National leaders voice support for Wallace as desegregation tensions rise
Cabinet members pledged pride in Wallace's leadership as they re dedicate themselves to constitutional government amid a critical period. In Jackson, Mississippi, the NAACP asked a federal judge to overturn a state injunction banning racial demonstrations and to order police to halt arrests of peaceful protesters. A federal jury acquitted two men charged with assaulting a U.S. marshal during the University of Mississippi riot, while three $250,000 DOJ suits by Arkansas detainees were dismissed for official-immunity. Union postal workers protested promotions of Black colleagues in Dallas. Over 20 Black demonstrators were arrested in Savannah in a new push to desegregate downtown eateries. A Danville grand jury opened an inquiry into racial demonstrations. In Tallahassee, 13 Black students sought service in a white cafeteria and faced denial. Desegregation also reached Houston parks and pools.

School Funds Are Out Again In Prince Edward County
FARMVILLE Va AP The Prince Edward County board heard six speakers urging reopening of public schools and then adopted a budget with no funds for school operations. Unless court action occurs before September the county will enter its fifth year without public schools, a result of the 1959 closure to avoid integration. The county, part of the 1954 desegregation decision, has white children in a private segregated system while about 1,500 Negro pupils lack formal schooling unless they attend elsewhere.
