The white people Of the
South. who pay most Of the
taxes that so to support both
white and Negro schools. are
now reduced to less than Sec
ond-class citizens. They no
longer have any rights except
at the sufferance Of the Fed

NAACP. This Is q throw-back
to the "divine right" theory
that prevailed prior to Magma
