Urban League Recommends Merit
System For School Teachers

OMAHA, Neb.-Integration of
the nations schools Oh the teach
ing as we'll as the student level
was urged here by delegates to
the annual conference of the
National Urban League.
Delegates passed a resolution
asking local educators through
out the country to re-examine
their policies and practices on
employment, assignment, trans
fer, and promotion of school
personnel.
A merit system for teachers,
the resolution said, rs neces-
sary and essential if we are to
have the kind of teaching and
counseling that adequately meets
the individual needs of all pu-
pills.
The leagues panel on school
indignation noted that segrega-
ton persists in many northern
communities because of COM
munites because of community
patterns of segregated housing,
and that many schools in Negro
neighborhoods are inferior.
These inequalities are a dang
er to the best interests of edu-
cation the panel noted. "The
use of competent teachers, both
Negro and white, is means of
providing an experience of in
tegration even in those school
districts which conform to COM
munity patterns"
The delegates also passed
series of resolutions on fair en-
ployment practices, urging:
/ Leaders of labor and in
dustry recognize the implications
of denying an individual fair
chance to develop his skills and
enter the occupation of his
choice.
q Agencies of government
responsible for enforcing fair en-
ployment practices to intensity,
refine, or extend their programs.

Governor OrveI E. Faubus
Closes Schools to 5000 Whites to Spite 6NegrOes

Governor Orval E. Faubus. in
another one of his drastic moves.
Friday afternoon, between A and
o'clock ordered the Central
high school closed along with
three other. high schools in the
city The schools were to close
as of 8 o'clock Monday morn
ing. The three schools were Hall
high, an all-white school, where
one Negro student has made APP
plication to enter under the in
tegration program of the school
board, Tech high, an all white
school and Horace Mann, an all
Negro school. The governor
closed the schools and has call
ed for an election for September
" to determine whether they
: should be opened segregated or
integrated.
The closing order came on the
heels of the Supreme Courts
decision upholding the circuit
court of appeals overturning the
district courts order for a two
and a half year delay in inte-
grafton at Little Rocks Central
high school.
The authority for the COVER
nor's action came from the leg
islators, when they gave him
bills in August to use at his dis
erection in keeping the Negroes
out of school who attended
on an integrated basis last year
under the protection of federal
troops.
The four high schools of the
city were scheduled to open
September Is, after being delay
ed on two occasions.
The governor stated that he
would close the schools before
he would let them be operated
with Negroes mixed in class
rooms. Nine were admitted to
the school last year. One has
graduated, and two are report
ed enrolled in other cities.
Monday morning found seats
for over 5000 school kids empty,
and teachers at their posts in
the classrooms facing the empty
seats, since the schools were
closed only to students.
The many teachers in Little
Rock facing empty seats with
no students to teach, didn't paint
any impressive picture of Ark
ansas, considering the many &C
cusations of ignorance dominat-
ing the state. But Governor Fau-
bus soon supplied the explana-
ton for the ignorance when he
said that the Arkansas constitu-
ton does not provide for a high
school education.
With the schools closed in
Little Rock the migration crisis
is at a stand still.
