enough religion to resign him to
being brotherly according to the
teachings of Jesus Christ, then
he is bound to lose his soul. What
will it profit the white Suprema-
cistS to gain the world and lose
their soul? This writer has said
times without number in these
columns that what il will take to
hold the Negro down will be suffi-
cient to morally bankrupt the
South and the nation. In other
words the white man must save
ne Negro or himself to be lost.
The man who puts white supre-
macy above righteousness has al
ready lost his soul. Instead Of
looking upon integration as a loss
TO the white race, if it could be
viewed as an adventure in bro
therlineSS and ChriStlinesS, we
would have stepping stone and
not stumbling block as the white
supremacists are want to contend.
And finally to keep faith with
the ideals of white supremacy Is
to run counter to the will of God
and this means the loss of the
favor of God. We are told that
righteousness exalteth a nation
but sin is reproach to any
people" Even white supremaciSts
cannot put the god of white su"~"-
macy before our. God and lyive!
1t is white supremacy verus God!
The fateful alternative!

Between The Lines !.
THE HATEFUL ALTERNATIVE

The white supremacistS, evert
and covert upon the nation and
the world the imaginary fact as to
what will happen IL indignation
comes. They point a depressing
and distressing picture of what
will take place the moment the
segregationists relax their viTi-
lance and submit to the inevitable
and overwhelming trends of the
times. The unsorhiSticated have
prayed upon the word "mongrel-
ization". and imagined what a
disaster would befall the human
race il people of two different
races too generally amalgamate,
although race mixture has pro-
ceeded space wherever and when
ever such people meet.
There is no race in history that
has out-mixed the white race and
still it is the most dominant race
of modern history. OF all the
worlds mongrelization tn e
White man is preeminent. Mon
grelization has not proved such
a deterrent to him in his am
billions to dominate the world.
But the current predicament in
which the white su2remacists
find themselves at variance with
God and Time and Right, stimu-
lates these supremaciStS to con-
jure up the dire things that will
accompany indignation in the
public schools.
Great social and economic
losses are said to be in the offing
once there is integration; and it
is vigorously pointed out what
and how great will be the loss to
the Whites. In other words we
hear much about what the Whites
will lose through indignation but
we hear little or nothing about
what he will lose if he fails to in
tegrate. Here is an angle well
worth inveStigating-what the
White man viii lose if he fails to
integrate and therein we find
startling possibilities and posibili-
ties that pose threat, not only to
the White man, but to the peace
and hapoines of mankind. Without
indignation, the White man is
bound to lose the moral leadership
of the world End mankind.
When we consider the moral
leadership of the. United States
now and what it was at the end
of World War /, we are COM
PEELED to conclude that in mat
= tiers of world leadership the
United States has retrNogressed.
In 1918 the United States and de-
mocracy were synonymous and
were the toast of the entire
world. Today how changed, with
rioting before our embassies IN
diverse parts of the earth. What
il will take to stave off inte9~a-
ton will further queer the Unit
ed States in the eyes of the world
We have already lost the mora
leadership of mankind, leader
ship that we had at the end o.
World War l.
The White man will lose intra-
racial self respect. 1t is difficult Il
imagine how he can escape the
guilty feelings as to his respon-
sibility for the current crise:
which vex mankind. 1t is more
than passing strange that In
world dominated by the white
man, who are standing upon thu
Drinks of disaster, if not total ex'
termination. On other words, un-
der the white mans rule OF racla
exclusiveness the world is in the
most precarious condition 1t ma!
known since the dawn OF history
Along with white supremacy mus

Plun Would Put
1850 Pupils in
Halliday Glasses
BY PAUL HOPE

The feasibility of placing all
first grade pupils in Fairfax
County on halliday shifts next
year will be discussed by the
county school board tomorrow
night.
George Pope, assistant to SUI
perintendent w. T. Woodson.
said if the school board decides
to adopt the new policy it would
mean that approximately 4,500
first graders would go on the
reduced shift.
Mr.. Pope said the 4,500 first
graders would require about 140
classrooms on regular schedules.
If they could be placed on half
days, it would release about 70
classrooms for other students.
The county now has about
1900 first and second graders on
halliday shifts. MI. Pope said
more than 1000 in the two
grades would be on double shifts
next year unless the board de-
cides to limit shorter sessions
generally to the first grade.
Mr.. Pope said, however. it
probably would be impossible TO
take all second graders off dou-
BILE shifts in the Annandale-
Springfield and the Falls Church
areas because of crowded condi-
lions.
Faced with an expected en-
rollment next year of 38,500-a
jump of about 5000 pupils - the
board has been exploring meth
DDS of handling the situation.
The board already is planning
to build some demountable class
rooms on an experimental basis.
Mr.. Pope said, however, that
most of. these probably will be
at high schools.
Schedules for placing all first
graders on reduced days will be
presented to the board by w.
Harold Ford, director of inStruc-
tons, and Mrs. jeanette Fell
lows. primary supervisor.
The report was asked by the
School Board last week, Mr..
Pope said. 1t will present sew
eral alternatives. 1t will have
schedules for three and one half,
four and five hour sessions, and
one for continuation of the pres
ent policy of six-hour sessions.

Arson Clues Hunted
In z Brickyord Fires

The fire marshal's Office was
investigating two brickyard fires
today to determine whether they
may have been touched off by an
arsonist.
Some details of the blazes
aroused suspicion. The first, at
the United Clay Products Co.,
New York avenue and Bladens-
burg road N. E., started in an
unused shack and spread to a
drying room which was de-
Stroyed.

RUBBER-NECK buses help
some, but these, too, hurry
past, fitting their schedules to
the busy tourist, hitting only
the high spots.
Rock Greek Park ought to
be seen afoot, with its sur
priSes around each curve in
the stream, and not from
an auto hurrying to a con-
vention session at one of
the big hotels. The tourists
might like to know and
marvel over, the fact that the
now-narrow stream once &C
commodated sailing vessels
interested in Georgetown'S
tobacco trade.
1t would take all of their
vacation time or convention
time just to list all of the
things they ought to have
time to see. And before it was
finished the list would be
obsolete, because something
new would have happened to
make something else worth
seeing.
The 5 million tourists who
may pour into the city before
the year is out ought to move
here-lock, stock and barrel.
1t would take a lifetime to
see it all.

The
Rambler
So Much to See;
So Little Time
By JACK JONAS
1t must be frustrating to be
a Washington tourist.

1t must be frustrating to be
a Washington tourist.
There is so much to be seen
and so much to be done that
each visitor, here for a few
brief days, must go home with
a sense of failure and con-
fusion.
Those here for the Cherry
Blossom Festival, for example,
saw beauty enough, but they
were too early for the city'S
brilliant azalea display. Their
bright colors have leaped out
in every neighborhood in the
past week.
The vacation time is time
enough to see the Lincoln Me-
mortal and the Capitol and
Mount Vernon, and maybe
take a quick walk through
Georgetown. But what of the
millions of intriguing side
lights that the residents them
selves seldom have time to see?
The early tourists, too,
missed the mule-drawn barge
trips just starting on the
Chesapeake & Ohio Canal.
The opportunity to look inside
private homes and gardens
rich in history is too rare for
the tourist, if he knows of
them at all.
