The Atlanta Bus SEGREGATION Decision

Over in Atlanta, Georgia the other day, Federal
Judge ruled that the state and city bus segregation
laws are unconstitutional and according to press report
Negro leaders then urged Negroes to Immediately start
sitting with white people.
One thing that complexities the efforts of the courts
to create an atmosphere in which might develop the
favorable public opinion, necessary to making it posi-
BILE to abolish segregation by law in the South is the
widely held and deep-seated belief of southern white
people that the real aim of Negroes in their struggle
for the abolition of segregation for civil rights and
for frstclass citizenship is not equality under the law
but mixing with white people.
Thus the efforts toward the abolition of but seq
regation in the South is further complicated by the At
anta Negro leaders, upon the Judges decision urging
Negroes to start mediately sitting with white people,
This newspaper, having advocated the abolition of
segregation on buses part of its program
for southern nterracal cooperation and goodwill in the
face OF the decisions of the Federal courts the
abolition of segregation the buses area where
equality under the law be established without re-
curing or demanding the mixing of the races.
We certain that the courts in their decisions
aboishing segregation the Buses had intention of
denying to individuals, Negro white the right to re-
1use to sit by anyone regardless of creed color
In extensive travel in the North, and especially on
numerous visits to New York City, have watched,
mostly white people, enter the bus and stand rather than
sit seat with another occupant of different race
1t follows therefore, that the real intent of the courts
is to make it possible for bus passengers to enter and be
seated the bus without being assigned any special
section or seat, be ordered to from seat al
ready occupied, that another person may sit down.

cent in the neighboring territory many natives earn
wages higher than those of good many white men in
Belgium itself; middle class has sprung up; food

The Belgians deliberately set out to reach these
goals, apparently believing this sort of economic pro-

But all this careful planning apparently went awry

symphony orchestras on all major
dance festivals in more than six
hundred American cities, and from
Canada to Israel.

MEMORIAL OF A FRIEND AND
BROTHER"
Brother Atwood Mason has passed
and gone
Left many friends and kindreds
behind
Some are wondering Twill l be
next?
And he left some weeping and
crying.
We all shall pass sooner or later
Are we ready to answer when
death shall call
Because God is full of mercy you
see
And we have no excuse here to fall.
Brother Mason made many friends
you see
Yet when death called him he had
to go
Christ said if I be lifted up you
see
I will draw all men unto me you
know.
We can only bid him now good bye
Ask the Lord to make US all strong
When old death shall call us all in
To lay down our sword and come
home.
To a home where there is no sad
ness up there
And no one wants to come back
The golden streets we all can en-
joy
And no one to say Ego back"
Death is calling everywhere in
this world
And is calling both white and black
All who has been born again you
see
Shall rest forever and its AL true
facts.
We must be born Of the spirit Of
God
And washed in the blood of Christ
the Lamb
The lamb who died on the cross
So that very child Of God will not
be damned.
That awful day will surely come
To all both young and old
All who has not been born again
Will lose his precious soul.
Why should you stumble your way
to hell
When the Kings High is all free
Yet you have a way of your own
That's leading thousands of souls
astray.
Why pay for pleasures in this life
When all Gods pleasures are free
At the end of this life you have
eternal life
Yet Christ invites all sinners to
come and see.

Georges Housiaux, Socialist
Deputy, said in a subsequent
speech: eve are all responsible.
Too much time has been lost in
leaving the Congo to evolution"
Unemployment Held to Blame
A major cause of the riots, &C.
cording to both MN. van Hemel-
RICK and Housiaux, was unemploy-
ment among Negro residents Of
Leopoldville.
The Socialist Deputy added that
the unemployed received no assist
ance. He urged the Minister of
the Congo "to take measures about
this problem" without waiting for
the report of the commission of
inquiry.
The commission is to have nine
members. Four will come from the
Social Christian party, three from
the Socialist party and two from
the Liberals. The House of Rep
resentatives is composed Of 1O4
Social Christians, 85 Socialists, Fl
Liberals and two Communists.
The commissions date of depar-
ture for the Congo was not an
nounced but observers were told
it would leave as soon as posi-
BILE.
One complication in connection
with the inquiry is that M. van
Hemelrijck will present ito the
House next Tuesday a Government
declaration on the Congo's future.
"It will be read in an atmos-
phere that has deteriorated," M.
van Hemelrijck said.
Congolese Group Accused
Information has reached the
ministry, he said, that the rioting
had been planned by the Abako, a
Congolese tribal group, to coincide
with the issuance Of the Govern
ment plan for the Congo. 1T
seems" he said, "that the riots
took place earlier than planned"
It was announced today by the
Congo Ministry that Kasabuvu,
leader Of the Abako, had been
arrested in the Congo. Three hun
dred other persons have been ar
rested, it was said.

The New York Pro Musica, a
magnificent company Of 10
singers and instrumentalists
under the direction Of one OF
the most creative practical mu-
sicians Of our time, Noah
Greenberg, was heard last night
at the Library of Congress in
perhaps the most eagerly an
ticipated concert of the current
season.
They did not disappoint the
capacity audience which was on
hand to witness their latest
conquest of the Washington
scene.
Despite what might seem like
q rather esoteric repertory, I
know Of no group which gen.
crates so much local enthusi-
asm, and ] do not see how more
frequent appearances of this
wonderful group on the Wash
ington scene than a single
Coolidge Auditorium date can
possibly be avoided. Pat Hayes,
please take note.
This is a phenomenal en-
semble, as different from the
garden variety "antient mu-
sique" coterie as Serkin is from
Liberace. Here one can find no
quaintness, no genteelly feeble
technique, no awed prissiness.
For Mr.. Greenberg and his as
sociates, old music has just as
much blood and backbone as
new music - sometimes even
more. When Mr.. Greenberg
puts a piece on his programs,
he is not exhibiting an antique
from museum. He is project
ing a living musical experience.
Yesterdays concert was de-
voted to Monteverdi and the
Italian baroque. This sounds
forbiddingly musicological, but
1t proves to be music of grace,
subtlety and excitement in
practice.
Il; Because Monteverdi wrote no
instrumental music, several
works for. purely instrumental
combinations were set in stra-
tegic places in order to provide
variety Of tone color.
The lovely lines of Fresco-
baldi and the graceful curves
of Veracini are always well
come, but with such a wealth
of range in emotion available

in Monteverdi alone, their pres
ence in the program was an
added gift rather than a gen.
.uine essential.
Old Monteverdi fans recog-
nized in Mr.. Greenberg's pro-
gram several works popularized
in Nadia Boulanger's historic
recording of the 1930s. The
spirit was similar, the authen-
ITCHY was considerably greater.
Much more in evidence, how
ever, were unfamiliar works
ranging from such delightful
trit1es as the little "Scherzi
musicali" to big masterpieces
such as the "Lamento d'Ari-
anna" and a simply magnifi-
cent Ltany of the Blessed
Virgin.
Mr.. Greenberg even provided
neophyte composers with an
object lesson in how to pla-
giarize ones own works prop
erly, as Monteverdi's astonish-
ing setting Of the 150th Psalm
so brilliantly sung by Charles
Bressler is nothing more than
a reworking of the same COM
poSer's even more astenish-
ing duet. "zetfiro lorna"
In such a concert as this,
it is impossible to single out
individuals for special COM
ment. The whole was a CO.
operative venture. a treat from
beginning to end. And it is
characteristic of Mr.. Green
berg's modest and. unique
artistry that the audience left
the Coolidge Auditorium think
ing not of the participants but
rather of the towering genius
of Claudio Monteverdi
