The tax benefits are offered as an inducement to Uie expansion of defense-essential industries.

Sen. Sam J.

Ervin Jr. said "he brought to the discharge of his duties as congressman a high degree of intelligence, a vast store of common sense and an unsurpassed intellectual honesty." Sen. Alton A. Lennon added, "No man in the history of our state has rendered more distinguished and unselfish service." There were many others who expressed sim ilar sentiments. Gov.

Umstead. in a lengthy state ment, said Doughton "probably sponsored and influenced the passage of more good legislation and helped to kill more bad legislation than any man in the history of this nation. "Children yet unborn will be benefitted by legislation sponsored by him, such as the Social Security Act, and the Unemployment Compensation Act. "He was rugged and he was kind. His loyalty was unsurpassed and his devotion to his friends a passion of his life.

He lived simply but greatly. He walked intimately with many presidents, and he walked, as a friend, with the bum- blest citizens in his district. "I am grateful for his long life of service, and feel a deep personal loss in his passing. To the members of his family I extend my heartfelt sympathy." Doughton, always keeping his 6 foot, 2 inch frame straight as a pine as he spoke, was known far and wide for his terse, homespun comments on political matters, es pecially taxation. Once, when a secretary of the treasury was asking for an addi tional 10 billion dollars in taxes, he commented crisply: "You can shear a sheep every year but you cant skin him but once.

His philosophy on taxation was summed up with the words, "Get the most feathers you can with the fewest squawks from the goose" and he explained his "Muley Bob" nickname by saying that "I don't like to change a decision, once made." Doughton, who would have been 91 on Nov. 7, was born in the mountains near Laurel Springs in the dark Civil War days of 1863. He was named after Gen. Robert E. Lee, under whom his father, a Confederate captain, was serving.

As a young man, he farmed, ran a store and later became a bank president. In 1903 he was appointed to the State Senate. In 1910, he ran and five years later he was elected to the State Senate. In 1910, he ran for Congress, defeating Republican incumbent Chalrles H. Cowles.

Doughton's brother, Rufus A. Doughton, served as the state'sl lieutenant governor. He also died at age 90. Survivors Include two daughters, Mrs. B.

Attendance had been only about a third of normal. Those who had opposed integration claimed today that the return to segregation is 'the first step toward our ultimate goal of making sure that no Negroes attend white schools in the state." The 11 Negro students hare not been assigned to another school. The executive board of the State Board of Education is expected to consider the problem within a few days. President Edmund F. Stein- er of Milford new school board said he expects they will be sent to an all-Negro school at Dover, 18 miles awav.

In East St. Louis. 111., about zoo persons appeared at a district school board meeting Thursday night and demanded the board's resignation. Led by Paul Cmtty, a filling station operator, the group protested increased enrollment of Negroes at the Centerville grade school near East St Louis. The board members are to meet next Monday with a 10iember committee appointed by Chitty to discuss the situation.

Chitty said about 100 Negroes who formerly attended an all-Negro school, now are enrolled at Centerville, which has had a few Negroes enrolled for vears. In a brief filed with the Supreme Court, the Topeka, Board of Education has outlined plans for full school integration by Septem ber of next year. The board said there is no need for the court to issue desegregation orders because segregation is being ended with "full Dublic cooperation and ac ceptance' by both white and Ne- nro dudiis. teachers and parents. Toueka board was a oeienoant in one of the cases wnicn nrougnt the U.S.

Supreme Court ruling last May against public school segrega tion. A different reDort was sent to the Supreme Court today by Flor ida's Attv. Gen. Richard W. Ervin.

He filed a 243-page brief calling for time to work out problems raised bv the court's decision. The brief said the norma scnooi system would be endangered by any "decree ot immediate desegregation or even a decree of a period of short delay which does not permit a large degree of local determination." Ervin submitted Uie brief as a friend of the court in answer to a request from the Justices that all affected states present their views on how the problems created by the May 17 decision outlawing segregation of the races in the public schools can best be worked out. The court will hear oral argu ments on the briefs beginning Dec. 6. Florida will have one hour to present its case.

A period oi gradual adjustment to desegregation must be permitted in Florida with broad powers ol discretion vested in local school authorities to determine administrative procedures," Ervin said in his brief, which was prepared with the help of Asst. Atty. Gen. Ralph E. Odum.
