Alabama Negroes
To Plot Course of

By United Press International
Negro college students in
are planning the future course
of their anti-segregation cam
paign. But Negro demonstra
tors at Nashville, Tenn., call
ed off a "back to jail move
ment. A two-day ice and snow
storm which paralyzed most
of the South caused at least
a temporary lull in the month'
old Negro campaign against
segregated eating facilities,
libraries and schools.
More than 1,000 students at
Alabama State college (Ne

school in protest against state

n o o n. Marzette Watts of
Montgomery, one of the nine
expelled, called today's meet
ing to plan the next move.
At Nashville, 145 persons
arrested for sitdown demon
strations at segregated lunch
counters of dime, drug and
department stores changed
their minds about going to
jail rather than paying $50
fines.
Thirty who chose to go to
jail were released under ap
peal bonds. The rest were
freed under appearance bonds
to await trial.
Nashville Mayor Ben West
appointed a bi-racial commit
tee to "study the issues in
volved in the sitdown demon
strations" which have been
carried on largely by students
from predominantly Negro
Fisk university.
Raise Defense Fund
Florida Gov. Leroy Collins
also called for an end to sit
down demonstrations which
have taken place in Tampa,
Tallahassee, Sarasota, Day
tona Beach and St. Peters
burg, Fla. Collins said the
demonstrations lead to disor
der, and "disorder leads to
danger to the general wel
fare." It was announced in New
York that a committee has
been formed to raise $200,000
for defense of the Rev. Martin
Luther King Jr., an Atlanta
Negro minister indicted in
Alabama on perjury charge.
King posted $4,000 bond to
await trial on charges he lied
about his state income taxes
for two years while a resident
of Montgomery, Ala.

Mississippi Senate
Votes Local Option;
Bill Goes to House
Jackson, Miss. (UPD Fifty
one years ago the Mississippi
Legislature voted to "forever
wipe ' the stigma of liquor
from state."
Today, the state Senate has
conceded that "some of Mis
sissippi's finest citizens" still
are seen at social gatherings
where liquor is served in this,
the only legally bone-dry state
in the nation.
The Senate voted 27 to 16
Thursday in favor of a local
option liquor bill that Sen.
William Caraway of Leland
said woud finally "make an
honest lady of Mississippi."
The bill was expected to be
sent to the House for a vote
next week.
House Fate Uncertain
Its fate in the House is un
certain. Also, Gov. Ross Bar
nett. a Baptist Sunday school
teacher, has refused to say if
he will sign it if it passes. It
touched off one of the most
furious debates the Senate
has seen since the subject last
came to the floor of the Leg
islature in 1952.

Investigation of
Faulty Airplane
Purchases Due
Washington-flJPD-A congres
sional staff investigation has
been ordered into charges by
government auditors that the
Navy spent $607,800,000 on
faulty planes and radar
equipment.
Chairman Chet ' Holifield
CD-Calif.) said he was direct
ing House military operations
subcommittee aides to launch
an immediate study of the re
port filed with Congress by
Comptroller General Joseph
Campbell.
"The sums of money in
volved are certainly huge and
this warrants a very careful
staff examination," Holifield
told a reporter. '
Deficiencies Uncovered
Campbell, whose auditors
keep tabs on ' government
spending, filed the report
Thursday on procurement of
F7U jet fighters, T2V jet
training planes, and APS44A
radar sets to help P5M patrol
planes track down subma
rines. The auditors charged that
even after testing uncovered
"known serious deficiencies"
in the planes and equipment,
the Navy continued to place
volume orders for them.
Navy's Reply
As a result, the report said,
"aircraft incapable of per
forming the designated mis
sion and unreliable and in
ferior equipment were pro
duced in volume quantities
costing over $600 million."
The Navy replied that the
report spoke "the truth but
not the whole truth." For one
thing, it said, it couldn't go
along with the implication
that everything spent on
equipment that doesn't meas
ure up to initial hopes is
wasted. .
"The knowledge gained is
utilized to advantage in later
procurements and the equip
ment itself may have a useful
life even if it does not com
pletely fulfill its early expec
tations," the Navy said in an
appendix to the report.
dered Sen. Ollie Knight of
Amory, a Baptist minister and
chairman of the Senate Tem
perance Committee.
"No, man should be given
the right to drink a beverage
that ruins his mind and makes
him lose control," said Sen,
Ed Williams of Olive Branch.
Most supporters of the local
option bill vowed that while
they never touched the stuff
themseves they knew many
who did, and the time had
come to recognize that hard
liquor is sold openly in many
localities. The state collects a
black market tax on liquor
sales, thus - giving them a
semblance of legality.
