...Mississippi's Hodding Carter. But to many Southern intellectuals, the finest paper in the region is built not around a man, but on a moderate, conscientious approach to racial integration and the self-declared aim "to give the news impartially, without fear or favor." The paper: the Chattanooga Daily Times...
Near Relations. Popham's service with the New York Times was no coincidence. Both papers are owned by the estate of the late (1935) Adolph Ochs; both are run by his descendants and their relatives. In fact, the Chattanooga Daily Times can claim to be the parent of its massive stablemate: Ochs was publisher and owner of the Daily Times when he bought the New York Times in 1896 for $75,000.

The 13 came for arraignment before Judge Schoolfield, who carefully studied the evidence against them and decided it was "good." In fact, testified former Court Officer James W. West, Judge Schoolfield "seemed enthused" at the prospect-possibly because earlier the Teamsters Union...
...think even the committee was prepared for the shocking pattern of viciousness, lawlessness and disregard for the laws of the land to which many witnesses have testified here." Sample testimony: Nashville Teamsters negotiated contracts with pile-driving fists; Knoxville Teamsters dynamited truckers who refused to bargain without NLRB elections; Chattanooga Teamsters bombed, burned and escaped the consequences by passing $20.000 in bribes that, by strong inference, influenced the decision of the county judge trying the case...
