VIEWS ON:
To the Editor Of The stor:

10 the Editor OF lhe StoT:
DIR. John Perry, writing in
this column, referred to the
Supreme Court as a body Of
the worlds nine best judges.
l cannot restrain myself
from directing TO DR.. Perry
one big snort of derision.
Obviously, DR.. Perry is
making the same kind of
mistake with regard to the
Supreme Court that, for ex-
ample, so many foreigners
make about this country:
that is. America is a wealthy
Nation, 50 all Americans
must be wealthy.
The Supreme Court may
well be the most august jul
diciai institution in the world
Tor at least used to be-. But
that probability should not
be confused with the nine
individuals currently using
that institution to further
their own and their friends
personal psychological and
sociological PHILOSOPHERS.
Even If these nine were
paying any attention to the
United States Constitution.
and to the correct respons-
Utilities and limitations Of
their station, they would
hardly qualify for the COM
mendaticn Of '.the worlds
best judges" II DR.. Perry
would look up their records.
he would see that collectively
they have not brought to the
high bench the proper judi
cial background for even one
average supreme Court JUS
tice.
So again.. let US not con-
fuse the Supreme Court with
the Warren Court. The SUI
preme Court has been vacant
since Earl Warren moved in.

A race OF people was i'm
ported into the Western
Hemisphere to improve the
lot Of the nohler class. This
imported race Of people was
bought and sold much the
same as chattel is bought
and sold today. Notwith-
standing, this imported race
was created citizens by the
Emancipation Proclamation
Of 1852. For almost q cen
tury these citizens remained
second-class citizens, because
they had only paper" rights
The rights were guaranteed
by the Constitution in theory
only. In practice these rights
must be jealousy guarded
and denied in order to main
tain unchanged the suprem-
acy Of the aristocracy.
With the passage of time
these second-class citizens
were allowed to shed their
blood for their country.
Where applicable these sec
ond-class citizens pay the
State withholding taxes. OF
course, there are accidental
cases where they earned
enough to pay Federal with
holding taxes, but they must
still be denied the rights of
first-class citizenship. The
choice citizenship must re-
main with the noble class
and these do not want their
inherent privileges to disap-
pear. AS for the shedding
of blood and taxes, the First
Families Of Virginia have
been doing all that long be-
fore there were seeond-class
citizens.
In 1854 the opportunity of
first class citizenship was
made obligatory for all by
the Supreme Court. Since
the opportunity of equal
education for all would re-
move the last vestige Of in
herited rights for the favored
class, this challenge must be
met with massive resist
ance." After all, positions in
government, in industry, in
the arts, in the sciences, in
leadership at any level can
conceivably be offered on the
basis Of ability. When such
q catastrophe occurs. the
privileged class would no
longer have exclusive rights
by inheritance to their posi-
tions Of caste.
In order to preserve the
traditional way Of life. then,
equal educational opportuni-
ties must be kept from these
upstart citizens at all costs.
If the Federal Government
insists upon indignation indi-
Gated by the Supreme Court,
public schools must be closed.
