Ike not fully advised on problem of integration says NAACP
NAACP chief Thurgood Marshall said President Eisenhower’s remarks on school integration show he is not fully advised on the issue. He noted Nixon’s stance on individual rights and recalled Nixon’s Africa trip remarks about democracy vs discrimination. Eisenhower said slower integration may be possible and reaffirmed the 1954 Supreme Court ruling as law. Faubus commented that if the court upholds a cooling off period, easing integration in 1961 would depend on community attitudes.
