DOES INTEcRATIoN
INEVITABLY LOWER
ACADEMIC STANDARDS?

The problem here is not racial,
but socio-ecunUmic and educa-
tionsl. Academic standards tend
to be lower in communities with
proper environments. Also many
Negro pupils lag because of the
inferior schooling they have re-
ceived in segregated school sys-
TENS. Tests by the United Nations
Educational, Scientific and Gull
tural organization revealed the
fact that there is a wide range
of intellectual ability within each
racial, religious, and national
group in the world.
In the United Safes, the study
reports, some groups of Negro re-
cruits from the North were found
to be more literate than some
groups of whites. A study of child
rem of white Southern mountain
GERS who had moved to Cincin-
natl, Ohio, revealed quite an edu-
cational gap between them and
the city children. 1t wsS found,
however, that although the noun
tain children lacked the cultural
background to facilitate learning,
they did have the ability to learn.
Such studies have shown that
when either group, white or Ne
gro, is placed in a superior eco
nomic and educational environ
ment, the average score on mental
tests tend to rise; where either
group lives in an inferior econogn-
ic and educational environment,
the scores tend to remain low.
DR.. Tilman Cothran, chairman of
the Department of Sociology at
A. M. and N. College at Pine
Bluff, Arkansas, contends that in
tegration will tend to raise over
all educational standards of the
South since it is matter not Of
down grading students who al
ready have high educational
standards, but one of upgrading
students who have lacked proper
educational opportunities.

ARE NEGROES BioLoGicALLY
INFERIOR TO WHITES?

Em3hatically no. Scientists tell
us that all men have the same
basic characteristics as their COM
mon ancestors, and that structure
of people of all races is the same.
We differ only in certain super
fetal features such as skin
color, hair, shape Of eyes, etc
these physical variations are found
among members Of the same
race as well as among those OF
different races.
The myth Of Unborn racial sup
eriority is often based on blood
lines" Science tells us that blood
has nothing to do with heredity
and that the four different types
of human blood exist in all races.
In fact, the percentages Of blood
types for Negro Americans are
very close to the percentages for
white Americans. No connection
has been found between the bio
logical makeup of people and the
level of their intelligence or cll-
ture,

DO MIXED SCHOOLS LEAD
TO MIXED MARRlAGEs7

This Is perhaps the most COM
mon argument advanced against
integrated schools - just as 1t
was advanced against Negro vot-
ing in the Democratic primary,
indignation In higher education,
and the other gains in race rela-
lions during the last Is years. Yet
there is little evidence to sustain
such an argument. Even in states
where there has never been legal
segregation, in schools or other

The theory Is that since polit.
ical bigwigs willingly subject
themselves to the glare Of pub.
licity and since their character
Is q matter Of obvious public
concern. the public can say al
most anything II wants tC
about them without fear Of IL

Well. 1t can't. Not quite.
And a good illustration oi
the fact can be found In the
recent award Of $1,000 by Brit
ish courts TO Engalnd's contro-

Mr.. Bevan and two other

Politicians Are Not

against people who attack them
publicly. But 1t does afford
libel or slander action In cases
where false statements against
politicians imply a neglect OF
their public duty andior some
serious misconduct in ONCE.
Charges Of intoxication have,
In a number Of cases. proved
sufficient to cost their perpe-
traitors a considerable bit OF
money when falsely levelled
against politicians.
Newspaper Pays
Some years ago an Oshkosh.
Wis. newspaper published the
comments Of a member of the
city council against q State
senator. The councilman had
said Its too bad when a man
like Senator Buckstafi, who is
tour-nttnS OF MS time In a state
Of intoxication. can dictate
TO the council"
The paper paid for that re-
mark.
More recently q Texas news
paper found itself In similar
hot water when IL accused a
certain county attorney Of
shooting with his six-gun at
the feet Of q Negro. prisoner to
make him dance. The Judge
decided that since the charge,
II true. would have been cause
for removal OF the attorney
from Office. he was entitled TO
bring a suit for libel.

and the other for polyps In

cially at night. 10 wakes me
out Of my sleep. I have tried
everything I know Of and still
can't stop it. Could tobacco
or soda cause Il? I have a
longing for sweets. Could IL
be shingles?
The burning from the
knees down has been going

new burning has come on
lately. I am 81 years old now.

she's got TO have 1t Just right
and she doesn't trust anyone

everyone will Just gasp when
they see 1t. But it's hard tc
judge in advance Just what

All my friends seem TO have
different ideas of what is nice
and my mother and mother
in-law are at opposite poles
in their taste. They all try
to help me. but they only sue.
ceed in mixing me up. The
other day my mother-in-law
had the nerve TO say that
don't want to make a home
because I'm SO slow about 1t.
/ try so hard to do thii
job well, yet everyone is be-
ginning to laugh at me. Some
times I feel like calling tht
whole thing quits and Just
walking out. It looks al
though I am failing as q wife
THE COUNCILS VIEW
Establishing a home is gen.
orally considered as important
an assertion Of femininity q:
earning a living or starting
career is Of masculinity.
Most women feel they neec
to do a successful job in THU
realm in order to have am
sense Of satisfaction with
themselves.
However. Emily's desire fol
"a home the whole world will
admire" Is a bit excessive
This. plus her confusion al
the opposing ideas of hel
mother and mother-in-l ano
her friends. indicates she has
a very weak sense Of her oVr
feminine personality. It is ffot
a simple confusion in taste
but a lack Of confidence in her
own feminine judgment.
This impasse has led Emily
to the point where she openly
admits I'm failing as a wife. ;
We would suggest that she
shun such destructive notions
