of the people Of Prince Edward and its en-
virons, and varying numbers from Hope

The need was for $500 books and the good
people have contributed over 5000 and still
they come.
The classrooms in the private schools
will be comfortable. light, airy and ade-
quate. The picture of the blacksmith shop
shown on the editorial page of the News,
we are sure, was mistakenly referred to as
classroom. 1t is the industrial shop - and
where more appropriately would metal
and wood working class be taught than in
a former blacksmith shop?
If we are any judge of the determination
of the people Of Prince Edward there will
always be private schools in Prince Edward
as opposed to integrated public schools.
Cd Because the private schools will be
operated equally as efficiently as the pub
lie schools
~ Because the people Of Prince Edward
will not submit to integrated public schools.
For how long will the courts and the fed
eral government permit the county to deny
educational opportunities to the Negro
children?
The county Of Prince Edward does not
deny educational opportunities to the Negro
children, now or at any time in the past.
The Perrow plan provides for all children.
A grant of at least $231OO is available to
every child in Prince Edward county, for
use in private nonsectarian schools, or in
public schools outside the county.
The colored people can provide education
for their children by two or three easy
steps.
0) Form a corporation or an association

grated
~ Establish school accredited by the
Virginia Department Of Education. which
can be done;
(3) Apply for scholarship grants offered
by the State of Virginia through the Per.
row plan Of freedom of choice"
ca Acquire buildings for school use
These may be either buildings privately
owned or built or surplus schools owned
by the County. They even may be rented in
the discretion of the school board.
The County Of Prince Edward has not
denied the Negro children any rights they
possess, any more than it has denied thu
white children of their rights If any rights
have been denied by anyone, we suggest
that the NAACP-pressured federal court:
have denied both the white and Negro chill

IF there is a disagreement between the
Richmond News Leader and the Lynch
burg News in regard to the findings OF two
professors of Emory University prepared
for the Southern Regional Council in re-
: gard to operations of public schools and
private schools. it is certainly no concern
of ours We suspect the respective editors
can take care of themselves in such verbal
battle. if it comes to that
We would have hoped that the editor of
the Lynchburg News would have left Prince
Edward County out Of the argument. but
since this county has been brought in a
horrible example and the system Of private
schools here are already condemned to fail
ure. even before they open, believe it
necessary to point TO several facts and
truths
If the Perrow-Almond plan, passed by
the legislature under considerable duress,
is really freedom of choice" plan as it is
advertised. the people Of Prince Edward
have taken it at face value and exercised
their freedom Of choice They made known
their position in 1865. barely seven hours
after the Warren Court made known the
rules in its implementing order Of May 81
1865. Funds for the operation Of public
schools We're reduced then to month-to-
month basis with the distinct understand
ing that local support for public schools
would cease when indignation was ordered
This position was reaffirmed in 1856 and
action was taken in 1859. when the federal
ward saschools in September and refused
stay of the order.
The position of the present Virginia state
laws of the Perrow plan, disagreement
among attorneys, and the attorney-general
OF their true meaning. pressures by federal
courts in the Warren County Norfolk Arl-
ington cases. and the unprecedented favor
itism in the Charlottesville case form con
fused picture
In view of this situation the white people
having established Prince Edward School
Foundation began preparations for educat-
ing their children in a system of private
schools
TO this end they have pledged 1868 ,871-

to operate the schools for three months
Cash payments Of pledges are being re-
ceived daily as promised by the pledgors
That the schools will be financed this year
is a certain conclusion Contributions from
neghbors and friends are being received
every day. incidentally, any contributions
to the Foundation are deductible for income
tax purposes
To house the schools. the people of the
county have m a d e determined efforts.
Principally. the churches in the various
communities will provide satisfactory hous-
ing. In two cases additional rooms have
been erected by church members to assure
comfortable Accommodations.
Transportation will be furnished by the
