View of newsmen seated and cameramen at a press conference. President Eisenhower enters the conference room. Journalist asks him questions regarding violence resulting from "Segregation Issues" (racial segregation) as schools reopen after the summer in the United States, under desegregation orders. President replies how local governments need to enforce the laws including federal law, and that the United States of America is ready to help. Journalists writing in notepads. Close view of President speaking. President is asked what he would say to young people who are responsible for unrest and tension during desegregation. The President states that it is difficult through law and courts to change the hearts of people. He advises people to explore the issues, and that we need to "bring about a change in spirit, so that extremists on both sides do not defeat what we know to be a reasonable and logical conclusion of this whole affair, which is recognition of the equality of man." He says the south is full of people of good will, but that we only hear from others in the south who are full of prejudice and who resort to violence, and the same way on the other side with people who want to have the whole matter settled today. President Eisenhower says of desegregation, "this is a question of leading, and training, and teaching people and it takes some time."
