"If you turn these men loose

bombing their own churches to.

the charge. !

effect July 1.
The school has been operat
ing under a committee, com
posed of Miss Julia Belle Dun
can, Dean M. F. Shute and
Prof. J. H. Brockeit, during
the illness of President Trent.
The Board of Trustees named
Prof. Brockett, acting head,
, with instructions to carry out,
the duties of the president un
til a new one was named. The
board also named a committee
to search for a president, with
the understanding that Dr.
Trent’s successor would be
named on or about the open
ing of the 1957-’aß term.
Dr. Duncan, class of ’27 and
I supervisor of High Schools in
Norm Carolina, gatv the graiuat
-1 ing classes a challenging message,
• from the subject. "To serve ef
| fcctivcly in this day”. He began
.by saying that education could
! not be divorced form the Chris
| tian religion.
He. traced the history of edu
cation and showed that only those
who applied their education in a
spirit of service to others had
really proved worthy of the time
I and money that had been expend
i ed to give them an education. He
| told how the American people had
j developed education through ser*
vice. “Practically every president
! has left for history a significant
: statement on education. Thomas
Jefferson, the third President of
the United States, chose to have
inscribed on hie tombstone simply
that “here lies Thomas Jefferson,
! the Founder of the University of
Virginia”. In President Eisenhow
er's message to the Congress on
January 28 of this year. stated,
II quote, "In a nation which holds
sacred the dignity and worth of
i the .individual, education is first
; and foremost an instrument for
1 serving the aspiration of each per-
I son.
It is not only the means for
| earning a living, but, for enlarg-
I ing life, for maintain* and im
: proving liberty of the mind, for
j exercising both the rights and
i obligations of freedom, for un
i derstanding the, world in which
; we live”, unquote. Speaking again
1 at the centennial dinner of the
National Education Association in
j Washington on April 3 of this
i year, he said, 1 quote "Our schools
j are more important than our Nike
batteries, more necessary than our
i radar warning nets and more
| powerful ever, than the energy
i of the atom.” he said.
He continued, ‘ Out of the tnte
-1 rest in and the support of educa
j tion is derived the inescapable
I fact that, society has the right
Ito expect that the recipients of
the blessings of education from
the kindergarten t.o university,
will not only set as their goal the
pursuit of their own aspirations,
bn? service in behalf of others ’
He admonished his hearers
that they should be careful that
! they not get lost in the false idea
!of self-pride and adopt a feel
| ing that they would go forth to
; work for only themselves.
| 'The day of the shoe cobbler
when one man fashioned the shoe
; and built it with his own hands
has gone forever. And strange as
j it may seem, more credii, is apt
t.o be given in this day to the
man who sells the shoe than to
(those who make it. In place of,
! the one -man process, there has
| come the assembly line where san-
I itarv working conditions, shorter
| hours, and higher wages, have re
placed the personal satisfaction
which once was derived from cre
ativeness and independence," he
warned
"The opportunities for employ
; merit in industry, education,
Christian education, scientific re
search foundations, museums,
hospitals, government, medical
laboratories and elsewhere are,
breaking ail around us for those;

aware.
In fact, paradoxically, the same
advice given to students in the
past to prepare for two vocations,
because of limitations in oppor-i
tunities for employment, might, be
used in the future because of the
increasing extension of opportuni
ties in new fields. Such prepara

seemed to be very happy, and
very hungry
The spectacle was all right for ’
what it was until we came to the |
far end of these grounds and saw;
there, fenced off from the others,
a small group of "spooks” who we'
supposed call themselves Negroes.
Oh yes, they were eating too, and
they appeared to be having a very
fine time. This group was also di
vided into men, women and chil-!
drert, all decked out in their Sun
day best. On our way back from
the hospital, we stopped a colored
lady who was passing near this
scene of Southern goodwill and
asked her what it was all about.
She told us it was the annual
Brunswick Stew dinner given by
the Erwin Mills for its employees
and families.
Well, we see no reason why
the Erwin Mills should not
give an annual Brunswick Stew
dinner for its few Negro em
ployees i cleaners, laborers and
janitors) could even, heroine
so hungry for Brunswick Stew
that they would allow them
selves to be fenced off on the
! side of a heavily travelled
street just to get a chance to
eat this stevr. We certainly
didn’t believe that making
such a spectacle of themselves
and the group they consider
! themselves a part of or they
just didn’t give a rap. Which
| ever it was, believe us, it was
awful.

WHAT ABOUT THUS? Even j
i though several courts, one right \
! in Greensboro have ruled that a ;
i governing body cannot exclude .
Negroes from any public owned!
and publicly used property ncith- ■
! cr by direct operation or through;
lease or rental, the city marewer!
of Durham had the gall to answer;
a request for unsegregated seating ,
.in the grandstand of the city
; owned bail park made by a group
’ of Durham citizens with the. illc
! gal statement that since the city
! has leased the park to a private
! organization, it. the city, could
j not exercise any control over the
i seating arrangements there. That
; this case v. ill ultimately be set
tled (in favor of the plaintiffs)
is a far gone conclusion. But, why.
These court litigations cost mon
| ey. a lot of money. We have the
time to wait for our request to be
I met, we have the time even if it
takes 100 more years.
But why should we have
to stand by and see our money
being used in court maneuver
ing designed to deprive, us of
what we are justly entitled to.
It is our money you know
because wo as tax payers, must
help to pay the costs of these
court battles. We have to em
ploy lawyers to fight our bat
ties, we have to pay the law
yers and the court costs of
those who are fighting against
us. We certainly do not mind
paying those who expense our
cause in court but an injunc
tion should be sought to pre
vent the use of public funds
for litigation instituted for
the soie purpose of evading
and defying the taw. Those
: fraudulent practices now go
ing on all over the South is
! not only taxation without rep
resentation. it is taxation to
make us pay for not being
"represented. It is wrong in
conception and operation and
should be stopped . . , NOW.
A TERRIBLE TRUTH: Did you
know that you live in 8 state
where every elected public offic
ial from the governor on down
to constables have all dedicated
themselves to defying the law
And that, your elected state of
ficials have done everything pos
sible to enlist the defiance even

element into acceptance of this
defiance. At first glance, or rath
er, without stopping to consider
the matter you would never have
dreamed you were living in such j
a lawless state, would you? The I
above stated facts arc true, pain
fully true, terribly true. They are
part and. parcel of what Dr. Wal
do Beach of the Duke University
Divinity School told a conference
! on Human Relations here recent-
I iy
j Os course Dr. Beach did not go
i as far as we have gone in stating
I the case. His fartheresi point in
j that direction was when he said
| that "no where in this state are
i the people even making an at
: tempt to obey the law”. Maybe
j that is enough to say because if,
nowhere in this state are the peo-!
pie making even an attempt to [
obey the law that means that no.
state official is trying to have!
the law obeyed and so, the of
ficials must be a party to this j
lawlessness.

COMMAND RESPECT:
Those were the words or
some of the words used by
the international newspaper
‘'The Christian Science Mon
itor- ’ in describing the Prayer
Pilgrimage made by some 30,-
000 or more Negroes to Wash
ington, D. C. last May It. This
paper went on to say, “From
hero and there throughout the
country come occasional re
ports of individual Negro
boorishness, even violence
often provoked, no doubt, by
personal insults or latent
sense of group injustice. But i
thus far when American Ne
groes have taken considered
action as a race and under
their own leadership they
command the respect of the
nation.” All of this brings us
to the point of asking why is
our leadership so reluctant
about assuming real leader
ship and organize our people
everywhere as the Rev, Martin
| Luther King has done in Ala
bama. If this were done on a
national scale not only would
our efforts “command re
spect ' they would achieve re
i suits.

WORTHWHILE: The Book
Parade Club, an annual reading
program of the Richard B. Harri
son Library is a project that is
really worthwhile. This reading
program is designed not only to
keep alive an interest in reading
by school children during the
summer months when the schools
are not in session but also to help
those who failed or have reading
deficiencies to make up.
Boys and girls from the third
: grade and up are eligible to par
i ticipate in this reading project.
The reading of and making re
ports on ten books entitles a par
ticipant to a certificate from the
library. It is t.o be hoped that a
large number of parents will see
that, their children take part in
this worthwhile program.
