Federal Area
Residents Must
Pay Tuition
Maryland School
Ruling Is Made
Despite Tax
Sy II E Associated Press.

By II Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, April 11.-Resi-
dents of Federal areas in Maryland
are not entitled to send their chill
dren to county public schools with
out payment, Attorney General Will
liam c. Walsh ruled, even though
they must pay State income taxes.
The opinion, written by Mr.. Walsh
and his deputy, Hall Hammond, said
the Court of Appeals had held that
residents of such areas cannot
vote, cannot have the benefit of the
schools for their children, are ex-
empt from the usual county and
State taxes" and were subject to
other benefits and disabilities.
Can Obtain Divorces.
The status was changed so that
they could obtain divorces in Mary
land, the ruling set forth, and they
were made subject to the State in
come tax.
Their disabilities have not been
otherwise affected" Walsh wrote,
and therefore - they are not en-
titled to send their children to the
public schools of the county in
which the area is located without
payment"
Thomas G. Pullen, jr., State sup
erintendent of education requested
the ruling after 1t. Col H. NJ Black
of Edgewood Arsenal had asked re-
turn of tuition fees paid by him and
other residents of Edgewood reser-
walton because they were required to
pay the State income tax.
Mr.. Pullen said the matter had
implications for the entire State be-
cause of the many Federal reserva-
tions in Maryland.
Mr.. Walsh wrote that "the in
come tax does not directly contribute
to the support of the schools which
are largely maintained by local
taxation of real and personal prop
erty"
They have become tables to in
come tax only with the express per-
mission of the Federal Government
from whose funds they receive their
incomes, and on whose territory
they live," the opinion stated.
Declared Practical Problem.
"The problem presented is one
which can be adjusted in a prec-
tical, rather than a legal way We
understand that funds are at times
provided by the Government to pay
the tuition required by local au-
thorities. This subsidy method
could be extended to the areas where
it has not been so far used If this
cannot be done, application must be
made to the Legislature for relief"
At Fort Washington, one of the
two Federal areas in Prince Georges
County affected by the ruling, par
ents are not paying tuition charges
for their children as yet.
County Board of Education Of
ficials explained that application has
been made to the Federal Govern
ment to contribute a sum equal to
the tuition charges.
At Greenbelt, the Farm Security
Administration pays the county an
amount equal to the taxes on the
homes there, which includes tuition
charges.

about as II nothing had happened
Occasional raiding is regarded as
practically nothing and considered q
daily incident because the English
people have gone through so much
in the battle Of Britain, he stated, and
continued:
AL men, women and children over

Concerning the methods of handling
the war in England, Watts said there
is little dissension. The English. as
people of all countries, anticipate ac-
ton but wait until the government
gives it to them with few questions
asked. They follow Churchill, believe
in him, listen to his speeches avidly.
The people of England are not starv-

a steak; eggs are rare and only babies
can drink milk but people do not
starve because their food is rationed.
Watts stated.
England is grateful to America and
was glad to hear of our operations in

the kitchen and wash them well. Then
get mothers big green dish and see
how nicely you can arrange them.
Well put them on the sideboard."
Dot went off happily, carrying the
basket of fruit. Her mother seemed
to understand that she was longing to
have part in the work of the home.
MY being here is Helen's idea, to
celebrate your birthday" said to
Flora. "She insisted that I stay out
here with my knitting while she was
busy in the kitchen"
ooh, yes, she knew I would enjoy
having you to dinner, and she likes to
put into practice the cooking lessons
she has had at school," Flora replied.
II doubt if she needs any help from
me, but I'll go in and see how she's
getting along"
A few minutes later Flora returned
to the porch.
Helen is having fine time all by
herself" she told me. Dinner will be
ready by the time daddy and Jack get
here. It's nice to come home after
such busy day as I've had today
and find dinner almost ready! Helen
likes to do things for me, but it's
hard for her to realize that Dot Is
old enough to want to help me, too.
I'll have to talk to her about that.
Well arrange it so that Dot can have
her own share in the work"
I might have known that such a
good mother as Flora Barron would
understand the big-sister-li ttle-sister
problem and solve it wisely. Both Of
her daughters greeted us with smiling
faces when We went in to dinner
few minutes later. Dot was as happy
about the dish Of fruit she had ar
ranged as Helen was over the truly
delicious dinner she had prepared.
