your part to keep it.
Here are a few thoughts I have
heard or overheard this past
week. One man, Joe Devers, about
As years old was saying" At the
plant where I worked they let out
so men without any warning and
we were replaced by a machine
that does our work and it takes
only two men to operate it. The
owners said they were sick and
tired Of the strikes that were al
most running their business 50
they put in this machine"
Joe is As years old, not consid-
cred an old man but he has walked
the streets for months and be-
cause of his age he cannot find
Job anywhere. He is a fine mech
anic and was drawing a good sal
airy.
At first he tried to find a SIM
liar job but failing, he looked for
any kind Of work that would keep
his family from being hungry and
cold.
So far, he has looked for five
long heartbreaking months and has
found everywhere men being laid
off from every walk in life.
He said his savings are dwind-
ling and he has to get job of
some kind soon or he will really be
desperate. He is one of the many
men who are out of work. too
young to draw social security or
any kind of pension 80 he wonders
what on earth he will do.
He took a small Job to keep a
little money coming in but he is
not free to go look for regular

jobs and the piece work job only
lasts two or three days at the
most.
He said he would never think of

THIS YEAR, PRAY

This year let pray for common things;
For common peace, for peace has wings
To soar across high mountain-sides,
To find the fields where hate abides
For common love for love spreads far
To gather mankind, like a net
Together in groove
OF happiness without threat.
For common homes where may live
Quiet and content, and dare to bring
His inner dreams at close Of day
And them without whispering.
For a common faith that beckons men
In peace and love beside his throne
Humble awakened brothers all
Never lost alone.

The debate on school integra-
ton in Georgia begun by HOPE
has come into almost daily head
line prominence in recent weeks
with the dehberat tons of the Sib-
ley Commission, a study group APP
pointed by the state legislature at
the end of its last session to hold
public hearings and then make a
report and possible recommended
tons on the school question by
May l. This was a week before
the federal ruling is expected on
whether or not the Atlanta school
board must put its court-accepted
pupil placement plan beginning
with the 18th grade and working
down a grade each year, into OPP
Grafton this September.
1t is still possible that the At
lanta schools will close, at least
temporarily Though Atlanta May
or Hartsfield says they won't close
for q single day because were
too busy making progress hereO.
Governor Ernest Vandiver was
elected on the promise Of total
segregation, but the new force Of
public opinion on the side Of keep
ing the schools open may give him
an excuse to retreat. Some political
observers in the state believe that
the Governor will try to wait un-
til Negroes are ordered into the
schools, so the federal court-rath-
er than the state legislators-will
have to knock out Georgia's segre-
cation laws, thus leaving him and
the other politicians Officially"
free from the blame.
Changed Climate
Whatever tactical stalls may oc-
cur. the work Of HOPE and the
Sibley hearings have changed the
whole climate Of the conflict In
Atlanta, eighty-five of ia witness
ses told the Sibley Commission
they favored keeping the schools
open in compliance with the court
order. In every one Of
the ten counties where hearings
were held, even in the most die
hard segregation spots in south
Georgia, HOPE had witnesses to
its stand. Even the most
optimistic observers were surprised
and encouraged by the fact that
not only Atlanta, but a total of
five of the ten districts where hear
ings were held had a majority of
witnesses in favor Of maintaining
public education even if it meant
"A lot of u.s." one
HOPE mother said, never dream
ed that the state was even split
on the issue"
The results of the hearings, and
the popular support of HOPE
(which recently presented a petit
ton signed by 10000 voters sup
porting open schools) does not
mean that there is a great wave
of sentiment for Indignation in
Georgia. HOPE does not take any
stand for or against Indignation,
but presents the issue purely as
matter of schools or no schools,
The Khan and the Citizens Council
elements are powerful here, too,
and the ladies of HOPE are sub
iected to obscene and threatening
phone calls from outraged segrega-
tionists. Georgia, like Alabama and
Mississippi, is one Of the states
that Martin Luther King called
the South of Resistance" but
the difference is that in Georgia
there is now an open debate, at
least on the issue OF school integra-
ton. Where there is a public dial
ogue, bringing the issues and argu-
ments into the open, there is hope.
In Alabama and Mississippi there
is none.

A CONSTANT theme of South
ern segregationist orators, waving
the banner of states rights, is that
traditions cannot be lastingly i'm
posed from the outside. They are
perfectly right; Reconstruction
proved the point. But they, as well
as we observers in the North, for
get that when we speak Of the
South" leg, the South Says
Never" the South Spurns the
Court, we really mean the white
South. This mistake in terminolo-
gy allows us to overlook the fact
that the South means Martin
Luther King as we'll as Richard
Russell, and that the greatest pres
sure for change in the South today
is not being imposed from the
outside" but is coming from with
in. II is the pressure of Southern
Negroes to do away with segrega-
ton in all it's forms, and it's most
dramatic and significant expression
is the movement that has grown
from the Negro student sit-in dem,
