|ditions. assumes public office
abroad. legally votes in a foreign
election. formally renounces his
citizenship before an American
consul abroad, is convicted of
treason or desertion in time of
war-plus few more specialized
instances.
United States law, however,
recognizes the priceless nature of
citizenship and all that goes with
it.
And that is why, under Ameri-
can procedures, the burden is
directly upon the Government to
prove that a man or woman has
voluntarily entered into one of
the conditions set out in the
foregoing.
Action Against Eelhart
Just a few months ago the
State Department endeavored to
expatriate Johannes Eelhart of
New York on grounds that he
had voted in two Netherlands
elections. Mr.. Eelhart, who was
born in New Jersey of Dutch
parents and thus held a duo
citizenship status, lived in Hol-
land TO. some time during the
post World War II years.
Dutch law requires all citizens
to appear at the polls during an
election, but they are not actual
ly required to cast a ballot.
Mr.. Eelhart said he appeared,
all right, but never voted. The
evidence purporting to show that
state Department introduced
all citizens of the foreign dis
trict in which Mr.. Eelhart
resided had cast ballots. Thus,
it alleged, under the law Mr..
Eelhart had expatriated himself.
But the Federal District Court
in New York tossed the Govern
ment'S case out the window.
Loss of citizenship, it said, is
serious business-and the State
Department must produce much
better proof than it did in this
case in order to divest q citizen
of his natural-born rights.

The 20 Republican members

Mr.. Eisenhower, since being

Understanding
In School
Desegregation
Tells 564 Howard u.
Grads Problem Could
Become Tragically
Devisive

Washington, D. c., June s.
Congressman Frances Payne Boil
ton (R-Ohio) today called for calm
ness and understanding during the
period of school desegregation in
order that the nation may be saved
from a tragically devisive issue.
Her plea came in the Commence
ment address at Howard Univer-
sity where degrees were conferred
upon 564 graduates of the Univer-
sity's 10 schools and colleges.
Three honorary degrees were also
conferred by Howard President
Mordecai w. Johnson. They were
the Doctor of Music degree, which
went to concert singer Todd Dun
can, of Washington, and the Doctor
of Laws degree, which went to
United Nations alternate delegate
Robert L. Brokenburr, of Indiana
polls, and former First Assistant
Secretary of Interior Edward c.
Finney, of Washington. Mr.. Fin
ney, who is hospitalized, received
the degree in absentia through his
daughter, Mrs. E. T. Scheyen, of
Washington.
In her address to a crowd of
some $500 persons, Mrs. Bolton

breakdown of segregation will
be fought legally, economically and

ually - and l belive it will be
years-integration will come to be
generally tolerated"
Help is needed, he added, and
asked his northern audience to
GIVE us your thoughts, your sug-
gestions, your understanding and
your prayers.
LET us work toward solution OF
problems that have not developed
in short time and that cannot be
worked out within a space of 4
few years. We must continue to
walk along together, in an atmos-
phere of mutual trust and conf
dence. Any other conditions that

Suit Was Filed
Following the u. s. Supreme
Court decision that segregation, be-
cause of race is unconstitutional,
B. X. Constantian, an Arson Coun-
ty taxpayer, filed suit to halt the
sale of $750,0O0 in bonds author
ided by the voters in 1862. He
contended the expenditure-for a
segregated school-would be il
legal, in view of the U. S. Supreme
Court ruling.
Constitution Requirement
The state high court Wednesday
said that although the portion of
the state constitution requiring
segregation had been invalidated
the constitution still requires that
the state educate its children.
It is still the duty Of county
commissioners, too, the Supreme
Court said, to provide funds for
buildings and equipment, mainten-
ance and operation of public schools
within the county for a minimum
term required by state.
Nothing in the U. S. Court de-
cision requires children of differ.
ent races be taught in the same
school, the state court observed
adding, mo one can foretell ir
what localities or in what buildings
or to what extent children of the
white race or colored race will be
taught in the same public schools
in North Carolina.

In Mobile, Ala, plans were made
Thursday night for setting up q
1OO-man committee to fight segre-

would take up the work of the
National Association for the Ad-

Gently outlawed in Alabama.
The groundwork for a similar
organization was established earl
Ter in Birmingham.

The Rev. Theo r. Gibson, loca
chairman of the NAACP, said
special committee will be appointed

"If they don't come across, w

The Congresswoman declared that
the challenge facing the nation to-
day is as decisive as any in our
history. She paralleled the situa-
ton to that at the time of the Civil
War, but said:
1--WE know that the nation was
saved thot it has endured :.
that it must endure"
Mrs. Bolton said that there
should be opportunities for men
and women of good will to meet
and discuss ways Of working out
solutions to specific problems in
the area of civil rights.
at is truly terrible tragedy to
see American turned against Am
erican," the Congresswoman as
serted. "This is a problem which
demands understanding and calm
ness. 1t is a common problem which
needs the thinking of our wisest
citizens earnestly seeking the
united action that true Americans
can surely agree upon, once the
full implications are clearly under
stood"
Mrs. Bolton said that school dis
tricts should be encouraged to
move toward fulfillment of the Su-
preme Court decisions, and that
legislative programs such as that
recently proposed by President
Eisenhower be developed.

commended to Congress program

According to the Congress-
woman, the most important prob
lem as yet unsolved in the United
States today is that of securing
equal justice for all people. Its
import does not stop at our bor-
ders, she said.

result of two being arrested this week on charges
OF dsordery conduct because they refused the

Rumor got around on Tuesday that the NAACP was
ABOUT to call for boycott of the buses This brought
about various opinions.
However the NAACP, the Rev. Theodore Gibson
president held meeting and after discussing the matter
issued the following statement:
l. We shall petition the legislative body bodies re-
sponsble for the existing segregation laws repeal such
laws
2. If No. 1 fails we shall then seek legal remedy
through the courts.
3. We shall use the method of boycott as the LAST
resort.
Meanwhile, Sam Solomon president of the Negro Cit-
zens Service League called special meeting, discussed
the matter and the league issued statemest condemnng
the idea of boycott and urging Negroes to ride the
buses usual.
