/ This loan record is a remarkable
tribute to the financial integrity of
rural families and their ability to
manage their financial affairs, said
Lackman. This housing program pro-
vides benefits throughout the entire
rural-based small town economy. Con-
tractors, small businessmen supply
ing contractors, and building trades
workers all benefit through increased
business. This stepped up activity in
turn stimulated the entire rural econ
omy.
The repayment record on rural
housing loan borrowers also is a trib-
ute to the judgment of the county
committeeman of the Farmers Home
Administration who assist in evaluat-
ing soundness of the loans.
He also stated there have been ap-
proximately 500 more rural housing
loans made this year than for the
same period last year. Qualified non
farm families in rural areas and
towns have benefited by these rural
housing loans as we'll as farmers and
this was made. possible through legis-
lation that was passed by Congress
last year.
Information and applications for
rural housing loans can be obtained

Senator Eastland's
"McC arthyism''

WASHINGTON, d. C.-The Su.
preme Court of the United States
has survived savage attacks going
back to the days of the Founding
Fathers. There is no reason to believe
the courts will now expire because of
Sen. James o. Eastland's newest as
sault. T. es.f.t. tr
Even in his powerful position as
chairman of the Senate Judiciary
Committee, Sen. Eastland is not
likely to scare the nine justices.
They are worldly enough to know
that his "box score" on how each
votes on civil liberties and civil
rights is designed strictly for the
folks back home.
Sen. Eastland is actually a rather
relaxed man. 1t is not easy to shock
him, nor does he work himself into
frenzy each time "Dixie" is played.
But he has learned that little dema-
goguery will go long, long way. 1t
has already brought him far.
In Washington it is suggested that
Sen. Eastland is the white mans
burden. But perhaps this gives more
weight to his utterancess than they
merit.
There are many recalling the era
of the late Sen. Joe Mccarthy, who
argue that he was a creation" of
the press. If we had not paid so much
to his wild original charges,
they contend, Mccarthy would never
have achieved any eninence at all.
The same point has been made
about Sen, Eastland. Those who favor
a hush-hush policy fear that he will
thrive on publicity. l am inclined to
disagree. The Court is subject of

WATCH ON THE POTOMAC
By ROBERT G. SPIvACK. Washington. D. C.

| Nor would the tissue of the high
court disappear if Sen. Eastland were
to remain silent.
| There is a need for serious evalu-
alton of the role being played by
the Court because, among other
reasons, men like the Senator. the
Birchites and others are tearing
down respect for law which can
eventually lead to disorder.
Sen. Eastland's attack on Justice
Warren and his colleagues is but the
latest manifestation of an old habit:
if you agree with the Court, or it
serves your purposes, then the JUS
tices are men of character, scholar
ship and wisdom. When you do not
like a decision then, by Sen. East
lands lights, you produce ''box
score'' to show that in every contest
between communism and Amer
ica's security the Justices favor
Communism.
He is calling them traitors. If a
prominent Senator does this, is there
little wonder that the mob goes a step
farther and cries chang them?"
But leaving aside the extremist
critics there are others who are be-
wildered by recent DECISIONS and dis
approve of them, for example, in the
case of school desegregation or more
recently Tennessee reapportioninent.
Why, they ask, is it legal for decades
to have separate but equal schools
for Negroes and white, then over
night it becomes illegal and desegre-
cation is ordered with call deliberate
speed?"
Why, they wonder. do we tolerate
minority (ruraD rule of our State
lawmaking bodies for half century
then suddenly outlaw the practice?
What many less strident critics
of the Court then Sen. Eastland
fail to realize is that the Court
from its earliest days has not ex-
listed in social vacuum. The Court
has been in a process of slow
change almost from its very be-
ginnings and frequently reflected
the needs of the times. The failure
to realize that the Court has under
gone changes results in part from
teaching of old stereotypes, for
example, that judicial power is an
instrument" of law and that the
claw" is always clear and unambig-
uous.
Out of all this confusion grew the
process of judicial review.
Among lawyers there is contin-
uing argument as to when the judi
,iary is warranted in overriding or
iisallowing the acts of Congress or
he Executive.
But such questions and such criti-
ism are entirely different from the
attacks on the Supreme Court by
political extremists.
In Mississippi the state supreme
court recently reversed a. judicial
tradition of long standing when it
leeided Negro was entitled to a
lew trial because he had been tried
" an all-white jury. If the Eastland
doctrine prevailed the attorneys for
he Negro would long ago have aban-
oned hope of getting Mississippi
Ugh court to overrule lower court.
instead they would have resorted to
ttacking the judges integrity and
atriotism.
There is an important difference
between saying the Supreme Court
is wrong, but we will obey the law
of the land until we can get it
changed, and saying, with Sen.
Eastland, that it is subversive.
