Authority Asked
To Treat Nearby
Child Amputees

A District Health Depart
ment Official asked the Com
missioners yesterday for au-
thority to continue treating
nonresident children at Dis.
trict General Hospitals clinic
for amputees.
DR.. Samuel Schwartz, CHIEF
Of the Districts Bureau Of
Maternal and Child Health
said there appears to be nc
clear-out authority in the
city's appropriation act fol
treatment Of these children.
He said that Of the so chill
dren now treated at the clinic
for loss Of q limb. about II
live in nearby Virginia and
Maryland.
The clinic, he said, Is H.
nanced by both District and
Federal funds TO treat non
resident amputee children, but
that salaries Of the clinic'i
medical personnel are paiC
with city funds.
"It would be a great hard
ship If the parents Of thes'
amputee children in nearb!
Virginia and Maryland arr
forced to take their children
to Richmond, Va, or Balti'
more, Nd, for treatment" DR.
Schwartz said.

Prince Edward, most Of the
county's white children have
been attending q private school
system originally financed by
donations, State tuition grants
and special tax credits.
Meanwhile, q research team
from Michigan State Univer-
sity which has been studying
the effects of closed schools
here released some tentative
findings.
In a report prepared for the
United States Education Office
the researchers said that since
1859 almost half the Negroes
who were in high school in
Prince Edward have left the
county.
OF those secondary school
Negro students who stayed
more than half obtained fur
ther schooling outside the
county but few continued their
education long enough to COM
plete IL years.

IT Per Cent Live
In Apartments

Eleven per cent Of Fairfax
County's population lives in
apartments, q one per cent in
crease over q year ago, the
Planning Department reports,
That compares with more
than 40 per cent in Alexandris
and more than so per cent in
Arlington.
Just under 10000 Of Fairfax
County's 262,64O residents who
live outside Fairfax City, vi
emma and Herndon live in the
l0,4S5 apartment units, the re-
port states.
When it adopted a set Of
apartment coming guidelines
last year, the Board Of County
Supervisors said 1t would halt
zonings and restudy its plan
ming when the ratio Of apart
ment dwellers reaches 20 per
cent Of the population.

u. S. Backs School Plan
For Prince Edward

FARMvILLE, Va, July IL
(APD An integrated school
system financed by private
grants and foundations is being
planned by the Justice Depart
ment in Prince Edward County,
where public education has lain
dormant since 1859.
Some LOO Negro children in
this county have gone without
formal schooling since the
county washed its hands of
public education four years age
rather than bow to desegrega-
ton orders handed down by the
Federal courts.
The Justice Department In
Washington confirmed yester-
day that william van den
Heuvel, a special assistant tc
Attorney General Robert r
Kennedy, has been negotiating
in the county with white and
Negro leaders to establish q
school system which would be
open not only to Negroes but
to low-income white persons
who cannot afford to send theil
children to segregated private
schools.
