purposes in mind.
They wanted to prove that law
under which school boards may
assign students to schools as they
see fit really works. And, further,
by announcing desegregation plans
in all three cities at once, they
made it hard for the opposition to
concentrate on any one point.
In Little Rock. which is about

perintendent Virgil T. Blossom
pointed out that five days after
the 1854 Supreme Court decision.
the school board issued a state
ment saying it intended to comply.
Mr.. Blossom conceded in an in
terview that perhaps 80 per cent
Of the white people in Little Rock
were opposed. but that the leading
citizens had called to applaud the
boards stand and to pledge sup
port to law and order.
Our job" he said, lis not to
interpret the law. Our job is to
obey and accept the moral obliga-
ton to develop and maintain a
good educational system"
In Charlotte. J. p. Hobson. vice
chairman Of the school board, said
that after the desegregation an
nouncement there were telephone
calls and letters protesting. but
that generally the community had
accepted the decision calmly.
After the protests came the letters
and calls from the people Of in
fiuence supporting the action.
Newspapers Help
In each Of these cities-Little
Rock, Nashville and Charlotte

This has been true in every major
city which has integrated without
much bother.
Each Of the three cities is APP

objective is the same-minimum
compliance for the time being.
Little Rock is desegregating in

The committee found the cost
of operating present city hall and
police station to be $2,021.83. This
included heat, electric and rent
as per 1856 audit figures.
The cost of heat for the Caulk
Buildings in 1856 was $2400. This
is as per records of oil company
that furnished oil for buildings.
This included heating first and
second floors of brick buildings
and all of the frame building. We
have also been advised that with
a new boiler, the heating efficiency
will be increased from Is to 80
percent.
Therefore, we feel that the cost
of electric and heat in the former
Caulk Building will not exceed the
present cost of electric, heat and
rent for present police and city
hall building.

by all committee members and all
are in unanimous agreement on all
