Among the problems, with which

Any southerner whose ancestor
was a soldier in the American Rev
olution has a proud heritage, but
even more SO to my mind has the
one whose forbearer followed Bob
Lee, rode with Forest. was wound
ed at Shiloh or fought at Gettes-
burg.
Beyond even that, one whose
parent was a trusted member OF
the Ku Klux Khan. during the early
days of the reconstruction in the
central south he too. may be proud
OF his ancestry. Only those VINO
lived in those dark days can know
of the borrow of having ones
slaves become his rulers, and see
a proud race of people governed
by their servants, and remnants
of the Union army.
Remnants of the Union army
left here after the War reinforced
by a horde of office seekers who

Communism as such is not in
itself dangerous; the real danger
lies in the Communist infiltration.
They worm themselves into the
industrial. agricultural, economic.
social, governmental and religious
institutions of the country, get
themselves elected to positions OF
trust, and then the deadly work Is
done.
"It is in the Communist-front
organizations. and among the fel.
low travellers that the danger lies.
Out in the open. and of themselves
the Commies can do little or nc
harm; but the responsibility and
standing these organizations and
individuals give them, they infilt-
rate into the best society,""
Unlike propaganda agehcies
working to inflame Negro passions
and general racial hatreds in the
South, DR.. Holley believes that
segregation is best for all races.
The Bible is taken as the highest
source of authority on the subject.

Do you want a swimming poo
for the children and young people
of Lexington?
We believe you do and it is some
thing that has long been needed
for the addition and betterment
of recreational activities of the
community.
Many towns in the state much
smaller than Lexington have
swimming pools and. surely. what
they can do. we can too.
We hate to think of the number
of young people that can not swim
md this is something that every
body should learn for there is no
telling when a situation might
arise where if you did not know
how to swim a life would be lost.
And. too. swimming is one Of the
healthiest exercises anyone can
axe and enjoy.
Of course some of the younger
people will learn how to swim In
snake-infested rceeks or ponds
And there is also the danger oil
catching a disease or becoming
infected in a place that Is moi
clean, pure water. There Is no use
in listing the many dangers Of
such places for they are many.
Having a swimming pool fol
Lexington could be a cooperative
project for the civic, fraternal an6
patriotic organizations. A com.
bined effort is bound to get re.
suits along this line. Wishfu.
thinking will not do it. It Is going
o take a concerted effort to raise
the funds that would give our
town one of the best to be found
anywhere.
If you, as a progressive citizen
are interested in seeing that we dc
something for our children and
young people, we would like te
hear from you to learn how best
to go after it. What other towns
have done can surely be done Ii

NEW YORK TIMES REVEALS
STORY ABOUT SCHOOLS IN CITY


A Tchula Herald subscriber who
subScribes to the Sunday edition OF
the New York Times brought us
a clipping from the August Both
edition that reveals a story that
certainly must be shocking to the
NAACP and other Intergrationists.
Some Negro families in New
York the Page one story says, are
sending their children to segrega-
ted schools in the South because of
dissatisfaction with school condi-
lions in the city.
An estimated 1000 Negro child
rem are leaving integrated schools
In New York this year to enter
segregated schools in several
southern states because. as one
Negro said, these families found
it simpler to educate children in
the old culture than to make the
new, confusing city culture rele-
want to the lives of their children.
Most of the Negro parents COM
plain of oVercrowding in what they
say are neighborhood schools that
are segregated in fact. They say
these schools operate on split ses-
sionS and do not give full educa-
.ttonal opportunities to their child
ren.
Another reason for sending child
rem south is ''they worry also over
potential associations with delin-
quents that might affect their
children.

dangerous ground to permit
Nikita to visit here. There are
many refugees from behind the
Iron Curtain who would delight In
killing him for the untold thous-
ands of brutal murders he had
committed against some of their
families. And if they should kill
him it would naturally create an
other international incident. We
cannot recall a single instance
where anything good ever came
from talking to the big shots from
Russia. They are liars and cheats.
and promises are never kept by
them. History proves this.
Did it ever occur to you that the
biggest opponents Of Indignation
are the scalawags in the white
race. The colored man has little
time or thought about it. He wants
his w schools, churches. lodges,
and other organizations to him
self. Of course you have some so
called leaders in the colored race
that are making capital out of il
for their own enrichment. Take
away the dues collecting for a few
of the big ones and it would die
overnight. AS soon as the treasury
ran dry. there would be little In
centive for the graft and pillaging
that is going on.
AS long as they can create some
big hoax and get the federal
courts to side with them, the long
er they will collect money to
bring such suits. But our northern
friends are rapidly finding out that
indignation and LEGITIMACY go
hand in hand. The riots that are
being created are a ~forerunner OF
worse to come. Watch and see.

Holmes Countians won't be able

Marshal Jack Hamack for the
office.
Women at one time could not

privilege until their efforts were vic

they began to run for public office.
And although we have had women
running for and holding elected

it is only now that a woman has

motorist violating this law is sub
ject to punishment to the fullest
extent of the law.
But speeders endanger children
waiting for the buses on the side
of the highway. One bad move
could result in tragedy if your car
goes out of control. It could also
lead to the manning or killing Of
a child who ventured too near the
side of the highway.
The safest plan is to slow down
when you see a group of children.
Remember those little lives are
precious to someone.
This selfsty1ed dictator. Paul

a jackass is the emblem Of the

latest slobberings that Southerners
are worthless and have no place
in the party for their views and
opinions. It Is such thinking as
his that has put the scum elements
of our nation in charge of so many
governmental places and has run
rough shod over the decent people
who made this country great.
If this fellow Butler had his way
there would be no use in having g
convention at all. He would do al
the nominating himself and rur

that did not coincide with his
views. When anybody thinks he is
