Education Segi 4s Long As Pe Ellis Arnall Sa Segregation in schools for whites nd Negroes will last as long as he people want it, Ellis Arnall, ormer governor of Georgia, told i University Town Hall audience Ionday night.

The former governor said that he American nation is now faced with three major problems: Edu eation, health and the making of a living.
