Foirfox Supervisor Hits
State Law on Schools

Virginia's legislation to pre-
serve segregated schools was
termed "ill-advised and illogical"
yesterday by Mrs. Anne wilkins,
member Of the Fairfax Board of
County Supervisors.
Speaking at the dedication of
the new Lillian Carey Elemen-
tary School for Negroes at Bal
ley's Cross Roads. she said the
county was caught in a conflict
between Federal law and State
law, which permits the Governor
to close any schools where inte-
grafton occurs and to withhold
State funds from integrated
school systems.

She said the difficult situa-

edged that nevertheless. it is

she hoped I'VE can weather the

Mrs. Wilkins represents Mason

He said he was going down a

Snodgras said he then

ern Virginia's economic, socia'
and governmental characters
tics. His commentary will be
used as an introduction to a re-
port to be published on the COM
missions two-year study of the
regions fiscal problems.
Mr.. Ecker-Racz said that the
State. through its fiscal policies
and supervision of most Of the
basic functions Of local govern
ment. gives its communities
little scope to face their prob
lens in their own way"
Rural Pattern Seen
He added:
Government organization re-
tains characteristics developed
decades ago with a view to State
control of rural communities.
Some local officials are still in
clined to look to Richmond for
their cues and there appears to
hang over sections of these COM
munities an almost paralyzing
dread of displeasing the State"
He reiterated the claim that
the States tax fund distribution
formulas are discriminatory and
said there is an apparent leg
islative disregard for the prob
lens Of the urban areas" He
noted that the four Northern
Virginia Jurisdictions account
for about one-sixth of the
States tax collections but re-
ceive only about one-sixteenth
OF the revenues returned to local
governments.
Future Noted
Noting that property taxes
are the major source of revenue
for the local communities. Mr..
Ecker-Racz said the impress |
sion which emerges from the
fiscal survey of Northern Vir.

He said that Northern Vir.
ginia has inadequate industry
but Its potential for specialized
light industry and industrial re-
search is substantial"

Richfield Finds Good Oil Flow In Alaska We'll

LOS ANGELES, -Richfeld Oil Corp. reported Monday drill CTS on a well in Alaska encoun- tered oil sand between 11,14O and 11,170 feet
 The company said that from the 30-foot interval tested the well flowed at an estimated rate exceeding 200 barrels daily of 31 gravity oil.
 The we'll is Richfield's Swan son River unit No. l, the unit be- ing on the Kenai Peninsula about 40 miles southwest of Anchorage. The unit totals 71,600 acres of federal land of which Richfield owns 8912 percent and is the unit operator.
 Drilling is going ahead on the No. well.
 Alaska has long been known as petroliferous region" said Charles s. Jone, Richfield presi- dent. Many oil shows have been encountered in wells drilled in other areas of Alaska, altho no oil of consequence has been pro- duced to date.
 Tt is not possible from the present status of the Swanson River unit No. l well to appraise the significance of the test"
 Wall street sources today at tributed a substantial rise in Rich field stock to news of the oil dis covery near Anchorage.
 On Monday Richfield common jumped $5.5O a share to $7375 on turnover of 4,20O shares on the New York Stock Exchange
 Richfield stock is closely held with two major oil firms-Cities Service Co. and Sinclair Oil Co. holding the lions share.

LONDON R-It was a distinct ly embarrassing moment when two separate gangs of robbers dis covered they had chosen the same time of the same night to break into the same store and haul away the same safe.
 One gang of three tiptoed into the London suburban grocery store and surprised another trio in the act of removing the safe from it's moorings.
 There was an awkward silence after both gangs. established they were in the same line of business Finally they decided to join fore es and together lugged the half ton safe into a truck to divide the spells later
 Somebody meantime had tipped off Scotland Yard, and detectives rounded up the coalition before the 100 pounds ($280 in the safe could be shared out.
 Police told the story in cour' yesterday when five men were found guilty of breaking into the store. A sixth man was convicted of being an accessory after thu fact. All will be sentenced later.
