Business Unit Support
For Alliance Claimed

An advisory committee report
on the Latin American Alliance
for Progress was supported In
writing by more than 20 of the
panels rs members, Govern
ment officials said today.
These sources denied a story
in the New York Times that the
report. released over the week
end, had failed to win the in
dorsement Of the committees
majority and had been dis
owned" by several of the men,
bers.
The report was made to the
Commerce Department by an
advisory committee of business
men headed by j. Peter Grace,
president of w. r. Grace &
Co., New York. A spokesman
for Mr.. Grace called the Times
story distorted" and said the
committee chairma n might
issue a statement.
Disagreed on Points
Government officials said
they had received letters in
dorsing the report from more
than 20 of the committees
A few of the letters
disagreed on small points, these
sources said, but nevertheless
approved the report as a whole.
One or a few of the COM
members apparently do
disagree with the reports en-
phasis on use Of private CAPT.
tai to develop Latin American
economies, informed sources
said. This faction repeatedly
the need for United
States Government funds.
But Mr.. Grace was quoted
by one source as saying that
these members had failed to
inform him of their views, so
that their disagreement could
not be incorporated in the re-
port.

for more emphasis on efforts
in the field to improve the
Latin American attitude on
profits and private enterprise.
These three members agree
with Mr.. Grace on the other
major point at issue, the ques-
ton of emphasis on private
capital rather than Govern
ment funds.
The memo was not published
with the report, a Government
source said, because it had been
published two months ago and
so was stale" Furthermore, he
said, the memo was not really
a dissent and did not "disown"
the report.
Authors of Memo
The three committee mem
bers who wrote the memo are
David Rockefeller of the Chase
Manhattan Bank, Walter B.
Wriston of the First National
City Bank of New York and
Emilio G. Collado of the Stand
ard Oil Company of New jersey.
Government officials con-
firmed that the committee held
only one meeting, when it was
established last May. But they
said drafts of the report we're
circulated to all members, and
comments we're invited. Mr..
Grace completed the report IN
December.
Officials emphasized that the
committee, which remains in
existence, is an advisory body
than a Government unit.

ne New York Times Made An
INQUIRY INTO The
MISSISSIPPI MIND
Claude Sitton

When Mississippi Negroes gather
to dicuss their struggle for equal
ity, as they frequently do, one
story they tell concerns a planta-
ton field hand named John. Seized
by civil rights fever, he pays a
visit to the big house to proclaim
the new order.
mister Charlie" he says to the
white planter, "all these years you
and Miss Ann has Jailed me
John That's all right. But things
is changed There ain gonna be
no more Mister Charlie and Miss
Ann It's just Ann and Charlie
now. And, Charlie, one other thing:
Amt gonna be no more Missis-
sippi, either. From now on, it's
just .Sippi.'"
Mississippi whites see littl e
humor in the story. Mister Charlie
and Miss Ann quickly lose the
graciousness and w arm h with
which they are rightfully credited
if one suggests that racial customs
must lie modified. They know that
change is inevitable. But the mind
boggleS at the thought - and
sometimes slips its moorings to
reality.
This irrational reaction partial
ly explains some of the shocking
vents of the past year: The
bloody riots over Negroes adj
mission to the University of Mis-
sissippi, the continued denial of
minority voting rights - dram
atized by recent violence in the
Delta - and the harassment, in
timidation and force employed
against the whites who dare dis
sent from segregationist ortho-
doxy. Perhaps the most damaging
effects, however, of this state of
mind are being felt in other areas
of public life.
In the current emotional at
mosphere the INSCRIPTIONS have
virtual immunity so long as they
act in the name of segregation
Charlatans who would be laughed
off the streets in normal times
find a receptive audience. History
is rewritten, substituting pleasing
fiction for unpleasant fact. And
the Mississippian, who bows to no
man in loyalty to country, lends
encouragement or stands by silent
ly while his public officials flirt
with sedition.
The extent to which these devel-
opments have tried the patience of
persons outside the state is APP
parent in a recent recommended
ion of the Civil Rights Commits
sion. of the Civil Now is tibet ime
sion. The commissioners pointed
out that Mississippi paid onl y
$27O, 100000 in taxes into the
Federal Treasury during the 1862
fiscal year, while receiving $780,
O0O,0 900 in return. They urg e d

President Kennedy to determine
if he had legal authority to with
hold this aid until Mississippi
ended its "subversion of the Con-
stitution." (The President said he
did not have such power.)
The day of the commissions
proposal, state official suggested
that Mississippi might retaliate in
kind. Fred Ross, State Commits
sioner of Public Welfare, said:
"The question now arises as to
how much longer the white pop
ulation of Mississippi will con-
tinue to consent to be taxed and
drained of its sustenance for the
benefit of race and nation which
show no appreciation for their
sacrifices, in order to destroy it.
self by integration.'
Can Mississippi afford its UNI
compromising position on race?
What social debts has it incurred
by its intransigency? What factors
underlie the refusal to face real
ity? Is there basis for hope that
the state will heed the few coura-
geous leaders who are urging a
return to sanity? These questions
can be examined but not firmly
answered.
To understand Mississippis' IN
terracil conflict, one must first
consider the nature of the state
and its people. Despite its mono
lithic i'm ge, Mississippi is a
mosaic.
The Gulf Coast gives it touch
of Florida. Salt marshes and piney
woods alternate with groves of
m os $ draped live oaks and
stretches of sandy beach. Man.
sions of fading elegance compete
with plush motels for attention
along US. Route 90. The coast
already has shipbuilding, paper
making and fishing industries, and
soon will have SIPS million oil
refinery and a $500 million testing
center for moon rocket engines.
To the north lie cut-over timber
lands, small farms and sue
cession of dusty county-seat
towns. Deserted fields and empty
storefronts tell of the loss of pop
ulation to the states small but
growing cities-Pascagoula, Gulf
port, Hattiesburg, Meridian, jack
son, Vicksburg and Greenville.
The rolling hills that extend
northward from the Gulf coastal
plain are broken on the east by
stretches of Black Belt prairie and
on the west by the Delta. This
football-shaped expanSe of level
fields of sandy loan and buck
shot clay reaches 200 miles from
Vicksburg to Memphis, one of the
richest cotton growing areas in
America.
