Supreme Court Hit
Their action through the

fallacy of the conclusion by the
NAACP and the United States
Supreme Court that the mix
ing of the Negro and white
races in public housing and
schools is in the best interest

He said the Negroes, to be

The Negroes constitute a

Nixon Calls
For Faith in
Democracy

MIDDLESBORO, KY, July
4 (AP).-Vice President Nixon
warned yesterday that America
must keep a pioneering spirit
and faith in democracy or lose
the giant struggle against
communism.
The Vice President, taking
part in a park dedication,
touched on the serious note in
reference to Deputy Premier
Frol r. Kozlov of the Soviet
Union, now visiting the United
States.
Mr.. Nixon said he was i'm
pressed most with Mr.. Kozlov's
dedication to the cause of
communism.
HE has a faith and belief
that his cause-communism-
was right; that he would win
in putting that view across"
1--WE know that idea is wrong,
Mr.. Nixon told a throng of U.s.
900 observing the dedication of
Cumberland Gap National His
torical Park.
Mr.. Nixon described Mr.. Koz-
low. with whom he had a heat
ed discussion in Washington
Wednesday, as a highly intel
ligent man with s keen sense
of humor.
If Mr.. Kozlov lived in the
United States. Mr.. Nixon said,
he would be a highly effective
political figure.
Mr.. Nixon's visit prefaced
formal dedication of the his
torical park which takes place
today. Secretary of Interior
Seaton will be the dedication
speaker.

We are here today for the
ceremonial laying of a corner
stone = a ceremony that has
twice before marked the history
of this building. the Capitol
of the United States of America.
BY this symbolic gesture we
do more than to recognize and
provide for new needs resulting
from national growth. We re-
dedicate ourselves to the prin-
ciple of representative govern
ment. We reaffirm our devo-
ton to the values upon which
this Republic rests.
These values, unequivocally
stated in the Declaration of
independence, in our Bill of
Rights, and in other parts of
that remarkable document, the
American Constitution - are
both the hallmarks and the
hand tools of freedom. In a
free society they must be priced
and they must be used, lest
freedom wither.
In the collision of ideas be-
tween freedom and despotism.
freedom is neither won nor
held in a climate of spiritual
stalemate. Its preservation is
a many-sided and reverend
ing task.
COmplacency Is A Danger
Complacency today speeds
the erosion of liberty tomorrow.
Inertia will destroy it; dynamic
dedication assures its lasting
vitality.
On this Fourth of July, 1873
years since our Nation en-
barked on its course of in
dependence, we are reminded
that our Declaration of indie
pendence did more than gall
vanize the idea of freedom for
our own people.
The generation that pro-
duced our Declaration of indie
pendence," said Lincoln, meant
to set up a standard maxim for
free society which should be
constantly looked to, constantly
proximated, and thereby con-
stai7tly spreading and deepen
ing its influence and augment
ing the happiness and value of
life to all people of all colors
everywhere.
Each of these three corner
stone ceremonies has marked
stages of Americas evolution.
The Young Nation
In 1893, when President
Washington laid the corner
stone of the original Capitol
building, a young but vigorous
Nation was struggling into po-
litical existence.
Fifty-eight years later, when
President Fillmore laid the cor
nerstone of the House and Sem
ate wings. the Nation was no
longer in it's infancy.
On that day a proud Daniel
Webster extolled the progress
of the United States since 1893
from Is States to 81; from
200 post Offices to $1,000; from
IS colleges to 694-and why it
had become necessary to en-
large the Capitol building.
Again this ceremony repre-
sents growth. America has
come a long way since the lay
ing of the 1851 cornerstone.
Yet it is somehow unneces-
sary to commemorate this &C.
caslon by reminding ourselves
OF the bare statistics of cultural
and material growth-for ex-
ample, that our Nations COL
leges and universities have
grown from 694 to 1857.
Meaning Of Day
Rather, we come here today
to remind ourselves of our
responsibilities-to the world
and to ourselves.
We come here to rekindle
our faith that this building
the central home of Americas
representative government. will
house wisdom, understanding
and compassion for all people |
Finally, we gather on this
Fourth of July-as our fore /
fathers did at Independence

Juror Return
Question
InMackCase
BY KARL II. BAUMAN
Associated Press star Writer

AbbociAteu rteba stan Wrltet
The question Of whether jury
deliberations can be completed
in the conspiracy case Of Rich
ard A. Mack and Thurman A.
Whiteside still depends heavily
on the condition Of a hospital
lied Juror.
There will be no answer be-
fore Tuesday; perhaps not
then, If it appears Joseph D.
Carroll, IS, might be able to
rejoin his fellow jurors in the
near future.
Ex-FCC Member
Mr.. Mack, a former member
>of the Federal Communications
Commission. and Mr.. White
side, his wealthy Miami attor-
ney friend, are charged with
conspiring to rig the award of
the Miami TV Channel 10 per-
NIT while Mr.. Mack was an
FEC commissioner.
The situation today stood
just where it did Wednesday
when Mr.. Carroll was taken
from the jury room for medical
aid and wound up in Wash
ington Hospital Center with a
deputy marshal watching over
him.
The same, that is, except
that the remaining II jurors no
longer are locked up in the
United States Court House.
District Judge Burnita S.
Matthews late yesterday
allowed. the jurors to go to
their homes with orders to
come back Tuesday when later
reports will be available on Mr..
CAROLS condition.
Has Infection
DR.. S. George Anagnos, who
is treating Mr.. Carroll, reported
yesterday the Juror was resting
more comfortably. He said x
rays still were being taken, but
the indications were that Mr..
Carroll was suffering from an
infection in the pelvis region.
For a short time yesterday
it appeared that an ll-member
jury would decide the case.
Opposing attorneys drew up
and signed papers agreeing to
this procedure. Judge Mat
thewS promptly agreed to it.
But when the Judge dis
closed a short time later that
the jury, before Mr.. Carroll
left, had asked for documents
and portions of the transcript,
Nicholas j. Chase. Mr.. Mack's
lawyer, demanded the agree
ment be set aside. Mr.. Chase
said the defense should have
been given this information
before entering into the Stipu-
lation.
Minor Tempest
The judge said that when
she got the message from the
jury she tried to find all
counsel to report it, but that
Mr.. Chase hadn't reached the
courthouse. When Mr.. Car
roll became ill, she said. she
concerned herself with seeing
to it he got needed medical
attention. BY then, the judge
added, the message was no
longer important since the IL
OCner jurors were COlo 10 cease
their deliberations.
"All this is tempest in a
teapot" the judge told Mr..
Chase, granting his motion.
Defense attorneys later de-
manded a mistrial on the
ground there was no telling
when Mr.. Carroll would be able
to return to duty. They
argued that there was no way
of isolating the jurors, once
released from the courthouse,
from newspaper, radio and TV
accounts of the case.
The Mack Whiteside trial
has been under way since
April 7. j. Frank Cunning
ham, the chief Government
prosecutor, said that because of
the trials length every effort
should be made to obtain a
verdict.
