GREAT jubiliaton came with the
launching of an American astronaut
into space. Its success is milestone in
scientific exploration of the strato-
sphere, even though the flight took him
only to an altitude of lis miles, and
distance of 302 miles in Is minutes, as
compared with the claimed in orbit
flight of Russian astronaut With this
much accomplished future scientific
flights can be expected
Every effort was made to protect the
daring astronaut, and valuable studies
are being made of the flight, more part
icularly of the man. His physical and
psychological conditions following the
experience are being checked complete
ly. The fact that the United States
places conservation of life first in its
stratosphere experiments indicates the
high value placed upon human life in
this nation. Also facts recorded of any
changes in this astronaut's condition is
a scientific achievement in future safe
ty.
1t seems to us that the United States
might find more profit in boosting its
own achievements, than making odd
comparisons with others. particularly
Russia. Efforts Of the United States re-
search are publicized, while Russia's
claims leave some doubt. It is time to
stop worrying about the claims of Rus
STA and take the offensive ourselves. If
we find it necessary to spread our in
fluence and dollars throughout the
world, we should strike hard bargain
and get some returns for our invest
ments.
Communist technique follows a gen
eral pattern. Germany is divided into
two nations: Korea. likewise In Laos,
cease fire talks have been going on for
several weeks while Communist sup
piled and trained troops have been
taking half of that nation China is also
divided into two parts. France is fight

Old Cliches'

1882, when Craddock- Terry Shoe Com
pany was established here, despite
valiant local efforts. We wonder if
public schools kept industry out of
Farmville from 1892 to 1859.
This cliche' is a definite attempt to
coerce the business people of the COM
munity. 1t should be understood by
now that the people of Prince Edward
will not sell principles, which underlie
our Republic.
(4) Another cliche' is repeated often
that schools have been closed against
the Negro children. Those who use
this statement never trouble to state
that every reasonable effort has been
made to assist the Negro parents in pro-
viding education for their children un-
der state and local laws, such as have
been used by the parents of white child
rem. There has been no racial discrimina-
ton in Prince Edwards school contro-
versy The facts are that the Negro par
ents have not taken advantage of the OPP
portunities available.
60 During the coming week, no
doubt, national media, newspapers,
magazines and television - will feature
Prince Edward on the seventh anniver-
sary of the Black Monday decision,
May II, 1854. We base our prediction
on the number of reporters and news
casters who have been in Prince Edward
County recently And, of course,
NAACP will hold state convention
here on May 20.
We cite these facts to prepare citizens
of this area for expected propaganda
events. May we be calm, considerable
and courteous There have been no ra-
cial incidents here and certainly there
need not be, so long as the people UNI
derstand Prince Edward County holds
high ground based on fundamental
principles, and these matters will be
adjudicated in courts of law. Let no
propaganda, tensions, or emotions take
our people, both white and Negro, from
the background they now occupy.

NEVER WAS VIRGINIA more
Virginian than in Prince Edward
County now, never finer in ex-
ample of Virginia's history-long
love of principle and philosophy
and in practice OF what it loves.
ATTORNEY GENERAL ROB-
ERT KENNEDY, at the Univer-
sity of Georgia last week, vowing
to enforce the desegregation laws
COR rulings. spoke nobly of the
challenge" to the South for law
abiding. You would think he was
talking of such simple law-abiding
as, say, obeying prohibition laws
or laws against trespass and as
sault which certain labor picket
lines and Negro sit-ins involve.
Nothing in what he said or in
his seeming conception of the
situation showed least aWareness
of the fact that the South is hav-
ing a revolution attempted to be
forced on it in what it sincerely
believes is violation of the Con-
Stitution, of the compact with
which the Constitution was put
together, and of the dictates of
common sense.
He had no smallest tear for the
agony of an entire quadrant of
America.
AS for defying the law, it is
the Kennedy brothers with their
executive duumvirage. overriding
the Congress, the courts and the
sovereign states, who defy the
great principles of the law even
as they employ the letter.
HERE'S A QUEER TWIST.
Noting that most Citizens Coun-
ellis throughout the South object
to being called white" Citizens
Councils. an Albanian asks: How
many of them have any colored
members and how would one go
about joining? Who is kidding
whom?"
There's no kidding. Naturally
there are no colored people in
Citizens Councils. But neither is
there hostility to colored people.
The Councils were organized in
offset, not supplement, to the
Khan and other vigilante groups.
Only in North Alabama did the
"other groups" assume the name
and control for a time, giving
the movement there a bad name

EVEN though the position of Prince
~ Edward County in respect to opera
ton of integrated public schools is be-
ing heard in the federal court in Rich
mond, propaganda methods attempt to
exert pressures upon the people of this
county. Capable counsel for the litigants
are protecting the rights Of the citizens
of this State and county. 1t seems to us
that it is proper to let this case rest
in the courts to be decided in an orderly,
legal, Unconditional way as is the inner
ent right under our Republican form of
government. Instead, almost every me-
dia and method are being used to re-
surrect the old cliches' and to stir emo
tional sympathy for the alleged 100
Negro children not now in schools.
Propaganda is being spread in many
ways:
Cd Attorney General Robert Ken
nedy sounds off in Georgia on the
Prince Edward case In all propriety,
counsel for litigants do not take their
cases to the welkin to make publicity
and propaganda We believe that is
enough to be said.
(2) Five Prince Edward youngsters,
guests in Washington, d. c. April 90
go were interviewed by the press with
propaganda questions, and then were
taken by the Minister of Education of
the Chevy Chase Methodist Church for
a weekend workshop at camp Let's
with members of the bi-racial Junior
Council on Human Relations, and the
Methodist Youth Fellowship. The work
shop sent an open letter to Mr.. Robert
Kennedy, attorney general of the United
States urging that ''all possible legal
and moral action be taken to restore
public schools in Prince Edward County
for all Students
CD The NAACP, a plaintiff in the
law case, resurrects the old cliche, in
ferring that industry has not come to
Farmville because integrated public
schools are not being operated. They
fail to dig into the facts that no outside
industry has come to Farmville since

Take The Offensive

ing to maintain its unity. South Wet
Nam is the next move and Russia has
perfect jumping off place in Com
munist-held Laos. For the first time,
Canada has been bit touchy recently.
Even the Northern United States seek
to impose their will upon Southern
United States. Knowing the technique
of Communism, might we put up our
guard a bit, too?
There is time and place for most de-
cisions, and we do not appear to making
any Roadway by attending cease-fire
conferences while Communists divide
other nations into two parts. The amaz-
ing thing to us is that Russia has not
lost fighting man. Those engaged in
civil strife destroy each other and Com
munists gain control of the govern
ments Let's we take the offensive again.

Double Check

Now that President Kennedy
has gotten in the Byrd nest and
Mr.. j. Barrye Wall on TV, things
should be getting back to normal
if we can remember what that
was.
The West Big three agree on
Laos talks. If we can ever get
any one else to agree, we got it
made.
Politics are still politics in the
USA and if'n there is anything
that the Democrats haven't been
charged with by the COP they
will be able to write it on a post
card and mail it in on the last
day. Understanding is the key to
unity but We don't even have that
to home SO how can we ever eX-
pect it to fashionable in land or
tongue Some sweet day we may
wake up to find we spent all our
money trying to Guido some other
fool up in space only to find we
have nothing but space. Why
crowd it, we got to breathe amt
we?
Mr. N1Yn1 Mhifp rnf accry,,ir,u
any role. spoke out and his is the
text of the last two Administra-
tons He along with others of his
belief will back the President
to the hilt' and that's where
they'd like to see the whole out
fit.
The Russians seek to beIittle
our great adventure with man In

Shepard belittled theirs by sue
cess that was on TV around the
World. Any time you can fire a
shot and tune in Brinkley and

No Digging Now, For Me

In boyhood days | thought it fun
To rise at dawn Of day
And dig for worms and fishing 90
When spring time came my way.
The robins then, who lowered near,
Knew what | was about;
Since hopping near, they seemed to beg
For me to toss one out.
Yes, it was fun ! thought back then,
But Time has changed my terms;
No pleasure now, it gives to me
To dig in earth for worms.
On ponds bank I'd swing my legs
All doy in blazing sun;
A few small fish strung on string,
Was then my dream of fun.
Digging worms wos pleasure then,
But now this is not SO;
When now ! dig, the earth seems hard,
And makes me puff and blow
I've lost the knook Of cIutohing things
That wriggIe, twists and squrms?
So not again will get up
At dawn to dig for worms.
When last dug, my hands got sore
When fishing worms ! sought;
The worms seemed scarce, no robins came.
1t wasn't fun. thought
A little boy who was with me,
Looked up at me and sold,
"When it's such fun to early rise,
Why do you stay in bed2"
! could only answer him this;
my lad, old oee confirms
The dreadful fact, there comes time,
It's work, to dig for worms.
When you grow old, the time may come
You too, will change funs terms;
And you'll decide its too much work
To dig for fishing worms

Concentration of Power

ITO pile Ossa on Pelion and roll
leaf-crowned
Olympus on Ossa ;"
us THERE ALREADY an I'm
common concentration of eXecu-
tive power in our American gov
eminent even though Mr.. Ken
nedy seems determined to in
crease it? Editor Morley CASH
dy of The philadelphia Eve
ming Bulletin seems to think SO.
He sees in France new hope
that the Fifth Republic may
have at last designed work
ing government which permits
strength in hours of emergency
as Rome did in its days of repub-
hcan greatness, as America does
in its uncommon concentration of
executive power.
The concentration Mr.. Kennedy
is bringing about, however, is di-
rected not at an hour of emer-
gency but at implementation of
a So called New From lie r
economic and social program
about which our people are half
hearted, to say the least. It diff
fers, too, in that it is a concen-
tration of the left and therefore
directed at more and more gov
eminent. De Gaulle's is rightist
and, for binary purposes,
against governmentalism.
PEOPLE WHO SPEAK of
Black. Douglas and Brennan as
the "individualists' on the SUI
preme Court need to have their
shots called. They mean indi-
vidualists in the sense of concern
with the civil rights of indi-
viduals and of giving much of
the Courts time to individual
rights cases rather than large
questions of constitutional law.
But they are at the other pole
from individualism in the sense
in which we who today call our
selves conservatives use the
word.
We mean the individual pro-
tected against his government,
no: by his government.
We mean the individuals right
to be let alone by the govern
ment.
We mean the limited and de-
centralized government without
which the individual, no matter
how his right against other indi-
viduals may be protected. is
overrun by his government.
Some call this States Rights
but they mean the rights not only
of states but of individuals
rights against too much govern
ment too far from the governed.
The greatest of any civil rights
is the right to be let alone by
the government.
