Radford-WI Merqer
Proposal Reported
Dorden Said to Advocate
Consolidating Colleges
By the Associated Press.

RICHMOND, May 8.-The Times
Dispatch said it was informed by
Gov. Darden today that a recon-
mendation that Radford State
Teachers College be converted into
woman's college of Virginia Poly
technic Institute will be submitted
to the next General Assembly.
The paper said it was informed
of the pending recommendation by
the Governor at Radford in a tele-
phone conversation following infor-
NAL discussions of the proposed
change with the presidents of the
two institutions-Dr. Julian A. Bur-
russ. of VPI, and DR.. D. w. Peters
of Radford.
The Chief Executive said the con-
solidation not only would be in the
interest of efficiency, economy and
avoidance of duplication, but also
would have other values for both
schools, the paper said.
The Governor was quoted as say
ing that tremendous advantage
would accrue for the Radford stu
dents through opening to them OF
certain VPI facilities, teachers and
laboratories, and the availability OF
the Radford Colleges resources
would be of value to VPI in han
ding the growth of education in
struction which already has started
at the institute.
The Times-Dispatch reported that
details of the merger plan had not
been worked and that no elabor-
ately itemized project was planned
by the Governor. The paper said
that Gov. Darden reported both
presidents seemed sympathetic to
the proposal and were interested in
having studies made to develop the
projects possibilities.

Judge Braut Calls
Meeting Of County
Civil Defense Chiefs
Will Point Out Failures
In Lost Mondays
Mobilization Drill

Characterizing Mondays mobiliza-
ton drill as very much worse than
it should have been," Judge Albert
E. Brandt, Montgomery County civil
ian defense director, has called a
meeting of all county civilian defense
chiefs of service to discuss efficiency
in the drill. at 8 pm. Wednesday
at the Dispensary Building, Silver
Spring.
THE drill was very unsatisfactory
from the standpoint of several of
the services, but members of the
air raid warden service, the public
works service and portions of the
medical service gave an excellent
performance" Judge Brandt said
yesterday.
Wardens Did Well,
THE wardens' service functioned
very efficiently and is due COM
mendation. The medical cadet corps
of the Seventh Day Adventists
staged an impressive drill at one
point, where 20 persons were sup
posed to have been injured, and
the public works crews arrived
quickly and in proper form in the
incident which I inspected" the di-
rector said.
Several other services, however,
failed to function in an efficient
manner, and these deficiencies are
being studied with view to cor
rection, he stated.
I'VE believe that it is proper that
the public be informed of Short
comings as well as of our praise
worthy efforts, and it is because of
this that I'm calling meeting of
the chiefs of service to discuss the
shortcomings and methods of COR
rection. This was the first county,
wide mobiliza ton drill, and it was
to be expected that some misunder-
standings and deficiencies should
arise, but in my belief the per-
formance was very much worse than
it should have been, even with the
novelty factor" Judge Brault said.
Won't Mince Words.
THE chiefs of service will be told
in detail and with no mincing of
words just where their services fell
down and what will be expected OF
them in the future. I never have
expected perfection, but there are
certain standards which must be
maintained by each service, and I
intend to see that these standards
are observed" Director Brault said.
Chiefs of several services which
had the lowest efficiency in the drill
will meet with Judge Brault today
to discuss specific changes and i'm
provements, and chiefs of several
other services also will attend to
provide better co-opera ton.

Council TO Hear
Cody's Proposal
To Limit Raises
Resolution TO Ask
$4,000 Ceiling on
Increases in Wages

Councilman Frank Cody will
introduce a resolution in council
today limiting the proposed Asa
per cent increase for all city en-
ployes TO those earning less than
$4,000 yearly.
The special salary and wages
committee yesterday refused to
recommend Cody's proposal mas
much as it had already recon-
mended the proposal of City
Treasurer Albert Cobo that a asa
per cent increase be granted all
employees. Both recommendations
call for minimum S136 boost.
A proposal TO equaliZe the wages
of men and women employed as
hospital, building and institutional
attendants was held up by the
committee, which instructed the
civil service commission to create
new classifications, equal iZin &
rates where the work is similar
and setting up different level for
different duties.
The meeting was adjourned
abruptly by chairman George
Edwards as Yale Stewart, repre-
sentative of the city employees
union, protested that wage scales
of automobile mechanics and re-
pairmen in private industry were
not being presented correctly.
The discussion arose as the
result of a request from municipal
garage employees that their wages
be increased TO the level of sal
aries received by fire department
employees doing the same work.
