ttion law at the Mosque. The
religious meetings at the Mos
que would still be segregated
affairs if | had not made my
direct attack on the enforce
ment Of this racial statute" In
this article he tells of selling
his house to a Negro veteran
and his wife and two small boys.
He says, "The outlawing of re-
Strictive covenants by the Sup
RENE Court has been brazenly
circumvented and, in many in
stances, absolutely nullified by
fragrant rickery and nauseating
chicanery of real estate organi-
cations and associations" He
says further, 81 had lawful and
moral right to dispose of my
home in any way l might see
fit; but, despite my right, my
wife and l were maligned, per-
secuted, and stoned by teen-age
hoodlums, operating under the
inspiration of moronic adults.
We not only had opposition
from civic leagues with a Ku
Klux Khan slant, school officials,
real estate agencies, blind and
sadistic neighbors, teen-aged
gangsters, colored stool pigeons,
prejudiced police officers, but
we also had to contend with
certain ace-prejudiced clergy
men,"
The wall of prejudice is being
attacked in many ways but a
most persuasive power u l
method is the manner chosen
by Mr.. Carwile. He along with
other Southern editors such as
P. D. East, Harry Ashmore,
Willie Morris, Ralph McGill,
Harry Golden are bringing the
issues to the level Of the people

themselves. They use all the
weapons at their command, hu-
NOR, sarcasm, irony, bitter real
ism, ridicule. AS sample from
Mr.. Carwile's book, GAS to the
question of God not making all
of us the same color, l am con-
WINGED that God loves variety.
He can take a hunk of mud and
carve out jackass and Dixie
crat. There will be some super
ficial difference, but in essence
they are the same"
Howard Carwile has facility
for turning a neat phrase and
nicely tying a thought with the
precise words. In an article en-
titled Why l Don't Go to Church
he says, 81 do not go to church
in the spring and fall, because
the weather is too beautiful for
me to be sleeping under the
soporific drug of ecclesiastical
insipidities The industrial
tycoons who bask in the Bible
on Sunday are mesmerized by
Mammon on Monday"
Mr.. Carwile points the finger
at politicians of both races
in both parties. He shows what
he believes to be the shortcom-
ings of the NAACP and certain
of its leaders. He berates the
posture of Uncle Tom and adj
jures the Negro race to cease
assuming such stance. He
clearly sees that civil liberties
are the foundation for civil
rights and that neither can be
gained independent of the other.
In the closing pages Of his
little book Howard Carwile says
big mouthful that we might
all read and do some serious
thinking about. "The real ques-
ton is the simple one of Ameri-
can children going to school to-
gether. Why should any Ameri-

practicing attorney. He speaks
as an attorney would before a
jury-simply, distinctly, some
times imprisoned, sometimes
coldly analytical of the major
problem facing his state and the
nation, indignation and social
justice.
For fifteen years Howard
Carwile has fought a fearless
crusade against the social !n-
justices and racial bogotry of
his native land. He has actively
fought the practices of bigotry
and segregation peculiar to that
area. He has fought police brut-
atty and the cruel practices of
the Virginia Welfare Depart
ment. 1t was through his public
disclosures that major reforms
were instituted in the prison
system including the abolish
ment of the whipping lash from
the backs of prisoners. For ten
years he fought the medieval
practices of the State mental hos
pitfalls. He worked tireleSSly to
force the use of Negroes on
juries. During a public religious
meeting in the Richmond city
owned Mosque, Howard Carwile
deliberately took a seat in the
section reserved for Negroes. He
was arrested because he refused
to be segregated. He won the
case in the Richmond courts and
thereby put an end to segrega-
ton in the municipal Mosque.
All of these major accom-
plishments are not mentioned in
the book. Some are mentioned
obliquely, as his arrest at the
Mosque. He refers to it in
section called, Selling a House.

A BOOK REVIEW

PEAKIN FROM BYRD
LAND, by Howard III. Car
vile. Lyle Stuart, New York,
1860. 159 PIP. $500 hard
bound.
The remarkable thing about
this book is not so much what
it has to say but that it speaks
at all.
For Howard Carwile is a
white, and pardon the adjective
but it is necessary here to give
punch to the fact, Virginian who
has had the courage to speak
out loudly and distinctly for hui
man decency to replace white
supremacy.
Sometime ago Howard Car
vile bought time on Station
w XGI, Richmond, Virginia,
from which he gives weekly
broadcast on the most contro-
verSial of all subjects in that
state-race. His book, SPEAK
ING FROM BYRDLAND, cap
lures in print some of the most
powerful and trenchant of these
commentaries. Carwile writes
in vein reminiscent of the
early pamphleteers and speaks
in in a manner recalling Will
liam Lloyd Garrison, who once
wrote, ~ am in earnest will
not equivocate-I will not ex-
cuse-I will not retreat a single
inch-and l will be heard"
In a literary age replete with
specialization and documented
case studies, it is sometimes re-
freshing to pick up a book that
speaks in terms of the layman
without making the reader feel
like an imbecile or kibitzer.

President Kennedy is to be
spared for the present a pub
lie poSt-mortem on Cuba.
Influential Senators and edi-
torial opinion are paving the
way for him to withdraw
from his exposed Laos posi-
ton to the safer and higher
ground of the United Nations.
The inquiry he cannot
postpone or evade is the in
quiry into his own mind and
heart when he made his de-
cision to approve the Inflated
Cuban refugee landings.
Washington is full Of rumors
about which advisers were
for or against. Able reporters
are engaged full time on blow
by blow accounts Of the
weeks and months preceding
the disastrous events Of April.
The record is growing.
How the President came to
make his faulty Cuban judg-
ment cannot long be secret.

DAVID LAWRENCE
; Full Time Advisers for President

Senate. Cabinet government
has worked successfully in
Britain and in other English
speaking democracies. Al
though Mr.. Kennedy's cabi-
net got at the start a lot Of
publicity as an able body Of
men, it turns outh that this
same group is rarely con-
suited on the broad aspects
Of national and international
policy and that they have be-
come mere heads of their own
departments.
What is needed here Is 9
cabinet council that gives full
time to counseljing the PreSi-
dent. The departments can
be run by general managers,
and the cabinet council could
meet every day and give the
President advice. II the pres
ent cabinet members aren't
qualified to be presidential
advisers on broad policy, there
are plenty Of able men in
America who could serve in
that capacity. But it is court
ing disaster to assume that
academicians, who have little
experience in the operations
of Government, can shunt the
Secretary of State aside OF
that decisions can be made
with one or two cabinet Of
ficerS without the chance for
a larger group Of mature men
to sit down and work out a
policy based on principles of
enduring strength.
There's much that is wrong
in the current operations Of
the executive system. The
so-called Cuban fiasco is but
the beginning of a series of
failures unless President Ken
nedy gets rid Of most of the
"kibitzers" who are running
around in circles in the new
administration and sets UP al
his side q cabinet council of
men of stature to give full
time every day to the task of
helping him make national
and international policies. He
can't do 1t all himself.

We are, in a very real
sense, engaged in q third
world war. 1t may or may
not come to full-scale shoot

cooperation will be helpful.
What the President is doing

then it may be necessary to

Of the President. It is in no
sense an apology for him to
say that he acted out Of
character in the Cuban ven
ture, at least out Of his
character as it appeared to
the many reporters who spent
months in close contact with
him during his primary. con-
vention and election battles.
Mr.. Kennedy knows all the
answers the Senators and re-
porters are seeking today.
He knows who said what to
him, who foresaw the dam
aging results Of failure and
who insisted much could be
accomplished.
The President has never
seemed to be impulsive. He Is
in many ways o golden boy
to whom the good things
have come easily, but he has
shown patience and a willing
ness to take time to achieve
his aims. He has been cool
and diSpaSsionate, almost in
credibly Unconditional, in very
emotional matters.
What, then, tipped the bal
ance or who tipped 1t and
what in Mr.. Kennedy re-
sponded? Only he can an

the very first Importance as
he marches down the road Of

The Presidents Bid to the Press

Prince Edward County is q
case in point.
1t is imperative that all
Americans realize that, no
matter how they feel about
the fact Of Negro citizenship
and Of the constitutional
guarantees, it is not possible
for their Government to re-
main indifferent to situa-
tions in which discrimination
is in effect.
What has happened in the
Prince Edward County case
is merely an attempt, within
the processes Of law, to de-
termine whether the depriva-
ton of 1,700 children Of

funds are being spent to
maintain it elsewhere and to
pay for private schooling.
is constitutional. Surely it is
plain to all that this is an
orderly process lacking any

The Republicans have come
through magnificently in the
first grave test of their ca
pacity to act with RESPONSE
bility as a minority party.
Every leader of every wing
of the G. o. P. has seen his
duty and done it-from Nell
son Rockefeller on the left
wing through Dwight Eisen-
hover and Richard Nixon at
the party center and on to
Senators Styles Bridges and
Barry Goldwater on the right
wing.
Every one of them has re-
fused the cheap temptation
to leap upon President Ken
nedy and his luckless staff
which is to say upon the Unit
ed States itself-for the fail
ure Of the anti-Castro inva-
sion Of Cuba. Every one of
them has recognized that it
is not simply Mr.. Kennedy
who has suffered a setback;
that it is really the United
States.
Every one of them-Mr.
Eisenhower most poignantly
from his own still-fresh
memories of the burden of
the White House-has rec
ognized that whatever party's
President is in power in a
time Of crisis should be free
from sterile second-guessing,
not merely in ordinary fair
ness but also under the
highest demands of national
interest. For no President
can do his best work If, as
the already sufficiently har-
ried representative of all of
us, he must be continually
protecting himself against
those of us who bear none of
his responsibilities but are
ready at the instant of any
failure to bite at him.
Every one Of these Re-
