said at college they had no
time to 60 to the movies or
they were too far away from
the campus.
And since many freshman
found college was harder than
they had expected. many had to
spend a great deal Of their
vacation studying.

prefer public schools today, but they will
develop system Of private schools in pref
erence to supinely submitting to dictatoral
court decisions which they believe to be
erroneous. The question of private VS. public
schools has no place in the present contro-
versy
There are those who are attempting to
marshal the school children in an effort
to weaken.or overthrow Virginia's program.
Appealing to loss Of school activities such
as football and social events, vocal mi
nority Of unthinking students are insisting
upon the reopening of schools despite racial
Indignation. 1t seems to us unfortunate that
selfish appeals to inexperienced students
should be used to add even more confusion
to the complex problem.
These movements and others tend to di-
vert attention from the real issuc-usurpa-
ton of power and authority by the Supreme
Court. Had there been misgivings in regard
to the ruthless usurpation Of power, the
opinion of the u s. Supreme Court Mon
day supporting the Courts September y
decision calling for indignation I'd proceed
Immediately in Little Rock. Ark, leaves no
doubt An arrogant power overtonc domi-
mates the decision throughout The court
has shown abundantly that its interest in
public education is secondary to its determi-
nation for power.
Virginians can win! They must stand
steady. Upon Virginia rests a grave re-
sponsibility one which may easily change
the course Of constitutional government as
nvisioned BY the trainers of the Constitu-
ton. Certainly it is one which can not be
taken lightly. One month. one semester, or
one years loss Of established schools for a
limited number of students is small price
to pay for an underlying principle Of con-
stitutlonal government. We must stand like
men and defend the sovereignty of this
state and other states. TO do otherwise is to
betray those who have won for us this right.

CHEMISTS are now telling us that AL
n bert Elnstelns theory on the universe
might be right, after all. Respecting the OPP
inlons Of the late Mr. Einstein considerably
(and unlike many scientists Einsten chung
to the conviction that there must be God
and an order to the whole cosmic scheme)
we think this theory warrants mention
The general thesis long accepted has
been that space and the universe is infinite
Many Of the interpretations Of the writer's
Of the Bible lay this claim to the highest
sources. But Enstein worked out the theory
that there is shape and sort of circular
spacetime concept to what exists.
The natural question for the average per-
son to ask when considering such vast
questions is, that if there is limit to the
universe, or outer space, then what is on
the outside? That has always been one Of
the things about the whole concept of space
mat the human mind could not compre-
bend. The only way to resolve this in ones
mind is to conclude that there are MANY
things we on earth cannot possibly under
stand in our minds - or were not meant
to understand
But Elnstein pointed out that our me
chanlcal principles about matter, time. etc,
were all human yardsticks which did not
exist. All there is, he believed. was matter
and energy And there are, in sense
events, but not time And if the generally
followed theory that the entire universe
once originated from flaming ball of mat
ter or energy - exploding to be scattered
to the fartherest known void - is accented
then this becomes easier to believe.
Yet the human mind still cannot comnre-
mend outer space, or no space outside the
events OF matter and energy we know - be-
cause we have not developed our thought
processes to think in this direction.
In short, with the present limitations On
the way we think, and with the present me-
chanlcal concepts we have, we are unable To
understand the mysteries of the universe -
not because they are not understandable
but because our thought concepts and BRO
cesses are not in line with reality and the
ultimate truth.

The Fighting South Is an
up-bcat South 1"

1t is possible to believe that
neither bayonets nor the dreadful
closing of any more schools will
come to any more Southern states
And that Virginia and Arkansas
will manage to get their own schools
opened again soon on terms Of long
litigation that will let the best
hope the placement law be sue

From Virginia's Prince Edward
County Publisher j b. Wall, Of The
Farmville Herald, writes me of his
disappointment that 1.-THE legal stra-
tegists threw away the Pupil Place

President Eisenhower

PRESIDENT Eisenhower appeals to the
people to support the Constitution as a
patriotic duty. We appeal to President Ell
senhower to support the Constitution as an
oath Of office. The consequences to the
nation are fomented by the illegal en-
croachment upon our (the States) sover-
eign powers by the U. S. Supreme Court,
and the subsequent arrogant edicts and i'm
plementations When government by men
is substituted for government by law ser
ious consequences are to be expected. An
honorable, legal, constitutional defense can
be expected by Virginians, and millions Of
other Americans who understand the mean
ing and intent of fhe Constitution.

Virginia's Responsibility

TODAY'S problems are more serious than
at any time within our memory. They
are transcribed by few in the history Of
the nation. Virginians Individually must re-
main calm and collectively maintain good
judgement in thoughts and acts
Virginia is under attack by the NAACP,
the U. S. Supreme Court many news media
in the North, and those who would welcome
emotional confusion Virginia charted its
course in 1856, with the passage Of the Res
olution of Interposition. At a special SEES
sion Of the General Assembly in the fall
certain laws were passed for the operation
Of Virginia public schools. SO far none of
these laws have been declared unconstitu-
tional by court Of competent jurisdiction.
So far as we are able to determine Virgin
las program is intact. q
Differing from Arkansas, there has been
no mob violence. no attempt to use the pub
lie school buildings for continuance of edu-
cation by private interests. and no defiance
of the court orders. To be sure legal APP
proaches thus far to the federal courts or
the Supreme Court have been overruled.
There are no further appeals to be made in
the normal procedures. The time is at hand,
it appears to us. to press Nirgnia's school
laws into the legal battle.
Nirginians endorsed the program in the
election of Governor j. Lindsey Almond by
a two-to-one majority over Republican Ted
Dalton who has not supported the Virginia
program either in the General Assembly or
as a gubernatorial candidate. Governor AL
mond is dedicated to the Virginia program.
He is adamant in his determination to carry
through. He should expect to receive the
support of all the people who put him in
office. Equally important, he must lead the
people in the program
The opposition is using every means it
can devise to divide the people of Virginia
An issue of private schools vs. public schools
has been injected. Virginians have support
ed public education through the years They

Accused of Perjury

THE Readers Digest, in an article this
month, brings up an interesting ques-
ton. 1t is, in brief, that the Department of
Justice has failed to act on charges Of per
jury brought against eighteen individuals
by Senator McClellan's Senate Investigate
ing committee.
In the opinion Of many observers, one Of
the great failures of this recent Congress
was the fact that it did little to correct the
conditions which no doubt are depored by
most OF the members Of the labor unions in
the United States today. In spite of a de-
luge of letters from members of unions
which is said to total about 100000 the
Senate failed to pass a bill which was really
designed to correct all of these iniustices.
The bill had been watered down, for politi-
cal reasons, and was bill which actually
would not have done the job as it should be
DONE
Perhaps it was the best thing which
could have been pushed through The ma
Jorlty of union members in this country,
and the majority Of Americans, are tired
OF beng complacent about the situation
which prevails in organized labor today.
Therefore, the article in the Readers
Digest was definite contribution on the
American scene

counted On to the same extent
1t also is said that both men are
ambitious. but in a different way
Hoffa wants power and aggrandize-
ment in the Ia Dor movement,
Reuther wants this but as well he
wants political power This IS borne
out by the fact that Reuther is al
ways most active In the political
arena. while Hoffa limits his activi-
ties to the labor field
In my opinion neither man is a
credit to the labor movement, but
on the political front Reuther is
much more dangerous.

Gospel Preface
Lesson for October 5, 1858

THE FIRST three books Of the
L New Testament were not the
first to be written. Earlier than
these gospels are the letters Of
Paul. II 1t had been left to him,
there would have been no gospels.
for he seems to have taken very
little interest in the personal ca
