Byrd Attacks Judiciary
On Segregation Ruling

NORFOLK, Va, May 10 R.-
Senator Byrd, Democrat Of Vir-
ginia. says he hopes massive re-
sistance throughout the South"
will persuade the Supreme Court
to "see the error Of its ways" and
to revise its decision outlawing
school segregation.
This would be in keeping
with the freedoms Of our great
constitutional democracy" Vir.
ginia's senior senator told the
annual banquet meeting Of the
Hampton Roads Maritime Asso-
citation here last night.
Senator Byrd singled out for
special criticism Federal Judge
Walter Hoffman, who has ruled
virginia's new pupil placement
law unconstitutional. He said
Judge Hoffman's comments dur
ing the Norfolk and Newport
News desegregation hearings
were IAN exhibition which does
a disservice to the entire judi.
cial system"
State Shuns Violence

one Of the Southern States
which has chosen q course of
massive resistance" reserves to
itself the right to defy the Su-
preme Court. $50 long as we dc
so without violence or attempt
to overthrow the Government. /"
And he indicated 1t is Of ire
mendous Importance that Vir-
ginia hold the line against de-
segregation since the State has
become "the first battle-ground
in the fight against mixing the
races in public schools"
Senator Byrd said 1.-THE first
onslaught" Of the Federal Gov
eminent and the National Asso-
citation for the Advancement Of
Colored People has fallen on
Virginia because they think our
communities are divided"
He said he believes "integra-
ton cannot be enforced in a
majority Of Virginia communi-
ties. I do not believe that
1t is favored in any Of them. -
In one Of his most vigorous
speeches yet on the segregation
issue, Senator Byrd sharply at
tackled Judge Hoffman. He
charged that the Judge in state
ments from the bench at q pre-
liminary hearing Of the Norfolk
and Newport News desegrega-
ton suits last November. dis
played arrogance and prejudice"

Delegate James M. Thomson
OF Alexandria, a staunch sup
porter of Gov. Stanley's no.
Indignation program, said the
Governors remarks had been
Imisinterpreted and declared no
children would lose out on edu-
cation.
He acknowledged one Of the
bills adopted by the Virginia
General Assembly last fall per-
mits the Governor to close
schools. or classrooms, whenever
indignation occurs, but said the
students could be reassigned to
other schools Immediately.
He said this arrangement
could go on indefinitely, with
schools or claSsrooms closing
each time indignation occurs, and
children being transferred to
other schools. The closed schools
could be reopened later on q
segregated basis, he said.
A locality can ask the Cover
nor to step out and leave q
school alone, but if the school
is operated on an integrated
basis the locality will lose its
State school funds. Mr.. Thorn
son said the fund-withholding
law is automatic, and does not
depend on any action by the

State Holds Placement
Powers, Arlington Retorts

The Arlington school admins

Gov. Stanley is aiming his
segregation-or-els gun in the
wrong direction.
The full legal responsibility fol
handling the classroom racial
problem rests squarely on the
State. not on local officials, 9
spokesman said.
The Governor this week warned
Arlington and Charlottesville to
use every power Of persuasion to
keep schools segregated.
If persuasion fails, the Gov
ernor said, I'VE will have to use
other legislation enacted by the
General Assembly" The other
legislation includes laws that
would close individual schools

withhold State funds from local.

integrated classrooms this fall
Authority Provided
The measures which Gov.
Stanley said would follow If Ar
lington or Charlottesville fails to
maintain racially segregated
schools were authorized. by the
General Assembly at It's Sep
tember special session. A key
item in the Stanley-sponsored
package Of bills gave pupil as
signment authority to a three
member State board.
At a press conference on
Wednesday. Gov. Stanley advised
the two communities to use
every power Of persuasion they
have against indignation"
Asked to comment. an Ar

spokesman, Assistant Supt.
Charles j. Walsh, pointed out
that the State Pupil Placement
Board, not Arlington. now has
the job Of assigning the students.

Mr.. Walsh said:
1.-THE Arlington schools are a
part Of the State school system.
The assigning Of children to par
ticular schools is now completely
in the hands of the Virginia
Pupil Placement Board and we
are given no responsibility with
