Senate Unit Is Told
VIRGINIA School Needs
Due 10 Defense Shifts
Hall Cites Plight
Of Counties and
9 Cities Affected

The plight of II counties and
cities in Virginia, where total of
1900 additional children have been
enrolled due TO concentration of
population in defense activities, was
described to a Senate subcommittee
late yesterday by Sidney B. Hall,
State superintendent of public in
struction.
1t will require sl53000 for pur-
chase of new sites for school build
ings, he told the subcommittee Of
the Committee on Education and
Labor that began hearings on a
bill to provide 100000 900 in Fed
eral funds for aid to State edu-
cational systems.
Presumably Includes ID. c.
The District presumably would
share in the bills provisions, if the
measure passes, as it is intended TO
provide school facilities in localities
where the defense program has
brought many new workers and
their families.
Virginia is handicapped. too, by
the fact that there are nine Fed
eral reservations that pay no State
taxes, the educator said.
He said the Federal Government
should pay the cost Of bringing the
Negro schools to the same level as
the white because the Federal Gov
ernment forced the issue with the
Supreme Court decisions regard
ing equality of schools MI. Hall
said also that he hoped through
aid Of the bill, to construct a series
of regional trade schools within
the State.
McNutt Speaks Briefly.
DR.. Floyd w. Reeves. chairman of
the Advisory Committee on Edu-
cation Of the Federal Security
Agency. told the committee that
cities should not hesitate to help
pay for the education Of persons in
rural areas because the cities drew
much of their population from the
farms and they would be paving
for education of their people in
advance
Paul V. McNutt administrator of
the Federal Security Agency. said
in a brief appearance before the
committee that you can't put edu-
cation into cold storage and then
give it back at the end of an
emergency
Dr. Howard Dawson. director of
rural service for the National Edu-
cation. testified there would be 265.-
900 children in the Nation that
would be without school facilities
this fall, as result Of the national
defense population shifting.
