Air Force Spends
$4,000 to Alter
Home of White

The Fort Myer residences Of
Gen. Thomas D. White, Air
Force chief Of staff, is under
going q renovation that will
cost taxpayers $4,000.
The work, to be completed
in a week or ten days, is de-
signed to bring the home up to
par with those Of the chiefs
of other services, an Air Force
spokesman said.
The spokesman said estimates
showed it was cheaper to reno
vate and extend the present
building than to build from
scratch the kind of house the
Air Force chief should have.
The chiefs of staff usually do
considerable "line-of duty" en-
tertaining.
The home, once occupied by
Army Maj. Dwight D. Eisen-
hover, was built in 1909 for
Army captains. The spokesman
admitted.
The $4,000 work will enclose
a porch around the house and
modernize the homes interior.
Gen. White has been living in
a private home in Arlington
during alterations.
Renovation of the two-and-
a-half-story brick home was ap.
proved by the Fine Arts COM
mission and former Secretary
Of Defense Thomas s. Gates,
the Air Force said.

that Virginia is restored to the

'It is q tribute to the elastic
and resilient cohesiveness of
Virginia Democrats to possess
the facility to emerge from the

Of conflict, unfurl the banner

Looking over an audience of
more than 1900 that included
Senators Byrd and Robertson,
most Of the Democratic con-
gresSional delegation and the
two announced party guberna-

recalled Virginia has gone for

committeeman post as successor
to the late Lester s. Parsons
Of Norfolk.
Mr.. Straughan, chosen on
the third ballot from a starting
field Of five, pledged that he
would work toward translating
to the State level the success
the G. o. P. has enjoyed in
Virginia in the last three pres
idential elections.
To this end, State Chairman
I. Lee Potter named a commit
tee headed by Linwood Holton
Of Roanoke. party vice chair
man, to examine possible can
didates for Governor, Lieuten-
ant Governor and Attorney
General to throw against the
Democrats this year.
The party leaders expressed
pride in carrying Virginia again
for the national Republican
ticket this year but they still
showed political nostalgia for
the Eisenhower days.
AS a demonstration the COM
mittee approved a resolution
preferred by B. A. Davis Of
Rocky Mount calling on Presi-
dent Kennedy and his official
family ito stop hanging crepe
and down grading the country
F.. and to try to emulate to
some extent the administration
Of President Eisenhower"
All this took place while can
didateS for national commit
man were jockeying for posi-
ton in a race in which Mr..
Straughan, the front-runner
apparent. was being seriously
challenged by John Dalton of
Radford, whose father, Ted
Dalton, resigned as national
committeeman to become a
Federal judge.
Other candidates were Rich
ard c. Poage Of Richmond,
former State Senator Fred C.
Parks Of Abingdon and Horace
E. Henderson Of Williamsburg,
candidate for Lieutenant Gov
ernor in 1857. Shields Parsons
Of Norfolk, son Of the late COM
mitteeman, withdrew his name
after it was offered, and gave
his support to Mr.. Dalton.
With Is votes required to
nominate, Mr.. Straughan re-
ceived IS to Mr.. Dalton'S 10
on the third and final ballot
with Mr.. Parks receiving 4. A
decisive factor was Mr.. Poage's
withdrawal in favor Of Mr..
Straughan after the second
ballot. Mr.. Henderson withdrew
in Mr.. Dalton's favor.
After the results were in the
vote was made unanimous on
Mr.. Dalton'S motion.

Yesterday they were released
after serving 10 days Of q 80
day Jail sentence. Since their
conviction on February 8, two
other demonstrations have
been conducted at the store
and IL personS-including two
ministers-have been arrested.
Today, the drug store Is
quiet. and except for an occa-
sional cat call or joustling Of
the picketS, there have been no
incidents.
For awhile, the demonStra-
tors sent several pickets at q
time to the store. Then coun-
ter-pickets showed up, and po-
lice obtained agreements from
both sides to limit their
picketers to two. The Segrega-
ZIONIST pickets seldom appear.
Pressure" Charged
Officials Of Patterson's claim
they are being preSsured to give
in to the demonstrators.
THE demonstrations are the
last thing in the world we
wanted" said Charles g. Pat
terson, jr., president. but it's
gotten to be a matter Of prin-
ciple."
We're trying to run our busi-
ness in the way we concluded
it was best to do" he said. IF
we can't do 1t peacefully, we
have to get help from the law"
We're not trying to be bull
headed. The way things are
now. it would be almost impos-
sible to work out a solution,
even IL we wanted to-"
The Rev. Virgil A. Wood,
leader Of the protest movement
and himself one Of those ar
rested, argues that Patterson's
policy Is morally wrong even
IL legally justified.
A mass meeting Is scheduled
for Sunday at which a resolu-
ton Is to be offered calling
on the City Council to "act
within the framework of your
moral conscience" and abolish
segregation in all public facii-
ties.
Unless there is progress, Mr..
Wood said, the group plans to
file suits in Federal court to
force desegregation.
I'VE viii not let up until
the walls Of segregation come
down." he said.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1961-02-26


against segregation which
threatens to spread to other
areas Of this city Of 10000.
Already 10 persons have been
arrested In Patterson's during
three sit-in demonstrations and
IL Of them have gone to jail.
The others are free on bond
awaiting trial.
Leaders Of the movement
now plan to extend their fight
to segregation in city parks,
swimming pools, courtrooms,
the Jail, the library, the ceme-
terry and the schools.
Paradox Is Seen
The city, stunned by the
sudden prominence the demon
strations have brought. is one
Of paradox in racial matters.
The public hospital has an
integrated cafeteria and an in
tegrated children's ward. The
city employs Negro policemen
and o Negro sits on the school
board.
Buses and the bus terminal
have long been integrated. In
the past six months five down..
town lunch counters have
dropped racial barriers.
Yet In other areas-the
parks, courtrooms. the library
strict segregation is the rule,
and "colored'' and white"
signs are scattered throughout
the public buildings.
Leaders Concerned
Civic and business leaders
have expressed increasing con-
Germ as the demonstrations and
picketing have continued. THE
city is stirred up" said one
businessman. Both white and
Negro are upset about this
thing"
I'm terribly sorry that some
thing like this had to happen,
said John j. Wraneck, man
ager Of Miller q Rhoads de-
partment store. whoever is
right. the effect Of q controv-
ersy like this is very unfortu-
nate for the community"
One downtown merchant
said many businessmen felt the
Patterson management was
doing the right thing under
the circumstances" since store
officials have maintained they
would not integrate under
pressure.
The protest movement began
last fall with picketing and
boycotting Of downtown stores
which operated segregated
facilities. A bi-racial commits
sion was set up shortly after
wards and guided desegrega-
ton Of four downtown lunch
counters.
Sit-In Started
Patterson's was not among
them, and In December four
white and two Negro college
students conducted Q sit-in
demonstration there. They
were arrested and pleaded
guilty earlier this month to
trespassing charges.
