States rights. IF the Federal
Government can arrogate con-
troll Of the public schools and
dictate the mode OF their oper-

to the lengths 1t can go in
usurping the powers and pre-
negatives OF the SOVEREIGN
States" ne declared.
Against u. s. School Aid
On the question of Federal
aid to education. Gov. Stanley
said he was vigorously" OPP
posed to any new program for
Federal aid either for con-
struction Of buildings or for in
structional purposes.
He urged the General Assem-
bly, to express itself likewise by
resolution. "memorializing the
Congress TO reject all such pro-
posals."
To increase teacher salaries
and provide for the employ
ment Of more than 1900 addi-
tional teachers during the next
two years. Gov. Stanley said he
was recommending a boost OF
$3l.5 million for educational
purposes in the 1880 budget.
The present State minimum
salary scale ranges from 81. 400
to $500 after eight years. Un-
der Gov. Stanley's proposal, it
would become $4,000 TO $500
in 1860. with 500 being added
to the scale each year during
the biennium.
Teacher salaries in Northern
Virginia already are well above
the State minimums. with the
localities paying the difference.
The $40 million appropriation
recommended by Gov. Stanley
for the literary loan fund nearly
would cover Sl2 million in ap-
applications already
pending. he declared. None OF
the applications is from areas
near Washington.
The recommendation for de-
emphasis of elective school
subjects came as Gov. Stanley
was discussing the need for
improving education.
He said he hoped the Educa-
ton Committee. which he APP
pointed last month would give
l''~h priority 70 study of cur
ricula.

Next morning. George Metz
read in the papers how close
he had come to diving with
George Kaldes and Kenny
Fisher.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1958-01-08

Mr.. Metz was a friend OF the
late George P. Kaldes. 80,
owner of the bar at tie Ninth
street NV. MI. Kaldes and
his guitar player, Kenneth
Fisher. 80. were slain in a
fuSillade OF shots after the
owner and Mr.. Metz had
thrown Overton and Carpenter
out of the place.

In an interview. Mr.. Metz
told the story Of the fght in
the Jo-Del which precipitated
the massacre:

any additional taxes. he de-
clared. This had been a FORE
gone conclusion for months. in
view Of the mounting State
surplus.
The bulk Of the surplus re-
suited from tax collection far
exceeding estimates. according
TO the budget ONCE. And there
were two State income tax COL
lections last year under the
accelerated tax program. This
had the effect Of doubling the
windfall that normally occurs
as q result Of underestimated
tax collections.
Lands Action ON Schools
Gov. Stanley took up the
school segregation problem
early in his address.
He said he had recommended
anti-integration legislation to
the General Assembly in 1856
I'm the conviction that 1t was
in the best interest OF members
OF both the white and Negro
schools" He continued.
Il heartily commend the
General Assembly for the en-
actment OF this legislation in
keeping with our unwavering
determination TO exercise all
honorable. legal and constitu-
tional means TO protect the
rights Of the Commonwealth
and OF its citizens.
Though subjected TO re-
peated and continued attack by
those who fail to recognize the
sincerity OF our purposes. these
statutes have prevented up 10

TESTING Aptitudes in
The Virgin Isldnds
The Employment Service, in
its. continuous efforts to rem
der greater service to the
people of the Virgin Islands,
has established a permanent
program of aptitude testing
including the GATH, Specific
Aptitude, a n d Proficiency
Tests of the United States En-
ployment Service.
This program is designed to
aid job applicants in obtaining
the types of jobs for which
they are best suited by reason
of their general or specific
%aptitudes. It can be likened to
a tool the use of which is to
bring employer and employee
together for the greatest mu-
tual benefit. 1t helps both the
employer and the employee to
make the initial job adjust
ment with a greater degree of
confidence.
The General Aptitude Test
Battery is designed to furnish
information covering a broad
field of well over four thous-
and different types of jobs.
Employment Service person
mel are trained in the admin
istration, scoring and interpre-
tation of these tests, and can
help the applicant determine
the type of job situation in
which the particular indivi-
dual is most likely to find sue
cessful employment, based on
his aptitude pattern. This in
formation is also helpful in
selecting applicants for re-
ferral to jobs. Of course
nothing can compensate fol
the element of human nature
in any job situation. There
fore, we must remember tha'
the results of these tests can
not stand alone, but must b.
