LeUy's Grand Jury Story MayBe Made Public Soon
Judge Inglis Intimates Possibility in Comment From Bench-Counsel Discuss Extent of Secrecy
 in Scanning Grand Jury Minutes.

His ruling yesterday afternoon permitting defense counsel to inc spect grand jury minutes concern ing testimony of Attorney Edward c. Levy, state witness, establishes precedent i'm state judicial circles.
 Judge Inglis expressed the opin- ion yesterday that ultimately the transcript of Edward c. Levy's tes- timony before the grand jury would become public.
 The following is a stenographer's record of remarks of counsel and court yesterday after the Levy rec- ord had been given to defense coui1- sel.
 ATTORNEY CRAWFORD:
 May 1t please the Court: It turned out that Attorney Mo- Donough was @ little optimistic in the amount of time 1t required to get a reasonable grasp of the transcript that had been put at the disposal of the district att torney, and it appears first that if a reasonable opportunity is af- forded to make as complete an examination of the transcript that would be necessary to cross-ex- anime efficiently and expeditions ly, that the courts time will be saved in the long run. And I, therefore, suggest, your Honor, that for those reasons that ad- journment be had for the rest of the day until tomorrow morning. JUDGE INGLIS:
 I understand the situation and I think probably the defense counsel should have the oppor- tunity to thoroughly examine that transcript and they start the cross-examinnig of this witness without further waste of time. I think court should have to ad- journ for that. One other matter: The question as to how many copies of this transcript might be
 made and used by the counsels of this case. I have said that such copies might be made, but must be used only by the attorneys .. and also must impose upon each of you who receives the copy, the obligation to make absolutely sure that the copy does not get out of your possession; and that the contents of it are kept secret ex- cept of course as it must be dis posed of in court. Copies must not be used for anything except cross-examination, and if the law yerS will take that obligation, copies may be made and used by those lawyers.
 MURRAY:
 I suppose your Honor's ruling about keeping the copies secret doesn't apply to consultation of the counsel with his clients con- corning the contents, so far as

One Problem to
F ace New Board

We do not envy the members
of our Board of Supervisors in
their official positions. Four OF
them will soon begin to feel that
all of Dickinson County has the
Chimes. Fitzhugh Colley has
already found that out. Our Board
members are excellent men, and
we trust their fairness and integ-
rity. They will need intelligence,
industry, and integrity to keep the
county finances straight.
On one issue that will face
them, we take definite stand.
We believe in sufficient levies to
take care of our schools. We be-
lieve that we should add to our
school buildings and equipment
before it is too late. Buildings and
equipment come largely from local
funds. Since our assessed valua-
tons are decreasing every year,
we should have sufficient levies to
get what we need while we can.
It. we wait until our sources of
local money have further dried
up, it may be too late.
We hope that the legislature
will increa e teachers salaries
from state funds. That leaves
capital outlay largely to the locali-
ties. Last year the maximum levy
was not enough to give us enough
school money. Our needs will be
just as great this year. Therefore
the maximum levy is needed.
Educational ratings this year
placed Virginia next to the bot
tom in education. The state adj
ministration is going to do its part
to raise our rank. Will Dickinson
County do it's part?

What Kind Of
A Girl
BY MARY ARMSTRONG

D.
- that it seemed a pity for the
girls to tease her SO much. She
was small and meek and her hair
was straight and ash blonde and the
only time her face had any color in
it was when one of the Office girls
razzed her about boys, and then her
whole face would mantle with rebel
ious color, almost as though in uni
son with the blazing thoughts she
controlled so well.
Sally Travis was the worst hec-
tor Of all Sally. who had not one
beau but dozen at time. to stop
and hector poor mousy little Mary
Jane White, who somehow was new
err called MARY" by any one in that
vast Office. but simply prim, proper
Miss White"
Miss White didn't go to lunch till
last; she was forever finishing up
some extra work for some one so
that some one might make"
luncheon date, and about three
nights a week she worked over
time at night so that somebody
might get away early for pleasure
or what not. And today she had
looked wistfully after Sally as she
ran lifting to meet Don for lunch.
Wistfully, because suddenly little
Miss White was weary and very
tired Of being the office goat.
Because men who had loved
Sally were rarely inclined to notice
sober, sedate, mousy little girls
even on the rebound. For Sally
invariably '1et them out" as the
saying goes, as soon as more ELI
gible man appeared on the horizon!
Once, long ago, Sally had in a
wild burst of generosity invited Miss
White to 60 on party with crowd
of her friends and at first it al
most seemed as though Miss White
were going to accept: she looked so
happy she seemed almost pretty.
Then Sally had said with character
istic righteousness: ''Of course,
this isn't tame affair, Miss White!
We dress and dance and, uh, you
know!" and Miss White looked her
levelly in the eyes and said: II sup
pose you mean it's petting party,
Miss Travis?" and sarcasm dripped
from every word as Sally assured
her that she never went on any tame
affairs. Miss Whites slow, regret
full refusal brought sting of color
to Sally's face as she made some
sort of muttering retort that drained
all the wild-rose blush from Miss
Whites face and brought forth the
only reply the office had ever known
her to make under fire. 1t was SIM
ply: I'm afraid I'm not the kind Of
girl you're looking for for this party,
Miss Travis and it was just ex-
actly like Sally Travis to pick up
that phrase, misquote it and derive
the priggish, prim defense slogan of
every unloved, unsought girl: mot
that kind Of grill"
Sally was telling Don, now, about
Mary Jane. She was drawing a
word picture Of prin, prudish,
unlovely old maid and Don listened

Tie the Dog

We notice that several deer
have been released in the Jeffer-
son Forest in Virginia during the
early days of November. Wise
was one of the fortunate coun-
ties. We wondered why none were
given to Dickinson until we read
that dog control was essential be-
forea county could receive deer.
It appears that any county in the
forest area may receive deer if
the dogs are kept from wandering
loose.
We just want to raise the ques-
ton whether our loose dogs are
worth more to Dickinson County
than deer would be. We would
like to see our Board of Super
visors consider that issue. We I'M
derstood that it is within the pow
err of the Board to restrict dogs
from running at large. Gentlemen,
do consider it worth trying, SO
that deer may be as abundant in
our hills as they once were.

mean that quiet, sober, refined little
girl who worked in his department?
Why, she seemed like a regular
scout. But Don did not say that to
Sally; he remained discreetly silent
and let the much-made-up Miss
Travis rave on.
Two nights later Don came back
for some forgotten papers and
stopped in amazement to see Mary
Jane bent over a desk covered with
papers. It was almost seven and
she hadn't gone home yet! He felt
furious with the management for
this oversight and paused to speak
to the busily working girl.
"Oh, yes, Miss Travis had din
ner date SO l agreed to finish these
for her." It was said with no eff
fort toward martyrdom or sef-pity.
Look here, did Miss Travis leave
all that work for you? Why I sent
that through to her early this morn
ing!" he exclaimed. Don removed
hat and coat and. against Miss
Whites indignant protests, collected
half the extra work and, plunging
into it, finished it before 1880, just
as Mary Jane finished her half.
It seemed natural enough, then,
for them to 60 out and find lunch
room, and over the delicious fried
chicken and wafhes, became better
acquainted.
The soft, shaded table light cast
a. warm, pink glow to Mary James
face, and her hair, simply knotted
at the back of her head, seemed
somehow so much more dignified
and feminine than the sheared,
clipped heads of the other office
girls. And she wore lacy collar
and cuff set with her simple flannel
dress and for the first time in his
life, Don was struck with the lowell
ness Of truly feminine girl. He
became animated, eager; did his
best to be charming and interest
ing, and when he babe Miss White
good night, after the movie they
had later attended, he went home
walking on air-elated over having

life. Why, Miss White was a real
little lady! Aren't you afraid.
Miss White, that Wilbur will think
you that sort of girl?" asked Sally.

eye as Sally prepared to go to lunch
with Don.

Don's icy, even voice from the hall

Travis and Sally stared at him
with furious, enraged eyes as he
calmly took Mary James arm and
went softly down the hall!
