Yankee Editor Views Segregation
In Mississipi With Mixed Emotion
Editor's Not; Nlntcrn New Ens-
land newspapermen visited Mississippi
last week to view "the true, picture"
there and report on It. 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,

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.
