WHO'S PAYING
FOR SEWERS
and PAVING?

The SUN is in favor of paw.
ing and sewer improvements, but
the question is, is the South Phoe-
nix property owner ready and able
to pay for them?
The city has at least Is sewage
improvement districts in South
Phoenix. Prior to the appeal to
the State Supreme Court of the
annexation controversy, notices Of
improvement districts were sent
out. A property owner, if he re-
ceived a notice many don't re-
ceive them, has the alternative
of voting in favor or against the
improvement district. If a vote
isn't sent back, it is schalked up
as favorable vote. Only mo
votes are counted against improve
ment districts.
Trunk lines for the sewer pro-
ject, dubbed S6O098, will be paid
for out of a $40 million bond issue
passed by the voters in 1857. About
$712 million of this has been sci
for sewers. ,..as ~, $500,
The city is able to serve proper
ty 135 feet from a line, and lines
will be designed to serve all land
parcels in this district.
Property will be assessed on a
square footage basis by multiply
ing lot frontage by a lot depth of
1876 ft. cost per So. foot is 2la
cents. Property owners will i
have to pay about $40 for a tap on
the line if located in alleys or ease
ments between streets, but if lines
have to be built in streets the cost
would go up to about $1OO tap.
1t is estimated that property
owners cost to run pipe up to the
buildings would be from SIPS to
$1.75 a running foot. z

Red Cross

In the June 2lSt issue or Ine
Arizona Sun there was headline
story in which the assumption was
that the Little Rock Red Cross haC
Disseminated against a Negro by
sending him to the White Citizens
Council. AS a result of this story
the head of the local branch Of
the American Red Cross, Mr.. Lee
D. Krebs, made inquiry of the New
York office as to what happened
The New York office sent him &
copy of the letter of explanation
they had written to Roy Wilkins
Executive Secretary of NAACP.
The Arizona Sun is happy to
print the New York letter. It is
as follows:

ment | am acknowledging your
wire of today concerning a refer
raj supposedly made by the Red
Cross in Little Rock, Arkansas to
a man who was seeking transpor-
tation to Hampstead, New York
Upon inquiry of our Little Rock
Chapter we find that a Mr.. L. B
carter sought the assistance 0l
officials of the Veterans Admins
tration in Little Rock, Arkansas
in his efforts to secure tranSp0rta-
tion to New York where he wished
to join his wife. Upon being told
that no government funds existed
for this purpose he was referred
to the Red Cross Field Director
resident in this Veterans Admins
tration Facility. The Field Director
counseled with him but was un-
able to provide the funds he need
ed as the Red Cross does not have
a program of assistance in cases
of this type. We are advised that
during the course of the conver-
sation Mr.. Carter informed our
Field Director that some Of his
friends had been given assistance
by a leader of the White Citizens
Council. Our Field Director told
Mr.. Carter that he had no informa-
tion with regard to this organiza-
tion. Mr.. Carter then asked our
Field Director if he would help
him get in touch with the Council
It was at this point that our rep
resentative made a mistake While
he was motivated solely by a de-
sire to comply with Mr.. Carter's

Motors. The dissenters wanted
to uphold the lower court de-
cree which did not call for
complete divestiture, but had
fixed safeguards to keep du
Pont from dominating General
Motors.
On law enforcement cases,
Justice Whitaker was inclined
to uphold lower court convic-
tions unless there was a clear
violation of constitutional
rights. For instance, he dis
sented from the majority when
it reversed the first-degree
murder conviction Of Washing
tons Willie Lee Stewart.
Called a WOrrier
His own view of his work as
a Justice is that his opinions
were dispassionate, non-phil-
osophical eXpositions Of all the
facts.
Associates regarded him as a
worrier, who saw the pros and
cons Of the great issues and
labored far into the night to
reach a conclusion that salts
fled his conscience.
The approach he followed in
his five years on the highest
bench was expressed in these

specified, the issues involved.
His approach was direct and
uncomplicated.
Justice Whittaker's opinions
tended TO be briefer than those
Of some of his colleagues. He
would state his reasons for
reaching a conclusion without
devoting space to sophisticated
nicetieS. A fundamentalist in
his thinking, he went by what
the statute said, without look
ing for another meaning some
where in the legislative history
of the law.
Tough on Contempt
On issues, particularly deal
ing with contempt of Congress,
where the liberal wing often
saw the Government interfer-
ing with individual rights,
Justice Whitaker voted with
the Frankfurter wing of the
court for the Government.
Since more than half a dozen
cases are now pending in the
court on contempt questions,
an even split among the JUS
tees could develop. That would
result in upholding lower court
decisions, unless rearguments
are ordered with Justice Whit
aker's successor. participating
At least one major antitrust
case is now before the court.
On business cases, Justice
Whitaker has tended to op-
pose Government incursions
into private business affairs.
For instance, he Joined JUS

that he would name another
jurist from the East at this
time.
The likelihood that Secretary
Goldberg is being reserved for
the post to be vacated ulti-

Frankfurter would seem to
foreclose the appointment of
another Jewish jurist at this

Justice Louis D. Brandeis and

from a recent Civil Service

A strong effort will be made

mittee on Federal pay. The

it feels are necessary.
= Such a bill has been spon-

felt there was a good chance
that the House group would &C

Mr.. Davis intends to work
strongly for the provision, feel
ing that it would result in a
more realistic Government SAL
ary system by keeping up to
date on comparable industry
salary data as well as the Fed
eral services own experiences
in attracting and retaining key
people.
President Kennedy's Federal
pay reform plan contains q
provision whereby the President
would make annual reports and
recommendations to Congress

goes further than this and sets

LOW EMPLOYE MORALE

publican of Virginia, among
his Federal employe constit-
uents in Virginia's 10th district
(the most heavily populated
Government employe district
in the country, Federal en-
ploye morale is not very high.
OF those answering the ques-
ton, How would you rate the
morale of employees in your
agency?" SOL per cent said it
was medium or poor, while 400
per cent said it was good.
To the question as to what
changes they would most like
to see in the civil service re-
tirement system, the largest
group wanted full annuities

less of age.
In answer to the question
aside from pay raises and
