Judge Rules Negro Children Must Attend Separate School
Judge Robert L. Taylor ruled five Anderson County Negro children are not denied equal protection by attending the Negro school. He noted Austin High School for Negroes has a higher rating than Clinton’s school and said a 1 mile distance to travel is not unreasonable. He observed white students from Clinton travel similar distances and noted buses are provided in all cases. The Dec 5 suit, filed by Allen, questions a state law banning White and Negroes from attending the same schools.
