On no less than 55 occasions have United States Presidents used Federal force to quell domestic violence after State officials proved unable or unwilling to act. But states-righters--and there are many of them--moan and wail about a "Federal Police Force" in any state. Their complaints must not make us lose sight of the real issue here: Will justice be administered in Alabama?

He tried to explain to them that in the play he is a character called Demetrius, who gets lost in the woods...
...funeral ship as well as his shapely daughter (Yugoslavia's Beba Loncar), and head south. All that stands in their way is a mutinous crew, a maelstrom and Sidney Pokier, a Moorish prince. He, too, dreams of the golden "Mother of Voices," but hears only the wail of his neglected Queen Rosanna Schiaffino. Pokier captures the vikings in a highly photogenic battle beside their shipwrecked hull...
