Letters Welcome. But.

the MAIL BAG from being used as vehicle
to create religious hatred, the editors are not
invoking censorship. It is our policy to let
our readers speak their minds, short of libel
or obscenity. A letters column that does not
grant that freedom to its readers is not worth
the space it takes.
We value the letters and attempt to
edit them with care. If space limitations
make it necessary to prune the longer ones
we make conscientious effort to preserve
both the line of thought and the flavor of
the letters.
But on an issue as religion, the paper has
a responsibility to the community and to the
region to encourage tolerance and to dis
courage high emotions, Strong convictions
are welcome on issues, but not blanket
insults of an entire religion.
We must, again, ask for tolerance. In
addition, may we offer the following sug-
gestions about future contributions to the
MAIL BAG?
l. Be as brief as possible; letters are
subject to condensation
2. Avoid blanket indictment; use mod
crate, reasonable language.
3. State your own opinions and avoid
criticizing other letter writer's.
a. All letters should be signed and your
address should be included. (Names may be
withheld on requeSt)
We welcome your letters The Journal
wants its readers to have their say. The
MAIL BAG is your column. We invite you
to use it.

A Courageous Step
BY L. L. Long

will now be only one school board and this
is to be appointed by the Noble county
board of education.
The name of the school district will then
be determined by the newly created board
of education. The newly enlarged district
will also assume all the assets and liabilities
of the three school districts
In the consolidation move, a small part
of the Middleburg school district was trans
ferred to the Fulda school district This
actually involves only four families and
during the past few years, the children of
these families have been going to the Fulda
schools.
The action taken here by the county
board means that the four families will now
legally become part of the school district
where they have been represented for
several years by their children.
In the next few years. it is expected that
many other such moves will be made, all
with the idea Of giving the district wider
tax base and providing improved facilities
in the new districts formed.
1t is just the beginning and we hope
that the families in other districts will be
willing to get behind their school admins
tration and give them every assistance
possible as they guide the formations of new
school districts to bigger and better pos
sbilities in this county.

The Noble County Board of Education
took a step last week toward the consolida-
ton of schools in this county in such
manner that the communities involved were
behind them in every action undertaken.
Guided by Supt H. c. Secrest, series
of community meetings had been held in
Jackson and Middleburg school districts with
the idea of telling the people just exactly
what was being done, why it was being done
and letting them voice their opinion before
such action was taken.
In most consolidation efforts in other
communities in the state, the board goes
ahead, approves the move and this is the
first inkling that the people and families
involved get that such action is even being
considered. No wonder they get their ire
up and are against consolidation in any form.
But Supt. Secrest went to the people
several months ago with the result that very
little, if any opposition, was encountered.
The consolidation means that instead OF
three districts, there will now be only one
with the name to be determined by the
newly appointed board of education.
The grade schools at Middleburg and
Jackson will continue as in the past with
several improvements being planned for the
Dexter City high school center.
Instead of three local school boards,
operating independently Of each other, there

This would still permit practically all
of the old building to be used by the Cald-
well volunteer fire department.
The Caldwell fire department is now
making the building their headquarters and
they are anxious to improve their facilities
This is only natural for an organization that
is wide-awake and on it's toes.
But they are hampered in their plans
because of the indetision of the council in
going ahead with the City Hall idea.
If the council would give the go-ahead
signal for such construction, then the fire
department could join forces with these
plans and new City Hall and fire depart
ment would soon be in the making.
1t might take small bond issue to do
the trick but the next general election would
be wonderful time to ask the voters Of
Caldwell to approve such a levy.
But initial action must be taken now if
all of this is to materialize this year. We
urge the advisory committee to make this
their first point of business SO recommend
to the council and then definite action be
taken by this governing body that Cald-
we'll might have new City Hall.

A New City Hall

Mayor Donald Nichols showed unusual
wisdom in the appointment of an advisory
committee from the citizens of Caldwell to
advise the council in their operation of this
community for the next two years.
At least three years ago. Gov. Frank J.
Lausche gave Rep. Edmund G. James
valuable assistance when the latter pro-
posed the giving of the old state highway
department to the village of Caldwell as
gift.
When Gov Lausche was in Caldwell to
inspect the construction of the Cleveland
Graphite Bronze plant, he said at the time
that the building could serve as new City
Hall, since the village was without such
facilities.
We think that the council has tossed this
around long enough and definite plans
should be taken this spring to make of the
old state highway department a new city
hall for Caldwell
1t has been proposed that new construc-
ton would be necessary to add new front
to this building which would serve as offices
for the City Hall, including the mayor
clerk, waterworks department and anything
else connected with city government.

If there is any one place where there
should be complete freedom of expression,
where the interchange of thought and clash
of opinion ought to be absolutely untram-
meled, it is in the letters column of a news
paper.
This is the ideal. We believe in it
sincerely.
Over the years, we have been proud of
the number of letters to this newspaper. 1t
has been strong and consistent Since our
policy has been established on the publishing
of certain types of eligiously-inclined
letters, the paper has been subjected to a
great deal of personal criticism, both from
a local and distant origin.
1t is healthy sign for it indicates that
interest in the most significant issue to face
this area for a long time was centered in
the unique forum offered by the column
we call the MAIL BAG.
But, unfortunately, some letters received
by the paper have been highly inflammatory.
They have. included sweeping assaults on
whole religious groups. They have been full
of contempt and have been patiently
fashioned to stir up anlmosity.
We were faced with a disturbing respon-
sibility. We found it necessary to eliminate
some of the language or eliminate some
letters altogether.
We did this editing reluctantly. But, ii
anything, we were not strict enough. A few
phrases slipped by that should have been
deleted.

1t has been suggested that man be
hired full time to do nothing but keep the
streets clean and in excellent condition at
all times. Probably he would need to work
only two or three days week.
Since the parking meter money is
obtained from motorists, it has been argued
that some of this money should be put back
on the streets.
They are in a deplorable condition at
this time and council should act Immediately
to correct the situation.
This has no reference to Miller street
which is badly broken up from the inter-
section of North to Mill streets. This is a
problem of an entirely different nature and
council is already conscious that something
must be done and soon.

AN UGLY MALADY has reare

AN UGLY MALADY has reared its ugly head N our
midst. So dangerous i sthis malady that immediate steps must
be taken to remove it and clear the air. There can be no COM
promise with racial segregation and bigotry in this land OF
ours. What brought all this to mind was an incident which
occurred recently.
o RUDOLPH and James Reed live together.
Tbev have bought apiece Of property at Clifton Hill where
they live. In their desire to perpetuate their religion Of bigouy
and segregation they have embarked upon program which
IS not only bald and unpretentious in its method, but equally
as stupid.
ORDINARILY 1T would seem elementary, even to the
insultative stage to 90 into a discussion Of segregation U this
part Of the world. It was killed and buried years agosMost
outsiders coming here either to visit or to stay have some-
how come into possession Of that fact except possibly Messrs.
Rudolph and Reed, who no doubt were SO stepped IL their
own assumed sef-importance that they have to cling to dis
elimination and segregation to provide what may be other
wise lacking in understanding and an awareness OF what
is happening in the world.
FOR THE INFORMATION Of these gentlemen there is
4 law on the statute books Of these Islands against segrega-
ton. But perhaps this law will have little meaning to them
since. It was designed to both cure and prevent an ugly
situation. These men have carried their stupidity to- the utter
" ridiculous stage when they evensdemand that no person
Of color even walk on their land, even where such people
have business there.
IT unnecessary to go into long detail or even
to present arguments as to why racial discrimination and
segregation are outmoded and outworn. The world has.
shrunk to such a point, it is so busy, and realizing the one
ness Of mankind, it has little OF no time with such outlnoded
ideas as segregation and bigory. Why, then, trytocOnvince
these men? S.
