Unpopular Racial Integration In South Declared Spreading Editor's not: This is the second of two dispatches by a veteran Southern journalist assessing the school Integration situation in ad vance of the new school year start ing in September. By AL KUETTNER UPI Correspondent Atlanta-JEPD-Racial integra tion of the South's public schools is spreading. It's slow and it's not popular, but it's spreading. To be sure, there has been absolutely no break in the color line in some of our Southern states. These include Alabama, Georgia, South Car olina, Mississippi, and for the present Virginia. These states have adopted in the past four years a labyrinth of laws and techni calities to ensnare those who tamper with segregation pol icies. When one law is cut down, two more seem to take its place. On the other hand, some noteworthy cracks have shown in the dikes of the solid South since the Supreme Court's desegregation decision of May, 1954. Take Nashville, Tenn. Last year, the first grades were integrated. After a rowdy start, things settled down to normal. This September the grade-a-year integration plan approved by the federal courts moves to the second grade and officials estimate 230 Negro children will be eligible to attend integrated classes. And there's Clinton, Tenn., where two autumns ago Gov. Frank Clement called out the National Guard to quell a riot over the planned integration of the local high school. No trouble there . this past year although seven Negroes at tended all sessions. The same number will be back in Sep tember. Unpleasantness In North Carolina six Negroes were admitted to white schools in Greensboro, four in Charlotte and one in Winston-Salem. There was un pleasantness, but the token in tegration went with general smoothness. To date 79 Ne groes have applied for trans fer to white schools this fall. None accepted as yet. In Virginia, the state's "massive resistance" program is still m force and plans are going ahead under direction of Gov. Lindsay Almond to close the first school threat ened with integration. But there is mounting pressure in Virginia for a special legisla tive session to consider undo ing the' governor's program mere s . -.i.L. 4. sl:. iiu iaiv.il to una one ad we will run UT CARPETS We Will Include- and substituting a local option plan that would permit indi vidual communities to make their own decisions on integra. tion. Florida has a different but highly significant situation Until now the southernmost state has been staunchly seg regated. But the courts have ruled, and the University of Florida has agreed, that quali fied Negroes will be admit ted for the first time to the university graduate school this fall. Interesting Situation The attitude on the Florida campus as a result of the new open door policy brings into play an interesting situation- Here js a university that draws most of its student body from the home state and from neighboring Southern states. Old South tradition is ivy-and-drawl-deep. Yet, there seems to be complete calm and cooperative acceptance of the probability, that Negroes soon will be ofi the campus. A firm hand on the wheel seems to be at least part of the reason. "I am convinced that, re gardless of personal opinions or emotions,' it is the desire of students and faculty that, in carrying out the order of the court, it can be done with calmness and good taste." says Florida President J. Wayne Reitz. His student leaders echo the sentiments and seem nrpttv determined there will be no incident on the Gaines ville campus such as hit the University of Alabama a few vears ago. When Autherine Lucy, a Negro, attemoted to enroll at Alabama following a similar court order, riots ensued. "I cannot believe there will be any violent resistance from the university community," commented Don Boiling, a law school student from Jackson ville. - "Violence is the very antithesis of education." Manv Not in Favor "There are a lot of students here not in favor of integra tion," student body president Tom Biggs, of Georgetown, Fla., acknowledged. How ever, their feeing and attach ment to the university will prevent them from actively participating in anything that might harm the school." ( What makes it possible for integration to take place peacefully in one spot and not in another? It used to be felt that the main factor was the proportion of Negroes to 29, 30) . . . this whites in a state or a school district. That's still a big item, but it doesn't seem to be the real answer. Looking back over the last four painful years of imple menting federal court decis ions on this touchy subject or resisting them, as the case may be-it seems clear that integration has worked smoothest in areas where two conditions have been met: First, where agitation from "outsiders" has been cut to a minimum or eliminated; and, second, where local leaders really ' want integration to work. Oregon Farmers Reminded of Law San Francisco ,With the opening of schools close at hand in Oregon, farmers were reminded today that the Fair Labor Standards Act prohibits the employment of children under 16 years of age on farms during school hours. The ' reminder came from John R. Dille, Western Re gional Director of the U.S. Labor Department's Wage and Hour Division, the agency which administers the law. "The Federal child - labor law is designed to keep chil dren under 16 off the farm and thereby permit them to continue their schooling," Dille said. He pointed out that the law applies to both local youngsters and children of migratory workers. "The only exception to the law," Dille said, "is for the farmer's own child working on his parents' farm. . "Children under 16 may lawfully work on farms be fore and after school hours and on weekends or holidays," Dille added, "but stiff penal ties for willful violations can make the employment of chil dren during school hours ex pensive." ' Melerfeeders Get Fines in New York Syracuse, N.Y. (DPI) City Court Judge Walter J. Reli- han is at war with the so called meter-feeders. A $5 fine is the penalty for motorists who insist on slipping additional coins in parking meters here to per mit the use of the same space for long periods. , Offenders are issued yellow tags which require their ap pearance in court. However, they are not compelled to face Judge Relihan and fines may be paid to court clerks. According to the judge, the "parking meters are designed to keep motorists moving, and to give everyone a chance to park and shop.". S CULPTOR DIES Langhorne; Pa.-dlPll-George J.

O MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Oregon, Wednesday; August 27, 1958 JA Even Insects Have More Sense Than To Travel Fast Chicago - That fable about flies streaking 820 m.p.h. is for the birds. Top speed for insects is about 35 m.p.h. in short sprints, according to a British professor of entomol ogy. And you'll never catch a horsefly going faster than 15 m.p.h., he says. Even if insects could travel faster, they'd have horse sense enough not to, insect lovers claim. Too many dangers from traveling fast, they point out. The same Is true on the Hurricane Daisy May By-pass Coast Miami (UPD Hurricane Daisy and, its well defined center bearing 100-mile-an-hour winds today advanced slowly northward, away from the Florida coast.

Games were played, favors given, gifts opened, cup cakes, ice cream and koel aid served. Helping with the supervision of the children and serving were the Misses Linda Haw kins and Shirley Russin.

But a lot of humans, apparent ly, don't have the sense of in sects when it comes to driving a car. Speeding is a factor in about four out of 10 fatal motor vehicle accidents, according to the National Safety Coun cil. You don't necessarily har to exceed the posted limit to be speeding, the Council points out. Observe the limit in a 25 m.p.h. zone during a blizzard and you may end up with a ticket. "Speeding,' the Council says, "increases the likelihood of an accident. The greater the speed the less time you have to react in emergencies. It takes longer, naturally, to stop a speeding auto than one mov ing slowly. "Besides, speeding is costly. It can cost you money and maybe your life."
