a silver saddle to her Palomino

took annually more than 80

Leo. who died September IL,
at 81. after an eight-year bout
with cancer, was an incorrigible
parader. His old friend. Irwin
s. Cobb, once quipped:
IF an Eskimo funeral passed
Leo's house, he'd rush out to
lead it."
Mr.. Carrillo's comment was,
There's no thrill like riding
through a sea of 2 million smil-
ing faces. 1t makes you feel
you're bringing happiness to
people,"
Daughter Agrees
His daughter is made of the

"bribe US by offering a sub

issue from our demands" He

of Lying in his teeth" and said
he also would welcome a con-
gressional investigation.
The "runaway-flag" issue is
a main obstacle in the path of
a settlement. 1t involves Amer
ican-owned ships which sail
under foreign flags.
The unions want the right
to organize the crews on these
ships. They contend that
American seamen are being de-
prived of jobs by the practice
of hiring foreign crews on the
vessels.
Wage scales on such ships
are lower than on American

The strain is beginning to tell. Rea-
sonable peole are falling prey to the hys-
terra. An atmosphere of progress and
optism has given way to an atmosphere
that has ripened Mississippi to make it
easy prey for every brand of political
quack that comes down the pike.
And so it goes.
1t might be said that vain false
patriatism is the last refuge of scoundrels.
In the name OF Mississippi and South
ern patriotism, our fifth column is metho-
Ideally trampling on every individual right
we hold dear as citizens in a free society.
Perhaps what we are being exposed
TO is the anatomy of crisis. Perhaps what
we are seeing are the natural stresses
and strains that come to a people who
are facing an impending crisis.
But, let us not forget that the most
effective weapon we have against the
destruction of our free system of govern
ment is to make our own system work.
Communism, like many other isms
that have afflicted the world, is, a fake.
Forms of democratic government which
dignity the individual, appeal to the
human spirit the world over.
But our failure is to make our sys-
ITEM a potent, virile, living form of govern
ment. That is our failure in Mississippi
today. Our destestable fifth column, like
an army of unobserved termites, is gnaw-
ing away at the dignity of the Individual,
at the rights and freedoms of every man.
Our network of state paid spies and
informers, the unholy alliance between
the Citizens Council and state govern
ment. the McCarthy-like attacks on good
citizens all these things attest to the
times.
We hope and trust that embattled
democracy can survive the assault.

Assault On Democracy In Mississippi

The fruits of Democracy as we under
stand them in this country are under
attack in Mississippi today just as sure
ly as the sun will rise in the morning.
They are under attack from men who
have a cynical disregard for principle but
who have a cunning familiarity with eff
fective method.
In Jackson, the present administra-
ton has opened the public treasury to
the White Citizens Council.
Elsewhere in the state, economic
pressure has been turned on an editor
who failed to see the Citizen COun-
ellis point of view.
1t is common knowledge that the
State Sovereignty Commission, faced
with the task Of justifying itself, has paid
informers and spies at work, collecting
information for files on Mississippi mod
crates and other deviates, from the adj
m~inistration line.
