“that school officials will have
certain administrative problems
in transferring from a segre¬
gated to a non-segregated sys¬
tem,” but made dear the NAACP
“will resist the use of any tac¬
tics contrived for the sole pur¬
pose of delaying desegregation.”
Further, the conference
pledged an accelaration of the
Association’s “community act¬
ion program to win public ac¬
ceptance of the Court’s deseg¬
regation order from all seg¬
ments of the population” and
gave assurance that "the full¬
est resources of the Association,
including the legal staff, the
research staff and educational
specialists on the staff, will be
utilized to insure that there
will be no discrimination
against < Negroi teachers as a
insult of Integration.” It also
vAproved federal aid to educa-
tion “provided that any such
legislation contains the neces¬
sary safeguards to insure the
distribution of funds in accord¬
ance with the requirements of
the Court’s decision.”
At a press conference follow¬
ing the meeting, Carl Johnson,
member of the National Board
of Directors and president of
the Kansas City, Missouri
Branch, read the declaration
and reporters, radio broadcast¬
ers, television commentators
and newsreel cameramen ques¬
tioned Mr. Marshall on its
legal aspects and Mr. White on
other aspects of plans to carry
out the program adopted by
state leaders.
Mr. Marshall said, in response
to questions, that the NAACP
would press forward immedi¬
ately with the campaign of sub¬
mitting petitions to local school
officials to desegregate as soon
as possible. -'Each petition,” he
pointed out, will be accom¬
panied by a letter from the
branch requesting a conference
with the local school authori¬
ties for the purpose of working
out the necessary plans for
desegregation. Our people will
sit down on an equal basis
with the school officials *and in
good faith will seek to develop
a plan of action to eliminate
segregation.”
The Association’s legal coun¬
sel asserted that the court holds
that the right to an equal and
unsegregated education is an
individual right to which each
eligible person is entitled. He
said that the NAACP would de¬
fend the right of any Negro
student to obtain his educa¬
tion without segregation re¬
gardless of any local vvolun-
tary” plans to continue segre¬
gation.
Mr. White expressed confi¬
dence that the Supreme Court
ruling and the Atlanta Decla¬
ration would be greatly streng¬
thened by the expansion of
the Negro vote. “Already our
branches and state conferences
I re hard at work in a region-
ide campaign to get 3,000,000
Negro voters registered, by 1056,"
i-the NAACP executive secretary
said. “With this v 0 te plus that
of enlightened citizens we can
look forward to elimination
from political life some of the
present demagogues who plague
this region.”
Asked for comment on Gov
Talmadge’s reaction to
Court’s decision, Mr.
said: “An interpretation of
