To End Dalton Threat

method for the first time. it looks
as If the Democrats don't want
any wounds left over from a
primary campaign.
That happened four years ago,
when the organization nomi-
mated Fred L. Hoback over tine
independent thinking Democrat,
John Spiers Of Radford. But Mr.
Dalton came out the winner
that fall. Mr.. Hoback since has
gone to his political reward by
being appointed Circuit Court
Judge by the Democratic State
administration.
The 21st district is made up
of Roanoke, Franklin and Mont
gomery Counties and the City
Iof Radford. all just to the west
lof Roanoke.
Mr.. Nininger is probably the
most formidable opponent the
Democrats could choose in the
area. He is a very popular school
superintendent, who is volun-
tarily retiring at the end of this
month. In populous Roanoke
County. there have developed in
recent years the so-called school
crowd"-just as in Washington s
suburbs-who WELD a potent bloc

self in the activities of women's
organizations, PTAs and similar
activities-all supporters of MIR
Nininger's school policies. Po-
Ilitically, there is a strong Dem
ocratic pocket around Blacks
burg in Mr.. Dalton's own Mont
gomery County.
There already is a draft-Dal-
ton-for- Governor move under
foot for 1857. 1t is a State e-wide
movement-not just local. A
Dalton defeat, or at least a close
vote, would considerably lower
his prestige, Democrats feel. II
also would hurt next years
chances of his political progeny
Mr.. Poff, in the Congressional
fight, it is held.
Reports are that the Demo-
cratic organization is getting
ready to pour substantial funds
into the Dalton -Nininger fight
The extent to which it is tax

dicated by the fact that State
Attorney General j. Lindsay
Almond. jr.. will keynote the

on the segregation and tax struc-
Iture issues.
In the face Of the recent SUI

pose any move to end public
school education in the State
and said he would support stead
Ifastly the retention Of the COM
lpulsory school attendance law.
He also said he opposes a sales
tax but told the group he could
see no other way to pay for
Northern Virginia's staggering"
need for more schools, better
highways and intensive treat
ment instead Of merely custodial
care for the States mental pa
Itients.
Mr.. Boothe's stand to oppose
Iintegration but back the reten-
Ition Of the public school system
was echoed by the other three
candidates.
Mr.. GaSson proposed a modi-

hospitals and the setting up of
10 highway districts in the State
