State Funds 10.
Closed Schools

RICHMOND, April 26 (P.-
Gov. Stanley says it's his policy
for the State not to attempt to
operate public schools in any
community that closes these
schools rather than yield to
racial indignation.
His statement came after a
conference yesterday with a
delegation from Prince Edward
County which told the Governor
the county's public schools will
be closed if racial indignation is
required.
They made that very plain
and very definite" Gov. STAN
ley told reporters at a press con-
ference later. "They told me
there was general accord on this
among the whites"
Asked what Virginia would dc
about operating Prince Edward
schools if the county suspended
its local public schools, the
Governor replied that should thu
county withdraw its local fl.
nancial support for the schools
State funds would not be avail
able to it.
Lists Major Points
Members of the Prince Ed
ward delegation referred al
questions regarding the meet.
ing to the Governor. Mr.. Stan
ley told the reporters the dis
cussion brought out these points
Prince Edward residents ex.
pect 95 per cent or more of the
county's white residents will sigr
new statement affirming theil
support of plans to halt public
school operations rather thar
have any integration.
County residents neither want
nor seek a special session of the
Legislature to consider school,
legislation insofar as their county
is concerned.
Mr.. Stanley said he told the
delegation he was continuing to
watch the situation and would
only call one when the active
need for such call appeared"
No Time Limit Set
Prince Edward County fell di-
Irectly under the United States
Supreme Courts decision out
having segregation in the public
schools. Last year a three-judge
Federal court directed that the
Icounty'S schools be operated on
"a racially non-discriminatory
basis but set no time limit for
compliance.
Last Monday, counsel for the
National Association for the Adj
Ivancement of Colored People
filed motion with the Federal
District Court asking that Prince
Edward be required to complete
the desegregation of its public
schools by next September.
Before the Federal District
Courts action in the Prince Ed
ward school case last year, citi-
zens of the county formed pri-
vate educational corporation and
raised about 100000 in cash
and pledges for private school,
operations.

 "Born Yesterday

Born Yesterday, the comedy smash hit by Carson Kanin that chalked up a four-year run in New York and has delighted audiences all over the world, will be presented by the Anch- orage Little Theatre at the Nun icipal Auditorium for three nights, beginning June 28 and playing through Saturday, June 30. Curtain time is 8:30 pm.
 Bernice Krula, publicity chair man, said this week, We hope some of the Palmer theatre-go- CTS will make it to Anchorage for opening night on Thursday, June 28. If not that night, per hape they can get in on Friday or Saturday night, she said. eff a group desires to come, we'd like to know. especially if a block of reserved tickets are wanted. General admission is $1.50 and the reserved seats are S200. We'll look forward to sec ing some of the Palmer theatre lovers in the Born Yesterday audience, Mrs. Krula added.
 This laugh romp. which deals with the chicanery of a profit eer in the postwar Washington D.C.) and the dumb ex-chorine he has brought along, has been directed by Jack Wandell.
 What Brooks Atkinson in the New York Times called "the in- candescent hilarity' of the con- edy, Born Yesterday" derives from the fact that the rough neck who has come to the capit- al to put over big swindle, sud- denly sees that the "dolI" in his entourage has a dubious amount of social graees. Ruth Baker will be seen as the blonde who makes trouble for the tycoon when she starts to think for herself. Col onel David s. Woods of Elmen- derf AFB portray the junk czar
 Producer of the show is Midge KranZ.
 Tickets may be purchased at the box office on performance nights, or in advance for the reserved section.

VA ACTS TO CHANNEL BUYING TOO SMALL. FIRMS

Veterans Administration and the Small Business Administra- ton have acted jointly to assure small firms a fair share of VA business.
 Harvey V. Higley, Administra- tor of Veterans Affairs, and Wen dell B. Barnes, Administrator of the Small Business Administra- ton set up joint policy for setting aside many purchases for exclusive competitive award to small firms.
 Mir. Higley said VA spends ap- proximately $200,000,000 year for goods and services of all types and that more than 50 per- cent of this business now goes to small firms.
 The new policy is designed to increase the proportion of awards to small firms where possible, ac- eording to the joint statement by MT Higley and MT. Barnes.
 The VA agreement provides that centralized purchase require ments, with an estimated value of $5,000 or more, will be reviewed by representatives of the two agencies.
 Those procurements found suitable for award to small busi- ness will be set aside for exclu- sive competitive award among small firms. Either the entire amount of the individual pur- chase or a designated part of fl may be reserved for small busi- ness in this manner.
 The agreement also provides for the Small Business Adminis- tration to supplement the VA Bidders List with qualified firms which are registered with them.
 VA will continue to cooperate with the Small Business Admin istration in it's certificate of com potency program. Under this pro- gram, Small Business Adminis- tration can certify to the teehni- cal and financial ability of a

Schools-A Crisis Still
~ SYLVIA PORTER

Now begins the 18th back-to.
school month since World War II
but as far as solving the criti-
cal school and teacher problem
is concerned, the Nation is not
yet running fast enough to stand
still.
Millions of youngsters are
going back to damned classrooms
in obsolete, makeshift firetraps.
Millions of parents are pam
fully aware that their children
are being taught by men and
women who are either appal-
lingly oyer-worked or woefulIy
unprepared for their vital role.
For even at this late date, we
are still suffering from the huge
gap in school facilities created
during the years of depression
and war when school construc-
ton was at a minimum.
Making the gap even wider has
been the explosive upsurge in the
baby population since World War
III. In the next few weeks over
90 million will be enrolling
against 20 million only 10 years
ago.
Picture Is Bleak

OF boom has pulled teachers out
OF the education system into
Ihigher-paying industrial Jobs.
The need for qualified elemen-
tary and high school teachers
this September is conservatively
estimated at 175.0OO. Even If
every member of this years
class of qualified college grad
yates enters the system-and
there's not a chance of this-the
deficit still would be 10000.
The area which has no school
crisis this month is the rare one.
Actually, the best progress has
been made by cities which have
fair financial resources and which
have not experienced a great
baby boom. In most fast-growing
communities, in the suburbs and
rural sections now being indus
trialized, the problem is as bad as
ever.
Money, money, money-that's
the heart of the problem.
State and local school districts
have raised school taxes to all
time highs. are borrowing to the
hilt and are spending peak SIS
billion a year to build a record
number of schools.
Federal Funds Cited
But this money is building
only about $1,000 classrooms q

High production in the fourth

Woodworking industries to a

pared with 1929 billion in 1855.
Steel magazine reports.
The trade weekly said no
major labor problems are in
sight for the remainder Of the
year but that a shortage of steel
due to the recent strike of steel
workers will hamper some oper-
atoms.
The magazine said steel-con-

Freight car - Deliveries will
hold at between 5000 and $500
"a month for the remainder of
1856. Shortage of steel plates
will limit production.
Machinery - Machine tool

Appliances-This years good
performance will continue in the
