Chalk Backs
Fare Subsidy
For Students
Opposes Limiting
It to $550, 900

BY JAMES G. DEANE

o. Roy Chalk today strongly
advocated that Congress grant
the school fare subsidy sought
by his transit Arm.
The President Of D. c. Tran.
sit. Inc. opposed limiting the
subsidy. which as. proposed
would cost the city $3.50. 900

school children's half-price
tickets.

Mr.. Chalk formally repeated
q warning made yesterday that
a 25-cent fare will be sought

subsidy, wanted to bridge the
gap between present 10 cent

Limit TO Subsidy
Commissioner Robert e. Nc
Laughlin yesterday proposed
limiting the subsidy to the
company's extra cost over that
covered by the present 10 cent
tickets.
Mr.. Chalk, however, said an
attempt to figure costs would
result In endless annual hear
ings. A Public Utilities Com
mission staff member later
agreed with this prediction.
The transit president said
the company's per-passenger
cost, for both children and
adults. now averages 1873 cents.
The pupil-carrying loss Is
one Of the chief reasons the
company isn't making the 6.5
per cent return set by its fran
chise as reasonable. Mr.. Chalk
said. He said the company's
present return Is probably less
than 2 per cent. as he figures
1t.

specifically to the present school
fares.
That's incorrect. / say the

he declared.
Representative Foley. Demo-

whether the company was not

else was provided for in the

member of the Board of Diree-
tors of The Southern Regional
Council, a heavily financed Or

made more progress toward the
indignation of the South, than
has the NAACP itself. The other
was Justice Felix Frankfurter,
who served as a member of the
Legal Advisory Committee of the
NAACP before taking his seat on
the Supreme Court.
In our next, and final install
ment, we shall give concrete evil
dence of the fruits of the wrong
ful indoctrination practiced over
che past several years upon the
students of the University.
Holmes County herald., 1959-08-06

The improper indoctrinations,
influences and teachings at the
University as shown in install
ments previously released, have
left their mark upon the hearts
and minds of hundreds of Missis-
sippi boys and girls. It is prob
ably in the field of integration-
ist activity that this damage has
been most accurately measured.
In the Sunday, February s,
1855, edition Of the Clarion Led
ger on page 8 Of Section !, there
appears over the entire page, a
reprint of an article which ap-
peared in the Mississippian, Cam
pus Newspaper at the University,
analyzing the results of a campus
poll taken there on segregation
on the preceding Monday and
Tuesday. The following are peril
nent paragraphs taken from that
article:
"Of the 1870 Mississippi stu
dents polled, 1870 percent or 1855
students were in favor of segre-
cation and 1871 percent or 238
students were in favor of integra-
ton. 81 percent or 70 students
were undecided and Z percent or
II students did not answer the
question"
The following paragraph from
the above news article shows the
shocking extent to which the
Mississippi boys and girls at the
University, had been softened-up
on the proposition that integra-
ton will eventually come to Ole
Miss:
in regard to the question DO
you think Indignation will event
ually come to Ole Miss?' 600 stu
dents answered yes, SOS students
voted no, $50 students were un-
decided, and IS students did not
answer"
The Matters which we have
mentioned in this series of install
ments Excepting the reading list
for American History that ap-
peared posted in the library on
July 81, 1850 were fully pre-
sented on September Is, 1858, to
the Board of Trustees of Institu-
tons of Higher Learning in Jack

University. He directed a pro-
gram which included Religious
Emphasis Week, panel forums,
classroom lectures and addresses
to faculty groups and student
groups.
Mr.. Campbell not only actively
promoted the cause of integra-
ton during his four years at the
University, but, OF one outstand-
ing occasion at the Y.M.C.A. he
practiced it in the presence of a
group of students.
Dean Luther A. Weigle, of the
Yale University Divinity School,
was the principal speaker during
Religious Emphasis Week in 1854.
At that time, Dean Weigle had
belonged to six Communist-front
or Socialist organizations. He was
also a signer of the world To-
morrow Poll, in which he voted
in favor of Socialism, a drastic
increase in inheritance and in
come taxes, and a cooperative
commonwealth" instead of cap
italism. Moreover, on Page 54 of
the book "Collectivism in the
Churches, it is stated that Dr..
Weigle collaborated with Profes-
sor Starbuck in preparing a series
of textbooks for Unitarian Sun
day Schools, and that the Unitar-
ian Faith rejects altogether the
deity of Jesus Christ. In one of
his talks to the student body,
Dean Weigle told them that in
tegration was working most sat
isfactorily in the East.
For Religious Emphasis Week
at the University in 1856, Rev.
Alvin KershaW of Ohio, was in
vited to be the main speaker. He
is a champion of Jazz music in the
Churches, a member Of the
NAACP, and strongly in favor of
indignation of the races. The in
vitation to Rev. Kershaw was
withdrawn only after he appear
ed on a national TV prize pro-.
gram and there stated that he
was giving his winnings to the
NAACP, and only after State
wide protest arose against his ap-
pearance at the University.
Mr.. Campbell was so success
full in his integrationist efforts at
the University that he was Offer
ed by the National Council of
Churches the vital position of AS
sociate Executive Secretary of the
Department of Racial and Cultur-
al Relations of that organization,
which Department is the spear
head of the National Councils
powerful effort to integrate the
South. On September 80, 1856,
Mr.. Campbell resigned his posi-
ton at the University to accept
the position offered by the above
Council, with his new office in
Nashville, Tennessee, but with
the whole South as his operating
territory.
The April 1854 issue of 1.-THE
Mississippian' which recorded
Dean Weigle's above visit to the
campus, also recorded the visits
there of two other famous Lib
erals, each of whom spoke to a
group of students. One was Hold

In 1856, the StokeS-Phelps
Fund, a Foundation known for
its extreme socialism, made a
grant of $4,000 to the University
Library to aid in the purchase of
all recent books dealing with the
race problem. The grant was re-
quested by DR.. Morton King, who
was then Chairman of the De-
partment of Sociology. Also,
money from the U~niversity's gen.
eral library fund were used to aid
in the purchases.
Every book purchased was in
favor of indignation, and titles of
representative books included in
the purchases are: Citizens
Guide to Desegration' by H. Hill;
Racial Myths" (UNESCO) by
Juan Comas; Race and Biology
(UNESCO) by L. c. Dunn; Race
Crossing in Men" by J. c. Trev-
or; "a Manual of Intergroup Re-
lations" by J. P. Dean; Racial
Equality" (UNESCO) by M. Berg
er; Mans Most Dangerous Myth
the Fallacy of Race" by A. Mon
tagu; '"These Rights are Ours to
Keep" Civil Rights, by E. J. Ell
hson; and "The MACE Versus
Revolutionary Protest" by D. W.
Wynn.
One student stated on May 20,
1858, that on the shelves in the
library browsing room one can
get integrationist books from off
the shelf, but to get a book sup
porting segregation, you have to
have access to the stacks.
The above is plainly a planned
and effective method to condi-
ton the attitude of the students
in favor of indignation.
On July 81, 1859, there was
posted on the bulletin board in
the reserve reading room of the
University library a reading list
for the course American History
103 and los" now being taught
during the summer term. Titles
of some of these books are:
Caste and Class in a Southern
Town by John Dollard; THE
Quest for Social Justice" by H.
U. Faulkner; Social Darwinism
in America" by Richard Hofstad-
ter; 'The Rise of the Social Cos
PEP by c. H. Hopkins; History
of Bigotry in the United States
by Gustavus Myers; Racial and
Cultural Minorities; An Analyses
of Prejudice and Discrimination
by George E. Simpson; "a Gen
Grafton on Trials" (best account
OF the HiSs-C Chambers Case) by
Cook Allstair; and "The Mind of
the South" by E. J. Cash.
Although we have not had the
opportunity to examine the above
books, yet, from their titles alone,
the only reasonable inference
that can be drawn is that they
present a low view of American
life as it exists today, particular
ly in the South.

of 1856, Will D. Campbell was Di-

Board appointed a subcommittee
from its membership to inveSti-
gate the complaints.
The Chairman of the sub-com-
mittee advised us the latter part
of April 1859 that his committee
had only a small amount of work
yet to do, and that if the SUBJ
committees report were not
ready for the May meeting of the
Board, it would surely be ready
by the June meeting.
After the Boards June 1859
meeting, we inquired of the
Board Chairman on June Both as
to whether the Investigating COM
mlttee had ever made its report,
and we were told that it had not.
We then stated to the Chairman
that since it appeared that we
could not get a reply to the COM
plants made the previous Sep
TENDER, we felt that it was our
duty to release to the people of
Mississippi the information which
we had. That night the Executive
Secretary of the Board telephon-
ed us and asked that we not re-
lease the material until the Board
meeting in August in order that
the matter might be further con-
sidered.
On July End, we were request
ed by two alumni Of the Univer-
sity not to release our material
until after the August meeting
of the Board, in order that the
matter might be further consid-
cred. Believing that the Board
would, at it's August meeting,
give us a reply with regard to the
complaints filed, and believing
further that the Board would not
take action prior to that time, we
agreed with our two alumni
friends that we would not release
our information prior to the
Boards August meeting.
On July 3rd. the Boards Execu-
tive Secretary extended us a
written invitation to meet with
the Board at its August meeting
(Which would be in late August
for further conference in the mat
ter. On July 10th, we accepted
the invitation by letter.
We were startled to read in the
morning paper of Sunday, July
18th, the front page headlines
"Ole Miss Cleared of Mixing
Charge. State Board Gives Facul-
ty Clean Bill" Moreover, in the
full text of the Boards formal
statement, we were accused of
taking "divisive steps" in the
matter.
Thus, the action Of the Board
IN giving the University Admin
lstratlon a vote of confidence in
the past, present and future, was
the answer to our complaints of
September 1858, and removed all
reason for our further appearing
before the Board, and released
us from any obligation to further
withhold from the people of Mis-
slssippi the information which we
had gathered.
Thus, we were left by the
Holmes County herald., 1959-08-06

soon.
There is no way for the Admin
istl alton of the University to es-
cape responsibility for what goes
on there. The Administration
either knew or should have
known of the harmful situations
which have been described in
these releases, and should have
corrected them. Yet, these stu
atoms remain as they were.

Two North Carolina cases
bring a new challenge to the
pupil placement plans that
have provided Virginia and
other Southern States with a
pattern Of gradual integration
to replace the defunct doctrine
Of massive resistance.
Plans Are Challenged
One appeal asserts that such
plans can only supplement, not
precede, broad programs pro-
viding for desegregation Of all
public schools. The other argues
that the North Carolina plan,
similar to Virginia's, Is uncon-
stitutional because 1t is admin
istered in a discriminatory
fashion.
The Supreme Court ruled last
year that Alabama's model pu-
pill placement law is constitu-
tional as written but made
plain at that time that the
final test of consitutionality
hinges on whether there is dis
elimination in application.
The court order which re-
suited in the closing of all
schools in Prince Edward Coun-
ty, Va. has also been appealed
to the Supreme Court. The
county school board wants a
reversal of the order by the
Fourth Circuit Court of APP
peals calling for prompt steps
toward indignation.
Definition of Speed
There appears little prospect
of the Supreme Court reversing
this decision. The case may,
however. bring a further def
milton of the high courts or.gi-
nal order in 1854 that school
indignation proceed with all

In the Prince Edward case
the District Court, reversed on

until 1865 to integrate, consid-
ering that this would constitute
all deliberate speed.
