Typical of the sniggling subservience paid the Governor of Massachusetts by his horde of minions is the Registrar of Motor Vehicles' handling of the latest Curley accident. Not only has the unfortunate driver of the other car, young Ferreira, been summarily and unjustly deprived of his license but the full weight of bureaucratic persecution has been levelled at his head, despite the impartial and credible testimony of twelve witnesses.

When he applied for entrance to Missouri's law school, the University Registrar tactfully suggested that Lincoln could give him a "scholarship" to study law elsewhere. Negro Gaines declined to be sidetracked, got NAACP to bring suit for a writ of mandamus compelling Missouri to admit him.
