Two New Sites
For Virginia
Home Studied

Two new sites for the proposed
Northern Virginia Regional De-
tention Home are being con-
sidered.
Mrs. Leone Buchholz, chair
man Of q special committee set
up by participating jurisdictions
to find q site. said she inspected
two good possibilities" yester-I
day. and planned to call a meet
ing Of the full committee next
week to consider them.
Both Of the new sites visited
by Mrs. Buchholz are near the
town Of Fairfax. She said each
could easily be reached from
Fairfax. Arlington, Falls Church
and Alexandria. which are
jointly sponsoring the detention
home.
NcSiucntS FFOteSC site
The first site selected by the
committee on Hummer road,
near Annandale, was abandoned
after nearby residents protested
that they did not want a deten-
ton home in their neighborhood.
Mrs. Buchholz said she would
suggest to the committee that
10 to 20 acres be acquired in
stead of a minimum of five acres
recommended by the National
Probation and Parole Associa-
ton. and a citizens study group.
She said she thought the home
could be made partially self
sustaining by having chicken
houses and vegetable gardens on
the extra acreage.
Mrs. Buchholz Criticized
II know kids" she said. II
know how restless they can get.
I don't mean that they should
take complete care Of the gar
den and chickens but it would
give them something to do"
Joseph H. Freehill, chairman
Of the citizens committee that
drew up recommendations for
the type Of facility needed, de-
clared that Mrs. BuchholZ was
completely on the wrong track"
He said it was not her commit
tees job to decide what the
home should include.
He declared that the facility
was to serve only as a deten-
ton home where seriously-trou-
bled children or runaways stay

Philip Ray Rodgers. acting
chairman of the National La
Dor Relations Board, said today
any claims that the NLRB Is
"anti-labor" are completely
false and utterly worthless"
Referring to what he called an
"oft-repeated charge" that the
boards decisions under the Eli
Isenhower administration have
reflected an anti-labor bias. Mr.,
Rodgers said:
a.. Most, II not all, of these
statements are politically in

a picture of fact, but designed
to incite prejudice and create
distrust."

gers said that only one-half OF
