when he told VI months ago
Of the dynamite in the Part
3 Of the Civil Rights Bill,
which the Senate kicked out.
Then our President told the
television world that he
would never use force on
the South" Yet all this did
come to pass. as foretold by
Americas foremost reporter.
David Lawrence. The Presi-
dents advisers have time
and again led him down the
garden path and left him to
struggle out the best way he
could. The Attorney General
certainly ill-advised him on
the Little Rock situation. The
President should have re-
membered that many heads
are better than one. Many
Republicans rode into office
on President Eisenhower's
popularity. Now that popu-
larity Is fast dwindling. due
to the advice given to the
President on various mat
tiers. When that popularity
has gone, so has the Re-,
publican Party.

No amount Of television-
explaining by the President
can change the fact that in
his high-handed action he
has gone too far with his
meddling in States affairs.
The actual trouble in Ar
kansas and elsewhere has

He harangues about dis
elimination. The only real
discrimination involved is
the discrimination against
the good. solid, real Ameri-
cans Of the South. they who
have always been staunch
ana sincerely patriotic ever
since the Revolution was won
in the South. They who
have always been the real
friends Of the Negro. The
discrimination is against the
thousands Of Americans, de-
scendants Of our Anglo-Sax-
on forefathers, in favor Of
nine Negro children.

Hines reportorial skill and
the sensltivity and vividness
Of his writing.
