RICHMOND. Jan. 2s.--Judge
Walter T. McCarthy's ruling
that virginia's segregated seat
ing law Is unconstitutional can
not be appealed. Attorney Gen.
eral Albertus S. Harrison ruled
today.
This leaves Arlington with
two conflicting opinions on seq
regated seating--one by Judge
Mccarthy that the seating law
is invalid and another rendered
q year ago by Judge Emory
,Hosmer that 1t Is.
The practical effect Is that
persons arrested under the
seating law can hope for
acuuittal on constitutional
grounds II their cases go to
Judge Mccarthy, whereas trial
In another court would not au-
tomatically result in acquittal.
Gov. Almond previously had
said also that Judge McCar-
thy's opinion Is apt TO have q
persuasive" effect on any cases
arising elsewhere In the State.
The Arlington case arose with
the arrest Of q colored woman.
Mrs. Marjorie Y. Taylor. at a

RICHMOND, Va, Jan. 20 tA9.
The Senate voted 1917 to-
day for a study Of the advisable
ity Of legalizing horse. racing
with parimutuel betting.
The action came on the heels
OF an Endorsement Of the study
by Gov. Almond.
The Governor told a press
conference he subscribed TO a
study by the Virginia Advisory
Legislative Council. i,
He said II may be. however
that Virginia's constitution may
be interpreted TO prohibit any
legislation that ultimately might
be offered to legalize such
betting.
Refers 10 Lottery Section
He was referring to q section
OF the constitution that prohib-
its the General Assembly from
adopting any laws to establish
q lottery.
The Governor declared ne
thought the whole picture OF
pari-mutuel betting should be
studied with regard to revenue
and public acceptance of 1t In
Virginia.
In response to another ques-
ton. the Governor said he sub
scribed to a VALC proposal for
reorganizing the milk commits
sion. Under that plan. the three
member commission would be
continued. with the present dis
tributor member being replaced
by an economist.
Milk Board Revamping
The House received yester-
day a bill from Delegates Tom
Frost and Charles Green for
such q reorganization Of the
State Milk Commission. The
measure carried the names Of
So co-patrons. The commission
also includes q public repre-
sentative and q producer mem
Der.
Another bill affecting the
Mix Commission was sub
mitted by Delegate Kathryn
Stone Of Arlington. II proposes
10 increase the commission
membership 70 1--WE. Of whom
three would be consumer or
public members. The bill would
require one OF the three con-
sumner members TO be a house
wife who is the mother OF three
children under 10 years OF age.

NEW AIDE

Republican National
Committee Chairma n
Meade Alcorn expects to
annouce a replacement for
Miss Bertha Adkins as
G.. o. P. vice chairman by
the end of this week. he
told The Star last night.
The chairman, who is at
his home in Connecticut
attending to personal bust
ness, said he has "the
matter pretty well along in
my own thinking" But he
wants to confer with Pres
ident Eisenhower and some
members of the national
committee before announc-
ing a final decision. he
added.
Although no regulation
requires it. the vice chair
manship almost always
goes to a woman who al
ready is a member of the
national committee. Mr..
Alcorn said that almost
certainly will be the case"
this time.

Of the National Federation OF

that she was "amazed-and
0 little disappointed in the
attitude" Of Miss Rose Leib-
brand who disclosed yester-
day that her resignation as
executive director had been
requested by the declarations
Executive Committee.
Miss Daniels told The Star
that Miss Leibbrand had
been given the privilege of
resigning but declined to
discuss the reasons for the
move other than to say MOTH
ing personal was involved.
Miss Leibbrand had stated
that the request for
her resignation apparently
stemmed from resentment
over the fact that Il was &C

She said today that she
had been assured by Miss
Palmer and the next two Of
ficers on the Executive Com

presidency that she could
have the job for six years.
Miss Daniels, however, said
she was sure Miss Leibbrand
could not produce any ev-

would have the right or the
authority to employ anyone
