the press, and the silence main
tanned by other equally we'll known
and prominent Negro leaders is
seen in Informed circles and indi-
eating total and complete agree
nient on the part of the more in
telligent and honest Negro leaders
of the state with the views ex-
pressed by the NAACP Regional
Director.
In an unsolicited telephone con-
versation with the Jackson Advo-
cate, widely known and promi-
nent Negro leader, who is regard
ed as extremely conservative, and
whose name has appeared on a
number of recent statements in the
press IN regard to matters of Race
Relations, in upholding the view
expressed by the NAACP Re-
glonal Director, pointed out that
despite the official statements of
| plans and purposes nothing had
/ been done towards the real equal
lzation of education in the state.
The Mississippi Negro, he point
ed out cannot help OF resist being
affected by the examples made by
Negroes in other Southern States
and according to these examples,
and in the light of many untitled
promises he said that it appeared
now that the only hope of Negroes
in Mississippi of getting equal ed
ucational opportunity for their
children was by filing suits and
putting the matter up to the
courts.
Since the statement of the
NAACP Regional Director dealt
primarily with graduate and pro-
ressional educational opportunity
for Negroes, intelligent citizens of
the state know that not even a
beginning has been made toward
providing graduate and profes-
slonal education for the MissiS-
sippi Negro to say nothing Of
equalizing such opportunity with
those provided for white students.
Today there are only three Ne.
gro institutions in the state pur-
rCrting to provide higher educa-
tional opportunity for Negroes.
These are Alcorn College, Jack
son College, and the new Delta
State College at Itta Bena. whose
first term opening this year was
delayed because the grounds were
covered with flood waters.
Alcorn College is a land grant
college set up as an agricultural
and mechanical scnooi; Jackson
College exists primarily tor the
training of teachers. The new col
lege 'at 1tta Bena, has been, estab-
/ lished, SO it is said, to fit Negroes
Tor the Delta Way of Life.
The recent awarding of A rat
ing to Alcorn and Jackson College
by the Southern Association of Col
leges. and Secondary Schools is
looked upon everywhere as moth
ing more than an attempt to sill
ence the ever mounting attack
upon the glowing inequalities Of
Negro and white education in the
state.
Any attempt to compare Ne
gro institution in the state to the
University Of Mississippi at Ok
ford can only be regarded as fool
hardy.
The young Negro in Mississippi
who wishes to become a lawyer,
doctor, dentist, engineer, scientist,
or advanced scholar, must .subdue
his ambition, or accept the mere
pittance offered by the state for
out-of-state training, because nc
such educational opportunity is
provided in the Negro institution.
In spite of the statement OF
Governor Wright it is well known
that the least able of the Southern
states to provide a separate but
equal" school system for it's Negro
and white students is the state

the Middle East. His "defec-
ton" earned him the hostility
of the Arab nationalists.
Last year, when the British
began to smell trouble in Iran,
but still did not believe it would
become as dangerous as it de-
veloped later, they conceived
the idea of an Arab tristate
federation with the faithful
Abdullah at the head. Trouble
broke out Immediately. both in
Syria and Iraq. but 1t was not
on a sufficient scale to indicate
any major upheaval.
Abdullah's political sympa-
thizerS in Syria were OCCASION
ally murdered. Plots aiming at
coups d'etat were discovered and
sometimes suppressed. Special
lists in Middle Eastern affairs
were worried, but the general
public received no indication
that something really serious
might eventually develop.
The British lost face in Iran.
The ability of the Iranian gov
eminent to confiScate British
property-in the past consid-
cred inviolable-spurred other
Mohammedan countries to try
to rid themselves of British tute-
lage. The movement in Iran has
had a strong effect. particularly
in Egypt. where the movement
to expel British troops from the
Suez Canal and take over the
administration of the Sudan is
gaining momentum.
These conditions, while Brit
ain can no longer retaliate and
make show of force. have add
ed to the anti-British atmos-
phere IN other Middle Eastern
countries.
Abdunah. deeply indebted to

The assassination of King Alb
dullah of Hashemite Jordan
climaxes growing anti-British
sentiment in the Middle East
and may foreshadow other vio-
lent outbreaks in that area.
Abdullah has been planning
for the last year to create new
state, comprising Jordan. Syria
and Iraq with himself as king
of the new federation. This
move was regarded by nation
alists, particularly in Syria, as
an attempt by the British to
control through a "puppet" a
large portion of the Middle East
extending from Israel to the
Iranian and Turkish borders.
The suspicion of the Arab
nationalists that Abdullah would
be a tool of Downing Street was
based on two facts:
Cd The Jordan king was
first placed in power by the
British after World War I. He
was the son of the Sheriff of
Mecca, Hussein, who had COOP
Grated strongly with the famous
Lawrence of Arabia" in World
War ! and in the Arab revolt
against the Turkish empire. At
the end of World War l the
British rewarded Hussein by
placing his eldest son, Feisal,
on the throne of the newly
created kingdom of Iraq while
the younger son, Abdullah. was
proclaimed Emir of Transjor-
dan, as it was then called. Both
states were British mandates at
first.
CD When after World War II
the new State of Israel was cre-
ated, Abdullah was the first to
"break the unity" of the Arabs
who opposed Israel. He did
this, the Arab nationalists say,
only after the British we're per-
Suaded to recognize the new
Jewish republic.
Because of the support he
received from London. Jor-
dams army, organized by British
officers, was among the best in
