WASHINGTON —UP— President
Eisenhower said Wednesday that
there eventually may have to be a
meeting with Red China at the
foreign ministers’ level.
The United States and Red China
will open a conference of ambas-
sadors at Geneva Monday.
Mr. Elsenhower told his news
conference that the United States,
at the talks opening Monday, will
be primarily concerned with ar-
rangements to free Americans held
by Red China.
Cause of Tension
The President said one of the
biggest causes of tension between
the two nations is the illegal de-
tention of Americans by Red
China.

impractical to provide two high

not know.
This was taken to mean that a
higher meeting might Involve oth-
ers besides this country and Com-
munist China.
Mr. Eisenhower, In response to
another question, said he never had
discussed the idea of having two
Chinas in the world if that would
make for peace.
Meanwhile, this government pre-
pared demands that Red China
prove its peaceful intentions by
agreeing to a cease-fire in the For-
mosa Straits and freeing 51 Amer-
icans held in Chinese jails.
These two demands topped a
list of American proposals for
easing Far East tensions to be
presented at next week's Ameri-

Geneva.

prospective enrollment figures for

Six in 16th grade;
Five in 11th grade, and
Eight in 12th grade. making
a total of 25 prospective Negro
students for BHS classes.
On the basis of these figures,
local school officials said it is
highly impractical to provide two
high school programs on a non-
segregated basis.
The action of the local school
board conforms with decisions of
the Supreme Court of the United
States. On May 17. 1854, the
court decreed that segregation of
races in public schools of the U.
S. is unconstitutional. On May
31 of this year, the court reaf-
firmed this decision and ordered
Southern states to end segregation
in schools "as rapidly aa possible .
on a local basis."
The unanimous action of the
Supreme Court left it up to local
Federal courts whether individual
schools boards are carrying out
integration in good faith. Chief
Justice Earl Warren said public
school authorities must bear the
primary responsibility for ending
segregation.

issued by the local school board,
