Lawmakers Move to Arm Faubus With School Closure Powers
In Arkansas, legislators plan measures to empower Gov. Faubus to close Central High School if the federal government seeks to integrate it. The proposed bill would require closing the school if integration is ordered by courts or enforced by force, as the NAACP seeks an immediate Supreme Court ruling. Faubus warns against delay and cites potential violence, referencing 1957 events and ongoing efforts to preserve peace.
