Waiting No Longer
Editor's note: The following is an excerpt
from a letter written to a jnoun of clergymen by
the Rev.' Martin Luther King, in response to their
criticisms of his role in the Birmingham disturb
ances. It was written from the Birmingham jail,
where the Rev. Mr. King had been confined
temporarily. It is the most impassioned statement
of the Negroes' impatience we have seen.
We have waited for more than 340 years for
our Constitutional and God-given rights.
The nations of Asia and Africa are moving
with iet-like sneed toward earning political ino
pendence, but we still creep at horse-and-buggy
pace toward gaining a cup of coffee at a lunch
counter. Perhaps it is easy for those who have
never felt the stinging darts of segregation to say
"Wait."
But when you have seen vicious mobs lynch
your mothers and fathers at will and drown your
sistei-s and brothers at whim ; when you have seen
hatefilled policemen cui-se, kick and even kill
your black brothers and sisters with impunity;
when you see the vast majority of your 20 million
Negro brothers smothering in an air-tight cage
of poverty in the midst of an affluent society;
when you suddenly find your tongue twisted as
you seek to explain to your six-year-old daughter
why she can't go to the public amusement park
,i.1 i i .i i: i ii :: J
mat nas jusi oeen auvei ueu un icieviaiun, miu
see tears welling up when she is told that Fun-
town s closed to colored children, and see omi
nous clouds of inferiority beginning to form in
her little mental sky, and see beginning to dis
tort her personality by unconsciously developing
a bitterness toward white people: when you nave
to concoct an answer for a five-year-old son ask
intr. "Daddv. why do white people treat colored
people so mean? ; when you take a cross-country
drive and find it necessary to sleep night after
night in the uncomfortable corners of your auto
mobile because no motel will accpt you; when
you are humiliated day in and day out by nagging
signs reading "white'rand "colored"; when your
first name becomes "nigger," your middle name
becomes "boy" (however old you are) and your
last name becomes "John," and your wife and
mother are never given the respected title "Mrs.";
when you are harried by day and haunted by
night by the fact that you are a Negro, never quite
knowing what to expect next, and are plagued
with inner fears and outer resentments; when
you are forever fighting a degenerating Bense of
"nobodiness" then you will understand why
we find it difficult to wait.
There comes a time when the cup 'of endur
ance runs over, and men are no longer willing to
be plunged into an abyss of injustice when they
experience the bleakness of corroding despair. I
hope, sirs, you can understand our legitimate and
unavoidable impatience.
And After Khrushchev?
"1 cannot hold for all time the position I now
have in the party and the state."
Thus the self-styled "engine of history,"
Nikita Sergeivich Khrushchev, in a speech last
April which cast a shadow ahead to the meeting
of the Russian Communist Party Central Com
mittee. What this means may be disclosed at the
plenum of the Central Committee June 18. A clue
to Khrushchev's successor may be given,
e
'"THERE ARE no experts on the Soviet Union,"
George Kennan, a former ambassador to
Russia, once remarked, "only varying degrees
of ignorance." With that caveat firmly in mind,
it might be useful to speculate on the possible
succession to Nikita Khrushchev this with fre
quent reference to a recent article in the well in
formed Frankfurter "Allgemeine."
The delay in the convocation of the Central
Committee from the original Mav 28 seems to
have been to give the p r e s i d i u m a chance to
screen names of possible successors to 1 rol Koz-
lov, believed to be partially paralyzed by a coron
ary thrombosis. Kozlov, second secretary of the
Central Committee anil member of the presidium,
had informally hoen culled "Crown TMnr-n "
Anastas I. Mikoyun, one of the co-first deputy
chairmen of the Party secretariat and a member
of the presidium, is ruled out of the succession by
the West German journal as "an Armenian and
. . . a member of the older generation," but he is
given full marks on having "an important say in
all personal decisions of this kind."
The two other members of both presidium
and secretariat, M. A. Suslov and O. V. Kuusinen,
are eliminated as being respectively, nondescript
oi personality ami mucn too oiu toj).
too
I OOKED UPON as contenders are Leonid
- Brcshniev, who as chairman of the pre
sidium is the titular head of state, and Alexei
Kosygin, a specialist on economic affairs and a
high member of the presidium. Alexander Shel-
epin, head of the state control organizations and
former chief of the secret police, is relatively
voung (born in 191S).
A hitherto almost u n k n o w n functionary,
Vitali Titov, head of the Central Committee com
mission for questions of party organization, was
given the job of delivering on behalf of the Com
mittee the message of greeting on the jubilee day
of the Becret police last November and the same
role on Army Day in January.
The Premier, now 69, seems to have been only
half joking when he told Avei ell Harriman, four
years ago : "We will prepare a s m o o t h transi
tion." - E. R. R.

Tha Spirit of Lessons
To the Editor: Many are
wondering what Is meant by
the term "Golden Age," and
its significance in relation to
Earth and Its inhabitants. The
subject Is so vast in scope
that a composite word-picture
couldn't be given in one let
ter; hence, it shall be pursued
further In future letters.
Let us first consider the
Golden Age from a cosmic or
astronomical viewpoint. There
is definite law, order, rhythm
nd harmony operating
throughout the Universe.
Planets, suns, solar systems
and galaxies move with math
ematical precision through
space during the course of
their cosmic progress.
Astronomers say that our
sun and Its planets revolve
around a Great Central Sun,
sometimes called the Hub of
the Universe, which is mil
lions of miles distant. To
make one revolution around
It requires approximately 26,-
000 years. This is known as
a major cycle.
Our Solar System has, for
thousands of years, been
hurtling through space at a
speed in excess of 166,000
miles per hour, spiraling up
ward through the "arcs of
heave n." or signs of the
zodiac which are the 12 con
stcllntions. The time spent
in traveling through each arc
is a little more than 2,100
years, and is called an Age,
or Dispensation. This is
known as a minor cycle.
We have now emerged
from the Plscean Age Into
the Aquarian. Pisces is a wa
ter sign, and during our
sojourn there, water and its
many uses were stressed. Wa
ter navigation has been
brought to a high degree of
efficiency. Its native, the fish,
was the early symbol for
Christianity. Tortullian wrote:
"We are little fishes In Christ,
our great fish."
Aquarius is an air sign,
symbolized by the water-
brarer. It Is a higher mental
and pre-eminently spiritual
Arc. Air will be emphasized.
Remarkable Inventions for
(he use of air, electricity and
magnetism have already come
forth. Radio sends thoughts
spinning around the globe,
and TV is fast becoming as
efficient.
As we enler more deeply
into the Aquarian Age, our
entire Solar System will re
ceive a higher vibrational
frequency, for it is moving
nearer to the Great Central
Sun, receiving ever-increasing
amounts of its higher radia
tion. Because of this closer
proximity to that enormous
Sun, this Age is called "Gold
en." Many are now coming into
an advanced stage of spiritual
consciousness - an awareness
of quickened intuition, inspir
ation and spontaneous knowl
edge.' Now the spirit of the
lessons Jesus gave will be
comprehended the spirit be
hind the literal word!

Comments on Signs
To the Editor: What docs
Jackson county have to offer
as tourist attractions? Your
editorial Sunday pointed out
many of the fine areas they
would appreciate seeing. How
should they be directed to
these sights? The tourist com
mittee of the Medford Cham-
oer of Commerce proposes
six-gun signs to catch the eye
These signs appear to be more
on the order of tourist dis
tractions than attractions.
Visual dignity Is important
in introducing something as
fine to see as the sights of
Jackson county. The proposed
signs can leave the impression
of a cheap carnival side-show.
It would be bad enough for
tourists to have to look at the
signs during one trip through
the area but those of us who
see them every day would
tire of living with thein.
Attractive signs have been
designed, such as the Oregon
centennial points of interest
and the PP&L signs which
have recently been installed
In many places. It would not
be difficult to design a tour
ist sign that would have more
eye appeal than a large wood
en gun.
How many tourists would
be entertained with the mes
sage hanging from the gun,
"Walch Out for Indian Upris
ings Crossing the Road"? Is
that more important than the
trees and the mountains that
it distracts the eye from?
Would It leave a favorable
Impression? Does it do justice
to what Jackson county has
to offer visitors?
I hope the signs are not
considered successful.

MATURITY
What impressed me most
about the Edward Albee play,
"Who's Afraid of Virginia
Woolf?"-apart
from the stun-
performance s
the brilliant
e w York
company- was
the play
wright's Choice of
c h a r a c ters
and setting.
Harria H is a devas
tating and shattering play, and
it can be effectively crlticlzea
on a quite high level (as, for
instance, in a recent review of
"Commentary" maga z I n e);
but, apart from its inborn de
fects, I thought that Albee
showed courage and Imagin
ation In making his characters
intelligent and educated, and
placing them In the groves of
academe.
It is simply too easy for a
playwright to attack and lam
poon all the familiar stereo
types of bourgeois life in
America today - to mock the
advertising man or the busi
ness man or the world oi
clubs, of fashion, of small
town insularity, of big-city op
portunism. '
Intttad, Albtt aimed hit
thaftt at thott who profess
higher thingst tht faculty
people, articulata, orltnttd,
and presumably civiliitd.
Hit play it not "anti-intellectual"!
he does not deride
these ptoplt's intellectual
superiority. Ha m t r 1 1 y
demonstrates thai they are,
at much as anybody else,
tha victims of thair own
unconiciout conflicts.
These people have mora
sensitivity, mora knowl
edgt, mora fretdom from
the presturtt of compttitivt
life, at least in tha grosser
ways. Yet none of this
helps: faced with a bad mar
riage, with professional
frustrations, . they turn on
ach other ferocioutly and
behave (btcaute of their
ariiculatenets) worse than
the Philistines they look
down upon.
- What Albee forces us to
rtcognist is that psychic
disturbance and emotional
malaise art not a malttr of
class, of culture, even of
mental stature. Immaturity
cuts across all lints; it it as
prevaltnt In tha seminar as
in the saloon, as self-defeating
in tht faculty lounge at
in tha factory lunchroom or
the hunting lodge.
' Some ways of life, some oc
cupations, it is true, may tend
to bring on these disturbances
more quickly or more dra
matically; while others may
mask them for a longer time.
But, 'inevitably, the price of
not growing up is the same
everywhere - bitterness, blind
rage and suffocation by the
illusions that do not comfort.
"Who's Afraid of Virginia
Woolf?" may be marred by
some serious flaws in the
playwright's own view of life
yet, for denying himself the
luxury of aiming at easy; tar
gets, and for probing beneath
the flesh of the very people
who most admire him, Albee
makes a point that is missed
by most of the satirists and
anatomists of the social scene.

his meet-the-people tour of
southwestern France, remind
ing his audiences that he
would not be around forever.
Since De Gaulle never drops
remarks casually, the guess
ing is that he is launching a
long-term campaign to con
vince the nation's voters that
his successor should be a man
pledged to carry on the work
of his "strong man" Fifth Re
public rather than a holdover
from the old Fourth Republic.
It is generally assumed, al
though De Gaulle never has
said anything in public to con
firm it, that his current choice
as successor is Premier Geor
ges Pompidou, the 51-year-old
House of Rothschild banker
who has headed the govern
ment since April last year.
The name of Henri Count of
Paris, 54-year-old pretender to
the French throne, also has
been mentioned recently. But
there is nothing to indicate
he is a serious candidate.

In the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
In Jackson, Mississippi, the
other day, Mcdgar Evers, NA
ACP field secretary for the
state of Mississippi, was shot
from ambush by an unknown
sniper.
He was SHOT IN THE
BACK, in the driveway of his
modest home in the colored
district of Mississippi's capital
city, as he was returning from
a civil rights rally.
The slug from the assasin's
rifle passed through his body,
crashed through a picture win
dow in the front of his house,
where his wife and three chil
dren were waiting for him to
get home from bis work, and
(ell on a table in the living
room - too badly defaced,
probably, to be useful as evidence.
fpHlS awful deed prompts an
- adaptation of an ancient
question:
Can any good EVER come
out of Jackson - where such
a foul thing could be planned
and executed?
I1EFORE answering, read
this dispatch from Jack-
Mt. Hebo Worker
Dies of Injuries
son, Miss., which appeared in
Friday's newspapers:
"The apparently successful
transplanting of a healthy
lung to a 58-year-old man has
been disclosed by surgeons of
the University Medical Center
here.
"The hospital team that per
formed the operation said the
transplant, believed to be the
first ever performed, was
made Tuesday and the patient
was reported doing well after
the three-hour operation.
"The surgeons said they re
placed a cancerous lung witli
a. healthy lung FROM AN
UNRELATED DONOR."
Let us Americans not snipe
at our staunch British allies
in this, their darkest hour. Let
us remember that they are, at
heart, a good, decent, hard
working people. Even though
frightfully oversexed.
And if British Cabinet Min
isters wish to chase scantily
clad girls around swimming
pools (on their own time), let
us strive to be broad-minded.
Let us not make the mistake
of judging these hot-blooded
Englishmen by our own more
highly developed moral stand
ards. Let us try to make al
lowances for their culture.
Loose - laced though it may
be.
For only from this detached
viewpoint, I feelj can we
properly seek balanced an
swers to the grave internation
al questions now being raised
in the responsible American
press. Such as: "What Did the
Russian Naval Officer Really
Want from Christine Keelor?"
(Food for thought, here.) "Can
We Share Atom Secrets with
Miss Keeler?" (You know how
flighty young girls are.) Or,
most crucial of all: "Will
Prime Minister MacMillan
Now Tumble?" (And, I'm sure
newspaper readers want to
know, for whom?)
'
Let us, along with the ex
perts, address ourselves to this
last crucial question. There
can be no denying the Con
servative party is in acute
trouble, as we experts say. at
home.
Indeed, let us visualize Mr.
IVHICH is to say:
' Someone in Jackson, Mis
sissippi, not even a relative,
was willing to GIVE ONE OF
HIS LUNGS to a fellow hu
man being in the hope that
the gift would SAVE THE
LIFE of the recipient of the
gift.
' retorted Burrows.
11 f HAT shall we say of that?
Let's go back to the Scrip
ture - John II:
"The day following. Jesus
would go forth into Galilee,
and findcth Philip, and saith
unto him. Follow me.
"Now Philip was of Bcthes
da, the city of Andrew and
Peter.
"Philip findth Nathaniel,
and saith unto him: We have
found him of whom Moses U
the law and the prophets did
write, Jesus of Nazareth, in
whom there is no guile.
i "And Nathaniel said unto
hinvCan there be any good
thing come out of Nazareth?

-
LETS put it this way:
In the wicked city of Jack

as the shooting from ambush
of Mcdgar Evers could be
committed, there was a man
willing to give one of his
lungs to another man in the
hope that he might be saved
