miSS SUIt

T ITate'grate'
GULFPORT, Miss. (AP)-A Jus-
tice Department suit asking de-
segregation of Gulfport city schools
was dismissed by United States
District Judge Sidney C. Mize yes-
terday.
The judge ruled that the fed-
eral government could not "sue
for the deprivation of civil rights
of others" and therefore the suit
was invalid.
"The United States cannot sue'
for the deprivation of civil rights
of others. Only persons actually
deprived of their individual civil
rights can redress such rights,"
the opinion stated.
Mize is the federal district judge
who turned down Negro James
Meredith's bid to enter the Uni-
versity of Mississippi last year on
the grounds that Meredith had
not proved he was denied admis-
sion because of his race. Mize's
ruling was later overturned by an
appellate court.
Negro Parents

ENGLE WOOD (A')-Negro par-
ents called off a planned sit-in at
two predominantly white schools
yesterday and met with the Engle.

discuss a precedent-setting state
decision against racial inbalance.
State Education Commissioner
Frederick M. Raubinger ruled
Wednesday that the city of Orange
must correct racial imbalance at
Oakwood Elementary S c h o01,
which has a 99 per cent Negro
enrollment. jis ruling led to the
cancellation of the demonstrations.

"dress. The White House said there
were no plans for Wallace and the
President to confer.
Historic Moves
Wallace announced his decision
while two north Alabama cities
and a county government were
taking historic steps to avoid the
strife and violence that accom-
panied the desegregation drive in
Birmingham.
In Anniston, the city commis-
sion appointed a bi-racial com-
mittee to make recommendations
on racial issues.
The Madison County Commis-
sion voted to remove segregation
signs in the courthouse at Hunts-
ville, one of the towns Kennedy
will= visit. Huntsville also hired its
first Negro policemen.
In Washington, Rep. George
Huddleston, Jr. (D-Ala) asked for
a financial report on the Southern
Christian Leadership Conference
headed by Dr. Martin Luther King,
Jr.
Hits SCLC
Huddleston said the organiza-
tion was nearly broke when it
started the campaign in Birm-
ingham "and, if we can believe the
reports in the press, the money is
now pouring in."
"Claiming a great victory for
improved race relations, the out-
side Negro leaders left their color-
ed* brothers to work. out the prob-
lems the so-called 'preachers' left
them," he said.
Meanwhile, in Greensboro, S.C.,
police loaded demonstrating young
Negroes into buses, paddy wagons
and police cars last night when
they resumed efforts to integrate
downtown theatres and cafeterias.
The police took the unprotest-
ing demonstrators to jail where
they were booked on charges of
trespess or violation of fire laws
by blocking public entrances. No
violence was reported.
Bill Thomas, 20-year-old lead-
er among the Negro youths, said
the demonstrations will continue
every night until their goals are
accomplished.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. (P)--Former
President Dwight D. Eisenhower
said yesterday Gov. George Rom-
ney would have to be considered
for the 1964 Republican presiden-
tial nomination if he "does a good
job in Michigan."
But Eisenhower said he had not
made a move in anyone's favor of
the nomination and had no choice
at this time.
As for the report that he is
backing Romney for the nomina-
tion, Eisenhower said, "I don't
know where it comes from. Anyone
who says it is is just completely
off his rocker."
The former President noted that
Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller and
others were considered as presi-
dential possibilities.
"There Is another possibility f

said.

U.S. Presses Poland

WASHINGTON MP-The United States was reported putting
pressure on Communist Poland yesterday to abandon obstructive be-
havior in Laos and work with Canada and India to effect a secure
cease-fire.

United States relations with Poland. An administrative proposal now

Bias Ruling: Nine Years-Later

By RELMAN MORIN
Associated Press Special Correspondent
At noon, May 17, 1954, the Unit-
ed States Supreme Court outlawed
racial segregation in p u b 11 c
schools, striking at the foundations
of a century-old social barrier,
and opening a new sector in the
battle over civil rights.
Chief Justice Earl Warren, read-
ing the 9-0 decision, intoned the
key passage:
"In the field of public educa-
tion, the doctrine of separate but
equal' has no place. Separate edu-
cational facilities are inherently
unequal.
Basic Issue
"We come, then, to the question
presented: does -segregation of
children in public schools solely
on the basis of race, even though
physical facilities and other 'tan-
gible' factors may be equal, de-
prive the children of the minority
group of equal opportunity? We
believe that it does."0
Nine years ago, yesterday, the
ruling became history.
The ninth anniversary comes
against a backdrop of dangerous
racial strife in Birmingham, Ala.,
disturbances in Nashville, Tenn.,
and Negro sympathy demonstra-
tions in a number of northern ci-
ties.
When the Court handed down
the decision, segregation was man-
datory in 17 southern and border
states and the District of Colum-
bia.
All But Three
Today, desegregation of elemen-
tary and high schools, in varying
degrees, has taken place in all but
three states-Alabama, Mississippi
and South Carolina.
In the 18 areas, 257,628 Negro
children are enrolled in previously
all-white schools.
The District of Columbia, with
87,749, and Maryland, with 62,121,
account forabout half the total
Negro children in desegregated
schools.
The statistics were compiled by
the Southern Education Reporting
Service, which describes itself as
an "impartial fact-finding agen-
cy" directed by a board of South-
ern newspaper editors and educa-

tors under a grant from the Ford
Foundation.
Success
In St. Louis, Baltimore and Wil-
mington, Del., integration was ac-
complished successfully although
the proportion of Negroes ranged
from 30-40 per cent of the total
school enrollment.
Report Blasts
U.S. Testin
WASHINGTON (P) - A British
scientific report blasting anew last
summer's American high altitude
nuclear tests is reported under
active consideration - by White
House scientific experts.
The report complains of adverse
effects on scientific experiments
as a result of the artificial radia-
tion belt created by the blast.
These include damage to some
satellites which had been orbiting
in the vicinity of the worst part
of the belt.%
The report, made public in Lon-
don Wednesday and submitted to
the United States government,
called for internaoional, open sci-
entific discussion, within national
security limits, in advance of any
future large-scale space experi-
ments.

In Louisville, Ky., city authori-
ties worked quietly for two full
years, preparing the community
for desegregation-and then did
it in one swift move, without in-
cident.
In Tennessee, an all-white jury
convicted seven persons of ob-
structing justice in the integra-
tion of Clinton High School. Later,
the school was dynamited.
Where authorities acted de-
cisively, violence generally failed
to halt integration. Lawyers then
sought subtler methods of delay-
ing the process or blocking it en-
tirely.
No Federal Funds
In Washington last Wednesday,
a House education subcommittee
voted to deny federal funds to seg-
regated schools which do not pre-
sent desegregation plans next
month, and do not have a plan in
operation by June, 1964.
In Birmingham last week, a
prominent businessman told this
correspondent the white attitude
toward desegregation is in a "55-
45-25" pattern.
"People over 55 say they'll never
accept integration," he said.
"Those in their 40's say they don't
like it but expect to have to agree.
And those in their 20's say, 'it's
inevitable. Let's accept as much as
is necessary and get the show on
the road'."
