THOUGH it isn't the political thing to
say, these days, Senator Allen J Ell
lender has told the blunt truth in
lengthy S03-page African report to the
Senate. The Louisiana Democrat stirred
up hornets nest Of African reprisals
and resentment last year when he voic-
ed the opinion that most African states
weren't yet ready for self-government
This IS, Of course, the truth. We are
embarked on an idealistic, hopeful
policy, thinking these peoples will look
to America and our democratic example
and automatically follow us, and exhib-
it our individual democratic character
istics.
Nothing is further from the true
state Of affairs or the real prospect.
And Ellender says after travelling all
over Africa last year, that the more
than 800 million dollars we are spend
ing each year in Africa is mostly vast
ed.
Ellender also says Negroes in South
Africa are better off than Negroes in
most Of the other African countries
and defends the Union of South Africa's
apartheld policy. In short, he makes
the most non-political appeal possible
= and his recommendations haven't the
slightest chance in State Department
Of such liberals as Mennon Williams,
and others
The sad part Of it all is that the
African policy of the State Department
is a political must" and a theoretically-
appealing proposition to deaists, and
EIlender's words will be as unheeded
IN Washington as words can be - rea-
listlc as they undoubtedly are.

portunity to consider their 1854 deci-
sion in the light of experience not

come this opportunity to rectify in some
extent their former decision which has
threatened public education nationally,
more particularly in the South.
Whatever the outcome the record will

of both white and Negro children,

in this diabolical plot to pit races

THIS HEARING at Bruins
wick is not just another Segre-
cation case. It holds the po-
tentlal of shedding more light on
the involved question of school
segregation than any case yet

ness on the part of white par
ents to meet the issues headon
in the very forum chosen by the
Supreme Court and the NAACP
that is, the arena of sociology
and related sciences.
Whatever the outcome of this
particular case. the intervcnors
arc doing the country and the
courts a service by putting on
the record the case for the white
children not only of the South
but Of the United States. And
along with this, there is the con
tcnlon that separation of the
races in areas where numerical

is best for BOTH races, not for
one race alone.

The Allen-Scott Report
Kennedy May Use Troops in Univ of Alabama

WASHINGTON. D. c. May 16
President Kennedy has de-
cided to use federal troops, if
needed, in a degeneration show
down next north at the Univer-
sity of Alabama.
The President has approved a
request of his brother, Attorney
General Robert Kennedy, to be-
gin preparations for recourse to
this military measure in order
to enforce the enrolment of two
Negroes. one of them an en-
ployee of the National Aeronau-
tics & Space Administration, at
the University's extension school
in Huntsville.
Deputy torney General
Nicholas Katzenbach, who play
ed a key role when troops were
dispatched to Mississippi Uni
versity last fall. has been as
signed to work out the details
with assistants of Army Score
tary Cyrus Vance.
One proposal under co1isldera-
ton would federalize Alabama 5
National Guard division, so as
to remove the crack unit from
control of Governor George Wal
lace.
This preventive action is be-
ing deliberated because of Wal
lace's frank warning to Attorney
General Kennedy that he Will
employ all state forces at his
command to block enrolment OF
the Negroes.
In one talk with the young
Justice Department chief, the
Alabama Governor declared he
intended to accompany state po-
lice to the Huntsville school and
personally bar the way until re-
moved by federal troops.
President Kennedy is Just as
adamant that the two Negroes
shall be enrolled as students.
He went out of his way to
leave no doubt about that at his
weekly White House meeting
; with congressional leaders.
Our troubles in Alabama
may be just beginning he told
them. Il am determined to pro
vide whatever force is needed to
ensure that federal court orders
are carried out when two Negro
graduate students seek entrance
next month to the University OF
Alabama extension school al
