predicted in January.
In other words, the Federal Gov
eminent now is spending money
realized from economic growth
rather than reducing taxes and
thus permitting the people to
retain their increased earnings
And expeditures might have
gone even higher than this, but
Congress failed to enact legis-
lation for general school con-
struction, Hell's Canyon pro-
ject with an ultimate cost Of
$5O8 million, and the Frying
Pan Arkansas project with an
ultimate cost of $156 million.
The Democratic Congress
nearly added an additional $400
million for the civilian atomic
