FRIDAY, FEBRUARY Is, 1867
Let's Be Honest

FEDERAL udg e Walter E. Hoffman
handed down bench decisions at New
port News on Monday and Norfolk on
Tuesday, requiring each city to begin racial
desegregation in the schools with the 1851
SO session. The decisions, when read care
fully with background of what is being
done in other cities, notably New York, APP
pears to US to be rather inconclusiVe.
He suggested in the case Of Newport
News that desegregation would not great
" affect the schools, and that the school
board by gerrymandering the school dis
tricts could hold Indignation to minimum.
In the Norfolk decision he referred to his
Newport News opinion and proceeded to
point out:
there is particular law which prevents rea-
sonable reallocation of school areas for geo.
graphical purposes, and it is logical to assume
that even the foregoing percentages a to l
white IN Patrick Henry and to white in
Gatewood) will be somewhat reduced"
This point be admitted. But when the
acton Of the New York School board lat
the behest of politicians and Fe era
Courts, we presumed moves Negro children
from Harlem schools across the city to
white schools and vice versa. there is no as
surance that federal legislation, under the
civil rights bills now before Congress- will
not require total Indignation even under
conditions Of hardships.
Let's be honest in whatever we do Let's
be fair to all people and to both races. 1t
has been abundantly proven that integra-
ton of races in the Washington school sys-
TEN has been unsuccessful has lowered
the standards of education for all and
produced racial tensions. In other North
ern cities where de-segregation as a mat
ter Of principle, has been i'll effect for
many wears, it is a Well-knoWn and proven
fact that by political chicanary, gerry
wandering, and other methods, racial seq
regation has remained practical fact
Judge Hoffman let it be known that the
L, S. Supreme Court had not realized the
opposition to racial Indignation in public
schools. An interesting paragraph in his
bench decision reads in part:

Letters To Editor
Southwest Thanks
Southside Virginia

Editor of Herald:
Mother, Dorothy and | are always
glad when the FarmVille Herald
comes and look forward to reading
it, but we especially were impressed
with the front page story about the
two truck loads Of supplies sent
from Southside to us here in the
Southwest That was a wonderful
thing to do and while we are not
official spokesman we want you to
know that we appreciate it and are
mighty proud of our fellow Virgin
ians. We would be especially inter
eSted in knowing just where the
trucks went, to Grundy? Richards
or where? Right here in Tazewell
town we used boiled drinking water
for a few days and didn't have
school for three days but We didn't
have it too bad
Sometimes we say that folks in
Virginia think the state stops at
Roanoke but Southside gave us con
elusive proof that not everyone in
Virginia is unaware Of our exis-
tence Thank you
| am enclosing a clipping which
you might find interesting if you
have not already seen it
We are rejoicing over sunshine to-
day, the first We have had since
