WASHINGTON (UPI) — The
government and a Negro attorney
asked the Supreme Court today to
send seven colored children back
to Little Rock's Central High
School this fall without delay
The Negro attorney Thurgood
Marshall urged the court not to
"surrender to obstructions and
mob action" He said it must
hand down a ruling that makes it
Clear to Arkansas that the orders
iof the courts (on integration) ran-
not be be interfered with"
The government backed up the
Negroes in a brief filed shortly
before the court met in extraor-
dinary session to bear arguments
on the legally complex Little Rock
Integration case

OKLAHOMA CITY (UPI) — An
NAACP official said today the
more than 100 Negro youths stag-
ing a sitdown strike to ga:n ser-
vice in the city's eating places
Will be reinforced
"We're in a hurry now" said !
Mrs Clara Luper youth advisor
for the Oklahoma chapter of the
National Association for the Ad-
Naneement of Colored People "We
must not have been effective with
our present force"
"She said "at least 150" Ne-
groes would be stationed at John
A Brown Co department store
fountain where they have been
refused service despite having
gained the right to be served at
several other Oklahoma City eat-
ing places
"If Brown's will feed us" she
said "we will go home"
Her statement was issued on
heels of a Negro mass demonstra-
tion at the state capitol S o rn e
200 Negroes gathered on the steps
of the building sang the national
anthem and pledged to continue
their sitdown strike
John White El Reno an official
of the state branch of the NAACP
said he has learned that a similar
protest has been planned for Enid
86 mile to the northwest
Negroes entered two Enid drug
stores Wednesday and occupied
about half the fountain seats They
left when they learned that down-
town restaurant owners planned a
meeting to outline their stand
Mrs Loper said she has re-
ceived several letters of eneour-
agement concerning the cam-
paign She said a telegram from Jackie
Robinson ex - Brooklyn Dodger
great said "I would like for you
to express to all the youngster
who are making this great fight
my appreciation It is this kind of
determination which will win fcr
them the place in democracy we
seek"

argued that integration at Central
High --where ludo al troops were
stationed during the List school
year--should be postponed for 21:4
years
The School Board has said that
emotions in Little Rock are at
finch a pitch that troops would
have to be called out again if On
attempt vvere made to resume
integration this fall
But the government accusing
the School R ant of asking the
court to relieve it of its obliga
tions said that to delay integra-
tion would deprive the Negro
children "of their cilisiitutional
rights"
Marshall representing the Na-
tional Association for the Advame-
mnt of Colored People led off
the oral arguments
All nine justices were present
for the unusual special term
From today's proceedings may
come clarification of the courts
order cf May 31 1955 that inte-
gration in public schools should
proceed "w i t h all deliberate
speed"
Last year's integration step at
Central High stemmed from a
1957 Federal Court order In June

month the US Circuit Court of I
Appeals at St Louis overruled
Leniley then stayed its decisiun 30
days to pet nit the Supreme Corot
rev levy'
The NAACP petitioned the court
to throw out the 30-day stay brder
and vacate Lemley's delay order
Abu shall was followed by Rich-
ard Butler attorney for the
Little Rock School Board
Chief Justice Earl Warren asked
Butler if the School Board had
decided what it would do about
school desegregation "in event this
court declines to grant this stay"
"No" Butler replied adding
that the board was "almost com-
pelled" to Wait and see what laws
are passed by tie' Arkansas Ikg-
islature now in special session
The Legislature today passed a
bill to close the school if integra-
tion is ordered
"We have to meet situations as
they arrive" Butler said
Warren asked Butler if the
School Board would assign the
seven Negro youngsters to an all-
Negro school if this court grants
a stay"
"Yes sir" Butler replied
The justices asked Butler more
questions than they put to Mar-
shall but there appeared to be
no difference in Own tone
There had been speculation that
the Justice Department might sug-
gest a "go slow" approach This
was based On President Eisen
bower's rIVWs conference 111-nail(
Wednesday indicating he felt the
paee of integration should be
slower
But the government brief signed
by Solicitor General J Lee Ran-
kin was a hard-hitting plea to
the court to remove all legal bar-
riers to return of the Negro chil-
dren to Central High Sept R
The Little Rock School Board
had said in its brief that the
"emotional pitch" was such that
troops again would be required if
intcgiation were not delayed
Jailed to Seek Help
In today's brief the government
said nobody had made the "slight-
est suggestion that the colored
children did anything to incite
violence or disorderly conduct"
It added that those "primarily
responsible for the campaign"
against integration at Central
High were a "band of trouble
makers" belonging to the Capitol
Citizens Council
Instead of asking relief from its
obligation to put integration in ef-
fect the School Board should do
whatever is necessary to carry it
out the government brief said
' It added however that the
board members har "failed to
show that they sought assistance
from other duly c4mstituted au-
thorities" to help them "in the
performance of their duties"
The government said the School
Board has no given "sufficient
jusification for suspending the
Neg ro I children's constitutional
rights"
It said that those are rights
-which can be enforced only
while they are of school age so
that any suspension of their rights
is actually a permanent and ir-
retrievable deprivation"
The brief said the Court of Ap
peals order leversing Lemley's
order was "clearly corre('t" and
that "the relief sought by the
p"t ii Ioflh'r 4 the NAACP) should
granLql"
