Th Tupelo Daily Journal Distributed by ; United Press International ' Thoughtful Mississippians today are searching their souls for a solution to the Ole Miss crisis and to others which hven amid growing deter- swrr to the deep-rooted cause of the riots which rocked the university when Negro Jamos Meredith sought to regisler under the protection of 700 federal marshals. But they know the answer to 'the real problem the problem far deeper than color of skin lies beyond their immediate reach. They fear it also lies beyond the join, reach of state and national capitals even if by miracle f fN. OPEN I B NEW ' - - A h t i u r t. v 1 2400 -ass? 2842 minalion to oreserve law and order, there is growing frus tration among Mississippi's responsible leaders. In Jackson they see a gov ernor wed to violence without indication that he would use the Highway Patrol, the state's only adequate police force available to rural areas, to maintain peace when inte gration of public schools be gins. tools which responsible lead ers might use to work their state out of its long-term crisis. Grade - a - vcar inteei-atinn pupil transfers, even the edu cational qualifications for vot ing all arc being challenged in one court or another with indication that thev will soon be wiped out by judicial or executive decree, leaving Mississippi's responsible lead ers virtually unarmed in fac self under strong and cease less federal pressure to yield unlimited political voice and unrestricted personal associa tion to a group which in many counties nf thp slate rpni-p. sents an overwhelming major ity, yet m no way is prepared to lake nvpr management nf government and schools. Color Ii Black The color of this group hap pens to be black. But it is , uuuunui u inai idci ucs ai me ! heart of the integration prob Behind the Ole Miss crisis and ahead of Mississippi for 20 years to come lie facts for which to the slate's thought ful business, civic and church leaders provide an almost in surmountable obstacle. Concerned Mississippians today are speaking out in agreement that law and order must be maintained at all costs, that there must be no repetition of the emotion packed rioting of Sept. 30. uarciiy go. For there are no supporters of unrestricted compulsory in tegration among Mississippi's leaders who oppose Gov. Ross Barnelt's call to violence, any more than there are among the governor's disciples. The reason behind the cris is is simple. The sincere lead. er strives to lift his commu nity and its people to a high er level of personal development. MONDAY AND FRIDAY NITES 'TIL J P.M.

Attendance I Rising Today, it js true, Negro school atlcnriuni.o i. -i-i.. Colored students In most coun ties Hiienrt newer and better buildings than are available i wnucs. And Negro teachers in many counties receive hiu er pay than whiles. But as of today there is in Mississippi only one Negro adult out of o wim a nigh school educa tion. In some counties the ratio is one in 50 or 60. And he white adult knows only the educational and cultural standards of today's Negro adult- not that of youngsters who may follow. Hence, tile thoughtful lead er in counties of heavy color ed population, however inter ested in the welfare of Negroes of his community, lends to ask himself: i "Am I justified In turning over the government of my country to people a majority of whom do not even have a sixth grade education? Am I Justified in throwing open schools without the safeguard of pupil assignment and transfers? "Can I risk the still further reduction of my slate's edu cational standards, which al ready ore critically low?" Going Only So Far Faced with such a dilemma the thoiiBhifiii , leader todav i onino far. He is speaking out In op position not onlv tr, iii., such as that which blackened me uic miss campus but against violence and inu,i... ness in any form at any time. j - - "" er, ni u.-ca not see now he can in- miiiimiEo compulsory in- k.Viuii wnicn, under cur. rent trends in federal policy, would apparently swamp ru' ral white schnni. ,.,nv. j .... uuiur- ed children. In major cities, segregation by residential nainku t . tends also to segregate the classroom. Only Negroes with money, ability and education move out into the white residential areas where they are eligible to attend white schools. But in some rural Miti;. Pi areas the number of Ne groes Whn Ont nn f..ti il . he fourth grade is larger than w. ..nai wnne population. And for the laftn,- i . der their schools to such a ma jority regardless of color is a move a thoughtful community leader does not voluntarily make. ' Hence Mississippi's rcspon sible eaders face a dilemma for which they see no imme diate solution and from which they fear enntimmr : and possible outbreaks of vio- mite.
