The Rebel Record The Celina, 0., Daily Standard recently printed ah editorial reviewing the past year at Ole Miss. We reprint it here, verbatim, as we feel that it is indicative of thinking concerning the rights of man. We have just received, from the University of Mississippi in Oxford, a seven-page brochure titled: Rebel Record of Quality, Integrity and Progress for the 1962-63 Academic Year.” The publication purports to list every notable event involving the university from September of 1962 until May of 1963. Among the items listed are: “. . . Sister M. Panchita Wesley first Catholic nun in history of University to be enrolled full-time in School of Education doctoral program . . . Rebels defeat Kentucky Wildcats in Jackson . . . Gastric freezing begun at University Medical Center ... Alumni Association announces series of football open house parties . . . Art students hold Christmas Bazaar . . . University Players and Department of Music present ‘Kiss Me Kate’ in three-night run.” Not mentioned anywere in this Record of Quality, Integrity and Progress is the fact that James Meredith, during the 1962-63 school year, integrated the University of Mississippi. THIS CURIOUS omission can be explained, we think, by examining the text of an address given earlier this year by University of Mississippi Chancellor John Williams before the Commonwealth Club of California in San Francisco. The address, titled, “The University and Integration,” was intended to explain what, how and why violence and death accompanied James Meredith to Oxford. And, by and large, it did just that. Williams first recalled specific events that preceded Meredith’s arrival on campus. These involved conflicting pressures exerted upon the university’s Board of Trustees by a state government bent on preserving segregation and a federal government committed to integration. Though never mentioned by name, Mississippi Governor Ross Barnett, according to Williams’ viewpoint, looms as the villain of the piece. And rightfully so. Much of the speech was general, dealing with American history and the Southern Way of Life, attempting 'to explain the widely held “it can’t happen here” attitude shared by most Mississippians in preMeredith days. “The Civil War,” Williams said, “is not so far away from us in Mississippi ... A defeated and pillaged people do not easily forget. The bitterness of that defeat was burned into our memory by the savage rule ... of the Reconstruction era. Jealousy and a certain distrust of the federal government exist throughout this country. It is an established fact of political life in Mississippi and the rest of the Deep South.” Williams vividly described “a social pattern of the complete separation of races” and asked: “What else was the average Mississippian to be lieve when he read nothing else in his newsr. papers, when he heard little else from his political leaders?” It is possible, after reading Williams’ words, to view the Oxford tragedy from a new aspect, to feel more sad than outraged at the spectacle of Americans rioting in defense of injustice, to accept the thesis that a man who has never been taught cannot fairly be expected to learn. - ■ (Concluded Tomorrow)

U. S. Investment In Viet Nam Is Shaky
EDITORS NOTE — More than 14,000 military personnel and billions of dollars have been poured into the struggle against communism in South Viet Nam. Now this vast investment is threatened by unrest within that little Asia nation and by policy differences between Washington and Saigon. The following dispatch by UPl’s chief Washington diplomatic reporter explains the stakes and tells how this country became involved.) By STEWART HENSLEY United Press International WASHINGTON (UPD — “I do not want to hear any more about Indochina!” The speaker was not — as you might imagine from reading today’s headlines — John F. Kennedy. Rather it was Franklin D. Roosevelt. The time was more than a score of- years. ago.. And the exasperated statement was aimed at Roosevelt’s military chiefs who had been pressing him for policy guidance on the area. Paradoxically, the authority for the quotation is Dean Rusk, then an obscure Army colonel in the Far East and now, as secretary o< state, the man with prime responsibility for U.S. policy in South Viet Nam. Face Tough Decisions Rusk and his present chief. President Kennedy, sometimes must feel like echoing Roosevelt’s remark. But history and the march of" cotnmunism in Asia have hemmed them in and demanded agonizing decisions. The United States is deeply committed to continue supporting South Viet Nam in a frustrating campaign, fought in the jungles and rice paddies against elusive Communist guerrilas. American officials believe a Communist victory could open the floodgates for a Red tide Which would eventually engulf the remainder of Southeast Asia. The U.S. commitment in Viet Nam involves $1.5 million a day in military and economic aid and 14,000 American troops advising and fighting alongside South Vietnamese. As sometimes happens, the ally
with whom the United States must work is a dictator whose repressive actions against his own people frequently embarrasses Washington. The United States has publicly assailed the violent attacks by the secret police of President Ngo Dinh Diem’s Catholic-dominated government on Buddhist temples and the arrests of thousands of monks, nuns and students. But how much farther can Washington go? Withdrawals of U.S. support might result in chaos and Communist victory. Diem is a stubborn man and some officials believe he would rather die than give in to U.S. demands for political reform, which he insists are impossible as long as the fighting continues. Attracted Red Attention With U.S. military and economic aid ordered by President Dwight -D. - Eisenhower, Die m made enough progress to attract the all-out attention of the North Vietnnamese Reds. With moral and material support from Red China Communist guerrillas began the long and bitter effort to overthrow Diem. The United States increased its support for Diem’s regime as the Red attacks mounted. When President Kennedy assumed office in 1961, some of his advisers favored direct American military intervention to turn the tide. But after a survey by Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor, then a special presidential adviser and now chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, it was decided the better course would be to supply more military aid. It also was agreed to send jungle-wise U. S. Army Rangers into South Viet Nam as “instructors.” Forces Have Increased These forces, many of whom have engaged in actual combat when necessary — have increased from 2.000 in January, 1962, to more than 14,000 at present. In 1955, when Diem was consolidating his precarious hold on South Viet Nam, he ruthlessly suppi essed military units of various religious sects attempting to take advantage of the chaos. After the Taylor mission, how-
ever, Diem agreed to various political economic and social reforms which the Kennedy administration felt were necessary to win popular support for the antiCommunist war among the South Vietnamese. He made some gestures, but they fell short of Washington’s hopes. Evdn so, steady progress in the anti-Communist fight heartened Kennedy and his aides until the sudden attacks on Buddhists focused world attention on the somewhat less than perfect democracy in Saigon. While Buddhist complaints stemmed originally from alleged discrimination by the Catholic minority, their protests soon became the focus for long-smouldering discontent among intellectuals and other Vietnamese elements. Aware Os Shortcomings The Kennedy administration is well aware of the shortcomings of Diem and his government. It is also aware that his actions have' tarnished the image of his chief supporter, the United States. It would like him to get rid of his brother and chief adviser, Ngo Dinh Nhu, who heads the secret police and is blamed for the excesses of the regime. Washington would like to see political and social reforms. There is some doubt, however, just how much pressure Washington can exert — even with the leverage of its massive military aid — without precipitating a break with Diem which would benefit only the Communists. This is the question'’ Kennedy and his top advisers are wrestling with at this point.

Woman Strangled In Greater Boston Area SALEM, Mass. (UPI) — Police today investigated the strangling of a 50-year-old divorcee, the ninth in a series of such crimes which have spread a wave of fear among women who live along in the Greater Boston area. The body of Mrs. Evelyn Corbin was found sprawled across the bed in her apartment Sunday . Two nylon stoockings were knotted around her neck. The victim was clad in a negligee, a bathrobe and white socks. Police said her garments were in disarray but it was not known whether she had been sexually attacked. A 41-year-old man, who had dated Mrs. Corbin as recently as Saturday night, was questioned, police said. The strangling was similar in several respects to the eight others which began June 14, 1962. The killer used a stocking in four of the other murders. Lt. John .Donovan, chief of the Boston homicide squad which was called into the case, was asked ii Mrs. Corbin’s slaying could be linked with the others attributed to a “mad strangler.” “The woman’s dead. There’s a stocking around her neck. That’s similarity enough,” he said.
