Then Become Extinct
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

RICHMOND. Va, Sept. 30.-A
movement of Democrats for Dewey
vas taking shape here today with a
promise to become extinct after

At the same time, State Controller
Henry G.. Gilmer, high-ranking
member of the dominant Democratic
organization which generally has
appeared to be anti-Truman in SEN
timent. said he would vote for the
regular" Democratic ticket of Tru-
man and Barkley.
An appeal for Democrats to enlist
for support OF Cows. Dewey and
Warren went out .in letters signed
by Gervas S. Taylor of Richmond.
Mr.. Taylor described the Truman
administration as handling things
"ineptly," and said he saw little
merit in the States Fighters Party
movement. because the two-party
system seems very much worth pre-
serving.
1000 Letters Prepared.
Mr.. Taylor said he had about l,000
of the letters prepared to send out.
In the meantime, Robert H
Woods of Pearisburg. Republican
State chairman and candidate for
the Senate, was challenged by In
dependent Candidate Howard H
Carwile of Richmond to public de-
bate on the topic:
Resolved, that the ablest physi-
clan in the world could not detect
the minutest difference in Byro
Democrat, a Dixiecrat and a Vir.
ginia Republican"
Mr.. Gilmer's disclosure that he
will vote the Truman-Barkley ticket
was the first such animation to
come from top-rank Democratic
organization leaders, excluding con-
gressional and gubernatorial candi-
dates.
Gilmer Takes Firm Stand.
Mr.. Gilmer is from the 9th dis
trict, and he said there never had
been any doubt i'm his mind about
voting the straight Democratic
ticket.
The Young Republican State Fed
Grafton announced an intensive
drive to set up branches in all 126

Arlington Candidates
Discuss School Bonds

Only one of the four candidates
for the Arlington County Board
Yesterday would publicly commit
himself in favor of a proposed
81. $50, 900 bond issue for school con-
struction.
I. Lee Potter, independent. told
the Organized Women Voters OF Ar

House. that he was in favor OF the
issue, for which petitions are being
prepared so that the Circuit Court
may order vote.
Alfred Frisbie, Democratic incum-
bent who seeks reelection to the
one available County Board seat, de-
clared he was entitled to an
opinion as private citizen but
would not say what that opinion Is
AS a member OF the board. he said,
he had not formulated an opinion.
Francis J. Clair and Jacob Bechtel,
the other two independent candi-
dates, indicated they were against
the bond issue because 1t was too
expensive. Mr.. Clair said he did
not favor burdening the taxpayers at
time when money is cheap, and
then repaying the debt when money
becomes more scarce.
Mr.. Bechtel said he favored CIV
ing the schools sufficient money to
operate successfully, but that the
proposed bond issue seemed high.
Mrs. Edmund Campbell. School
Board member. who spoke before
the candidates were introduced,
said that If the school bond issue
were not passed double shifts in
most schools would be necessary

Fairfax Rally Opens
Drive for S7,500,000
School Bond Issue

The School Emergency Commit
tee of Fairfax County last night
! launched a campaign for 81 500,-
900 bond issue TO finance school
construction.
A rally was held at Fairfax High
School. After talks were made in
support of a bond issue, petitions
were handed to persons attending
the meeting. Signatures of 1000
qualified voters are necessary for
the court to order a referendum
The petitions are directed to the
School Board. Floyd Dominy of
Oakton said the School Board must
approve or deny the request. 4
approved, the request then must be
put before the Circuit Court. which
would act within 80 days, he said
Population Growth Cited.
Persons who accepted petitions tc
solicit signatures were asked to re-
turn them within 80 days.
School problems in Fairfax County
were outlined by Harold Ward o1
Falls Church, who said the county's
population has grown in the last
eight years from about 10000 to ar
estimated 10000.
Omer Hirst Of Annandale re-
viewed the efforts of the commit
tee to obtain a special session OF
the Legislature to provide State
funds for school construction.
Colored School Supported.
A tax subcommittee. headed by
w. Alvord Sherman, reported that
the State has a s80,000000 surplus
on hand. The committee said it
felt there was little likelihood the
sum would be spent because Vir-
ginia has never spent more than
s6.400 900 in any one year for capi-
tai outlays. The subcommittee
urged continued efforts for a spe-
cial legislative session to make
some of these funds available for
school construction. So far Gov.
Tuck has refused to call special
session.
The tax subcommittee declared
that the county could increase its
revenue by placing new houses on
tax lists more promptly and through
more careful assessments.
On motion of Mark O'Sullivan of
Vienna the committee went on
record supporting a request for a
colored high school in Fairfax
County. At present, colored high
school students attend a regional
| high school in Manassas.
