THOUGHTS ON THE WEST
VIRGINIA PRIMARY - Some
one, it seems, forgot to tell the
voters of West Virginia that they
were "bigots" and not supposed
to vote for John F. Kennedy for
President.
Actually the sort of thing that
was stirred up in West Virginia
= the so-called religious issue"
- is not a matter to be taken
lightly. The politicians who play
ed with it were playing with e.
motional dynamite. But that is
not the worst part of it.
I think newspapermen exag-
gerrated this issue more than the
politicians did. One nationally
syndicated columnist wrote that
Sen. Hubert Humphrey was, in
effect, directing his appeal to
poor white trash, that he was
the beneficiary of the most be-
nighted elements in West Virgin
la society and that Kennedy was
the victim of the worst sort OF
religious prejudice.
Another writer for big cas-
tern paper interviewed three or
four people, maybe one or two
more, and wrote a piece that ran
for several columns on how much
bigotry there was in the state
and how Ku Klux Khan senti-
ment fingered from the EOS and
30s.
The fact is that the Democrats
of West Virginia were scarcely
influenced at all by religious pre-
JUDGE, just as they were not
back in 1928 when Al Smith
won a primary in that state
Otherwise Kennedy could not
have scored his triumph.
This should not lead anyone
to conclude that prejudice might
not yet emerge as an important
factor between now and the Los
Angeles convention; or after

Poverty was always a living

Or I would stroll into the lobby
of a fashionable hotel and walk
around for as long as l dared,
making believe that belonged

it was, and doubtless there must

gainst refusal of service at chain
store lunch counters is primarily
an attack on Southern custom
and tradition rather than Sou
thern laws. This underscores a
fact too long neglected, both
North and South: that the real
heart of the segregation problem
is a moral issue, rather than a
legal one. 1t will never be salts
factorily solved until that fact has
been faced with candor.
Northern integrationists, fol-
lowing the governments lead of
1854, have generally taken the
line that compliance with the law
of the land is all that is essen
TALLY required. This legalistic ap-
proach has also been accepted by
most Southern moderates, who
view indignation as something re-
gretable but unavoidable. It's 60
ing to come, they say, and we
might as well get used to it even
if we don't like it.
But peaceful Indignation will
never be achieved on the basis
of the banal ''my country, right
or wrong" 1t will be achieved
only when and if most of the peo-
pie of the South come to feel that
| it is the right path to take, a
path compatible with American
ideals which they hold as dear
as anyone else. Social customs
rest on values which people che
IRISH; and if there is to be an ac-
ceptable change in customs they
must be seen in new light IN
relation to those values. Racial
segregation is long-standing GUS
tom in the South. The question
now demanding review is whe-
Their it is good custom.
So Little Discussion
think it unfortunate that
there has been so little discussion
of the problem in these terms.
American democracy depends a
bove all on free and vigorous
discussion of what the people
want - what they think is NOR
ally good and right. 1t is gem
orally accepted, for instance, that
it is healthy and proper for A
merican students, from grade
school through college, to dis
cuss important social problems
as part Of their education. Yet
my impression is that the moral
aspect of segregation have been
little discussed in public schools,
perhaps especially in the South,
that on the contrary these as
poets have usually been avoided
Even at the college level, discus
sions of the problem are often
too legalistic and technical -
bristling with points about the
Constitution and states rights -
| to get at the heart of the mat
ter.
What happens when thorough
discussion of segregation as 8
moral problem is conducted a.
mong Southern students? A few
years ago it was decided at North
Carolina State College that all
senior engineering students must
take a course called "Contem-
porary Issues" The idea was to
have them read background ma
terial, hear lectures and debates
and participate in discussion on
a series of controversial issues
which soon confront them as citi-
zens when they went out to take
| jobs in American industry. Clear
| ly, one of the most important and
controversial issues of all was
that of segregation; and despite
some misgivings, the staff teach
ing the course agreed that i
must occupy a prominent place
The Petal paper. [volume] (Petal, Miss.) 1953-19??, 1960-06-02
North CuroIiuno Teacher Soys
Segregation Is Moral Problem,
Not Legal

Since then about four weeks of
the course have been given to a
thorough examination and dis
cussion of the whole problem.
Down The Middle
Since 80 per cent of the stu
dents at North Carolina State
are Southerners born and bred,
and since several members of the
Contemporary Issues staff hap
pen to be from the North, it was
felt that an extra effort must be
made to conduct the investigation
of segregation in a fair, unbiased
way.
In addition to ample reading
matter on both sides, and an alb
solutely open forum in the class
room with no threat of reprisal
in terms of grades, weekly de-
bates by staff members are used
as a device to raise every rea-
sonable argument both pro and
con. Staff members assigned to
argue the segrationist side Of the
issue spare no pains to present
as good a case as can possibly be
made short of Justification of fact.
| (Once, when the staff conducted
such a debate on television, the
man who took segregationist side
was widely congratulated in this
area for his presentation.
The results have been interest
ing. On the basis of polls taken
in representative sections, it ap-
pears that, semester after semes-
ter, majority Of the senior en-
gineering class has slowly, pain
fully, sometimes grudgingly,
worked around to the conclusion
that, despite longstanding Sou
| thern tradition to the contrary,
segregation of the Negro cannot
be reconciled with the basic de-
mocratic principle of justice. And,
in relation to the problem as it
faces the nation today, the salient
! fact is this: while there has been
in the course an ample discus
sion of the legal and technical as
/ poets of segregation versus inte-
/ grafton, the point that finally
seems to sway most Southern stu
dents is not the necessity of o.
bedience of federal law, but the
| necessity of obedience to moral
i law.
What Is Justice?
Sometimes included in the
background material of the course
has been Robert Penn Warren's
book, segregation" and re-
mark he makes illustrates the ap-
preach to the problem many OF
the instructors have used. Mr.
Warren writes that s'desegraga-
ton is just one small episode in
the long effort for justice"
| The enveloping problem, then
the context for the discussion OF
segregation, is an age-old, very
simple (and very difficulty ques-
ton: What is justice? That ques-
ton, thrown point-blank to a
roomful of college seniors, ELECTS
variety of strange and interest
ing answers, as well as a good
deal of silence pregnant with
puzzled thought. But the impress
sive thing is that after kicking
the question around for a while
the average class is very likely
to come up with an objective de-
finition of justice closely resemb-
ling that given some 230O years
ago by Aristotle.
| Justice, they decide, is equal
treatment for equals. It prevails
when men are treated without

a MEMO TO ROY WILKINS OF THE N.A.A.cP.:

II my understanding that your organization concerned
bout the recent incident here The Magnolia Jungle having to &c
with the attempted negraton OF the beach at Biloxi well ko
fear YOU don't understand southern way OF lite MOI ruby no
not at all do you understand it.
lust the other day tried to explain il to friend whose
name YOU know mentioned it. and he didn't understand our way
of life so he came back at me with this:
The recent racial incident in Harrison County leaves in
its wake some question that, believe need answering.
In the first place. how did Harrison louny GET ITS 20
mile manmade beach?
was dredued Up number Of years ago by the Us gov
eminent Work was done under federal statute that pro-
vides for protection Of mitarly strategic highways.

to build the beach for road protection Kecreaon suPPose"

When compIeted, maintenance was taken over by Har-
rison County supervisors This is paid for by wocenf GAL
Ion naoIne tax on all fuel purchased the county, regard
less Of the purchasers racial origin.
don't know how many vehicle owners in the county are
Negroes but imagine the number is subsfanf'an.
Now I'm todfhe beach front belongs to adjacent prop
ery owners across the highway despite the fact that PUBIC
funds were used to build and maintain it.
That brings me to this:
Under our separate but equal theory why cant the pro-
poonate tax be figured and the Negro given access TO sucn
portion Of the 28-mile beach his taxes keep up!
Either that stop Ieving the two cent saon Deacn
maintenance lax on the gasoline he buys
And If the beach belongs to adjacent owners, despne
the fact that highway separates them from it. why was pup
lie money used in the first place to build and PUBIC 1unos
used now to maintain It? ,......
# adjacent property owners have the r'gnl TO Dsf me

City Kills
.392-Acre


Rockville city council
voted unanimously Tuesday
against annexing a 392-acre
tract west of the city which
is outside the proposed
maximum expansion area.
City planning commission
recommended denial of the re-
quest because:
. 1t is in a completely sepa.
rate sanitary drainage area
from that served by Rockville.
. Shady Grove I'd. has been
recommended as a future major
highway, which would cut off
the proposed annexation area
from the rest of the city.
. The Lakewood Country
Club area, recently annexed in
to the city, serves as a natural
buffer zone between the Rock
vile urban area and the more
rural flavor of the county.
Bernard Passman, head of the
Rockville Land Co. which owns
the tract, had told the council
he planned to develop the land
into half-acre lots and sell them
to builders and individuals, but
retaining control over the type
of houses to be built. Minimum
cost of the houses would be
$4,000 he said.
He wished the area to be
served by Rockville water, he
said, and the future of a 30-acre
lake he planned for the de-
velopment would be contingent
upon obtaining city water and
sewer services.
In other business the council
denied a request by Attorney
Alger Y. Barbee and Harper M.
Smith to rezone 100 S. Jeffer-
son from residential to office
use.
The two lawyers intended to
use the house for their offices.
Councilman Joseph C. Rodg-
ers said he hoped the present
denial would not set a prece-
dent which would prevent flu
ture councils from re-zoning the
property as the need arose.
Otherwise, he said, "this will
be an enclave of residential use
in the midst of Offices"

credited with a long list of
dramatic achievements.
Key instrument in a system
that conceivably could change
the pattern of navigation, the
satellite was conceived, design
ed and fabricated by personnel
of the Applied Physics Labora-
tory of the Johns Hopkins Uni
versity at Silver Spring. The
scientists are confident it is the
forerunner of a satellite naviga-
ton system capable of giving
sailors and airmen an accurate
position "fix" at all times, re-
gardless of weather conditions.
The 36.inch, 265-pound sphere
was developed under program
chiefly sponsored by the Ad-
vanced Research Projects Agen-
cy which gave major RESPONSE
biIity to the Navy Bureau of
