Faubus, et al Help Negro Cause The present existing situations in the Southern states relative to integration and segregation cannot be ignored by anyone. People throughout the world are taking sides on this hot and explosive question. However, it is felt that the weight of public opinion is with the law.sAmericans are a~ great people for honoring authority, and ~whatever has been Jaid down as the law of the land. They simply ~do not like to flaunt the law. Father Time has been both merciless and merciful to the Negro-in his struggle to attain first class citizenship. There was a time when a number of white péople simply Prone disturb~ themselves over any injustices befalling the o. The Negro has often been lynched, brutally at- | cked, and insulted. These acts against o dignity: ~of man wee tolerated and excused.. Since its inception, the NAACP has been fighting for the rights of the. minority. groups... This. organization, en-. | 7 48 ae ~ die puctent minds from-people of both 4" racial groups, a been successful in securing the ~best weap tiched with. se ons for its Ubemingly endless fight ~against bigotry, and sadism. It has. secured favorable Supreme Court rulings atid Congress has passed a ~Civil Rights Bill.~ Governor Faubus and his cohorts are busy arousing the nation and the world as a result of the most shameful and disrespectful flaunting of Federal Court rulings the country has witnessed in a long time. They have unwittingly obscured the cause of the Negro by setting themselves up ~against Federal rulings.. Thus every American, whether: he likes it or not, is brought into the picture, for the real issue now is State rights versus Federal rights. If the Negro | can remain cool and realize the wisdom of the NAACP in using the American courts to an advantage, his cause will be helped by-the last ditch ~stands of Gov. | Faubus and company. The Federal Government cannot and will hot act hastily for obvious reasons, but you can rest assured that the Government recognizes its acknowledged responsibility to all of its people, and in the wake of the school crisis, the cause of the Negro will have advanced.
