eating q decrease in offenses.
Mr.. Watkins. Commonwealth
Attorney, introduces the subject
Of q curfew to the Board Of
Supervisors on the grounds that
our teenagers have q tendency
to stay out late is increasing the
problems of our police force.
Public DRINKS lead the league
in arrests and l don't believe
that they were our so called
after midnight teenagers. Il is
my opinion that something has
been left out Of these two
articles. or someone has been
misinformed.
I Joined the Navy at the early
age of II and fell victim of cur
few laws several times in a uni
form Of a man whose sole pur-
pose was defense Of his country
if need be. I have Travelled a
great deal in the past five years
and have seen many towns with
curfews, some needed them and
some did not. From what I have
seen, Farmville and Prince Ed
ward County fall far short of
needing curfew law. This is
only one mans opinion, but I
feel that a curfew is a type of
mass punishment. II this law is
passed and put into effect it
admits defeat and a confession
by the parents that they have
no ability to handle their own
children, therefore. the respon-
sibility Of getting their children
home early will be passed on
to the police force.
BY not knowing Mr.. Watkins
personally, / might be wrong in
saying his job probably brings
him in contact with the so-called
juvenile delinquents more so
than it does the kids that re-
spect the law and try to abide
by it. l honestly believe that if
one searches, he will be able
to find more good in the teen
ayers around Farmville and
area than he can find bad. l
also believe that BY concentrat-
ing more effort in other areas
of law enforcement would be
more effective than mass pun
ishment by means Of curfew.
If you find me wrong in my
way of thinking and the proof
of it is hidden somewhere, I for
one, would like to see it and
even then l would still find it
hard to believe and hate to see
it.

Face Reality
DR.. Moss Urges

Editor. The Farmville Herald:
The facts of the educational
sit a t 0 n in Prince Edward
County are beginning to come
into CT ear, and unavoidable,
focus. One awful fact has stood
in stark verify for over three
years-over half of the children
OF the county have been denied
normal educational opportunities
since the fall of 1859.
The other half Of the picture
now begins to emerge. Whether
1t be merely a handful, or
whether it be the one hundred
and eighty odd families t h a t
common talk on the streets has
1t, the white children Of the
county progressivly face the
loss of education.
Let us face reality. The basic
cost of the Prince Edward Foun
dation are irreducible. The only
possible exception to this would
be the reduction of the faculty
IN number, or in salary. The
operational and maintenance
costs of the school building, plus
interest charges, are bound to
rise. All of this is being met by
proportioning out the costs on a
per school child capita basis as
tuition charges. True, these have
not yet been raised.
Once the Foundation finds it
has to deny schooling to chill
dren whose parents cannot meet
the tuition charges-and even
the Foundation officials admit
this has begun-the per capita
charge is going to have to be
raised. Such increase will mean
that more families will not be
able to meet the costs, and so
more families will have ITO
make other arrangements for
the education of their children.
Thus an unbreakable spiral has
now been set up which can
end in no other way than edu-
cation being available only to
those children who can meet the
luH charges of ccmmercially-
run private schools. Do the
people OF this county know that
such ch ar g e S. not including
room and board, can and do
a n g e beyond $1,000. 90 Der

Indignation By Economic Reprisal

Although federal courts still
make the headlines in the school
integration fight other, federal
presSures are being exerted
more quietly through admin
strative agencies such IS the
U. S. Office Of Education.
Commissioner Sterling NJ. Nc
Murrin spelled out some OF the
present and planned pressures
in recent testimony before the
.. S. Commission on civil
Rights.
The Civil Rights Commission,
incidentally, now takes the view
that education is not our prob
lem. The Department Of Health.
Education and Welfare has the
responsibility for administering
Federal ucational pro-
grams :"
This attitude. however, has not
kept the Civil Rights Commits
sion from proposing severe
measures to achieve racial in
tegration in public schools. One
such proposal was to withhold
in whole or in part, the federal
funds which would otherwise 90
to segregated schools.
The Office OF Education pro-
poses a somewhat different ap-
proach, saying that withhold
ing needed educational assist
ance is at best last resort.
But this last resort APP
proach actually is involved now
in the Office of Education plan
to end segregation in bile
schools located in ''federally inn
pacted" areas.
Existing law provides I'll a t
such schools receive help from
the United States in both con
struction and operation. to help
provide education for the chill
dren of servicemen, defense
workers, or other federal en-
ployS who may be congregated
in given area. Up till now
local school boards have decid-
ed~how those schools shall be
operated.
But, says Commissioner Nc
Murrin, beginning in the fall of
1868, segregated schools will
no longer be deemed suitable"
to provide acceptable education
to federal" children.
Thus, by simple definition.
segregated schools will be de
prived of 'impacted area fl

rancial assistance. Such school
must either knuckle under on
the question Of integration-or
lose their federal aid. II they
refuse to integrate. then Uncle
Sam must undertake the task
Of building and operating "suit-
able" schools with federal funds.
But this threat is only one of
the administrative pressures
planned by the Office of Edu-
cation.
At another pressure point.
starting with the coming school
year, all colleges and universe
ties which conduct Institutes for
high school language teachers
and guidance counselors tunder
the National Defense Education
Act, must agree to avoid any
racial discrimination in such in
StituteS.
Again, if the field of voca-
tlonal agriculture and home
making, the Office of Education
plans to crack down on segre-
cation policies which now have
separate organizations for the
Future Farmers of America and
the New Negro Farmers of
America and also for the Future
Homemakers of America and
the New Homemakers of Ameri-
ca
Says Commissioner McMur-
rim.
Steps are now being taken to
prlrg the separate groups to-
gether into a single national or
ganlzation in each field"
IN other vocational training
supported in part by federal
furds, similar plans are under
way to end segregation.
For additional pressure tao
tics, studies have been ordered
into the incidence of segrega-
ton in libraries supported with
federal funds.
In announcing all Of the
coerclve actions and plans, Dr..
McMurrin h as stressed the
phrase equality of education"
but he has done so in such a
way as to leave no doubt that
to him. equality means in
/ tegration.
Winning integrated schools
that are inadequate educational
ly would be a questionable vic
tory, DR.. McMurrin says. But
he goes on to add. 9. inn

How Come Need
For Curfew?
Editor Farmville Herald:

Editor F'armV1lle Herald:
am on active duty with the
United States Navy. and for the
past two years / have been
stationed in Puerto Rico. During
my tour of duty in Puerto Rico,
my mother has sent me a copy
of the Farmville Herald c h
week. It is impossible for me to
estimate the amount of enjoy
ment that the Farmville Herald
has provided for me. The Farm
vile Herald has kept me up to
date on the latest happenings in
and around the Farmville area.
1t would have been impossible
for the personal letters I re-
ceive to keep me as well inform
ed as the Farmville Herald.
On the front page of your July
II issue. there read an article,
Arrest Down IA Per Cent Here
Last Year. I read the article
and. found it very interesting.
Upon finishing that issue laid
it aside and started on your
July 20 issue. The first article
to catch my full attention was
the one headlined, Teenager
Curfew May Be Considered.
Having graduated from the
ranks of the teenagers only
three years ago. I find it hard

In The Days Ahead

DRINCE EDWARD COUNTY will be
in the news more and more during
the days ahead. Newspaper, magazine
and other media seek something sensa-
tional here. Our problems are legal
There is little sensational.
Pressures begin to build.
Virginia Teachers Association plan to
educate 200 Negro youngsters in various
parts ofVirginia this year, which is COM
mendable. 1t is about time that Negro
organizations take an interest in educa-
ton. Educational opportunities were
lost because the Negro organizations
refused to cooperate in establishing
them in 1859 when county leaders Of
fered assistance. Every cooperation and
assistance has been offered any group
which has endeavored to alleviate the
situation. This summer the Christian
Student Conference composed Of white
and Negro divinity, teacher, and law
students, conducted crash program

The American Federation of Teachers
(ClO-AFT) meeting in Detroit this
week voted to instruct the union lead
ership to consider the feasibility of
sending group to Prince Edward
County to provide emergency educa-
ton"
Anonymous letters have been sent to
news media stating that needy white
children will be denied opportunities
by Prince Edward School Foundation
next year. Even though President Blan-
ton Hanbury made clear, unequivocal
statement that no NEEDY" child would
be denied schooling, or has been denied
schooling, some unfriendly newspaper
editors have completely misunderstood
News from Richmond indicates that
further litigation is to be expected this
week and Judge Oren Lewis will hear
the Prince Edward case on September
Z.
In the meantime all plans have been
completed for the reopening of Founda-
ton schools next Tuesday. P-TA meet
ings have been held throughout the
County in recent days and full registra-
lions are expected on opening day.
The future is not clear, but one thing
is certain, namely that educational
opportunities will be offered patrons
of the Prince Edward School Founda-
ton at reasonable tuition costs, adj
justed fairly and equitably to all pa
irons through granting of private
scholarships.
In the days to come may our people
maintain the Unconditional approach
which has characterized the county for
the past ten years. Stand steady.

TALE OF TEXAS LONGHORN

Like any good artist. Walt Dis ney frequently takes an established story and enriches it by using his imagination, as in "Sancho, the Homing Steer" a two-part nature novelette,.
 The story. which will be broad cast on Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color" Sundays, February Il and IS, is based on an actual in- eident of a Texas Longhorn, named Sancho, who left cattle drive and found his way home again, travelling farther than any Longhorn on record.
 J. Frank Dobie tells this story in his book, "The Longhorns." Dobie's story deals with Sancho's life on the ranch where he was raised. It tells of Sancho's joining cattle drive from which he escaped to make his remarkable journey home.
 However, Dobie does not describe the details of this journey, since, strictly speaking, only Sancho knew them, and Sancho couldn't talk
 This is where Disney's imagina- ton took over.
 Disney figured that Sancho must have encountered numerous natural and human obstacles And, in the tradition of his famous True Life Adventure stories, Disney continues Dobie's story and shows how San cho coped with hunters, wild ani-
