On
Education
Plan For
". The North Carolina Advisory
CommitteeVon Education made its
long-awaited report last Thursday
and recommended that state consti
tutional changes be made which
would give the General Assembly
authority to provide from public
funds financial grants "to be paid
toward the education of any child
assigned against the wishes of his
parents to a school in which the
races are mixed such grants to be
available for.education pnly in non
sectarian . schools. -Hmfonly when
such child cannot 'be conveniently
assigned' to a no'n-m'ixe.d - public
school." I' '
Another amendment recommend
ed to be submitted to the vote of
the"-people would provide for a
"safety, -value" suspension, by ma-r
jority vote, of operations of local
schools in a local unit in the event
of developments in such units of an
"unacceptable situation." The doc
nment explained that "it may well
be that before the people of North
Carolina will give the necessary
support to an honest trial of the
assignment plan they will need to
be assured of escape possibilities
from intolerable, situations."
The report expressed strong con
U4f howevejr,.; tjiafc proper use
df the assignment statute passed
segregation problem in the immedi
ate future. - This statute,-reported
the Committee,; provides for pupil
assignment based on "the best in
terest of the child assigned, includ
ing in its considerations, residence,
school attended during the preced
ing year, availability of facilities,
and all other local conditions bear
ing upon the welfare of the child
and the prospective effectiveness
of his school." ..' ''
Taking a hard and realistic look
ahead at the summer and fall, the
Advisory Committee reminded lo
cal school units that there is no
law compelling the mixing of the
races, while at the same time since
the IT. S. 'Supreme Court decisions
there can be no valid law compell
ing the separation of the races in
the public schools. The Commit
teen then recommended the use of
an assignment plan with transfers
permitted only upon -application
and hearing in due course and in
accordance with the provisions of
th 1955 assignment law.
"' After 'recohirtiendedj a special
session of the General -Assembly
this' 'summer, the Committee ex
plained that the proposed consti
tutional changes' '"will ,' give the
people of North Carolina 'confi
dence and assurance which are ne
cessary in order to aid the rebuild
ing of our school system."
These, proposed changes do net
"pose a threat to public education
generally in the State," the report
continued. "On the contrary, we
believe that they will provide the
necessary means to assure the sup
port of the white people so badly

tinue. If the white people do not
support a public school system in
North Carolina, there will be no
public education.
Members of both races were urg
ed to act and speak with restraint
and to avoid an open break between
the races which would make it Im
possible to approach any solution
to the problem. "An attitude of
tolerance and cooperation is re
sponsible for the harmonious rela
tions which the races have enjoyed
in. NorthCarolina for more than
50 years and accounts for the greatpnU8'c'
progress which the -Negro fctce has
mude ln'otirsState during that time.
GiWn time, we hope that this same
attitude can be re-established and
wMl aid greatly in the solution, of
this our greatest problem." -
The Committee concluded with
the belief that "what we have pro
posed, if adopted, will preserve
public schools and help preserve
the public peace for what we hope
will be a long time, but we stand
ready to do more whenever it be
comes necessary."
