CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla, May
10-The space agency will try
Tuesday to launch Astronaut
L. Gordon Cooper on the last
and longest orbital flight OF
Project Mercury.
If the "Mercury-Atlas g.
mission goes off as planned,
Air Force Maj. Cooper will
travel about 100000 miles in
34h hours, orbiting the earth
nearly % times. The plan calls
for him to be launched be-
tween Q and 1880 am. (EDT)
and to be parachuted into the
Pacific near Midway Island be-
tween $40 and $50 pm. (EDT)
the following day.
Should weather or other cir
cumstances prevent a launch
ing on Tuesday, there is a pro-
vision for postponements, "a
hours at q time.
Last Of Mercury Shots
Unless something unforeseen
develops during Mai. Cooper's
flight in the capsule "Faith-7,"
the mission is expected to close
out Project Mercury. This ini-
tial manned space flight pro-
gram was organized in 1858
and has cost an estimated 5000
million.
Maj. Cooper's is the last of
the six-flight rated Mercury
astronauts to get a space ride.
The seventh member of the
team, Air Force Maj. Donald
K. Slayton, was grounded last
year without flying, owing to
a heart condition.
The first American in space,
Navy Comdr. Alan B. Shepard,
has been assigned as back

means he will take over If the
primary astronaut is incapaci-
tated before launch time.

EustIund Sits On RIGHTS Lid

Seventeen Democratic Senators have jointly
introduced civil rights bill that they say would go
a long way toward ending ugly racial incidents such
as the recent one at Greenwood, Mississippi" The
bill would accept sixth-grade education evidence
Of Hteracy in tests for voting It would permit the
appointment of temporary Federal referees to pass
on voters qualifications, speed up voting cases in
the courts and require election officials to the
same standards in judging all prospective voters
And what? This wel-intentioned measure
will go into the hands Of the Senate Judiciary
Committee, presided by James o. Eastland Of
Mississippi, who has become known an ardent foe
Of civil rights bills.
Whenever you hear a defense of the seniority
system of appointing committee chairmen on
some such ground papa knows best and the old
est are the wisest - think of the Senate Judiciary
Committee and Mr.. Eastland Here is committee
that, above all others, ought to be enthusiastically
looking for ways to enlarge and protect civil
rights. And here is Mr.. Eastland, sitting squarely

Pardon Us If
We Seem To Boast

For the past two years and more, these news
papers have been pointing out that much of the evil
inflicted upon the nation by the Di1decrat-Repub
coalition in Congress could be voided by the
simple expedent of enforcing the Fourteenth
Amendment.
The Fourteenth Amendment provides full vot-
ing rights and full representation for Negro citizens
1t also provides that where state fails to honor the
Negroes voting rights it's representation in Congress
shall be reduced accordingly. In other words state
cannot deny it's Negro citizens the right to vote and
at the same time hold power in Congress based on
Negro population The Fourteenth Amendment has
been widely violated in the South, all know.
At the same time, Congress has ignored its duty and
responsibility in reapportonng Congressional seats
We have pointed this out to Congressman civic
leaders and the NAACP. Such responses as we have
received have been non-committaI. We now quote
from the washington Window, feature produced
weekly by the Washington office OF Labor Press
Associates:
In the light of widespread Southern defiance
of efforts to enforce the right of Negroes to VOTE
Section of the Fourteenth Amendment has sudden
ly assumed Importance.
The National Association for the Advancement
of Coored People is seeking a court test to enforce

mate and a strong forward-looking legislative pro-
gram.

point of view. We hope that efforts have had

Dr. Gallup plays foscy upon the notorious fact
that education is of the fields in which Negroes
have been Disseminated against most outrageously
A school that is predomnantly Negro is very often
poorly housed and poorly stated. When people say
they would not send their children to such a school
they probably expressing reaction to this fact

prejudice, if any, is expressed by those who would
not send their children to school where there were

AMERICAN.
Gov. Wallace of Alabama car
ried out his promise to bar the
doorway of the University of Ala
bama to two Negroes seeking to
enroll yesterday, but the governor
and everybody else knew that the
gesture was meaningless. 1t was
so proved a few hours later when
the Negroes were registered under
protection of federal troops.
$50, except as a political resture
in discharge of campaign promises,
Wallace accomplished nothing. The
statement he read in support of
the sovereign rights of Alabama
presented arguments which federal
authorities and the federal judici-
airy do not accept.

doing little more than expose him
self to the possibility of action for
being in contempt of court" -
Chicago TRIBUNE.
Forever to Gov. Wallace of
Alabama turned out to be short
day. He stood in the doorway of
the registration hall at the Univer-
sity of Alabama and held up his
hand as a barrier when federal
authorities approached. He thus
apparently fulfilled to his own sat
isfaction his many promises to per-
sonally bar Negroes from register
ing. But not long after, his state
national guard was federalized and
Wallace departed - charging that
the nation was threatened by mill
itary dictatorship.
This was Wallace's "segrega-
ton forever" 1t was in the comic
opera mold - yet far from funny.

eminent of the United States. He
did demean his office and make
himself look ridiculous. He contin-

Now that the Governor has full

TIMES.
Governor Wallace, however,
was still stuck with the accursed
campaign pledge, and he delivered
on it as best he could. He went
through the motions of barring
the Negro students from register
ing and in so doing defied a feder-
al court order, for which he should
have to answer.
But, having gone this far, he
lost heart for the fight and said
he would bow to the armed might
of the federal government" This
has become the standard face-sav-
ing statement of Southern officials
who take an extreme position and
then have to back down. He knew,
of course, that the federal govern
ment possessed the might" all
along. His statement predictably
ignores that it had more than
might on its side, that it had right
and the law behind it, too" -

JFK'S CIVIL RIGHTS APPEAL
THE Presidents speech, al
though announcing that he would
seek additional civil rights legisla-
ton in Congress next week, put
the race issue in its proper per-
spective as the responsibility of
individual Americans to respect
their own position in a free world
nation by insisting on full citizen
ship for all persons.
THE alternative, the President
correctly implied, is increasing
tension and an intensification of
1.-The fires of Illustration and dis
cord"
The Presidents message should
be a stabilizing influence in places
of unrest after the disgraceful
spectacle put on by Gov. Wallace
at Tuscaloosa recently" - Nash
Vile TENNESSEAN.
President Kennedy's moving ap-
peal to the conscience of America
should be regarded as one of the
most achievements of the civil
rights struggle. Only these citi-
zens who refuse to heed the appeal
can contend that the speech
achieves nothing.
THE deprivation of equal rights
and opportunities, Mr.. Kennedy
said, confronts the nation with a
moral crisis. Aside from causing a
rising tide of discomfort among
Negroes, it stands as a refutation
of the nations principles in the
view of the world.
Mr.. Kennedy outlined the pub
lie accommodations and other de-
segregation legislation to be sought
from Congress. But we think the
greatness of his talk lay in asking
the American people to search
their own conscience, to ask them
selves how they can pledge allegi-
ance to freedom while fellow ciu-
zens are not equally free, and to
proceed to fulfill democratic prin-
ciples.
