Their hope: Millionaire Winthrop Rockefeller, who came within 82,928 votes of beating Faubus in 1964-and has not stopped running since. Thanks to Rockefeller largesse, the G.O.P. in Arkansas throbs with enthusiasm.

Other Southern segregationists are going still farther and conceding that they are not so much bought as beaten. Arkansas' Orval Faubus is admitting that "there is quite a difference" between his old recalcitrant days of 1957 and the present. "Congress now has passed a law, and it is the law of the land." Thus one of his education department officials has warned possible holdout districts: "Those that go it alone are going to find themselves in court."
