Stennis Observes
Memory Of Lee
In Stutuory Hall

The memory of Confederate
Gen. Robert E. Lee was observed
yesterday with a speech in the
Capitol's Statuary Hall and q
tour Of homes he knew in hi.
childhood in Alexandria, Va.
The events celebrated the
l5Oth anniversary of the gen.
erals birth. In Virginia, the
tours opened Alexandria par
ticipation in Virginia Heritage
Month, which extends to George
Washington's birthday on Feb
ruary %.
Senator Stennis. Democrat Of
Mississippi, said at the Capitol
the world needs the qualities
which made the Confederate
general such a great man.
Speaking before Lees statue
the Mississippian discussed Lees
character and said his entire
life was marked by a deep and
abiding sense of humility"
Wreathes honoring Gen. Lee
were placed in front of the statue
by several organizations.
officials of Alexandria's Herr
tage Month observance reported
l25 persons. many of them here
for the Inauguration from dis
tant States, made a tour of the
city.
At II am. today there will be
"a special service to honor Gen
Lee at Christ Church, Alex
andria. where he was confirmed
in 1858.

Lee Measure
|BackingRe
BY Robertson
BY the Associated Press

A Virginia Senator has de-
clined to join a Yankee Senator
in asking Congress to restore full
citizenship rights to Robert E
Lee.
Senator Robertson, Democrat
Of Virginia, turned down an in
vitation by Senator Capehart,
Republican of Indiana, to serve
as a co-sponsor of such a bid
The legislation is designed to
commemorate the 150th ami
versary of Lees birth, yester-
day. by posthumously restoring
This full rights Of citizenship"
It's not that the Virginia Sen
ator is any the less an admirer
Of the Confederate leader.
Senator Robertson frequently
refers to both Lee and "Stone-
wall" Jackson as ideal leaders,
he. quotes them frequently in
speeches and holds them UP as
outstanding examples of man.
hood.
But the Capehart proposal. he
said could be misinterpreted as
a move to restore citizenship it.
self to Lea status Robertson
said Lee obtained prior to his
death. Only lacking, Senator
Robertson said. were some citi-
zenship rights and privileges
which Lee technically did not
have.
Robertson did a bit of research
into the matter before turning
down the invitation to back the
measure. He said he learned that
Lees citizenship was restored
but that Lee died before taking
ian oath requisite to the exercise
of certain rights and privileges
If challenged.
Robertson Quoted
Robertson put it this way:
while I applaud every tribute
to the memory of the immortal
Robert E. Lee. including the
pending proposal on the 150th
anniversary of his birth to re-
turn to him the right to vote and
hold Federal Office. posthumous
grant of rights which every citi-
zen. takes for granted will be but
a sounding brass and a tinkling
cymbal unless it evidences a rec
lognition Of two fundamental
facts:
81. The greatness rests not on
rights and privileges that can be
conferred by government but on
the inalienable right of any
human being to be a Christian
capable of sacrificing for a cause,
and:
"2. The cause for which Lee
sacrificed fortune and risked his
life was State rights and to SYM
pathize with Lees loss of the
rights of citizenship while re-
manning indifferent to the cause
for which he made the sacrifice
is to pity the plumage but for

VPI, William and Mary
Interested in Area Sites

The possibility that Virginia
Polytechnic Institute or William
& Mary may establish a branch
college in Northern Virginia was
raised yesterday by Delegate
Harrison Mann Of Arlington.
Either of these two schools, he
said. probably would be de-
lighted to step in" If the Uni
versity Of Virginia decides to
drop plans for such a project.
The legislators comments were
part of a successful plea for the
county to cosponsor a control
board for a regional university
branch.
Following talks by Mr.. Mann
and State Senator John A. K.
Donovan of Fairfax, the County
Board voted unanimously in
favor Of representation on this
body.
Similar Action
This action, similar to that
taken by Alexandria earlier this
month. was made possible by a
State statute enacted last March.
The move to set UP a control
board is an outgrowth of a snag
in plans for establishment in
nearby Virginia of a two-year
branch Of the University Of
Virginia.
An advisory committee made
up of representatives of Arling-
ton, Fairfax, Alexandria and
Falls Church has recommended
the 75-acre Ravensworth tract
near Springfield. However, a
special committee Of the uni
versity's Board of Visitors favors
a 250-acre site near Herndon.
In the wake of the site con-
troversy. the Board of Visitors
recently voted to reconsider in
March the question of locating
a branch in northern Virginia.
