Sen. Sam J. Ervin Jr. aligns with Gov. Luther Hodges and others urging voluntary segregation to bypass the Supreme Court ruling against compulsory school segregation. He argues it would allow both races to solve the problem in goodwill while condemning the Court as eroding constitutional authority. He claims segregation stems from a political freedom to choose associates and criticizes the view of racial bigotry, urging acceptance of state oaths to the Constitution.
