WASHINGTON (AP)-The issue of whites and Negroes attending the same public schools raged in the legislative halls and the courts today from Mississippi in the deep south to the capital.

In Mississippi, the legislature be- gan work on plans to circumvent the supreme court ruling, spurred by '12 - you - old Governor Hugh Whitefs convening message 'nies- day that, "We shall resist the de- GN011 by every legal means At our command.”

A proposed constitutional Amend- ment to Mississippi's 1890 constitu- tion empowering thc legislature to abolish public schools in A last- dltch effort to rctain segregation was introduced in both houses.

Under the proposal, state-owned school property could be leased, rented or sold to individuals for private schools it public schools are abolished. State money would b0 Ifwfobriatcd to pay tuition of pupils in the privstn system.

Possible Outcome

By FRED HAMPSON

HONG KONG (AP)-These lati- tudes have weathered many ex- plosive episodes since China fell to communism, but none has held so much dynairnltc as the Quemoy Liffair. , The complacency that folks here show toward nearby crises is lack- ing. Everybody ls worried and some are scared-not because of what the Reds may do to Chlang Kai-shek or Chlang to the Reds. but because of what the US. Navy may do. The navy. openly committed to defend Formosa, is deciding whe- ther that. means Chlang's lesser islands too. One such lesser island is Quemoy, or Kinmen, which means "Gate to the heavenly em- pire." Quemoy-them are really two of them, big Quemoy and little Que- mcy-lles in Amoy harbor.

REDS BEATEN OFF

Chiangu troop: held it during the big withdrawal in 1949. The Reds tried to take it October 26. 1949. with 15,000 men.

The attempt ended in disaster. Six thousand Reds were killed or drowned and 9,000 taken prisoner. The whole force was wiped out. The Nationalists lost 3,000 out of 30,000 defenders

A well-informed European mili- tary attache herc says there are 50,000 good men on Quemoy and the Reds cannot take it. with fewer than 100,000. Losses would be heavy. Quemoy does not seem worth such a price to either side.

(Reuters) - Britain has reluctantly dropped her D1511 for a nlns-power conference here next week to discuss rearming West Germany now that the EuroP93n Defence Commurilty treaty is dead.

Prime Minister Churchill and his top ministers made this dacisici. at A three-hour cabinet mectiritl Wednesday after learning that the timing would be inconvenient for u. 3. State secretary Dune! and the West German chancellor, Kon- rad Adenauer.

Authoritative sources said. how- ever, that the government still thinks I nlns-power conference would be "very useful" before the 14-nation Atlantic pact council tackles the problem of A German contribution to Western defence. Original plans for rearmlng West Germany inside A niropenn army were wrecked when France rejected EDC last week.

WILL CONTINUE EFFORTS

The sources said Britain still hopes 0. nine- war meeting can be held later month. especially since nations approached "gener- ally welcomed the idea." my and talks on the subject would be con- tinued with the other eight. nations -Canada. the United Stats and the six nations that signed the EDC

from Formosa. QUESTION OF MORAL!

What will the Nationalists do?

They might withdraw. Quemoy is not worth much militarily. But. the morale effect would be bad.

The morale question always brings up that other problem, will Chl.ang's soldiers fight this time?

Millions of them did not fght in 1949 and 1950, including those on Hainan island.

But last year a Nationalist raid- ing party struck at Tungahaii is- land, north of the Quomoy Area. by parachute and ship. The raid was poorly planned and soldiers were slaughtered, but they battled heroically and many fought their way to escape. They did not sur- render then.

Quemoy lies in a confined road- stead, limiting naval action, but carrier planes could smash an in- vasion force If they caught it in A narrow channel.
