AppeoIsCourt
Hears Plea
On Schools

RICHMOND. Sept. 20 (P.-
The REFUSAL Of Federal District
Judge Sterling Hutchinson to set
a definite date for desegrega-
ton of Prince Edward County
schools was wrong. says q brief
filed with the United States 9Th
Circuit Court Of Appeals this
week.
Attorneys for the National
Association for the Advance
ment Of Colored People con-
tended in the brief that Judge
Hutcheson's approach to the
problem was factually. soci-
ologically and legally wrong.
They asked the appellate court
10 reverse his decision and re-
turn the case TO him to set q
definite degeneration date.
Judge Hutchinson, in an
opinion released in January.
refused to set q definite time
for desegregation.
He said action which might
cause mixing In the schools at
this time. resulting in closing
them. would be highly and per-
manently injurious to children
Of both races.
Relations between members
Of the two races in the county
would be adversely affected and
a final solution of the vexinR
problems delayed as q conse-
quence."
The brief filed by NAACP
lawyers said "the District Court
seems to have rested its posi-
ton upon the erroneous as
sumption that changes in atti-
tude must precede desegrega-
ton. Public opinion and ac-
ceptance are important factors
In obtaining effective desegre-
CATION. but in many instances
they follow rather than pre-
cede the enforcement Of non
segregation.
Examination Of actual
changes from public school
segregation to nonsegregation
clearly indicates that resist
ance to desegregation is greater
in anticipation of the change
to nonsegregation than where
desegregation actually occurs. /"

HEADLINE PERSONALITY
Browns Chief Aim:
Full Rights for Negro

Edwin Cicero Brown, who
has had a big hand in Arling-
tons desegregation case. has
one big aim in life--''to do all
! can to attain full citizenship
for the Negro race"
segregation makes second
class citizens Of Negroes, said
the stocky built. gray-haired
lawyer. When the progress of
Negroes is impeded, the prog
ress Of the Nation is impeded.
Certainly segregation impedes
the progress Of the Negro.
I'VE want to be treated like
everyone else. We want all the
educational opportunities given
the white people. There is no
such thing as separate but
equal.
Moreover, the Negroes have
to live here with the white man.
so why shouldn't he go to
school to learn to live with
him?"
Leaning back in his leather
chair in his Office in the Negro
section of Alexandria, Mr..
Brown said the Negroes aren't
seeking to associate with white
people on q social basis. We're
not concerned with that. That's
q myth that minority of
people. mostly Southerners. use
to back up their opposition to
migration"
Native Of Oklahoma

tive for the Northern Virginia

They didn't call out the SOL

Big Troffic Toll Alarms
Prince Georges Police
By CHARLES A. McALEER

Prince Georges County police
are alarmed at the soaring
trafhc death toll in the county,
greatest on record for . Janu-
airy September is period.
Highway accidents through
mid-September have killed 81
persons. q toll topping any in
the Washington area. including
the greater-populated District
of Columbia.
This is only nine under the
county's record for a full year
70 in Iceland eight fewer
than the SO recorded during
1856.
Last year. September was the
worst trafiic fatality month, but
even with the Is deaths rec
orded then. the total for the
year by the months end was
only 46.
10 Deaths This Month
There have been 10 deaths
so far this month alone. an
indication that September
could wind up as the worst
single month in the county's
history.
County Police Chief George
Panagoulis reported today
there has been an almost three
to-one increase in the number
Of arrests, as police stepped up
efforts to check traffic offenses.
AS Of the end of August,
Chief Panagoulis noted. $3.50
arrests were recorded by county
police compared to 2,811 in the
same period last year.
Even though the rate of ar
rests has increased by 242 per
cent" he said, Il personally
feel that without proper public
cooperation. the traffic deaths
are going to continue.
Urges New Safety Device
The police chief said there
should be another organized
county campaign to promote
traffic safety. He noted that
many civic. veterans and other
organizations have their own
safety campaigns. but said the
time has come again to lump
them into one.
The public has equal re-
sponsibility with the police de-
partment." Chief Panagoulis
said. They are the violators."
He suggested holding another
countrywide safety meeting.
similar to the one called a year
ago by the Prince Georges
Traffc Safety Committee when
the toll reached 46. He also said
he would ask the county COM
missioners to proclaim october
as "Save-A-Life Month" or
something 10 that effect.
