2 Bus Operators
Show Interest in
Petersburg Run

PETERSBURG, Va, June 90
P.-The owners of two sub
urban bus lines indicated today
they're interested in coming to
the rescue of Petersburg and
Colonial Heights citizens when
the Petersburg Transit Co. shuts
down operations next month.
Petersburg Transit announced
yesterday it would cease opera
lions July %, because of finan-
cial losses and inability to come
to a contract agreement with
the motor coach union
Herman B. Maitland. who
operates two suburban buses and
a charter service here, said he
expects to discuss the posi-
bility" of operating a bus serv-
ice for Petersburg and Colonial
Heights, which have a combined
population of more than Al, 900.
Another bus line operator said
he would study the possibility of
taking over the city service.
This operator. asked not to be
identified.
Meantime. School Superin-
tendent John D. Meade of Pc
tersburg said the city might APP
peal to the State for school-bus
service in the event service is
suspended. Petersburg Transit
currently operates school buses
for the city's 1900 students
as well as regular city trans
portation.

Virginiians Cool
ToUnited Front
For Democrats

RICHMOND, June % up. -
State Democratic Chairman
Thomas Blanton says Virginia
Democratic Committee probably
won't consider a suggestion for
a united Southern front before
the State party convention here
July 81.
Governor George B. Thinner
man, jr., of South Carolina has
proposed that. the South submit
united front before the national
convention in Chicago August 13
Mr.. Blanton said there are no
plans afoot for an early meeting
OF the party's state central COM
mlttee. The committee is sched-
uled to meet the night before
the July 81 convention here.
He acknowledged receipt of a
letter from Gov. Zimmerman but
reserved comment on how he
feels about the South Carolina
proposal, which includes a sug-
geStion that southern states
leave the way open for new con-
ventions after the national con-
vention has been held in Chi
cago.
While Mr.. Blanton was being
noncommittal, two Virginia rep
resentatives were speaking up in
favor of the Zimmerman move
Representative Tuck of the 5th
district said he was convinced
that it is more important than
ever before that the southern
states stand together and present
a united front at the national
convention.
Representative Watkins Abbitt
OF the 4th district said he
thought it well for people of like
mind to get together for as con-
servatively-minded a platform as
possible {"

At one of the hearings, in Alex

We're certainly going to think
about the proposal" said Mr..
Hagood.
At Bristol. the commission was
given a financial blueprint of
how a local sales tax is operating

ations and reducing bonded in

the State that has been given

RICHMOND, June % R.-
The bushel-barrel of testimony
thrust at Virginia's tax study
commission during six public
hearings apparently hasn't
tipped the revenue scales in
favor of a State sales tax.
State Senator j. d. Hagood OF
Halifax County. chairman Of the
commission, said today the H.
man unit still has IAN open
mind" about the need fol a sales
levy to produce more money for
commonwealth functions.
From another source. it was
learned only one commission
member is definitely welded to
the sales tax. This is Delegate
Sam Pope Of Southampton
County. a man who has been
plunking the levy ever since he
came to the Legislature in 1916.
View of Needs
Mr.. Hagood said the hearings,
which ended Wednesday in Bris-
toll. had helped considerably in
that they had provided the COM
mission with a broad view of the
revenue needs of various local
titles.
But our big job is still
ahead" said Mr.. Hagood. We've
got to sift through all the in
formation and facts presented
and begin making a detailed
analysis of the financial needs"
With it all, the Halifax physi-
clan predicted the commission
would be able to come up with a
report for Gov. Stanley by Sep
TENDER l. 1t is possible the re-
port will be considered by a spe-
Icial session of the General
Assembly.
More than 80 States now have
"a safes TAX and 1t has not been
unusual in recent years to hear
Virginia politicians remark sits
coming sooner or later"
The biggest push in behalf of
the levy occurred at the 60-day
legislative session which ended
in March. Mr.. Pope led the sales
takers with a fairly large sprin-
king of support from rural law
makers.
Local Needs
Mr.. Hagood admitted the hear
ings had pointed up the plight of

disclosure of unauthorized ex-
pansion Of cattle and farm oper-
atoms at the hospital at Marion
Va.
The investigators described DR..
Joseph r. Blalock, superintend-
ent since 1888. as well qualified"
Tor the position from a tech
meal point of view" But. they
said. he was neither qualified
TO handle nor interested in" adj
ministering the financial and
business affairs of the hospital
They recommended he be re-
moved but that because of his
technical background and pro-
fessional skill" the hospital
board consider utilizing his Sery-
ices at another institution in a
medical capacity other than a
supervisory one"
DR.. Blalock, So, a graduate of
Wake Forest College. Johns Hop
Ikins University and Columbia
University, "has expressed a will
ingness" to take such an assign
ment, the committee said.
Narcotics Use Cited
The committee recommended
that DR.. r. G. Blackwelder, Sc.
clinical director. since October
/, 1854, "be permitted to resign"
The committee said DR.. Blalock
in a memorandum November
Is. 1855, had called DR.. Black
welder's attention to "his ex-
cessive use Of narcotics" and had
warned this situation cannot
be allowed to continue"
1t was learned tonight that
DR.. Blackwelder resigned several
weeks ago from the institution
to take a position with a hos
pital in West Virginia.
Also recommended was the
dismissal Of DR.. j. S. Dean, chief
OF service. The committee said
DR.. Dean has been an alcoholic
problem since becoming a mem
Der of the staff" July is, 1851
But the report added that i'll
medical examination determines
DR.. Dean has corrected this
affiiction, his professional tai
ents might be used to a better
advantage at another institution
in the State hospital system"
