Private Schools Upset
In County byU.S. Court

to the colored residents of
Prince Edward County, for the
obvious reason there was no
private colored school in exist
ence.
by closing the public schools,
the board of supervisors have
effectively deprived the citizens
of Prince Edward County with
a freedom of choice between
public and private education.
County tax funds have been ap-
propriated Tin the guise of tu-
ition grants and tax credits to
aid segregated schooling in
Prince Edward County.
Circumventing a Right
That, to say the least, is
circumventing a constitu-
tionally protected right.
I'VE do not hold these
county ordinances are facially
unlawful. We only hold they
become unlawful when used to
accomplish an unlawful end
(the prepetuation of segregated
schooling in Prince Edward
County,"
On the plan for school de-
segregation, Judge Lewis noted
that no such plans have been
made is admitted. The defend
ants justify their failure to
comply with the plain Ian
guage of this order by stating
they acted on advice of counsel
and that it appeared useless
to make such plans so long as
the public schools of the county
were closed.
This court cannot accept
these reasons as Justification
for failing to comply with this
portion of the order :"
Negro Move Denied
Judge Lewis denied a bid by
the Negroes for an injunction
prohibiting the Prince Edward
School Board from leasing or
transferring any school prop
erty. The Judge said no evil
dence had been produced to
show the School Board had
these intentions.
Public schools in Prince Ed
ward, Judge Lewis noted, have
been closed for two years land
apparently will so remain until
this or some State court
directs that they be opened and
maintained"
In testimony before the
court. officials of the private
school foundation said tuitions
accounted for $332,144 of the
schools income for 1960-61.
About $14.8OO additional came
from donations and other
sources such as fees and book
sales, testimony disclosed.
Attorneys representing both
plaintiffs and defendants de-
clined to comment on the opin-
ion. 1t was understood, however,
there would be meeting of
State and county representa-
tives soon to discuss the posi-
bility of seeking a stay or an
appeal of the decision.

ects are all factors in the sc-
celeration of traffic movements.
He said the heavy traffic
load already has given rise to
summer time jams on the Bay
Bridge.
Mr.. Funk said the SRC must
attain a certain proportion of
nue-to-expenSeS ratio on
its toll facilities before it can
build another bridge. Therefore,
he added, construction of an
other bay crossing is not likely
to be possible in much less than
five years.

Violent Demonstrations Disrupt U. N. Security Council Meeting

rupted Stevenson's speech with shouts of "Vive Lumumba." ]" Fighting broke out when the guards tried to expel the demon strators.
 Stevenson spoke out firmly against a Soviet resolution call ing for the withdrawal of U. N. forces from the Congo within one month. The Security Council, he said, must rally it's strength be- hind Secretary-General Dag Ham, marskjold to prevent any weak ening of the U. N. role.
 Docs this council favor aban- doning security for insecurity and anarchy?" he asked. "Does the Soviet government really want Africans to kill Africans? The United States does not and it de- voutly hopes the Soviet Union does not"
 The disorder was the worst in the 16-year-old history of the United Nations.
 Guards tangled with the demon- strators and three or four fights erupted in the gallery.
 The fighting continued outside the Security Council galleries in a third-floor corridor.
 Don't shoot me-" one demon strator shouted as he was hustled to an elevator.

Would Provide $4-O,OOO For Alaska Participation In Century 21 Exposition

JUNEAU, R-An act to appro- priate $450,000 for Alaska's par ticipation in the Century 21 Ex- position in Seattle next year was introduced in the Senate today.
 The sponsors were Sens. George McNabb, Al Owen and Eben Hop son.
 ''It is generally agreed" Me Nabb said, "that the tourist in- dUstry is one of our great untap- ped resources. To this date, with the exception of authorizing the appointment of a tourist advisory board of 25 members, we have done nothing.
 Though the governor has re- peatedly mentioned participation in Century 21 with apparent ap- proval, he made no provision for it in his budget request nor has he introduced a separate bill call ing for the appropriation of the necessary funds.
 'If it is the desire of the exec utive that someone else carry this ball, his wish has been fulfilled" /"
 In his state of the state speech on Jan. 24, Egan told the legisla- ture he was not including Century 21 in his budget.
 Participation in Century 21 will cost money and the decision must be yours" Egan said.
 Personally, I favor AL aska's participation, yet obviously that is not one of our real neces- sities."

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. R- U. s. Ambassador Adlai Steven son today denounced the Soviet Unions latest Congo move as declaration of war against the United Nations"
 The United States, he said, does not intend to stand by idly while others cause trouble in the Congo.
 Stevenson addressed a tense meeting of the U. N. Security Council which was disrupted by the worst public demonstration in the history of the world organiza- ton. It took IS minutes to clear the public galleries and restore order.
 Soviet delegate Valerian A. Zorin replied he failed to find in Stevenson's speech any indica- ton that the Kennedy Admins tration had changed the U. S. attitude on the Congo. President Kennedy, Zorin said, seemed to be following the policies which had brought about dire conse- quences in the strife-torn African country.
 The demonstrators, about 10 Negro supporters of slain Congo lese leader Patrice Lumumba, forced their way into the galleries through a back door and inter

BRUSSELS, Belgium tR - Fifty-four Americans, including the entire U. s. figure skating team perished today in the fam ing crash of a Sabena Belgian Airlines jet. In all, the crash of the American-built Boeing TOT brought death to 73 persons.
 Disaster struck at 1925 a. m. as the $5-million plane, it's en- zines suddenly sounding odd, sought a landing in bright sun shine after a flight from New York.
 The huge plane slammed to earth beside a woods three miles north of Brussels International Airport and went up in flames fed by fuel oil as the tanks ex- ploded one by one.
 All 61 passengers and the crew of II died. A Belgian farmer till ing his cabbage patch was struck and killed.
 5th Sports Group Wiped Out
 The team is the fifth major sports group wiped out by plane crashes in a dozen years, includ- ing soccer teams of Italy, Britain and Denmark. Sixteen members of the California Poly football team were killed in the crackup of a chartered plane last Oct. 29 at Toledo, Ohio.
 The Boeing crashed in a small pond and started burning almost at once Fire engines previously alerted because of its cratic be- havior screamed toward h c scene, but arrived only in time to check the spread of fire.
 The nightmare evolved from Sabena's Flight 548 from New York. Residents of the seacoast village of Berg figured something might be wrong when the air liner sped over them for it's ap- proach to the airport. The engine roar changed oddly and the flight pattern looked cratic.
 The plane circled the field a time or two. It lowered the under

Chinese Celebrate New Year 4659

NEW YORK R - "Kung-ho shin-nien.'
 Or a Happy New Year to you. Have cup of Dragons Eye" tea.
 But is it the year of the OK or the year of the COW?
 The Chinese can't agree. Any way, it's a great day today in Chinatown - the start of the year 1859 by the Chinese Lunar calendar.
 OK or COW - the celebration started last night with dancing lions and costumed paraders jam ming the narrow streets to the accompaniment of firecrackers. Dragons and unicorns will join the festivities today.
 Chinese tradition has 12 ani- mals taking turns ruling the lives of the believing - the rat, tiger, rabbit, snake, horse, goat, monkey, cock, dog, pig and cow or OK.
 One celebrating group says 1t is "going all out for the cow" But a spokesman for the Chinese Con solidated Benevolent Assn. de- clares it is the year of the OK.
 It doesn't make much difference, says Chinese Consul Gen K. w. Yu. He says the Chinese have the same character for both sexes. The year of the horse might also be the year of the mare, and so on. The general practice, he added, is to use the male of the species to designate the new year.
 So = happy OK to you.
