C|agett Identifies
Himself as Source
|0f SuitIand Statement
Motive Was to Bring
Water Problem to Area,
He Replies 10 Morbury

j. Donald Clagett, Montgomery
County (Md) member Of the WASH
ington Suburban Sanitary Com
mission, publicly identified himself
today as the source of a statement
on Monday urging residents of Suit
land to take quick action in remedy
ing "a major deficiency" in water
and sewer service of the area.
State Senator Charles c. Marbury.
Prince Georges County Democrat,
had attacked the statement yester-
day, declaring legislation already is
under consideration in Annapolis
which would solve the problem,
brought to a head by plans for a
Federal office building project.
THE only motive can conceive
for such an announcement at this
particular time" Mr.. Marbury said
yesterday, sis to try to high pressure
a neighborhood into coming into
the sanitary district, or to try to
block the project and have it To-
Gated in some other county than
Prince Georges"
| Didn't Think He Was Serious.
Il hardly thought Senator Mar
bury was serious in questioning my
motives" Mr.. Clagett replied today
Montgomery County is doing
very nicely and is getting its share
of Government projects"
The Sanitary Commission member
commented that his original decla-
ration had "the desired effect ir
bringing forcibly to the residents
that if they really wanted to come
into the sanitary district they woulc
have to do it of their own motion
and that time was limited and leg.
islation necessary"
He said he attended a meeting O
Suitland citizens less than a month
before the Government project wa
announced and found unanimou
opposition to bringing the arei
within the sanitary district.
Called Attention to Problem.
Mr.. Clagett said one purpose o
his statement was to call attention
to residents of the area that whethe
they were within or without tn
district, the problem of water ant
sewer service to that particular are
was a serious one which had no
been solved.
The unexpected action of tn
Government and the tremendous in
crease in the population threw int
the lap of the Sanitary Commission
at time when its facilities wer
being pressed to the limit, anothe
situation which required a grea
deal of study" he said.

Cleveland rookie taught himself magic SO he could
teach safety to children and got magic results
Here is the thrilling record of his crusade
by 10 Chambexlin

XYEARS ago when Arthur Roth was a
ruddy-faced rookie cop, wearing his blue
- uniform for the first time he smiled
CHEEKY Hello" to little girl in the slums
Arthur loved kids. To his amazement, the girl
fled in terror - afraid of his uniform
That was what started Roth on his amaz-
ing career. He swore he'd change kids atti-
tude if it took a lifetime. And he has done just
that. Today, the youngsters of Cleveland
besiege him for his autograph, rank it with
Joe DiMaggio's. Cleveland adults regard him
as one of their most valuable citizens
He has been called America most remark
able cop It's not likely - unless you live in
Ohio - that you ever heard of Captain Roth
Yet it's not improbable that some child you
know is alive and safe today because of him.
He did practical things about safety when no
body else was interested, and he kept dog
gedly at it for years when he couldn't get
cent to spend on such work. The things he
accomplished have spread nationwide until
they are commonplace now. And he's still
doing things for youngsters, this bachelor
without kids of his own.
An instance:
Not long ago Captain Roth, as head of
Clevelands Juvenile Bureau, realized that he
had to have camp facilities where he could
help underprivileged youngsters. That was
the place to work with them - out of doors,
in the woods and fields, under the sky. It's
hard to do much with kid if you wait until
he's behind bars.
Evening star., 1941-03-02

From Cleveland these ideas have spread from
coast to coast
It's hard to realize today what elementary
labor it required to make people safety
conscious. When Roth went on the force, the
auto was still new. Comedy skits about motor
lists were still good for laughs in vaudeville -
but not with him. He saw too many acci-
dents. After his days work he visited the
victims in the hospitals, especially the chill
dren. Sometimes Roth couldn't sleep or eat.
Il can't stand seeing these kids banged
up," he told his fellow cops. We're not doing
our jobs
Roth went to his superior officer and ex-
planned, simply, what he had in mind: Ito
find out the things that cause auto accidents,
and educate people not to do them" The
officer said there wasn't any money for such
work. 20. K, said Roth, "I'll work without
any," He became a one-man investigation
squad for the city of Cleveland - the first
to develop such work and to keep decent
records
At first Roth had to walk or go by street
