A Call


evil actions which are too remi-
niscent of our darkest days. The
spirit of violence has manifested
itself and even academic freedom
took body blows in a good many
Southern colleges.
Under the leadership of Vir-
ginia, politicians of the South
rode off like headless horsemen
into the woods of notification, or
''massive resistance" in pursuit
of every evasion of the decree
which slick, if not smart, lawyers
could devise. The dark cloud of
Indignation or de-segregation, call
it whatever you will, obscures
most other considerations.
Nobody has yet told the story
of what the Supreme Court de-
cision has done to the mind of the
South. Indignation to much of the
South is not merely putting white
boys and girls in the same class
room with Negro boys and girls.
It is challenge to a whole way
of life; it has driven the South -
at least those who control the po-
1itical destinies of eight South
ern states - back into introver-
sion, into an isolationist mood,
into an insularity so intense that
it feels embittered martydom. 1t
challenges the world with such
intensity that its representatives
in the Senate and House cannot
act with reality.
The question of Indignation pol
flutes all the channels of Southern
life. It makes a Fullbright of Ar
kansas, one of the better senators,
one of the more intelligent inter
nationalist, one of the more in
formed critics of our foreign pol
icy, vote for a Supreme Court rip
per bill that would in effect tear
up the national Bill of Rights and
set up 48 different concepts of the
civil rights of American citizens.
God save us from the concept of
civil rights that prevails in some
Of the deep Southern states! But
Senator Fulbright was not alone.
Leaving aside Kentucky and Mis-
souri,, whose senators voted to
kill the bill, the effort to strip the
Supreme Court of its powers raj
lied only four Southern senators
in opposition. Twenty Southern
senators voted for an idea that
would have constituted a national
tragedy because they saw in it an
opportunity to pass laws against
segregation and to punish the SUI
preme Court.
It took the Senate nine months
to confirm the Presidents nomi-
nee for head Of the Civil Rights
Commission - and then over the
bitter opposition of Southerners.
Alaskan statehood was siren
uously opposed by Southerners
under the leadership of Russell
and Stennis because it would give
the Senate two more members
who would not be sympathetic to
the Southern stand.
The whole field of legislation
has been clouded by the South's
attitude toward desegregation or
migration: the Presidents educa-
ton bill was defeated and sub
stituted; the Housing bill went
down to defeat without substitu-
ton, with % Southern representa- /
tives voting against it.
This feeling of being embattled, /
this determination to protect its
way of life, come hell or high |
water, come hydrogen world or
not, has led the South into iso-
lationism which has never been
part of its tradition until recent
years. On the contrary, it has
been the most internationally
minded of all sections of the !

On Atomic Arms
Sent to Congress

President Eisenhower sub
mitted to Congress yesterday an
agreement providing for trans
fer of certain classified infor-
nation and equipment to help
train Greek defense forces In
the use of atomic weapons.

erlands and Turkey, sent to

enable the United States to CO.
operate effectively in training
Greek NATO forces SO that the
Greek forces could effectively
use nuclear weapons in their
defense" If an attack on NATO
should occur.
Besides unspecified classified
information. the agreement
provides for transfer to Greece
Of mon -nuclear parts Of atomic
weapons systems.
The agreement becomes ef-
fective in so days unless Con-
gress passes q resolution re-
jecting 1t.
