Despite the pressure which sup
porters of Gov. Faubus attempted
to exert on the organization the
majority Of the Negro population
in Arkansas and some whites
belong to and support the NAACP.
Mr.. Branton said the Little Rock
school indignation dispute may be
settled before new series Of Fed
eral suits are heard on May 4.
A case challenging the states
school closing which Faubus
caused to be enacted by the state
legislature is now before the Ark
ansas Supreme Court and a de-
cision is expected on May 4, he
said.
II the court declares the school
closing law unconstitutional the
Governors proclamation which
closed the Little Rock schools will
be voided.
In describing the racial tension
which Faubus' actions and the
later intervention by troops has
caused Branton said people in the
city of Little Rock are afraid to at
tend an interracial meeting.
Not only is there considerable
pressure upon Negro residents
who openly side with the integra-
ton supporters but whites who
are in favor of obeying the su-
preme court are threatened" Mr..
Branton stated.
The Arkansan said there were
some bright spots in that in a
dozen school districts in the state
schools are being peacably in

groes attended state supported
colleges long before Faubus was
elected governor and that Negro
white relations in the state before
the governors Intervention were
the best to be found in the South.
Mr.. Branton told a press con-
ference Saturday that the Arkan-
sas business community was res
tive under the vast amount Of bad
publicity which the state received
during the Little Rock crisis,
which set the expanding economic
development program back years.
He also said the Little Rock
Chamber Of Commerce had voted
