from Chris Arthur (Oxford)
Southern diehards in the US have launched the last-ditch offensive with a warning against tho “amalgamation and mongrelisation of the races" from Senator 2. Russell. He said he was still waiting for evidence to prove "a mongrslised race" had beon capable of creating civilisation, He protested against legislation under threat of civil disobedience and with romarkable honesty expressed his real fears by complaining “ventually the mob will be demanding that the wealth of this nation be divi* 4 wp equally on Saturday night." Referring to white southerners he said the rights of the minority had been “ruthlossly trampled underfoot."
