VIRGINIA:
By ALEX r. PRESTON

"A decision from the SUI
preme Court of Appeals !.
should be most helpful to the
General Assembly"
Whether he knew 1t or not.
Gov. Stanley uttered q mouth
fnl when he said that.
His words ended q I39-word
statement explaining why he
had requested a test case be
brought before Virginia's high
est tribunal.
From outward appearances
the suit will determine whether
the States practice of paying
the tuition Of war orphans at
tending private schools violates
the State constitution.
But the courts opinion may
provide the mold for the key
stone Of Virginia's future pro-
gram Of dealing with the pub
lie school segregation issue.
The suit, filed only last
month. has been placed on the
courts priority docket. 1t will
be argued in Richmond to-
morrow.
Specifically the suit seeks
an Interpretation Of Section
14I Of the constitution with
respect to appropriations in
the current budget to help
educate the orphans of vir-
girlia war casualties.
The amount involved is rela-
lively small. The 1854 Gen.
eral Assembly set up only
$4,000 for each year OF the
biennium for this purpose.
Individual grants range up to
$500.
Last year only q orphans
benefited at a cost Of slightly
over $1,000. About 80 will re-
ceive aid this year.
The disputed section Of the
constitution says: mo appro-
priation Of public funds shall
be made to any school or in
stithtion Of learning not owned
or exclusively controlled by the
State or some political subdi-
vision thereof J"
Sidney c. Day. who became
State controller on September
! and who issues the vouchers
for the grants. said he had
some doubts about the legality
of the practice. 1t was he
technically-who instituted the
suit.
Result Could Reach For
But It's possible relationship
to things vastly more far
reaching may have been dis
closed in the statement from
Gov. Stanley.
The case :. was filed pur-
suant TO my request" the Gov
ernor said. II personally have
no doubt as to the validity Of

for an aIl-bus operation, the
new transit operator would
need at least 40 more buses
than Capital Transit has now,
according TO the consultant.
At $22, 900 q bus, he figured.
this would cost 30. 460, 900 and
might be financed for 10 per
cent down and the balance over
six years at 4 or 5 per cent
interest.
This. Of course. would be In
addition TO the cost Of buying
Capital Transit's present sup
ply Of buses or replacing them
at q similar cost-plus an extra
50 million TO "a million for
additional garage and mainte-
nance facilities.

money who Is willing to risk It
