NO GOVERNMENT anywhere

them, there is no city in the world
which has a worse record of racial
friction and violence.

Report says the racial tension
seething there “can lead to real
trouble.” Newsweek describes
much of the city as “a jungle
where no one is safe after dark”
and points out that conditions in
some schools are so bad that girls
have to walk the corridors in pairs
as protection against assault. Yet
Senators Javits and Keating who
represent the State of New York
are among the principal propon
ents of legislation to jail the peo
ple of the South for their sincere
efforts to spare their cities and
states just such deplorable condi
tions.
THE SITUATION IS not much
better in the principal cities of
the home states of some of the
other outspoken sponsors of force
bills.
In Senator Douglas’ State of
Illinois, arsonists recently set fire
twice to a Chicago apartment
building within a matter of hours
after it was occupied by three
colored families. In Senator Hen
nings’ State of Missouri, a mob of
1,000 Negroes prevented two St.
Louis policemen from apprehend

THOSE AND DOZENS of sim
ilar recent incidents which can be
cited should serve as a stern
warning to all Americans of the
inevitable consequences of at
tempting to force one race upon
another. They substantiate the
experience of the people of the
South that the cause of harmoni
ous race relations is best served
through the mutually-accepted
pattern of separate, but equal,
facilities.
That this is recognized by many
of the thinking colored citizens of
New York City is evidenced by
the report of the New York Times
that a number of colored parents
are sending their children to live
with relatives in the South in
order that they might attend seg
regated public schools which are
free of tension, violence and un
wholesome influences.
The experience of New York
City is an effective and irrefutable
answer to those who contend that
the mere enactment of new laws
is the answer to racial problems
anywhere.

as of the end

OOP RELIEF
By John B. McDaniel
“Your Hit Parade,” a long
time favorite on radio and TV,
kicked off the new season with
a new batch of performers and
a brand new musical format.
Don Walker, the new bandlead
er replacing Raymond Scott, is
a scorer of several top Broad
way musicals so there is little
doubt that he is properly
equipped to give this quarter
century old show (on radio,
that is) a fresh start.
Walkerls promised new
sound, a distinct departure
from what that show has of
fered for the past few seasons,
is more than a musical tuneup;
it’s a major overhaul. Among
other things, Walker has prom
ised that the listener is going
to hear a lot of highs and lows
from the band, a lot of bril
liance. Walker also had this to
say: “I don’t like to waste
notes, the idea is to have each
one work.”
I
Whereas Walker doesn’t like
waste notes, we don’t like
to waste lineage, so we’ll
quickly remind you that the
best piano and organ buys in
town are to be had at DUBLIN
PIANO CO. From a beautifully
rebuilt or used piano to the
finest new piano or organ, you
will do better by far at DUB

Alamo, and is now employed as
receptionist at Roy don Wear, Inc.
in Mcßae. Mr. Cliett is a graduate
of the Broxton High School, and .
।is employed by the Armstrong j
। Cork Company in Macon.
No personal invitations will be j
sent. Friends and relatives of the j
couple are invited.
After a honeymoon in the i
mountains of Tennessee Mr. Cliett; l
and his bride will reside in Macon.।
| CARD OF APPRECIATION
; To our friends and loved onesl
of Wheeler County: We wish to |
express our sincere gratitude for]
the comforting words and favors
shown us during the past thirteen j
and a half months without a i
home, since our worldly posses-;
sions burned on July 31st., 1958. j
Realizing our ever dependence
upon God it is with humble!
thankfulness that he has opened I
up away for us to be back home. 1
We pray God’s richest blessing'
on each of you. Our doors are
open to you with a hearty wel
come.
