HEADLINE PERSONALITY
Bryon a Friendly Man,
But Stern on Bench
By PAUL HOPE

Behind the Arlington deseg-
regation DEGREES stands a quiet,
slightly built man who once de-
scribed himself as merely q cog
in Americas judicial system.
But associates Of Alexandria
Federal Court Judge Albert v.
Bryan know him as one Of the
most ardent students Of law in
the country and as q jurist who
has decided many significant
cases in his II years on the
bench.
Judge Bryan is a friendly,
unassuming man of the bench.
In court he can be a stern dis
ciplinarian.
Persons coming before him
find a man dedicated to up
holding the laws Of the United
States. Attorneys find him
helpful. But he will tolerate no
foolishness or deviation from
the issues at hand.
Cuts Through Evidence
Judge Bryan has a reputa-
ton for being able to cut
through the mass of evidence
and arguments to get at the
meat Of a case. He often ques-
tons witnesses in detail to get
facts the lawyers have not
brought out.
Il find that If I study the
facts in a case. and get the
facts straight in my mind. then
the law pretty well follows"
said Judge Bryan.
In ordering deseeregation in
Arlington, Judge Bryan was
following the 1884 edict Of the
United States Supreme Court
which said that students can
not be separated because Of
race or color.
In a previous case in 1851,
Judge Bryan was one Of a
three-judge panel that ruled
Prince Edward County, Va,
could maintain separate schools
for Negroes and whites pro-
vided the schools were equal.
The tribunal was following the
previous doctrine established
by the Supreme Court. The
case was one Of those involved
IN the Supreme Court decision
that overturned the separate
but-eQual doctrines.
Court UphOIds Order
Judge Bryan originally or
dered desegregation Of Arling-
ton elementary schools by jan
uary, 1856, and high schools
this fall. Desegregation was de-
layed pending an appeal to tina
Supreme Court. The high court
upheld his order.
In Saturdays order to admit
seven Negroes to four Airing
ton white schools. Judge Bryan
served notice that the time was
at hand for school officials to
quit their procrastination.
Judge Bryan's legal career
began after his graduation
from the University of Virginia.
He became city attorney of
Alexandria in 1925 and helped
represent the city in annexa-
ton cases against Arlington
and Fairfax. Alexandria won
stable pieces Of territory.
In 1923 he was appointed
Commemorative attorney for
Alexandria and was reelected
every four years to that post
until he was appointed to the
Federal bench in l947.
The soft-spoken, 58-year-old
Judge is a native Of Alexandria.
His father was an employe of
Riggs National Bank Of WASH
ington.
Judge Brayn's Virginian an
cestry goes back to shortly be-
fore the Civil War when his
grandfather. s. F. Beach, a ma
tive Of New England, settled
In Alexandria. His paternal

direct flight from New York,
Miami or New Orleans to st.

mendations made in the Air

Walter A. Gordon reported
yesterday.
The study's recommended
tons would provide an Eek

5000 foot runways based on
minimum load factor for a di-
rect flight from New York to
St. Thomas in DEG type air
craft. The airport would have
a taxi-way the full length of
the runway to accommodate
the large number of flights
expected to use the airport
daily and would provide, ae-
cording to the plans sub
mitted, for aprons on which to
park four airplanes with ex-
pansion room for five more

ditional parking facilities.
The engineers examined
every possible site on the is
land to determine the most
economical area to use for an
airport. An extensive survey,
coupled with previous study
of typographical maps and an
aerial tour Of t h e island
showed that "there is only one
flat area on the island large
enough and sufficiently free
from Instructions to accom-

is at Harry S. Truman Air
