-CENTENNIAL COMMENTS-
Abolition of Slavery Begins
By JOHN LaltOSt II
I he North was determined to do away with slavery; the Missouri
Compromise gave it its chance.
The question of extension of slav
ery was only a minor question in the
compromise. The real question was
"Who shall have the balance of the
political power, the North or the
South”
Sectional jealousy over political
power rose first in New England
with threats of secession; New Eng
land finally decided, however, to
limit the extent of slavery and thus
gain the balance of power.
Pandora Honorees
Express Gratitude;
Cite Excellent Book
LOUISIANA HAD BEEN admitted
as a slave state; this admission made
the number of slave states and free
states equal, but the admission of
Missouri as a slave state threatened
to upset the balance.
Long hard hours of debate pro
ceeded the adoption of the Missouri
Compromise.
Samuel A. Foot, a representative
from Connecticut, said in one of his
debates: “The Missouri question does
not involve the question of freedom
or slavery, but merely whether slaves
now in the country might be per
mitted to reside in the proposed new
state; and whether Congress or Mis
souri possessed the power to decide."
T1IK BILL permitted all land
north of 36° 30' to remain free; all
land south, by implication to be
slave land and was passed 34 to 10
in the Senate and 95 to 39 in the
House.

creative act.”
Leighton Ballew, who has been at
Georgia since 1941, said, “I am fully
