the less densely populated
States. For the cost Of school
buildings is rising everywhere
and many States really have
not been able to expand their
school building facilities. due
to insufficient receipts from
State taxes.
This question could be-
come q big issue politically.
For If the Federal Govern
ment now is going to take
over State functions-and the
Little Rock controversy shows
the way the wind is blowing
then there will be less and
less interest in recent state
ments by the administration
that local governmental units
should remain independent
Of Federal help so far as
practicable. The admins
tration has claimed that it is
trying to encourage q trend
toward local responsibility.
Vice President Nixon the
other day expressed that SEN
timent to q conference Of
mayors. and q few weeks ago
President Eisenhower said
the same thing to the con-
ference Of Governors.
These statements sound
hollow now as the Federal
Government undertakes to
question the motives Of a
Governor when he tries to
preserve order. In fact, the
Department Of Justice Is as

bilities, including the man
agement and control Of the
public schools, then why
shouldn't the taxpayers Of
the different States be re-
lieved Of the expense, too?
This is q question involving
some $l1 billion spent an
nually by the States and cities
on public schools. The oldest
principle in the American
creed is that taxation with
out representation is tyran-
ny" If the people of the
States hereafter are not to
have the final say as to how
their money shall be spent for
schools and the Federal Gov
eminent Is to be supreme In
regulating attendance at the
schools. then the citizens of
the States may come TO feel
that the responsibility for
raising the money needed
should be a 100 per cent Fed
eral function.
Some States already have
laws which provide that If
Negroes are ordered into
white schools. then appro-
priations shall cease for the
schools they attend and the
schools from which they are
transferred. No court order
can make a State legislature
spend money 1t doesn't want
to spend. So the Federal Gov
eminent will have to take
over.
All this might add sll bill
lion to the Federal budget,
but the smaller States would
benefit. because they would
not be required to contribute
proportionately. All Federal
taxes nowadays are based on
the capacity Of the citizen to
pay the specified rates. ire
spective Of his geographical
location.
If the cost Of education In
America is to be saddled
primarily on the middle and
higher income groups. it will

dare let down its guard.

ance has been properly ad-
ministered by the American
and Korean authorities. It
has helped prevent an eco

public of Korea is still a
long way from being as self

SAR Seeking
Home Along
Embassy Row

The Sons of the American
Revolution and a group of WASH
ington residents today were
awaiting a decision on whether
the patriotic society may set up
housekeeping on Massachusetts
avenues plush Embassy Row."
Officers Of the SAR yesterday
asked the District Board of
zoning Adjustment to allow the
society to buy a house at 2412
Massachusetts, avenue NV. for
its national headquarters.
The patriotic group, which
wants to install its executive
secretary in the house, recently
sold its former headquarters on
Sixteenth street NV. to the Ma
tional Education Association.
The proposed relocation would
put the headquarters in the
midst of score of foreign en-
bassies and diplomatic missions.
But a group of homeowners
who also share the neighbour
hood yesterday fervently opposed
the move.
They told the coming body,
which must act in the matter
because the sale Of the house
to the SAR would be at variance
with the neighborhood non-com-
mercial status. that allowing the
SAR to come in would be an en-
tering wedge for a change in the
character Of the neighborhood.
The owner Of the poperty
wanted by the SAR is retired
Maj. Gen. Patrick Hurley, who
lives in New Mexico. The house
is now occupied by an Argentine
diplomat. whose rent is paid by
the Argentine government.

Storm Signals
ToBeChonqed

A new, simplified system Of
coastal weather warning signals
was announced today by the
United States Weather Bureau,
to take effect January /.
For many years. the condi-
lions dangerous to navigation
have been forecast by the bureau,
storm warning signals have been
displayed along the coasts, the
Great Lakes, Hawaiian Islands
and Puerto Rico.
Under the new system, four
separate flag signals will be used
during the day instead of the
seven now employed. During the
night. four lantern signals will
be used for small craft warnings.
The major differences between
the old and the new visual
warning display systems are:

Secretary Of Labor Mitchell.
Increasing his previous estimate
by more than so per cent, said
today that $50. 900 persons would
get pay raises If Congress enacts
the administrations bill to ex-
tend coverage Of the 81 an hour
minimum wage Law.
When the Secretary testified
before the Senate Labor Com
mittee some time ago, he said
the bill to cover rs million
more workers would mean actual
pay increases for 100000.
At q news conference today.
Mr.. Mitchell said that he has In
formed the committee by letter
Of the new estimate.
The Secretary also told re-
porters that the Administrations
proposals for curbing wrong
doing by corrupt union leaders
would not be ready for presen-
tation to this session Of Con-
gress.
Praises Ethics Code
He characterized as "lauda-
tory" the code Of ethics adopted
by the AFL-CIO and said I'm
not sure they haven't" when
asked whether he thought the
National Association Of Manu-
facturers and the Chamber of
Commerce should also adopt
such o code.
Mr.. Mitchell said he believed
he would accept any invitation
he might receive to address a
local Of the Transfers Union.
Il would talk to them on the
responsibility Of trade union
leaders, the abrogation Of trust
by certain Of these leaders, labor
union ethics and the necessity
for the rank-and-file to exercise
their democratic rights within
their organizations"
