Fairfax Board Orders
Work Resumed on
.AnnandaIe School

Contractors today received or
ders from the Fairfax County
School Board to resume work on
the new Annandale High School
project. which has been at a
standstill three months.
The Blake Construction Co..
which has the contract to build
the new STA million school,
stopped work when adverse SUBJ
soil and ground water conditions
were encountered, school officials
said. Additional foundation work
not included in the original de-
sign was required.
Cost-plu Basis Planned.
The School Board last night
voted to have the contractors
proceed with the project, and
agreed to pay for the additional
foundation work on a cost-plus
basis. The School Board rejected
Blake's proposal to do the extra
work at bid price because
school officials said the bid was
incomplete.
Architect Robert I. Willgoos
said the original contract with
Blake Construction Co. gave the
school board authority to order
extra work on a cost-pluS basis.
William j. Finley, district en-
gineer for the Government in
charge of supervising Federal
aid to school projects in Mary
land, Pennsylvania and Virginia,
also recommended that the prof.
ect proceed on that basis. The
county is receiving $840 900 from
the Government to help finance
the new school.
School Supt. w. T. Woodson
urged the school board to act so
work could be resumed.
I'm very concerned that con-
struction get going as soon as
.possible-we are facing a critical
situation in the fall of 1854"
said Mr.. WoodSon.
Half Day Sessions.
The school board adopted a
policy of using halliday sessions
in the first and second grades IN
overcrowded schools, instead of
renting unsatisfactory quarters.
Wherever possible, however, tenn
porary quarters will be rented
to avoid halliday shifts above
the second grade.
School officials estimated
about 1000 children will be on
halliday sessions this fall. About
300 were on halliday sessions
last year.
It was voted to increase the
size of a proposed addition at
the Vienna Elementary School
from three rooms to six or seven
rooms, and omit three additional
rooms proposed at the Freedom
Hill School. School officials said
there had been increased home
construction in the Vienna area
requiring additional school space
there. Both projects are part
of the new $11 million construc-
ton program which is tied up
by litigation.

Safeway in Virginia
Increases Milk Price
! Cent Under Protest

Safeway stores raised the price
of Lucerne milk a half cent a
quart in nearby Virginia stores
today under protest. and limited
that legal battle might be
forthcoming against the new
higher price.
The price increase was forced
by new retail minimum milk
prices ordered by the Virginia
State Milk Commission yester-
day: 22.5 cents a quart for milk
sold in stores. and 24.5 cents
a quart for milk delivered at
home.
Only Lucerne Affected.
The new minimum prices are
a half cent above the old min
imums. Most dairies have been
selling milk a half cent above
the old minimums in nearby
Virginia since mid-June. Only
Lucerne had continued to sell at
the old minimum of % cents a
quart.
Virginia law permits the sale
of milk above minimum prices,
but not below them.
The higher minimums were
requested by a majority of the
Washington area dairies to Off
set the effects of wage increases
recently awarded drivers. Safe
way Stores, however, had asked
that the minimum price for milk
sold in stores remain unchanged.
Arthur B. Hanson, attorney
for Safeway, advised the milk
commission by letter last night
that Safeway would comply with
the new higher prices under
protest"
CriticiZeS Commission.
"The economics of this order
are so patiently invalid that it is
difficult for us to understand
how the commission could have
reached it's conclusions" said
Mr.. Hanson. I'VE are taking
this entire matter under advise
ment with a view toward future
action"
Mr.. Hanson said he was writ
ing the milk commission on in
structions of Edgar Balshaw,
division manager of Safeway
Stores here. He said Mr.. Bal
shaw asked him to protest "in
the strongest terms possible this
inequitable situation which has
forced the company to raise its
prices in the face of irrefutable
evidence pointing out that this
price increase was not necessary
in store sales"

Democrats Plan
Delayed Race
Against Dalton
Fast Finish Seen
With StonIey's Drive
Set for September
Special pispateh 10 The stur

RICHMOND. Va, July 3d.
Democratic Party leaders In
Notwithstanding strategy
now plan a "tortoise-and- hare"
race against Ted Dalton, Re.
publican candidate for Gov.
ernor.
They are going to hold OF
their attack during August, be-
lieving that Mr.. Dalton, the
hare" will run out of fresh
issues.
Then. in early September, the
Democrats will bring up their
big guns-.-Senators Byrd and
Robertson. seven Democratic
representatives. Gov. Battle, 1t.
Gov. Stephens and Attorney
General Almond.
When the dust clears, the
Democratic tortoise in the story.
Thomas B. Stanley. will be first
over the finish line on Novem-
Der 3. his hackers believe.
Two Month Drive Seen.
The consensus among Demo-
cratic leaders interviewed today
was for a delayed but intense
two-month speaking campaign in
September and October and one
of them supplied the comparison
of the hare and the tortoise.
In the fable, however, the hare
stopped to snooze. Mr.. Dalton
has promised to keep running.
The change in the Democratic
timetable has been gradual.
The night of Mr.. Stanley's vic
tory over State Senator Charles
r. Fenwick in the July IA pri-
mary, some Stanley men urged
that the Democratic State Gen.
tral Committee meet a week
later to plan the fight against
the Republicans most potent
candidate in years.
Later, Sidney Kellam, Mr..
Stanley's State manager, said
the Central Committee would
meet "in two or three weeks"
Then it was talked about for
mid-August and now the kick
off session is slated for even later.
The Democrats are moving
ahead with quiet grass-rootS
organization, but they believe q
four-month speaking campaign
is too long to keep voter interest
at high pitch. -
Respect Dalton as Debater.
Another factor for the freeze,
treatment in the early stages OF
the campaign is Mr.. Dalton'S
skill as a counter-puncher in
debate.
State Senator Frank 3.
Richeson, Mr.: Stanley's Rich
mond manager. topped off q
recent exchange in the news
papers by asking Mr.. Dalton why
President Eisenhower had ap-'
pointed three Richmond Demo-
Gratis in high office.
Mrs Dalton replied that the
President was picking the best
men available. regardless OF
party, just as he (Dalton) would
do if elected Governor Of Vir-
ginia. ....
Since his nomination Mr.. Dali
ton has come out on a number
of issues, including the elimina-
ton of the poll tax as a voting
requirement. In Norfolk over
the week end, he declared that
Mr.. Stanley's silence on the poll
tax issue must indicate he favors
it's retention.
Mr.. Stanley was in Richmond
yesterday and reporters asked
for comment on this charge.
Mr.. Stanley said he couldn't
comment because he had not
seen or read what Mr.. Dalton
