School Bonds
Farley Held

RICHMOND, Dec. / (P.-Gov
Stanley conferred with advisers
yesterday on a new problem con-
fronting Virginia localities de-
string to sell school construction
bonds.
The conference came two days
after proposed 81 million
Hopewell school bond sale failed
to attract a single bid from in
vestment companies.
Gov. Stanley was closeted with
members of the State Treasury
Board, the State Retirement
Board and others for discussions
Iof what can be done about the
matter. The group will meet
again on December 10.
The failure of the Hopewell
bond sale to draw any bids drew
comment from one source that
this reflected the psychological
effect on bond buyers of Vir-
ginia's new school legislation
providing that State funds be
withheld from any school which
mixes the races.
j. B. Woodward. jr., of New
port News, chairman of the
State Retirement Board, tolc
reporters he felt there is "a rea.
sonable, practical solution" tC
the problem. He did not say
what this solution was but par.

the matter of using some of the
money in the State Retirement
Fund for the purchase of schoo

Changes to Speed Transit
Draw Truckers Worninq

A go-slow flag against quick
traffic changes requested by D. c.
Transit System was raised yes
terday by the District Trucking
Association.
In letter to the District Com
missioners, the Public Utilities
Commission, and the Director of
Vehicles and Traffic, D. Y. K.
Howat, president of the associa-
ton. declared the group SIS great
ly concerned about rapid changes
in traffic regulations at the re-
quest of the D. c. Transit Com
pany."
Noting that its member COM
panies operate some 10000 pro-
perty carrying vehicles, Mr..
Howat said:
I'VE are entirely in accord with
the need and ACCESSIBILITY of an
efficient. fast moving transit
system but wish to suggest that
in an effort to aid in obtaining
that transit efficiency. the Of
flcials of the government of the
District of Columbia do not per-
NIT traffic changes which may
be detrimental to the District and
its residents"
o. Roy Chalk, new owner of
the transit company, has been
pressing for quick approval of
nine-point program to speed up
transit service and cut company
cost.
OverSights Feared
Mr.. Howat declared the asso-
cations members are afraid
that in making rapid decisions
on changing traffic regulations.
through possible oversight, with
out intent and without hearing
variety of views, changes may
be made which will prevent or
seriously hamper the flow of
goods into the downtown section.
Regulations which would pre-
vent movement of goods to and
from downtown Washington
would have catastrophe effect
on the entire community.
In such event. stores would
not have merchandise, Offices
would not have supplies, buildr
ings would be cold as coal and
oil could not be delivered. restau-
rants would not have food. etc.
This would cause loss of bust
ness, depreciation of property
values and great loss of taxes
both on real estate. corporate
and personal income.
I'VE are particularly concerned
about possible further restric-
ton on use of streets and re-
striction on standing at curbs
for loading and unloading the
vehicles of our tax-paying mem
Der companies.
Mr.. Chalk asked for a perm
anent ban on parking along curb:
