goes back to 1642 when it was part Of the lands

Berkeley is considered one Of the most historic
plantations in Virginia. The land was granted In

a year later that the first Thanksgiving Day was
celebrated q year before the Pilgrims landed In
New England.
The house at Berkeley, built in 1726 by Benja-

sible in terms of risk of open
rebellion.
In framing his plan. Gen de
0aulle was able TO pick his
way with exquisite caution. He
succeeded in saying Just enough
to convince his friends that
they could support him with q
clear conscience. And at the
same time he managed to leave
unsaid precisely those things
which almost certainly would
have touched on desperate re-
sistance from IL million
Frenchmen in Algeria SUPP
ported by an important part
of the French army and a
number Of political leaders in
France itself.
Risk Not Great Now
AS things stand today. the
risk is not very great. Re-
sistance to his plan. though
shrill enough in some quarters,
has been disorganized and 1T
full. The army. reserving its
Judgment and pursuing the
war, is behaving itself. What
will happen after the reply Of
the rebel leaders in Tunis.
however. is still a very open
question.
For the leaders OF the Al
gerian National Liberation
Front (FLN gathered in Tunis,
the problem is really not very
difficult. Assuming that the
French terms, as they now
stand. are unacceptable, there
is nothing to prevent them
from replying with counter.

men. 1t is unthinkable that the
leaders of the rebellion should
be invited to Paris 10 negotiate.
Indeed. in the opinion Of many
observers here. 1t would be
exactly the thing to fan the
spark of resistance in Algeria
to open rebellion.
In framing their answer,
rebel leaders are under pres
sure from the great majority
who would like to see an end
TO the fighting in Algeria and
who understand the limits Of
French fiexibility In finding q
solution. They, too. can avoid
fatal pitfalls II they want to.

snrewdly they can provoke a
major political explosion In
France itself.
The French plan announced
by Gen. de Gaulle Just a week
ago called for free elections in
Algeria under international in
spection. After a return Of
peace. the people themselves.
he promised. would decide their
own future relationship with
France. The choice would
range from outright inde-
pendence to outright integral
ton with France. The alter
native Of self-government and
continued close collaboration
was the solution which the gen.
eral himself obviously favored.
These proposals have been
widely hailed as a masterpiece
OF craftsmanship. They have
provoked favorable comment

proposals which might sound
reasonable enough in them
selves but which Gen. de Gaulle
could accept only ct the risk
Of civil war.
So far as world opinion Is
concerned. for instance, they
might wen suggest that the
five-year limit for elections was
too long or that the French
Army should. be withdrawn
from Algeria before a vote or
that the vote itself should be
controlled" rather than simply
observed by the U. N.
Opinion Could Shift
Refusal Of any Of these con-
ditions by France might wen
swing world opinion back on
the side OF the rebellion.
Even more dangerous. how
ever. is the possibility that FIN
leaders will propose to come to
Paris themselves to negotiate
the terms Of a cease-flre.
It would not in itself appear
to be an entirely unreasonable
Last October Gen.
de Gaulle proposed 1t himself,
Offering guaranteed safe con-
duct to any of the rebel leaders
who wanted to talk. The offer
was rejected at the time and 1t
was not explicitly renewed in
the new French plan. Instead.
Gen. de Gaulle went out of his
way to deny the FIN any le-
climate right to speak in the
name Of the Algerian people.

of itself when common sense tells
you that you are all part of a
large whole Those who incite and
inflame are they whoforever mis-
interpret the lessons of history,
misunderstood the problems of the
present and misread the calcula-
tions of the future. Negroes and
whites must live together as bro
tlers not master and servants :
In this modern concept of living.
Nothing on earth, nor the fury
that man can make or imagine,
Will stop the American Negro
from gaining his freedom. Febore
we will be slaves, we'll be buried
IN our gravts!
This Is part of a world wide
revolution where black men are
becoming more than ever conscious
OF their dignity and their impor-
lance to the future of America.
From the dark bushes of Africa
to the bleak sands of the desert
from the frigid regions of the Ar
tic to the sunny chimes of the
Southern regions their struggle
goes on in full force; and their
cry Is not "fretdom afterwhile,"
but freedom now! WE JUST
WANT FREEDOM.
The decision should be to fol-
low men of ideals; not men in
high places who speak with low
voices. Central High school is an
institution of learning for the
sons Of men not for the spiders
webs and bats. Remember that
no matter how one criticizes the
systems of Russia and China. the
American system is not faultless.
Russia's schools are full some of

are so great, and so many hearts
In this city and nation are exper-
fencing many and varied emotions

one of humility of prayer and
Supplication, of serious petition to
our Heavenly Father by all peo-

for sound and sane minds, and for
the spiritual strength to be true
Americans in spite of difficulties.
Precisely because of Little
Rock, itself more than any other

cancerous evils and multiple dan

TWO standards of citizenship for
