President Richard M. Nixon
told 1900 investment bank

paralleled prosperity; that
wage earners now have more
jobs at higher wages; that
there is top purchasing pow

strikes now than at any 9TH

An Intimate Message From
the South
BY BIcKNELL EUBANKS

the South
BY BICKNELL EUBANKS
Ii would be a mistake to
assume that the Old South
will accept indignation of the
races in public schools with
out putting up a fight. This
does not necessarily mean
that the region will resort to
about terroristic acts, al
though there have been sew
eral unfortunate incidents in
recent months which can be
traced to the aggravation of
racial tension following the
1854 decision by the SUI
preme Court of the United
States that segregation Of
white and Negro children is
unconstitutional in tax-sup-
ported public schools.
Two states which repre-
sent the really deep South,
Mississippi and South Caro-
lima, are taking legislative
action to make voluntary"
segregation more acceptable
TO Negro leaders.
In assaying the problems
raised by enforced integra-
ton, it is necessary to recog-
nize that some rather deep
roots are being served, and
the turning of old
thoughts, habits, traditions,
and customs, and accentua-
ton of long-fostered fears
are developing.
Indignation is taking place
in the South, mostly in the
upper tier of states. Only
in Texas, Oklahoma, and
Arkansas, among states fair
ly far below the Mason and
Dixon Line 10 Indignation
making any appreciable
progress.
In the South as a whole,
according to the Southern
Education Reporting Service,
which keeps tabs on integral
ton through its Southern
School News, attendance fig.
ures show that $4,000 Me-
gro children have enrolled in
mixed schools in eight for
mer segregation states with
the beginning of the new
scholastic year. But of these,
half, or some $1,000, were
in the District of Columbia.
And the remainder, by far
the largest number are in the
upper regions of the South
and in such border states as
Kentucky, Missouri, and
Tennessee.
In the far South, Texas
appears to be making the
most progress. Even in the
Lone Star State, where
southern tradition is highly
leavened by direct contact
with western customs, only
So of 1900 school districts
have been desegrated.
Meanwhile, official and
unofficial steps are being
taken to dissuade Negroes
from pushing Indignation
throughout the South. Un-
Official groups opposing de-
segregation are becoming in
creasingly active, such as
the Citizens Councils in Mis-
sissippi and Texas.
Also, official steps are be-
ing sought through legisla-
tive action in Mississippi and
South Carolina, such as the

six-point program which has
been worked out by the Mis-
sissippi Legal Educational
Advisory Committee, and
plans in the Palmetto State
to continue a multimillion-
dollar school improvement
program to equalize facilities
for white and Negro stu
dents.
These programs are being
pushed as a last resort to
avoid the proposed step of
abolishing public schools and
putting them under private
control.
Mississippi has gone fur
Their than any other south
ern state toward putting pub
lie education in the hands of
private groups. The state APP
proved such a step last year
by voting a constitutional
amendment giving the legis-
lature power to take such
action If il was considered
necessary. The Magnolia
States Legal Educational
Advisory Committee, set up
by the 1854 Legislature to
develop bypasses to the SUI
preme Court action, pro-
poses:
/. Methods of discourage
ing litigation stirred up by
lawyers and the screening"
of out-of-state attorneys be-
fore they can practice in
state courts. This is aimed
especially at the legal staff
of the National Association
for the Advancement of Col
ored People.
2. To repeal the compul-
sorry school-attendance law,
which has never been wide
ly enforced.
3. To set stiff penalties
for abusive and obscene
telephone calls and tighten
up the statute on criminal
libel.
4. To abolish common-law
marriages by statute. The
committee doesn't explain
where this proposal enters
into the Indignation debate.
S. To set up a permanent
state Authority for Main
tenance Of Racial Segrega-
ton" to replace the advis-
DRY committee and to con-
tinue the fight for segrega-
ton.
6. Enactment of a statute
which would set up penalties
against persons interfering
with the rights of an indi-
vidual under state law when
done under cover of United
States or federal law"
As in Mississippi, so in
South Carolina and most 9TH
err southern states, schools
are running normally and
generally segregated.
But one big question looms:
What will be the status when
schools open next year? In
some southern states, bien-
NAL budgets provide no
school funds beyond this
year, and special legislative
sessions would have to be
called to take extraordinary
action. Some governors have
let it be known that they
planned it that way" to
keep a rein on any local
moves toward Indignation
that might tend to crack an
otherwise solid front in OPP
position to desegregation.
