Integration and Sales Taxes

THE pity is that racial indignation OF Nlr
ginias public schools should be men
toned in the same breath with the proposed
80 sales tax now before the General AS
sembly. We have been able to see no con-
nection, unless it is that the huge sums
exacted in the sales tax program will make
tax funds for integrated public schools SO
attractive that weak resistance will be sold
out for expediency That is the only con-
nection that we can find.
Just a year ago, the sovereign rights of
Virginia were traded for the expediency OF
public schools Every school district in Vir-
ginia became a school unit, to be attack by
the NAACP through the federal courts.
Virginia as state relinquished its duty to
protect the school boards throughout the
Commonwealth, and made each vulnerable
to attack.
What has happened is that Norfolk, and
Arlington, under this pressure accepted
token indignation. Warren County refused
to integrate and the white students remain
ed in the independent school privately sup
gina law and regulations, operated the
public school the balance of the session for
% Negro students. When the session opened
in September at Front Royal, public schools
were integrated with 20 or more Negro
pupils in the white high school, an all
Negro high school and privately operated
all-white academy. Charlottesville and
Alexandria began integrated schools in
September, and Floyd county integrated
in February. Token" Indignation began in
two school districts in February 1859, in
three school districts in September 1859,
and one school district in February 1860,
all such action was NAACP pressured
through decisions of Federal courts The
number of Negroes in ntegrated schools
has increased from 10 to o.
Token Indignation is not the answer to
the problem. There are those naive enough
to believe that such will satisfy the NAACP
and the courts. We can not agree

entS Of the victims of criminal negligence
the facts almost sustain the allegation.
Hundreds Of children are scalded to
death because they could fall into steaming
water. Other hundreds are burned to DEATH
and some of them die because they have
been permitted to play with matches or left
unguarded around dangerous fuels and
fires. Additional hundreds die every year
because they put something into their
mouths that I'M ured them, such as poison
Gus substances and objects that are swal-
lowed. Moreover shotguns and other fire
arms are carelessly left where children can
reach them and play soldier" with fatal
results.
1t is impossible to call attention to every
instance of accidental death that threatens
the thousands Of American children who
will die before reaching maturity 1t is like
wise impossible to establish rules for par
ents to follow. Certainly, it behooves par

There is abundant evidence, one, the
NAACP Target Of 1868, which emissions
total indignation in every field Of public
endeavor as we'll as social and religious
organizations and activities.
The South does not face token" integral
tion-it faces total indignation a little
at a time.
Virginia has left every school district in
this state vulnerable to the indignation
attack. Obviously, the present NAACP
STACEY is to attack the districts with the
weakest determination for resistance.
Obviously, the individual school districts
need more latitude than is now given under
the so-called "freedom- Of choice" program
About all the freedom Offered the white
people in the present situation is integrated
public schools. 1t is hard choice with but
little freedom.

people Of Virginia do rot approve of the mixing

tainly do not We determined to educate

We agree with the statements of the
Governor, and hope he can find it in his
judgment to support such legislation which
may be introduced to strengthen the free
dom of choice. At least to give the local
school districts a modicum of protection,
and the people a hope of freedom of choice
SO f4r as we see now relationship between
the sales tax and the needed school legisla-
ton are as far apart as the poles.

are talking about q million

President Lundy Wright Of
the Chamber of Commerce in
Southwest Virginia's Dicken-

each State for the 1961-63 BIZ
enium Is the goal. Present
State expenditures are a fourth
that amount.
The park-in rugged noun
tains on the Kentucky Virginia
border - has been developed
only during the past 10 years.
Before, the area could be
reached only by horseback or.
in good weather, by truck over
q dirt road.
Its startling feature is a
deep gorge cut by the Big
Sandy River, and sometimes
called the Grand Canyon Of
the East" Virginians had
known 1t as the Breaks Of
the Cumberland (mountains) )"
while to Kentuckians it was
"The Breaks Of the Sandy" As
o compromise, the area became
the Breaks Interstate Park.
An attractive lodge with q
dining room and two new pic
mic shelters were among the
first major developments, along
with parking lots and trails
leading to several overlooks OF
the gorge. A museum and as
sistant superintendent's resi-
dence are under construction,
while the superintendents res
idence already is occupied.
Each year an increase in the
traffic count coming into the
park is reported. But Mr..
