 ALLOTTED STATE
New Emergency Education Program Increases
 Appropriations

Under the new Emergency Edu- cation program this state has been allotted $32.400 each month, a con- siderable increase over the appro- priaticn for last year, it Is an- nounced in a communication from N. S. Light, director of the Bureau of Field Service, received here to- day.
 One of the measures recom- mended by Light, and which has been adopted by many cities in the state. is the formation of a community council on education. Such a council, he says may be considered better able to obtain results in building suitable conn munity programs than a number of groups with varied interests.
 The council, according to the plan, would act in an advisory capacity to the superintendent and board of education. Several sub- divisions of the group would deal with selected interests, such as the problem of unemployed youth, varied forms of education and so on.
 Expert service is available to su- perintendents and boards of edu- cation in planning and organizing the councils. through a special grant of Federal funds.

CUADIOSI GIVEN
 COURT DISCHARGE
Lakewood Road Man Given Benefit of Doubt By
 Judge McGrath

When a driver passes a red light and is brought into court he must be given the benefit of the doubt at all times in the opinion of Judge John F. McGrath. In city court this morning he discharged Felix Guadiosi, "A, of 176 Lake wod road, who was notified to ap- pear in court yesterday afternoon when he allegedly passed Q light.
 Patrol man AlbertDereskevicc testified that the light was red when Gaudiosi passed through a street intersection with his car.
 Guadiosi admitted that when he passed the light on the farther side of the intersection 1t was red. He told the court, though, that when he entered the intersection the light was just changing.
 with traffic lights it is a hard task to decide the guilt of the driver" declared Judge McGrath. q am in favor of giving the driv- CTS the benefit of the doubt" he added. He then discahrged Gau- diosi who testified that he is not working and was driving some body else's car at the time.
 Incidentally, when Gaudiosi's name was first called he was not present and his arrest was order ed. Judge McGrath's attention was called, later. to the acused when he asked the doorman why he was allowing somebody to enter half dressed. Who was it but Guadiosi himself, displaying most of his manly chest. Come up here Gau- diosi and let's hear from you. but first get a pin and cover yourself up a bit" called the judge. Gau- diosi didn't need pin. He jug pulled up the "zipper" and was already to take the stand.

During the past month there have been a number of raids by federal agents about the state. several Of them taking place in this city.

GERMANS LEAD
 STAIR CLIMBERS
Monument Atte n d a n { Rates LOndOners Better
 Than Americans .

London (UP)-Tourists from Germany. Denmark and Norway are the best climbers of the 311 steps, leading to the top of the monument, the pillar which was built by Sir Christopher Wren in 1917 to commemorate the spot on which the great fire of London started.
 This is the definite decision of L. G. Bentley, the attendant at the monument. who scorned the recent assertion of woman visitor from the United States that Americans can give Londoners good few points in making this wearisome climb to the top.
 Bentley asserts that the majority of tourists from the United States are frightened away when they learn they must climb to the top.
 When ] tell them there is no elevator and only 311 steps to climb they say it is too much like hard work and go away"
 Germans, in his opinion, are the most determined climbers, with the Danes and Norwegians running a close second. Londoners, on the other hand, are very rare visitors, but their lack of interest Is made up for by the flock of visitors from the provinces.
