Officers also were told that negro, who had a stocking ing his head and face, threw kind of liquid in the eyes of the woman’s dog to prove to her what he would do if she made outcries. An officer at DeKalb police head¬ quarters said a report turned in by investigating policemen quoted the white woman as saying that the Negro jumped from behind a re frigerator and struck her in the stomach when she returned home from visiting a neighbor. The negro was wearing plastic type gloves and army utility clothes, police were informed. Af¬ ter the negro left, the woman went outside to her carport, ,vhere her screams for help were heard by a neighbor. The neighbor freed the woman who later received treatment by a private physician, officers L. 0. Webb and G. B. Hightower said. Officers said the Negro threat¬ ened to kill the woman’s daughter if she called police. — Atlanta Journal. Virginians Thwart Federals On an April midnight of 1775, Bam Revere inane nis ramous ntle. At 3:00 A. M. in August of 1964 several nunareci citizens of Prince Ailward County, Va., rode to fore¬ stall an injunction against free¬ dom of cnoice. xne latest move by the white peopie ot Prince Edward County a) aeep ineir oniidren out of pub¬ lic schools, integrating this autumn under court order, truly has been a midnight surprise. On the evening oi Aug. 4, tne county board ot su¬ pervisors held an unscheduled meeting ami authorized the ment of kui.ioii lunds for those who wisned to attend private segre¬ gated schools. By midnight, parents aad been no titled of the availability of the grants. By 3 a. m. the re¬ cipients were en route to pick the banks were doing a booming ousiness of cashing check — $155 mr high sCaoal pupils and $145 for elementary. The schools of Prince Edward have been closed since 1959. While Virginia state law authorizes public grants for private tuition, the 1960 ruling of a U. S. judge held such grants in stalemate. It was held at that time that Prince Edward could not make such funds avail¬ able so long as public schools were closed to avoid integration. Fur¬ thermore, federal court order has resulted in the forced opening of public schools in September. The quick action of this Virginia county’s supervisors apparently forestalls the possibility of new in¬ junctions against tuition after the schools open. U. S. and World Report comments all of this caught the Negro ers — and their lawyers — surprise. The people of Prince do not take kindly to the sition of federal force in the ministration of their local system. They are neither nor subservient in meeting the ation. it is only one more instance the action an independent will take to resist the of states’ rights and freedom of choice. All over America, people wondered about the next in the Prince Edward story. Now they know! — Editorial in Atlanta « y. # & % Raccoon 01911 National WIMtlfe Maratloa O ‘ Raccoon 0 .19“ "3‘!" MC. w TO SERVE YOU - While cudgeling our thinking process to produce an editorial in commemoration of National News¬ paper Week (Oct. 11-17) we came across a gem in the Littleton (Col.) Independent that so Completely ex¬ presses our feelings that we are reprinting it: Instead of telling you how good newspapers are, we think you are entitled to know what a newspaper tries to do. Its goal is to help you under¬ stand your environment and to help you change that environment when this seems wise. At this modest-size newspaper there are sixteen men and women attempting to pass along the facts you should know. You are made aware of regulations like leash laws, trash-burning laws, and zon¬ ing ordinances so that you can keep out of trouble. You are told how to get your garbage picked up, where to dump your trash, what’s on the movies, and what the title of next Sunday’s sermon iff. You learn the hours of the post office and the courthouse, the time you pay your taxes without penal¬ ty, and about any contagious dis¬ ease in your neighborhood. You also discover proposed changes in school programs, mill levies, employment prospects, and recreational projects. You can turn to your newspaper for reliable shopping news. If something goes wrong in the community, most people look to their local nespaper for a remedy. Courageous newspapers respond to these situations and generally get them corrected often losing thousands of dollars in business during the crusade. Newspapers are human institu tutions guided by a great tradition. Unlike the press in most countries, the American newspapers are self supporting organizations. They don’t depend on a political party, a church, or an industrial corpor¬ ation to stay alive. Consequently, the United States newspaper is as free to communicate with its pub¬ lic as any on earth. This is not to claim perfection. The press, when it is wise, listens to critical com¬ ment as readily as it expresses critical comment of others. University Opens Study of Tourism (n Mountains ATHENS, Ga. (AP)— A year¬ long study of the tourist potential of the northeast Georgia mountains has been started by the University of Georgia. Dr. William B. Keeling, who will direct the study, said tourism is not a new concept in Georgia’s mountains, but its full potential is far from being realized. The Georgia Mountains Area Planning and Development Com¬ mission has contracted with two divisions of the university for the extensive study. THESE COUNTIES Taking part in the study is the Bureau of Business and Economic Research, wihich Keeling heads, and the Institute of Community and Area Development. Counties involved in the long range study are Banks, Dawson, Forsyth, Franklin, Habersham, Hall, Lumpkin, Rabun, Stephens, Towns, Union and White. The organization framework is three-fold in that it includes the Georgia Mountains Association, the planning and development body, and the Georgia Mountains Com¬ mission, which has authority to finance projects which may come out of the other two agencies. HOPE FOR FUNDS It is hoped that local, state and federal funds will be available for such projects which may come out of the study. The study under way at the uni¬ versity will inculde: 1. Description of current status of tourist industry. 2. Inventory of current facilities and attractions. 3. Identification of potential at¬ tractions. 4. Inventory of special services available. 5. A tourist development plan. 6. Presentation of study results throughout the area. 7. Basic economic projections for the area. *
