...years, as head of the self-governing South American colony, Jagan has developed into a curious combination of Castroite and racist, preaching Communism while leading some 290,000 East Indians against 330,000 anti-Jagan Negroes and whites split between two major parties. Full independence was expected this year or next. But last October, after eleven weeks of strikes and violence, Colonial Secretary Duncan Sandys indefinitely postponed complete freedom for the tiny, strife-torn land. Sandys ordered new elections by the end of 1964, and decreed that they would be held under proportional representation instead of the simple majority rule...

...California Supreme Court ruled that such laws violated the Fourteenth Amendment. The second, and probably more important case, is that of Brown v. Board of Education, the 1954 Supreme Court school decision. The fall of the "Separate but Equal" principal has struck at the roots of all racist legislation and therefore it is probably only a matter of time before the Court declares racist marriage laws unconstitutional. Such a ruling will surely echo the words from Hirabayashi v. U.S. (1943): "... attempts to apply regulatory actions to particular groups solely on the basis of racial distinction or classification...
