Alexandra 10 Decide
On Need Of Car Pool
After City Survey
OCD Block Leaders
To Distribute Cards
Among Residents

A survey to determine whether
there is a need for establishment
of a permanent car pool clearing
house in Alexandria will be made
this week by city block leaders, ac-
cording to Mrs. Dudley Lee, chair
man of the Co-ordinating Commit
tee for Civilian War Services.
State civilian defense and OPA
officials emphasized the necessity
for such setup at meeting last
week of civilian defense workers in
Alexandria.
Cards furnished by the Office of
Civilian Defense will be distributed
and residents may indicate whether
they wish rides or passengers or
whether they desire to join a car
pool.
Listed on the cards, in addition
to the home address of each person,
will be the destination of the rider
or driver and hours of work.
On completion of the survey, Mrs.
Lee said her committee will be able
to determine whether the need for
clearing house exists. If there is
such need, the clearing house will
be set up in a central location in
the city.
While the basic principles of the
system described by State officials
at last weeks meeting will be fol-
lowed, Mrs Lee said that since the
majority of Alexandrians work in
Washington, the determining factors
will be the destinations and hours
| rather than the section in which
the person lives.
The tentative plan is to divide
Alexandria into only two large sec
tions, on the theory that it is easier
to 60 a little out of the way there
than in Washington.
The committee will block out zones
on a Washington map and riders
will be referred to cars going to the
section of Washington in which
they work and at the same hours
as theirs.
The purpose of the clearing house
will be to assist persons in finding
rides or passengers if they do not
work in large plant or Govern
ment agency which already has a
transportation committee.

Will Be Discussed
By Alexandra P-TA

Judge Duncan to Speok
At Annual Meeting Of
Council Tuesday

"A curfew law for Alexandria
which has been proposed by several
city organizations, will be the SUBJ
ject of the annual meeting of the
Parent Teacher Association Council
at pm. Tuesday in the Mount
Vernon School.
Representatives of organizations
that have been considering the pro-
posal will discuss the advisability OF
a curfew. Judge James R. Duncan
of the Civil and Police Court will
discuss the question from the
juvenile court angle. Miss Edith
SnoWden, representing a group of
churchwomen who first proposed
such law, will present the views
OF, her group.
The Rev. William Basom, presi-
dent of the Council of Social Agen-
cies, will speak for that organization
and Mrs J. w. Aldrich, president
of the Maury School P-TA, will dis
cuss the use of the curfew law in
other cities.
~ Mrs. Warne Will Speak.
In addition, Mrs. William Warne
will give a resume of the recently
completed survey of juvenile deten-
ton made by the National Proba-
ton Association. The survey was
authorized by the City Council at
the request of the Council of Social
Agencies, and copies of the report
were made available to members
of various city organizations about
a month ago.
The report said employment of a
policewoman would be of greater
value than curfew.
The City Council authorized en-
ployment of a policewoman several
months ago, but none has been
appointed,
Judge Duncan said he believes
some action must be taken to keep
young girls from lettering on the
streets at night, and it is his hope
that Police Chief Edgar Sims will
be able to find suitable applicant
for policewoman soon. While he
does not favor curfew law, he
believes some other solution will
have to be found unless police
woman is hired

to discuss the problems confronting

day. new officers will be elected and
installed.
Mrs. Everett Hellmuth. president,
will preside. Mrs. Joseph Galloway
is vice president of the council, Mrs.
Warne, secretary, and Mrs. James
Gore, treasurer.
Mrs. Flynn said that while public
interest in the curfew is great, lack
of time will make it impossible to
have a general discussion of the
speeches. She urged all members
of PIT. A. groups in the city to
attend.

also to bestir themselves to genu-

end that public opinion may be
