STILL OFF LIMITS—This picture of one of the buildings on the campus of ths University oI
Mississippi, (Oh Miss ) which Governor Ross Barnett says is off limits to James H. Meredith. Ths
unreconstructed rebel governor has defied the United States govsmment in his refusal to permit
the Negro to the school. He called for the spending of time, money and even lives to preserve
what he terms the sanctity of the institution. America and the world awaits the next move by the
Justice Department.

will have to be satisfied with •
hall loaf it the recommendation at
the Law and Finance Committee oi
the City Council prevails.
The committee has been going
over the request from the ownara
that aomething be done to increase
their revenue, due to the fact they
were losing money. The committee
is said to be going to recommend
that cab* can charge for extra
passengers on all trips. 1. E. Dog
gett, representing the Yellow Cab
Company and Wiley Latham, repre
senting the Deluxe Cab Company
were trying to get the tare raised
from 43 cents for the first mile to
53 cents.
The committee would not agree
to recommend and increase on the
first mile, after the owners would
not agree to a cut in extra mileage
rates from 10 cents on the first
quarter to one third quarter mile.
This report brought a comment
from Carper. "You fellows are sit
ting here talking about your buai
m ss.” he told Doggett and Latham.
“But we ve got the whole commu
nity on the other side to consider."
After more wrangling, commit
