Leaving town after an am
bilious attempt to sell civil
rights on the Hill, some 300 op-
tirnistic lobbyists have pledged
to keep fighting back home.
Just what all the optimism
was based on was somewhat OBJ
scure.
The delegates to the three
day legislative conference
sponsored by the National AS
sociation for the Advancement
of Colored People, talked to So
Senators and 1874 Representa-
tives. But the answer to how
many want all, part or none of
the impending civil rights bill
was temporarily buried in un-
tabulated reports.

Some Indications
while there were by no
means any reports of CONVEX
sion to civil rights of diehard
States-righters and other hos
tile legislators, certain unconi-
United members Of Congress
gave a sympathetic ear and in
dicated support"
Pressed for who they were,
Mr.. Mitchell said the report
wasn't completed. He also in
timated that the group did not
want to tip the hands Of Con-
gressmen who felt 1t expedient
to obscure their thinking.
At the beginning Of the con-
ference, lobbyists were urged
to see non-Southern Demo-
Gratis, liberal Southerners and

This Is akin To the vague,

ATLANTA, Aug. 9.-For
some 70 years after the re-
construction, every Southerner
was born into q, segregated So
ciety.
He breathed segregation. 1t
was his way Of life, deeply
rooted in his consciousness.
Moreover, 1t was clothed in
legality. In 1895, the doctrine
Of "separate-but-equal" wa
tested, and. the Supreme Court
held 1t to be constitutional.
Some may have felt twinges
Of conscience. even 80.
In 1.-THE south and the
Souti1erner." Ralph McGill,
publisher Of the Atlanta Con-
stitution, has written:
"The more sensitive South
erner often is self-embarrassed
by o realization that he has
accepted lirquestionably some
aspect Of his community life
which he rejects. But none
theless, he is q part Of what he
has met, and been. And the
past, in tales Of his grandpar-
ents, his great aunts and
uncles. has been In his ears
from birth"
Net Prepared for Ruling
In 1854, another Supreme
Court reversed the earlier rul-
ing. It held that separate edu-
cationaI facilities are inherently
unequal"
The ruling. to be sure, did
not come as q complete sur
prise. Southern lawyers and
politicians had taken note Of q
series Of court orders that put
individual Negroes In some
Southern schools. But the man
on the street was not prepared
for Indignation.
Overnight, In effect. he was
told. that he must now do .
mental about-face, change his
attitudes and abandon beliefs
he had always held.
Even where the effort was
made-and nobody can say
how many Southerners made 1t
this was no easy task,
Nearly 10 years have passed.
Barriers Going Down
Today, In the South. racial
barriers are going down. Not
only schools but other public
facilities and business estab-
lishments are being desegre-
gated. What ere the feelings Of
the Southerners as he sees the
old patterns Of life crumhling
around him9 i.
There Is no one answer. Re-
actions range all the way from
implacable opposition TO quiet
acceptance.
At one end Of the spectrum
are men like Gov. George c.
wallace of Alabama and Gov.
Ross Barnett Of Mississippi,
fIercely defending the old order
A legion of 6outherners applaud
them.
At the other are men like
Holding Carter. editor Of the
Greenville. (Miss.) Delta
Democrat. Ralph McGill and
others who are less well known
for their opposition to segre-
cation. Mr.. Carter and Mr..
McGill receive bales Of letters.
Some are favorable, more are
abusive.
Varsity Of Opinions

thought, you find these fig
ures--
There Is the Southerner who
opposes migration. but be-
lieves In law and order. Re-
luctantly, he says the courts
