Alabama School
Indignation Seen

TUSCALOOSA. Ala, Jan. 5
.Pi.-Buford Boone. publisher Of
the Tuscaloosa News. told
White Citizens Council meeting
last night that indignation in the
University of Alabama is in
evitabIe.
Mr.. Boone urged the West Ala
bama Citizens Council to uphold
law and order when the next
Negro seeks admittance to the
University. He said compromises
are going to have to be made
on both sides.
For whites, the contribution
must be in a willingness to give
up some of their traditions and
customs so as to share more
equally the blessings of eduea-
ton" he said.
For the Negro. the contribu-
ton must be acceptance of less
speed than could be demanded
legally in augmentation of
newly established rights. Mean
while. time and attention can
be directed by our Negro groups
and institutions toward a greater
understanding Of the responsible
tiles of first-class citizenship. For
there is much responsibility along
with privilege" he declared.
