Tear Gas Breaks Up North Carolina School Boycott
SWANQUARTER NC AP Police used tear gas Friday to disperse about 100 demonstrators mainly teens protesting a county Welfare Department decision that could end their two month school boycott. Sheriff Cahoon said officers ordered them to leave the welfare office, then used gas when they refused. Spokesman James Barrow said protesters oppose welfare aid tied to school enrollment. Golden Frinks of the SCLC organized the boycott, now about 800 pupils, amid claims of unequal desegregation plans. Barrow noted alleged use of gas and clubs by officers and locals, which Cahoon denied, stating only his unit and a few troopers acted. The protest is part of several in the town, with planned nonviolent actions unless welfare policy changes.
