pected to be brought up early on
the MEETINGS agenda. A certain
development was that the Execu-
tive Council. governing body Of
the 15-million-member fedora
ton, would pledge full co-opera-
ton with any congressional COM
mittee investigating labor rack
eteering.
1t was expected, too. that some
machinery would be set up for
disciplining unions that refuse
to go along with this. policy of
cooperation.
Chairman A. j. Hayes Of the

expulsion of any union found
guilty of racketeering. Mr..

Gray Appointed
To School Board
Gov. Stanley Drops
Veteran President

RICHMOND, Va, Jan. % (P1.
Gov. Stanley today dropped State
Senator Blake T. Newton from
the State Board of Education on
which he had served for 20 years
and replaced him with State
Senator Garland Gray, chairman
of the group which prepared the
Gray Commission report to pre-
serve school segregation.
Senator Newton, whose present
four-year term expires tomor-
row. has been president of the
Iseven-member board since 1916.
The board elects its own presid-
ing officer. Senator Newton is a
former county school superin-
tendent and was named to the
State board in 1887
In announcing the replacement
of the 67-year-old Westmoreland
County Senator by Senator Gray
from Southside, Sussex, Gov.
Stanley said he wanted to give
ISouthside and Eastern Virginia
more representation on the
board.
Newton on Voyage
Senator Newton. who sailed
Friday night on a Caribbean
cruise. may not have known he
was going to be replaced. The
Governors Office said Gov. STAN
ley had not talked with Senator
Newton by phone but had noti-
fed him in a letter mailed Fri
day.
The Westmoreland Senator
did not see eye to eye with Gov.
Stanley on a key provision of
the Governors school legislative
program and voted against the
provision to withhold State funds
from the school as last resort
to prevent any indignation. How
ever. Senator Newton supported
other parts Of the program that
were embodied in the Gray Com
MISSIONS recommendations.
District Demands Denied
Senator Gray's views on segre-
cation were much stronger than
those recommended by the COM
mission. The recommendations
subsequently were repudiated by
the chairman and majority of
the commission.
A newsman asked a member
of the Governors staff if there
had been many requests from
the Southern and Eastern Sec
tons of the State for more rep

BY J. A. O'LEARY

senator Aiken, republican OF
Vermont. proposed today that
the Fulbright motion for a re-
view of foreign affairs under
Secretary of State Dulles be ex-
tended to cover at least seven
years.
That would take in three years
lof the Truman administration
and the Korean war. Senator
Aiken said it might even be adj
visable to go back to the creation
Iof the State of Israel, which was
in 1913.
Although Senator Fulbright.
Democrat of Arkansas, has not
confined his criticism of Mr..
Dulles to the Middle East situa-
ton. he wants his inquiry con-
!ducted before the Middle East
resolution is acted on because he
regards it as an expression by
Congress of confidence in the
Scretary's policies.
II think I would be inclined to
favor it (the Fulbright motion)
If it went back at least seven
years and was conducted in a BIZ
partisan manner" Senator Aiken
said. IF it is only going to cover
three or four years it would be so
obviously partisan as to make
its findings valueless."
AS the Foreign Relations and
Armed Services Committees went
into closed session this morning
to question Mr.. Dulles further on
1.-THE Middle East situation, Sena-
tor Fulbright said he probably
would not make his motion for a
thorough review of foreign policy
before the afternoon session.
Presumably, he did not want to
break in on the Dulles testimony.
No Delay Seen
All indications are the two
committees will refuse to hold up
the Middle East resolution, but
may authorize the Fulbright in-
quiry as an independent opera
ton to be carried out later
Earlier, Senator Wiley, Re-
publican of Wisconsin, suggested
some Democrats are joining in
the attack on Secretary Dulles
to further their presidential am
billions.
He did not name them, but
said there seem to be several of
these horsemen riding their
presidential ambitions hard"
List week Democratic Senators
Humphrey Of Minnesota and
Morse of Oregon were among
the first to indorse the Fulbright
suggestion.
House Limits Debate
Meanwhile, the House Rules
Committee voted to bring the
Eisenhower resolution to the
floor tomorrow under a closed
rule limiting debate to one day,
The Rules Committee accepted
the House Foreign Affairs Com
mittee recommendation to waive
points of order.
Rules Committee members de-
bated the wisdom of the gag
rule, which prevents introduction
of amendments from the floor,
for two hours this morning.
Their action means a final
House vote can be expected
either tomorrow or Wednesday.
Little opposition to the intent
Of the Presidents Middle East
resolution developed during the
two-hour debate. but Democratic
members took the opportunity
to criticize Secretary of State
Dulles and the President fol-
waiting so long to take the init
alive in the area.

priority for Federal aid be given
school districts with the greatest
need for new schools and the
least financial ability to build
them.
He also stressed that Federal
aid legislation should emphasize
no interference with State and
community control of education.
Besides the school building aid
program, Mr.. Eisenhower recon-
mended $40 million in matching
grants to States to help finance
planning to strengthen local
school construction programs,
and SIS million in grants over
a three-year period to promote
planning for meeting education
needs beyond the high school.
This brought the cost of his pro-
gram to total of $2,077. ZOO, 900.
Unprecedented Task Seen
The President told Congress
that the task of educating Amer
ica'S youth is unprecedented in
its sheer magnitude" in the years
ahead, with school rooms al
ready overflowing and enroll
ment increasing faster than
school building.
For States. localities and pri-
vate educational institutions to
provide needed schooling from
kindergarten to college," the
President said, will require of
them in the next decade the
greatest expansion of educational
opportunity in our history"
Recognizing the current class
room shortage as an emergency
situation requiring Federal as
sistance, he emphasized that "the
Federal role should be merely
to facilitate-never to control
education.
The key part of the Presidents
program calls for comprehen-
sive Federal school building aid
to accomplish in four years what
he recommended last year as a
five-year program. He remarked
that lone year has already been
lost" The school legislation
failed to get through Congress
last year.
Four Points to Program
This program would provide:
l Federal grants to States for
school construction, at the rate
Of S325 million a year for four
years. a total of $1.3 billion.
2. Authorization of $3.50 mill
lion over the four-year period for
Federal purchase of local school
construction bonds when school
districts cannot market them at
reasonable rates.
3. Advances to help provide re-
serves for bonds issued by State
school financing agencies. No
figure was set for this portion Of
the program.
4. Twenty million dollars in
matching grants to States for
planning to strengthen State and
local school construction pro-
grams.
Mr.. Eisenhower urged that the
program "be enacted on its own
merits. uncomplicated by provi-
sions dealing with the complex
problems of integration."
Five Principles Are Guide
He laid down a set of five basic
principles which he said should
govern the Federal aid program
If it is to serve the cause OF edu-
cation most effectively.
These principles were:
/. The program must be recog.
lnized as a temporary emergency
measure. with Federal aid end
