A Fairfax County group now
beng formed plans to builc
row houses for low-incomt
Negroes, with the aim Of hold
ing monthly payments or
multi bedroom units under

Called the Fairfax Co-opera-
tive Housing Council, the en-
ryonic citizen group hopes to
bring together several private
organizations in the project.
The council hopes to per-
suade the year-old Hurelco
Land Development Corp. to buy
between five and Is acres Of
land near Gum Springs, one OF
Fairfax County's worst slum
areas. 1t is seeking the advice
of a Washington organization,
Foundation for Cooperative
Houses, on legal and sales as

A Washington architect
Eason Gross, has drawn plans
for units ranging in size from
two to five bedrooms, to be
built eight units to the acre.

In another court develop
ment. an agreement was
reached under which only two
of the 10 local Danville news
paper staff members will be
called on to testify.
Len w. Holt, Negro Norfolk
attorney for the defendants,
had requested that the 10 -
virtually the entire local news
staffs of the morning Danville
Register and afternoon Bee
be subpoenaed for trials.
But Mr.. Holt and the news
papers counsel reached an
agreement by which only those
newsmen who witnessed a June

would be called on to testify.
Other Key Developments
There were these other de-
velopments connected with the
racial struggle yesterday and
last night:
/. Two Negro girls briefly
picketed the closed office Of the
FBI at the post office building
but left without incident. One
carried a placard rea ding,
What has the Justice Depart
ment done?"
The Rev. L. w. Chase, Ne
gro indignation leader, said
the FBI office was picketed
because I'VE have all this EVIL
dence of the mishandling of
our folks and think they ought
to do something about it."
2. Officials of the Danville
Christian Progressive Associa-
ton in an open letter invited
Mayor Julian Stinson and all
city councilmen to attend a
meeting at High Street Baptist
Church Thursday night at
which the DCPA said, films
would be shown of violence
during a June 10 demonstra-
ton at the city jail.
Mayor Stinson promptly an
nounced he wouldn't attend. He
said the councilmen probably
wouldn't. either, but it was up
to them.

able distances by bus 80 as to
eliminate ''racially iinbal-
anced" schools - defined by
the commissioner Of educa-
ton Of New York State as
schools in which the enroll
ment is more than SO per
cent Negro. Already students
from the Negro schools In
New York City are being
moved into predominantly
white schools. It is being
urged that white children be
similarly moved to schools in
Negro neighborhoods. All this
is allegedly an effort to pro-
vide better education for the
Negro children.
So If the handling Of the
school problem causes ag-
gravation among white
citizens and If there is an
uneasiness among workers
as to their future employ
ment. there will doubtless
be in the 1864 campaign an
exodus of white voters from
the Democratic Party in the
populous Northern States
which have hitherto voted
so regularly for that party.
Any gain in the Negro vote
which, ever since the re-
lief subsidies Of the 1930s
has moved over in large
part to the Democratic
Party-would hardly offset
now the loss Of white voters.
SO 1t isn't Just in the
South where the Kennedy
administration today is in
political trouble. The mass
demonstrations have by no
means helped the situation
for the President. For many
such protest parades have
been held in the North,
where racial friction, though
not as widely publicized
heretofore, has for the last
few years been increasing
due to the influx Of Negroes
in large numbers from the
South.
The Kennedy administra-
ton, which has been making
q direct bid for Negro votes
by responding to the de-
mands OF Negro leaders, win
soon try to find ways to APP
pease the white vote. But
the effect Of what has al
ready happened can hardly
be minimized. and that's
why the outlook for the 1864
election contest has suddenly
changed from what seemed
a certainty to a big uncer-
tainty for the administra-
ton.

Long after these brief excite

reconcile their policies with
American purposes and

President Kennedy can be
excused II he feels a well con-

European tour is being de-
scribed in the American press
and on television. For weeks
before he left Washington,
many commentators were adj
vising him to stay at home.
Now many Of these same peo-
pie are measuring the size
and enthusiasm Of the Euro
pean crowds and are telling
us that q personal triumph
for the President is in the

tions reflect trivial standards
In reporting that are I'M

judgment that his visit to.
Europe now would be q USE

commentators, particularly
on television, with their COM
petition in cliches and their
strident platitudes. we are
beginning to wonder exactly
how much guidance they are
giving the American people.
Did these commentators
expect Mr.. Kennedy. or any

the United States to bring

that he would get a heroic
welcome in Germany.

their Intellectually confined

claim that only on the racial

is equally evident on social,

ton.
Whatever the Presidents
popularity In this and other
countries, his prestige In the
Congress Of the United
States is at low ebb. Ac-
cording to old hands in Con-
gress, the resentment against
the President Of the United
States has no parallel except
possibly the revolt against
Franklin D. Roosevelt when
he sought to pack the Su-
preme Court with new APP
pointees. Roosevelt lost his
hold on Congress then,
though he continued to enjoy
a public adulation which Mr..
Kennedy has never had in
anywhere near the same de-
gree.
The congressional discon-
tent with Mr.. Kennedy is not
confined to the Southern
Democrats, nor the Republic
cans. The liberals are dis
satisfied with what they
consider to be half meas

crates think Mr.. Kennedy
has helped to create, by I'M

vura statements, the condi-
tons for racial demonstra-
tons Of a dangerous char
acter. When faced by this
dangerous condition, the
Kennedy tone quickly
changes. Equality will have

islation alone.
