Racial Harmony

If racial harmony in Fort Worth is the overriding
consideration, the standards of conduct recommended

report to the City Council offer practical guide but it

not, and perhaps could not, come to grips with the

population is to find homes.

group of 10 citizens evenly divided between the two
races proposes: L. That persons shall not move into
areas occupied exclusively predominanty by those of
different unless they have determined that they
are desired. g. That owners and brokers shall refrain

We Must Love Ye One Another
If We Want To Be Saved
Gods Holy Word is not to change
Neither add or take away
His Sons blood he shed to redeem
the world
For the right to travel the Kings
Highway.
The flesh and blood highway
Is highway of sin for souls
Drunkards and gamblers, sinners
of all kind
You can meet them both young and
old
The world is building her highways
Putting up her speed limit as we'll
30, 40 and so miles per hour
But it don't tell how far it is to
He'll.
So the Kings Highway is the way
to Glory
Christ Jesus is the one that con-
trolls
He is the doorkeeper of the King
dom of Heaven
Eternal life for the Saints of Gods
soul.
This world has an end to it
And sin will set this world on fire
Be no water to cover this earth
1t will be a flaming hell with
power.
Don't Fool Yourself To He'll
No one will know the end of time
Only by signs we are told
So the world is now in a hell of a
fix
You say with the young and old.
1t looks like the world is about
crazy
On the modern day as we'll
But | can't find no modern Heaven
And neither no modern hell.
When all of Gods saints are called
up home
Brains and degrees will set the
world on fire
They have never been born of the
spirit of God
So it's hell down here no higher
The love of money is the root of all
evil
And evil is the corporation of hell
So it's best to love Jesus Christ
our Lord
And in this world we would live
we'll.

that the neighborhood school
would become a thing of the past.
Re-Grouping Plan
The New York Board of Educa-
ton on Feb. % approved in prin-
ciple two reports from it's commits
sion on integration, urging that
the schools be zones in the inter-
est of better racial balance. Sub
sequently, however, school officials
stressed that:
There would be no relocation of
children by bus because of color.
That all transportation, "now as
in the past is either to transport
a child who lives far from the
nearest school or to relieve over
crowding and to make better use
of school buildings"
Re-grouping will be confined
largely, if not entirely, to neigh
borhoods already made up of mixed
racial groups.
Uprooting Feared
The neighborhood school will re-
main the backbone of the school
system. However, new schools will
be located in fringe areas, as far
as possible, so that their enroll
ments will come from Negro, white
and-or Puerto Rican sections within
reasonable walking distance, Volt
man said.
Many white parents, the story
said, feared that their children
would be uprooted and transported
to distance schools in Harlem and
other areas with preponderance
of Negro or Puerto Ricon pupils
One group of white parents has
threatened to file lawsuits if the
integration program is carried or

Sitting by the television in the
attractive living room of his Pick
ems, Miss, home at the end of the
day were 31-year-old John H. Ma
lone and his wife and one Of their
six children. Out in their pastures
grazed 33 head of Hereford cattle.
He had already paid his 1857 an

months ahead.
AS | sit here at my typewriter,
referring to my notes, and recall
ing my pleasant visits with these
families and with the state, area,
and county officials of the Farm
ers Home who are working with
them, | wish | could say that all
the other farmers are doing just
as we'll, and that the problem of
small low-income farmers has been
solved. But this simply is not
true. The mass of small farmers,
especially Negro farmers, still earn
less than $1,000 year and live
in shabby houses. However, in
creasingly these houses stand en-
pity, or bullying with hay for acres
of beef cattle.
The families | visited were not
a representative sample. They
were examples of one aspect OF
Government help in promoting
family-type farms but more than
that, they were symbols of hope
and directional beacons for their
communities. These homes will be
the center of interest during the
observance of National Home Dem
onstration Week, April % to May
A.. Neighbors will visit to get point
ers and stimulation for their own
dreams.
Last year the Farmers H m e
made loans totaling $3.50 million
to $4,000 similar farm families to
buy or develop family-type farms,
or to purchase equipment, live
stock, and supplies with which to
operate their farms, or to build
homes and farm buildings. In ad-
dition. it made emergency loans
of $50 million to some $4,000 other
farmers.
The repayment record of the
borrowers has been outstanding.
For example, in 1856, Farmers
Home collected in principal and in
trest 1922 million. Although some
of the loans are made for periods
up to 40 years, thousands of farm
ers have paid out well ahead OF
schedule.
In its 2O-year history, Farmers
Home has loaned about $3.50 mil
lion to some 275,00O Negro farm
families. About 10000 Of these
received loans to buy farms and
build homes.
