Under the country's maze of white-supremacist apartheid rules, nonwhites may be banished from urban areas to distant villages for a variety of causes. Example: workers who have been in a city for 20 years or more may be sent back home at once if they lose their job. Others, after a lifetime's residence in South Africa, find their wives "endorsed out" * under the new restrictions if the women were born outside South Africa. In western Cape Province alone, 500 men and women are now banished monthly. Even worse is the plight of some...

Through the turmoil. Harry Ashmore's telephone shrilled around the clock with threatening calls from agitators, who were fired by Governor Faubus' cry that Editor Ashmore was the worst of all possible culprits, "an ardent integrationist." Little Rock's white-supremacist Capital Citizens' Council (annual dues: $5) dubbed Ashmore "Public Enemy No. i." Eagerly abetted by some less scrupulous competitors, a statewide boycott against "that nigger-lovin' paper" had cost the 137-year-old Gazette (circ. 99,573) 3,000 subscribers by week...
