Certainly my constituents would not want to jeopardize the possibility of obtaining some classroom with Federal help. just because Mr. POWELL insisted upon his amendment to declare against segregation. when we had been doing exactly that. With the continual tide of immigrants coming into California we are in dire need of classrooms. Governor Warren used to say each Monday that "I must have 91 more classrooms now to take care of the children who came into California with their parents last week and who intend to make California their permanent home." The Supreme Court did not ask for any haste to have its decree carried out. It indicated by waiting a year that time to make the change was necessary and perhaps desirable to bring the real results which the decision contemplated.
