t MAIL TRIBUNE, Mtdford, Oregon, Thursday, October 23, 1958 S In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS WE GIVE Problem news: In Little Rock Monday, more than 250 white seniors began classes in a makeshift private high school opened by a citizens group. The school, it is asserted, will be financed by private contributions. More than 3,000 high school students have been idle for the past seven weeks because the four Little Rock high schools have never opened. Arkansas Governor Faubus kept them closed to keep them from being integrated. QUESTION: Who will be the suffer ers? This, I think, is the an swer: 1. The CHILDREN. 2. The state of Arkansas and the South, if it follows i Arkansas' example. A N EDUCATIONAL system i based on private schools must inevitably limit educa tion to the children of the better-to-do. It can't be other wise. Neither the state of Ar kansas nor the South as a whole can afford to limit edu cation to those of its children whose parents can afford the cost of private schooling. If such a thing is attempted, the South will fall behind the rest of the country. The world changes. The South must change with it. Or take the consequences. BACK to politics. If I might be permitted a pious and impartial word about slam-bang politicking in California in which the GOP is currently expected to take a bad licking I think the GOP troubles there track back to TOO MUCH POLI- TTr'VTTvm Kir iVia Tlonnhlinanc lasi spring. They gave the appearance , then of getting together and deciding among themselves ! WHO SHOULD BE ALLOW- ED TO RUN FOR THIS AND i WHO SHOULD BE ALLOW- 1 ED TO RUN FOR THAT. The voters, acting traditionally, didn't like it regarding the choosing of their officials as THEIR business, rather than the business of the politicians. When the people don't like what is going on, they are apt to give expression to their dis pleasure in their voting. WE HAD an example of that in Oregon when at the last minute Douglas McKay resigned as Secretary of the Interior and rushed back to Oregon to file for the Repub lican "nomination for U. S. Sen ator. He won the nomination by i a considerably narrowed ma- s jority but lost in the fall to a Democrat. Mr. McKay is a good man, with a long record ! of excellent service to his j I state. But it seemed to the vot- j I ers, under the circumstances, that some political thimble rigging had been going on back in Washington. This feeling was reflected in the voting. . ; Elizabeth Taylor Sued for Back Rent ;Los Angeles -(UPD- Actress Elizabeth Taylor, who was believed to have been left a small fortune by her late hus band, Mike Todd, Wednesday ; was charged with failing to nay two months rent on a house at Tucson, Ariz. The 26-year-old raven-haired beauty whose New York dates with singer Eddie Fish er were reported to have caused the break up of his marriage with Debbie Rey nolds was charged with ow ing $3,000 in rent for Sep tember and October. Attorney Perry Bertram, . who filed the Superior Court suit Wednesday on behalf of M. Prison, claimed that Miss " Tavlor agreed to pay $18,000 for one year's rental of the j house where she planned to live after Todd's death in a plane crash last March 21. .
