Violence and tensions rise over school busing
In Austin Texas the busing of black students into white neighborhoods sparked new tensions and eight arrests on Thursday. Georgia Governor Jimmy Carter urged public officials and parents to pursue legitimate protections while avoiding forced busing. Court Justice Potrfart refused to stay a federal court order mandating desegregation. Fires at St Marys Elementary in Columbus and a related home burn raised concerns about connections to school integration. Governor Askew reiterated opposition to forced busing but supported obeying the law and opposed a constitutional ban on busing. Chief Justice Burger warned against assuming perfect racial balance in rulings, while Governor Wallace eyed a 1972 presidential bid if parties fail to stop busing. The Alabama House endorsed Wallace’s stance against busing.
