are needed in the South, not
only for social and economic
reason, but to help insure suc¬
cessful integration. Also, be¬
cause of the mounting rush of
applicants to all educational
institutions, the Negro colleges,
as accredited schools with high
academic standing, will be able
to serve all qualified students.
Among the individual opin¬
ions elicited by the survey were
the following:
“Today many white colleges
are willing to accept outstand¬
ing Negro professors. There¬
fore, we need our colleges and
universities to train Negro stu¬
dents as future faculty mem¬
bers for all the nation’s col¬
leges.”
‘.Most UNCF colleges have in¬
tegrated faculties. If there
were more institutions like the
College Pund schools, integra.
Fon would ,1>e a rea Nty now,
rather than a dream of the fu¬
ture.”
“About 98 per cent of Ameri¬
ca’s Negro business and pro¬
fessional men are graduates of
the UiNICF colleges. If these
universities did not exist, the
Negro people could not have
made such rapid progress over
the past few years.”
“The opportunities that a
Negro boy or girl has for higher
education are still limited. The
College Fund schools are lo¬
cated in the South where the
majority of college-age Negroes
live. With a shortage of facili¬
ties and the tremendous in¬
creasing need for services, these
colleges must be preserved and
maintained.”
“With expanding economic
opportunity for Negroes, along
with the growth of educational
opportunity, It is important for
the Negro to realize that his is
a two-way situation. Some of
the money he earns should be
given back to the community
and to the private Negro col¬
leges. This is a responsibility
which the Negro must learn to
accept.”

case with three judges sitting
en banc. Attorneys for the
rchool board claim that Judge
J. Sk ally Wright failed to order
the Negro plaintiffs to post
fcom , of $1,000 in the case. The
ir){; „is court caid lhal ti: ■
technicality not germane to
t quesls :h involved,
Tt is the concensus cl opinion
that the school authorities rcr-
ognize the fact that integration
must be accomplished at some
future time and delay Is wna:
is being sought at this time in
v a I n hopes that something
might happen.
The case cannot go back to
the supreme court. This court
has already sent down the edict
that segregation in schools is
unconstitutional.
In the meantime all schools
in New Orleans are segregated
and nothing in the least has
been done to remove the seg¬
regation bars. Schools are still
being constructed and labeled
‘ Negro” or “White.”
Recently this year a school
for the brighter children has
been opened tout no provisions
have been made for the Negro
chi i d 0 f brighter mind. This
just might be the area which
will be the battle ground for
real entry of Negroes In (he
white schools.
