FIRST of a Series
BY LAURA VIRGINIA HALE


On two separate occasions. when
given the opportunity 10 register
their preference at the polls. a
large IN or ty Of our Warren
County citizens voted III favor Of
segregated schools In 1856 AZ en-
dofsed the Gray Plan for pupil
placement by majority vote. and
last fall Governor Almond carried
the county , to | on an unenuivocal
platform of segregated schools
With their voices thus clearly
heard at the polls. our citizens felt
no need TO raise a vocal clamor Of
protest when the present dilemma
faced our School Beard. and are
willing TO trust the handling uf the
problem to these duly appointed
officials in accordance with our
state laws. II appears. however,
that this restrained attitude may be
interpreted as indifference. OF even
assent to the indignation demand.
and l have been urged. by fellow
citizens to correct this growing
misconceptions
Views Are Shared
In doing so. | am not speaking
officially for any organization OF
group but | have ample reason TO
believe that my views are shared
by most OF the responsible citizens
and long established families of
Warren County Having given Gov
ernOr Almond a mandate for Segre-
gated schools last fall. We Shall re-
main as solidly behind him now.
for that is our only hope for saving
our Virginia school system There
can be no partial segregation III
Virginia. because If one county
yields to this demand. the flood
gates are opened to the entire state
and Virginia will be lost TO the
alliance of eleven Southern states
which now constitute America S
fortress against this insldious Wea
pom OF racial tension which the
Communists are using in their plan
for a subtle victory" in our coun-
try.
| believe that if our Negro ciii-
zens were informed of certain facts
and reminded of the years of steady
progress they have made with the
help OF many white friends and
taxpayers. they will view this Ill
considered demand in a. different
light
