FRIDAY, FEBRUARY Is, 1868
Mass, Miss, Ga. and Va.

GOVERNOR Ross Barnett, of Missis-
" sippi, was given hard time" in
Cambridge, Mass. recently where he
was invited to speak. In the first place
he was denied the use Of high school
auditorium for fear that excited citi-
zens might damage the property. Then
the theatre in which he was allowed to
speak was picketed producing a tense
situation.
Governor Barnett spoke on the Cry
ing need for the states to preserve
their sovereignty as provided i n h e
Constitution.
mot only the Southern states" he
said, "but all of the states of the union
must be and are conscious of the pre-
sent peril to state sovereignty
Massachusetts need no longer point
its finger of scorn at Mississippi if in
deed its citizens will not allow dis
tInguished governor of sovereign state
to talk about the U. S. Constitution,
without fear of mob violence and /or de-
struction of public property. MISSISSIPPI
pi, Alabama, Georgia and other South
ern States have been subject to "inva-
SION by motley crews of individuals
bent upon breaking the laws of the sew
eral states. Unfortunately, some mis-
guided liberals were among the known
troublemakers who unlawfully attack
ed the laws Of Southern states, and the
Northern press was vociferous in con-
demnation of the reaction of Southern
people. The incident in Massachusetts
should make some faces red.

U. S.-SPANISH negotiations on
renewal of a l0-year lease for
American military bases in
Spain have been postponed. the
Pentagon announced Saturday
Deputy Defense Secretary Ros-
well Gilpatric was to have flown
to Madrid Friday to begin talks
on renewing the lease on three
air dromes, a naval base al
Rota, and communications ia
cilities. The official explanation
is that both sides need N 0 r {
time to get ready, but there has
been speculation Of a rapproach-
ment between Spain and France
based on recent military CON
ference in Madrid. The lease
for which Spain has received
about is billion dollars in eco,
nomic and military aid, expires
i'll September.

The more person digs into
the possibility of The Sou t h
throwing the 1864 election into
the House Of Representatives
and thereby electlng a Presi-
dent, the more sense it makes.
There just does not seem to be
any reason it cannot do so.
True, it may not but the evi-
dence indicates that it has the
opportunity. The point is, it can
if it wants to.
There are a number Of danger
areas where it may get tripped
there always are-and one of
them is in the House of Rep
resentalves itself. But exanina-
ton shows even that to be a
danger Of nominal sort.
Look at the situation: If a few
Southern States-say five-Were
to cast their Electoral College
votes for somebody other than
the Republican or Northern
Democrat nominee, the proba-
bilities are that by so doing,
those five states would destroy
the Electoral-College majority
either of the major candidates
might otherwise poll. In tn a
rcase..' the election of the Presi-
dent would be decided by the
House of Representatives. (l2th
Amendment
There, of course, the states
would vote as a unit-one state
one vote.
Now, if either Of the major
parties. in 1854. were to control
a majority OF the Congressional
delegations, why, the ball game
would be over, once the election
got to the House That party
through its delegations. would
name the President and TIL a
would be that.
But that isn't the situation. TO-
day, and it isn't apt to be in
1864. In the House, as in the
Electoral College, examination
shows, the South holds the bal
ance of power it always has.
Here are the facts: OF the SO
Congressional delegations, TO-
day, l8 delegations have more
Republican than Democratic
congressman. These represent

Rampant Crime In The CAPITAL
Roanoke Times, Feb IL. 1863

THE racial composition of it's popula
ton is often cited in explanation of
the extraordinary amount of crime in
Washington. The heavy concentration
OF Negroes in the city cannot be ignored
as main factor in the prevalence of
so much violence that has given the
nations capital bad reputation. The
proportion of Negroes involved in
crime there is matter of record and
Is grave concern for the responsible,
lawabiding majority of the race.
Many Of the streets Of Washington
are unsafe for pedestrians at night and
citizens are even unsafe in their homes.
Muggers, thieves and worse are on the
prowl SO habitually that the city's
newspapers give them little more than
routine notice.
This is the city which President Ken
nedy recently said Americans should
endeavor to make IAN example and a
show place for the rest of the world"
Within the space of five hours in one
night last week nine persons were as
oaulted in separate robberies on the
streets. This, we think, is evidence of a
situation that should be shame for
any American city whatever its size and
sociological atmosphere. Nevertheless
the evenings orgy of crime received
hardly more than casual mention in the
news columns of the Washington pa
rers.
Along with news of these happenings
appeared little item reporting that
many Washington churches were bolt
ing their doors as protection against
marauders and thieves and for the safe
tv Of individuals employed in their Of
ficeS.
Nearly SIS per cent of the capital
citys population is now Negro. The
problem Of discipline in the public
schools has grown steadily worse since
1ntegratlon was ordered. AS the num-
Der of Negro residents has grown, SO
has the crime rate. In the current issue
Of U. S. News & World Report are
some somher statistics. The rise in
crime for the country as a whole was
Ia per cent in 1861 compared with the
average for 1958-60 In Washington,
however, the increase was Al per cent.
Of those arrested i'll the city for serious
crime last year SAG per cent were Ne
groes.

The Allen-Scott Report
Russia Employing New Supersonic Bomber
While Kennedy Labels Us. Manned Bombers Obsolete
BY Robert S. Allen and Paul Scott

WASHINGTON, Feb. 11-Rus-
STA is deploying new superson-
ic bomber at the very time
President Kennedy is hating
the production of manned bomb
erS.
The new Soviet supersonic
bomber is the Binder, swept
winged four-engine jet with a
sound-shattering speed Of more
than 300 miles an hour that is
now appearing in Soviet air I'M
its.
This bomber has a combat
range of over $500 miles and an
operational ceiling of more than
10000 feet - or nearly 10000
feet greater than any U. S.
bomber.
Equipped with Russia's latest
air-to-ground balhstic missile,
the Binder is capable of dehv-
ering two-ton nuclear war
head On a target $3.50 miles
from its home base.
That is the foreboding Soviet
air capability which triggered
Defense Secretary Mcnamara S
order for "a thorough study Of
the entire problem Of moderniz-
ing our manned lnterceptor
force
Mcnamara revealed his m-
announced study when he testi-
fled at a private meeting of the
House Armed Services Commit
tee stating:
I'VE hope after making this
study that we will be in better
position to make some definite
recommendations on this sub
ject. I do not believe, in the
light of presently available in
telligence and wide range of op-
tons still open to us, that the
situation requires us to make
a decision now"
General Curtis LeMay, Air
Chief of Staff. told the commit
tee he disagrees with this as
SeSSment. He asserted the APP
pearance of the new Soviet
bonlbers and air-to- ground mis-
siles calls for decisions now.
To support his argument, Lee
May provided the House Com
mittee with an Air Force Intel
ligence summary showing that
| the Russians will have 100 Bin
ders by nnd-1963 and 300 by the
end Of 1864.
Directly counter to McNam-
ara's position, LeMay contends
the U. S. should meet this new
Soviet threat by "a proceeding
with the production of the sus-
pended air-to- air missile Sky
bolt. and ~ pushing the devel-
opment of the RHO, the pro-
jected supersonic bomber cap
able Of FLYING more than 1000
miles an hour.
General LeMay also wants to
start immediate production of a
new manned interceptor rather
than delay ITS development with
a new study.
At present, the manned inter-
ceptor force consists of a sub
stantial number of all-weather
air craft in active units COM
mitted to the defense of the
North American continent F.
lois, FLOSS, and F-106s.
None of these aircraft is cap
able of reaching the heights at
talnable by the Soviet Binder.

Vital Religion
Lesson for February II, 1868

There is a form of insanity in
which the patient loves, not liv-
ing human beings. but corpses.
Only crazy people prefer dead
things to living. And yet there
are people so far from normal
that they love dead religion
rather than vital religion. In
fact, there is so much nOnvltal
religion in the world, so much
dummy religion, machine made
imitation of the real thing. that
some people make the mistake
Of supposing dead religion to be
the only going variety, the only
kind available, and so they can t
be blamed for wanting no part
of it.
Vital Religion Is Big
In the time of Christ. Jesus
had His troubles and struggles
with men who had a dead sort
of religion. His vital religion
shocked them. even angered
them. They couldn't understand
it. or Him. and they didn't like
Him. One difference between the
Pharisees' religion and the re.
ligion of Jesus, was that they
were more concerned with tri.
files than with bigger things
They were very particular about
matters that didn't matter. They
were more particular about
washing their hands and their
d i S h e S in certain prescribed
ways, than about what went into
their minds. At another time Je-
sus reminded them that they
were so busy counting the little
green herbs in their vegetable
gardens that they neglected the
greater things, such as justice
and the love of God. Religion is
vital when it is big, concerned
with big ideas, duties, hopes. II
is vital when it can rise above
tl-ifles and see things in true
perspective. 1t is vital when il
looks beyond the horizon to
Gods children everywhere. Non
vital, trifling. dead religion is

was. It is popular because it is
easy. 1t is easy to memorize a
set of rules and keep them - as
can be done without much think
ing than it is to think out
maybe desperately, what is right
to do in new situations and con
ditionS.
Jesus called the people who
had this dead kind of religion
hypoclltes. and so they were
For another characteristic o.
nOnvital religion is that there is
a wide gulf between what the
man says and what in his hear

Studies Pact on
u. S. Wurheods

OTTAWA, Aug. IA (AP)-
Prime Minister Lester B. Pear
son met with his cabinet today
to begin a clause-by -clause
study Of a draft agreement
with the United States to OBJ
tain nuclear warheads for Ca
madam defense forces.
1t was the warheads issue
that touched off the contro-
versy that toppled the conserv-
alive government Of Prime
Minister John Diefenbaker ear
lier this year. Mr.. Diefenbaker
was criticized by the United
States State Department for
delaying Canada's acceptance
Of the warheads.
Mr.. Pearson said that as his
cabinet goes through the draft
agreement it may want clari-
fication or modification of
some clauses, and that the
agreement then would have to
go back to the Canadian and
United States, negotiators who
drafted 1t.
Basically, the agreement is
the same as the United States
has signed with other NATO
allies, Mr.. Pearson said. Gus
tody Of the warheads on Cana
dian soil would remain with
the United States. but Canada,
with the United States would
have joint control over opera
tional use.
