DK \FT T.O SIX)\V PLEA ATLANTA, March 7.—(UP) —Alabama legislators today drafted a “go slow" plea, warring the U. S. Supreme Court of a danger of civil strife from forcing the South to desegregate too hastily. The Alabama Senate received a House-passed resolution asking the court "to permit the white and colored races in the South to live together in peace and harmony." The proposed resolution, intended as an official appeal to the Supreme Court, cites the Autherine Lucy riots at the University of Alabama as evidence of potential danger. The University of Alabama has made a bona fide attempt to carry out the decree of the court and in so doing has found it impossible at this time with imminent danger of civil strife," the resolution said.
