Broad Segregation Laws Under Study
Montgomery reports sweeping new measures in Alabama aimed at preserving segregation. Bills seek to bar Negro enrollment in colleges, allow cities to dispose of public leisure facilities, and empower railways to refuse riders who ignore rules. Resolutions press the Supreme Court to modify desegregation orders and fund transport of Negroes out of the South. Existing laws target keeping Negroes from white schools below college level and firing teachers who advocate integration. A proposed constitutional amendment would let parents choose whether their children attend integrated or segregated classes. The drive follows violence at the University of Alabama after Autherine Lucy’s enrollment and expulsion.
