Go. Go. Maroons

We've been going all over this country during
the past twenty years mixing and minging with
occupants of the highest places of honor and hav-
ing understanding of it's history and it's ira
diton, and the magnitude of it's PROBLEMS, racial,
economic, and political; we've been constantly point
ing out to those outside the state that despite the
circumstances of the immediate present Mississippi
ultimately will take it's place on the roll of those
who love and practice freedom and democracy along
with other states.
We were therefore happy over the final decision
to allow the Mississippi State Basketball team to
play in the NCAA Tournament where they will be
called upon to play against integrated teams.
Back during the football season, despite the
tragic affairs and happenings up at Ole Miss, it
would be hard to tell whether we pulled harder for
Ole Miss to beat LSU or for Jackson State College
to beat Florida AIM in the Orange Bowl Classic,
and we were tickled pink when both teams won
the victory.
When Mississippi States Maroons 60 up to
that tournament we don't care who they're going
to be playing, are going to be pulling for the
Maroons, because state pride, despite it's pres
ent handicaps and shortcomings, is firmly lodged
with the State of Mississippi.
Like we said to the Jackson State College Tig-
ers when they went to Florida to meet the AIM
Rattlers in the Orange Bowl. as they go to the NC
AA Tournament we say to Mississippi State, GO. -.

Albany, Georgia Abolishes Its
Segregation Laws

From over in Albany Georgia. last week,
came the news that the City Council has wiped
out all of its segregation laws, and according to the
statement issued by the Council in support of it's
action, desegregation and segregation alike will be
now left up to the individual citizens.
In some quarters, notably Rev. Martin Luther
King, Jr, the action of the Council has been bitter
ly denounced as being scheme to pullify mpend-
ing Negro civil rights suits and to avoid being
subject to orders from the courts.
Having long ago advocated the abolition of
segregation by law in this state we find ourselves
in full and complete agreement with the action of
the Albany City Council; having also found our
selves in full and complete agreement with those
from Presidents of the United States down to just
plain ordinary citizens, who have pointed out the
dire results that might be expected in attempting to
force people in to action conduct against their
will by court degree any other form of power.
Individual liberty being the highest expression
of American democracy, in having left the practice
of desegregation and segregation up to the ind-
vidua citizen, the action of the Albany City Coun-
Gil has erected edifice to American individual
liberty amid the confusion over civil rights.

discrimination in that South
Georgia city's public facilities"
King said the commissions ac-
tion cannot be interpreted as
anything that resembles a good
faith move"
There was little reaction here
in Albany. DR.. w. G. Anderson,
president of the Albany Move
ment which has spearheaded de.
segregation efforts, was not i'm
mediately available for COM
ment.
At the same time that 1t struck
down its statutes dealing with
segregation in transportation and
eating facilities the commission, by
q closer 4-3 vote, recommended
that the public library reopen on a
80-day trial basis.
The library has been closed since
demonstrations there In an effort
to get its facilities desegregated.
Wednesday nights votes did not
affect such public facilities as the
library and parks because there
are no segregation ordinances IN
volving these although they have
been kept segregated by the city.
The Albany Movement has
i, threatened 70 resume It's demon
'strations If the library opens on
a. segregated basis. The commits
sion said that the ultimate deci-
sion on whether the library would
open segregated would be in the
hands of the seven-man library
board.
That board is supposed to have
full control Of the library but since
the library gets most of its operat-
ing funds from the city, the city
commission holds the purse strings.
The controversy over Segregation
practices in this city of $1,000 has
been existing since December 1861
when more than TOO Negroes were
arrested for demonstrating against
segregation practice. A Negro bus
boycott early last year put the city
| transit system out OF business and
a economic boycott of questionable
success has been Waged against
white merchants for about a year
now.
The professors attempted to
knock down this city's segregation
statutes through a federal court
suit but District Judge Robert
Elliott of Columbus recently threw
that suit out on technical grounds.
| A commission spokesman said
Wednesday nights action simply
gets the city out of the legal pcsi-
ton of attempting to compel any
practice of any individual cperat-
ing a business. Now the decisions
on integration or segregation rests
solely with individual citizens and
not with the city of Albany as a
municipal corporation or with the
seven commissioners individually.
The spokesman indicated that
the commission was counting on
the businessmen to continue the
segregated practices cf the PIT
on a voluntary basis even though
there are no longer statutes to this
affect on the books.
The Wednesday night vote end
ed such ordinances as those calling
for designation of white and Ne
gro taxicabs; forbidding carrying
white and Negro passengers at the
same time in a taxi; restricting
seating as to race on passenger
buses; requiring separate racial
facilities and lines at place where
tickets are sC'd; and requirements
that Negroes and whites not be
allowed TO be served in the same
r.1n,n in restaurants
