THE “SPECTATOR’S” COLUMN
William Jennings Bryan Dorn is a statesman and repre
sents a district from South Carolina in the Congress of the
United States. Mr. Dorn did me a favor by sending a copy
of the speech by Representative Louis C. Wyman of New
Hampshire.
I quote it in part. Mr. Dorn regards this as the ablest
speech on the subject he heard in Congress.
“Mr. Wayman. Mr. Speaker, there is no need for all the
troubles we are having throughout America with civil
rights. Negroes and whites can get along together in this
Nation. They wan to. The vast majority of our citizens of
whatever color feel this way. They resent the violence, the
bloodshed, the hatreds and the distortions that are the trade
mark of extremist groups og both races. What then is the
difficulty ?
It is that the present administration and its immediate
predecessor have deliberately injected race relations into the
political arena. The President of the United States seeks pol
itical gain by supporting this unsound and unconstitutional
legislation. The civil rights bill now before us gives to the
Federal government the power to deny important civil rights
of all Americans.
This civil rights bill is sloppy legislation. Its draftsman
ship is poor, its meanings doubtful and its unconstitutional
ity obvious in at least two titles.
A vote for this bill, now 20 pages longer than the mon
strosity that passed a submissive House on February 10, is
not evidence of greatness of leaderhip. It is evidence of a
demoralized congress. Voting for this bill and thus creating
a Federal police state s an outrght surrender of the constitu
tional rights of all Americans to freedom in their private
lives. It is abject abdication of congressional responsibility
to preserve and protect the constitutionally required Federal-
State balance in the face of political pressures such as Con
gress has never faced before; and knowing that the U. S.
Supreme Court has, by its decisions, tortured the Constitu
tion out o fall rational historical proportion in disregard of
the will of Congress and the intent of the Founding Fathers
in the fields of law enforcement, sedition, religion, appor
tionment, civil rights, and what have you. Only Congress re
mains to protect the constitutional rights of our people.
A vote for this legislation is not a vote to be proud of, for
it is a vote to undermine the Constitution of the United
States. Perhaps in November the voters will elect a Congress
with a majority that will stand firmly for upholding the
clearly written mandates of the Constitution of the United
States, even if the Supreme Court of the United States does
not do so. Then perhaps at long last we can start this Nation
on the governmental road upward from the depths of the
near anarchy that judicial license and congressional indif
ference have ler us into at this hour, tow r ard a stable consti
tutional government once again. Perhaps all this is too much
to hope for, but it is certainly something worth fighting for.
Stripped of its political hyprocrisy, this bill is a naked grasp
for extreme Federal power over private business and lives
of private citizens in the several states. In respect to public
accommodations and equal employment opportunity, there is
not single w r ord in the Constitution to support such Federal
control. This legislation, in the name of civil rights, takes
more civil rights away from all Americans than it confers on
any minority group.
I regard this as a clear statement of Constitutional rights
in a day of nebulous thinking or wishful dreaming. The
greatest menace to us Americans is the arrogant presump
tion of the Supreme Court of the United States.

: THE
: MANION \
: FORUM ;
If you are wondering what is wrong with the education
your children are getting in our public schools, you can find
a lot of answers by reading some of the text books which are
the basis of their education.
Some time ago a textbook evaluation committee organized
by a group know nas “America’s Future, Inc.” did just this
and they discovered some alarming facts about these books
and the effect they are having upon our children’s education.
For example, a number of graduating seniors in a leading
State University, who were majoring in education, and were
ready to go out to teach children, were asked what they
knew about the United States Constitution. Some of the
answers were: “I know that a copy used to hang in every
school room, but I never read it. I think ten men signed it.”
“The framing of the Constitution was in the 1880’s.”
A lextbook on American history widely used, stated: “No
other President in American history has every earned the
epithat—despot, tyrant, dictator, more justly than Lincoln
did between April and July, 1861.”
The tendency, and obviously the purpose of this type of
education of our very young, is to downgrade our great he
roes and to impress upon them the need for a world govern
ment.
In the evaluation of some 300 textbooks used in public
schools, less than a fourth of them qualified by the com
mittee for adequate coverage of Americanism and private
enterprise.
Instead of giving these young citizens a solid background
in the history and traditions of our own country, we find
an increasing trend toward treating American history very
lightly and laying heavy stress upon world history and world
government. Such subjects as “Citizens of the World”;
“World Citizenship”; “World Citizenship and Aspects of
World Government’ are being taught in elementary and high
school classes, which give very little time to the teaching of
our own American Government and citizenship.
Professors and instructors in colleges which prepare
young people for the teaching profession do not always agree
with the way they are being prepared, but they are helpless
todo anything to oppose it. If they raise a voice in protest
and if they insist upon giving “equal time” to instilling some
patriotism and Americanism into the courses being taught
these future teachers, they are usually relieved of their du
ties or transferred to some other position where these theor
ies will not reach the teaching profession.
Most of the older people in this country were well trained
in American history and we respected our heroes who made
this country great and preserved is for the coming genera
tions. It will take only one generation of citizens trained to
downgrade all that our history has taught for many decades
to bring us to the acceptance of a world government in place
of our national sovereignty that we have so long cherished.
That generation is being indoctrinated now and will soon
have passed the point of re-education in our own important
history.
This is a not-so-secret weapon being used to accomplish a
take over of America by our enemies without a single shot.

Parr speaks on
civil rights
James Nance Parr, attorney of
Newberry, was guest speaker
when the Newberry County Med
ical Auxiliary met at the home of
Mrs. Gurnie Summer Monday with
Mrs. Ralph Baker as hostess. Mrs.
Kemper Lake, president, presided
during the business session.
A motion was made and carried
that Auxiliary members collect
drug samples to be sent to needy
countries. This project has been
carried out successfully by many
Auxiliaries. The group also ad
opted the project of making hos
pital jackets from men’s worn
shirts. The Newberry County
Cancer Society has expressed a
desire to have these shirts in their
loan closet.
Mrs. Baker, program chaorman,
introduced Mr. and Mrs. Parr. Mr.
Parr is a member of the law firm
of Harley and Parr. The program
was on legislation, and Mr. Parr
chose as his subject the legisla
tion which has been recognized as
the greatest issue currently: “A
Study of the 1964 Civil Rights
Act.”
Mr. Parr reviewed in detail each
of the 11 titles of the Act, going
more thoroughly into the sections
popularly referred to as voting
rights, desegregation of federally-
assisted programs, public or tax-
supported facilities, public educa
tion equal employment opportun
ity, desegregation of certain pri
vately owned establishments pro
viding accommodations to the
public.
Of special interest were those
terms of the Act for various means
of enforcement.
In concluding the discussion,
commenting on the importance of
the legislation, Mr. Parr stated:
“This legislation, more particularly
those titles relating to privately-
owned businesses and employment,
is a basic departure from not
only the concept of constitutional
legal principles but from the prin
ciples of the Common Law—that
basic structure of law through
which we have governed ourselves
so that we may each be protected
from the other; the framework of
law and government which was
calculated to assure to each in
dividual the greatest measure of
freedom. No one can comprehend
what the final effect this act will
have on individual freedom. There
are those among its proponents
who liken it to Magna Carta and
Habeas Corpus. To me it is the
antithesis of these and other
historic Acts which laid the foun
dation for and sought to preserve
to each of us our fredom. When
the ‘gives’ and ‘takes’ of this act
are balanced one against the other
it becomes a force-bill, not a free
dom bill. There is no question that
for certain groups it provides re
lief; however, in my humble op
inion, even as those who claim
a gain, through the door which
this Act has opened will march
measures which will stamp out
their gains and freedoms. It is
an Act from whish we will all
suffer in times to come.”
At the conclusion of this very
interesting program, Mr. and Mrs.
Parr were guests of the Auxiliary
at a delicious luncheon.

Many attracted
to state parks
COLUMBIA, Oct. 24—Fall color
is attracting many visitors to state
parks and other areas in the
mountains of South Cai-olina, ac
cording to State Park Director
E. R. Vreeland.
Nature is putting on a display
of art and color in the mountains
and piedmont, while at the sea
shore “Indian Summer” is in evi
dence. Frost and heavy rains in
the mountains have caused many
leaves to fall already, but visitors
report that colors are quite vivid
in some areas.
Fishing is usually better in the
fall months than at any other time
of the year. Picnicking is partic
ularly enjoyable on bright clear
fall days, and the outdoor cooking
fire is pleasant, with its warming
glow. Food tastes better on a
picnic any time of the year, but
the fall weather makes it even
more inviting.
The fall months offer an ex
cellent opportunity to get better
acquainted with your state parks,
and the park superintendents will
have more time to devote to show
ing you the parks and their fac
ilities, said Mr. Vreeland.
