Light on Public School Integrotion

has been a steadily worSen-
ing misconduct problem in
the public schools"
The report gives details of
the injuries and property
damage. 1t tells of the inter-
views with as many eyewit-
nesses as could be persuaded
to cooperate.
The fact stands out that
conditions in the schools pro-
duced the tragic episode, al
most unparalleled in the hts
tory Of the country, as mob
violence erupted during and
after a game between teams
from an almost all-white
Catholic high school and an
almost all-Negro public high
school. There were $4,000 peo-
pie in the stands. Officially
listed at the time as injured
and requiring medical treat
ment we're 35 white persons
and seven Negroes. The new
report confirms that several
hundred other individuals
were attacked and sustained
injuries of one kind or
another.
The lesson which all this
teaches, Of course, is that
Federal troops occupying the
campus Of the University of
Mississippi do not furnish
the answer to the indignation
problem. Nor do the constant
stories in the press about the
students jeering Of James
Meredith touch any more
than the superficial aspects
Of the controversy. The cru
SADIE for votes by the politi-
clans who wish to capitalize
on indignation" has ignored
the fundamental human as
poets.
In the public schools in
Washington 83 per cent of
the students are colored. In
tegration of the races here
is no different in its OBJ
stacles than those faced in
the South.
The problems Of human
relationship will certainly
never be solved by bayonets
or by Sit-in demonstrations
or Freedom Rides" or other
agitation of that kind. Con-
formity by coercion will
never succeed. An adjustment
OF race relations will come
only when both sides deter
mine what is the practicable
and human thing to do, ir-
respective of the legal phrase
ology Of Federal court orders.

That Racial Move Requires Preparation

place. Uniformly came the
response, Why should we be?

conduct every day in the

The statement by DR.. Mac
earthly also declares that
teachers are reluctant to re-
port to the police misconduct
in everyday life at the
schools, and that crime goes
unpublished.
The main report Of the
committee, rendered after
five weeks of investigation,
speaks Of an atmosphere of
lawlessness" in the public
schools. The report says in
part on this point:
Testimony before the full
committee developed an
awareness Of administrative
lack of control over hoodlum
elements in the school sys-
tenn and a deteriorating con-
dition in mass audience
events outside the school
buildings.
Violence, assaults, disre-
spect Of teachers are acts of
an undesirable element Of
students. An atmosphere of
"reminiscences has discour-
aged the personnel Of many
schools and caused a CITY,
wide lessening of discipline
standards. Fear RACES
through many school build
ings which have become
tramping grounds for outside
influences, including thugs,
hoodlums, and persons of the
lowest character.
THE school administration
has difficulty in coping with
this situation. The morale of
many teachers has suffered
and the percentage of resig-
nations and transfers has in
creased. Nevertheless, school
officials fail to cooperate
with police and report viola
tons Of the law nor do they
maintain a city-wide report
ing system of incidents Of
misconduct. With such a cli-
mate in the school system,
students receive little disci-
pline, little guidance and lit

DAVID LAWRENCE

A ray of light has come at
last into the controversy over
"!ntegration" in the public
schools. 1t came as a result Of
the Thanksgiving Day race
riot here when the football
teams from two high schools
one almost entirely white
and the other predominantly
colored-met in an all-city
championship game.
In keeping with the sincere
efforts of many people to
find some human solution Of
the friction over school in
tegration, the local superin-
tendent Of schools, Carl F.
Hansen, appointed a special
commission of prominent men
and women, Negro and white,
to investigate what happened
and to make recommen-
dationS.
The report is a lengthy one
and deserves national atten-
ton. 1t should be widely pub
licized, at least among edu-
Gators who are graphing
with the problem of enforced
indignation in the public
schools. DR.. Shane MacCar-
thy, who was a prime mover
in the national program for
youth fitness under President
Eisenhower, headed the COM
mission. In his letter submit
ting the report, he says in
part:
Indignation is a most COM
plicated undertaking. 1t is
not accomplished simply by
opening classroom doors. 1t
is not brought about by a
paper decision to recognize
the rights of fellow citizens.
1t is not achieved by an
emotional urge that follows
the prodding of the heart
rather than the leadership Of
the head. We do a grave dis
service to boys and girls of
both races when we direct
them to integrate and thrust
them into indiscriminate
mingling without the thor
ough preparation which is a
mandate for success in any
undertaking"
Some Of the teachers in the
city's schools declined to
testify at the commissions
hearings. Some did so pri-
vately. DR.. MacCarthy adds:

Basic Factor
For Decision

v. Slf, can you 1oreSee any
situation in which that phrase
"in the supreme national in
terest" might have any prac-
tical application, or why it was
included in the pact?
A. Because ! don't think the
British wanted to put the kind
of investment we are talking
about into the development OF
Polaris, which would cost them
a good deal of money, unless
they felt there might come ar
occasion, conceivably, where
the British would be alone and
would need this force. They
wanted to feel free to have it

such a situation. ! suppose they
might argue that Suez might
have been isolated, although as
a practical matter l dont
think they were then. in the
nuclear sense, but they might
If they we're threatened with
a bombardment of their island
They might feel they wanted
to have the capacity to respond
OF at least they had the ca
pacity, and If there was an at
tack, TO respond.
We hope the situation will
not come where they are iso-
lated that way again. But J
think they are conscious OF
that history. That doesn't
mean where they threatened
to use nuclear weapons against
NaSSer, but where they were
threatened with a nuclear at
tack by the Soviets, they might
not have felt they had suffi-
cient means to respond. This
is when there was a division in
the alliance. SO l think that
is probably in their minds.

In order to provide greater
cohesion in the alliance, we
don't want to have a situation
develop which provides less
cohesion.
I would say it will take a
good many weeks, possibly
months, to work this out. II

The Senate paid tribute
this week to one of its truly
distinguished members, Sen
ator Russell of Georgia, on
the occasion of his 30th an
niversary of service there.
The historic chamber is &C
customed to eulogy. Rarely
is it so we'll deserved.
Senator Russell is acknowl-
edged to be one of the best
brains in Congress. A whole
body of legislation, particu-
larly that affecting agricul-
ture, appropriations and the
military, is the better for
his skills and understanding.
In his long service he has
had no colleague who is not
In his debt for help and for
a personal consideration en-
bellished by an exquisite
courtesy.
Because his native State
has run athwart the stream
Of American destiny in some
vital issues of modern times
notably civil rights - the
Russell services to the Ma
ton have been obscured and
his national promotion pre-
vented. The Senator chose to
stand by Georgia and he has
many times paid the debt he
apparently felt he owed his
people. 1t seems he will go on
paying it in the rules fight
coming up again.
The applause for him rang
sweetly in the ears of his
friends. But philosophic con-
siderations intruded. What
would be really interesting
is what so able a man, now
a vigorous Sc, thinks of the
changes he has seen since
he came to the Senate the

same year Franklin Roosevelt
was inaugurated for his first
term. What he foresees about
the role of Congress and the
Executive would be possibly
even more valuable.
He is unlikely to tell. SEN
ator Russell is neither austere
nor unapproachable; on the
contrary he is the best Of
company. But his personal
reserve is illustrated by his
biography in the Congress
sional Directory which con-
sists of one line: Richard
Brevard Russell of Winder,
Georgia.
He is not hiding his age
for he is not yet a patriarch
like his only senior in the
Senate, Senator Hayden of
Arizona, IS. Senator Russell
was, in fact, a wonder boy of
his time with this difference
from some of today's crop.
When he came to the Senate
at SO he had served in the
State legislature 10 years,
had been speaker of the State
Assembly and Governor.
Certainly he knows that
he is surrounded by change,
even at home. Atlanta is in

ginning to be so in fact; it

FOttOUtHg Is Lne LeTL OF q
partial transcript OF a back
ground interUietD NTH PreSi-
dent Kennedy at Palm Beach,
Fla, on December 81, as re-
leased By the White House
yesterday:
@. Mr.. President, could you
talk some about how you see
the pact of Nassau being car
ried out and the problems that
are before you on that?
A. Well, I think it would
seem to me that if anybody
bothered to read the pact in
detail, we made several offers
to the British. First, the British
position on it has been, I
know, somewhat critical. In
the first place, we did offer
the Skybolt. We offered a So
so split in finishing the Sky
bolt, even though we, our
selves, weren't going to buy
any, and the British could
have bought them. So I don't
think it can be charged that
the United States was in any
way attempting to make a
political decision rather than a
technical one.
The fact is, this administra-
ton put a lot of money into
Skybolt. We increased the
funds substantially after 1861
in an effort to finish it sue
cesSfully. We speeded up the
program. AS I say. at Nassau
we offered to go $3.50 in COM
plotting the research even
though we were not going to
buy it, so that the British
would not lack its own deter
rent II 1t chose to exercise that
option. So that was one Of the
choices.
The Decision for POlaris
The other was, Of course, the
Hound Dog. which presented
technical problems for the
British, and the third was the
Polaris. I think that the British
selected the Polaris option
first because of the technical
problems connected with Sky
bolt and, secondly, because
Polaris offers a hope Of being
an effective deterrent for a
much-longer period than Sky
bolt, through the los.
In addition. l do find II
peculiar that these people who
say that we are trying to phase
out the manned bombers and
have an over-reliance on mis-
siles, when the Skybolt is the
most complicated missile Of
them ALTO read that point of
view, you would think that
Skybolt was a gravity bomb
rather than a missile which is
going TO fly itself from a NOV
able base 1000 miles. so Sky
bolt is the top Of the art Of
missilery.
You are almost going around
a full circle TO use the Skybolt.
What you are joining together
is a weapon which time is deal
ing some blows to-which is
the bomber-and you are join
ing the most sophisticated
missile and putting them to-
gether.
British Independence
II seemed 10 us with our
other alternatives we we're
better off 10 put our money
someplace else. But in any
case, I felt that the offer we
made 10 the British was In
keeping with both our techni-
cal and moral obligations 10
them. and ! think that the
arrangement we made was In
the best interest Of the United
States, Britain. and the alli-
ance, because the British will
have their deterrent. II will be
Independent in moments Of
great national peril. which Is
really the only time you con-
slider using nuclear weapons

be over-generalizing, or over
simplifying. but a few things

in recent months. like Cuba,
the Job at Nassau, the men,
ton of the Congo, have given
me the impression that you
are moving in asserting a
more positive leadership for
the United States in this al
lance and in the world, having
in mind what you said in the
television interview about how
we have been financing the
thing all along.
Are you conscious of such a
deliberate effort to move into
more positive assertions?
A. Well, / think we are more
aware, probably. that we are
going to incur at intervals
peoples displeasure. This is
sort Of a revolving cycle. At
least, l think the United States
ought to be more aware of 1t,
and I think too often in the
past we have defined our lead
ership as an attempt TO be
rather well regarded in all
these countries. The fact is.
you can't possibly carry out
any policy without causing
major frictions.
Policy In The Congo
The Congo is so difficult
that no one can predict what
the results will be, but at least
we have been following a policy
somewhat different from that
Of Great Britain, and some
what different from other
countries, in giving the United
Nations more direct support.
Obviously, there are elements
in Europe which have opposed
that policy. We have a similar
problem In the case OF India
and Pakistan, where we be-
lieve that the defense OF the
subcontinent can only be as
sured by reconciliation between
these countries, but obviously
both Of them get dissatisfied
with US because either the
negotiations don't proceed fast
enough In the case Of Pakistan,
or India feels that the United
States is attempting 10 put too
much influence into a settle
ment.
SO / think what we have 10
do is TO be ready TO accept a
good deal more expressions OF
newspaper and governmental
opposition 10 the United States
In order TO get something done
than we have perhaps been
willing 10 do in the past l
don't expect that the United
States will be more beloved,
but ! would hope that we could
get more done.

BACKGROUND INTERVIEW
Kennedy Discusses Nassau

anyway. 1t will serve as a basis
for a multi-national force or
multi-lateral force.
1t may be that that will not
develop. There are technical
problems connected with it.
Our whole policy has been
against the diversion of re-
sources towards independent
national deterrents. We think
it doesn't make strategic sense,
and we think it really would
cost the Europeans a great
deal Of money.
We have been putting in,
as has been said before-we
are spending perhaps SIS bill
lion this year for our nuclear
deterrent, which is as much as
the budget of all of Europe
combined for all its forces. To
begin to have these national
deterrents which will amount
to a fraction Of our deterrent
really seems to me to be a
waste of resources and to take
resources away from the build
up Of other forces which l
think are more vitality needed.
NATO Problem In 1863
SO we have the problem of
whether-on the other hand,
there is the desire of Europe
for a European deterrent or
greater control over the de-
terrent. The question really
would be whether a deterrent
composed of a multi-national
force made up Of the British,
the Americans, and French
elementS-whether they would
satisfy the desires of other
Europeans to have a greater
control over the use of nuclear
weapons.
We have proposed to satisfy
the others, the multilateral
force, the multilateral ele-
mentS of this force. This
is a matter Of concern, Of
course, TO several other coun-
tries in Europe besides France.
! think this is one of the great
problems of the alliance of
l963-whether the alliance will
begin to fragment into national
deterrents which will cost great
sums Of money, and cause po-
litical and strategic imbalances,
or whether it will be possible
for us to work out some ar
rangements which will give
Europe a greater degree and
feeling Of security.
u. S. Bound 10 Europe
There is always the argument
in Europe that the United
States might leave Europe,
which is, Of course, in my opin-
ion. fallacious, because the
United States can never leave
Europe. We are too much
bound together. II we left Eu-
rope, Europe would be more
exposed TO the Communists.
II is just that until the United
States is ready TO give up It's
struggle, we are not going 10
leave Europe. so we are not
going TO leave Europe.
But, nevertheless. there are
those who argue that we are
going 10 leave Europe, or that
this complete control over the
nuclear weapons gives the
United States too great a voice
in the destiny Of Europe.
Therefore. we are attempting
10 lessen that feeling OF over
dependence by this multi
national proposal, and the root
OF II is the Nassau agreement
or the seed OF 1t. Whether II is
going 10 flower or not. we
ought TO be able TO tell in 1868.
II will depend partly. as l say,
on the political decisions, the
technical decisions. OF the.
French and ourselves.
This isnt just French prob
lem. but II is our own and the
British, and also the response
OF the other members Of NATO.
