Commonwealth. There will be no integra tion at any place in Virginia, or there will be racial integration in- all parts of Virgin ia. So, those who would accept, maybe, a little racial integration in some of the coun ties with only 25 or 30 Negroes, like Carroll county, must realize that the schools in other parts of the state may find much large percentages. Further, with the in tegration of public schools integration of faculties will follow naturally. The pro , blem becomes more and more complex. But this is but a part of the question. The overshadowing phase is the usurpation of the powers and sovereignty of the states under the U. S. Constitution. We have seen no recognized legal authority which has stated unequivocally that the school de cision of the Supreme Court on May 17, 1954 is according to law and precedent. The present trend toward government by judi cial fiat, executive orders, and bureaucratic interpretations transcends the question of racial integration of schools as imminently important as that is. Our entire system of government is at stake. Will the constitu tional republic stand or fall? Will there be sovereignty of the states or will we submit to the political whims of an all powerful juduciary or executive oligarchy? Will Congress be stripped of its powers, or through inertia retreat from its duties? These are questions which can not be an swered simply by using the school and raci al issues for political advantages. There is no way under the sun that the school and racial issues can be eliminated from the forthcoming gubernatorial elections, but for goodness sake do not overlook the im portant principles of government which are directly connected with those questions. We hope Mr. Dalton’s trial balloon ex plodes, and quickly.
