HjftfPUWasai THERE WILL BE A DANCE AT USUAL - Music by Fred committee, the following recom-i Hiciiuauims were mane: 1. We favor a sales tax to pro- vide additional financial simDort I for education. TTlfV not f.vnrmo ' sales tax presented a minority re port on the floor of the confer ence, which was defeated. 3. We do not favor further in crease in the state income tax. Those favoring an increase in the state income tax for support of education presented a minority re-; port, which lost. 3. We favor federal aid tor school ! building needs only when there' are no federal controls. This is an amended form of the original mo-' tion which referred to any kind of federal aid. 4. We believe this conference! should go on record to support j and expedite the State Tax Com mission's re-appraisal program', I that present tax-exempt properties. I real and personal, be re-examined ! and placed on the tax rolls where i justified: that educational pro-! grams be inaugurated in all coun-j ties to aid the State Tax Com mission in carrying out its re-appraisal program: and that county courts provide the county asses sors office with adequate funds to do an efficient and effective job. 5. We recommend that state aid to local school districts be in creased, such Increase to eventual' ly approximate a maximum of 50 per cent of current operational costs. 6. We recommend further study of reorganization of the several school districts of Oregon under the direction of the interim com mittee to be established by HJFt 19 In order to make better use of the tax dollar and afford better education.

Marvin Griffin called last nit-ht for an all-out war against both major political parties, charging they "are trying to see which can sink the knife deepest in the buck" of the South. The attempts of both Democrats and Republicans to aid the forces of integration will be successful, he said, "unless the people of the South unite and fight for our way of life." "Let every white person in these Southern states unite and then we'll turpentine some of those tim id souls in Washington," he said. "It's about time we let some of our congressmen, know that they are supposed to represent the Soutb in Washington instead of representing Washington in their own districts," he continued as he addressed the organizational meeting of the Shreveport Citizens Council. While Griffin made no reference to the national conventions this year: the meeting took on a presi dential air when one of the audi ence shouted: "Griffin for president." Eugene B. Cook, Georgia attor ney general, also spoke at the meeting and termed the U.S. Su preme Court's decision against school segregation "the most vi cious rape of Anglo-Saxon juris prudence in the history of free nations.
