Justice Department attorneys
today planned to speed the
filing of their opposition brief
to a Supreme Court appeal by
racist John Kasper from his
contempt conviction. an out
growth Of the 1856 deSegrega-
ton disorders at Clinton
(Tenn) High School.
Yesterday the High Court
refused to review the contempt
of court convictions Of six
others implicated in the dis
orders. Kasper's petition for
review was filed about two
weeks ago but cannot be acted
upon until the Governments
opposition is in. He had been
convicted and sentenced to six
months Imprisonment on
charges that he violated a Fed
eral court order against inter-
fering with desegregation at
the high school.
Joseph NJ. F. Ryan. assistant
chief Of the Justice Depart
ment's Civil Rights Division,
said the Government aims to
file in the. next few days in the
hope that the issue can be dis
posed of before the court recess
ses this month.
Those involved in yesterdays
case had been placed on proba-
ton for varying periods. They
had been charged with violat-
ing and conspiring with Kasper
to violate the Federal court
injunction.
In their unsuccessful plea
for review, the group con-
tended, among other COM
plants, that the Federal court
had added the conspiracy
charge to an amended bench
warrant without giving them
proper notice. The Govern
ment declared the bench war;
rant procedure was proper in
contempt cases.
The men had been accused
Of congregating in a threaten
ing manner and intimidating
IL Negro children, thus keep
ing them from entering the
school.

from the court. He added that
the process requires about a

learned his lesson-our sagacious
House of Representatives has
censured him, eighty-nine mobiles
of that august body, no less. The
noble eighty-nine said that all
might hear: Carter sold out Mis-
sissippi for $4,000 pieces of silver
And Carter, uninformed migrate
that he is, replied: go to hell"
A special invitation he offered,
mind you.
Now isn't that just awful?
Among that august group who
set Carter straight were nineteen
who were not SO august, they
had the nerve to refuse to vote
for the resolution to condemn
Carter. Can you possibly imagine
that? And one of them, who does
Mt know that the silly idea of
forward motion is contrary to
progress, youngster from Stone
County, Mississippi Joel Blass,

the Citizens Councils. They exist
for the avowed purpose of de-
stroying any person who dis
agrees with them. Economic pres
sure, chief weapon of the coun-
ellis, is inhumane and not worthy
of white men. Such methods do
violence to the principles Of jus
tice."
We ask you, just how wrong
can anyone get?
Possibly Blass is too young to
know the benefits of our move
ment-but there were eighteen
Understanding will have to
be done with those misguided
misfits.
But the Delta Demon, Holding
Carter, should have known bet
ter surely he can realize the
fact that our glorious leaders will
take the curl out of his tail, in
deed, may even pinch it off, if he
isn't careful and doesn't get in
line.
Maybe he thinks the hope of
knowing the truth and trying to
understand it leaves him without
the need of tail, or a curl in it.
Well, if our leaders haven't con-
WINGED him yet, they will You
know, Carter won the Pulitzer
Award once, but, Of course, that's
of no consequence wasn't ap-
proved by our sagacious leaders,
nor by cur glorious Legislature.
Briefly, there you have it. AS a
100% red blooded Mississippian,
we feel the Magnolia should give
way to the crawfish-and soon,
too. Progress in our. state is made
that way, and everyone knows
that the route is downhill, back

ing election year, a lot of good
mud is going to be needed.)

they had understood it. They
were told the amendment would
solve the segregation problem.
They were misled."

ing in the wrong direction, that's
all.
Our wonderfully gifted leaders
have protected us further than
most of us realize. They told us
to turn over our public schools
to the Legislature, and anytime
anyone, inside or outside our
state, tried to differ with our
opinion, the public schools would
be abolished. That's more prog
ress. truly representative; the
kind we need if we're to hoist
the Crawfish symbol. And an
other thing, that will teach those
backward, slow witted, hill
climbing crawfish thing or two.
None of this business of the bull
swinging the tail with our lead
ers; indeed, anytime the tail can't
swing the bull, why, We'll just
simply progress some more to-
ward the mudhole.
An interesting sidelight on this
admirable situation is the recent
mandate from the Legislature to
the Trustees Of Institutions OF
High Learning, having to do with
screening speakers before they
be allowed to address students in
the state. Why, indeed, anyone
with an idea different from ours
should not be allowed to open
his. mouth-that's how trouble
gets started, someone going
around putting ideas into tn e
heads of young people. And to
think there are those ever-pres-
emit backward crawfish who cried
Out, "a backward step for higher
learning" We blush to think about
them-that is near treason. That
someone would question the type
of leadership we have is unfor-
givable.
Poor, sad, mistaken crawflsh
that they are, who think that up
hill, straight ahead, is the best
way to progress. Naturally, our
splendid leaders will deal with
them in fitting and proper
manner. One such misguided un-
fortunate is Holding Carter,
Demon of the Delta, who would
dare put the pursuit of truth
ahead of the interest Of our lead
crs. But we sort of figure he has

mans struggle with himself as his
mind tells him one thing and his
feelings are urging him in an
other direction. To make the de-
sires or the emotions balance
with the reasoning, the desire to
do what is right and just, in
spite of the strong emotions, is
a constant battle with the inner
man. Characters talk to them
selves as we'll as to each other,
wondering if they are satisfying
their mental as well as spiritual
needs.
In the next chapter a young
girl who plays principal part
in the story, Is brought into the
picture. A girl of sixteen was

an older man, and she was invit-
ed to 60 dancing. One paragraph
tells the story of what happens
to many young girls who are
attractive and mature looking.
She talks to herself. at was all

a crazy business 1t was! You
spun round and round, thinking
of nothing. While the music play
ed whole eternity went by like
life in novel. But as soon as it
stopped you had feeling of
shock, as if a bucket of water
were splashed over you or some
body had found you undressed.
Of course one reason why you
allowed anyone to be so familiar
was just to show how grown-up
you were"
Later in the chapter two fri
ends are discussing beauty and
welfare. a.. but Tolstoy says that
the more man devotes himself
to beauty the further he moves
away from goodness" g. you
think it is the other way round"
II think that if the beast who
sleeps in man could be held down
by threats - any kind of threat,
whether of Jail or of retribution
after death - then the highest
emblem of humanity would be
the LION tanner in the circus
with his whip
Then follows discussions of life
and God as many personalities
are brought in with their outlooks
on life. In the chapter Farewell
to the Old'' a political speaker
chided the people of the city =
For their disorganized ways and
for giving in to the disintegrating
influence of the Bolsheviks." But
this idea is opposed in another
discussion.
g" what you call disorder IS
just as normal a state of things
as the order you're SO keen about.
All this destruction - it's nor
NAL and preliminary stage of a
broad creative plan. Society has
not disintegrated sufficiently. 1t

then genuine revolutionary
government will put pieces to-

Under "The Moscow Encan1p-
ment" there is the account of a
disappointing coning-home party
during which they discovered
that "only a life similar to the
life around us, merging with It
without ripple, genuine life,
and that an unshared happiness
is not happiness"
So it becomes a study. Of in
dividual reactions and philoso-
phies while recording history.

A description of "The Train To
The Urals" is an interesting
study of life as it is lived during
brutal civil war. "The train
had twenty-three cars CThe Zhl-
vagos were in the fourteenth.
When it stopped at country sta
tons, only a few, front, middle or
end cars stood beside the short
platform.
Sailors were in front, civilians
were in the middle and the labor
conscripts in eight cars in the
back. There were about five hum
dred of the latter, people of all
ages, conditions and professions.
"They were remarkable
sight - rich, smart lawyers and
stockholders from Petrigrad side
by side with cab drivers, floor
polishers, bath attendants, Tartar
ragpick ers, escaped lunatlcs,
shop-keepers, and monks, all
lumpe d with the exploiting
classes"
The train passed town that
looked prosperous. Turil said =

on. Some people are happy. Not
everyone is wretched. This JUS

true. But it isn't Take a trip
that is fifty miles from the rail-
way. You'll find that there are
peasant rebellions everywhere.
Against who? you'll ask. Well,
they're against the Reds or again

to be in power. You'll say, Aha,
that is because the peasants are
enemies of all authority, they
don't know what they want. AL

knows very we'll what he wants,
better you or ! do, but he wants
something quite different"
"When the revolution woke
him up, he decided that his CEN
fury old dream had come true
his dream of living on his own
land by the work of his hands,
in complete independence and
with no obligations to anyone.
Instead he found he had only
changed the oppression OF the
former state for the new, much
harsher yoke of the revolution

train, he writes - 1.-TWO men
were talking underneath the
bunk"
1'Well, have they had their tails
twisted yet? Are they keeping
quiet now?"

After the Zhivagos got off the
train at their destination an in

with native of the place. After
question by Yurii the native
answered = ''Of my father being

"But what about your social
