Albemarle County
Losing Its Negroes

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va, Nov.
22.-Albermarle county will soon
have very few negroes-and no
race problem-if the migration
evident for the past two decades
continues, in the opinion Of A. l..
Bennett. county superintendent OF
schools.
Every school census taken for
the past 40 years shows fewer
negro children. Some negro COM
munities have been practically
wiped out, while in others only
the old landowners can be found,
the boys and girls having left
the farms and gone to Northern
and Western cities and other in
dustrial centers to make their
homes.
AS result of this general exc
dus, many small idle tracts of
land are to be found here and
there throughout the county,
owned by aged negroes too old to
till the land. In some instances,
only one parent is left on the
home place: in others, where
both parents are alive, their ex-
istence is dependent entirely upon
the money sent home by the
children in the city.

|NFEDERAL POWER
Senator King Flags Bureau
cracy-Hits Huge Finan-
ciaI Combines.

A threatened absorption of the States
by the Federal Government in the field
of politics, and the growth of trusts and
monopolies in finance and industry
were singled out by Senator William
H. King of Utah last evening as de-
velopments in twentieth century Amer
lea that imperil our form of Govern
ment though declaring faith in the
ultimate triumph of democracy.
Senator King spoke in the National
Radio Forum, arranged by The Star
and sponsored by the Columbia Broad
casting System. The address was
broadcast locally from Station WMAL
over a coast-to-coast network of sta
tions.
Hope Of Democracy.
Senator King asserted that If democ-
racy as a form of government is to pre-
vail, It must break with growing
federalism and find its strength as well
as It's hope for success in local self
government.
This is not a question of bringing
to life a dead States right doctrine p"
he declared, at is dealing with a funda-
mental question of political science.
The question Of local self-government
and the principal of the sovereignty Of
the States is not a dead one. 1t is one
of the most vital problems In our body
polite"
"A powerful bureaucracy is being es-
tablished in the United states with al
most autocratic power" he declared.
Have Federal Authority.
More than 100000 persons are
clothed with Federal authority and con-
stitute part of the great bureaucracy
under which we live. The activities OF
the Federal Government are being ex-
tended into almost every home in the
land paternalisn Is growing, and
side by side with it socialism strides
with vigorous step, while bureaucracy
marches with triumphant banners
throughout the land. The melancholy
picture is presented of many OF the
people shrinking domestic and legal re-
sponsibilities, betraying their States
and contributing to their decline by
giving support to Federal aggression and
Federal bureaucratic government"
what is needed today" he declared,
"is a renaissance of the spirit of States
rights and local self-government, of
revolt against Federal usurpations and
A determination to resist the centraliz-
ing and centrifugal forces which are
drawing the states within the swirling
malestrom Of this new federalism"
Fight on Trusts at End.
In the realm Of finance and industry.
Senator King is convinced that the
revolt against trusts, characterized by
the Sherman antitrust law and the
Clayton act, has subsidized, 'or at least
the voice of opposition has been para
lyzed."

"and are defended upon economic
grounds; and millions Of capital are be-
ing massed to secure the control of

business plants and organizations.

of limited means are absorbed or de-
stroyed by the advancing hosts Of big

PROBE NEARING END
Engineers Report Will

Future Policy in Problem
BY CHARLES B. DEGGEs.

During the IL years the District has
been building. moving and repairing its rs
portable schools. the average amount Of
money spent on any eight OF them has
been nearly so per cent of what 1t would
have cost to build and maintain an
eight-room permanent school building.
Figures obtained by The Star show,
Furthermore, that II the permanent
buildings had been reproduced as near
ly As physically possible in the port
ables the cost would have been II per
cent of that of the regulation eight
room school. The cost Of sites is not
included in either of the averages as
portables in most cases are located ad-
jacent to permanent buildings.
Portables Virtually Scrap.
The investigation further revealed
that at the end Of the 12-year period
the permanent buildings were perfectly
sound, while the portables were about
ready for the scrap heap.
That's the economic side Of the
portable school question here and It's
the side which doubtless is responsible
for the hitherto unannounced study
now being made by school of1cials to
determine whether 1t would not be
cheaper to transport suburban children
by bus at public expense to more CEN
trally located permanent school build
ings than it is to attempt to maintain
portable school groups within walking
distance of each of the citys newer resi-
Dental developments.
Another study of the portables was
completed last Friday when special
committee of engineers appointed by
the municipal architect inspected the
last of the rs structures now In use to
determine those which, through struc-
tural weaknesses incurred by. frequent
moving and general deterioration. pre-
sent actual dangers to their occupants.
