LA ROE LAUDS
PAR0LEW0RK

Although handicapped by an in
adequate staff and small appro-
priations, the Board Of Indeter-
inmate Sentences and Parole to-
day is working more successfully
than at any time in its history.
Such is the statement Of Wilbur
LaRoe, r., chairman Of the parole
board, in reporting to the District
Commissioners that 80 per cent
of prisoners released in custody Of
the board during the fiscal year
1885 have made good"
HandicapS cited by LaRoe in
clude insufficient pay given to its
small staff and the fact that this
pay comes from L,orton Reforma-
tory rather than from the District
budget itself.
Hardened criminals occupy
little of the parole boards time,
LaRoe said, in commenting on
the work Of finding Jobs for young
people released after their first
offense. Business men in the Dis
trict have helped in placing these
offenders in positions, but diff
cultieS are still encountered in
keeping colored youths from be-
coming criminals again because
Of the social and economic con-
ditions under which their race
must struggle here, he added.

Toy Boston Bull
Wants q Home
With Yard

Bozo Pidney, folks, is toy BoS
ton bull, stin very young and
handsome, and his great problem
today is that he needs a home.
Of course, he has a splendid
home now, and he will not be
given up until a home equally as
nice is guaranteed, but Bozo
Pidney cannot help but wonder
what fate has in line for him.
Bozo Pidney is between 2H2 and
3 years of age. He is quite play
full, gentle, and affectionate. He
is beautifully marked. His present
owner wishes to place him in q
home where there is plenty Of
yard for him to play in and, If
possible, where there are no chill
dren.
If you would like to bid for
his adoption, notify Miss Doris

BOARD UNABLE
T0BO0ST PAY
OF TEACHERS

UPPER MARLBORO, Md,
March 31.-several members Of
the Prince Georges County Board
Of Commissioners said today they
had abandoned nearly all hope
of being able to adjust the county
budget to include enough funds
to restore the per cent cut in
school teachers salaries.
Last month, following disclosure
that the standing of the teach
ing staff Of the county vas being
endangered by the low pay scale,
members Of the board caid they
would try to restore the pay cut
as soon as possible.
They indicated today. however,
that the restoration would be
virtually impossible in view of
the unsettled state Of affairs in
the State Legislature at An
napolis.
Commissioner Joseph H. Bland.
ford said that q 20 to 26 per
cent increase in the county tax
levy was almost a certainty and
that restoring the teachers pay
cut probably would boost it to 40
per cent. The full-salary reSto.
ration would cost approximately
$23, 900.
The commissioners, at their
weekly meeting in Upper Mari.
boro this afternoon, are to take
up the budget problem again.
At the last meeting the commits
sion was beSeiged with demands
for road improvements and sew.
eral members said most Of the
demands would have to be granted
because Of the Importance Of the
roads. The County Welfare
Board is seeking funds to offset
the rapidly growing deficit in
CURED through aiding employ
ables since the Federal relief
funds were exhausted, stating
the deficit soon will reach $1,000.

'B SWIM POOL
PROMISED
BYBYRD

COLLEGE PARK, Md. March
31.-Definite assurance was given
the student body Of the University
Of Maryland yesterday that they
would get the swimming pool they
have been campaigning for for the
past four years. The announce
ment was made under somewhat
dramatic circumstances yesterday
morning in the office of H. C..
Byrd. newly appointed president
Of the university.
Several members of the student
swimming pool committee went
to Byrd'S office with the stated
purpose Of staying there until
they got q satisfactory answer to
the question Of whether or not
they were to get q swimming
pool" They took with them a pe,
tition signed by over 1000 stu
dents on the campus asking fol
the pool.
AuAb AC@OA 0AV0P
Richard Hunt, $500 Kansas Ave.
N. W., who served as spokesman
for the committee. had hardly be-
gun his prepared speech when
Byrd cut him short by displaying
the plans for the pool to be built
within the next two years.
According to the specifications,
the pool is to be so yards long
and 20 yards wide, making it the
largest in the Southern Confer.
ence. It is to be housed under a
separate building, with. q sliding
roof that can be removed in the
summer time to make it an open
air pool. The total cost will be
about 100000 and will be f.
nanced through continuation Of
the student special fees.
To Start In 1887
Byrd said that work would
start on the project in the fall
Of 1887 and would be completed
by the spring of 1898. He com.
plimented the members of the
student committee on their work
in getting the pool, saying that
1t was through their interest that
he had been able to secure per-
mission to build the pool.
Members of the committee were
william B. Mullet, Silver Spring;
Routh Hickey, Pope's Greek, Nd;
Richard Hunt, $3.50 Kansas Ave.
