State Should

RICHMOND. Va. July 9 R.-
The opinion Of Attorney General
]. Lindsay Almond. jr.. that
Virginia should quit the public
park business met with approval
today from the chairman of the
State Board Of Conservation and
Development.
The chairman, c. s. Carter Of
Bristol, said he was inclined to
believe" that Mr.. Almonds sug-

Igestion in the wake Of a park
segregation decision by a Federal
judge was the wise solution.
Mr.. Carter emphasized, how
ever, that he was speaking only
for myself and am not trying to
mold the opinion" Of the 13-
member board he heads.
Meanwhile, Randolph Odell,
Commissioner of State Parks,
said If any Negroes attempt ad-
mittance to State parks this
week end they will be politely
and tactfully denied"
Can't Use Parks
Mr.. Odell said no new instruc-
tions had been issued park sup
erintendents but in a recent
|reiteration Of established policy.
the park heads had been in
|structed to deny Negroes day use
LOT the parks.
Mr.. Almond, the states CHIEF
legal officer. made his comment
to reporters after studying the
13-page opinion of Federal Judge
Walter E. Hoffman enjoinine
Virginia from denying Negroes
the use Of Seashore State Park
ut seems like a century to me
that I have been carrying the
burden of this desperate fight
said Mr.. Almond. "I'm willing
to continue the fight to the last
ditch. and then dig another
ditch.
Matter Of Policy
However, the matter Of future
disposition Of Virginia's public
park system is one Of policy re-
siding with the executive branch
OF the government. II they want
my advice, they'll get 1t and get
1t quick. 1t is this:
Get out Of the public park
business as quickly and as COM
Ipletely as possible"
Whether Virginia will appeal
the Federal Court decision
handed down at Norfolk yes
terday, has not been determined,
MIR. Almond said.
Other members of the Board

ment who could be reached to-
day declined to express an
