Mboya's "racist extremism" shocks even some of his fellow Africans-so much so that in July a group of African elected members in the colonial Legislative Council dealt a painful blow to Mboya's prestige by breaking away from his leadership to form their own multiracial National Party, devoted to slowly increasing African representation, which would assure democratic self-government by 1968 for Kenya. To regain his political luster, Mboya promptly announced a new party of his own-the all-African Kenya Independence Movement. But last week fate dealt Tom another setback: the Kenya government nipped K.I.M...
Mississippi, the South's lowest ranking state in per capita income and educational spending, last week took its place in the political scale. Winner of the Democratic nomination for Governor (and automatic election next November) was as bitter a racist as inhabits the nation, Ross Robert Barnett, 61, who had tried for Governor twice before and lost, won this time by a vote of 230,000 to 195,000 over Lieutenant Governor Carroll Gartin, mostly on the basis of statements such as: "The Negro is different because God made him different to punish him. His forehead slants back...
Variations on a Theme. But the whites know that their time of unquestioned domination will soon be over. South Africa's Prime Minister Hendrik Verwoerd himself-the ruthlessly logical racist who looks so much like a kindly Kris Kringle -has lately added a "positive" side to apartheid.

Running for Governor of Alabama last year, hard-jawed young (37) John Patterson could match racist slogans with the best of his opponents-and he had a record of action to back up his stump talk. As Alabama's attorney general, Patterson had helped get the N.A.A.C.P. banned from the state, taken legal action against a Tuskegee Negro boycott of downtown stores and against Montgomery Negroes when they boycotted city buses. On that basis, Patterson was elected Governor. But by last week, John Patterson had discovered to his embarrassment that the irresponsible promise held out during a campaign...
Muhammad also trained muscle. Each congregation has its "Fruit of Islam" force of young men, who take judo training in their temples, are commanded by Muhammad's son-in-law, burly "Supreme Captain" Raymond Sharrieff. The F.O.I. protects its racist chief as if he were in constant danger of assassination. At each mass meeting, the F.O.I, frisks every male who attends, while "Sisters" in flowing white robes and headpieces stand inside a separate entrance (segregation by sexes also) to frisk each woman, put all potential weapons such as nail files in checking bags...
