The trip was sponsored by the State Sovereignty Commission, an organization dedicated to preserving Mississippi's segregated way of life. This account of the visit was written by the publisher of the Mllford. N. H., Cabinet and Wilton Journal. By WILLIAM B. ROTCH Written For United Press Segregation of the races may be an establish" way of life in the Deep Sou' t when a New Hampshire Y. -e sees it for the first time the impact is roueh and disturbing. After only eight days in Mis sissippi it would be unfair to pass judgment on the state or its customs. At the same time it is impossible to return from such a trip without vivid impres sions. Contrary to a general impres sion the trip was never described to us as an opportunity to study segregation. Rather it was an offer to show the "true picture" of Mississippi, to allow a group of grass-roots newsmen a glimpse of a fast-growing section of the country, its accomplishments and its problems. The result was a week of sight-seeing and of ser ious discussions with business leaders and officials in widely separated parts of the state. No summary of the trip should be limited to a discussion of the race issue, yet no summary should ignore it. Segregation be came a sort of undertone of the entire trip. It crept into every conversation. It always seemed to smoulder close to the surface. Some people can ignore an issue of this sort. To me it was sick ening and depressing. Trip Marred Only the race issue marred the trip. It was always there, always cropping out in little snatches of conversation. Mississippi has no Negro prob lem we were told; it is the Northern magazines and agita tors who stir up trouble. The Negro Is content. He prefers separate facilities. White men pay the taxes sq the Negro can benefit from the new schools. If only people from the North would leave Mississippi alone to work out its problems to the satisfaction of both races. We heard that so many times and we almost believed it until some of us began slipping away from dinners and receptions and talking with small groups of in tense Negroes, tragically eager to talk to someone who would listen. This is not the place to docu ment those stories. Many of them we had not opportunity to check. But to me they seemed sincere, and they added up to a picture of indignity, of "second-rate citi zenship." Perhaps it was the contrasts that got me down. To ' sip cocktails with a lady radiating Southern culture while she related her daughter's lat est doggerel: "See you later, integrator; little while, choco late chile." To eat dinner with the publisher of the local paper and have him explain that he never had and never would pub lish a picture of a Negro, not Roy Campanella or Marian An- Daughter Born To Debbie Reynolds Hollywood (U.PJ Actress Debbie Reynolds was "doing just fine" in St. Joseph's hospit al in nearby Burbank today aft er giving a birth to a 6-pound 12-ounce daughter two weeks early. Miss Reynolds' husband, sing er Eddie Fisher, and her physi cian. Dr. Charles Levy, rushed the actress to the hospital from Palm Springs Sunday after she complained of pains. The baby, still unnamed, was born shortly before noon. The Fishers were married Sept. 26, 1955, in Grossinger, N. Y. Use Mail Tribune Want Ads The Community's Biggest Marketplace HEAR LARRY WATSON Sincere Democrat and civic leader of Eugene, Oregon "Why Democrats are voting for DOUG 171c KAY" ay:aK;&-: : "I believe in the constitution, concepts of the Democratic party as outlined at our Chicago con Tetmon. But Wavne Morse with his empty promises to farmers veterans, and selfish pressure groups has gone far beyond our party platform.

On. derson, because "we mustn't let down the bars." And an hour later to be seated in a bare office, surrounded by deeply serious Negroes appealing for the chance to be treated like men, to be given the privilege cf voting and equal treatment before the law, asking that their children not be brought up to feel inferior. They cited ex ample after example to prove their points. Dusty Road Ahead We asked one colored boy what he saw when he looked into the future. He replied, slow ly and solemnly: "I see a long, dry, dusty road ahead." That is strong medicine to feed a Yankee. The fact that there are islands of progress and hope does not obscure the islands of despair which to me seem to violate every principle of Chris tianity and Democracy. It is the South's problem, but at stake in this struggle is hu man dignity. If that is lost, I wonder at the value of the other things we were shown in Missis sippi. Perhaps it is ironic that I should feel this way after being entertained by an organization dedicated to preserving Missis sippi's segregated way of life. These are impressions. I may be mistaken. But so many Negroes, speak ing privately, said: "Remember, it is our tax money, too, which is bringing you down here. If you go home and write that the Negro is happy in Mississippi you will have let down the col ored man in his struggle for dignity." A New Hampshire Yankee can only view the situation with mixed and disturbed emotions.
