rAGE six; rag CAROLINA TIMES SATURDAy, rEB. 14. 1>SS Hope For Gvil Rights Seen In Ike’s State Of Union Talk NEW YORK With President Ei«enhower clicking to the script ttiat was written in Chicago last July and rehearsed during the weeks of the campaign, the drive for the development of a construc tive Civil Rights program for the nation is beginning to take shape. General Eisenhower as serted from the outset that he believed an educational ap proach, vigorously pressed, to be the proper one to pursue in the quest for Civil Rights for all. This approach does not satisfy those elements who, all along, have insisted on compulsory legislation. But in the minds of . many fair-minded people, much can be accomplished in this di rection if action is backed by a slhcere determination to get the thing done. In the past there has been a great deal of talk about Civil Rights, but what has been missing, no doubt, is what Presi dent Eisenhower so clearly pointed out when he said, “jnuch of the answer lies in the power of fact, fully publicized; of persuasipn, honestly pressed, and of conscience, justly arous ed.’ One could not help being impressed by the sincerity of tiie president’s words when he said, “I believe with all my heart that our vigiland guarding of these rights (social and civilTMs a sacred obligation blinding up on every citizen. To be true to one's own freedom is—in es sence—to honor and respect the freedom of othei at ci\ Declaring that civil and so cial rights form the central part of the heritage “we are striving to defend on all fronts with, all our strength,” the president said, “A cardinal ideal in this heritage we cherish is the equality Of rights of all citizens of every race, color and creed. The Chief Executive eloquent ly stated his point when he said that “We know that discrimina tion against minorities persists despite our allegiance to this ideal," noting also, “such dis crimination—confined to no one section of the nation—is but the outward testimony to the per sistence of distrust and of fear in the hearts of men.” He said the nature of the problem it self “makes all the more vital the fighting of these wrongs by each individual, in every sta tion of life, in his every deed.” While be did not say so in so many words. President Eisen hower's statement that “he would reconunend an immediate increase of two in the niunber of District (of Columbia) Com missioners to broaden represen tation of all elements of our population” led to speculation m IbrFarm and Home that a Negro might be appointed to one of the posU. This was viewed as the first step toward ending segregation in the Dis trict of Columbia leading to ward “insuring that this capital provides an honorable example to all communities of our na tion." Mr. Eisenhower had promised during the campaign that if elec- ted'he would take steps to end segregation in Washington, and in his State of the Union speech, he said that “I propose to use whatever authority exists to end segregation in the District of Columbia, including the Fede ral government and in the armed forces. " The President renewed his pledge to employ the “lea dership of the office of the Presi dent cxercised through friendly conferences with those in au thority in our states and cities to make true and rapid progress in civil rights and equality of employment opportunity.'' Although there is a state law against discrimination in New York with enforcement powers, the priiTfipal emphasis is on education and conciliation. Those charged with the responsi bility of administering and en- fofcing the law report great progress has been made through the employment of these me thods. Without seeking to mini mize the effectiveness of the law as a deterrent or an educa tional instrument itself, it can not be denied that we stand to gain precious ground in the fight for civil rights if.the Presi dent’s' program is backed up by fact, fully publicized; per suasion, honestly pressed; and conscience, justly aroused. He has given every indication that he will do his part to get just that kind of backip^ Five Negro High Schools In Speaking Contest RALEIGH Five Negro high schools in Raleigh and Wake County have entered the State-Wide Public Speaking Contest "B^nsored annually by the North Carolina Bankers Association.
