Childhood Memories Of Place Savannah Memphis which was being constructed from Ope lika to Columbus which was ori ginally a branch of the Western Ry of Alabama Mr Spencer pre sident of the Southern Ry told me that my father gave him his first job which was on the Savan nah Memphis as he applied for work on his graduation from an engineering college My father was a life long friend and business associate of his fellow Virginian Col Pollard They were both interested in the Chewacla Lime Works which operated a large kiln near Yongesboro I have delightful childhood me mories of Spring Villa recall the wonderful gushing spring the cir cular lake fed by it surrounded by weeping willow trees and the first mill operated by Mr Yonge In this connection I will mention Mr Yonge Blount Building Pensacpla la a very prominent lawyer there who was born at Yongesboro I assume he was a grandson of the Villa" Yonge I know whether he has any early memories of the place Other residents of Yongesboro I recall are two of my uncles my brothers Viz: Edward Carrington Elmore a victim of the yellow fever near Pensacola in 1873 who had been treasurer of the Confederacy and John Taylor Elmore who died in 1875 or 1876 My half sister and her husband rancis Armstrong also lived there I think he was connected with the Chewacla Lime Works Also connected with that concern was a Mr Clapp who later operat ed a marble works in Montgomery I remember pleasantly your brother Judge William Hodge Samford of the Appellate Court here We were both members of Thirteen" a social and liter ary club which we both enjoyed I know from whom my father acquired his home at Yon gesboro nor to whom he sold it He moved with his family (wife and six young sons his crop" as he called us) to Sewane Tenn an Episcopal

Airmen Release by Red China of four American airmen serves to revive hopes that all Americans being illegally held there will eventually be freed Since first announcement of the impending release came by way of India where Indian diplomat Krishna broke the news it may be expected that any further liberations if any will be channeled through the same source ifty two other Americans are 'being' held in Red China against all accepted rules of war Trumped up charges have been lodged against them by their captors but this does not change the fundamental principle Just why Peipinc would decree the release of four and continue to hold more than two score others is not clear Nothing in fact involving the Communists is clear But now that a beginning has been made high hopes are enter tained that before very long all surviving Americans held in' Chinese prisons will be liberated Such would clear up a serious point of dif ference and should in all reason pave the way for a more conciliatory

his Republicans would work hard on this problem it not be an issue in 1956 He seems to have been right With few exceptions congres Democrats the real party spokesmen when they have no chief in the White House have i been extremely placid This might be interpreted as meaning the Democrats think they have a cinch in 1956 think nothing of the If Eisenhower runs again the Democrats' look as good as

on ways and means of enforcing the segre The Court's enforcement ruling in fact was all the south might have hopefully expected in the premises It was devoid of any trace of vindictiveness suspicion or retaliation It took cognizance of a real situation that exists and allowed time to peacefully work things out In referring enforcement to the local ederal Courts the decision definitely repudiates the bayonet methods that were used in recon struction times The decision permits feasibility to include many adjuncts such as personnel equipment location arrangements transportation and even redistricting plans It is a relief to know that some of the dire forecasts of last yeai are not coming to pass such as peremptory orders with specific dead lines The Court Justices have again demonstrated that men in high niares are still men with human hearts and emotions The South must understand that the segregation decision of Iasi year remains in force and cannot be openly and continuously floured with contempt Il is now our part to study well our plans taking care that we not flagrantly transgress the law of the land thereby making ourselves liable to rough treatment tVe

a good sized grove of trees in front It had an apple orchard a peach orchard garden and a farm connected with it My father built a fish pond on the place fed by a branch The Pollard place to which you
