Mrs. Eva James * * * SENATOR STRO URMOND Reports PEOPLE A FREEDOM LOST All over the nation school ad ministrators and parents are finding that the bureaucrats of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare make hard taskmasters. These ad ministrators have taken it upon themselves to dictate the com position of the social conditions in our public schools. In crowded cities, children are bused across town to strange schools and strange playmates m order to learn the current mathematics of the population mix. Although they are forced to play together to satisfy the whim of some bu reaucrats. the children are for bidden to pray together. HAKSH EDICTS Such a turn of events fre quently is the result of harsh edicts, issued without recourse by anonymous HEW function aries, who have no concept of the disruption and hardship such orders cause in a settled community School boards are placed in an impossible situa tion: if the board is of a mind to resist Federal intervention and Federal warnings about cutting off aid to which the dis trict is entitled under law, the only alternative is litigation be fore the Federal Judiciary. The recent orders handed down to Columbia School Board No. 1 are but an example of what Is happening throughout South Carolina and the nation. Over a year ago representa tives of ♦TEW traveled to Columbia to survey the school system in that city. The schools in Columbia had been operating under freedom of choice plans In which parents of school chil dren could decide which school they wished their children to attend, regardless of race. The emissaries of HEW, how ever, decided that the pace of so-called integration was not rapid enough under this plan. Some of the parents of the school children did not choose to adopt the peculiar racial "mix" which the distant bu reaucrats in Washington, D C. thought advisable. The parents of both races did not see fit to accommodate themselves to Washington's pleasure They saw no reason to deprive their children of the benefits of familiar neighborhood associa tions. cultural and economic in terests, and plain ordinary con- venience. For the Washington bureaucrats, race mixing seems to be an unhealthy fixation that warps their scale of values. CHILDREN VICTIMIZED Although HEW did not insist upon its demands to rezone junior high and high school dis tricts until 1969, the bureau crats threw the full force of their power immediately against the littlest children in the low est grades. They ordered that four elementary schools be "paired" by combining the first through third grades in two of the schools, and the fourth through the sixth grades in the other two. The plan hits hard est upon lower income people of both races who cannot af ford to move to provide their children with the environment they wish As usual, HEW singles out the youngest chil dren and the most defenseless groups to be the victims of its social experimentation. Parents who attended a stormy hearing last week were Indignant to discover that they had lost the freedom of choice plan and were unable to decide which school their young chil dren should attend. They dis covered that the decisions will be made In Washington. The Administration plan will have first graders walking up to I'/j miles, often crossing main high ways and railroad tracks, and passing through unfamiliar neighborhoods. Some youngsters who live farther than that may be bused up to eight miles to satisfy the Administration’s seal. Young brother* and sisters who were sble to attend the same school near their home will now be separated with the first through third graders at tending one school, and fourth through sixth graders another. The U S. Constitution says nothing about education. Even the States have seen fit to leave ordinary control in the very locality where the chil dren go to school. But beyond that, the ultimate responsibility for education is a natural right which no nation can legiti mately take away from the parent. Legislation which I in troduced in May would guaran tee the right to use freedom of choice plans. This bill, S. 3570, is pending before the Senate Constitutional Rights Subcom mittee, but its ultimate fate de pends upon the composition of the next Congre**. Unless such a bill is passed, more and more parents will learn that they have lost freedom of choice. /Sot prepared or printed at government expense) S.C. Student 'Survival' Ratio Shows Increase CCLUMBIA - The proportion of school children reaching the 12th grade in South Carolina public schools continued to increase in 1968, a new report of the S.C. Department of Education shows. White children in the 12th grade in 1967-68 comprised 60.6 per cent of the group which has en tered the first grade together. For Negro children over the same span of time, 38 percent were in the 12th grade in 1967- 68. Ten years ago, only 38.8 per cent of the white children and 13.7 per cent of the Negro children who had entered the first grade to gether were in the 12th grade in 1957-58. and the Negro proportion has nearly tripled -- 13.7 per cent to 38 per cent Compared with a year earlier, the holding power of South Caro lina schools was greater in 1967- 68 in the 12th, Uth, 9th, 7th, and 4th grades, about even in the 5th and 2nd grades, and a little less in the 10th and 7th. Hold ing power in the 8th grade show ed a decline technically, because special education students for merly listed in 8th grade sta tistics were placed in a separate category in 1967-68. Under the old system, the 8th grade also would have shown a gain. * * * BOND SALES Five years later, the white per centage was 48.6 and the Negro, 22.5. Thus, in just a decade the “sur vival* of white school children to the 12th grade has risen from 38.8 per cent to 60.6 per cent, Sales of Series E andH Savings Bonds and the new U.S. Savings Notes called “Freedom Shares’ during the month of June in Lau rens County totaled $42,985, re ports D.
