Mr. and Mrs. Van Sombeek,
VOTE AGAINST THE PEARSALL PLAN!
1. The Pearsall Plan was designed in defiance of,
rather than in compliance with, the United States
Supreme Court’s decision of May 14,1954.
2. The Pearsall Plan could lead to destruction of,
rather than preservation of, North Carolina’s
public school system.
3. The Pearsall Plan is undemocratic, it is. unchris
tian and is contrary toihe ideals and concepts of
progressive education.
4. The Pearsall Plan enables 15% of the voters in a
school district to close the school when they
think conditions are “intolerable.” That makes
it unfair to the other 85%.
5. The Pearsall Plan could destroy our present uni
form system of public education and set up a
heterogeneous system ,of ungradad, unaccredit
ed, fly by night private schools.
6. If public schools are close4 and tutitiod grants
are given by the state to private schools, then the
state would be supporting private schools.
7. The proposed grants to private schools are inade
quate to maintain our present school standards.
8. Teachers would have less job security because
there would be no permanancy to jobs under un
predictable local control.
9. Passage of the Pearsall Plan could lead to.a break
down of uniforjn teachers pay scale, because each
private school could set up Its own system of
rating and paying. The salaries likely would be
lower.
10. The legality of the Pearsall Plan is doubtful.
CAN A STATE DO INDIBECTLY, WHAT IT IS
FORBIDDEN TO DO DISECTLY?
11. Passage of the Pearsall Plan would place in the
t hands of a few (15%) a weapon potentially dan
gerous to the preservation of any school In North
Carolina.
12. Passage of the Pearsall Plan would encourage
. some communities to take backward, instead of
forward steps in the matter of public education.
13. Passage of the Pearsall Plan will not engender
better race relations but will likely create bitterr
no(M.
14. Every voter sbovld vote against the Pearsall
Plan because it Is undemocratic, unchristian, un
necessary and is designed to break down rather
than uphold the law of the land.
15. Passage of the Peanall Plan will turn North
Caroliiui around from Ite fdrw^d marching step
of progress in public educatioa to a bae^ard
miuiiag pace of retn^easion.
