KENTUCKY LEGISLATOR ;.
(EN5URES COLLEGE PRESIDENT
ON SCHOOL Law issue

VN ylnUUL Law DyUc
LEXING GTON, KY, Oct. II
(ANP) Charles w. Anderson Jr.,
state representative insa speech be-
fore the Lexington YWCA forum,
vigorously attacked President r.
B. Atwood, Kentucky State college,
Frankfort, for his alleged criticism
of a bill which the Kentucky legis-
lator introduced in the state house
in the recent session which advO-
Gated amending Kentucky's separ-
ate school law.
Atwood allegedly said that it was
a "mistake and waste of time for
Anderson to have introduced bill
in the legislature to abolish Ken
tucky's separate school law for the
purpose of admitting Negro stu
dents to the University of Ken
lucky, that it would have been more
profitable to have developed the
Negro school at Frankfort"
Anderson told his listeners that
when a college president thinks in
such terms then his thinking is
warped and his usefulness as an ed
ucational leader is questionable.
The legislators bill during the
IA session of the Kentucky legisla-
ture recommended that the state
amend Kentucky's separate school
law in order to admit Negro stu
dents to graduate and professional
courses of study at the University
of Kentucky. The bill passed the
lower house of the legislature by a
vote of 41-40, but was killed by the
rules committee of the state senate,
Just before the legislature ad-
journed.
The national office of the
NAACP, the National Negro Bar
association, several leading Negro
journals and civic organizations, in
cluding the Kentucky Educational
association, supported Anderson in
his legislative fight and hailed the
measure as progressive and for.
ward piece Of legislation.
Anderson recently charged that q
small group of leaders nd faought
to influence members Of the senate
against the bill last March. He in
ferred that Atwood's thinking was
in line with other forces which
sought to deny Negro boys and girls
of Kentucky equal eductiaonl ad
vancement and opportunities"

9O-Day Delay in Hearing
On bergdoII Tract Asked

A 90-day postponement of a hear
ing on petition for rezoning of the
Bergdoll tract in Bethesda, sched-
uled to be held Monday before the
Montgomery County Commissioners,
sitting as district council, was re-
quested yesterday by James w. Gill,
attorney for the applicant.
In a letter addressed to Lacy
Shaw, president of the Board of
County Commissioners, Mr.. Gill said
the postponement was asked in view
of the recent action taken by the
Maryland National Capital Park
and Planning Commission on the
Bergdoll application for rezoning
The commission at it's meeting We'd
nesday recommended that requests
to rezone the tract be denied if
members of the council are unwilling
to defer action on the rezoning pc
tition until after a master land use
plan for the county has been
adopted.
Commissioner Shaw said today he
has advised Commissioner William
H. Prescott of Bethesda of Mr.. Gills
request. Both he and Mr.. Prescott,
he announced, will vote for the post
ponement when the hearing is re-
opened at the Bethesda County
Building Monday.

serious gaps in the economic. social

ference of the Association of Social

said.
She continued by stating that
American cities need the formation

Negro could grow into his rights

Court Kills Suit
Against 7 Judges
$1,000 Action Over
Arrest Is Dismissed

A $4,000 damage suit against Trial
Magistrates Walter L. Green and
Alan Bowie Of Prince Georges
County, Maryland State Policeman
B. E. Testerman and Justice of the
Peace Judson R. Creecy, Suitland
has been dismissed with reference
to the first three defendants in
Federal District Court in Baltimore
1t was learned today. The suit was
filed last month in the Baltimore
court by Nick Tumela of Wash
ington.
Federal Judge William c. Coleman
had been petitioned by Judge Green
to dismiss the entire suit on grounds
that the complaint did not set out
any claim for which the defendants
could be held"
In his suit, Mr.. Tumela asserted
that he was arrested February 90
1943, by Trooper FISHERMAN, who
swore out warrant against him
before Justice of the Peace Creecy
Although the suit did not state
what charges had been placed
against Mr.. Tumela, Judge Bowie
said that according to his "recollec-
tion," Mr.. Tumela had been charged
with permitting an unlicensed driver
to operate his car.
After the justice of the peace had
set bond at S100 and Mr.. Tumela
had arranged to obtain it, the former
refused to accept the bond, Mr.
Tumela stated in his suit.
When arraigned March l before
Judge Green, Mr.. Tumela said he
asked that the trial be postponed to
enable him to obtain witnesses. The
nearing was postponed until March
9, the plaintiff added in his suit
when he was tried before Judge
Bowie and acquitted. Justice of the
Peace Creecy could not be reached
for comment.

Alexandra Agrees
To Pay 50 Pct. Of
Health Center Cost
City Council Yields to
FWA Plan; Approves Old
Romsey House Purchase

AleXandria'S prospects of getting
a health center building appeared
brighter last night when the City
Council authorized City Manager
Carl Budwesky to tell Federal Works
Agency officials that the city will
pay so per cent of the cost of the
project.
Negotiations have been under
way for several months because
FWA was unwilling to approve a
building of the size and cost re-
quested by the city. When the first
application was made, the city had
agreed to pay only 40 per cent of the
cost.
The fifth set of plans were pre-
sented to FWA last week, providing
for much smaller building. At
that time Mr.. Budwesky said he
was given to understand that they
would be approved If the city would
provide the site and pay so per
cent of the cost.
The site has not been definitely
chosen since the original location,
on North st. Asaph street, adjacent
to the Red Gross Eastern area head
quarters. is thought to be too large
for the smaller building now
planned.
The Council also apropved the
purchase of Ramsay House for
$500 and passed the first reading
of the appropriation for the pur-
chase price.
Mr.. Budwesky said the city will
retain title to the house, even if it
Is restored with funds raised by
private organizations and individ-
uals.
Roger Sullivan, city treasurer who
heads the committee of citizens who
urged the city to purchase the land
mark, said his committee has al
ready received $1,1o0 toward the
cost of restoring the house, which
was built in 1748.
A committee of councilmen was
appointed to confer with John
Kitchener, the owner of a tract of
land which the city is seeking to
purchase for use as a dump, and
eventual conversion into a recrea-
ton site when the land has been
filled in.
The tract is on the north side of
Payne street, abutting Hunting
Greek, and the city previously agreed
to pay $1,000 for it. The committee
is composed of Mayor william T.
Wilkins, Mr.. Budwesky and Coun-
cilmen John Matter, Eugene Simp-
son and Everett Hellmuth.

Lovejoy Urges 0PA
To Base Gas Ration
On Il Miles a Gallon
Would Set Up New
Rate for Benefit
Of Car Shurers

Hitting at the Office of Price Ad-
ministration's "unrealistic measure
OF granting rations on the basis of a
gasoline consumption rate of Is
miles to the gallon, F.. w. Lovejoy
executive secretary of the local Re
gional Committee of Defense Trans
portation Administrators, today
recommended to Price Administrator
Chester BoWles that motorists par
ticipating in the citys Forthcoming
car-sharing program be allowed ra-
tions based on II miles to the gall
Ion.
Mr.. Lovejoy warned that car
sharers may resort to the black mar
ket, "the kind of black market that
might seem almost legitimate be-
cause we invite the car sharer to
supplement local wartime transpor-
tation facilities, then do not supply
him with enough fuel to complete
his job of car sharing for U.S."
Considered Technical Phases.
The regional committee has in
vestigated the technical phases of
the problem, Mr. Lovejoy wrote, and
Is convinced that the most Satisfac-
tory solution would be the adoption
of the standard he recommended.
1T seems to us that recognition
must be given to the basic fact that
the owner sharing his private pas
senger car is making voluntary con-
tribution to our transportation facil-
titles and therefore should receive
every aid toward rendering his con-
tribution most effective in a rational
way" he asserted.
District OPA officials mapping
plans for the drive, which officially
opens May 20, have announced a
tightening up ON issuance of supple
mental rations, including demand
for conclusive proof that a motorist
Is unable to sign up at least three
riders In a car pool. Rations to be
issued after May 20 will be based on
a strict home-to- office mileage, with
little or no leeway allowed for going
off the route.
Car Sharing Backed.
t1i' AoseJoy polIlteu OUT CnaU the
regional committee was vigorously"
behind the car-sharing drive.
Let us be realistic, too, about the
mechanical condition of our pas
senger car equipment, much of it
over-age, all of it constantly depre-
clating," Mr.. Lovejoy wrote Mr..
Bowles. There is no chance of
maintaining this equipment at peak
performance because of the man
power shortage. Even minor re-
pairs often immobilize a car for
several days.
Quite naturally, the owner is in
clined to keep his car out of the
shop and on the road, doing his car
sharing job if he has one and dis

Government 10 Build
Arches Under BRIDGE
In Boundary Channel
Spon Found Buekline
And Cracked in Center
Due for Repair Soon

Gradually but steadily buckling,
and already cracked across its CEN

Channel at the southern end OF
Columbia Island will undergo an

The crack in the bridge, which
Straddles Mount Vernon boulevard
and spans the entrance to the. la

to be noticeable, but the National
Park Service said 1t Is still safe
for ordinary traffic.
Cost Set at $4,000.
The park service, which will foot
the estimated repair bill Of $4,000,
said the bridges condition was noted
several years ago, but that repairs
could not be made then without in
terrupting the flow of water-borne
material for the Pentagon Build
ing. A minute daily check is MAIN
tanned to assure continued safety
for traffic.
Funds for the job, which will con-
sist of sinking two horizontal steel
struts between the bridge abutments,
have been diverted from the park
services parkway construction fund.
The latter work was halted by the
wars demand for materials. Plans
for the work have been approved
by both the Army engineers and
War Production Board. 1t will be
an underwater job.
In its present condition the
bridges abutments are gradually

The repair work will affect the
