Southern leaders react to Sweatt ruling in school desegregation
Georgia Governor Herman Talmadge condemned the Supreme Court decisions as a challenge to Southern traditions while leaders across the region hailed the rulings as progress toward equal facilities. The verdicts require admitting Negro students to all white or segregated programs where facilities are unequal and ban racial segregation on railroad dining cars. Major states face suits and funding calls as officials weigh compliance and future integration steps.
