 Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower IS expected to be named command er-in-chief but there remains the choosing of his deputy and the commanders of ground. sea, and air arms.

entirely upon taxpayers in the
next few years.
S. Costs of a bond issue would
be shared by taxpayers over a
long period-including people who
will benefit from the schools in
the future.
There appears to be no CEN
trally organized opposition to the
bond issue proposal. Neverthe-
less. it is being fought by mem
bers Of several groups. One is
the Fairfax Taxpayers Advisory
Association. Another, recently
formed, calls itself the Fairfax
County Better Government Com
mittee.
Arguments Against Bonds.
Here are some of the argu-
ments advanced against the bond
issue:
l. The pay-aS-you-go plan is as
good in building schools as in
other fields. Each year the county
can levy taxes to cover current
costs.
2 The sos million figure set
is too high. All of 1t could not
be used at once. (School authori-
ties said. however, they would
float the bonds gradually, as new
construction requires.)
| 3. Interest charges on the bonds
would be burdensome.
4. Complications would result if
the bond issue is approved and
if parts of Fairfax are annexed
by Falls Church or Alexandria
Both cities have annexation suits
pending. The bond opponents
contend residents of the annex
able area may be liable for "dou-
BILE taxation" (This is denied by
some advocates; others say it is
a remote technical possibility
which the courts would not per-
mit)
| Effort was made two years ago
to float bonds for school buildings
but the movement was blocked by
legal difficulties arising from the
incorporation of Falls Church as
a city of the second class. The
vote to be taken Wednesday will
culminate efforts made since then
efforts delayed from time to
time because of the city's an
nexation plans.
School authorities estimate $l9
million will be required to pro-
vide an adequate building pro-
gram in the next 10 years. The
bond issue now proposed, together
with SIS million to be obtained
from other sources, would permit
start on work to be spread over
the first few years.

The most important question
of public education ever submitted
to Fairfax County voters will be
decided Wednesday.
Ballots cast between 7 am. and
Y pm. that day will determine
what the county does to relieve
one of the most critical school
situations in the United States
and how quickly.
The voters will decide whether
to authorize a sos million bond
issue for school construction.
If they approve bonds. Fairfax
will launch a big school building
program within a matter of
months. If the voters reject the
proposal. the county then must
find some other solution to a
problem getting worse every day.
In the latter event, delays in re-
lief appear inevitable.
Crisis Due to Growth.
The Fairfax crisis is due pri-
marily to tremendous growth, as a
consequence, of which demands
for government service far exceed
supply. AS the largest single
service. the school system has suf-
fered the heaviest burden.
In 1948, Fairfax schools en-
rolled 8,195 pupils. Two or three
years ago the postwar classroom
crush was felt. In one session,
enrolment jumped almost 1000.
The next session it rose another
1900.
Last January 1, the schools had
$4,000 children and they are still
enrolling on an average of 8.7 each
day. At that rate, 18.400 will be
clamoring for education in Sep
tember, 1851.
BY accepted standards, Fairfax
will need about 900 classrooms for
those pupils. At present, the school
system has just 321 and IS of these
are suh-standard. AS makeshift,
it is accommodating the present
overflow in II extra spaces. These
include leaky Quonset huts, church
rooms and lodge halls removed
from main school buildings, and
even furnace rooms.
Still Short After Building.
The impact of sudden popula-
ton growth is reflected by some
1948 statistics: At the start of the
year the county had shortage of
II classrooms. 1t managed to build
| Is new ones. Yet, when the year
ended. enrollement had increased
so much that the system was short
so classrooms.
The shortage now is estimated
