Leaves 46 one-race schools
Plan ruled unconstitutional
Associated Press
DALLAS — U.S. District Court
Judge William M. Taylor Jr. said
Tuesday the desegregation plan
proposed by the Dallas school board
is unconstitutional because it leaves
at least 46 one-race schools.
Taylor also turned down a motion
by seven suburban school districts
that they be excluded from a con
solidation suit filed by the plaintiffs
in the desegregation action.

The judge scheduled another
hearing Oct. 6 on the consolidation
matter.
The school board drafted the in
tegration plan after several closed-
door meetings. It called for the bus
ing of 18,000 pupils, most of them
black. The district has some 142,000
pupils with a racial breakdown of
46.28 percent Anglo, 41.39 per cent
black and 11.53 per cent Mexican-
American.

The Dallas district already is bus
ing about 8,000 youths under a 1971
court order.
Taylor’s denial of the proposal
means the school board must de
velop another plan.
The judge said “the school plan is
not constitutionally adequate in at
least 46 ways. A federal judge is very
conscious of the fact that the school
boards are elected officials who have
in this case put the burden of ap
proval on the courts.”
Still before the court is a desegre
gation plan designed by the Na
tional Association for the Advance
ment of Colored People, NAACP,
which calls for additional busing and
a pairing of elementary schools.
Several black leaders strongly,
opposed the school board plan, ar
guing that too many one-race
schools remained and that the black
youths would carry the brunt ofbus-
ing.
Taylor appointed a desegregation
expert, Dr. John Finger of Rhode
Island University, to aid in drawing
up a new plan.
The judge also ordered the board
to draft its new plans behind closed
doors because “I want the particip
ants in these conferences to be left
alone for information and leaks. The
reason is simple — it’s not to pro
cure secrecy alone.
He said the experts need to by
working alone, away from the public
in order to come up with a plan.
Taylor, in his ruling, also said, “I
fear the school district did not up
hold its end of the bargain. Had the
district carried through, our prob-

Associated Press
TAMPA, Fla. — A sobbing Glenn
W. Turner, a sharecropper’s son
who parlayed his gift of gab into a
business empire he later lost, was
fined $5,000 Tuesday, ending what
he termed a seven-year battle with
the federal government.
Turner and three former as
sociates pleaded no contest to fed
eral misdemeanor charges of violat
ing Securities and Exchange Com
mission regulations. All were fined
$5,000, the maximum penalty.
, U.S. District Court Judge Terrell
Hodges accepted the pleas, drop
ping felony charges that the four
used the mails to defraud some
80,000 persons in an illegal pyramid
sales scheme to sell distributorships
in Turner’s Koscot Cosmetics Co.
The pleas abruptly ended the
six-week trial, a second attempt by

U. S. Representative Olin E.
Teague (D-College Station) has an
nounced a veterans education bill
that could extend all veterans edu
cation benefits to 45 month's regard
less of academic degree.
Teague said the bill was reported
by the Veterans Affairs Committee
of the House of Representatives.
Veterans are presently eligible
for 36 months of assistance if they
have served 18 months in the milit
ary. If they are seeking under
graduate degrees they receive 45
months of assistance.
“This 45 months will be particu
larly important to veterinary
medicine and medical students,”
Teague said Friday.
The new bill will require veterans
to use their benefits within ten years
after their discharge and does not
provide for any assistance after Dec.
31, 1987.
Eligible veterans must have
served at least 180 days active duty,
part of which must have occurred
between Jan. 31, 1955 and Jan. 1,
1976.
Veterans Administration housing
loans will also be extended under
the new bill to include veterans who
served between July 25, 1947 and
June 27, 1950.
Teague said he hopes the bill will
be considered by the House in the
next few weeks.
the government to convict Turner.
A first trial lasted nine months and
ended last May in a hung jury.
Pleading no contest with Turner,
41, were Hobart Wilder of Al
tamonte Springs, Ben Bunting of
Williamston, N.C., and Jess
Hickman of Pineville, La.
All charges against a fifth defen
dant, Clyde C. Cobb of Lakewood,
Colo., were dropped.
“I’ve been fighting the govern
ment for seven years,” Turner said
after his tearful courtroom scene.
“My money ran out and I couldn’t
fight any more. That’s what hap
pened.
Turner, 41, told Hodges he had
never intended to hurt anyone. “I
will spend my life doing the same
thing I’ve done — working with
people who didn’t have a chance, ”
Turner said.
Saying he faced $8 million in civil
suits and is $2 million in debt.
Turner added, “Despite it all, 1 11

lems at this time might be signific
antly simpler. But, I’m not inclined
to blame the school district entirely.
I think the business leaders of Dal
las have defaulted. They have left
the district to face their problems
alone. This is the height of short
-sightedness.
“I wish the antibusing advocates
would direct their energies to a
positive and constructive end —
quality education for our children.”
Dr. Emmett Conrad, a school
board member who voted against
the original plan, said he was sur
prised by the quickness of the
judge’s ruling but not by the out
come. “I pointed out the defect in
the plan from the beginning,” he
said.
Glyn Strother, a trustee who
supported the plan, said the deci
sion, 'is very much of a surprise. I
am disappointed. I feel the board
acted in good faith under the cir
cumstances and came up with the
best plan possible. We ll now do
whatever we are expected to do. ”
The school board voted 5-4 in
support of the plan turned down by
Judge Taylor.
