2.1.3Using the source and your own knowledge, explain why there was a need for ameeting between Faubus and Eisenhower.2.1.4Why, according to the source, did Eisenhower try to discourage Faubus fromtaking the Little Rock Nine issue to court? SOURCE 2AThe source below is an extract taken from notes by President Dwight Eisenhower on 8 October 1957 after his meeting with Governor Faubus. Itfocuses on the visit of Governor Faubus of Arkansas to Little Rock on 14 September 1957. The meeting took place in Newport.Governor Faubus protested again and again that he was a law abiding citizen, that he was a veteran, fought in the war, and that everybodyrecognises that the Federal law is supreme to State law. So I suggested to him that he go home and not necessarily withdraw the National Guardtroops, but just change their orders to say that having been assured that there was no attempt to do anything except to obey the Courts and thatthe Federal government was not trying to do anything that had not been already agreed to by the School Board and directed by the Courts; thathe should tell the Guard to continue to preserve order but to allow the Negro children to attend Central High School. I pointed out at that time hewas due to appear the following Friday, the 20th, before the Court to determine whether an injunction (compelling court order) was to be issued.I further said that I did not believe it was to anybody to have a trial of strength between the President and a Governor because in any areawhere the Federal government had assumed jurisdiction (authority) and this was upheld by the Supreme Court, there could be only one outcome. that is, the State would lose, and I did not want to see any Governor humiliated. He seemed to be very appreciative of this attitude and I gotdefinitely the understanding that he was going back to Arkansas to act within a matter of hours to revoke (reverse) his orders to the Guard toprevent re-entry of the Negro children into the school. He told me of his war experiences and vigorously asserted his deep feelingsdedication to the Federal government, and repeated several times that he had shown respect for the law in all his actions.Floyalty andHome, www.mhunt/weebly.com./.
