Alexandra Gets
$38,372G Grant
For Nurseries
Fund Will Help Pay
For 5 Centers, Enable
Setting Up Of Sixth

The Federal Works Agency has
allotted $38,372 to the Alexandria
School Board to help pay the cost of
operating five-day-care nurseries for
$50 pre-school children and to es-
tablish an additional one for 80 chill
dren.
Although the FWA grant was
made public yesterday. no notifica-
ton of the grant has been received
by the Board of Education. T. c.
Williams. superintendent of schools,
said today.
Mr.. Williams said that after noti-
fication the school board will have
to make formal requisition for the
funds which are intended to cover
costs of equipment and repairs and
half the cost of maintenance and
operation of the five-day-care CEN
ters for one year starting July /.
The other half of operational ex-
penses is covered by fees paid by
parents.
Although the new grant allows for
the opening of an additional CEN
ter, Mr.. Williams said that the five
centers now in operation could take
care of only 125 children, and only
115 have been enrolled, so a new
center is not contemplated unless
the need arises.
The first project to be started with
the new grant will be the rehabilita
ton of the Potomac Clinic on Mount
Vernon avenue to which the chill
dren now cared for in the Mount
Vernon School will be transferred.
Mr.. Williams said, however. that
work on the building is dependent
on the availability of labor and
material

Officials Direct
7-Poiri Attack
On Rabies Peril
Owner Responsibility,
Enforcement of
License Law Urged

A seven-point program aimed at
reducing the rising number of cases
of rabid animals, with special en-
phasis on wner-responsibility. was
announced by DR.. George G. Ruh-
land, District health officer, after a
conference of Federal. District and
nearby MARYLAND and Virginia Off
Cials yesterday in the Municipal
Center
The conference brought out that
rabies is definitely on the increase
and is a problem of major i'm
portance in the Metropolitan Area
It reported that 100 rabid animals
we're found in this area last year.
es compared with only occasional
cases in the preceding year.
The conference recommended
that:
Residents of the Metropolitan Area
take greater responsibility for pro-
tecting their dogs by not permitting
them to run at large at any time.
Strict Enforcement Urged.
The license law be strictly en-
forced.
All animals found at large be i'm
pounded and destroyed. whether
tagged or not. unless reclaimed by
the owner within a specified time
All dogs reported to have bitten
persons shall be placed in quaran-
tine for a period of not less than
10 days, either on the premises of
the owner. or at the dog pound,
or In a private veterinary hospital.
Dogs bitten by. or exposed to
rabid animals shall be either de-
stroyed forthwith or placed in strict
quarantine for period of not less
than go days in place approved
by the health officer.
All agencies in the Metropolitan
Area concerned should tighten rabies
control.
Because dogs running at large
chiefly are responsible for spreading
the disease, activities of all pound
services should be increased to ap-
prehend much greater number.
Those attending the conference
were not unanimous in approving
vaccination of dogs as a protective
measure on the ground that it tends
to give false sense of security
against rabies.
Frank Marks, pound master. said
he is killing an average of so stray
dogs day to combat the rabies
menace.
AZ Positive" Tests Reported
James Stone. chief sanitary engi-
neer for Fairfax County. reported
% positive tests among dogs.
Thirty-siX persons. he said. had
been treated. Of whom % were bit
ten. Fourteen had come in close
contact with suspected dogs. Posi-
tive tests also were received in the
cases of three cows, two cats and
two re- bbitS.
We consider it serious" he told
the conference.
William A. Dorsey, labora tory di-
rector of Arlington County, said the
number of cases of rabies in Airing
ton. Alexandria, Fairfax, Loudoun
end Prince William Counties had
doubled as compared with last year.
Inspector Ira E. Keck, who rep
resented the Police Department. said
many persons report they cannot
comply with the muzzle law be-
cause muzzles are impossible to OBJ
tain. He added that police pre-
cincts reported IS cases of dog biting
last week and that II were reported
Sunday. Precinct No. 8. where dogs

her. he said.
