To do otherwise was to make it almost certain that one would be labeled antiliberal. or worse. This was too great a risk. I offer as an example the charge that our schoolsafter the better part of two centuries educating the children of immigrant poorwere somehow depicted as segregated enclaves of the rioh. A splendid editorial in the Washington Star. appearing just before the debate. stated: "Of all the attacks on the tuition tax credit proposal. the shabbiest is the insinuation that they are a sugarcoated scheme for promoting racial segregation in the schools." In the course of the debate. this charge became explicit. But not a single Democratic Senator. other than the sponsors. whose duty it was. rose to dispute the charge.
