Southerners Urged to
Retain Segregation
Washington U.R) Sen.
Strom Thurmond (D-S.C), Sat
urday attacked the Supreme
Court for violating states
rights" and called on Southern
ers to use "every legal means
at their command" to retain ra
cial segregation.
In a press release labeled
"special segregation statement,'
he said recent federal court de
cisions against segregation
were without color of law un
der the Constitution."
"Instead, the decisions hinged
on the testimony of sociologists
and psychologists in the school
segregation case," he said. "Now
it is clear that the lower courts
feel bound to follow the politi
cal decision of, the Supreme
Court in the school eases."
He referred particularly to a
decision Thursday by the fourth
Circuit Court of Appeals in
Richmond which held that South
Carolina could not enforce ra
cial 'segregation on buses with
in the state.
Thurmond, State's Rights pres
idential nominee in 1948, said
the bus decision was "still an
other step in the attempts to
destroy the rights guaranteed
the states and individual citizens
under the Constitution."

Diem made the long-awaited
statement in a nation-wide
broadcast just before' the Gen
eva Summit conference and only
four days before the deadline
set by the Indochina truce for
talks to begin on plans for elec
tions scheduled for next year.
The American-backed premier
said he would never agree to
any. Communist proposals until
the Reds decide to put national
interest ahead of Communist
goals, renounce terrorism and
live up to agreements.
"Serving the national cause,
let us fight more than ever for
the reunification of our terri
tory," Diem said.. "Let us not
reject the principle of elections
as a peaceful and democratic
means to realize this unity.
"Yet if elections constitute
one of the true bases of Democ
racy they have their raison d'
etre (reason for being) on con
dition that they are absolutely
free. ......
No law has ever been passed
to designate how the stars in
the American flag shall be ar
ranged in design.
