Dear Sir:
I appreciate the attitude you
take and your request to Presi-
dent-elect John Kennedy on the
civil rights issue. I wish more
people in Mississippi would seek
more peaceful channels for solv-
ing these difficult issues.
l agree with everyone that more
should be done to improve the cul-
tural opportunities Of the colored
people but / believe also that the
courts are wrong in demanding
such a move that has brought
about so much discord and illwill
among so many of our people.
I am enclosing a letter which
was mailed to President Eisenhow-
er, and will also be mailed to Pres
ident Kennedy, and is already be-
ing mailed to some of the Sena-
tors and representatives in Wash
ington.
l have already received a very
friendly reply from President Ell
senhower.

thing is certain, both white and

Elected From Embassy

Twelve Iranian students stag

by police, who charged them
with unlawful entry.
The arrests at 4:30 am. broke
up an attempt by the students
to gain assurance that two
leaders of the Iranian Student
Association will not be sent
back to Iran.
This afternoon a score of
Iranian students paraded with
signs near the Embassy. They
said they would continue to
demonstrate until they learned

Corcoran trustees recently re-
jected a gift offer from New

conditioned their offer on the
construction of a new wing OF
the Corcoran for the exhibit.
Still Hope for New Wing
Corcoran trustees still hope
money can be raised to provide
the wing.
The legislation was drawn in
line with a suggestion by Cor

trustee of the Corcoran Gallery,
that the Federal Government
adopt" the Corcoran on the
same basis as the National Gal
