Beckwith: "If men were a fourth m good
we wouldn't have any problems in
America? --
But to most of his neighbors in this log-
shmuded Chattanoop suburb, the man
accused of killing civil rights activist
Medpr Evers is little more than a quiet
eccentric who hung a Confederate ag
outside his front door and who now is
bringing a bad name to their town.
_Says Joseph Wagier, a Signal Moun-tain lawyer who's lived here 73 years: e's ust a poor old fellow who's out of

But the image

mQuth_
We need to re-establish a con-
federate state of America as a white
Christian republic. We don't need
any dark-skinned, yellow-skinned
or blue-skinned mongrels running
it," Beckwith says.
Beckwith was arrested on a fu-
. I lgitive warrant from Hinds County,
Miss., on Monday and was being
held in the Hamilton County, 'Ienn.,
jail Monday -night. Facing an ar-

gerprint was found on the sight of
the rie, which was discarded near
the scene.
He was tried twice for murder in
1964. Two all-white juries were un-
able to reach a verdict and mistrials
were declared. The murder charge
against Beckwith was dismissed in
1969. .

that the state Sovereignty Commis-sion had investigated prospectiveir.
- home in Sigfiaf Mountain. just northjurors and reported its ndings todefense attorneys in Beckwitl-i'ssecond trial.
The 1956 Legislature created thecommission to preserve and pro-mote segregation. In its heyday ofthe 1960s, it spied on and harassedcivil righm workers.
Hinds County Jackson! DistrictAttomey Ed Peters said the jury-tampering question may make itpossible to try Beckwith again.The new indictment could im-prove race relations in Mississippiand help the state's national image,educators and black leaders said.It can be good, and it can bebad. It opens old wounds, certainly.But it brings some salvation to per-.sons who thought he would neverbe brought to trial," said AaronHenry, president of the Mississippichapter of the NAACP. I think it could have positiveeffects nationally," said John Mars-zalek, a history professor at Mist-sippi State University."That was a heinous crime. I justcan't believe that, in I990, therewould be anyone who would defendanything like that happening.Evers 57-year-old widow Myr-lie. now a city commissioner in LosAngeles. said the slaying is an in-ner part of me that still hurts, thatstill bleeds, that is still very raw."Following the murder, she andher three- children ew severaltimes to New York for psychiatric
treatment.
She said the pain proved toomuch to stay on in Mississippi. Wecouldn't stay in that house becauseof the memories there," she said.Every time you walked out thefront door you could see Medga.r'sbod!; and blood. It was hard, veryha:-d.{'
l92-I Beckwith has maintained he isinnocent. But his philosophy per-mits no room for blacks, Jews,Asians or any race other thanwhite. .
There are only three kinds ofpeople that live in Mississippi," hesaid in_an interview Sunday at his
of Chattanooga. Whites, coloredand trash, and there's very littletrash in Mississippi."
I-Ie delivered his lectures in apair of comfortable khakis, whitesocks and loafers one momentsitting on a sofa waving his arms toillustrate a point, the next standingto burst forth with another charac-terization of all people who are notwhite, right and on the Christianside of every issue.
Other Beckwithisms:I The U.S. income tax is aJewish, anti-Christian, commu-nist" tax.
I Labor unions are about aspopular as niggers in white
churches."
I AlDS is as contagious as thecommon cold. Anyone who tellsyou different is lying. I don't carewhat Jewish university they camefrom."
I -Fifty percent of the RomanCatholic bishops and priests arequeer. Hell, everybody knowsthat"
I-Iis health deteriorating, he saidhe's more concerned about his cir-culatory system than a possiblemurder indictment. ABeckwith was released Fridayfrom the Veterans AdministrationMedical Center in Nashville, Tenn.,after undergoing surgery for a clotin his carotid artery.
I don't feel good. I don't heargood. I don't see good." Beckwithsaid. I'm getting a cataract in myright eye and that's my shooting
eye."
Beckwith is not at a loss whenasked to explain why the 27-year-old case has been revived.The niggers have run out ofsomething to do," he said. '_

Jackson Police Station which is in the same building
as the Municipal Court.
"As I was walking I saw three uniformed
officers of the Jackson Police Department, whom I can
not identify or describe, looking outgaawindow at me,Wm.92..T-ni; 2--

at the parking lot entrance. .
"We were told by a police officer, uniformed,
of the Jackson Police Department, that we could not
get in to the trial because the court room was filled n
and that we would have to go across the street to
stand. This street is Pascagoula Street.- We crossed
the street and were told by the same officer,; whom I
would recognize if I saw him again, that we must standbehind the sidewalk on the North side of the street,
which borders a parking lot.
"We obeyed these instructions and stood there
for about ten minutes when two of the defendants
crossed the street at S. West and Pascagoula. At thistime there were about 100 or more Negroes in this area
together and a larger number of whites were in other
areas of the parking lot near to Justice of the Peace
Bell's office. ~
"At this time I would like to state that I
parked my car in one parking lot as described and across
the street there is another parking lot in the rear of
the Mississippi Publishing Company building. The nlatter lot is where we were standing at»this;time.=****
"As the students crossed the street and
walked toward the Municipal Court Building many of theNegroes applauded in a spontaneous recognition.
"At this point, which was at about 3:45 PM I
heard an officer yell "disperse them" and at this timetwo police dogs were used to disperse the Negroes while
at the same time "billy" clubs were being used. The
dogs were on long leashes held by officers who werewearing white shirts. t
