When A Doctor Can't Take
His Own Presided Medicine /.

What would you think of doctor who would pre-
scribe certain medicine for to take and then cannot
take it himself? is doubtful that would be any
complimentary of the doctor than of the twenty
six or more who walked out on their invited
speaker last week here in Little Rock.
Last week when Denver, Colorado editor and pub
Usher who been invited be the principal speaker for
the Arkansas Press association at its mdwiner meeting
in the Marion hotel began telling the Arkansans about
their undemocratc actions, and their unAmercan prnci
pies which hamed America and threatened peaceful
world relationship the guilt of members of the as
ISOLATION proved that they could not face the truth and
and they went seeking place to hide twenty
six it is said walked the speaker in disgust.
The Denver speaker told the group that the world be-
eves American state used its powers to prevent
nine Negroes from getting education
The speaker also told them "That the rest OF the
world is not going to wait around for make up
minds where we indignation The people of the
the world making their minds right now wheh-
err to stand with against u.s..
The speaker told the APA group to bear in mind
what education means to the worlds backward millions
struggling identity the great majority of whom
are of the so-caed cooed The group also told
by the man, that the people could not talk and
write one way in the United States and act another.
He also told the APA that behavior which suggests
contempt for inransigent opposition to redstribu
ton of equal rights among persons of all coors hands
weapons of murderous potential to our enemies
The truth the group could not take White people OF
The south have been accustomed to having their way
regardless the consequences and have always found
solution for their dastardly acts
The speaker introduced by the governor, who sat
thru the meeting and later commented to the effect that
his presence kept the people from walking out
the speaker The governor quoted saying that ne con-
stered the speech by the Denver editorpubher as THE
Judgment of another sefstyed expert from afar about
situation with which he cannot be familiar"
1t is our opinion that the governor, if his intent is to
dispute what the speaker said not too familiar with his
own concocton he that set up the barriers to pre-
vent the Negroes from entering the school to get an edu
cation This fact that eliminates any thinking from
the people of the world The affect that this contempt OF
law has had on the thruout the world should
in no way require caovoyant to anaze The deed
has been done and now the Arkansans just can't take it.
