NAACP Again Opposes Federal
Aid to Segregated Schools

NEW YORK - The National
Association for the Advancement
of Colored People is again sup
porting the Powell amendment to
the federal aid to school conStruc-
ton proposal, Roy Wilkins, exec
utive secretary, announced here
this week.
Mr.. Wilkins announcement fol-
lowed President Eisenhower's
Jan. % message to Congress pro-
posing that more than $4,000, 000,-
600 of federal funds be made
available to the states to assist
them in the construction of CUB
lie schools. The Presidents mes
sage expressed the hope that "this
school construction Liquidation
can be enacted on its own merits,
uncomplicated by provisions deal
ing with the complex problems of
indignation.
POWELL TO INTRODUCE
MEASURE
Representative Adam Clayton
Powell promptly announced that
he would again introduce his
amendment restricting federal aid
to states in which schools are al
ready integrated or in which a
start toward desegregation has
been made. In the 84th. Congress
the New York congressman intro
duced a similar amendment which
the NAACP vigorously supported.
In a memorandum to all state
and local units of the NAACP on
Jan. %, Mr.. Wilkins affirmed that
"the position of the NAACP on
this matter has not changed from
that of previous years. We are
still opposed to granting funds to
states to build schools where those
states have refused and are still
refusing to begin to desegregate
their public schools in accordance
with the ruling of the United
States Supreme Court"
The NAACP leader cited reso-
luton parsed by the Associations
Board of Directors on Feb. IA,
1855, which declared that "any
new federal legislation in aid OF
education in the states at what
ever level or of whatever char
acter should contain corrective
and safeguarding features which
make such aid available only to
ouch states as comply fully with
the spirit and purpose of the
Constitution"
