" fe ' ?;. m Et& m&k ? r * < f Saturday JSSS. 19S7^-_? thoughts.; Prior to_ May J 7, 1954, when have we of South Carolina heard concern expressed about the calibre of man appointed supreme court justice? Let us not now be confused by shady references1 to history?for these writers are not historians; let Us7not-~be misled by their frequent quoting of law procedures?they are not basicly students^ of law. They are egotistic economic minded would be capitilists who are so unee'rtain of their individual abilities to succeed that they feel "obliged to maintain ' human stepping stones to successN egroes - - jn - order to insure a steady supply of mint juleps and yachts, and to act as acceptable effaroments of their ineptr.ess and : economic stupid it y;;"'" " ' " So now they blate about how the Supreme Court is mistreating them,. "We're trying," they cry. "Look at our school buildings.' They are without parallel throughout the nation." And "Our pigres q Vn inn* rinnrxlo T aaL* au? effective their vote has been in recent elections." "And. look," they yelp sanctimoniously.' "how happy our nitres are. They haye nice 'homes, new cars and every one you see wears ,a big smile." What they neglect to say is that the new school?buildings were beaten out of them by the threat of just such a decision as the Supreme Court rendered in the Clarendon - County Case; that* "" he right to vote for Negroes came only after they had been soundly licked after having tried every practical and Impractical subterfuge they could think of in the George Elmore Case, and that Negroes o\Vn homes'and automobiles only liecause they have learned that when dealing with the white man one needs lie as practical as possible. As for that big smrle, mat tney snouia not nave mentioned, for it is a smile which says with the Jogic of ages "white man, have your day for I shall certainly have mine." AT OTHKR TIMES WE ARE - COMPASIOXATE . . Freedom, wise men oft say, always. carries with it obligation? . and responsibility. The man who declares himself ready for freedom, then, at the same time declares himself ready to accept N'o society has ever been so impartial iit its handling: of its members as to have escaped the s>r-a ganization within its structure of classes and groups. This is a characteristic of human nature. We, admittedly, are members of a very separate and distinct group. We also have declared ourselves ready . for freedom. It follows, then, that we are glso ready to accept our social responsibilities, whether they come to us as members, of the society or as'members of a group. Last Sunday night a young white policeman, of whom I know nothing except what has been re ported in the daily paper?, was shot to death by a Negro while in the process of making an arrest * in the line of duty. This officer, a ymmtr-mart himself, leaves widowed and fatherless a wife and four small child- -?*?? ren. Like it or not, the bleakness^ of the future these five people now face was creates! through the acts of a person who is a member of our group and for whom we have declared ourselves ready to be responsible. " To these who lead us and cry out our impatience at continued restrictions, I suggest that you begin an immediate drive to raise funds?not to pay for the lost of a father, but as an indication of >ur uiyproclaimed leadinesj for reedom. v ' _ i ' a
