Prince Edward Stand Steady

cording to news dispatch in Friday s
Times Dispatch:
The NAACP legal counsel has" filed a
motion in federal District Court lin Rich
mond) for permission to file a supplemental
Complaint in the Prince Edward county school
segregation case.
According to the NAACP complaint Negro
children are being denied public free edll-
cation in violation OF rights guaranteed by
the Virginia Constitution and the Fourteenth
Amendment to the United States Constitut-
ion''
If NAACP obtains permission to file its
supplementary complaint. it will ask the
federal District Court to:
% Restrain Prince Edward officials from
refusing to maintain and operate an efficient
system of free public schools, and
% Enjoin Prince Edward from conveying
leasing or transferring title to public schools
to any private corporation, association, part
nership or Individual.
In addition TO the Prince Edward board of
supervisors and school board. NAACP named
as defendants in its planned action the State
Board of Education and its superintendent,

Attack on Prince Edward was not

On October -. 1859 the Supreme
Court refused to hear an appeal by the
Prince Edward School board of a de-
cision of the Fourth Circuit Court or
dering desegregation in September 1859.
When it became evident that Negro
children would not be offered OPP
portunity of education, group of white
citizens organized corporation in Dec
ember and offered this opportunity.
Why the NAACP threw its influence
against the acceptance of this offer, is
not understandable
Why NAACP leaders discouraged
education for their people and in Febru-
airy organized training centers", adj
hitting that these centers were not
schools but morale builders, in lieu
Of an offer of educational facilities. is
not understandable.
From the entire procedure, we can
conclude that the NAACP is interested
in racial indignation more than educa.
ton. Prince Edward County was its
chosen point of attack and remains so
The simple fact is:
Prince Edward County reluctantly
has abandoned public schools. A system
of private schools has been established
for white youngsters Offers have beer
made unsuccessfully to establish pri
vate schools for Negro youngsters.

Babson Discusses Commodity Prices

9 - The DoW-Jones Industrial
Stock Average has declined from
a high of 635 on January 5, 1860
to under 600, from which it is
just rebounding Manufacturers
are wondering why commodity
prices have not broken cores
pondingly The main reason is
the increased costs of labor. All
the basic industries are well or
gained and producers are tilnid
about cutting wages for fear the
union leaders will call strikes.
Price Stability
This overall price stability
does not apply to all commo-
dity quotations. We have seen
widespread declines in whole
sale prices for foodstuffs; and
farmers expect to receive less
for 1860 crops.
However, owing to the de-
mand by consumers for small
quantities of foodstuffs which
they purchase at the supermar-
kets. retail prices have remain
ed high. 1t not only costs re-
tailers more to sell small items,
but the cost of packages and
displays is greater Supermar-
ketS present a fine show which
appeals to consumers, but in re-
atty their prices are not so low
as is generally supposed.
Supplies Adequate
In most cases, supplies of
raw materials are sufficient or
can be increased rapidly if
prices should rise. Therefore,
changes in most commodity
prices may be downward rath-
er than upward for while. An
analysis of price trends should

some details of the first meet
ing between the two men since

Mr.. Hagerty said Senator

Mr.. Eisenhower will meet
Senator Kennedy at the north
portico- main entrance to the
White House-and accompany
him to the Presidents Office for

arrives and departs, Mr.. Hag-
erty said. In response to a
question, Mr.. Hagerty said he
would not call the units an
honor guard. A military band
also will be at hand on the
White House grounds.
Asked whether it was Gus
tomary to have military units
present when the President OF

successor, Mr.. Hagerty recalled
that when Mr.. Eisenhower
came to Washington in 1852 to
call on former President, Tru-
man, troops lined Pennsylvania

him from the airuort.
