Parochial schools rowovers archbishop residence briefed
Mother continued from page one and picketed the archbishop's residence last week hours before he ordered an end to segregation in parochial schools next fall. The chancery offered no comment beyond calling the letter a paternal admonition. State leaders criticized U S District Shelly Wright's ruling muting the desegregation of lean schools through the sixth grade and outlawing application Louisiana's pupil placement in New Orleans. Wright’s decision aligned with twelve Negroes who held the court that the New Orleans School Board was not complying with an original order to desegregate schools with all deliberate speed. Late Rep. John Garrett condemned Wright's ruling as cowardly and said it leaves enforcement to others. Garrett chairs the state legislative committee on segregation formed to preserve segregation practices.
