CLAIMS 'RIGHT' TO GIVE BOOKS TO ALL-WHITE SCHOOLS WASHINGTON - The State of Mississippi told the Supreme Court last week it should have a legal right to provide free textbooks for pupils attending all-white private schools "re gardless of how the schools got that way." The contention was made in response to a challenge by the NAACP Legal Defense Fund that the schools are giving white pupils "an alternative to public intergrated education." At stake is about a half million dollars in textbook aid to 148 private schools. The suit brought on behalf of four black public school pupils asks that the textbooks be denied private school unless they have admission policies and inter grated faculties and student bodies. NBNS HAWKINS PROPOSES DAMAGES FOR BLACK SOLDIERS WASHINGTON - Rep. Au gustus Hawkins (D.Calif.) last week proposed that $16 mil lion be paid to the survivors of 167 black soldiers who were wrongfully discharged from the army 1906. Hawkins Intro duced legislation to authorize the payments to two men who still live and to "correct the injustices done to the 167 black soldiers of the 25th in fantry regiment." The soldiers were dishon orably discharged by president Theodore Roosevelt on the as sumption that they were m volv ed in a shooting spree in Brownsville, Tex-either direc tly or through a "conspiracy of silence" to protect the guilty. However, last year Army Secretary Robert Froenke said the discharges were a "gross injustice" and ordered they changed to honorable discharge es. Hawkins said his bill calls for the lump sum payment of $40,000 to each of the men or to their families of 14 men who were allowed to re-enlist in 1910 would receive a pay ment of $55,000 representing pensions lost because of the discharges. Continued on Page 2A Report Claims Blacks Taking Step Backward RALEIGH - The propor tion of black principals in i si i; 1-K . . . iNonn uaiunna puouv uiw decreased significantly when de segregation was intensified in 1969. A survey of 16 North Caro lina school districts by the U. S. Civil Rights Commission shows 105 principaisnlps were held by blacks in 1968 but only 84 of those principalships were held by blacks in 1970. The number of black principals de creased by 21 while the total number of principals decreased by only 9. "If this reflects the situation in all 152 North Carolina school units - and we believe it does -then obviously black principals are being removed from our school systems in wholesale numbers," said E.B. Palmer, associate executive secretary of the North IS&rolina Association of Educators. "This is frightening to the black community. We think it should be disgusting to the white community, ttpwtor put a stop to this inhumane practice," Palmer said, "pia ci educators should be employed in our schools at least in pro portion to the black student population." According to the survey. 36.8 per cent of the principals in the 16 school systems were black in 1968. But in 1970 only 22.3 per cent of the prin cipals were bladt. During that time the total number of principals went from 386 down to 377 while the number of black principals went from 105 down to 84. "Obviously blacks were re moved and whites replaced them," Palmer said. "In three of the school units the total number of principalships ac tually increased by four while the number of black principals decreased by five. Four other school units had no loss of total principalships but the number of black principals in those units decreased by 10." The Civil Rights Commis sion survey of black principals follows a similar survey of black teachers in 20 school systems. rne teacner survey iouna that the number of black tea- . 1 J ,1 J 1 14C Ji..inrf cners oecuneu uy itv uuuiig the same two year period while the total number of teaching. positions increased by 22.
