High Court to Rule on School Segregation WASHINGTON UP) - The Su preme Court wound up Its current term Monday by foreshadowing a potentially historic decision on seg regation of White and Negro chil dren in public schools. ; Gov. James F. Byrne of South Carolina has said if ; his state should lose the right to segregate Children South Carolina will aban don its public school system. Georgia, Virginia and Alabama have taken steps that could lead to dropping public schools in fa vor of private schools if segrega tion is outlawed. The Supreme Court said it will hear, after it meets again next Oct. 6, arguments on two appeals by Negro parents who say their chil dren are stigmatized as Inferior by having to attend all-Negro schools. The cases originated in Topeka, Kas., and Clarendon County, S. C. In both places the . appeal is against segregation pure and simple, not over facilities offered in segregated schools. Thus, the Supreme Court's ruling could af fect public school segregation wherever practiced. In other actions of its final opin ion day before recess,; the high court said the Railway Labor Act bars unions from taking jobs from Negro workers to give them to White workers.
