Threat To Close
Va. Schools Hos
Divided Sfufe
BY VICTOR CALVERTON


Richmond, Va. CAMP 80 The
threat of closed schools in some
Virginia localities has stirred some
white people to express opposition
to such an extreme move to block
mixing of the races in classes.
There is evidence that a number
Of white people would like to see
the desegregation issue handled by
each community rather than allow
dictation from Gov. ]. Lindsay AL
mond
This appears to be the beginning
Of open opposition to the states
massive resistance" program.
Delegate William r. Hill of
Charlottesville. one of Virginia's
communities under court order to
desegregate in September, last
week called upon the general as
sembly to adopt a statewide pro-
HADAAA VI AbNaA OPtAol
The Charlottesville legislator
said Virginia's laws against deseg-
regation have run the limit of
serving the purposes for which
they were designed" He urged "a
new approach which will be both
legally sound and preserve our
system of free public education"
He said this could be done by an
act giving each locality the option
of pursuing "a course of massive
resistance or more flexable
program"
Hills proposal excited the gov.
ernor, He Immediately denounced
the legislator and accused him of
favoring some school indignation.
But Hill like some others said the
problem in Charlottesville lis quite
different from what 1t is in certain
other localities"
In Norfolk, where the schools
are under federal court order to
begin degeneration in September,
parents concerned about what may
happen to their children have be-
gun to speak up against the plan
to close a school rather permit a
single Negro child to attend with
white children.
A writer to Norfolk's morning
paper last week viewed the south
ern states as being divided into
three classes:
Those that took the initiative to
follow the school indignation law
"or the ones who make things
happen"
Those that are relatively slow
in following the Indignation order"
or states that watch things hap
pen" and follow the pattern set by
others that started indignation.
Those that are trying to out
wit the law, or the states who
don't know what's happening
The writer, Edward Barres said
categericany school indignation
within the public schools Of Vir-
ginia and the rest Of the South
will undoubtedly become a COM
plete reality"
Another reader in Norfolk want
ed to know;
why must the South always be
considered as a separate and dis
tinct section7 After all. this is
1855. almost 100 years since the
Civil War and those states below
the Mason and Dixon line should
be starting 10 feel and act like just
another part OF a great nation
why should the federal govern
ment be expected 10 pamper south
ern states as II they were old
ladies' .
How can we hope for united ma
tons when we don't have united
states ,"
