NAAcP Urges To Relax
In zoninq tses

Fairmont, w. Va.-Relaxation of
rigid school zoning to curb de
facto segregation in northern pub
Tic school systems was urged by
an NAACP spokesman in an ad-
idfess prepard for delivery at
the closing session of the three
day 18th annual conference of the
NAACP West Virginia State or
ganization here Sunday (Sept. III
afternoon.
Gloster B. Current, the Associa-
TONS national director of branches,
told the West Virgihians that the
NAACP ''is mounting a militant
offensive against northern school
segregation in such communities
as New Rochelle, NJ. Y; Montclair
and Englewood, N. j.; Stamford,
Conn; New York, Chicago a n d
Philadelphia.
eve shall urge Negro parents
to apply for integrated schools at
every opportunity and shall picket,
boycott and sue in the courts, if
necessary, until the Jim Crow
school is put out of existence"
Mr.. Current asserted.
lone o bViOuS S answer to the
racially segregated northern school
which results from housing pat
terns,s is to insist that local school
boards relax the rigid zone lines
and issue permissive transfers to
those seeking to send their chill
dren to other schools.
I'VE shall call. for the election
of more Negroes to local school
boards in. order that the delibera-
tions of these bodies, which are
conducted out of earshot of most
citizens, will have the advantage

White Students
Are Investigated

Two white Students, Charlotte
Phillips, 10, and Joan Trumpower,

lege, Tougaloo Southern Christian
College in Mississippi. The sheriff
of Kinds County, j. r. Gilfoy, says
he inteds to- investigate their EN-
rollment. His reason for the inves1
tigation apparently is simply the
fact that the girls are white.
The girls both feel that the only
way to bring about good race re-
lations in for whites and Negroes
to grow to know each other better
through personal contacts.

Eichmann Testifies He Tried to Create a
 Homeland for Jews

JERUSALEM R Adolf Eich- mann testified yesterday he tried to save Europe's Jews by creating a homeland for them on the Island of Madagascar.
 The former Gestapo It. Colonel said he conceived the "Madagas- car plan" that was juggled around in high Nazi circles in 194O but never got past the paper stage.
 Eichmann identified principal portions of the plan as his own, particularly a study of climate and living conditions on the French island off the East African Coast.
 The defendant, accused of a major role in the Nazi extermina- tion of six million Jews, did not explain how or when the Mada- gascar scheme foundered. Israel has produced evidence that Hitler, Heinrich Himmler and GeStapo Chief Reinhard Heydrich decided on mass extermination "as the final solution of the Jewish prob lem" early in 1941.
 Hitler, in published accounts of his informal nightly conversations over tea, said he rather favored the Madagascar scheme for a while because conditions there would eventually wipe out the Jews.
 On the witness stand for the third day, Eichmann insisted he always approached the solution" to the Jewish problem by trying to put some ground, some soil, under their feet"
 The Madagascar idea was the first action Eichmann claimed as his own. Everything else, he said, was done under orders from some body else. He contended he was in the Berlin headquarters of the Gestapo against my Will.'

Bids for Trucking Mail To Alaska Taken to
 ID. C. for Consideration

SEATTLE R - Bids for truck ing mail to Fairbanks and An chorage daily over the Alaska Highway have been taken to Washington for consideration, a regional post office official said yesterday.
 Miller M. Bodell, distribution and traffic manager, said the bids were collected here by William Tobin, representing the Postmaster General. Tobin flew back to the national capital Wednesday.
 Bodell said he did not know how many bids were received, or when and by whom they would be opened.
 The Post Office Departments proposal to truck mail to all but Southeast Alaska instead of send ing the bulk of it twice weekly by ship drew a strong protest from the Alaska Steamship Go. and some members of the Wash ington congressional delegation.
 Alaska Steam said loss of it's mail subsidy would be crippling blow. And fears were expressed in the states congressional ranks that Washington would no longer be the terminal point for mail truck shipments.

Common Sense Needed

Bill Coppenbarger, staff writer for the
Jackson Daily News, gives some interest
ing facts from the Bureau of the Census
on a 1860 housing survey in Jackson.
The report shows a total of 42,780
housing units in the Capital City with
40,66S of them occupied. This means there
were Pip housing units vacant at the
time the survey was made.
Of the total of occupied housing units
there were 24,500 occupied by home own
ers and 16,168 by renters.
Of the occupied homes there were
2S,186 white units and 12,482 Negro.
The statistics point up many interest
ing things = but one thing should be
apparently to any intelligent person.

are too evenly divided for either race to
permit any person or group to drive a
wedge between them.
The same factors which affect the
safety, health and we'll being, the economic
welfare and security of one race apply
equally to the other.
Mississippi can go forward to greater
achievement on all fronts only as all our
citizens become better educated and their
economic status improved through better
job opportunities, thereby affording bet
ter housing, health and a higher standard
of living for everyone willing to work to
attain it.
We should not be so foolish as to per-
nit fear of ourselves Or each other to
over-rule our common sense = and that
is just exactly what many are doing right
now.

These awards are based on
the outstanding work done BY
the VFW Posts and Auxiliaries
in community service, youth
activities, VA Hospital, cancer

work. An example of their work
IS the fact that members of the

Holiday Gets The Boot From Mississippi
Tail Ways Dog

The action of the Tourist Department
of the Mississippi Agricultural and Indus
trial Board in cancelling about $4,000 in
advertising with Holiday magazine makes
just about as much sense as other things
going on in state circles these days.
The ads were cancelled, according to
reports, because of resentment over a cri-
teal editorial carried by the nations
number one travel magazine about the
Civil War Centennial. (Do We no longer
believe in a free press, the right of an
editor to an opinionD
This whole incident is but another
manifestation of a disease too commonly
shared by We M~ississippians called: 'You
play it our way, or else ..."
We would say that the action of those
responsible is pretty silly and just makes
us look a little more ridiculous as we
carry on this game of trying to force
everyone else to get in step with us.
In fact. it is cutting off our nose to
spite our face.
The advertising was placed in Holt
day, we presume, because those respon-
sible felt that magazine might attract
more people to visit our state - inasmuch
as it is unquestionably the best magazine
on the market in the travel field.
Whether Holiday approves of the
Civil War Centennial observance is be-
side the point = whether it is for it Or
against it. We don't really care.
Do we want to put a fence around
The Lexington advertiser. [volume] (Lexington, Miss.) 1904-1985, 1961-07-20

Mississippi and tell everyone in the United
States who does not believe in segrega-
ton to keep out? Don't answer please
because there are plenty of Mississippians
who would like to do just that.)
After all the fuss we looked up our
own copy of Holiday and read the Offend
ing editorial - and to save our lives we
could not find anything wrong with it!
Holiday did condemn the CONNER
cialism of the Centennial observance-and
its point was well taken. But it was gen.
eral and not directed to Mississippi, or
the South or to any one section. 1t was
speaking of the observance in general
We should get that chip off our shoulder,
the one we seem to carry all the time.
1--WE now recommend" the editor of
Holiday said, "that if any of our readers
feel inclined to attend any of these jun
ketings, they should choose those which
promise at least a decent respect for the
dead, and a proper regard for the living.
Let us, in fact, be very sure what we
are celebrating" !.
What's wrong with that?
IF the action of the Tourist Depart-
ment of the A & I Board is adopted as
official state policy we are going to be
compelled to sever relations not only with
those old meanies in the cold, cruel North,
but with most of our sister Southern
