a turn in time, in tradition,

a century and a half.

handicap on the educational

1t will be insisted that

Whole Era Seen Passing in Review
As Tribunal Hears Integrotion Case

It was a scene long to be
remembered, one of the great
dramas of our national his
tory.
And perhaps simply be-
cause it was so significant, it
was a drama quietly and dryly
underplayed. This was the
Supreme Court of the United
States assembled to hear the
petition of the Little Rock
school board for a 30-month
delay in indignation and thus
a breathing spell to that city
Of passion and Crisis,
What was it like in this. one
of the gravest special sittings
in generations. as the court
was hearing the arguments
and moving toward its deci-
sion?
First, the setting: BY early
morning long lines of people
white and colored-had
been standing in single file on
the high, ascending line Of
marble steps that leads to the
vast bronze doors of the
Supreme Court. Some had
been standing there all night.
The court was to meet at
noon. BY 1880 am. every
possible seat-including a few
movable chairs discreetly
tucked away here and there
was occupied. Many were
standing decorously in the
back Of the room.
1t is a huge. perfectly
square room with a vaulted
ceiling. Along each of four
walls there rise four giant
marble pillars. The rather
few seats available to the
public--no more than 400
are straight, stiff and covered
with red cloth. much like
pews in an d-fashioned but
elegant church.
The whole effect is somber:
the impression is of an i'm
mense, cool power.
BY 1859 am. this room is
almost painfully hushed; a
few very faint whispers occa-
sionally are heard. AT IL noon
the nine black leather chairs
on the high bench are still
empty. A small boy, a page,

ing them just so.

DAVID LAWRENCE

The supreme school board
Of the Nation, better known
in the past as the Supreme
Court Of the United States,
has taken up this week only
the first Of many administra-
tive questions that are grow
ing out Of the segregation
integratiop" controversy.
In New York City, for in
stance, Negro parents have
boycotted q public school be-
cause 1t is predominantly
Negro. Temporarily, several
Negro children are being
tutored privately as a protest
against failure Of the city to
send them to other schools
where the teaching is al
legedly better. It is argued
by the parents that the city
not only must assign the
children to ''integrated"
schools outside their own area
but must provide transporta-
ton. too. as it has done in
cases where "overcrowding"
was giten as the reason for
transfers.
The parents are. of course,
Just taking literally what the
Supreme Court said in its
1854 decision. The court
ruled that 1t must regard
Intangible considerations" as
controlling - that is, the
liability to study, to engage
In discussions and exchange
views with other students"
The court added:
such considerations apply
with added force to children
in grade and high schools. To
separate them from others of
similar age and qualifications
solely because of their race
generates a feeling of inferi-
ority as to their status in the
community that may affect
their hearts and minds in a
way unlikely ever to be I'M
DONE"
, Everyone knows that it's
only because of race that Me-
groes have for generations
found housing unavailable to
them in certain areas of New
York. Hence. to perpetuate
this form of segregation" by
insisting that residential re-
quirements be strictly fol-

the same ratio as the Negro
population Of the area bears
to the white population. This
means in some instances a
$3.50 division. But the goal to
which many Negro leaders
are working is that previously
all-white schools should have
substantial numbers of Ne
groes in them, even II the
city or State has to pay
transportation expenses to
bring this about.
Who is to decide all this?
The school boards Of the
cities and the States? Not
at all. It now has become the
problem Of the Supreme
Court. which must somehow
enforce It's rulings If 1t is to
be consistent. AS for "en-
forcement," the demand now
is coming even from church,
men that military force be
used. The two top officers Of
the Unite d Presbyterian
Church of America have just
told the press in New York
that they indorse the use OF
troops and tanks II neces-
sary" to carry out the deci-
sions of the Supreme Court
of the United States.
1t so happens that no Fed
eral statute at present au-
thorizes the use of military
force to carry out court de-
crees, but EN- o tions have
reached the point where some
prominent churchmen. who
normally renounce the use Of
force. are willing to see arms
employed to achieve what the
Supreme Court decided.
So it is natural for Negro
parents in New York to de-
mand that their children be
given what the highest court
said they are entitled to have
Ia good education regardless
of their place of residence in
the community. This means
removal of the handicaps en-
countered in schools located
in the low-income areas. That
might take years. In the
meantime, equality means to
these Negro parents equality
all along the line and right
away, even if 1t involves
transporting Negro children
from one district to another
at public expense.

not promise never to attempt

which is to claim the big

Indeed, any concessions

damage, perhaps fatally, the

question of the significance of

Kind Memoirs
OF War Written
By Montgomery

PARIS, Sept. IL (AP) Field
Marshal Viscount Montgomery
served notice on his contempo-
raries yesterday that they can
read his coming memoirs with
complete peace of mind -
there's not an unkind word
about them in the whole book.
All he has done-so Monty"
told Paris foreign correspond
ents--is to set forth his own
views and the facts about what
happened.
II leave it to the reader to
decide who was right" he said,
adding: There's not doubt in
my mind about who was right. "
Monty said many generals,
particularly on the other side
of the Atlantic" had written
about him and about the war.
He cited, as an example, Gen.
Omar Bradley.
Few of them had anything
very nice to say about me. Now
my memoirs are shortly COM
ing out, and you'll find / do not
say a single unkind word about
anyone. And that's some
achievement"

toward the goal of more COM

The Record of PorIeys With Reds

Secretary Dulles have clearly
stated their conviction that
the centre defensive position
Of the United States in the
Western Pacific hinges on the
fate of Formosa. AS the off,
shore islands, now under
Communist bombardment, are
an integral part of the Ma
tionalist defense OF Formosa,
then their Importance is as
great to the West as the de-
Tense of Formosa and the
Pescadores themselves.
True, the little rocks them
selves are of little strategic
value. They serve the free
world chiefly as outpostS and
as checks on Communist COM
merce in and out Of the main
land ports of Annoy and Foo
chow. They could conceivably
be used by Chiang's forces as
bases for any future attempt
to reconquer mainland China,
a still-promised but increas-,
ingly unlikely event in the
circumstances.
But their Importance as
symbols of Free China, and
their tribute to the fighting
qualities of the Nationalist
forces mean a lot more than
their strategic value in a
shooting war. Communist
China recognizes this plainly.
To GUST Chiang's troops and
get control of the islands is
of minor importance to Pei
ping. But to erase once and
for all the only symbol Of
Free China within sight Of
the mainland would be a psy-
cholocial victory of the
greatest importance.
AS the President pointed
out, the significance Of
Quemoy and the Matsus is
of the same nature as the
significance Of a free Czecho-
slovakia was in 1888, when
the appeasers at Munich sac
riflced that brave republic to
Adolph Hitler for peace in
our time"-a peace that
lasted just one year. The
principle is exactly the same.
The price Of peace. when the
civilized world is negotiating
with a bandit, is too high.
/ Each concession paves the
way for more and worse de-
mandS. and at long last the
fact has to be recognized
that the bandit has to be
wiped out after all.
Moscow and Peiping are US
ing precisely the same tech
niques that Hitler used. They
are using the understandable
fears Of all the worlds peoples
of a nuclear holocaust to fur
ther their own aggressions.
They will agree, temporarily
and Enthusiastically, to call
of aggression only in return
for sacrifices that will, If pur-
sued, amount to a sort Of
| suicide for the free world.
