East Side Race Incident and 1958 Council Debates
A vivid reminiscence of a segregation era incident in New Orleans and a critique of government spending. The author mocks the Citizens Councils, notes a council member visiting a house of ill repute where a colored girl named Anabelle is revealed, and questions military surplus waste while arguing for more prudent federal budgeting. He cites per person government spending rising from 69 dollars in 1939 to about 407 dollars, with debt of 1700 dollars per person, and calls for treating government like a business.
