Reception
HOnOrS
Republicans
BY ISABELLE SHELTON

RepuDllcanS mere 70 attend
their national committee meet
ing today and tomorrow re-
Taxed last evening at a recep-
ton given by the National
Federation of Republican
Women in honor of G. o. p.
Chairman Meade Alcorn and
Senate and House G. o. P.
Campaign Chairmen. Senator
Andrew Schoppel and Repre-
sentative Richard Simpson.
The three men stood with
their wives and Mrs. Peter
Gibson. National Federation
President, in the receiving line.
The party was. at the house of
Mrs. william c. Burdick, pro-
gram chairman Of the fedora
ton.
New Chairman
Chief point Of interest to
the 200 or so guests was the
identity Of the new chair
man of the G. o. P. Finance
Committee, replacing Clifford
Folger of Washington, new
United States Ambassador to
Belgium; and the new party
secretary. replacing Mrs. Wes-
ley M. Dixon of Illinois, who
resigned.
The identity of the new
finance chairman was Of parti-
cular interest, because party
leaders have been attributing
the admitted fallins-off Of
contributions to the g. o. p.
to the fact that the finance
activities has been tagging for
the past few months. A widely
circulated report at the party
was that the post would 60 to
Charles S. Thomas, Secretary
Of the Navy until his recent
resignation.
Post Due for Woman
Mr.. Alcorn said the new
party secretary definitely
would be a woman-although
no party regulation governs
this-probably from the Mid
west.
L. Richard Guylay, publicity
director of the Republican Ma
tional Committee for the past
few years. who resigned early
this year but has continued
in q consultative" capacity,
said at the party that he is
about to 60 to New Jersey to
manage the gubernatorial
campaign Of Malcolm Forbes.
COP. candidate against the
encumbent. Governor Robert
Meyner.
Republicans attach unusual
significance to the New Jersey
race. according to other Re-
publicans present yesterday, be-
cause the so-called "Finletter
group" is supporting Mr..
Meyner with the hope a victory
will build him up as q likely

ATLANTA, Ga.-Ralph McGill
speaking before an Emory Uni
versity lecture forum said the
people of the South "have been
sold a phony bill Of goods" by
those who say integration would
mean amalgamation of the
races"
The editor labeled such beliefs
as IAN insult to both races to
believe that the only law is keep
ing them from running to the
marriage courts.
He said real tragedy in the
Deep South is that local school
boards have not been able to do
what they might want. He said
he feels that there would. be
little trouble over deSegregation
in such urban centerS as Atlanta
and Savannah because relative
few students would be involved
in miXedN classes.
The editor said he would rath-
er see Georgia close it's school
than to go through a period OF
violence and mob action. He
added he was confident schools
would be closed ''if it comes to
that"
The editor expressed hope for
a delay of integration suits in
the South for two or three years.
He said meantime progress on
the problem might be made else
where in the South.
Mr.. McGil declared that a per-
son would be a fool to demand
intgeration but "he would be a
greater fool not to commit him
self to stand for the law"
The editor noted that despite
the tremendous GU tb urstS
against the 14th Amendment by
southern politicians its stlll
there and it's valid"

tor insisted that 1--WE should

At this point. the San Fran

men, called public attention to
the matter in a by-lined report
covering several columns. Next,
radio and TV commentators
moved in to interview the Say
Hey" Kid.
While news reports were still
being phoned in to city desks,
Mayor George Christopher, fresh
from a vacation to his native
Greece, sent a personal note to
Willie Mays and family inviting
them to be his house guest u-

ALABAMA NEGROES TO OPPOSE
TUSKEGEE BILL

In a recent meeting of the
voter registration leaders of
Alabama the group went on
record opposing a constitutional
amendment recently enacted by
the State Legislature which
would pave the way for the
abolition of Macon County (TuS-
kegee) where the international
famEuS TuSkegee Institute is
located. If ratified by the elect
ors of the State Macon County
would be divided between the
adjoining counties. The purpose
of this amendment is to prevent
mass voting of Negroes in the
concentrated area, like in Macon
County whose population is a
ratio Of 81.
The Alabama State >Coordinat-
ing Association went on record
opposing the amendment and to
work diligently to get a large
turn out on December 18th to
oppose
