'Argument By ROBERT FRANKLIN ARLINGTON - The S c h o o l Board plans to use its unexpect­ ed $3 2 0 surplus to build multi­ 7 ,0 0 purpose rooms and classrooms at throe schools and to plan remodel­ ing at a fourth. On the recommendation of School Supt. Ray E. Reid, the board voted Thursday night to ask tho Arlington County Board to add the surplus to the 1 6 -6 91 2 capital improvements budget so that the money may bo used this fiscal year. The surplus would be used: o To build multi-purpose rooms at Peyton Randolph, Woodlawn and Hoffman-Boston Ele­ mentary Schools. . , • o To build two additional class­ rooms at Peyton Randolph and enough others at Hoffman-Boston Elementary to allow all clcmcntary-oge children in die area to attend that school instead of Drew School, where one grade is transported now. o To prepare plans and speci­ fications for remodeling of Curtis Elementary School and die addi­ tion of a multi-purpose room. Any money left over would go into a contingency fund. The hoard’ approval came s after an angry exchange be­ tween Reid and board member Janies Stockard. who said he was disturbed that die amount ot die surplus had not been made public before voters ap­ proved a $ 5 ,0 0 school bond 90 0 Issue on Nov. 7 . j The amount of |£e surplus is approximately half of the cost of the $ 5 ,0 0 addition tor Drew70 0 Elementary School, which was the Principal purpose of the school bond issue. Stockard was the one board member to cam­ paign against the issue. Dr. Edward Baun, assistant su­ perintendent for finance, said that I while the amount of the surplus had been known tor a month and a half, it was processed in ac­ cordance .with practices establish­ ed for 1 years. 0 "WE'RE JUST ABOUT guilty of irresponsibility to the voters,” Stockard said. "We present a oong-and-dance to them at their expense saying we need money . . . I just regret that I wasn't more alert and I'm prepared to enter my apologies to die people ot Arlington.” Reid protested that neither lie nor Biaun was involved in tho bond issue campaign. “ don't I like to be accused," he said an­ grily. "Mr. Stockard, you amaze me. I can't tell who you sup­ port." Stockard then said he diought School Board Chairman Elizabodi Campbell and Vice Chairman L. Lee Bean had some responsibil­ ity too. “ That's a ridiculous state­ ment,” snapped Reid. "Even i more ridiculous than what i you've already said.” 1 Bchii suid the $370,000 would not conic dose to paying, for the Drew addition and so would make no difference in the need for the bond issue; But Stockard said, "Tonight we have halt enough. Tomorrow we might have three-quarters. By the end ot die sdtool year we might have enough."

Livingston St, Arlington, Virginia February 16, 1952 Senator Charles R. Fenwick Richmond Hotel Richmond, Virginia Dear Sirs I am writing you not as a representative of any group but as a oitizen deeply concerned with the future of our state. As Governor Battle has said, a Supreme Court decision outlawing public school segregation would call for the best brains and leadership we have. No thoughtful person believes that an overnight change of that particular section of Virginia life could result in anything but chaos and deep trouble in many, if not most of our communities. It seems to me that the handwriting is on the wall, clear and plain for all to read in the decisions which the Supreme Court has handed down during the last four or five years. Sooner or later, perhaps as soon as a year from now, segregation is going to be ruled unconstitutional. When that happens, we can perhaps evade the results for a few years by some such device as the Moses proposals but unless we get the brains and leadership Governor Battle speaks of, the time we gain will buy us nothing save more bitterness and increased bad feeling. To me the intelligent approach to such a problem is to face it and try to solve it in as orderly a manner as possible. I would be very proud indeed if Virginia could take again the position of enlightened leadership which she has held so often in the past. I am enclosing a plan for gradual abolition of segregation over a fifteen year period. It has I believe certain merits whioh I have listed with it. It is advanced with considerable humility only as a take-off point for better brains than mine. Since I am not completely unaware of political realities, I am not overly optimistic as to its general reception but I feel I must raise uy voice.through this thorny ground. r\nQ Uk . Sincerely yours. Edith T. Burton �A Plan for the Gradual Orderly Elimination of Public School Segregation 1, A three year period of preliminary community and teacher education. During thia t ime intensive work would be done with teachers both white and colored, to give them a greater insight into intercultural relations and the problems to be faced, 2, During the fourth year, segregation would be abolished in the first grade only, 3, During the fifth year, segregation would be prohibited in the first and second grades. i, t Each year thereafter an additional grade would be open to both races on a non-segregated basis. 5. At some time during the first five year period, all the state institutions of higher learning would be opened to both races according to plans developed by the institutions themselves. At the end of a fifteen year period we will have graduated from our public schools a class of children who have had no classroom experience with a segre gated school system. The initial introduction of non-segregation would be to very young children whose patterns of behavior are not already firmly set. Serious race trouble is impossible where six and seven year olds are concerned. Because of the preliminary educational period, only children less than three years of age at the time of the plan's adoption would be affected. This means in general, children of younger parents, parents not quite as set in their ra cial feelings as the older people. No child who has been accustomed to school segregation would be distrubed. It is recognised that the major problems of adjustment will occur in the secondary schools. In areas where residential segregation is practiced, very little actual intermingling will occur until the secondary level is reached. Sinoe this stage of the plan will not be reached for nine to eleven years (depending on the sohool system whether 6—3—3, 7—U or 8-l|) plenty of time is given for increased community acceptance and working out locally the thorny problems involved. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
