ture. Until this dispute has been legally de-
termined Virginia has taken firm stand
against the edict OF the Supreme Court In
50 doing Virginia stands astrde the grow
ing usurpation of states sovereignty by the
Court. In our judgment this principle is Of
the greatest Importance.
lnplementing its stand the Virginia Leg
lslature passed at a special session pro-
gram to save the public school system.
The provisions briefly: % require assign
ment Of all pupils BY an Assignment Board
at the state level; (2) withholding of state
funds to any school which proposes to in
tegrate the races in a public school: 81
provided that the governor may reopen a
public school, thus closed, on segregated
basis. through the use Of his good office
and mature judgment. 1t is mot intended
that the Virginia public school system be
abolished, on the contrary, the program
will maintain an efficient school system
The second school Of thought is predict
ed upon acquhsence to the will Of the nine
Supreme Court justices, and to allow each
school division to set up its own method of
migrating the races in the schools. In
other words to accept the principle Of dom
ination of the states by the u S. Supreme
Court, to give up forever the sovereignty Of
the states and to operate Virginia schools
on a segregated basis as long as possible by
the use of circumventon, discrimination,
and insncerity
All Of the candidates belve in racial seq
regation Of Virginia public schools All Of
the candidates believe in maintaining an ef-
ficient system Of public schools The diff
ference in methods is in the programs Of
massive resistance and Of passive ac-
quiesence"
SO far as we are concerned we believe in
massive resistance for the purpose Of not
only saving our system Of schools but to an
even greater purpose of saving our system
Of government.
The campaign needs to be pitched on the
higher level Of maintenance Of constitu-
tional government. not on salvation or de-
struction Of Virginia Schools system. We
are agreed that the public education must
be maintained

Reserve Service
Brings New Draft
Exempt Status

A recent manpower order BY
President Eisenhower has been
translated into policy for local
boards Of the Selective Service
system under which men serving
satisfactorily as members Of units
Of the Ready Reserve will be
classified ais not available for in
duction.
A news release for use Of local
boards was sent out by State
Headquarters for Selective Service
on June 2T- explaining Executive
Order No l0714.
Under former policy only such
youths as went into the Ready
Reserve before reaching the age
Of 10 and u years Of age were
given deferred status.
Under the new regulation, the
age limitation is lifted and the
deferred status applies to all those
participating with Ready Re
serve units.
The mot available" status does
not apply after the notice of in
duction has been received, how
ever. 1t was pointed out that men
cannot wait until such notice is
mailed then run to the draA
board requesting deferred status

nits deferment Of persons In case

strike Of several months duration
by turnpike maintenance men be-
fore their servides would be missed
Practically the only necessary en-
ployees Of a turnpike authority are
those who collect the tolls. And ]

Turnpikes are therefore less liable
than most investments to suffer
from labor troubles.
The Automobile Industry
One Of today's fastest growing in
dustries is the automobile industry
and our turnpikes must prosper
along with it. Not only are new
cars put out by the millions each
year. but boys in very old Ford
must pay the same toll as those
riding in new Cadillacs? Everyone
wants to save time, and also 1t is
very much safer driving on a six
lane modern turnpike.
These turnpikes can never be
built for less than their present
cost. Therefore. the government in
its new road building program,
should be glad to take over any of
these turnpikes and then pay the
bondholders in full. am also told
