Leaders Map I (Continued from Page One) “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 Federal Constitution by the YOUR NEXT STOP FOR STANDARD Olt PRODUCTS Bellinger’s Service Stations MINUTE CAR WASH AUTOMATIC TIRE CHANGE ROAD SERVICE AND LUBRICATION West Broad at Oak Phone 4-9233 W.
