Mrs. Rav Briggs Prisoners' Blood Found Better Than Free Citizens Parchman, Miss.

" A new sign went up. It read "Please Use Other Door." Communications Not . All Happy To the Editor: In regard to the fact that the Mayor's office has received calls only from peo ple who are happy with his de cision on D. S. time, Is by no means an indication that we are all happy about it, but feel there is no use in crying over spilled milk. There are still a number of us who think that if Mayor Flynn and the City Council be lieve that their first duty is to the people living in outlying and rural districts, instead of to the citizens and business people within the City of Medford, then I say let the rural districts put them In office on the next elec tion day.
