that our public high school be

that recent State legislation au-
thorizes you to close schools
which are ordered to integrate;
but, we have been under the
impression that schools SC
closed were to be reopened by
you at once as State public
schools.
IF this action cannot be
taken, we hope that control Of
our school will be returned tt
the authority of our school
board. -.
I'VE request that you take
action so that we may attent

Big TestAhead
In Little Rock
Privote School Plan
Faces RoudbIocks

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Sept.
% (AP).-Southern segrega-
tionists will face a critical test
Of desperation efforts to pre-
serve segregated public schools
If and when a plan to operate
four high schools on a private
basis materializes here.
Preparation for such action
took a giant step last week with
formation of the Little Rock
Private Schools Corp, which
hopes to open private institu-
tons in public buildings with
State funds if ArkanSans vote
las they are expected to do)
against indignation in a special
election Saturday.
The election is provided for
in a bill empowering Gov. Orval
Faubus to close schools as an
nti-integration measure and
another bill authorizes trans
fer of tax funds to private
schools in district where public
schools are closed.
Most segregationists view
conversion of public schools to
private institutions as a final
defense line against integration.
Law Invoked by Faubus
Gov. Faubus invoked the
school closing law September
IL to shut down Central, Hall,
Tech and Horace Mann High
Schools.
The Governor points out that
the Supreme Court, which ruled
against public school segrega-
ton, never has ruled against
segregation in private schools.
On that fact, he pins his
hopes of preventing forcible
indignation.
He further has stated that
the conversion is legal under
both Federal and State law, al
though a group of 81 Little
Rock attorneys took an opposite
view in advertisements carried
to-day in both Little Rock news
papers.
Some Little Rock residents
are skeptical of financing pro-
posals. Gov. Faubus' plan is tc
withhold from State funds ar
amount equal to the sum Of
State and local district funds
allocated to operation of We
closed schools.
Would Have State Funds
! School Supt. Virgil Blossom
reports that the four high
schools are a $1,183, 360-a-yeal
operation, roughly equivalent tt
the entire amount of State aic
received by the district.
So, in effect, the district
would lose all State funds
which account for about 20 PEI
cent if its annual IS millior
budget. Junior high and ele
mentary schools would have
to be operated entirely with
district funds.
And there is no assurance
that the private schools cal
: be operated on a segregated
basis. The Justice Department
responsible for carrying ou
! Supreme Court desegregatiol
, orders, refused to outline it
planning, but department
spokesman indicated a plan |
ready to seek an indignation
order against the converted
, schools
Another roadblock to privat
schools is the possibility tina

Mr.. Adams broadcast will

do" replied: Exactly"
The question of whether Mr..
Adams will quit or ride out
the storm OF criticism arising
from his acceptance of gifts
from Bernard Goldfine was
left unanswered after a sur
prise conference with Presi-
dent Eisenhower here this
morning.
Mr.. Hagerty refused to in
dicate what Mr.. Adams will
say. And he declined to answer
when asked whether Mr.. Adams
submitted his resignation to
the President.
Hagerty Reads Statement
Mr.. Hagerty read this state
ment to newsmen:
Il have asked the radio and
television networks to furnish
time this evening for Sherman
Adams to make a statement.
I'm connection with the con-
troversy surrounding him
others have expressed them
selves through the media Of
national circulation, and Mr..
Adams now wishes to have a
similar opportunity.
This request is being made
with the knowledge and ap.
proval of the President"
Mr.. Hagerty cut short a news
conference to fly back to Wash
ington with Mr.. Adams.
He said the Adams statement
would be televised and broad
cast from Washington.
The time of Mr.. Adams APP
pearance on the air was being
worked out and was to be an
nounced after he returned to
the White House. the press Sec
Rotary said.
Showdown Decision
There seemed little doubt
that this mornings hour-long
meeting of the President and
his right-hand man involved a
showdown decision on whether
Mr.. Adams should quit or ride
out the storm of criticism of his
role in the Goldfine case.
Mr.. Adams is facing power
full pressure to quit from many
Republican leaders who con-
tend that his part in the Gold
fine case makes him liability

His unannounced arrival by

vacation Office this morning
stirred speculation that he was
bringing his resignation-bow-
ing to his critics.
But the fact that he wants
to answer his critics on the
air could very we'll mean that.

Mr.. Adams has decided to ride

Our Stamp Program
Our class is in charge of the u.
S. Savings Stamp Program for this
year. At the beginning of the year
Stamp Day Patrolman was Sc
lected for each room. Each of us
gave a talk TO the room we had
chosen about how. our program
would operate this year and the
purpose of saving. Later we had an
assembly program where we told
the boys and girls about stamp day.
We had the state director, Mr..
Jameson, to show film and to
explain why we should save.
Each Tuesday is Stamp Day. We
have sold 1853 stamps, total of
$1,863.9O for the first seven weeks.
Our highest percentage has been
63.4% and our lowest percentage
1890. Most of the classes have
done very well, but we are especial
ly proud of Mr. Simpsons sixth
grade at the Legion Home because
he has had 1000 buying for four
weeks.
We hope all boys and girls will
remember to bring their money Ioi
stamps each Tuesday Learning TO
save is very important. BY saving
we will have money to buy the
things we will need later in life.

The next day we started collect
ing our leaves from nearby woods
and our neighborhood. We pressed
them in thick book and mounted
them on pieces of colored or plain
paper.
AS the booklets were finished
they were put on display for others
to see.' The booklets are neat and
attractive. Each student used his
own idea for mounting his collec-
