mon sense the Orleans Parish SchoolBoard last week brushed aside an at-tempted road block of citizens of thecommunity interested in discussing theproblems of desegregation in a calm andintelligent way in a public school audi-
torium. By a 4 to 1 vote a citizens groupwas permitted by the Board to schedule aseries of public forums on desegregation ofschools. The first public forum was heldlast Thursday night at Rabouin School Au-ditorium. The Rev. Allen Hackett, pastorof the Pilgrim Congregational Church ofSt. Louis, spoke on how that communityprepared itself for racial integration in.the
schools. _t was most refreshing to hear an kic-pélssion of positive, intelligent and c n-s ctive views on how a more mature com-munity met the problem. After the sicken-ing daily dose of claptrap from guberna-torial candidates knuckling under for
votes on how they are going to organ-ize," defy and "ignore" the UnitedStates Supreme Court in this matter theRev. Hackett was all the more interesting
and made a whole lot more sense.A quick comparison of what the guber-natorial candidates say on this subject andwhat the Rev. Hackett said give a keeninsight as to why people generally have solittle faith in politicians; why so few menof integrity are candidates for public of-
fice. .The Rev. Hackett told a most interestingstory of 'how _the whole community, beingcomposed largely of law abiding and in-telligent citizens with the will and deter-mination, accomplished the job of integra-ti with a minimum of incidents bec ' .etilrre was a maximum of cooperation nd
good will.

erez has !nore'influence'than the_Arch-"Eisliop. For the past three weeks Cmlic
parishioners have publicly opposed the
A1-chbishops announced plans of integrab
ing Catholic schools in '56. Maybe they
fear ex-communication from Perez's high
command more so than from the Arch-
bishop.
The New Orleans story is particularly in-
teresting, for before all the talk about in-
tegration, most of us thought compara-
tively speaking!, we had a pretty fair com-
munty-race relations wise. Now we are
not so sure. The Race Hate? boys have
obviously been working overtime prepar-ing the community for a total breakd?wn
in race relations.
The best thing that could have hap-
pened to New Orleans is the inauguration
o_f the Citizen's Forum on Integration.
Maybe we'll get out of the rut and shake
off the peddlers of race hate who are crip-
pling our fair city. We need to get out
into the sunshine of peace and good will
to all mankind. People of character, in-
telligence and good will are not led around
b__ the nose by a handful of racial bigots.Vtge are on the side of God and the lain.
L ts act accordingly. F

the high court usurped powers
not granted it by the Constitu-

consider any part" of-evidencepresented by the school board.
t He added that an order for New
Orleans schools to stop segrega-

the law. An injunction. Perez
said. must take ettect immediate-

Pet-ez.said. "we won't have ashowdown." "
He said he would be willing to
stand such charges it he could
find any school board that would

said, would convict a man tor

people.
In referring to recent Catholic
action against segregation, Perez
said the Communists have in-

l-lis statement in full follows:
Front page publicity is given
in the afternoon States to 'a
statement from the lllaijed
States attorney general office
in Washington and New Orleans
that complaints by Plaquemines parish citizens evidently 'a
couple of disgruntled, defeatedparish candidates with Chep
Morrison's blessings! were
made regarding absentee voting
in the Dec. 5 primary election
in Plaquemines parish showingaltotal of 640 absentee ballots
cast. -
_ "Unfortunately. mote. absen-
tee ballots were not cast in
Plaquemines parish because
more than 1000 qualified electors
in Plaquemines parish failed to
vote, many of whom were out
of the parish on election day.
The absentee ballots were
cast by a large number oi
Plaquemines parish voters, who
are engaged in, offshore oil and
sulphur operations outside theparish and some who are in the
military service, besides others
who are employed elsewhere
and who expected to be out of
the parish on election day.
URGED T0 VOTE IAN. 0
_ "Under Louisiana law voters
who expect to be out of the
parish on election day have a
right to~ vote absentee. This
right cannot be denied them by
a few- sore heads who may
make oomplaints- "to federal
government agents. the same as
they made complaints to the
New Orleans district attorney's
office before the first primary
election. with the evident pur-th parish Democratic comnu ee.[issued a statement defending the pose of frightening qualifiedvoters from exercising their!
right.to vote. _ _ Y 4 . 1
"We do not fear any in Hsti-'
gation by federal a ya.
Our parish absentee ballots arepreserved as required by state
law by the clerk of court. exi
officio parish custodian of voting
mlehlnes. If any federal at-
torney desires to see them. the
clerk of court will be glad to_
make them available so they
may be checked against the oi-
ficial tabulation of votes cast
in the first primary. . '
"We again urge all voters in
Plaquemines parish who expect
to be out of the parish on elec-
tion day Jan. 9, and who may
lose their right to vote if they}
do not vote absentee to be sure ;
to vote absentee and to vote;
solidly against Chep Morrison
with his Jimmie Hoffa-NAACP
Negro bloc combination.
"Plaquemines parish s d
be solidly against this sin terg

declared." _ g
