In prompt and stirring reply
to the injunction banning the
National Association for the Ad-
vancement of Colored People
from Alabama, the Negro people
of that state have already set
up another organization with a
militant anti-Jim Crow pro-
gram.
The new organization was
formed in Birmingham, the
largest city in Alabama and one
of the worst Jim Grow hellS
in the South. It's name is the
Alabama Christian Movement
for Human Rights and it's goal
is complete integration.
The ACMTIR was first project
ed on June 4, three days after
the anti-NAACP INDUCTION, by
a meeting of eleven religious
and civic leaders of Birming-
hams Negro community. This
committee determined to call
mass meeting to form a new or
ganization.

She had planned the occasion carefully,
as a symbol, perhaps, and an affirmation.
There was a reason for this. Their mar
riage had taken place, without friends or
relatives, in rather forIorn registry on the
West Coast, because Chris had had to
leave on an unexpected assignment in
Alaska.
Two years later, when Tony was born,
Chris had been off on patrol duty, and
she'd had only the hospital and some
especially kind nurses and few sympa-
thetic friends. But now the baby was three
Evening star., 1956-12-30

months old, and they were really settled in
a home near the big naval base. Settled,
and together most Of the time, except for
those missions. A united family.
And SO she'd planned the christening
with care. The small house was shining
clean and filled with flowers, and there
were to be frosted cakes and champagne
and twenty guests to witness the ceremony.
For the baby she had long gown Of lawn
and lace that had belonged in the family
for generations. And for herself she had
found dress that was rather old-faSh-
ioned in design, high-necked faille with
a demure white collar and soft bow.
This was not accidental; in fact it was
unconsciously part of the symbol Ever
since falling in love with Chris, she'd been
stretched tight trying to be the kind of
person she wasn't - casual and easy
going and modern.
Chris was jet pilot, but he was
also many-sided person. He liked to fish
for hours by a quiet stream and play poker
and hold long discussions on such sub
jectS as the philosophy Of the atomic age.
In appearance he was touchingly young,
with his crew cut and lean, lanky build.
She had never meant to fall in love with
him, and his proposal had been in the
form of denial. He'd said, MARY, you
should never marry navy flyer. You're
not the type for it," And he d added mis-
erably, by that mean, you're the kind
of girl who needs quiet life and someone
she can count on. You know, slippers by
the fire and all that"
1t was true, entirely true. But she
couldn't help herself, and neither could he.
Sam Anderson, the navy chap
lain, arrived first. He was their friend as
well as their minister, and he brought with
him small prayer book, with the baby's
name inscribed in gold on the smooth
ivory cover: Anthony Wayne Burke.
Sam, it's beautiful" she said. And it
makes him seem so grown up; like a real
person. -" She smiled, warmed and a
little incredulous. Chris called him Skip
per, and she called him Snookums and
Sweetie-Pie. :. But here it was, spelled
out in gold, a mans name: Anthony
Wayne Burke.
Come in and see how I've arranged
things" she said. Chris isn't back yet.
He was called over to the base an hour
ago. When we planned this, we thought

Alexandra May
GET School Aid

Alexandra school officials are
hopeful that new provisions of
a Federal school aid law will
bring the city at least part of
100000 construction grant now
being sought.
Supt. T. C. Williams said
chances Of receiving any money
under the program appear to be
slim but are better than in re-
cent years, when Alexandra re-
ceived no money at all. Nearby
Jurisdictions have been sharing
in the grants. but Alexandria
has been keeping up with its
building needs and has been in
eligible. the superintendent said.
The city is receiving about
$685. 900 this year from the Fed
eral Government for mainte-
nance and operations under
Public Law 874. The new APP
plication. reported to the school
board last night, requests $519.-
900. and the superintendent has
estimated that about $400, 900
of this amount will be granted.
A low bid of $665 $50 has been
received for construction of the
Lyles-Crouch elementary school
but no funds are available. City
Council has approved bond is
sue for school projects but has
not yet sold the bonds because
of uncertain market conditions.
School board members said a
meeting will be sought with City
Council to consider the financing
problem.
In other business, a board
committee headed by Joseph w.
Leverenz recommended consid-
Grafton Of a new school district
organization.
The present six member school
board would have seven men,
bers. all appointed by the City
Council on an at-large basis.
The city's present two school
districts would be abolished.
The study was made after a
request from the annexed terri
tory for creation Of a third
school district entitled to three
board members. The board will
review the Leverenz report at its
meeting in January.
A donation Of a half-acre Of
property by Mr.. and Mrs. Mark

Estimates on Population
Urged for Fund Formulas

The use Of annual population
estimates in distribution of Vir-
GINA tax revenues was recon-
mended today by the Northern
Virginia Planning and Economic
Development Commission to cor
rect distribution formulas which
are costing the nearby area mil
lions of dollars.
In the report. released today
by the commissions Fiscal At
fairs Committee. the commits
sion estimated "conservatively'
that Northern Virginia will lose
more than So million of its
"rightful share Of State liquor
profits alone during the decade
of 1850 to 1860.
The latest In series of fiscal
reports also criticizes the State
welfare program, which it says is
among the most meager in the
United States" and which makes
1t difficult for a locality to raise
assistance payments on its own
Long Troubled
The use of outdated popula-
ton figures in fund distribu-
ton formulas has long been a
sore spot with Northern Vir-
GINA localities. This area
which has experienced a phe-
nomenal growth during the last
several years. is getting State
funds on the basis of the 1856
census. The 1850 census showed
Northern Virginia with $685.
persons. while the estimated
population now is nearly 100000
The report says that records
available on taxes reported BY
locality of collection show the
four Northern Virginia jurisdic'
lions paid more than $11 million
or nearly Is per cent of all the
taxes collected by the State il
1855. The jurisdictions-Alex'
andria and Falls Church anc
Arlington and Fairfax Counties
received only $50 million. OF
6.3 per cent, of these funds bach
from the State.
Most States permit the use o.
special census figures in func

says. Virginia does not anc

lied for growth" it says.
Needs Increase
while population increase;
create major demands for new
schools, sewers and other facili,
ties. as well as more teachers
policemen and all kinds Of sery,
ices, the population increases
bring the localities no immediate
increase in State funds" thu
report adds. Local taxpayers
must fill in the gaps or take thu
consequences in lower standards
of education, public facilities anC
all municipal programs"
Northern Virginia is, in effect
substituting many other com
munities in the State. the report
shows. For instance, Lee County
paid in only $124.814 in 1885 but
received $1.152,981. according t.
figures in the report.
The report asks that annua
population estimates be made BY
the Population Bureau of the
University of Virginia and thai
these be used in fund distribu.
ton. The commission says that
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-12-13

while many other States allow
special cenSuses to be taken,
these would be costly to the To-
calities and some localities might
have them taken and others not.
The commission also was criti-
cal of the trend in Virginia for
more and more funds to be
lfunneled through Richmond to
the localities. The report said
that "a generation ago Virginia
counties raised, by their own
local efforts, about II per cent
of the funds they expended. To-
day they raise a roughly As per
cent and depend on the State
for about the same proportion,
the Federal Government provid-
ing the rest"
More for Needy
However, Northern Virginia
localities raise between so and
rs per cent of the funds they
expand, one reason being the in
equitable sta tie distribution
formulas.
In the section on public as
sistance for the needy, the re-
port said there is a clear need
for a more adequate program of
aid to the needy in Virginia"
| Public assistance expenditures
in Northern Virginia during 1855
Amounted to $1.50 per capita
compared to SAT- for all Of Vir-
ginia and $16.52 over the Nation.
While the high income North
ern Virginia area has a relatively
small number of needy cases, the
Jurisdictions are prevented from
adequately providing for those
who do need assistance because
of the low standards set by the
State. the report says.
