Prince Edwards Consciousness

pELOW is printed an editorial, "Consci-
ence and Prince Edward" from the Viz
ginian-Pilot of Norfolk, in which some pro
vOcatlve questions are raised. No one has
the answer to some of the questions but GER
tain facts need to be pointed out which may
bring the problem into closer focus.
In the first place the white children of
Prince Edward County are receiving salts
factory education in a system of indepen-
dent schools which have been planned for
four years From reports of pupils, teach
ers and parents the type Of education is
comparable to that received in public
schools of the County. Disciplinary prob
lens have vanished and pupils are eager
in their efforts to learn. Incidently, the
people Of the county, with limited outside
aid, have substantially donated the funds
needed to meet the school budget
In the second place, the public schools of
the County are closed, not by the wishes of
any citizen of the County, nor its govern
ing board. The NAACP and its supporters
are directly responsible for the closing of
the schools, both white and Negro Federal
Judge Sterling Hutchinson understood the
situation in Prince Edward County He had
heard from the bench the evidence from the
first case to the last case brought by the
NAACP. A reading of the evidence and ar
guments in these cases would be revealing
The LOO Negro pupils are without
schools today because of the policy of the
NAACP. This organization is interested
only in total racial integration in every
phase OF community life. Their Target for
1868 published at National Headquarters,
20 W. 10th ST., New York 49, n y. outlines
program of total integration The NAACP
is not interested in education, per Sc, for the
Negro children.
Under the Perrow-A lmond plan. pushed
through the Legislature by narrow mar
gin IN 1858, program was set out to con-
tlnue education for all people in Virginia.
The Negro pupils of Prince Edward are ELI
glble for scholarship grants of 1921 90 each
from the Virginia Treasury Responsible
leaders are at liberty to form a corporation
to administer the operation of schools, and
we believe the school buildings may be
available by law at reasonable rental
upon request. Assistance was offered by
white leaders and declined Education could
have been provided by the Negro citizens,
had they shown a disposition, but such
would have been contra to the policy of the

What Kind OF World?

What kind Of world would our world be
If all men lived in onty,
And qreed and hate and strife should cease
And all men lived on earth in peooe9
What kind Of world would we have when
Kindness and love filled hearts Of men,
Ard all men would, while lfes way,
Live by the Golden Rule each day.
"A World like this Where love was king,
Would to mems hearts contentnent bring;
And they would thank our God above
Who taught Us to each other love-
Then men would Hail the season
BY gifted minds foretod
When men shall rule by reason
And not for gain or gold.
When man to man united
The whole world will be lighted
Like Eden was Of old.

the peaceful coexistence of all
states"
But the Soviet Premier said
Mr.. Adenauer must recognize
there are two German states.
He declared that Mr.. Ade-
nauers refusal to deal with the
East Germans leads one to
think that you do not want the
reunification of Germany, but
merely look for arguments to
continue the disputes and
thereby prolong the state OF
cold war"
The Soviet Premier warned
Mr.. Adenauer against using
West Germany's growing eco
nomic strength for the build
ing of military strength.
If the Western Germans
use all the economic potential
and manpower resources OF
their country for creating the
most powerful army in West
ern Europe" he wrote, "even
then the strength of that army
would not be equal to the power
of our army and that of the
armies of our allies.
Even together with its al
lies the Federal Republic OF
Germany would not be able
to equal our strength"
