New Angles In Fight on Federal Aid to Education
James Marlow reports how federal aid to education faces possible blockage in Congress in 1956 over preventing funds from aiding states that maintain racial segregation in public schools. NAACP pushes for a ban on federal education funds to nonintegrating states, while South ern Democrats resist. Rep. Powell aims to attach the ban to any aid bill, with support building in Congress. Clarence Mitchell argues for a broader restriction on such funds, but Harold Hunt notes enforcement rests with federal judges unless Congress acts.
