Congratulations to the
twelve state senators who re-
fused to be led like sheep in
the ridiculous resolution
adopted last week by the
Senate against the Kennedy
Klan."
The twelve men summoned
enough courage to vote
against the resolution, say
ing it appeared unnecessary"
and might be "misinterpret-
ed.
Is it too much to hope for
that others in the dist:n-
guished body of our State
Senate may join the twelve
aforementioned men in using
their heads ever once in 9
while instead of their emo
tons in various matters that
come before the body?
1t is amazing to us that the
majority of our Legislature
is perfectly capable of run

Of vital Importance to the
future of Mississippi is the
meeting in Dallas of the
Southern Association of Col
leges and Secondary Schools.
The SACSS is the group
which will decide whether or
not to withdraw accreditatlon
from our state colleges as a
result of Governor Ross Bar
nett's political interference in
the operation of the Univer-
sity of Mississippi in the
James Meredith case.
The state Board of Institu-
tions of Higher Learning
shares with Governor Barnett
the responsibility for this po-
litical interference because it
was this board which delegat-
ed the power of registrar to
the Governor in the Meredith
case.
The action of the state
board at the time was under
standable, if not wise. Cover
nor Barnett had repeatedly
threatened to close the Uni
versity rather than permit a
Negro to enter. Members OF
the board believed him
thoroughly capable of such
action. They were land are)
men dedicated to the highest
and best interest of Mississip-
pi and were aware of the i'm
portance of keeping the Uni
versity open, as the Governor
and his advisors apparently
were not. Nor had public
opinion been prepared for
the impasse that developed.
We feel the Board did the
best it could in an impossible
situation.
It is to be expected that
state colleges and universities
(all eight of them) will be
placed on probation by the
SACSS for a time - and this
will be for their own protec-
ton from tho politicians as
much as ANYTHING else. And
they need this protection =
in edition 70 Governor Bar
nett's written promise not to
interfere again.
If the entire Meredith case
had been left where it be-
longed, in the courts and
then with the University gu
thorities and the S+ote Col
lege Board, there woul1 new
er have been the mob and
riots at the University = and
Meredith would have been a
student there no more or
less than he is today.
But the politicians had to
get in the act.

BY Any Other Name

Maryland public health officials
have announced their intention of CIV
ing pleaSanter names to such unpleasant
things as sewage and river pollution.
Robert M. Brown, chief of the State
Bureau Of Environmental Hygiene, told
about the new Technology at meeting
OF the Maryland Municipal League. For
example, sewage" hereafter will be re-
ferred to as spent water" and "pollu-
ton control" as water quality control"
because they sound more positive"
he explained.
However, spent water" hardly
does justice to what emptieS into the
Potomac River from the downtown
combined storm and sewage sewers
every time there is heavy rain here
aboutS. Nor does water quality control"
quite describe what is needed to clean
up our polluted river in the tidal area
below Rock Creek. No matter what you
call it, our brand of sewage is still sew
age, and let's not kid ourselves.

TWA Agreement

Assuming its ratification by the
union members, the agreement reached
by Trans World AirlineS and the flight
engineers has the virtue of lifting one
strike threat. There are murky areas
In this agreement, however, and the
reaction to it by flight engineers at Pan
American and Eastern Air Lines raises
doubt that it will serve as the basis for
an induStry-wide settlement.
This certainly is in no sense a re-
Election on the efforts by the President,
Secretary Goldberg, Nathan FeinSinger
and others to persuade the flight engi-
neerS to accept some reasonable settle
ment of the issues growing out of the
need to reduce crews on jet planes from
four to three men.
The principal and most difficult
issues have been of a juriSdictional
character. One concerns the ultimate
fate of the flight engineers union;
whether it should be merged with the
larger Air Line Pilots Association. The
TWA agreement does not settle this
issue. Instead, it postponeS it for at
least two years and sets up committee
to study" it in the meantime But there
is no assurance that it will not lead to
another -precipitating dispute
The second question was whether
the third man in the cockpit should be
required to have license as an aircraft
poWerplant mechanic-in other words
a flight engineers license. The engi-
neerS think possession of this license
helps maintain their separate craft
identity and thus their separate union.
In return for very substantial con-
cessionS from the airline, the TWA
engineers yielded on this point But the
Pan American and Eastern engineers
say they will not go along, and if they
stand pat on this refusal the strike
threat against the latter two airlines
will remain very much alive.
Over the past decade these jurisdic-
tional disputes have figured in some 10
strikes in the industry. There is
absolutely nothing that management
can do about it, and it is outrageous
that the airlines should be subjected to
constant strike threat because of a
fight between two unions
1t will be well, of course, to wait and
see what happens at Pan American and
Eastern, as well as in the vote by the
TWA engineers. But if either or both
OF the juriSdictional issues should bring
about another strike or strike threat,
Congress should step into the picture
with an amendment of the Railway
Labor Act requiring compulsory arbi-
tration of all jurisdictional questions.

eral crime to Organize" any group ad
vocating the forcible overthrow of the
United States Government. The Su-
preme Court, in a much-criticized de-
ciSion, construed this language as apply
ing only to the initial organizing of the
party. AS result, a number of Cali
fornia Reds who had been convicted
of forming party units were set free.
To meet this development, the De-
partment of Justice asked Congress to
make it clear that organizing" meant
any recruitment and formation of new
units of the party. The Senate Judiciary
Committee, in indorSing the proposed
amendment, called it common sense"
and Congress agreed. The Smith Act
now can be enforced as the legislators
always intended, namely, against any
organizer of such subversive groups as
the Communist Party and its subsequent
offshootS.
