Segregation force w?rc dealt
two stunning blows Friday in
North Carolina and Virginia.
The Durham, N.C., school board
voted Friday night to admit eight
Negro students to four previously
all-white schools next Wednesday.
The city thus became the seventh
North Carolina community ' to
adopt limited public scool inte
gration. In Norfolk. Va., Federal Judge
Walter E. Hoffman ordered that
four Negroes be admitted to white
schools in the. port city, thus over
riding a ruling by Virginia's con
troversial state pupil placement
board, which has the power to as
sign all students to schools in the
state.
SO Negroes Ta Attend
The decision by the Durham
school board means that some SO
Negro students will attend pre
viously all-white schools as North
Carolina moves into its third year
of token integration.
The largest group will be at
Havelotk, N.C., where 17 child
ren of Negro Marine Corps per
sonnel have been admitted to two
white elementary schools. The
Lavelock schools opened quietly
Friday and the state's other inte
grated public, schools will open
next Tuesday-and Wednesday.
Elsewhere On The Racial Front:
A group of Negro children
were denied admission to the all
white Coleman elementary school
in Smyrna, Tenn., Friday. The
Negroes were children of Sewart
Air Force Base personnel. They
were referred to the superintend
ent of schools for Rutherford
County,
City schools opened quietly in
Atlanta, Ga., Friday for what may
be the last term before full inte
gration pressure begins. The city
school board has been ordered to
submit a plan of desegregation by
Dec. 1.
A showing of a motion picture
film with a controversial racial
angle was halted abruptly Friday
night at a drive-in theater near
Fayetteville. Ga., because the
sheriff feared there might be trou
ble between Negroes and whites.
The film was "The World, The

Many Nations Will
Soon Have A-Subs!
WASHINGTON ITI'-A scien
tific group has warned that many
nations soon will be alile to build
nuclear submarines which could
launch "a devastating missile at
tack against cities hundreds and
even thousands of miles from the
seacoast."
"The probability will . become
steadily grealer in the future,''
the scientists said, "that an in
ternal ional mischief-maker will be
able with impunity tu initiate a
nuclear holocaust."
In all likelihood, they said, the
attacking submarine would es
cape without even bein;; iden
tified, and the attacked nation
would not know who hit it.
The warning was issued by the
committee on Oceanography of
the National Academy of Sciences
in a report on iifternal ional co
operation at sea.
The report, just distributed,
said "nations must (ind some
way to live with the new threat
of nuclear - powered submarines
armed with long range weapons".
The committee did not suggest

Government officials said after
ward that as far as was known

soil at the moment.
In New Delhi, however, it was
reported that the army had re
ceived orders to dislodge Chinese
troops believed still occupying the
Longju border outpost four miles
inside India's northeast frontier in
the Assam area.
Crack Indian troops trained in
jungle and mountain fighting had
moved into the region and were
within two days march of Longju,
the reports said. The Indian force
was described as "large.'' but its
exact size was undisclosed.
Jt was understood Indian mili
tary leaders had set up an ad
vance operational command to
handle the troop deployments.
Considerable Chinese aerial ac
tivity has been noticeable over
the border area for the past few
days. There were reports the Chi
nese had dropped paratroops at
their frontier outposts.
It was learned that Air Marshal
S. Mukherjee, chief of the air
force, had been ordered to cut
short a visit to Cairo and return

Indian security forces in Cal

Wallowa Vote
Rejects Plan
For Schools
WALLOWA (Special i-Voters in
most of Wallowa County rejected
a lone administrative board or
ganization proposed recently by
the county school reorganization
committee. (
The proposition, however, car
ried in Enterprise and the Pratt
school districts but voters from
Joseph, Lostine and Wa'lowa over
whelmingly turned back the plan.
Enterprise led balloting for the
reorganization, 71 for and 17
against Pratt voted 14 for and two
against.
Joseph topped all voting with
I!I7 against and 31 favoring the
plan; Lostine was 95 against and
nine in favor; and Wallowa reject
ed the proposal by 120 to 19.
It is believed that voters re
jected the county-wide school ad
ministration proposal because a .
single county board could cause
early abandonment of all the
schools county-wide with the ex
ception of a single school at Enter
prise. Repeated assurance was
given the voters to the contrary
by the school reorganization com
mittee. It was pointed out that undT
the taw ell school districts not
maintaining high schools will be
forced to consolidate with dis
tricts which do have such schools,
and the obligation to develop some
type of a school reorganization
plan under such a slate law is
necessary.
