Bor land Sunday, School Class of W4st Durham Baptist Church .at her home on Fourth Street. Attar a ^ahart «levotional period, the project on which flw elui is working and i CSKMmas Party were discuss (Continued from Page One) dary schools and, he pointed out, there are indications that some localities in certain of these states would proceed to desegregate were they not re strained by state authority. Citing the refusal of the Hoxie, Ark., school l>oard to re scind its segregation order un der pressure of the local White Citizens Council, Marshall said that local 4Sch^ol boards South Carolifia and other states could do likewise. I United States District Judge Trimble, he said, granted an injunction restrain ing the hate gr%ups from inter fering with desegregation of the Hoxie schools. In Texas, he ad ded, the State Supreme Court upheld the desegregation order of the Big Springs school b(^r}' which had been attacked ^;by “white supremacy” groups in tiiat oity. “The important measuring rod,’’ the NAACP lawyer asser ted, is whether or nqt a start has been made. You will find from this record that a start has been made awl rapid pro gress is following in half of the areas involved. It is just a mat ter of very little time t>efore the most recalcitrant states will most certainly follow the line. No state and no small group of states no larger than nine in number can continue to buck he will of the balance of the country. Once an opening was made in the Solid South, the end came into view. The widen ing breach in the South cannot be stopped short of including the entire South on the side of law and order.” -Bishop Reid- cult, to be supplied; Renno Cir cuit, W. M.

Hawthoj^e; -Travel- (Continued from Page One) Said the court in part: “The disadvantages to a tra veler who is assigned accomo dations or facilities so designat ed as to imply his inherent in feriority solely because of his race must be regarded under present conditions as unreason able. “Also, he is entitled to be free of annoyances, some petty and some substantial, which almost inevitably accompany segrega tion even though the rail carri ers, as most of the defendants have done here, sincerely try to provide both races with equally Convenient and com fortable, cars and waiting rooms.” i Said the court further: We are therefore now free to place greater emphasis on steps “to preserve the self-respect and dignity of citizenship of a com mon country” which this com mission in 1887 balanced against “peace and order.” We find that the practices of the defendants, except the Tex as and Pacific, in assigning or directing Negro interstate pas- sengera to coaches or portions of coaches designated or pro vided for the exclusive use of such passengers, and in main taining waiting rooms in their stattions designated for the ex clusive use of such passengers, subject Negro pa^ngers to un due ^^n3~unrecuK>nal>le prejudice and disadvantage, in violation of Section 3 (1) ot the act. We further find that the op^ ration by a lessee (noncarrier) of separate lunch-room facili ties for white and colored per sons in the railway station at Richmond constitutes k func tion or service which ^is not within the jurisdiction of this commission. An order prohibiting the con tinuance of the unlawful prac tices found to exist will be en tered. -President- (Continued from Page One) ^rnment. He warned that unless local authorities make every ef fort to apprehend Courts’ as sailants, Mississippi faced pos sible federal action. Gov. White described his move as “all he could do” short of declaring nuirtial law and he avers he has no intentions of taking that step. White wired Humphreys County Sheriff Ike Shelton to “do everything in your power to find the guilty parties. “I very much fear federal ac tion against us,’’ White told the sheriff who pledged to conduct a complete investigation. White, at a news conference in Jackson, said a recent series of violent acts against Negroes in the state, including three un solved slayings, tlireatens “seri ous federal trouble.” “If they can say that state law has broken down, there’s no telling what is going to hap pen,” White said. Economy Suffers He warned that the state's economy has been “severely in jured” because of the shooting of Courts, the slaying of an other Negro leader in Belzoni, the celebrated kidnaping of Chicago Negro teanager Em mett Till and the murder of a Negro political figure in'Brook- haven. Dist. Atty. Stanny Sanders also was urged to "do every thing possible” in solving the shooting of Courts. White said he had notified Roy Wilkins, executive secre tary of the National Association for the Advancement of Color ed People, that he had called on local authorities to make every effort to bring the guilty parties to justice. The NAACP in New York confirmed the receipt of White’s telegram to Wilkins, "We don’t know if the guilty parties are white or black,” the governor said. "We can’t accuse one race any more than an other, because we don't know who’s doing it. But we do know it ought to stop.” White reasoned that uncon trolled crime would give the state a bad name in the, search for new industries. The wounding of Courts, a former county-level NAACP head, was the latest in a series of incidents which touched off worldwide indignation and de mands for federal intervention to protect the civil rights of Ne groes in Mississippi. Three Afe Killed Rev. George Lee, a Belzoni Negro leader, Was shot to death here last May. Negro Lamar Smith, active in county politics, was slain on the Lincoln Coun ty courthouse square in Brook- haven last August, but a grand jury reported it could find no witnesses to the slaying. Young Till was snatched from a Negro tenant shack some 70 miles north of here Aug. 28. Two white men were tried and freed of charges that they abducted and killed him for a “wolf whistle” at a'^hite woman. Courts, who changed his' sto ries about the identity of his attackers, was confined to a hospital in Mound Bayou, an all-Negro town about 75 miles, north of here. Last Rites At Mt. Vernon For Mrs. Fannie Cox The Funeral Service of Mrs. Fannie Cox was held at Mount Vernon Baptist Church, Wed., November 30, at 2:00 p. m. The Rev. E. T. Browne officiated Mrs. Cox died at 712 Bacon St. at 3:00 a.m., Saturday, follow ing an illness of more the lour months. \ She was bom in Durham County and had lived in the city of Durham most of her life.
