Study Extension
|Sfirs Opposition

A move to give Arlington's Re-
assessment Board an additional
four months to complete its
work was greeted coldly yester-
day by the County Board.
A bill introduced in the Gen.
eral Assembly by Delegate VIII
liam l.. Winston would give the
Circuit Court the power to ex-
tend the reassessment deadline
from next December 81 to the
end Of April.
Each of the five members of
the Reassessment Board are paid
lat a per diem rate of $40. A
board is appointed for reassess-
ment every four years.
Yesterday, County Manager
"A. T. Lundberg warned against
the proposed deadline extension.
If the reassessment project is
extended to the end Of April, he
said in a memorandum, real
property tax bills can not be
mailed out by the county treas
urer in time for payment by
August is.
The board should be given in
creased personnel, Mr.. Lundberg
said. If it cannot finish its work
by February /. In the past, he
said, the maximum time extern
sion has been so days.
In line with Mr.. Lundberg's
recommendations, County Board
David Krupsaw called
for a detailed progress report.
One question was how much
money the board has been paid.
Finance Department records
show that the five reassessment
Board members have billed the
county for $31,940 as Of August
20. The pay for the individual
ranged from $500 to
$6.875.
The fact that the Reassess-
ment Board went directly to Mr..
Winston was a distinct dis
courtesy to the County Board, 81
Chairman Wesley w. Cooper said
yesterday.
The chairman Of the Re-
assessment Board is Maynard
Magruder. who retired from the
General Assembly for an unsuc-
ceSsful bid for election to the
treasurer's post last November.

Famed Tank

A long-forgotten American
version of the famed World Wal
I French Renault two-men in.

Fort Belvoir, Va, to the Gen

Early this year the tsilK was
found in a wooded section Of

flage instructor. It's a six-ton JOB

had its black, green and tar
paint camouflage as was the
custom in World War I.
But the drivers seat, its 81
Imillimeter gun and a few parts

were missing.
The instructor who discov.
erred it, Sergt. Alan Cochran OF
Forty Fort. Pa, reported it tc
his superior, Capt. John Keat-

Liberal Foction Rebuffed
On Arlington RocioI Issue

The school racial issu,
spanked a heated and noisy ex
change yesterday between op
posing factions on the Arlington
County Board.
Later, board members also haC
a lot to say on the matter of ont
member mailing out copies of {
speech at the taxpayers expense
The result Of the first argu.
ment was defeat of the more
liberal element in another eff.
fort to have the board take &
stand on pending segregation
bills.
This brief but brisk debate wa!
set of by a resolution suggested
by Curtis E. Tuthill, a boarc
candidate running on the Airing.
tonians for a Better County
ticket.
Stand Supported
The resolution called for the
board to oppose ANY legislation
which will damage or destroy its
locally controlled free public
school system, or which will de-
priye the community of its right
full share of State funds for pub.
lie education"
The two ABC members, DaviC
Krupsaw and Ralph Kaul. i'm.
mediately backed Mr.. Tuthill'l
proposal and proceeded to offel
financial statistics in support o.
this stand.
Mr.. .Kaul said that in the las
fiscal year Arlington received
from Virginia less than IS pei
cent of the total State take:
collected in the county. The fig
ure would drop to less than
per cent, he said, if Arlington
integrates its classrooms and un.
der Gov. Stanley's plan, thereby
loses State school funds.
Mrs. Leo Buchholz, member
Of the more conservative Airing
ton Independent Movement, sale
she had faith in the Virginia
General Assembly and has nc
fear THAT the public schools
will he destroyed"
Detection Urged
Chairman Wesley w. Cooper, q
conservative Democrat, said he
could not back the resolution
unless the phrase "locally-con-
trolled''-in reference to the
school system-was deleted. Leg
islation introduced by two oil
the county's four-member Dem
ocratic delegation-State Sena.
tor Charles r. Fenwick and Dele
gate Harrison Mann would
transfer the pupil assignment
power from school officials to g

To this, Mr.. Krupsaw replied
that Mr.. Cooper had not hest

from elective to appointive.

Stanley Men See Defect
OF Local Option Move

RICHMOND. Sept. is (R.-
Stanley administration floor
leaders today claimed a firm
majority of at least 81 votes TO
knock a local-option amendment
out Of the key fund-cutoff school
segregation bill when 1t comes
Iup for action in the Virginia
House on Monday.
The idea behind the amend
ment is the big bone Of conten-
ton on which the special school
session of the assembly has been
gnawing for most of the session.
It would permit a locality to
determine for itself whether it
wanted to lose State funds
rather than see schools inte-
grated. or to operate under an
assignment plan--and possibly a
degree of controlled indignation
Gov. Stanley is committed
to a program designed to pre-
vent the admission of a single
Negro child to any white school.
And those quarterbacking his
program in the legislature said
they were sticking by their stand
Iof no compromise on the total
segregation principle. They re-
gard the rider on the bill as
an anathema.
Pressed for Time
But a new call for compromise
nevertheless came from the Re-
publican leader in the assembly,
Senator Ted Dalton of Radford.
He and Democratic Senator
ArmiStead Boothe of Alexandria,
who unsuccessfully offered a
pupil assignment plan of their
own at last winters regular ses-
sion and reinstated it this time,
joined in a statement calling
for action to break the stalemate
in the assembly so the session
could be wrapped UP by the end
of next week.
Dalton and Boothe conceded
there was considerable sentiment
in favor Of the Governors plan
but argued that the pupil as
signment plan was still the best
hope of preserving segregation
within Virginia under the law.
Time is important because
court proceedings old and new
are facing our people and they
need help now" their statement
said.
But. the Senator's went on,
Since conditions vary through
out the State, we are willing toI
