Atlanta And Little Rock
(From The Christian Science Monitor)
Neither the experience of Virginia nor of Arkansas with
School desegregation is really applicable in the Deep South.
There appear to be parallels and useful examples which spur
hopes for less painful adjustments. But these ore largely based
on wishful thinking without adequate knowledge of states
such as Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi
For instance, there is little evidence that the breakdown
of "massive resistance" in Virginia will prevent widespread and
possibly prolonged school closings farther south.
There appears to be a parallel between the clash of Governor 
Vandiver of Georgia with the Atlanta Board of Education 
and Governor Faubus' battle with the Little Rock School
Board. Mr. Vandiver has rejected a plan the board, under court
order, proposed, for gradual desegregation of Atlanta schools.
And in Atlanta as in Little Rock there is visible moderate sentiment. 

But there is not in Georgia, as there was in Arkansas, any
history of desegregation. And segregationist feeling appears to
be much stronger there. The Georgia Legislature has ordered
the withdrawal of state funds from any public school admitting
Negroes. It even penalizes any school from which they transfer. 

Atlanta's pupil assignment plan apparently is designed
to cushion pressures from federal courts. For to prove that it
is being used to maintain segregation may be difficult. If used
to permit even token desegregation, schools will be closed. All
this must be frustrating to those who expected simple legal
solutions. But it should-underscore the necessity for combining
persuasion with law where deep-rooted customs are involved.

Judge Hooper Gives The People And
The Legislature Time To Act
(From The Atlanta Daily World)
In a recent hearing on the proposed Atlanta pupil placement 
arrangement, Federal Judge Frank A. Hooper in clear
language of positiveness laid the question squarely in the lap
of the creators of the system, the legislature. In that, the issue
is no longer a confinement to the Atlanta Board of Education,
but a grave concern for the whole state.
Judge Hooper in his text of non-evasive catches and legal
phrases that only lawyers could interpret, rose to the level of
that judicial statesmanship already accorded him by stating
that for him to make any other decision would be begging
the question.
In this same category, he said: "The time is going to
come, and how soon I do not know, and this court itself will
be forced to soy, that old practices cannot continue....."
In further proof that the question, through the prayer, of
Negro parents at bar, becomes one for the state, the judge
said: "If the legislature did not allow the Atlanta School System 
to go through with this plan and if the court said the
Atlanta System must integrate as the Supreme Court and all
the Appellate Courts would order this court to say eventually
. . . that you must integrate regardless of what the Georgia
law says and if the Atlanta Board then integrated as ordered
by the court, it is contended that under Georgia laws as they
now stand, the Atlanta School System would close up."
"I felt it was the duty of this court to give the people of
Georgia an opportunity to decide what they are going to do
under all the facts, and circumstance's," stated the judge.
All in all, the Public School System is a creation of the
people through their duly elected representatives in the legislature. 
The system can be destroyed through the same media.
Judge Hooper has plainly slated the case, placing the responsibility 
of public education squarely at the door of its creators;
from that point the question for the whole state will be resolved 
— from a common denominator — to comply — or not
to comply.
That there be no misgivings, the Judge has boldly stated
—that it was not the duty of the court to keep the schools open,
but to integrate them.
Since the question of the whole state comes into the picture, 
of public education, it remains to be seen if the people
will through their representatives elect to strengthen the System 
or, destroy it entirely.
Verily, there can be no misgivings that the System of
education is on trial, with that dangerous symptom hanging
on every doorpost in Georgia. The people are in the throes
of their last hour to meet this challenge through their legal
representatives, members of the legislature.
Make known your wishes to those chosen to represent you
and who will be called upon to say whether your state will
comply with the mandate of the Supreme Court or close the
schools.

team, and its possibilities
are great. Coach Williams slated
it we get through the first part of
the season with a few wins, "I
think the ending of the season will
be great. We are counting on certain 
fellows to carry the team, and
if we can gel them to come
through, we're champions again."
Our football team had a banquet
sponsored by the principal, Mr. A.
B. Owens, Jr. All of the freshmen
team members were present as was
the football queen. Miss Gloria Nolen 
and the princess, Miss Veeta

The fellows were encouraged to
continue their athletic endeavors
on through his school. The team
gave three cheers Mrs. M. A. Williams 
and her home economics students 
who acted as hostesses at
the banquet. Coach Williams said,
"Everything was fine—especially the
chicken."
The Porter basketball team defeated 
Paterson 28-1 Tuesday in Porter's

British Navy

the Des Moines in Athens Tuesday
after his thunderous reception by
the Greeks, slept for 10 hours and
then, refreshed, worked in the Hag
cabin on his State of the Union
message to congress.
Eisenhower watched from the
flag bridge of the Des Moines, while
the 10,000-ton Tiger, Britain's most
modern cruiser, rendered passing
honors to Eisenhower and his imposing 
Sixth Fleet column.
The Tiger is the flagship of Adm.
Bingley, commander Of the British
Mediterranean fleet and commander-in-chief 
of the NATO forces in
the Mediterranean.
As the British cruiser passed some
600 yards to the Des Moines' starboard, 
the 21-gun salute boomed
out and the band on the stern or
the Tiger played "The Star Spangled 
Banner." The U. S. vessel's band
returned the favor with "God Save
the Queen."
Bingley's message to Eisenhower
relayed "all good wishes from the
Allied Mediterranean, fleet and all
British forces, Mediterranean," and
wished the President a "Happy
Christmas."
The Des Moines flashed back
this reply from Eisenhower:
"Think you for your courtesy.
My compliments and good wishes to
you and the officers and men of
your command."

TOUGH SADDLE
By MATT STUART
© By Matt Stuart, 1959: from the Dodd, Mead & Co. novel:
distributed by King Features Syndicate.
HIGH UP in the Saddlebacks,
some half mile north of
where the rocky precipitous ribs
of the Palisades ran out into the
more open hills, there jutted a
lofty point sparsely timbered.
From here a man with heldglasses 
might survey a wide expanse 
of country and a great
many trails.
From here a man could look
almost directly down, so it
seemed, on the toy-like buildings
of Running M Headquarters Well
beyond and north and deeper
into the plain Big Five headquarters 
grouped near the witlow 
and alder marked run of
Rosebud Creek.
More nearly directly east and
deeply distant on the plain,
flashes of reflected sunset light
on ranchhouse windows marked
Tom Grant's Drag 40 layout.
Even farther into the plain and
miles south, points of that same
reflected light positioned. Double
Diamond Headquarters while in
that, name general direction, but
closer at hand, the windows or
Garrison town also struck up
their shine.
Sitting on the outermost lift
of the point, his back against
the hole or a weather-whipped
pine, Frank Dalmar rested his
elbows on his Knees to steady his
field-glasses, and so made careful 
survey of all this that lay
before him.
His rifle was stacked against
the tree, ready to his hand, and
several yards back along the
crest of the point his horse waited, 
ground-reined and dozing.
For the past couple of hours
Frank Had been just as he was,
watching and waiting. In that
time he marked the movement
of several people.
He watched Rupe Hahn and
Pearly Grimes shifting about on
the Running M. occupied with
their ranch chores. He saw a
buckboard pull away toward
town, guessing correctly that
this was Doc Jerome.
Once a feminine figure moved
past a corner of the ranchhouse
to stand in the open clear, either
taking the last of the sun for a
little time, or watching and waiting 
for someone. With the sun
glinting on her bared head, there
was no mistaking her. Sub Vincent. 

Began now evening's push of
cooler air down from the higher
peaks, and the timber tops took
up their weave and sway and
gave off the voice of movement.
Frank got to his feet, laid a final
period of attention on the ranch
below and saw the yellow radiance 
of lamplight, break from
a couple of windows. After that
he picked up his rifle and went
back to his horse.
He rode the crest of the ridge
away from the point before turning 
into a timbered pocket where
a curdled dusk already lay thick,
and where a small trickle of
spring water Broke narrowly
from a rocky, face and spilled
into a tern-lined pool.
Here, earlier in the afternoon.
Frank had set up camp, spreading 
his blankets and hanging his
sack of food from a limb.
Now he unsaddled, watered
and picketed his horse. After
which he built his small fire,
cooked and ate a frugal meal,
then sat smoking by the dwindling 
fire while the night turned
deep dark and the wind grew
chill.
That night, out at Double Diamond 
headquarters, Jonas Dalmar 
listened to reports from two
of his men, Sage Wingo and
Wiley Goss.
"Frank didn't go back to
town," Wingo stated. "Last anybody 
saw of him there was when
he got his horse and headed for
homo this morning. When Bob
Custer brought in the Oakdale
stage I asked him if he'd seen
Frank along the road, and he
hadn't So, if Frank's skipped
the country he didn't take the
stage road out."
"Skipped the country!" exploded 
Dalmar harshly. "Where in
hell did you get that idea? Of
course he didn't skip the country. 
Why should, he? No, he's
just off sulking somewhere."
Dalmar turned to Wiley Goss,
fixing him with hard, black
gaze. "Well?".
Goss shrugged. "No better
luck here than Sage had. All I
saw around Big Five was that
Mexican handy man, Tonio Diaz,
choppin' wood, and his wife, who
cooks and keeps house there,
hanging out some washing."
"No sign of Asbell?"
"No sign."
"How about the Vincent girt—
you see anything of her?"
"She's at Running M."
"And nothing of Frank haywhere?" 

"Not hide nor hair," affirmed
Goss.
Bardo Sampson, listening in
on it all, spoke up.
"Use your head, Jonas. Would
Frank have taken blankets and
grub with him if he'd figured on
hiding out at some ranch? Of
course not. I tell you, Frank's
in the hills somewhere."
"Why would he go into the
Saddlebacks?" Dalmar argued.
"What's in them for him?"
"For one thing, a lot of places
where be could find water and
so set up a decent camp. But
why all the fuss and feathers?
Weren't you the one who said
he'd be back when he got tired
of sleeping on the ground? So

let's forget him and think about
the cattle we got to gainer and
move."
Jonas Dalmar sat in silence
for some little time, scowling
and chewing at his cigar. There
were things which Bardo Sampson 
did, not know, but which
he, Jonas Dalmar, knew all too
well.
Such as the true reason Frank
had taken on the big drunk. That
had been because of things he
had said and the callous brutal
way he had said them.
When he admitted that Double
Diamond was behind the shoing 
of Packy Lane and Ne
Madison, the look that came over
Frank had been of mixed incredulity 
and revulsion.
Not warned by this, he had
gone on telling what he planned
against Big Five and Running
M in the immediate future. Finally, 
still not content, and with
the venom rampant in him, he
had used the verbal lash wickedly 
on Frank.
These things, Jonas Dalmar
realized now, had been damaging 
mistakes. For it was not
beyond reason that Frank, because 
of his friendship with the
Vincent girl, would carry the entire 
story to Big Five.
Perhaps he'd been vastly
wrong in his estimate of Frank's
true feelings, toward Sue Vincent. 
Perhaps Frank knew, real
affection for her, was in fact, in
love with her, and would therefore 
place her interests ahead of
Double Diamond. And if Frank
hadn't already gone to her with
the story, he still might.
Unease stirred and grew in
Jonas Dalmar. Once the coup
he planned was reality, he
wouldn't care what people knew,
what they thought, or what they
said. By that time he'd have
possession of the Saddleback
range and, once he did, neither
heaven nor hen would get it
away from him. But until that
actual possession was accomplished, 
it was better that people
did not know too much for sure.
He rolled his cigar across his
lips and returned his glance to
Wiley Goss.
"All right. We'll assume Bardo's 
right Frank is in the Saddlebacks 
somewhere. Go find
him and bring him out Bring
him out if you have to clout him
over the head and knock some
sense into him. But—bring him
out! And if by chance you should
see Asbell along a trail, do a
better Job on him than you did
on Madison. For men you only
half kill can come back to haunt
you!"

wrong in his estimate of Frank's
true feelings, toward Sue Vincent. 
Perhaps Frank knew, real
affection for her, was in fact, in
love with her, and would therefore 
place her interests ahead of
Double Diamond. And if Frank
hadn't already gone to her with
the story, he still might.
Unease stirred and grew in
Jonas Dalmar. Once the coup
he planned was reality, he
wouldn't care what people knew,
what they thought, or what they
said. By that time he'd have
possession of the Saddleback
range and, once he did, neither
heaven nor hen would get it
away from him. But until that
actual possession was accomplished, 
it was better that people
did not know too much for sure.
He rolled his cigar across his
lips and returned his glance to
Wiley Goss.
"All right. We'll assume Bardo's 
right Frank is in the Saddlebacks 
somewhere. Go find
him and bring him out Bring
him out if you have to clout him
over the head and knock some
sense into him. But—bring him
out! And if by chance you should
see Asbell along a trail, do a
better Job on him than you did
on Madison. For men you only
half kill can come back to haunt
you!"

Malin said it was to be hoped

improve its service in behalf of
civil liberties through "greatly amplified

School Board Refuses

added that is would be "seditious,
if, not treasonous for the members
of our present school board to again
take oath of office for another
term, swearing before Almighty
God to perform their duties as
members of the Board in conformance 
with the laws of the land,"
without having sincere and honest
plans to desegregate our public
schools immediately.
"The members of the Board of
Education are deeply conscious of
their responsibilities in regard to
the school system of the City of
Memphis, "Armstrong told Dr
Smith. "When on January 5, 1960,
we again take our oath as members
of that Board. I can assure you
that it will be with a sincere intention 
of fulfilling those responsibilities 
as our best judgement indicates. 
We are aware that it is
to us that the determination of
the policies under which our school
system is to operate has been entrusted 
by the citizens of Memphis 
as a whole, with legal and
reasonable limitations, and we are
likewise aware of the complexity
of the legal and practical considerations 
involved. We propose to carry 
out this mandate by carefully
studying and analyzing these considerations, 
and adopting the
course which ultimately in our
judgement appears most beneficial
to the community as a whole based 
upon that study and analysis."
President Armstrong's letter did
not include mention of the United
States Supreme Court school desegregation 
desicion, and was interpreted 
by some to mean that
the school board will initiate desegregation 
of schools only by
coercion of a federal court mandate. 

The NAACP leaders said they
preferred to ask the school board
to come up with a desegregation
plan rather than take the matter
directly to court.

More Methodists

Negro.
Dr. Ward said that in Chicago
there are now more Negro members
in interracial Methodist churches
that were all-white churches five
years ago than are in the 13 Chicago 
churches of Methodism's Central 
(Negro) Jurisdiction. This includes 
one Central Jurisdiction
Church that has a recorded membership 
of more than 4,500.

Negro Seen Vital

Such a change would make race
relations consistent with democritic 
and Christian doctrines . . .
The elimination of race as a status 
category is the South's greatest 
potential weapon against the
spread of the idea of Communism." 

The speaker continued:
"The South's potential for national 
and world leadership is inextricably 
interwoven into the
realization that peace cannot be
certain until all men in this country 
have obtained first-class citizenship 
without regard to race,
creed or color . . . In order to
elevate individual merit and worth,
to a lofty position in our hierarchy
of values, in order to properly recognize 
the dignity of the human
personality, the first essential step
that must be token by the South
is to completely eradicate all legal
barriers that prescribe, racial interaction. 
To proclaim that legal
segregation cannot be removed until 
the southern mind has been
sufficiently educated or oriented
for change represents a gross misunderstanding 
of the process of
social change. The gradualism of
education in race relations requires
the millennium and this is more
time than the march of world
events will allow the Western Nations 
in the struggle against Commonism." 

Dr. Cothran also said that
"southern archaic stereotyped
conceptions of Negroes must be
modified through democratic interracial 
relations." He declared further 
that the South and the nation 
must change their concept
of education.
"We have failed to teach millions 
of Americans to reason and
to think rationally in the face of
emotionally charged racial appeals
of the political, demagogue and
the crass opportunist," the speaker 
admitted. "We have failed to
impress upon the minds of millions 
of Americans the priority of
American citizenship over a nebulous 
racial identity . . . We must
educate for integration which requires 
the ability to accept a person 
on the basis of individual
worth. We must educate our children 
to face conflict situations
without panicking or resorting to
violence, for conflict is inevitable
in a changing society."
The South's potential for national 
and world leadership can
be facilitated by freeing the lines
of communication between individuals 
of the two races," Dr.
Cothran advised in conclusion.
Dr. John Reid, also an Atlanta
University professor and member
of the Hungry Club Committee,
was moderator of the forum session.
