proposed changes in the state's con

The amendment proposal which

special committee for its support is
that known as the Pearsall Plan
The Pearsail Plan, which is item
No. 1 on the officiai ballot for the
Saturday election, sets up machin

school may vote to determine whe
ther the schooi shall be closed in
the event integration of white and
Negro students is ordered. If ap
proved. and a school is closed, pa
trons might also obtain a small
tuition grant from public funds to
send their children to private
schools.

The Junior Woman's Club told
the Board of County Commissioners
yesterday that the organization will
make and hang curtains in patients
rooms and provide a television re
ceiver for entertainment but asked
that the board first make some ren
ovations on its own ^
Commissioners tolcT the delega
tion of young matrons that paint
ers are at work at the home at the

interior, and Supt Lee B. Newton
was directed to get the screens in
order at doors and windows.
The club women, with Mrs. Ai
King, project chairman, and Mrs.
Ernest Hill, club president, as
spokesmen, also recommended more
generous use of disinfectants, re
pairs or replacements for some of
the broken or worn out furniture,
some new tnattresees and floor cov
ering. Newton said he has called for
estimates and has found that floor
covering for the dining rooms wili
cost around $330
Our money is going to run out
fast when we get into painting and
floor covering." he told the board
Mr. Newton also said that the home
patients aren't used to things"
and that they tie their curtains into
knots, but expressed a willingness to
put them up.
The club women said they'd make
and put up the curtains, and that
they didnt mind if they are tied
into knots by the patients. We
believe in providing them with
some of the simple luxuries like
curtains and comfortable mattresses
and clean rooms will make them
take better care of their persons and
their home," Mrs King said
Through their spokesmen, the
ciub women also suggested that the

that they might see things as they
find them
