Tried to stop Rumors

In defense of Green and Ma
gruder, it may be said they
acted as they did to quell
spreading reports that the
United States aided or abetted
the coup.
They also felt that their ac-
ton was in accord with the
American position taken in the
past in support of constitu-
tional government and demo-
cratic practice.
American opposition was not
based on motives behind the
coup but rather on the fact that
it was an Illegal seizure of
power by the military.
Successful once, it could hap
pen again, perhaps under lead
edship of a Communist-backed
group so that no government
could feel secure.
However, the main effect so
far has been confusion.

Foreign News Comment

The United States finds itself
in an embarrassing position in
Korea.
1t has cut itself off from
formal contact with the mill
tary junta which on Tuesday
seized control of the Korean
government, and demanded
that power be restored to the
freely elected and constitu-
tionally established govern

Yet as Korean army units
either announced their neu-
trality or their support of the
coup in defiance of the United
States, the chances of Chang's

return grow more remote by
the hour.
Initial indications are that the
United States not only had
backed a loser but also a leader
who had lost popularity and
the confidence of the majority
of Koreans.
From the Korean capital of
Seoul come reports of mount
ing resentment against the
U. S. position.
These reports say the feeling
is that U. S. Charge d'Affaires

COP. & Dixiecrots
Plan To Oppose
Weaver For Cabinet

washing lOH NA4NEJ - Inc SlS-
vation of Housing Administrator
Robert c. Weaver to cabinet sta
tus as head of a proposed depart
ment of urban affairs is being Bit
terly opposed here by two groups
southern Democrats and Repub-
licans-who claim they are not
acting in concert.
The southern Democrats are op-
posing the proposal of President
Kennedy because Weaver who is
most likely to head up the depart
ment is a security risk"
The Republicans too, disclaim
that they are impelled by racial
considerations, declaring it is de-
vice to extend the authority of the
federal government.
However both groups, frequent
ly in the past, have combined
forces to defeat civil rights legis-
lation. 1t has been noted that their
pointed disavowals of racial mo-
tives makes their opposition sus-
pect.
Sen. John L. Mcclellan, an avow-
ed segregationist, still singing
over the rejection of Sen. William
F'ulbright as secretary of the state
because of his racial views, said:
Southern Democrats might go
along with the proposal if we can
get assurance that Weaver will
not be named to the post"
That Old Communist" Alibi
Denying that race prejudice is a
factor as he did when he opposed
Weaver's confirmation as housing
boss, Mcclellan said his associa-
ton with Communist front organ
izations hardly recommends him
for a cabinet position"
I'm not committing myself def
initely" he said, but think we
ought to go slow on this sort of
thing"
Another southern Senator said
II don't think a man who headed
an extremist organization (the
NAACP) could fairly administer
affairs as a member of the Presi-
dents cabinet"
Republican opposition to the
idea of a department of urban
affairs is based on a fear that the
agency would give the Democrats
an overpowering stronghold on the
big cities which were responsible
for putting Kennedy in the White
House.
They also view the move as a
possible attempt on the part of the
federal government to extend its
powers into an area now under
local authority.
"GOP Wants Big City Vote"
Last November the IL largest
Northern cities gave Kennedy 65
per cent of their vote. In despera-
ton the Republicans have named
a special task force to figure out
ways of cracking this "big-city
vote" The task force faces for
midable obstacles.
Elevating Weaver to cabinet
rank and placing him in charge Of
this department, Republicans be-
lieve, would not only win Democra-
tic support from Negroes general
ly but, more important politically,
would strengthen the Democratic
hold on Negroes in the big cities.
This could be devastating for the
Republicans.
Since 1880 the number Of Ne
groes in the IL largest Northern
! cities has more than tripled to
where they now account for 10 per
cent Of the population Of these
cities.
Some Republicans hope to win
over Negro supporters by a stiff
civil-1ghts bill

AMT NO JUSTICE IN TUPELo'

Tupelo, Miss. (ANP) - Sammy
Lee Justice was greatly perturbed
here last week when he appeared
before Judge C. B. Hutchison in
City Court, to answer a charge
of public drunkenness. Justice was
disturbed because he needed SIS,
to pay his court fine, but nobody
came across with the money.
So, on behalf Of Justice, Judge
Hutchison gave him a jail sent
