The President's Position Is Clear And Sound Some persons and publications are doing the Supreme Court and the nation in general a disservice in trying to put an incorrect interpretation on President Eisenhower's position about the school decision, especially regarding Little Rock. These pro-segregationists would give the impression that President Eisenhower is "backing up" on de-segregation. They suggest that the President Wants integration to proceed more slowly. One reporter at this week's press conference of the President, asked if the President had ever said he wished the Court had not made its school decision. The President stated emphatically that statement was incorrect. The President has wisely said on several occasions he would never give an opinion about the Supreme Court decisions because such a statement would have to indicate either approval or disapproval, and he was never going to do it about any of their decisions. But regardless how the President may feel about this school decision, what he has done about it is infinitely more important. He has repeatedly said since 1954 that he would enforce the court decisions. And he went the limit in doing just that last September in Little Rock. He said only last week that he would repeat his action if the situation and circumstances reoccur. Naturally the President, like any other responsible American, regretted the necessity of sending troops to Little Rock. But, also like all other responsible Americans, the government, through our Chief Executive, realizes the importance of upholding law and order. Take the other side of the picture. Attorney General William P. Rogers, in speaking before the American Bar Association told the South and the world, for that matter, that compliance with the Supreme Court decision is inevitable. He also said at the same time "racial segregation in public schools and transportation and recreation facilities must be considered a thing of the past." For the record we have presented above excerpts from that "talk" which the President stated would be his views. Atty. G. Rogers has made that "talk" and it would highly become those who would keep the record and the scores straight to show more care not to mislead and further confuse through strategy that was set up in the beginning to spread cushions down for the Faubuses. The President's position on this question is sound and firm. This statement is the official view of the President and executive branch of the government. The official view is the important view. Even in his first campaign in 1952 we were convinced Mr. Eisenhower felt there was no place for two standards of citizenship in our nation. He plainly stated so and after his election he immediately began using his great influence in eliminating segregation in the nation's capital. Also immediately after the school decision in 1954 the schools in Washington were desegregated at the President's personal direction. So the record on the President's position is clear to all who want to understand. World Medicine — Key To Peace While the diplomats of The United Nations go through their labored routines of negotiation, threats and compromise, in an effort somehow to keep the peace, it is a relief to be able to call attention to another kind of international meeting which recently occurred in Copenhagen — a meeting which held no possible foreboding of disaster, but promised nothing but good for all mankind. We refer to the twelfth general assembly of The World Medical Association, which brought together physician-delegates from fifty-odd free nations for a benevolent exchange of scientific knowledge. "When men search for peace through the processes of international politics, there is always implicit a frightful alternative, the possibility of war and death," declared an American physician, Dr. John Henderson, in the keynote address at Copenhagen. "We physicians face no such dilemma," he continued, "since we pursue only the objectives of the alleviation of suffering and the preservation of life." Dr. Henderson, who is medical director of Johnson & Johnson, New Brunswick, New Jersey, hailed the International Exhibition of Medical Films, a feature this year for the first time of the WMA meeting, as a significant symbol of the fact that science knows no boundaries and speaks with a universal tongue. While the life span in Western Europe and the United States has increased amazingly in recent years, Dr. Henderson said, age-old afflictions are still a major problem in the underdeveloped areas of the world. Disease breeds discontent and discontent breeds trouble. "Through the cooperation of physicians and the total health team in all countries of the world," Dr. Henderson declared, "there can be created a level of world health and world unity which could not otherwise be attained. This is the challenge which we of the World Medical Association acknowledge and accept." Such words merit all the multiple translation ever accorded the diatribes which too often confound and frustrate the debates of the U. N. Security Council and General Assembly. SOME FUN! "SOMEBODY PUT GUM ON THAT STOOL!" THE TIP OFF BY EMORY O. JACKSON With Florida's state university clearing the way for the enrollment of a Negro student, the number of totally resisting states to basic legal change in the field of public higher education is narrowed to four states— Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi and South Carolina. The Byrd doctrine of massive resistance in Virginia will eventually collapse. The Faubus theory of the superiority of state authority over federal authority in the field of personal and present rights is certain to lose. The plan to abolish or close down public schools to combat change in the long run will prove to be the undoing of the politicians and educators who plotted and designed it. Change is likely to suffer some setbacks, meet with many obstacles, and clash hard with the harden way. Mob action such as was displayed last year in Little Rock, Ark., had first been tried at Tuscaloosa. In Tuscaloosa, the mob won, law enforcement was impotent, and Autherine Lucy was driven from the campus. "If this occurs, there can be no equivocation. President Eisenhower has clearly stated on two occasions: One of the bedrock heritages of American democracy is that no man is above the law. No governor, senator or school superintendent is above the law as interpreted by the courts. There are those who seem to hold the view that prevailing white sentiment in a given locally places the displeased group above the law. That view is unsound and collides with the American concept of respect for law. As Mr. Rogers put it: "In our system of government, of course, the Constitution is the Supreme law of the land and it is the function of the judiciary to expound it. This is the very cornerstone of our federal system." Under the spurious reasoning of some segregationist avodactes the 14th Amendment is not a part of the nation's body of laws. Under this line of specious reasoning the interpretations of the United States Supreme Court have no place in the respected law. Such fallacious reasoning seems to be nothing more than the roots of anarchy. "Go Slow" Teachers sistently supported the principle of integration in our public schools in the North as well as the South, in the courts as well as in the community. It has actively sought the cooperation of other civic and labor agencies in the support of the 1954 Supreme Court decision. The American Federation of Teachers proposes to continue this determined effort until every child in the United States receives an equal opportunity for an education. Columbus Man Marks 50th Milestone; Once Bought 2 Loaves Of Bread For Nickle A Columbus man, who remembers the days when One nickle would buy two loaves of bread, recently celebrated his 50th anniversary as a baker with a few close friends Mr. Sensis Holmes, 433 3rd Ave., still works at a local bakery three days a week with no thought of permanently retiring in the near future. He says every time he decides to retire, one look at the pictures of old gang changes his mind. Holmes, known throughout the city as Friday, for the famous character in the Robinson Crusoe stories, spent 32 years at one local bakery until it was gutted by fire. He then switched over to his present employer where he has spent 18 years. Holmes, a very young 68 years of age, started baking when he was only 18 he stood on his feet baking on a 5 a. m., to 10 p. m., work shift. Also in his vast store of memories is the time he baked a huge cake for President Calvin Coolidge when the chief executive stopped in Columbus on vacation Holmes said he displayed a letter of Appreciation from the President on the window of his work-place for many years afterwards. As First Baker at the local bakery. Holmes also remembers supervising the baking of a huge assortment of cookies for President Franklin D. Roosevelt during one of F. D. R's frequent visits to his Warm Springs Little White House. Townspeople remember Holmes as the man who could produce delicacies that they though impossible. His phenomental talents in the baking arts quickly gained recognition from the bakery owners and he was made First Baker at the shop before reaching his 21st birthday. Holmes said he cannot remember just how how he learned his noble profession. He only recalls that his desire to do well at any trade he entered must be accountable for his great success in baking. The way he ably supported and devoted his time and energy to his wife and ten children speaks well of the character of the man and the quality of his work. Holmes said his children are all grown now and eight of them are married. His off springs are scattered throughout the country and their addresses seem like a condensed map of the United States. He is also the proud picture-carrying grandfather of 15 healthy looking grandchildren. Holmes admitted that fifty years of work is a very long time but he added that when his feet stop lead ing him to work early each morning he will retire completely. "But that doesn't seem too likely any time soon," he smiled. His neighbors asked the opportunity "to publicly congratulate Mr. Holmes for his splendid record in the bakery and in the community." He worked for Ederidge's Bakery, 32 years, and at Eidam Bros, for 18 years. REQUESTS ENTRANCE TO AN- OTHER LITTLE BOCK SCHOOL — Carolyn Kendrick's request to enter all-white Hall. High School in Little Rock was turned dawn by the school board this week. Integration Delay have more people," Dorsett said. He said his group did not plan to demonstrate in Winston - Salem, where the second year of integration begins Thursday. Two other Negroes who were integrated in Greensboro last year, Jimmy and Brenda Florence, were reassigned at their parents' request to Negro schools at the last moment. At Van Bureon, on the Arkansas River near the Oklahoma border, white pupils and signs reading "Go Home Niggers" greeted Negro students entering an integrated school. Police circled the school grounds to prevent incidents.

RINDO'S SPRINGS looked like a graveyard at night, absolutely dead. "Let's go have a closer look," I suggested. "On foot," Bill Hageman said and dismounted. That looked like a far walk to me, nearly three hundred yards, but since Bill was running things, I stepped from the saddle. We led our horses off the trail and tied them in a clump of bushes. With Bill leading, we soft-footed around the edge of town and threaded our way through a littered alley. Once I fell over a stack of old boxes and raised a clatter. Bill picked me up and said. "Why don't you just yell out, Smoke, and let Overland know we're coming?" He started to move on, then stopped bolt-still when three shots hammered the night, the echo bucketing over the empty town. When he started to run, I followed him. Heck Overland's String of Pearls was in the middle of the block, on our side, and three barked shins later we were both fighting to see who could get through the back door at the same time. Out front someone raced off the porch and mounted his horse. Closely following was the sound of a horse running. By the time we made the street, all that was left of the rider was a cloud of dust. "Let's find Overland," Bill suggested. I fumbled around until I found a kerosene lamp, then scratched a match to light it. Bill took the lamp from me and began to move around the room, looking in all the dark spots. Then I remembered something. "He lives upstairs, Bill." We went into the alley again, but the outside stairs were too rotten to trust "Around the front," Bill said. "Our shy friend came from there." After passing through the saloon again, we walked to the first, gap between the buildings. Bill shined the lamplight into the crack and we saw the stairs. He went up first, two at a time, and found the top door open. I crowded in behind him, then wished that I hadn't. Heck Overland was there all right, but he wasn't going to do us any good. He lay on his bed, leaking blood. His eyes were wide-staring as though he found the dark ceiling utterly fascinating. Right in the middle of his chest three slugs had been planted close enough to be covered with the palm of the hand. I doubt that Overland ever knew what had hit him: he must have been asleep when the killer cut loose. Bill Hageman cuffed the back of his hand against his hat brim, shoving it to the back of his head. "Someone sure knew his way around." He motioned toward the bed. "Without the light, a man would never know the bed was there." "Lets get out of here," I suggested, suddenly discovering that a man is never as brave as he thinks he is. "We ought to bury him," Bill said. "All right Can you get him down alone? I'll see it I can scare up a couple of shovels." Digging a hole, then covering it up takes tune, we buried Heck Overland in the alley. The night was pleasantly cool but we were both sweating by the time we were finished. I leaned on my shovel and said, "You know, killing Heck was pretty stupid. Luther's been convicted of killin Everett, and everyone will figure that whoever done that has been rustling too. Seems to me that with Heck dead, folks will start to wondering it the wrong man wasn't sent to jail." "I don't think many folks ever come over here," Bill said. "Heck could have laid up there, dead for weeks, maybe a month before anyone ever found mm. Then what was to say Heck wasn't shot and robbed?" He shook his head. "We're right back where we started, Smoke, but we'll flush him yet." Right then I wouldn't have given a lead nickel for our chances. Fifteen minutes sooner and we'd have caught our man coming down those stairs, but then I guess a lot of good things are missed by fifteen minutes. "Nothing more to do here," I said and Bill agreed. We walked out of the dead town to where our horses were tied and started back to Ponca City. A man can do a lot of thinking while he's riding and come up with some very odd answers. Maybe Bill was doing the same, but if he was, he was waiting for me to draw the first conclusions, which didn't take long for I've never learned to keep my mouth shut. "Overland was killed to shut him up," I said. "Somebody's scared." "That's no lie, but who?" I didn't know but I intended to find out. "It was no secret what me and Heck fought about in Lanahan's," I said. "Any damn fool could have figured it out from our conversation before the fur flew." "That's a big help," Bill said dryly. "I wonder where Randolf is tonight?" I laughed. "Not Vince!" Bill turned his head and looked at me. "Smoke, you can't tell everything about a man from his face. People ain't always what they seem." I wondered if he was talking about Cord. That might sound strange, my willingness to include Cord in with everyone else as a suspect, but since I'd been suspicious of one brother, it wasn't hard for me to move on to the other. Anyway, I was sure going to ask Cord what he had been doing all evening. And I was going to get an answer. I guess Pete Lanahan's Colt .45 made me feel man-sized. When we got back to the city. Bill look the horses to the livery stable while I went on to the hotel. I had no idea which room Cord had, but I was sure Edna would know; she'd just have to forgive me for waking her at three in the morning. As I approached her door I stopped, for she was talking, not so loud I could near her words, but talking nevertheless. Then I heard Cord's voice, indistinct, but still his, unmistakably. They sounded like they were arguing, then the voices cut off quick and I heard Edna step to the door. There was no place to hide, just bare walls and a dozen doors. Quickly I backed, tried the first knob my hand reached and felt it give. I just managed to close it to an inch crack when Edna flung her door open. "Just get out," she said flatly. "Cord, I would never help you, not after what you did to Luther. That was a cruel thing, and if I disappointed you, I'm glad." Cord stepped out, his face darkly angry. "You can't change what you are, Edna. you're a tramp and it'll come out in time." He canted his head sideways and spoke more softly. "You know what Ma would do if she found out? She'd kick you oft the place." "Then go tell her," Edna snapped. "Tell her now. You've nothing to gain by keeping it from her." Cord's shoulders rose and fell slightly. "Plenty of time, Edna. You remember what I told you now." He turned then and walked on down the hall. Behind me bed springs squeaked unexpectedly and I nearly had my heart jump out of my throat. Ma's voice said, "Who's there?" I was in her room! Edna bad closed her door and I guessed that Cord had started down the steps, so I quickly stepped out...
