No Opposition Seen
/ Mr.. Webb believes there would
be no widespread public oppo-
sition to the rest Of the Gray
Commission plan II the referen-
dunn is defeated.
II think it would be a mis-
take to tamper with the COM
lpulsory attendance law, but II
there is an overwhelming senti-
Iment to alter it, would not OBJ
Iject," MI. Webb says. Certainly
there is no reason why we could
mot revise or repeal it If that is
the will OF the Legislature"
/ Senator Gray had this to say
about why the change to Section
IA is essential;
1.-THE amendment of the con-
stitution would permit educa-
tional aid for individual students
lin localities which decline to
operate public schools, and to
Individual children whose par
ents decline to send them to q
school which NAV have enrolled
pupils Of both races.
"In other words. we have put
foremost the welfare OF the in
Idividual pupil and the mainte-
nance OF his educational oppor-
tunitieS.
without the adoption Of our
recommendations, we feel def
nitely that the future of oul
whole school system in many
parts of Virginia would be In
Igravest jeopardy"
Says Plan is Compromise
Senator Fenwick's emphasis
has been on the point that the
Gray plan represents q com.
Ipromise Of conflicting viewpoint:
Iamong the other 81 commission
members. He believes some COM
mission members may feel FREE
ito insist on their own views
being adopted by the Legislature
unless all Of the unanimously
approved plan is enacted.
For instance, the commission
was unwilling to 60 so far as tt
adopt the suggestion from Rep

both from Southside Virginia
They proposed that no Stat,
funds be allocated any locality
that maintains an integrateC
school unless the mixing Of thu
races in classrooms first is ap'
proved by local referendum.
1T is possible" Mr.. Fenwicl
says. that II the plan does no

where apartments would be
built.

plete. Originally. Mr.. Boswell
asked for q denser type Of devel-
opment, but this was ruled out
by the Park and Planning Com

The commercial center totals
40 acres, reduced from the SO
acres requested by the Boswell
firm.
Neighbors of the Heurich tract
are divided on how the land
should be rezoned.
University Park Interested
University Park, a community
of 1900 facing it across Coles

stores and apartments.
The other municipal neighbor,
Hyattsville, officially is keeping
