Veteran Worker
TO Retire From
WiIdIife Service

COLUMBUS - Herbert B. Eag-
on, Director of the Department of
Natural Resources, has announced
that George Emmett, Information
and Education Chief, will retire
from the department effective Oc-
tober %, 1857.
Mr.. Emmett has concluded an
active career in conservation that
began in 1899. His first position
was a lecturer with the Division of
Conservation. Within a few years
he was appointed exhibits director,
position he held until recently
For the six months period preced-
ing his retirement he was Chief of
the newly organized Information
and Education Section at the de-
partment level.
The majority of Emmett's efforts
were in the field of information
and education. The Departments
exhibit at the Ohio State Fair has,
in recent years, been one of the
most attractive and effective on
the grounds-it has received ma
tional recognition. The travelling
exhibits and displays shown at
many county fairs, field days,
sportsmens shows, and schools
were largely due to his efforts.
/ Because of this outstanding serv-
ice to the cause of conservation in
Ohio, the Ohio Conservation Con-
gress named Emmett the conserva-
tion man-of-the-year in 1854. In
1855 he was honored with the Co
lumbus Dispatch-Ohio State Journ-
al Charities Bronze Plaque in rec
ognition of his devotion to duty and
his outstanding work in the field
of visual-education.
In announcing his decision to re-
tire, Mr. Emmett wrote to Director
Eagon in part: THE decision for
me is not easy, as / have come to

department And as you know, con-
servation is more than skin deep; it
gets into the blood. l would like to
have it understood that mine is not
a resignation, but only an earned
retirement for an old wheel horse
who has made a sincere effort to
contribute something to the cause
of servatio o in his beloved
! Ohio"
Replying to Emmett, Director
Eagon said: II want you to know
that l sincerely appreciate the 10y
al support you have given me and
the splendid progress made in the
Information and Education Section
under your leadership. l feel that
considerable progre has been
made and the ground work laid for
even greater progress in the fut-
ure."

Hearing Of q suit to scrap
Fairfax County's new residential
coming plan opens tomorrow in
Circuit Court.
The suit involves the Freehill
coming amendment which was
adopted to confine urban devel-
opment to the eastern one-third
Of the county.
The Freehill amendment,
adopted last August, sets up
minimum lot sizes Of two acres
In the western two-thirds of the
county.
The plan has been attacked by
81 landowners. including G. WAL
lace Carper. former chairman Of
the Board Of County Supervisors,
who owns a large farm In the
restricted area.
At least 80 witnesses are ex-
pected to testify in the case
which oficials say viii determine
whether the county can control
development in the rapidly grow
ing county. Testimony is ex-
pected to take more than a week.
Judge Waddell to Preside
Judge Lyttleton Waddell OF
Charlottesville will hear the case
which gets underway at 10 am.
The three Fairfax Circuit judges
disqualified themselves. Defend.
ing the county win be State
Senator ArmStead L. Boothe Of
Alexandria. and his partner, VIII
liam Koontz. Attorneys Lytton
Gibson and william Hansbarger
represent the landowners con-
testing the amendent.
The suit brings to court a
hve-year-old battle over future
development of the county. Many
officials felt that lack Of action
on a master plan had much to
do with the defeat in 1855 Of
five members Of the old Board
OF Supervisors headed by Mr..
Carper.
The Freehill amendent repre-
sented q compromise between
plans recommended by Francis
Dodd McHugh and by the county
planning commission.
Mr.. Hough, who headed q
$4,000 study, recommended lot
restrictions Of three to five acres

For many years, under the DEM
ocratic leadership's control Of
Virgins. there has been q steady
and alarming growth Of q CEN
tralized power In Richmond and
a general lessening of power in
the counties"
He called the placement act
coupled with the fund cutoff,
"the most fragrant example OF
centralized power that has been
witnessed In Virginia and Amer
lea since the adoption of the
Tenth Amendment to our Con-
stitution-the purpose Of which
was to preserve to the respective
states all rights not delegated
to the Federal Government"
Senator Dalton reiterated his
own support Of a locally-admin-
|istered pupil placement plan to
handle the Supreme Courts de-
segregation decision. He re-
called that he co-sponsored leg
islation to that effect at two
sessions of the General Assembly
without success.
The massive resistance" plan
finally adopted under the States
Democratic leadership "can end
only in massive integration OF
the closing Of schools" Senator
Dalton said.
Dirksen Also Speaks
Another speaker at the rally
attended by about 100 persons
was Senator Dirksen, Republican
Of Illinois, who said it was nc
great challenge to be q Republic
can in most States but 1t is a
challenge to be Republican in
Virginia where you have had ar
opposite political trend for a
long. long time"
Senator Dirksen told the
Loudoun County residents he
recently became q part-time
neighbor Of theirs. He has
bought ground in the Broad Run
district on the Potomac River,
and has installed a trailer on the
property where he spends his
week ends.

Hearing Set Tomorrow
On Fairfax Zoning Plan

in the western two-thirds Of tn,
county. The planning commits.
sion recommended one-acrt
limitation in most of the western
area. with one-half acre where
sewer and water is available.
The amendment. sponsored BY
Supervisor Joseph Freehill, wa.
approved by q vote Of five Il
one. Supervisor Stuart DeBel
voted against it. Board Chair.
man James Keith had previously
indicated his opposition although
he was not present when thu
vote was taken.
Supervisors Freehill, Keith
DeBell and Anne wilkins have
been subpoenaed to testify Al
the hearing.
Called Insidious Plan
The suit charges that thu
adoption Of the amendment
was nothing more than a de-
signed, preconceived. insidious
plan to prevent any practica
use or development of the pc.
titioner's land"
The suit claims the restriction
"deprives the petitioners of nor.
NAL. proper, practical and besi
economic use Of their land and
forces development to Other
areas Of the county and to Prince
William and Loudoun Counties
where there are less restrictions.
The landholders declared two
acres is too small for g. farm
and too big for a subdivision lot
They said there is q great de.
mand for one-half acre lots. The
maximum restriction on lot size,
before the Freehill amendment
was one-half acre.
Eight landowners who also
live in the restricted area have
entered the suit on the county's
side. They said that invalida-
ton Of the amendment would
return the county to q system
without plan, would encourage
spotty and uncontrolled devel-
opment and would increase the
economic burden on property
owners" They said it would
cause increased demands for
schools. roads. water and sewer
facilities. and police and fire
protection.

RICHMOND, Va. June IS,
Ted Dalton's personal primary
by mail and public Endorsement
Of the same kind Of school pro-
gram he advocates by a top
Democrat put some additional
colors on the Virginia political
picture this week.
Republicans generally took
heart from the announcement
by Mr.. Dalton that he would
get in the race for Governor
and give the Democrats 1.-THE
fight of their lives" II enough
voters would write him at Rad
ford to get into the fight.
And many Of them took add
tional satisfaction from the
statement Of University Of Viz
ginia President Colgate w.
Darden, jr., a former Demo-
cratic Governor, that the State
should abandon the Democratic
administrations massive re-
sistance" policy on any possible
school indignation.
Counter 10 Program
Mr.. Darden, in going counter
TO the program insisted on by
Senator Byrd and Gov. Stanley
Endorsed the original Gray pro-
gram that is the nucleus Of Mr.
Dalton's suggested school legis-
lation. This is a program Of To-
cally administered pupil assign
ment designed to meet require
ments Of Federal courts under
the Supreme Courts desegrega-
ton order.
This part Of the program was
strapped by the administration
at q special Assembly session last
September in favor OF a three
member State pupil placement
board and a provision that would
deny State school funds TO any
mtegrated school.
The plan advocated BY Mr.
Darden contemplates the pos
sibility Of a small amount Of in
tegration to meet the FedraI
court requirements. The Stanley
plan now in effect is designed Il
prohibit the entry of a single
colored child into a white school

Comments on Segregation
The State Senator from Rad.
ford pitched his local govern
ment comments to virginia's new
segregation laws. The Demo.
Icratic-controlled Assembly ha.
adopted laws putting all student
assignment powers in the hands
Of a three-member placement
board. and providing for the
withholding Of funds from any
local school system where int.
grafton occurs.
"All government is a ladder Of
rights, and a necessary rung /:
the FIRST and most important
rung at the local level" said
Senator Dalton.
THE Democratic leadership Of
Virginia took that one away al
the last session Of the Genera
Assembly when they deprived
the localities Of a voice in sayins
what school their children
should attend"
Senator Dalton said This act
was not only a blow to the prin.

rights, but it was further an in.
