Civil Disobedience To The Christian Science Monitor; The key sentence of the eai torial on civil disobedience (Aug. 9) seems to me this: "Only by the rule of law can cumulative progress be made.’’ This marks the difference be¬ tween our position today and Thoreau’s in the middle of the 19th century. Thoreau believed that “the government is best that governs least, >» It wa3 therefore logical for him to have a very limited view of the usefulness of law. Today the law is evidenUy the major instrument of social re¬ form: To undermine the re¬ spect for the law is to blunt this instrument. Whoever vio¬ lates valid laws in the name of justice and progress sets a pre¬ cedent for racists and others who want to violate the laws which are promoting justice and progress. Civil disobedi ene may still be justified when a high moral law cannot pos¬ sibly be asserted in any other way, but much of the advocacy of civil disobedience today fails to pass this test.

(Why not do likewise?) Courier Ads PAY OFF! Anti-Rights Negro, 89, Is Tortured In Alabama GREENSBORO, Ala. (UPI) — An aged negro farmer who spoke openly against civil rights demon¬ strations was found severely beat¬ en and tortured, authorities an¬ nounced Wednesday. Two negroes, one of them ar¬ rested during demonstrations here July 29, were arrested in connec¬ tion with the attack on Perry Smaw, 89. The suspects, held on suspicion of assault charges, were identified as David Lee McAlpine, 19, arres¬ ted during the demonstrations, and Roosevelt Long, 21. Smaw was in critical condition at Hale County Hospital here, and Chief Deputy David Holloway said he was not expected to live. Smaw has been in a coma most of the time since the attack at his farm home near Melton sometime Sat¬ urday. Melton is a community about six miles west of this black soil belt town. Gov. George Wallace posted a $1,000 reward, the maximum the state can offer, and state troopers dispatched an investigator. Smaw was found 1 by relatives who visited the small home where he lived alone Sunday morning. However, the mutilation was not discovered until doctors examined him. Holloway said Smaw’s money and rifle were missing but he did not believe robbery was the mo¬ tive. ‘W don’t think he had very much money,” Holloway said. Holloway said Smaw was beaten over the head with an iron skil¬ let which was broken in the at¬ He suffered a fractured skull. His tongue was pulled out as far as possible and cut off with a sharp instrument “all the way back to his tonsil.” Holloway said. He said he was informed by several negroes that they believed Smaw’s opposition to civil rights activities was behind the attack. “I have information from some of his people that leads me to be¬ lieve there is a connection,” the deputy said. “He’s against them (demonstrators) and talked against them.” Holloway said Smaw, a “well thought-of” negro who owned his own land, had been downtown speaking against picketing of Vinson Promises Campaign If Russell Needs Help Former Rep. Carl Vinson said Friday he is ready to campaign for longtime congressional col¬ league Sen. Richard B. Russell next summer if Russell is opposed. But Vinson said he hopes that Russell won’t have any opposition. Vinson, 81, retired last year after 50 years in Congress. He will be supporting Russell, 07, who was his colleague across the hall for more than 30 years. “I’ll campaign for Sen. Russell if that’s necessary, but I hope he doesn’t have any opposition. He doesn’t deserve any. He has been Georgia’s most outstanding Sena¬ tor,” Vinson said. The same sentiment — a desire that Russell not have opposition — has been expressed recently by Sen. Herman Talmadge. Gov. Carl Sanders appears to be a likely candidate in opposition to Russell in the 1966 campaign. Vinson’s endorsement of Rus¬ sell came well in advance of any potential campaign. If Sanders runs, he probably would not an¬ nounce until next spring. The former Congressman, who now stays busy around his home¬ town in Milledlgeville with civic endeavors, said he would ‘throw my coat off” to help Russell. He said is is in the “best in¬ terest of Georgia to keep the Senator” in Washington. Russell, Chairman of the Senate Services Committee, and former chairman of the Armed Forces Committee, worked' together over a long of years. Vinson also had a kind word the Johnson administration’s of the war in Viet Nam. think the President is pursuing right course,” he said. — Atlanta Constitution. Music, Acting May be Deleted In California Schools CALIFORNIA sixth, seventh and eighth graders this fall will face so much they have to do that there will be little time left for wiiat they don’t have to do. Some educators predict they will have to give up music and art the extras. The musts — history, mathema¬ tics, science, English, physical education, and now Spanish, may eibow them aside. California law demands that they be in the cur¬ riculum no matter what. Spanish was added just .this year. Those .subjects add up to six and most of California schools have only a six-period day. That leaves no room for such extras as performing arts or humanities. Some educators recommend making the school day longer. But that costs money. And most school districts insist they just haven’t got the money to spare. — Christian Science Monitor. Fix-Up and Paint Your Rural Mail Box v Today arm Saturday.
