.Courf-Ordered
State Tax on
Schools Hinted
Possibility Raised
In Prince Edward
Segregation Case
BY ALEX r. PRESTON
star stan Correspondent

RICHMOND, Nov. 15.-The
possibility that Federal courts
could compel State and local
governments to levy taxes to
support public schools has been
raised in one of Virginia's racial
desegregation suits.
The question arose shortly
before Federal District Judge
Sterling Hutchinson yesterday
deferred for at least Is days a
ruling on the Prince Edward
County school segregation case.
His opinion may decide the
validity of the States new legis-
Ilative program to preserve pub
lie school segregation.
Attorney T. Justin Moore. ST.,
representing the Prince Edward
County School Board, told the
court that. under the package
of bills enacted By a special ses-
sion of the General Assembly
last September, lit is conceivable
that a local school board can
operate its schools on an inte-
grated basis, but without State
funds
Held PrOblematical
He quickly added, however.
whether it would happen in
Prince Edward is problematical.
They (the Negro complainants)
are apparently willing to have no
schools if they can't have things
their way"
Thurgood Marshall of New
York. chief counsel for the Ma
Itional Association for the Ad-
Ivancement of Colored Peaple.
declared. 1.-THE county super
visorS Of Prince Edward have
made it clear that they would
not contribute money to operate
Iintegrated schools and the State
law would operate to withholf
funds. How can anybody obtain
relief in Prince Edward County?"
One Of the new laws provides
for the withholding of State
funds from the primary or Sec
Iondary system of any locality in
(which there is an intcgrated
school.
Problem Is Puzzle
your question. Judge Hutche-
son said to Mr.. Marshall, poses
a problem which is one Of con-
lcern, AS I understand it, the
State would withhold funds. The
Board of Supervisors has ex-
pressed its intention not to pro-
vide funds and the School Board
has no powers to raise funds.
What can the court do?"
"You can require them to
adopt policy that will not deny
admission Of a child to a school
on the basis Of race" Mr.. Mar
shall responded.
He said there is a legal
Iprecedent-although he did not
read the citation in court-ln
(which a Federal court COM
PEELED a county ito make a
levy" dmpose taxes). But, he ex-
Iplained. in that case it was for
the collection of money owed the
Federal Government.
1T poses a question which we
have not yet reached in this
case" Mr.. Marshall said. He
said the point may be raised at
a later time. If necessary.
Three Motions Up
Before the court yesterday
were three motions, two by the
State to dimiSs the Negroes
petition and one by the Negroes
for an order for Prince Edward
County to desegregate by Sep
TENDER. 1857.
The Prince Edward suit was
one of the five original desegre-
cation cases that resulted in the
Supreme Courts 1854 decision
barring racial segregation in pub
lie schools.

Bake an Old-Time
Election Cake

IN SOME WAYS election day 125
years ago was celebrated in much the
same way as it is today. 1t was a
time of friends visiting back and forth
to discuss campaign promises and can

dropped by, it was the custom to serve
a bite to eat during the visit. In New
England on these occasions, a yeast
raised cake filled with nuts and fruits
and called Election Day Cake was
served. Each housewife We'd to make
hers better than any other in the area.
Now that television has made it the
custom to get together to watch returns

lection Of our children"
Fairfax Delegate Omer Hirst
opposed the Gray plan and re-
fused to sign the resolution.
1.-THE resolution has merit in
that it would permit more time
for the Legislature to enact laws
dealing with the problem" Mr.
Hirst said. However, we are
running a calculated risk in moi

Name
Why do they call it Ana
costa?
Originally, on Captain
John Smiths map, drawn
in 1912, it was listed as
Nacotchtank, after a. tribe
Of friendly Indians he en-
countered there. In a jour-
nal by the trader Henry
Fleet, in 1882, the form
Nacostine was used.
Reports sent to Rome by
Jesuit missionaries added
an "A"-making it variously
Anac0stine and Anacostan
with the explanation that
the Indians often used only
the meat of words, drop
ping prefixes and suffixes.
From that 1t became Ana
costa, which it remained
until 1865. Then the Post
ONCE designation was
changed to Uniontown. But
there was too much con-
fusing 1t with Uniontown,
Pa, and the name was
changed back to Anacostia
In 1859.
