party on the side of the South.
The forecast of this came during
the past presidential campaign
when for the first time since the
days of Franklin Delano Roosevelt
the Democratic candidate for pres
ident was received with open arms
by the South and there was no
Dixiecrat revolt such as took place
against Harry Truman and against
Mr.. Stevenson the first time he
ran.
While this report will undoubt-
edly be denied by those in power,
yet nevertheless, every fact these
days indicates that such a policy
is the growing philosophy of a
new reactionary Democratic party.
"The Democratic party needs to
follow the leadership of the Re-
publican party in building a new
party in the South because there
is a large group of white and Ne
gro Democrats in the South who
do not subscribe to the Eastland
philosophy.
Lastly, Richard Nixon will be
the next president of the United
States unless we start building now
Governor Williams of Michigan for
President and bring back Senator
Kennedy into the fold from which
he strayed for Vice President"

the fact that he felt that the Con-
ference was a success and that it
was certainly worth while. He also
said that he was amazed at the
sincere interest, knowledge, con-
duct, and concern exhibited by the
youth. His evaluation brought out
the following areas of further con-
Germ: ~ There is need to carry
the safety program to the ele-
mentary school and even to the
pre- elementary school. (2) There is
need on the part of principals and
community leaders to provide in
struction in the meaning of Mis-
sissippi laws. 60 There is need
for increased emphasis and an ex-
pansion of driver training pro-
grams in the high schools. (4) Some
person should be designated in
each school as the person respon-
sible for the instruction of pupils
in the area of safety. 81 There is
need for better leadership exhibited
at the local level in safety educa-
ton. The groups listed numerous
suggestions for safety in the four
areas mentioned This list is too
long to include here, but school
principals, youth workers and
other interested persons may Sc

No Alibis Accented

Ever since Adam, the favorite indoor sport of man
has been laying the blame for whatever has gone wrong
the shoulders of some else "The woman tempted
me- and did eat
1t doesn't make any difference what the mess is
whether it be window broken by stray ball, or an
overuse of power by individual group nation
those who went along when the going good are
the first to decry the blame and condemn else
In the of children, they call the blame-shifter
poor sport" What shall cal the adult who does
precisely the same thing?
1t seems to that the alibi-er is really making
confession of nferiorty and is saying in many words
that he be led around by the nose that he doesn't
think for himself that he is ignorant Indifferent to
what is going about him. Or that if he did see what
was happening that he either didn't hadn't the
essential courage to at least protest.
You will find these aibi-ers quick to condemn and
to act in righteous indignation there is public
scandal q would like to know what they were doing be-
fore it became pubic)
You will find these alibers among those who con-
tnuay find fault with anything their elected represen-
taves do. How many of them did trouble to vote
in the elections-loca as we'll as NATIONAL?
If you look around you, you will find these albi-
ers in any group to which you belong-church, club,
lodge union. They complain and criticze-but what
did they do to help make things right? Were they
hand when the rules drawn? Did they keep watch
on those they put in power?
If you look back through the pages of history YOU
will find these aibiers According to the historians
power goes by default. A tyrant It rise by him
self The reinS of government cannot seized from
strong, webacked representative executive 1t is when
the rens are dropped that despot step into power
1t is childish to blame leader leader is the rep
power to act If he goes in the wrong direction it is
up to those whom he represents to be alert and ready
to act
Sheep may follow their leader blindIv-but no aibis
can be accepted from the free woman Theirs
is the responsibility of choice, and them will rest
the final blame.

Mothers ari fathers you got to be
To be able to answer to Gods call.

Are you willing to come back to

And be ready for Starry Crown.

You have got to be born of the

And less about the spirit of Christ
Brains are filling up most of the

tive lamps, gaily framed pic
lures or fresh flowers in unusual
planters can pick up a room and
give it new life.
Windows offer a rich oppor-
tunity for change. The, style of
the window treatment4the con-
ception, cut, color combination
and trimming-has more infiu-
ence on the character and beauty
of a room than any other fea-
ture in it. Designed to let in
light and air, windows should
be treated as such and not yelled
by heavy easements and elabo-
rate hardware. Sheer Fiberglas
curtains are one way to enhance
YOUR windows; they let in plenty
of natural daylight, yet elimi-
nate harsh glare. Especially for
those of you who like an air of
delicacy along with practical
handwash, no-iron features,
these curtains will save you
hours of time and temper in
keeping windows glamorous and
fresh looking.

In South Reported

DR.. Long, sociologist at Fisk

grams for implementing interrac-
ial improvements, said this coun-
try had reached ats real turning
point in race relations
Now, for the first time, the
American public generally recog-
nizes at the deeper level that the
old pattern of racial etiquette and
the instruments for maintaining
the Negro in second-class citizen
ship are finished" he declared.

Even with a small budget, you
can change the character of your
home and add new comfort and
beauty to rooms that have de-

You can turn a wide, little

around the entire area. Windows
from the living room can be cut
