; RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia DIAL: WASHINGTON 2851 BRUCE S. BOWIE....Publisher Entered as second-class mail at the post office at Washington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (inadvance) ________ $2.00 a year. IU4 UA1J By Rep. Burr P. Harrison Should the Federal Government contribute to the cost of building new schools in Virginia? If we .are offered Federal money, will there be strings attached, such as a requirement that we abandon segregation ? President Eisenhower requested islation for school construction inTa, special message to Congress January 12. Already pending in the house was a bill reported Favorably last year by the Committee on Education and Labor, and called the Kelley Bill, after its author, * Rep. Augustine B. Kelley (D., Pa.) lne President would allot $250,000,000 a year, for five years to the States, for school buildings. The Kelley Bill would make it $400,000,000 a year for four years. In cither case, the States would hast to match the Federal money, dollar for dollar. There would be varying*formulas, based on school population, or other indices of need under Which the States would receive differing amounts. It has been estimated the Kelley Bill would give Virginia $1130 a year /or each school-age child. Virginia might be permitted a smile at one provision included in both the Presidents plan and the Kelley Bill. The Federal Government would be authorized to buy school bonds when the local communities were having trouble sell- > ing them. Virginia’} municipal bonds are better sellers in the investment market than the bonds of the Federal Government. Under both proposals, the Federal Government also could advance nfoney for comm un i t ies the early interest and amortiza which might not be able to pay tion charges on the bonds they want to sell. • In addition, the President wants a bigger appropriation for the United States Office of Education to permit , more research on educational needs and methods. Mr. Eisenhower also wants to continue' the present financial aid to communities whose school overcrowding is caused largely by the presence of large federal establishments. So far, the only effect this has had on us in the 7th Congressional District is that our Federal taxes help pay for new schools in such places as Arlington and Alexandria, where thousands of Federal employees live. We can slip into an economic dream world, however, by thinking that we are getting “extra money ” if it comes to Washing SPARE TIME JOB MEN — WOMEN Sell SCOTCH-LITE Name Plates For top of rural mail boxes that SHINE AT NIGHT Also house numbers — Door Plates—Fast Sellers—Bi* Profits Ideal for retired persons on pension FREE SALES OUTFIT ILLUMINATED SIGN CO. 2942 First Avenue S. MINNEAPOLIS, MINN. ton. The Federal Government has no magic source of wealth. Any money coming from Washington has to be collected first from the taxpayers, in Virginia and elsewhere. Under the Kelley Bill, for example, Federal taxes "would hplp pay us a.so-called Federal grant of about $9229,000 a year for school construction. But we would also be called upon to help pay through our taxes for an annual “grant” of about $32,238,000 a year for schools in the State of New York. If it should be established that Virginia’s school facilities are inadequate, I believe the remedy would lie closer than Washington. I am not convinced that we must resign ourselves to an increasing measure of Federal control over our education. Experience has shown that ■ this control, in one way or another, invariably follows Federal money. rresiaenr msennower s message to Congress contains this passage: “I propose a formula to reduce the proportion of Federal funds for those few States which are noticeably lagging behind their ability to 'support their public schools.’! As this is a Federal program. Washington will decide whether Virginia is “lagging” or not. On the other hand, in the committee report on the Kelley Bill, there is this language: “In order to participate in this program, a State is required to submit to the United States Commissioner of Education, through its State educational agency, a State plan setting forth a program under which the plan will be administered.” . . Washington will decide whether Virginia’s plan is a good plan. And again,1 the committee report states this: , “A State must provide assurances that the schools built under this title shall be subject to the provisions of the Davis-Bacon Act, including the fixing of wages by the Secretary of Labor.” Washington will decide how much the workmen should be paid to build the new schools. * You may hare read of the Powell Amendment, sponsored by one K m&iSSm BY IENOX A rich red rose surrounded by costly golden leaves. 5-piece piece setting...$23.95 P.

It would deny this ■ Federal school construction money to any school system operated on a segregated basis. 1 i Whether or not |s.uch a provision is in' any school construction bill eventually enacted (by Congress, I think it probable \ that Federal money eventually will be denied to segregated schools. This development could come by the administrative edict of a Federal bureaucrat or a Federal Court order. The reliance would be on the Supreme Court decision. In other words, we are likely to see a promise of Federal money to build schools used as another lever in the attempt to force integration op our Virginia schools.

W. White, State Director of Selective Service for Virginia. The new Regulations are hcorporated in Executive Orders issued by the President in accordance with provisions of amendments to the Armed Forces Reserve Act of 1952 enacted by the Congress last summer. Captain White explained. that the other Executive Orders, which in no way affects Selective Service Regulations has to do with the screening of the Ready Reserve. Under provisions of the order, the President prescribes means by which persons with critical skills and who ard engaged in civilian occupations in critical defensei-supporting industry or in research activity affecting national defense, may enlist in units of the Ready Reserve. The State Director explained that persons enlisting under provision of the law must join a Unit of the Ready Reserve eight years. Each enlistee must ir this for per form an initial period from three to six months of active duty training and must satisfactorily perform all prescribed training duty during the remainder of the eight-year period. Persons so enlisted may, under ^certain conditions,, be relieved of training duty requirements, but may not be relieved of the requirement that they perform the three to six months’ active dufy training. The State Director pointed out that a person so enlisted shall bedeferred from induction so long as he continues to serve satisfactorily, and upon completing the eightyear enlistment, he shall become exempt from further liability for induction except in the event of emergency. It was explained that, in selecting applicants for this program, the local board will be guided by the current list of critical occupations issued by. the Secretary of Labor, and the current list of essential activities issued by. the Secretary of Commerce as modified from time to time by the Office of Defense Mobilization after consultation with the Secretary of Defense. To be selected for this program, the State Director explained, the registrant must make application to his local board. Normally, the registrant who is selected must enlist in the proper Ready Reserve within 30 days after his notification of selection is mailed. In effecting transfers to the Standby Reserve, preference will be given first to those who have participated in combat, and second, those with the least remaining, obligated service in the Ready Reserve. • Whatever yourspecialty may be, you realize that.it require* competence, care, and long experience.

Mr. Coldiron, though agreeing to the need of such work, said that he Sad to stick to the policy of not sanding the roads. It would amount to an enormous expenditure,, for which no funds are allocated.

This not only hurts the hunting for the local hunters; it also has brought the game here to a dangerous JoW.

Latham, that the Board go on record as approving the sales tax, now under consideration. The motion was carried, 5 to 1, Edward M. Estes’ vote being the only opposing.
