It is the definite article "the," 81
with an archaic spelling.
In the early English alphabet

The Thai race is believed to
be one. of the Oldest of Asiatic
peoples. The word Thai means
free; and it now is correct toI
speak Of the people of ThailandI
as Thai. The Thai call their
country "Prades Thai" which
means "The Land of the Free
The "h" in Thai is silent. Pro-
nounce Thai: TIE. Thailand is:
TIE-l'nd.

Texas Rangers
Refuse to Aid
Negro Student

mob estimated at 300 unruly whites
paraded around the Texarkana junior college Monday morn
Ing and prevented Negro students from entering the school.
Threats of bodily harm were hurled at the students. a boy
and a Girl Of teenage. The girl registered at the college last
week, while the boy took an admittance test last week and
returned Monday to see II he had passed the test. The girl
was registered at the college on a court order.
While the unruly mob was threatening the Negroes, law
enforcement officers were standing by offering no assistance
to the Negroes whatever.
After the students were blocked from the entrance. they
summoned a cab and left the scene. only to return a little
later and asked a Texas Ranger, who was standing by, IL he
would escort them into school. This the Ranger refused TO
do. The officer told the girl who had made the request, that
he and three other Rangers were there to keep down VI
olence".
The mob began gathering at the college shortly after
$50 a. m. and 1t grew larger and larger. By the time school
was scheduled to open. the mob was well formed. Members
OF the mob carried signs aimed at creating hatred toward the
Negroes and declaring that no Negroes would attend school
al the college. The mob won for the time being. No Negro
students appeared at the college Tuesday.
A cross was burned last week as a warning to the Ne
groes of the mobs intention. The cross was burned In the
front OF a funeral home owned and operated by John Jay
Jones, one of the most substantial Negro citizens In the city.
Mr. Jones is a leader In the National Association for the
