Small Crowd Our
For Emancipation
Picnic For Judd

A small crowd of less than 40
adults attended the Twin City OBJ
server sponsored Emancipation
Day picnic Sunday afternoon at
Nicollet Field.
Although not billed as a political
affair the sponsors invited Con-
gresham Walter H. Judd, Repub-
lican candidate for reelection to
make the principal speech. Gov.
Elmer L. Andersen, candidate for
reelection was invited to introduce
the Congressman.
According to the Minneapolis
Daily HERALD there were about
40 adults around the speakers
stand, an "a fair number of chill
dren," who came ostensibly to en-
joy the Free picnic hot-dogs, cof-
fee, and ice cream" The daily's
headline in its Sept. "a edition
read: FEW NEGROES TURN
OUT TO CELEBRATE EMANCI-
PATTON"
Judd stated in his speech: This
hundreth anniversary of (of sign
ing Of Emancipation Proclamation)
is a good time for everyone in
America to stop thinking Of our
Negro population as a problem
and start thinking of it as a great
resource, still largely unused"
No mention Of the political ma
ture Of the meeting either on pla-
ture of the meeting was made
either on placards advertising the
affair or the news story in the
sponsoring newspaper which gave
publicity to the celebration"
A few adults who attended left
the park when they discovered the
political nature Of the event.
A preacher who gave the in
vocation asked that the Republican
candidates who were in evidence In
the small crowd be elected to
office.

There are, Of course, thousands
Of whites in the state who have
been convinced that integration

With little knowledge of the

Notions Newspapers


he's been assured full support of
the Ku Klux Klan and, with some
reluctance, the backing of state
payrollers, Mississippi Governor
Ross Barnett has found no SYM
pathy among newspaper editors
outside his own baliwick.
In fact just the opposite is true.
Generally newspapers throughout
the country have not only con-
demned his defiance of a Supreme
Court order to admit a Negro to
the University Of Mississippi, but
even criticized others who agreed
with his stand.
The Birmingham News, Ala
bama's largest newspaper, has
taken Governor-elect George c.
Wallace to task for his expressed
support of Barnett's effort to re-
sist federal court integration
orders.
The News said Barnett's plan is
"outlawed by federal courts before
he begins it."
In an editorial Saturday, the
News wrote: Governor Ross Bar
nett has committed himself to a
policy of potential tragedy. What
happens is his states responsible
ty. But all the South must heed.
Alabama especially must. Incom-
ing-Governor Wallace personally
commits himself and thereby
seeks to commit this state, to the
same policy, apparently. Thought
full Alabama citizens must begin
to resist this course right now.
Alabama cannot afford this
enormous error" the News con-
tinued.
