Writ BLOCKING
BoycoftLiffed
In Tuskegee

TUsKEoEE, Ala. June 81
R.--An Alabama Judge today
knocked down a temporary
restraining order prohibiting
Negro leaders from using any
form Of threat. coercion or in
timidation 10 support a boycott
OF white merchants In Tuskegee,
Observing that Americans
have a right 10 trade with
whom they choose. Circuit
Judge VIII o. Walton dissolved
the injunction which had been
in effect for eight months.
The State judges ruling came
after a request by Attorney
General John Patterson. Demo-
cratic nominee for governor,
that the temporary order be
made permanent.
Directed at Unit
The injunction, issued August
is, was directed at a Negro or
ganization. the Tuskegee Civic
Association. The court order
prohibited its members and fol-
lowers from using threats,
coercion or intimidation TO pre-
vent other Negroes from trad
ing with white merchants.
1t also directed the civic as
ISOLATION TO refrain from TAX
ing any part in directing or
financing the boycott.
Judge Walton ruled that Mr..
Patterson had failed TO prove
the group as an organization
had taken any action to pro-
mote the trade boycott or had
used any force to support it.
Mr.. Patterson could not be
reached for comment.
Judge Walton wrote:
Thus far in this land, every
person has a right to trade with
whomever he pleases, and.
therefore, the right to not trade
with any particular person or
business"
Alabama has an anti-boycott
law against any two or more

neys doubted that they would

postponement.
Two key Arlington officials
expressed doubt that the ruling
would have much affect on the
crisis facing their county next
fall.
Chairman Ralph Raul Of the
County Board said he would
have to read the decision before
discussing 1t in detail but added
that he failed to see how 1t
would affect the basic problem
In Arlington. He said:
II feel that Gov. Almond
has the responsibility and will
have to find a means Of keep
ing public schools open in the
face of present court orders
relating to Arlington.
Confidence In Police
Il don't anticipate any vi
olence in Arlington AS far
as outside agitators are con-
cerned, I am confident that
our police department will be
entirely able to cope with that
situation without any help
from either the State or Fed
eral governments"
Chairman James @. Stock
ard of the school board SAID
he felt the Little Rock case
would have very little, IL any
impact on the Arlington stu
alton"
He said a different Judge is
involved, a different court jur-
isdiction and different public
official. He added that he would
be terribly surprised" If
Arlington ever came to the
point where it would have the
same circumstances which led

cation that the Federal court
may have become wiser from
this experience" .-fs
In q statement issued in
Washington, Senator Thurmond
also said:
II could never agree that the
Federal court has jurisdiction
over questions concerning edu-
cation, since authority in the
field of education was specifi-
cally reserved to the states in
the Tenth Amendment to the
Constitution.
For this reason. I feel that
any decision rendered by the
Federal court in the Little Rock
case is an absolute nullity.
Judge Lemley. by his recent
decision authorizing suspension
Of the indignation plan at Little
Rock. has at least indicated
that q judicious approach and
q consideration Of the evidence
was made"
Sparkman Approves
Senator Sparkman. Democrat
OF Alabama, said he believed
Judge Lemley acted wisely and
correctly"
THE experience at that
school shows clearly the futility
and danger Of the Federal
Government trying to legislate
peoples habits and customs a.
the State and local levels. ="
Senator Sparkman said in a
statement.
In Louisiana, where racially
separate schools are under
court attack, Senator w. NJ
Rainach said the decision
means the South can escape
future Little ROCKS.
He added:
II think it is a very wise
decision. Indignation just won't
work where Negroes make up
a substantial percentage Of the
total population.
THE flight of white residents
from cities of the North to the
suburbs in the face of growing
Negro populations is evidence
Of this fact"

that any Federal court order

Judge Lemley plunged into
the hobby Of archaeology long
ago with the meticulous fervor
that marks his court cases. He
is believed to be the only Fed

seriously quoted in archaeology
ical books and journals.
Hunted Indian Relics
The judge, his wife and two
sons used to be active in dig
ging for Indian relics and bur-
ials. Judge Lemley's recent ILL.,
ness has ended his widespread
searches all over Arkansas. His
two sons, who attended West
Point, have etched careers in
the service.
Professional archaeologists
are grateful to Judge Lemley
for a major accomplishment.
The Judge established an i'm

He is a man of culture with
a practical background. He took
a pre-medical course, worked
on a railroad. taught school,
farmed and has been a banker,
The late President Franklin
ID. Roosevelt appointed Judge
Lemley as a rowing United
States district Judge in Arkan-

an unspectacular way, he has
earned a reputation as a metz

Government by the consent
Of the governed is a basic foun-
dation of our republican form
of government. A pure demo-
cracy would be numerically as
well as geographically imprac-
tical. The forerunner Of our
constitution presented the sour
ce of governmental power in
this phrase, THAT to, secure
these rights, governments are
instituted among men," Rights
and liberties are natural phe-
nomena of the citizens of any
nation. Our government was
established through mutual un-
,derstanding and cooperation,
to make safe these rights and
liberties. Amendments to the
national Constitution or a state
constitution are merely legal
methods of safeguarding or pro-
tecting the citizens rights and
liberties.
Democratic government is an
instrument Of the people, it diff
fers from other types of govern
ment which subordinate hu-
mans to political authority. No
form Of government is free from
imperfectiionS, but our form
holds the citizens life and well
fare as the yardstick Of laws
and policies. Processes Of
change continually alter gov
ernmental function. These pro-
cesseS closely follow the pat
terms Of the lives Of the citizens
of that nation. AS the country
undergoes social, economic, and
cultural changes, SO the
government must be altered or
modified.
The idea of change impartS
sense of upheaval, conditions Of
status quo might be removed,
and the old guard might lose
their powerful position. Change
is resisted on all sides by
thoughtless individuals who re-
fuse to take the time to study
the persons or problems in
volved.
Progressive steps in the lad
der toward better government
have been taken in spite of
seemingly overwhelming odds.
The colonial revolution against
British rule is a prime example
of minority group achieve
ment. Winning women's suf-
frage and other almost impos-
sible minority group accomp-
lishments are now highlights of
every history book
Negro citizens represent the
largest racial minority group in
the United States. They hold
by virtue of their population
concentration in metropolitan
centers unique political poten-
tial. Educational levels, social
levels, and financial levels may
be heightened but if citizenship
levels are not included, equal
ity will remain remote. We have
not fully realized the value of
the ballot. The greatest hope
for swift and tangible civil
rights improvements are hid
den in the ballot box of every
city and state in the Union.
The fault lies within the citi-
zen who expresses his political
inactivity with this familiar
sentence, "Why bother about
voting, what can one vote do?"
Another fault lies within the
