, PAGE EIGHT; Sottifceraers Speak Lone Liberal (Fourth of Six Articles) By Bern Price AP Newsfeatures COLUMBUS, Miss. A liberal in a small southern town oitcn lives behind an iron curtain. Amory James, 34, a salesman, is in such a predicament. James is not his right name and he does not live here. He lives in a town about the same size, (houtih. He is a thoroughly miserable man. In all his town there is no one to whom he can talk. James cannot say to his wife, "I believe that every man black, brown, pink or white should have the same opportunity for an edu cation that I did. Hell, the same job for that matter. I've pot no scruplc3 against working with 'em. I did during the war." With her strict southern rearing, she would be horrified. Secondly, says .lames, "she talks too much." Might Lose Job t "I'm a salesman. The men I call on are the guys," he continued, "who are always talking about 'we'll help the Negro, but he's Cot to know his place." "I've been living down here all .ny life except for the time I spent in the Marine Corps and I haven't figured out yet what a Ne ((ro's place' is. "I'm making about $t',,00n a year right now. I'll bet you a trip to Honolulu--remember the bar at Kailua? that six months after 1 got tight and told these birds what I really think, I wouldn't get a nickel's worth of business. And I've got a wife and two young children to think about. "Sure," .lames continued. I've thought of getting out. but my wife likes it here. And I love her. She hasn't had an original thought, though, since she was 10. "I don't know what the answer is. Maybe it's in the children. Maybe with a break I can teach them that there's no real reason for looking down on a. Negro just because lie's black. "And maybe their children that would be six generations away from reconstruction would be a lot more tolerant. They might even be around to the point where they could sit by a Negro and not feel that black was going to rub off." Scoffs at Civil Rights The civil rights program? "By God, sir, it would serve the south right. Personally I'm op posed to it. I don't think it will work. I'm an individualist, ' and I reserit anything that might in terfere with personal liberty, mine particularly. I don't say civil rights will do that, but it might and I am not willing to take the chance. "If they do puss such legisla tion, though, I'm going out in the woods and find myself a phce all to myself and I'm going to laugh and laugh and laugh." The Ku Klux Klan? "They're not very active around my town, but I had a lot more respect for the Japs. "Come bark soon," he said, "it's nice just to talk. And if you see any of the guy from Okie (Oki nawa) tell 'em I got a dry hole and they ought to pav me a visit." Next: A Tevtil,. Worker Finns Find Thai It Is Possible To 'Gel Along' HELSINKI (AIM The Finns seem to have found something to talk about beside the Russians. There was a time after the war when Russia and Hussims appear ed to dominate, or at least, weiyh down, almost everv conversation here. Not so any more. ' Whero," asked a Finn, "shall we have dinner''" Recalling his last trip to a restaurant here more than two years ago, a visitor re plied, "Does it make any diiier ence?" The Finn smiled. "Food isn't rationed anymore, you know." He was proud and justly so. They went to an extremely nice restaurant ato;' one of Helsinki's fine build:, igs. Everything went beautifully, especially as fine a pa-ir of lamb chops as you can find this side of Paris. "During the war," si-id the Finn, "we didn't dance. We're doing it now." Hours had passed and the visitor met a lot cf Finns and still there hadn't been a word about Russia. It was left to him to bring it up. "Oh. Russia." said a young engi neer. "You Americans get too ex cited about the Russians. Look, we live beside them and we seem to be getting on." "Thi't." the visitor remarked, "was quite an observation for a Finn." CARTERET.
