DARRHLL MILLER CO., 415 S. RIVERSIDE
By CARTER W. BRADLEY
United Press International
Oklahoma City -(DPD Okla
homa's successful plan for in
tegration of its public schools
will continue without change
when a new governor takes
office Jan. 12.
In fact, the subject has nev
er been a major political is-
rue in this state, despite the
uproar so close at hand in
Arkansas.
Gov -elect Howard Edmond-
son told United Press Inter
national he will make no rec
ommendations for revising the
state school aid regulations
which form the basis of Ok
lahoma's gradual program of
compliance with the 1954 Su
preme court decision against
segregation.
Great Accomplishment
Outgoing Gov. Raymond
Gary said in an interview he
considers the peaceful integra
tion of Oklahoma schools to
be the greatest accomplish
ment on grounds that -the
governor's attitude set a pat
tern for all Oklahoma to follow.
Gary, under the law, could
not succeed himself. Ed
mondson and the 15 other
candidates who fought to re
place him avoided the racial
issue entirely. Hodge was un
opposed for the Democratic
nomination to his fourth
term, and defeated his Repub
lican opponent without segre
gation even being mentioned.
In 1955, the State Board of
Education, which includes
Hodge and six members ap
pointed by the governor, vot
ed five to one in favor of regu
lations penalizing school dis
tricts maintaining separate
facilities for Negroes. "
These regulations took ef
fect in January, 1956
Could Slow Program
Hodge said Gary "could
have made our job 100 times
as hard" if he had tried to
block or slow down the inte
gration program.
Gary, a former f school
teacher in southern Okla
homa, where Southern tradi
tions are strongest, said Okla-
homans ' adopted a Christian
attitude" which ruled out seg
regation as a political issue,
He also pointed out that tech
nical changes in the method of
allocating state funds to
schools usually meant higher
salaries for teachers whose in
stitutions did integrate.
Hodge said the board mem
bers got a few irate telephone
calls after they issued a state
ment in July, 1955, that they
would attempt to comply with
the Supreme court ruling,
They also received anxious in
quiries from school officials
in the so-called "little Dixie"
counties of southeastern Oklahoma.
VWe had our fingers cross
ed," Hodge said. "One impor
tant politician could have
spouted off on this subject and
caused us all sorts of trouble.
But it didn't happen
Hodge said only 20 school
systems in Oklahoma have
not yet started mixing white
and Negro students at the
high school level. A total of
190 high schools have inte
grated, and 168 elementary
schools are complymg with
the high court decision.
No Negro Students
"Of course, it should be
pointed out," Hodge said,
"that many Oklahoma school
districts have no Negro resi
dents, and our jracial problem
has never been on a par with
the so-called Deep South
states." .
Gary said the state legisla
ture could have interefered in
the matter but didn't. He said
he had talked with several
lawmakers who doubted that
their constituents would go
along with his administra
tion's approach, but had sold
them on it,
The National Association
for Advancement of Colored
People made Oklahoma a ra
cial battleground in 1946 by
seeking the admission of
Negro to the state university
at Norman. After a three-year
court battle, the NAACP won.
The. university no longer
keeps a record of students by
racial groups, officials say,
and several dozen Negroes are
enrolled. ' '
The NAACP waged a cam
paign last summer to force
downtown restaurants in Okr
lahoma City to serve Negroes.
Two large soda fountain oper
ators dropped their racial bar
riers, but the management of
a third restaurant, in a large
department store, refused.
Pickets in the third establish
ment, mostly school children,
faded away at the start of the
autumn school term.
Edmondson's campaign for
governor was based largely on
criticism of Gary's record,
but on the matter of integra
tion the new governor has no
MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford", Oregon, Wednesday, January 7, 1959 7
fault to find.
- - "Oklahoma has made a
good record on integration, in
sofar as state institutions are
concerned," Edmondston told
UPI.
"This includes higher edu
cation and the major portion
of our common schools. In
most cases it has been accom
plished without incident. A
good deal of the credit is due
to the attitude of Gov. Gary,
who accepted from the outset
that the U.S. Supreme court's
Ldecision was the law of the
land.
"He stated that this was in
accordance with his oath of
office and that he would fol
low that oath. I have no in
tention of changing the policy
that has been followed by
Gov. Gary." .
