sons, unable alone to sustain the
heavy costs of litigation, and more
subject than others to hostile pres
sures, these laws and pressures
will increasingly paddock out of
court the Negroes and also the
Spanish-speaking Americans of the
Southwest in their efforts to main
tain suits to carry out the law of
the land.
To meet this situation, the prop
osed legislation would authorize
the Attorney General of the United
States to start civil actions for
preventive relief against those who
deprive persons of their rights to
equal protection of the laws, on
account Of race, color, religion, or
national origin.
This authority is much like that
provided in part III of the 1857
bill H. r. 1927, and In the 1855
measure, H. r. 627. AS I have said,
on two occasions it was overwhelm-
ingly approved by the House. The
authority is more explicitly and
clearly set forth here, however, in
titles v and vi.
Title v
Title v confers the power to file
compliance actions in school cases
in connection with approved deseg-
regation plans, when the Secretary
certifies that all efforts to secure
compliance by Cancellation, assist
ance, and otherwise have failed.
Title vi first authorizes pre-

and local officials and others act

protection generally, including
school cases, by reason Of race,
color, religion, or national origin;
but it provides that the Attorney
General may sue only upon a
signed complaint, and when. in his
judgement, the person aggrieved
is unable to seek effective legal
protection for himsef-section sol.
Suits are also authorized by the
Attorney General against those
who attempt to prevent local offic-
ials from according persons equal
protection of the laws, or who act
to hinder the execution of court
orders for equal protection-sec-
ton 602. Action to deprive per-
sons of their rights under the 14th
amendment because such persons
are opposing denial of the rights of
others, is also made a basis for
legal action by the Attorney Cen
eral section 603. In addition,
the Attorney General is explicitly
authorized to intervene in cases
brought by others for relief
against the denial of equal protec-
ton of the laws, because Of race,
color, religion, or national origin
6O4.
Thus, in the field of legal RENE
dies, also, this measure would ex-
tend a significant helping hand of
the National Government to the
SAT guarding of constitutional
rights.
The sponsors of this measure do
not claim that it is perfect. They
hope that it may be carefully
studied, strengthened and improved
in Committee.
But at least it is a frank effort
to deal constructively with the
most pressing issue in the field of
civil rights, the problem of school
desegregation.
1t is a means of securing the
cooperation of the various levels
of government, Of giving aid
and assistance of the Federal gov
eminent in the maintenance of
Constitutional rights, Of assuring
those who are denied these rights
that Congress and the Executive,
as we'll as the Courts,-that is to
say, all the orderly processes of
government,-will be active in the
protection of their rights.
1t is a practical means Of avoid
ing the insults, the acts of violence,
the frightened school children Of
whatever race or color, the fearful
the repressed persons of
good will, and the breaches Of law
and order.
Ire emphasis is on assistance,
persuasion, consultation, careful

compilation and distribution of
data, the making of surveys, the
arrangement of conferences, the
appointment of advisory councils,
the provision of specialists serv-
ices, and the development of COM
munity understanding for deseg-
regation programs that are in
harmony with the Constitution.
Appropriations up to S2.5 million
a year for 5 years are authorized
for these purposes.
Title III
This title authorizes the Secre-
tary to make grants for school
facilities in areas where the chief
problem preventing or hindering
effective compliance is the lack Of
adequate buildings or other physi-
cal equipment.
1t also authorizes grants for
employing additional teachers, in
service teacher training, employ
ment Of specialists, short-term
training courses, and other addi-
tional educational measures under
taken to eliminate segregation,
while at the same time assuring
that existing educational standards
will not be lowered.
Funds would also be available
to local communities that wish
to comply with the Courts decis-
ions, but where, as in Georgia and
Virginia, the State threatens to
cut off funds or close the schools.
Appropriations Of not more than
40 million a year for years are
authorized to cover the costs of
the grant programs.
Title w
The bill further provides in title
" that when other methods fail,
the executive branch of Govern
ment, acting through the Secretary
Of Health, Education, and Welfare,
shall assume responsibility for in
itiating the development Of de-
segregation plans to accomplish
the detectives Of the Courts decis-
ions. In the development of both
the tentative and approved plans,
however, there are express provis-
ions for the fullest possible local
consultation and participation.
The responsibility to go forward
in a situation in which officials
are hostile is now almost entirely
in the hands Of private individuals
and organizations. Experience has
shown that this problem will not
become any less troublesome If
we countenance the resulting de-
lay.
C. Federal Assistance In Legal
Remedies
The bill also provides for Fed
eral assistance in legal remedies
under titles v and VI.
In the history Of Americas ad-
vance toward equal justice, court
proceedings have been the means
of making many Of our greatest
forward steps. They are still an
indispensable part of our protec-
tons against racial discrimina-
lions.
A growing group of States,
however, have passed so-called
antibarratry laws which make it
much more difficult for civil-rights
groups or others to assist persons
in bringing or maintaining law
suits for the vindication Of their
civil rights. Other forms of pres
sure such as organized boy
colts, threats, and intimidation -
have also been used to deter such
legal actions.

Madame:
] am charmed with your description of Paradise
and with your plan of living there, and l approve
much Of your conclusion that in the meantime we
should draw all the good can from this world. In
my opinion, we might all draw more good from it
than we do and suffer less evils if we would take care
not to give too much for whistles. Most unhappy
people are become so by neglect of that caution.
You ask what mean? You love stories and will
excuse my telling one of myself
When was child of seven years old my friends
on holiday filled my pocket with coppers. went
directly to shop where they sold toys for chill
dren, and being charmed with the sound of whistle
that met by the way in the hands of another boy,
voluntarily offered and gave all my money for
I then came home and went whistling all over the
house, much pleased with my whistle, but disturb
ing all the family. My brothers and sisters and
cousins, understanding the bargain had made, told
me had given four times as much for it as it
worth, put me in mind what good things might have
bought with the rest of the money, and laughed at
me SO much for my folly that cried with vexation;
and the reflection gave me more chagrin than the
whistle gave me pleasure.
This. however, was afterward of use to me, the
impression continuing my mind, that often
when was tempted to buy some unnecessary thing
said to myself, don't give too much for the whistle;
and saved my money.

Bp. Walsh Now
Seriously Ill
Travellers Saw

HONG KONG = (NC) -
Bishop James E. Walsh, Mn.
the last American missionary
in Red China, is gravely Ill
and under treatment in a
Shanghai hospital, according
to a report received here.
The report was given by
two travellers who arrived
here from Shanghai.
The Maryknoll Bishop, a
native of Cumberland, Md, is
a veteran of three decades of
service in China, but he has
been severely limited in his
activities for the past several
years. A report in January
said the Bishop was well"
but still under detention in a
Shanghai hospital.
In December, 1865, it was
reported that the Bishop was
placed under "house arrest"
and was being questioned dali
" about his contacts with
foreign agents"
1t was learned at the time
that the Bishop was not i'll,
but that his condition was
very weak and would prob
ably become worse under the
strain of questioning.
When the Bishop was re-
ported to be under arrest, the
US. State Department said it
would make every effort to
obtain freedom for him.
