Three Candidates Join
In School Bond Plea

He said, Our children and our
community are worth investing
in. We can pass the bond issue
if We will work for it,"
However, Independent Julius
Brenner charged that the
county board in seeking funds
through a bond referendum, is
guilty Of a deliberate trick"
because it could readily pay
for it out of it's budget"
He declared, This political
fraud by the Arlington County
Board and School Board is
highly unhonorable."
The Drew-Kemper School has
so many pupils that many of
them now are forced to attend
classes in admittedly made
quate quarters at an annex
several blocks away.
A dispute has arisen because
some community leaders, in
Guiding Negro spokesmen, want
to accommodate the overflow
by building an entirely new
school away from the present
one.
But the school board, con-
tending that no separate site
is available, presently intends
to add % rooms to the existing
school, provided it gets the
money.
Mr.. Lowry has said the board
should review its decision. Mr..
Ludwig indorses the boards
plan, arguing that it resulted
from "a thorough, exhaustive
and competent study"
Mr.. Wetmore thus far has
kept out of the site dispute.
Mr.. Brenner believes the prob
lem can be solved by building
a new school at the county
property yard, if the county
board will just use some of
the cash he says it has.

Three opposing candidates
for the Arlington County Board
Joined in an appeal last night
for passage of a bond issue to
improve the all-Negro Drew
Kemper School.
A fourth denounced the pro-
posed $3.50, 900 bond issue as q
political fraud"
In a referendum last year,
voters Unexpectedly refused to
authorize any money for con-
struction at the school. In
creaSing controversy now about
Just how to end overcrowding
there is generating fear that
they will do the same thing
this fall.
Those enjoying new schools
have a special obligation to
those in older areas who need
them. We must support this
item of the bond issue. The
proper education of 1000 chill
dren is at stake" Democrat
William Wetmore told the
County Council of PTAs.
Contrary to anything you
may have read, stand solidly
in favor of every proposed bond
referendum as approved by the
county board and, of most
particular concern, feel that
everyone should Solidly get be-
hind the Drew-Kemper bond
referendum in a unified effort
to insure its passage, said Re-
publican Kenneth Ludwig.
Roye Lowry, candidate of the
bipartisan coalition, Arling-
tonians for a Better County,
urged the thousands of PTA
members in Arlington to unite
at the polls to correct what he
termed "the most crucial de-
ficiency in our school plant. "

Three formidable opponents
I-carelessness, casualness and

1861 United Givers Fund drive,
the Postmaster General told
a rally of UGF Government
Unit workers in Constitution
Hall today.

unteers to rebut a ''ho-hum

viction. he told the workers.
The UGF drive, with the
highest goal in its six-year his
tory, $7.S million, will be
launched officially october 2.
Commerce Secretary Hodges is
chairman of the Government
Unit and Donald S. Bittinger
is general campaign chairman.
Mr.. Day urged the unit not
only to reach, but to exceed its
goal of $3.4 million, 43.5 per
Icent of the total.
Seen as Example
President Kennedy in his
message to the heads of depart
ments and agencies dated July
I26, 1861, stated that our Ma
tion's Capital can and should
be an example to the Nation in
building a healthy and strong
community through the Ameri-
can tradition of voluntary CIV
ing" Mr.. Day noted.
While unsupported agencies
and services are needed to meet
such basic needs as food, cloth
ing and shelter, volunteer
agencies like those supported
by the United Givers Fund pro-
vide the means for carrying on
humanitarian services neces-
sary to give balance to COM
munity life" Mr.. Day declared.
Both are needed, he said.
Everybody benefits from the
agencies sharing in the United
Givers Fund, Mr.. Day said.
when family life is pre-
served, and neglected young
sters are cared for. when a
retarded child is trained, when
a youngsters health is pro-
tected, when children are kept
out of trouble and a mentally
disturbed youth or young
mother are cared for--every-
body benefits" the Postmaster
General declared.
Have We Thought
You may never need these
services, your family may never
neee them, but it's good to
know that they are available,
whenever and if the need
arises" he added.

hour public hearing, the first

Higher Salaries Urged
Board member Berge Thom-

students could make better use
of their time in school than
driving cars and gain more in
the long run from classroom
training.
County schools are continuing
classroom driver instruction,
but this year reduced behind

TouristHome
'Hurussment'
Probe Urged

The District of Columbia
Chamber of Commerce has
asked the Commissioners to in
VeStigate a tourist home opera
tors complaint that he has
been subject to "harasSment"
by members of the police NOR
ais squad.
At a license hearing last
month. two detectives objected
to renewal of a tourist home
permit for an establishment at
1451 Belmont street NV. The
detectives, Don Lawton and
Eugene Zoglio, said two arrests
3f women had taken place there
since July, 1860.
Berkeley G. Burrell, president
Of the D. c. Chamber of Com
merce. said his group "is con-
cerned that this incident, when
viewed in the light of several
others which have recently
taken place, seems to indicate
a pattern Of questionable po-
lice tactics which are directed
principally toward Negro es-
adjustments with integrated
clientele"
In a letter to the Commits
sioners, Mr.. Burrell added:
Because of the substantial
rights involved and the poten-
tial damage which may be done
to the community, we believe
this matter merits your serious
attention" Ee asked that there
be IAN investigation by approp-
riate authorities"
The tourist home operator,
Cornelius c. Pitts, said at the
recent hearing that police were
objecting to his hotel operation
because it was interacial. He
said he has been in business for
IL years.
The District Commissioners
are expected to act on the COM
plant. received yesterday, al
their next meeting.
Licensing officials are still
considering what action to take
on the tourist home license.
Deputy Chief Howard V
Covell said in answer to the
complaint that the police de-
partment 'is not trying to har-
ass anyone. We are trying tc
enforce the law and we're doing
so without any regard to race

Plan to Cut Back Powers
Of Urban Counties Hit

pei these counties to become
cities"
If approved, Mr.. HaSsen said,
the code change would make
the urban counties rural farm
counties again" Arlington has
for many years made use of
powers granted by the code
provision.

By JOHN LAWSON
Star staff Writer

A proposal by the Virginia
Code Commission which would
cut back the powers Of urban
counties has been sharply
criticized by members Of the
Fairfax Board of County su-
pervisors.
/ Supervisors said yesterday
they were opposed to the
change because it would abolish
the concept of urban counties
and force highly populous
counties to become cities.
They also feared it might
curtail some of their powers
to furnish services in dense
areas and thus weaken their
Idefenses in annexation suits.
One supervisor, William H.
Moss, said the proposal would
force urban counties to seek
city status and thereby
strengthen the hand of cities
in the General Assembly.
The proposal was announced
Tuesday at the League of Vir-
ginia Counties in Roanoke by
Hugh R. Thompson, general
counsel for the code commits
sion.
The commission, he said,
will recommend to the Gen.
eral Assembly that it eliminate
a section of the State code
which permits urbanized coun-
ties to employ powers enjoyed
by cities and towns.
Fairfax is among several
urban counties which have for
several years been utilizing
these powers.
Mrs. wilkins Protests
Mrs. Anne wilkins, chairman
of the Board of Supervisors,
told the league the. proposal
would, in effect, destroy many
years of effort by Fairfax to get
recognition for the urban coun-
ty as a political entity.
1t would force those counties,
she said, to become cities in
order to continue providing
their citizens with needed serv-
ices.
After her criticism of the
code change, the league voted
to support retention of the code
section and agreed to seek "full
recognition of the urban county
/ as a unit of local government,
by constitutional amendment
! if necessary"
Mr.. Moss. vice chairman of
the Fairfax board, told the
league that unless protection
were given to the States urban
counties, they would have to
pull out of the league.
The league later passed a
number of resolutions urging
; the General Assembly to ex-
pand powers Of urban counties
as we'll as rural counties and
to permit referendums in areas
affected by annexation suits.
Criticism by Arlington
The proposed change in the
code also drew criticism from
