Defenders
Ask Holt in
Arlington Vote

The Arlington Chapter Of the
Defenders Of State Sovereignty
and Individual Liberties today
challenged legality of tomorrow's
referendum on $6.7 million in
school and courthouse bonds.
The Defenders sent q telegram
asking Arlington Common
wealth's Attorney william J.
HasSan to halt the referendum.
Mr.. HasSan said he would advise
the Defenders that the matters
OF which they complain come
under control Of the State Elec-
tons Board.
According to the Defenders.
the referendum cannot be held
legally because Arlington regis
tration books are improperly
kept. The Defenders claim white
and colored voters are not listed
separately in accordance with
Virginia law.
1T is possible we might chal-
lenge the outcome" declared
Mr.. Rathbone.
He acknowledged that the De-
tenders made the same COM
plant before the previous bond
issue referendum without sue
cess, but declared that State
election officials have been maxi
ing an investigation since that
time.

Delegate Omer Hirst Of Fair
fax County has offered a plan
to ward off an outright tax re-
bellion. He would amend the
Governors fund Withholding
plan to provide that localities
under court desegregation orders
could hold back taxes in an
amount comparable to the
school funds they were due from
the State.
Legal Battle Seen
Mrs. Anne wilkins, member
of the Fairfax Board of County
Supervisors, predicted a bitter
legal battle if the Stanley plan
goes through without the Hirst
amendment.
ut is obvious that Fairfax
County is one of the areas which
will be faced with a Federal
court order prohibiting the de-
NAL of admission of any child
to a public school because Of
race" she declared. It had hoped
that a State pupil assignment
plan would be forthcoming to
aid us in the transition"
The Gray Commission orig.
inally recommended a combina.
ton pupil assignment and tut.
ton grant plan to meet the SUI
preme Court decision, but agreed
Wednesday to bypass that plan
in favor of the Governors pro-
gram.
1.-THE Gray Commissions re.
lection of the assignment por-
ton of it's original proposal
makes even more valid the 10th
districts rejection of the con-
stitutional amendment (for the
tuition grant planD last January"
said Mrs. Wilkins. 1T is hearten-
ing to note that the 10th dis
trict'S members on the commits
sion maintained face with their
constituents"
She was referring to State
Senator Charles r. Fenwick and
Delegate Harrison Mann Of Arl-
ington, who were among the IL
commission members to vote
against Gov. Stanley's plan.
II am certain that the citizens
of Fairfax County will not aban-
don their public schools, even
if the difference in cost must be
made up locally" Mrs. wilkins
added.
