School Budget

RICHMOND, June % R.-
Sussex County has become the
third Virginia county to with
hold approval Of a school oper-
ating budget in the wake of the
Supreme Court decision ordering
integration of public schools.
William B. Cooke, jr., clerk OF
the Sussex Board of Supervisors,
disclosed yesterday the board
had withdrawn earlier tentative
approval of a $521 900 school op-
Grating budget and voted instead
to appropriate only the legal
minimum of 100000 for school
maintenance next year.
This puts the county in po-

More Election Aides
Asked to End Snufu

A snafu in Fairfax County's
poll tax lists has the Board Of
County Supervisors convinced
there ought to be twice as many
election officials on duty at some
big precincts for the July II
primary.
The supervisors yesterday
adopted a resolution offered by
Arthur Shaffer asking the elec-
toral board to hire extra help
at some polling places to help
check voters tax records.
The trouble with this years
poll tax list is that some names
appear on it in several different
places and in several different
ways. This happened because
the county recently started using
automatic tabulating machines.

The funds are paid by the

Hits State Officials
The business manager again
lashed out at State officials for
not meeting a problem which he
asserts they know is acute.
He charged that he knows of
one nursing home in the State
that is operating without a Ii
cense and that the State refuses
to close it because officials have
no place to move welfare
patients. Some homes, he said,
have refused to install fire es-
capes but still have been per-
mitted to stay open.
Mr.. Howe said that on a pre-
vious occasion another nursing
home transferred 10 welfare
patients because they could not
afford to care for them.

totaling more than so, had more
people than he had seen from

2GirIs in Family Of n
Wait Hopefully on You
She isn't an old woman.

She doesn't live in shoe.
Mrs. John Jones has many
children-12 in fact. but she
knows what to do to make them
happy.
It's lack of money that is the
problem. The family lives on a
shoestring. Forty-year-old Mary
Jones is proud of her children,
from her oldest boy, John, jr., 20,
to Mary, II, George, 16, Barbara,
IS, Calvin, 13, June. IL, Jim, II,
Martha, 9, Marian. Z, Margaret,
5 Tommy 4. and the baby. g.
month-old Dorothy. All but
John, jr.. live at home.
Children of all ages and sizes
some are her own, some are
her children's friends-troop up
her front steps in the afternoon
and fill to bursting the Joneses'
small house in a Government
housing project. Mrs. Jones finds
them a pleasure, not a strain.
MIR. Jones is a laborer with the
Government. Making his salary
stretch to meet basic family
needs is the complicating factor
in the Jones household.
'Most of our money goes into
food" Mrs. Jones said. II we
didn't live in this project, we
wouldn't be able to get along.
No Money for Camp
"I never could afford to send
the children to any place like
camp, she added, with the food
I have to buy and the clothes
have to buy"
Martha was graduated from
sixth grade this year. and June
from junior high school. 1T was
quite expensive" Mrs. Jones re-
marked.
The children help out. One
boy has just started a paper
route to make money to go
swimming. The oldest girl baby
sits and the girls sometimes do
a little ironing for others.
Plans already have been made
for three of the boys to 60 to
camp.
June and Martha hope to go
through the Evening Star Camp
Fund.
June went to camp two years
ago. It takes only one question
about what 1t was like to start
her talking.-abouJ the things
they made, the songs they sang,
the special ceremonies that made
camp memorable. Mrs. Jones
smiled and listened with interest
rs her daughter told OF her ex-
perlences.
Wants FUN for Them
II like the idea of camp" she
said. "Just coming out of
school for the summer, some-
times children don't know what
to do with themselves"
