Kite FLYING Hazards

ABOUT this time every year young
IA sters of various ages are interested
in the flying of kites.
Some Of them. with gray hair and
many years of life behind them, will
enjoy their kite-flying by proxy, but
boys and girls will score them one bet
ter, putting up their kites in the spring
breezes.
1t is we'll to warn the youngsters to
stay away from electric power lines and
highways. Do not use wire for kite
string or a cord with tinsel or wire in
it. BE sure the cord isn't wet. If your
kite breaks loose and the cord fall across
electric wires, leave it alone.
OF course. we know that very few,
every spring, will read this editorial.
However. the retired order of ancient
kite-fliers, remembering the days Of
their youth might be reminded to eau
ton their youngsters. A few words Of
warning sometimes saves the life of a
boy or girl.

Power of Pop
Great Influence

Editor, Farmville Herald.
Is Federal Aid and patronage
so important to our Southern
Senators and congressman that
they will suffer any indignity or
dictation rather than forfeit it.?
In the first ninety days of the
new Congress. the craven atti-
tudeS of many Southern legis-
latorS has demonstrated clearly
that they are under compulsion
to conform or suffer penalties to
which no representative of a
sovereign people should be SUBJ
lected. Many were thus brought
to capitulation even during the
Kennedy campaign.
The most insulting mancuvcr.
however, is represented in tho
shifting Of the Civil War Ccntcn-
NAL from a segregated Southern
city to nearby integratcd mill
tary base because Negroes
holds a place on the New Jersey
delegation.
Has the spirit Of the South 50
fallen that this indignlty can be
accomplished. a | m o t without
protest. by South-hating North
erners who would represent their
people better by holding a sep
arate victory celebration in
Harlem or Chicago's South Side?
And what of the Centennial
chairman, Bill Tuck? Doesn't he

FTP RR Conductor
Sold Fresh Fish

Editor of Herald:
I have been interested in the
various articles recently appear
ing in the Herald about the
Farmville and Powhatan RR.
We lived near Ballsville when
both the RR. and I were quite
young. l remember Mr.. Cheat
ham, the engineer, quite distinct
ly. He wore the hirSute adorn-
ment of the traditional Kentucky
colonel, that is heavy mustache,
goatee and chin whiskers.
The thing that sticks out in my
memory about the whole railroad
is Mr.. Cheatham selling fish,
during the shad season he would
have box (iCed, 1 suppose, on
the engine and on the return
from Bermuda Hundred while
the train crew were handling
freight, he would dispense shad
to the people Of the villages. That
was about the only time anyone
along the line had fresh fish, be-
cause there was no fishing in
that section.
The AppomattoX River was
about or 8 miles from Balls
vile and very seldom anyone
went there to fish, when they did
they would be lucky to catch one
or two little catfish.
The R.R. followed the ridge be-
tween the Appomattox River and
all of the streams to the west, so
that there was not bridge be-
tween the Appomattox River and
Flat Rock Greek in Chesterfield
Co., and very few culverts, so
closely did it follow the water
shed.

PoWhatan R.R. later the Tide
water and Western. l was out of
the state at the time of its de-
mise.
Yours nostalgically,
w. Compton Diggs
P.S. Since writing the above,
yesterdays issue of the Herald
arrived and 1 really enjoyed the
interview with Maynard French.
AS a boy I knew Maynard very
well, his younger brother Hugh
and l were pals and l have spent
many nights in the French home
at Sunny Side.
Maynard knows the history of
the Marrow Gauge" road in all
of its phases because he was a
teenage boy when it started, has
lived always at Sunny Side and
| the R.R. has come and gone but
Maynard is still around, / am
happy to say.
However, must call his tale
about the race with the train soon
after the road was completed in
his Model T." When the road
was completed and for a long
time afterward l doubt if there
was a horseless buggy of any
make in the entire state of Viz
ginia.

IRON Bombay comes strange and
interesting tale about white tigers.
So far as is known, there are only eight
in the world. The Maharaja of Rewa
owns seven. In moment of affection
for the children of the West. he sold the
other to the Washington ZOO.
White tigers are extremely rare The
maharaja came across white tiger, by
accident while hunting some years ago.
After capturing it, he spent much time
and an estimated S25O,0OO to find a
white tigress.
Now he keeps them in his palace in
special, aforementioned ZOO, we'll with
in the marble-floored residence And
he is quite positive about his decision not
to sell another of the rare, white ami
mails.
Fantastic offers are said to have been
made to the maharaja, but he has turn
cd them down. He sold the Washington
ZOO a female for the sum of $4,000
(Which he described as nominaD be-
cause he wanted to make a gesture to
the children of the West, but he would
not sell the zoo male also. because he
feels that Rewa should be the only place
on earth Boosting of white tigers.
A representative Of the Washington
ZOO recently arrived in India to ne
gotiate the purchase of a white male
tiger. The female, in Washington,
Mohini, is said to pine for white male
tiger. And maybe she will pine il vain,

What Happened In Court?

was argued. The judge did not hear
the case on its merits. He simply ruled
that he would hear what the NAACP
has to say.
when will the case be heard on its
merits" Judge Lewis will set this hear
ing, later.
After consideration of the motions to
be filed on May 8, Judge Lewis could
dismiss the case entirely, or he could
remand the case to the State courts,
if he determines state constitutional
issues are raised. or to a three Judge
federal court if federal constitutional
issues are raised Or, he could retain
jurisdiction and set a time for argu-
ments.
In the meantime there is no good
reason that every child in Prince Ed
ward county should not have the OPP
portunity Of an education in private
schools. Prince Edward School Founda-
ton is completing plans for operation
of its schools for the the coming ses-
sion. Under present Virginia laws a
similar system could be established now
while teachers are available and supply
the needs of those children not now in
school. We believe these private schools
would not prejudice the case Of the
NAACP before the courts, and would
not further penalize the children Of
Prince Edward not now in school, The
decision is squarely one for their parents
to make.

circumstances but the people of
this nation on its side. It has
the Constitution and the Coalition
in Congress that reflects the
nations majority. 1t can lose. a
thousand battles in the courts
and still have more to fight, still
have ways and means of prevent
ing massive public school inte-
grafton and mixing of the races.
All over the country meanwhile
there is a so-called conservative
movement which refuses to con-
fuse the American revolution of
1776. with the French revolution
of 1888, rejects the libertarian
and equalitarian sentimentalities.
proclaims the true brotherhood of
man in which differences are
recognized, honored and employ
ed and the Image of God is
served.
The second battle of Atlanta
has already been lost.
Look should be told.
1t was lost months ago when
the allure of distant applause, the
froWn of distant authority, the
threat Of distant economic pun
ishment, the moral blindness of
those who came from a distance
in morality's name, the distant
| pieties of those who pretend dis
elimination and separation are
! the same, and the folly of luna
tics of the far right-all COM
| bined to leave the people of At
| lanta leaderless.
There will be a third battle of
Atlanta one day to purge it of its
politicians, publicists. professors,
preachers, and professionals. And
after that a fourth and fifth, and
more.
1t is possible to imagine battles
one day in which the South's col
ored and white together will op-
pose the professionals.
My nearly always right and alb
solutely always entertaining col
league, Inez Robb, goes all wrong
when she Identifies what she
calls the white" Citizens Coun-
ellis with what she calls "self-ap-
pointed super-men, such as
those of McCarthyism, the Khan
and the John Birch Society. (The
name is Citizens Councils, not
White Citizens.) Except for a Ku
Klux crowd which took initial
possession in North Alabama,
the Citizens Councils exist in
very antithesis to the Khan. In
many parts Of the South they are
composed of citizens as soberly
patriotic as Kiwanians, Rotari-
ans, and such. Indeed the mem
bership is almost identical in
places like Jackson, Mississippi;
Selma, Alabama, etc.
Hopping in eagernesS to please
Look Magazines readers Mayor
Hartsfield. of Atlanta, tells them
we're going to ride herd on
these damned racists when
they come to this town they know
they're going to get their heads
knocked together"
And then, in fine fancy flowing,
the mayor says his police have
been ordered to crack down on
segregationist "rabble rousers
Robert E. Lee wouldn't even spit

AS a rouser of rabble-rousers
Mayor Hartsfield has no peer,
