Ole Miss Loses 81 Faculty Members

Even as this announcement was
being made the University was in ano-
Their hassle inspired by irresponsible
politicians who urged Withholding of a
diploma from James H. Meredith for
alleged inflammatory remarks he was
supposed to have made against state
officials. Had this action been taken
the generalization of the University
and all other state colleges would have
been seriously threatened.
When are we yer going to recog-
nize that we are losing some of our
finest and most talented people . and
that they are only a beginning of those
who are going to leave unless sanity is
restored in our state?
The same thing that is now hap
pening at Ole Miss is going to take
place on other college campuses in the
state - if the race baiters are not
put down once and for all.
Other institutions, professions,
industry and business are destined to
suffer in the future some already
have - because of inability to secure
topflight people willing to work and
live in Mississippi. This is going to be-
come one Of our most pressing prob
lens unless we secure the right kind
of leadership in the governors office
in January, 1864.

Coleman Is The Choice
(Reprinted from The Clarksdale Press-Register)

AS chairman of the Southern Cover
nors Conference, his reputation as an
energetic and progressive Southern
leader brought briefly to Mississippi q
national reputation as an energetic ana
progressively growing Southern state.
Not to be forgotten, amid the cur
rent weller of false charges and out
cries, is the fact that as governor MIR.
Coleman handled the racial problems
within Mississippi in a reasonable and
tranquil way. He did SO without ever
giving an inch to the extreme integra-
tionists and so-called liberals, who
have made a career of hating and
Furnishing the South. Without sacri-
flee of principle, Mississippi unde his
leadership enjoyed an excellent ma
tional reputation.
His opponents are trying to make
much of the fact that he supported
the election of John F. Kennedy as
president in 1860. He has openly adj
mitted now that this was a mistake
in judgement, but it was a mistake in
which he was joined by 108, 700 other
Mi~ssissippians including most of our
Congressional delegation, and, If the
truth were known, Mr.. JOhnson's bal
lot probably went for Kennedy also.
1t seems to us that the issue of
1860 is i'm the past. We are concerned
with the issues and problems of 1863
and subsequent years.
What is the real basis for Mr..
Johnson's fourth bid for the governor
ship? Three previous campaigns for
the lob which his father once held, a
four-year term as lieutenant governor,
and a 11-minute episode in the contin-
uing tragedy of Ole Miss. If, as many
of us believe, such responsibility for
this terrible event rests with the Ken
nedy Administration, if on that basis
alone we elect an otherwise unqualified
bit player in the drama as MISSISSIPPI
pts chief executive, We will indeed be
allowing Federal power, through a re-
verse English twist. to dictate the Sc
lection of our next governor.
Weighing the records, abilities
and achievements of the two men,
carefully considering their past service
and potential for future service to
Mississippi, Mr.. Coleman stands clear
ly ahead of Mr.. Johnson. ~ l,I.<-.

Prediction Comes True

The University of Mississippi's loss
of more than 20 per cent of its faculty,
first predicted in these editorial
columns several months ago, sadly
came true last week.
1t has been confirmed that 81
faculty members listed in last years
catalog will not be returning this fall.
Among the number are II faculty
members with the rank of professor
and II associate professors, the two
highest teaching grades. Among them
are two department heads, DR.. Samuel
F. Clark of chemistry and DR.. William
III. Willis of classics, both of whom
have headed their departments since
1o47. Dir. Robert Farley, the dean OF
the law school, had already announced
his resignation and the provost, second
ranking official at the University, left
sn January for California. Other resig-
nations were also effective at midterm.
DR.. Clark said in resignjng:
"Mv decision to leave Ole Miss, an
institution for which I have FELT and
still feel a deep affection, stemmed
from the serious loss Of academic free
dom to faculty and students of the
university and to the breakdown Of
moral and professional responsibility
on the part of the university's adminis-
trative officers"

OTHERS ARE SAYING =

In the runoff campaign between
former Governor J.. P. Coleman and
Lieutenant Governor Paul B. Johnson,
Jr. for the Democratic nomination for
governor of Mississippi, The Press
Register will support Mr.. Coleman for
the states highest office.
Considering all the facts, the es-
tablished records of the two candi-
dates, and our W estimate Of which
man is best able to lead and serve
Mississippi during this critical period,
we can, in good conscience, make no
other choice than to endorse Coleman.
The Press Register in the first
primary supported Clarksdalian Char
les L. Sullivan for reasons which have
been stated clearly on many occasions
during the past few months. We APP
proved of his platform, his approach
to touchy political issues, his basic
political philosophy, and we felt then
- and still do = that he would make
an excellent chief executive for the
state.
However, Sullivan did not survive
the first primary balloting and now
the choice must be made between
Coleman and Johnson.
On three different occasions dur
ing the past fifteen years, the elect
crate of Mississippi have seen fit to
deny the ~governorship to Paul john
son There were sound reasons for
doing SO then, and, in our estimation,
nothing has taken place since to JUS
tify reversing that verdict. While Mr..
Johnson's ambition has not diminish
ed, neither have his qualifications for
the Office materially increased.
In that last thought lies the key
TO the campaign. Which of the two
men is best qualified to render the
type leadership and service that Mis-
sissippi will need in such abundance
during the years 1864 through 1867.
Mr.. Coleman has spent 80 years in
public life. He has served as admins
trative assistant to a congressman,
district attorney, circuit judge. at
torney general, state Supreme Court
justice, legislator and during 1856
1859 as governor. During that admins
tration he made an excellent record -
one which even his present opponents
find difficult to criticize or minimize.

was appointed to the Senate
by the father of the current
candidate, the late Gov. Paul
Johnson, ST., has long been
a johnson family hacker.
Now Eastland and Johnson
apparently have joined fore
es with Gov. Barnett, a man
with whom they have often
differed in the past.
(Eastland backed the ma
tional Democratic Kennedy
ticket in 1860 while Barnett
backed the unpledged cleo
tors. Johnson ran against
Barnett twice for governor,
when Coleman was elected
eight years ago and when
Hugh White was elected II
years ago.
Dominance Foreseen
This trio also is supported
by an influential Mississippi
congressman, Rep. John Bell
Williams.
If johnson wins the COVER
norship, this new faction will
dominate Mississippi politics
for years to come. with Sen.
Eastland as the kingpin.
Coleman represents the
strongest obstacle in their
way. If Coleman in defeated,
then Coleman's friend and
supporter, Sen. John Stennis,
would be next on the list.
Gov. Barnett is the man
who has been talked about
as the logical challenger of
Stennis when he comes up
for reelection in 1864.
Williams In Line
Should Johnson defeat
Coleman. and should Barnett
defeat Stennis, then John
Bell Williams would be the
obvious contender for the
governorship four wears from
now, and the faction would
keep rolling.
Professional leaders of the
Citizens Council would play
a major role in the faction,
lust as they have done dur
ing the Barnett administra-
ton.
Coleman and Stennis have
held aloof from the Citizens
Council, which is one of the
reasons they would have to
60.
AL of this, of course, is po-
