irrespective of race, all qualified
students who seek admission.”
The leaders said they were
convinced that there is a “fun¬
damental sense of fair play in
the South," and noted that in-
tegration in public schools in¬
volving both students and
teachers is already working
well in some southern schools.
Stating that it was unfortun-
ate “that preoccupation with
the co-educational implication
of the decision” had obscured
the question of the quality of
education fur all children, the
educators said that “in two-
thirds of the United States, co¬
education of the races has been
going on for many decades with
no untoward effect.”
Again the group stated that
“Negro educators should not
and cannot afford to be a party
to any plan to nullify the
court’s decision. To do this
would be tantamount to sharing
in a plan to destroy the very
fabric of our constitutional
government.”
Realizing the difficulties that
will be incurred in some places
where integration will be at-
tempted, t the leaders said there
puld be the cooperative ef-
t in every community t0
plfen Ifin on the local level the im¬
plementation of the decision.
The planning should be done in
good faith and with an honest
desire to implement the decis-
ion rather than scheming to
circumvent it.”
The educators ^
said they were
not making the statement or
pleading to-M'groes alone, but
that they were concerned
“about the best education that
can be made available to every
child in the South.”
The group went on record
favoring federal aid to educa-
tion “in order that the per
capita expenditure in the South
may be brought up to a high
national average. We want the
white child to have the best and
we want the Negro child to
have the best.” This is not pos-
sible, they said, in segregated
schools.
Nearly, every big name in Ne¬
gro higher education was in
Hot Springs at the 'historic
session which produced a state¬
ment calling for immediate im-
plementation of the Supreme
court's ruling May 17 ruling.

! has culminated in an alleged
personal attack on a Negro
postal employee.”
The case of Roscoe V. Cooper.
Negro postman who on Oct, 25
, was allegedly beaten and kicked
Mr - Bowles while delivering
his mail, has been taken by Rpy
Garvin, a member of the legal
staff of the NAACP District of
Columbia branch.
Mr. Ccope rwas rescued from
his attacker by an elevator op¬
erator in the building and was
taken to a physician, according
' to Mr. Davidson. He will be X-
rayed later this week for possi¬
ble internal injuries from being
kicked by Mr. Bowles, Mr.
Davidson said.
Mr. Bowles was arrested yes¬
terday on assault charges and
arraigned in municipal court
here today where he asked to
have his case postponed be-
; cause he had not ha^l sufficient
j j ime to get a lawyer. His re-
quest was granted, and the case
was scheduled for trial on Nov-
; ember 1.
l Mr. Cooper was'rescued from !
mn for the attack he has re¬ ]
ported suffering at the hands of
Mr. Bowles revolved around a |
i dispute on whether the post¬
j man should carry the mail of
; the NAAWP in his postal bag
j or in his hand.

ing community should rightly
be ashamed. This type of law
enforcement’ administered or
applied with a double standard
based on race should not be
allowed to go unabated.
"It is completely obvious that
these policemen violated one of
the first duties of a man in
their position—which is cour¬
teous Ireatment of the citizens
they have been selected to
serve.
“Therefore, we are disturbed
by this report because we know
that the policeman is • the offj-
Cial conscience of the society; 1
they are the custodians of jus- ;
lice at the everyday level, I j
where it .is closest to the ordin-
ary person., And further, we i
vigorously protest because these !
officers, who performed so
badly, did so not just as men
wearing uniforms, but as the
embodiment ol law in this
community. Moreover, this in¬
cident of October lGth is one of
far too any instances of police
violence inflicted" upon citizens
of the Negro race.
"In conclusion, we request
that tire two guilty officers be
immediately dismissed and that
the citizens be given assurance
that this type of heartless bru¬
tality will not occur or bo tol-
