NEW YORK - Charges that a

are made by Russell w. Gibbons,
publisher of the Orchard Park

fourth estate today who finds
this to be the case?" he asked.
Propaganda disguised as news
is now generally accepted as
having replaced news itself in
the domestic political front, he
charged. The pressure of po-
wer politics has long been felt on
the opinion of editors and writ
ers who would follow a true in
dependent policy"
Gibbons added, ''Two final

AS is often the case during
periods of great tensions the
public is inclined to overlook
central figures, individuals whose
forceful personalities have much
to do with the resolution of
those tensions.
During the Arkansas school
crisis recently, one such figure
was generally overlooked. l re-
fer to Bollweevil J. Whitetrash,
the man who first stood in front
of Little Rock High Schools
front doors, facing the onslaughts
of nine little Negro boys and
girls with cool Southern courage.
Whitetrash, with the modesty
characteristic of brave men
everywhere, protested that he
couldn't have saved the school
alone, that without the help of
those who rallied around him.
the cause would have been lost.
But those who know him best
know it was his indomitable
spirit which carried the day.
1T WAS WHITETRAsH, they
pointed out proudly who kicked
the little girl when, with devilish
cunning, she sought to s sidle
through the door while her CO.
horts were creating a diversion
airy skirmish midway up the
school steps.
Whitetrash, as you might ex-
pect, said it wasn't anything that
any Southern Gentleman would
mt do. He added:
81 amt never been in no
school and by grabs I wasn't
gonna let her get in neither. I"
HE WENT ON, detracting from
his own role in order to laud
the heroics of others who took
part in the dangerous foray
against the nine children.
"You should have seen Mizzus
Beauregard Whuffo stand up to
EN-" he said proudly. Mrs
Whuffo is just a youngin, her
self, only about % or 20 years
old. She was a-standin' there a.

As Others See Us
The Hero OF Little Rock

like any pure white flower of
Southern Womanhood would
have done"
Southern gallantry, as you
might have noticed in the news
pictures, permeated the entire
affair. Gentlemen whose great
grandfathers followed Lee and
Jackson stood there undaunted
by the fearsome enemy, nine
Negro youngsters, and shoulder
to-shoulder, fought to preserve
the Dignity of the South with
two-by-fours, stolen pistols and
butcher knives.
INDEED the modest White
trash was telling the truth when
he said the victory was team
affair, for Individual acts of
courage were reported from
every sector.
When the advancing enemy
first entered the block in which
the school was located it was
young Jefferson Davis Slobb III
who sounded the warning, and
at extreme risk to own person
flung rock at the nearest Ne
gro child.
He couldn't stop them alone,
however, and it remained for
the women's volunteer corps,
composed of Southern Bellies led
by Mrs. Whuffo, to show the adj
vance with ladylike taunts, jeers
and streams OF saliva.
BUT IF BOLLWEEVIL J.
Whitetrash hadn't stood there
like a stone wall, their bravery
would have been of little avail.
He was the final breastwork,
and they could not pass!
Some day Little Rocks NUM-
cipal park will be graced with
a statue of Bollweevil, his cham
bray shirt and SLOUGH hat pre-
served in hardy granite, his
stubbled chin thrust forever out
ward, his great red Southern
hands clasped to signify the
