REBUILDING Fences

Fears that their factional strife over
the senatorial nomination may be harm
full to the election prospects of New York
State Democrats in November are being
reflected in developments of recent days.
Topping the list was the action of
Thomas K Finletter, former Secretary
of the Air Force, in declining to accept
the Liberal Party nomination for the
Senate. Mr.. Finletter, Democrat, ran
poor third in his own party'S nominal
ing convention but was designated with
out opposition as the Liberal candidate.
His refusal to run on the Liberal ticket
had been expected, after his Democratic
defeat, but he was completely frank in
informing the Liberal Party advisory
committee that he feared their entry
of candidate other than the Demo-
cratic choice would result in a victory
for the Republican nominee, Represent
alive Kenneth B. Heating. He urged the
Liberals instead to indorse the Demo-
cratic choice, District Attorney Frank
s. Hogan.
Despite the Finletter appeal, the
Liberals are deferring their decision and
have until September to make a choice.
They have been openly cool to the
Hogan candidacy and some party spokes-
men are talking publicly about naming
another candidate rather than being
rubber stamp" party for the Demo-
Gratis While small numerically, the Lib
eral Party can hold a balance of power
in New York State. In 1852, their can
didate for the Senate, DR.. George S.
Counts, polled 100000 votes-splitting
the State total to the advantage of Re-
publican Senator Ives, the winner. In
1854, when Democratic Governor Har-
riman was elected by II 900 votes, the
Liberals contributed 100000 to his total.
Meanwhile, Mr.. Hartman, renomi-
mated, and Mr. Hogan, who was not the
Governors choice, were exchanging new
statements of personal friendship and
political approval as evidence of party
harmony. Another step in this direction
was the designation of former Judge
Samuel I. RoSenman, longtime associate
of Mr.. Hartman, as campaign manager
for Mr.. Hogan.
There is presumably, sufficient time
for the Democrats to smooth out these
personal relationships and no doubt
strong pressure is being brought on
the Liberals to accept Mr.. Hogan I'm
less or until that effort is successful,
however, Republican prospects remain
CORRESPONDENCE better.

Breach in the Wall

The Norfolk School Board has said
that it will assign II Negro students to
six formerly all white schools, and If
this happens Virginia's wall Of massive
resistance" will have been irrevocably
preached.
The members of the board are not
doing this willingly or happily. They
are caught between the States no-inte-,
grafton laws and a Federal court order
directing them to admit the Negroes to
the white schools. In this situation,
they have reluctantly decided to obey
the court, knowing that to refuse means
punishment for contempt. They are
doing this unhappily because it is "con-
trary to what all of the members of the
school board and the division superin-
tendent of schools honestly and sim
cerely believe is in the best interests of
the applying children, the children in
the affected schools and the public in
general" In short, these people at the
local level, faced with the threat OF
Federal punishment are bowling to
court command which they believe will
adversely affect the education of both
white and colored children. This ex-
preston Of opinion by the Norfolk
School Board should be kept in mind,
for it goes to the real heart of this
whole matter. The Supreme Courts
school decision was intended to improve
educational opportunities for Negro
children. AS the courts grind on toward
enforcement, will the result be impair
ment of educational opportunities for
the children of both races?
The answer to this question lies in
the future. The immediate question is
concerned with Virginia's reaction, as
Stunning that the Negroes actually are
admitted to the white schools. The six
schools affected include all three of the
city's high schools and three of its four
junior high schools. Is Governor Al
lnond going to close them and keep them
closed? If So Virginia will have wrecked
the educational opportunity OF the af-
fected children long before there can
be any final test of the fears expressed
by the school board with reference to
the courts decision. Are the schools
SO1llB W OC-CIOoCO GCulpOA any oIlO OIlCIA
reopened on an integrated basis, with
State funds cut off? If so, what sense
would this make? With some integra-
ton, the purpose of massive resistance is
defeated. In that situation, why should
Norfolk be penalized because its school
board has done what it had to do?
The time is close at hand, we believe,
when Virginia will have to adopt new
approach. Some indignation seems GER
tain in Norfolk, Arlington and Char
lotteSville. And in future years the same
thing will be true of other communities.
Which is better-to adhere blindly to a
course of futile resistance or to permit
the affected localities to handle their
own problem in their own way? Clearly,
we believe, the latter course is both in
evitable and preferable, with the State
rendering such assistance to the local.
ties as may be possible.

New Face in journalism

transfer OF ownership control OF the
New York Herald Tribune to John Hay
Whitney is a notable development in
the history of American journalism and
related media. Mr.. Whitney, now Amer
lean Ambassador in London, is a widely
respected multimillionaire of many in
terestS in the fields of finance, philan-
thropy, diplomacy, politics and sports.
His attention to the area of publish
Ing and communications has grown in
recent yearS-inCluding ownership in
terestS in paper production, radio, tele-
vision and magazines. Last spring, he
formed Plymouth Rock Publications,
Inc, as holding company for these re-
lated ventures and control of the Herald
Tribune is vested technically in this
corporation.
Mr. Whitney'S direct association
with the Herald Tribune began nearly
year ago when It was announced that
he had made an investment in it. Re-
ports that the paper had been in finan-
cial difficulties we're current before and
since Mr.. Whitney'S original investment
and are implicit in the present change
of control Under ownership of the
Reid family since 1924, the paper pros
pered for a quarter of a century be-
fore declining circulation and mounting
costs signaled trouble. Efforts to revi-
talize the paper have brought improve
ments, but apparently not enough in
financial terms. Mr.. Whitney's resources
Should meet this need.
The Herald Tribune has a proud
and distinguished history, dating back
to two great American journalists. The
Herald was founded by James Gordon

by Horace Greeley in 1841. The papers

To Assure Enough Blood

AT the bottom of the unfortunate
controversy that has arisen over meth
DDS of securing blood for local hospitals
is the important need to assure an ade-
quate blood supply at all times. There
have been times of late when the supply
from the Red Cross voluntary blood
bank has run perilouSly low. Such
shortages, of course, are of real concern
to the hospitals, for human lives are at
stake. 1t is gratifying, therefore, that
inquiries into the blood supply situation
will be made by two competent organi-
cations, with view to finding and cor
recting the weaknesses in the present
Setup.
One study will be made by con-
Sulting firm under authority of the
Blood Program Committee of the Red
Cross Washington Regional Blood Gen.
ter. A broader investigation is planned
by the Blood Committee of the District
Medical Society Involved in the blood
supply crisis are differing concepts of
responsibility for maintaining a suf1-
Gent supply in the hospitals. The Red
Cross holds that this is a community
responsibility, while pathologiStS of
several hospitals feel that it is the re-
SponSibility of the individual patient to
replace any blood he receives-either
through donations of relatives or friends
or by purchase of blood from a profess
sional donor.
We hope the concurrent inquiries
will resolve the difficulties quickly, for
a lingering controversy will only make
the collection Of blood more dif1cult.
