Proposals to Assembly

EEOpUSdAS W hSocAuDAy
To accomplish this, the COM
mission made these proposals
to the special session OF the
General Assembly reconvening
next Monday:
/. Making State and local
funds for scholarships avail
able to children who prefer 20
attend private, non-sectarIan
schools. All students In private
schools would be eligible and
not just those who pull out
of public schools to avoid in
tegration.
2. Re-enacting the compul-
sorry school attendance law on
q local-option basis.
8. Returning to local school
boards the responsibility for
assigning pupils to specific
schools with a new appeals
procedure spelled out.
4. Allowing voters to force
the sale of surplus school prep
erty in localities that may
abandon public education.
5. Changing local budget pl o.
cedures whereby appropriations
could be made on a month-to-
month basis.
Also proposed is a bill to
permit any locality to close
its public schools whenever
Federal military forces are
present.
The commissions report was
approved by a vote of 3l-to-S
Five of those signing the ma
jority report did so with reser-
vations.
The minority statement said
the majority report makes it
legally possible for a locality
to proceed with as much in
tegration as that particular
locolit" de sires.

Simply lol containment; we are
not willing to accept a little

elements"
There has been no definite
word on the fate of the Dalai
Lama since fighting broke out
between Tibetans and Chinese
Communist occupation forces
on March 20.
But unofficial reports said
the 23-year-old spiritual and
political leader of his noun

forces in Southern Tibet and
perhaps trying to reach asylum
in India.
The Peiping broadcast said
he and his party arrived in
India on March 81" and that

eminent police authorities had
been sent to meet him.
The place Of his arrival was
not stated.
The report Of the Dalai
Lama's flight to India, If true,
was seen as bringing embar-
raSSment to Indian Prime Min
lister Nehru.
Mr.. Nehru has been attempt

India has maintained a neutral

-. The truth is that neither
the General Assembly nor the
Governor has the power to
override or nullify the final de-
crees of the Federal courts in
the school cases."
The 40-man commission took
the wraps off its elaborate leg
islative plans which in large
measure gives localities control
over desegregation and provides
that no child be compelled to
attend an integrated school.
The adoption Of the recon-
mendations would mark official
recognition by the State Of the
Supreme Courts 1854 desegre-
cation decision. 1t also would
recognize the principle Of Local
option in meeting the desegre-
cation decree. with localities
controlling student assignments
and to a large degree school
appropriations.
1t would preserve the State
school system, but allow locali-
ties wide discretion in dealing
with indignation. The localities
could, in effect, get out Of the
school business, leaving only
schools with meager State sup
port in those localities that re-
fuse to put up money for pub
lie schools.

A $297 million Federal aid Ia
airports measure attacked by
the administration as too high
and by many Democrats as toe
low comes up for a. probably
rough trip in the House today
As finally cleared by an un-
enthusiastic Rules Committee
yesterday. the bills proposed
four-year program calls for $97
million more than President
Eisenhower recommended. 1t
is $l68 million less than the
Senate voted February 6. And
1t is $l40 million under the
bill passed by Congress last
summer but vetoed by the
President.
House Republicans contend
even the 1927 million House
bill is excessive in cost" and
runs contrary to the need for
an orderly reduction in Fed
eral participation in airport
programs. They will try to have
the House trim the total to

that. even II the House reduced
1t to 5000 million today, the
eventual total might exceed
$500 million in a House Senate
compromise on the differing
bills in the two branches.
Whether the ultimate total is
$297 million, $500 million or
$465 million, however. the leg
islation faces q threat of q
Presidential veto.
The airport aid proposal Is
one Of three especially contro-
versial issues being pushed by
Democratic congressional lead
ers for early action in the new
Congress despite White House
opposition.
The Senate already has
passed a $465 million aid for
airports bill and q $40 billion,
six-year housing measure. The
Senate tomorrow starts debate
on the third bill. the so-called
distressed areas bill designed
to help cities suffering from
chronic business depression. The
Democratic bill calls for q $3.50
million program as compared
with the administrators rec
ommendation Of SIS million.

fateA 1858 bill said he would
"abide by" the Commerce
Commuters action last month
In cutting 1t to $297 million.
He noted that the bill would
authorize about $63 million for
Federal financial aid for airport
construction during each Of the
four fiscal years beginning next
July /. That would be approx
imately 80 million below the
1860 fiscal year outlay suggest
ed by the administration.
But opponents pointed out
that the administrations pro-
gram provided for a gradual
reduction to SIS million. $45
and $35 million in the
three following fiscal years.

In Washington. Ralph l..

Association. viewing the local
situation. said: N
"The typical Easter business.
including all apparel and ac-
cessory operations for adults
and children, runs substantially
ahead of the corresponding
pre-Easter weeks Of last year.
Easter occurred one week later
last year. April 8. against March
20 this year.
"Women's and misses suits

field. showing very large gains
over the previous year.
Home furnishings show

ture. floor coverings. draperies.
etc. However. there is q weak
ness In the volume Of appliance
sales.
This has been completely
Offset BY the gains In Easter

a very satisfactory store gain"
While optimism is the key
note. you'll find dissenters here
and there. A New York depart
ment store executive complains
that women don't get excited
about fashions when there's
half a foot of snow on the
ground" Wide areas Of the
Northeast and Upper Midwest
were blanketed by a heavy
snowfall late last week. and
store sales took a nosedive.
Other localized deterrents to
an unbounded shopping spree
include: Persistent pockets Of
unemployment in some indus
trial centers, scattered State
and local tax increases. a print
ers' strike that closed daily
newspapers in Columbus, Ohio,
for two weeks this month, and
in cities where winter has
fingered on-the earlier Easter
date March 20 this year as
against April 6 In 1850.
Asset In Some Areas
Not all merchants regard the
earlier Easter as a handicap. In
some Southern and Western
cities, where the weather has
been mild, the advanced date Is
considered an asset. That's the
sentiment of merchants in Los
Angeles. where the mercury
climbed into the high 80s while
snow fell in New York. And it's
echoed by store officials in Mi
ami, San Francisco. Dallas,
Denver and Kansas City.

Irrigation Conference
To Be Held In Billings

Water users from irrigation
projects in Montana, Wyoming
North Dakota, and South Dakota
will meet at a Water Users Irri-
cation Conference in Billings, Jan
22 and %. The conference, the
18th such meeting since the initial
gathering was held in Billings in
January of 1949, will again be
sponsored by Region g., Bureau
of Reclamation.
Invitations to take part in the
conference have been sent to all
non-Bureau irrigation districts,
asspciations, and companies, as
well as all Bureau of Reclamation
constructed irrigation projects,
within the Region 6 area. Region
6 includes Montana, east of the
Continental Divide, Northern

FOOD OUTLOOK IN 1858

Welcome news to all home
makers precariously balancing
budgets is word from the Nationa
Agricultural Outlook Conferenc.
in Washington, d. c. There will b.
increased employment in 1859
wages will remain high. and retail
food rices r expected to aver
age less than the record high.
How much will we eat in 1885,
More than 152 pounds of meat
will be available per person in
1859. OF this, 80 pounds will be
beef and Sc pounds pork. This is
1919 more pork than in 1858 be-
cause there will be a larger supply
and it will cost less. Milk and
Milk products will remain about
the same. There will be 348 eggs
per person available and As pounds
of fats and oils. Breads, cereals,
fruits, and vegetables, including
potatoes, will be available in the
same amounts as last year.
How much will all this cost?
The estimated cost for a family of
two adults and two grade children
will be between $1,000 and $500
a week. A moderate income fam
lily of four with two adults and
two high school age children will
be between $500 and S41.00 per
week. A family of two adults of
young and active age will pay $21-
90 to $3.50 a week. If the family
of two is a retired couple, their
needs will be less and the cost will
range between $500 and $21.5O a
week.
Since super market food stores
feature cleaning and laundry sup
plies, household equipment and
hardware items as we'll as drugs,
tobacco and drygoods, it is well
to note exactly which items on the

which are not. 1t is revealing to
