Newspaper Page TextMEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORO, OREGON Tactics Changed In Integration of Southern Schools THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 12, 193 By AL KUETTXER LPI Correspondent The Justice department has learned a lot since the days of Oxford, Miss., last September. This fact began, to dawn in the way the department handled its role in the desegregation of the University of Alabama in June. Tuesday, Atty. Gen. Robert Kennedy's agency had its smoothest operation yet in the maneuvers which put Negroes into the public schools in Ala bama. The key official of the depart ment in Oxford, Tuscaloosa and Birmingham was former law professor Nicholas Katzenbach. Scholarly "Nick" Katzenbach is the attorney general's right nana man on civil rights. Working with him, however, is quite a team of experts in their own right - among them Burke Marshall, John Doar and Joseph Dolan. Reporters who cover the civil rights beat in the South see them everywhere. In Oxford, the Justice depart ment moved in with all flags flying. More than 500 U.S. mar shals helped bring James H. Meredith, a Negro, to the cam pus of the University of Missis sipps. Katzenbach and company were right in the line of fire and and "Nick" for long hours served as a front line comman der for his beleaguered orange- jacketed marshals. When the University of Ala bama desegregation came, the Justice department tactics had changed perceptibly. The work was quiet, behind t h e scenes and thorough. On integration day, there were no marshals in sight only Katzenbach at the "college door" to meet Alabama Gov. George Wallace. Negro students were kept in the background until, after Wal lace's determined stand, the sig nal was given for federalized National Guardsmen. Birmingham pro duced an even more refined Justice de partment operation. Top offic ials were briefed before it came off. The department apparently had a big hand again behind the scenes in preparing a sweeping injunction against Wallace that was concurred in by all five district judges in the state. When the school bells rang in Birmingham, it didn't even take the National Guard to accom plish the trick. President Ken nedy on the recommendation of his brother, Robert, the attorney general, hit the Alabama gover nor with a cease and desist or der and federalized the National Guard almost with the same stroke of the pen Katzenbach, operating b e tween Birmingham and Tusca loosa, was nowhere to be seen when the historic integration event took place. When huge HAS NO OPPOSITION ALGIERS, Algeria (UP) -Only ballots bearing the name of Premier Ahmed Ben Bella will be valid in Sunday's pres idential elections, Algerian gov e r n m e n t officials announced Wednesday. Ben Bella is run ning for president unopposed un der the new Algerian constitu tion which allows only one po litical party Ben Bella's Na tional Liberation Front. and noisy demonstrations occur red at one of the three schools desegregated in Birmingham, Dolan was looking on. But the department never hit the panic button as might have happened a year ago. Police Chief Jamie Moore had given the department assurance ahead of time that his men could handle any normal amount of trouble. Dolan, con vinced he was doing it, passed the word that local authority was at work doing its job. "The Justice department did not come to Alabama to enforce integration but to enforce a federal court order," a depart ment spokesman said. Exams Announced for Civil Service Posts Examinations are now open to fill several civil service posts. Positions available are as ad ministrative assistant for per sonnel and office services, stock control clerk and general illus trator. Additional information and applications may be obtained from most post offices or from the Seattle region, U.S. civil service commission, federal of fice building, Seattle, 4, Wash.

To him we are largely indebted for the fact that we have a "government of law and not of men". The Supreme Court of (ha United States has come to play its role as head of one of the three great branches of our na tional government by methods that are different from those used by the other two branches. Since it has only "the judicial power," the Court can act and speak only as a decider of soma of the "cases and controver sies" that litigants choose to bring before couts. And sinca its primary work is that of re viewing decisions of lower courts, it can usually decide only some of the points in the cases that reach it. Umpire of System Yet within this frampwnrk nf judicial method the Supreme Court has come to perform functions of the highest impor tance in our scneme of govern ment. The Court is an umDira of our complex federal system, resolving questions of the geo graphic location of powers be tween nation and states. It is likewise an umpire within the national government, resolving questions of the organic loca tion of powers between Con gress, the Executive and tha Judiciary. It is also a defender of in dividual rights and privileges, aetimng standards of fairness as to what government may do and how it may act in areas that impinge on liberty and eaualitv. And it is a watchman over the mechanics and methods bv which many government pol icies are carried out, bringing order and facility into the ad ministrative processes. While these great functions of the Court have been evolved over the years and under many of its noted judges, it was John Marshall's role in developing them that made him "the Great Chief Justice." Landmark Case One of Marshall's most brilli ant decisions was written in 180,1 in the case of "Marbury vs. Sec retary of State Madison." Al though not the first, this is a landmark case on the power nf a court to hold an act of a legis lature unconstitutional. The is sue was whether a new federal administration could refuse In deliver judicial commissions which had been authorized and prepared by the previous.admin istration. Many political over tones were present, but Mar shall went straight to the root of the matter by declaring that the law involved was "unconsti tutional." Thus was establish ed the principle that acts of Congress cannot be enforced when in conflict with the Constitution. Without his genius, different decisions might have been rend ered and our courts might not have developed into the bul warks against legislative or ex ecutive oppression that they ara today. Chiseled above the enlranra to the U. S. Supreme Court Building are the words: "Equal Justice under Law." John Mar shall played an impressive rola in making this phrase a reality. Plat Approved (or New Subdivision The linal plat for the Home stead Acres Extension subdi vision In the Central Point area was approved by the Jackson county planning commission last night. Andrew Hawver, vice presi dent of the commission, pre sided at the session in the ab sence of C. O. Lovejoy. presi dent. In other action, the commis sion approved preliminary plats for El Rcina subdivision, north; of Beall lane and the Sun Valley subdivision in the White City area. The commission approved and referred to the county court a name change for Pacific rd. to Pacific lnne. Residents in the area had petitioned for tha change in an attempt to elimi nate confusion with Pacilic highway. Following a discussion nf sub division names and a letter from (he district attorney the group approved a request from Archie Pierce (or Sunshine Village and William Dawkins for Green Springs in the Ashland area, now known as Oak Knoll. The Oregon subdivision con trol law was discussed with the group requesting a report from the planning staff pointing out changes in the law for future study.
