Check All Complaints.
"We have a policy here of check

whether they are valid" Mr.. Kaye
declared. IF we think the apart

it. We take care of all complaints
as soon as we can. After all, under

should be painted only once every

more liberal"

Maryland 10 Disband
Council Of Defense
|0n November |
BY the Associated Press,


ANNAPOLIS, Md, Oct. 3o.-After
more than five years of operation
the Maryland Council of Defense
will close November /, Gov. O'Conor
announced yesterday.
Maryland was the first State to
establish a defense council, the Free
State group preceding the Federal
Office of Civilian Defense by some
months.
The State Council quickly proved
its worth, Mr.. O'Conor stated, when
rationing became necessary. The
setup for rationing, accomplished
under the council, was praised by
Leon Henderson, director of the
Office of Price Administration.
The council was organized by Gov
O'Conor August l., 1910. On March
10, 1941, the State Legislature es-
tablished the Maryland Council OF
Defense. At the 1943 General AS
sembly a revised civilian defense
bill was enacted, retaining the orig
inal council but empowering the
Governor to appoint an executive
committee of seven members from
the group.
Under the general heading of pre-
cautionary, measures, the council, in
cooperation with the Army, laid
the foundation for and perfected
the aircraft warning service in the
State. 1t also assisted in recruiting
Of volunteers for the filter center al
! Baltimore.

Collins 10 Share Cost
OF Contest That Gave
Him Place on Ballot
BY the Associated Press.

RICHMOND, Va, Oct. SOL.
Preston Collins, Democratic nominee
for Lieutenant Governor, yesterday
informed Clerk Wilbur J. Grigg of
Richmond Circuit Court, that he
would bear his share Of the costs
of the contest in which he won the
nomination over Charles r. Fen
wick, Arlington.
The law provides that the costs
OF contest action be assessed
against the loser, but Mr. Collins
said he did not wish this to occur
since I feel that Mr.. Fenwick was
not responsible for the condition
which induced the contest ."
Mr.. Collins contested on the basis
of the Wise County vote, which he
alleged was fraudulent This con-
tention was upheld by Judge Julien
Gum after lengthy hearings. The
Wise County results were thrown
out, and Mr.. Collins was declared
the nominee instead of Mr.. Fen
wick.
The stand of Mr.. Collins was re-
vealed in an answer to a letter
from Mr.. Griggs who informed Mr..
Collins he was preparing to make
a statement of costs and asked for
items of cost Mr.. Collins had in
Cured.
Mr.. Griggs said he could not esti-
mate what costs will be involved.
The amount, however, will be con-
siderable, as all dispositions taken
in the case on behalf of Mr.. Collins
would have been taxable as a part
of the costs Mr.. Fenwick would have
been called on to bear, he added.
The costs OF the contest, aside
from the court costs, also was con-
siderable on both sides because q
number of attorneys were employed
and much travel was involved.

OPAtoPropose Rent Cuts at SuitIond Manor
Because Property Has 'Deterioroted in Value
Lack of Maintenance
Blamed by Landlords
On Labor Shortage
By J. B. ZATMAN.

A proposal for a substantial re-
duction in rentals at Suitland Manor,
an apartment development in Prince
Georges County, will be issued
within the next few days, James w.
Woogerd, area rent director for the
OPA in nearby Maryland, said today.
Mr.. Woogerd said the action is the
result of complaints by tenants con-
cerning lack of essential services.
The action, believed the first of its
kind in the Washington area, will
affect a total of $50 one-bedroom
apartments which now rent for
$49.50 and $50 month.
OF the $50 units 400 are owned
by Suitland Manor, Inc, Of which
Leo Minskoff is president. The re-
manning $50 apartments are owned
lby individual landlords who pur-
chased them from Suitland Manor,
Inc, during the last two years.
Frederick w. Berens, Inc, 1928 K
street NV, Is the rental agent for
these apartments.
Under OPA regulations the land
lords have seven days after receiving
the proposals" for rent reductions
to appeal to the Area Rent Control
Board in Silver Spring. The final
order may be issued at any time
after that date.
Says Property Has Deteriorated.
Mr.. Woogerd said his decision to
reduce rents in the project came
after he made personal investi-
cation Of conditions there. He added
that his survey showed the property
had "depreciated and deteriorated"
to such a nextent that the rental
values of the various apartments
had been reduced. He refused to
reveal the extent Of his rental re-
ductions pending their receipt by the
landlords.
Complaints by tenants, according
to Mr.. Woogerd, included insufficient
heat and hot water, irregular gar
bage collection, lack Of janitor serv-
ice and failure of the management
TO replace plaster cracks in the
departments and to maintain the
project.
An inspection OF several of the
apartments by a Star reporter re-
vealed large plaster cracks in all the
rooms, leaking radiators, unswept
Railways, broken windowpanes and
a general run down" appearance.
Approximately 95 per cent of the
tenants in the development are
service families.
In the apartment of Mrs. B. B.
Wall, 4742 Homer avenue, who said
she moved there three years ago
shortly after the project was COM
pleted, there was a crack about one
Eighth of an inch wide completely
across the ceiling Of the living room.
Mrs. Wall, whose husband, Sea-
man 1ic John Wall, is aboard the
carrier Saratoga, said her apartment
is one of those for which the Berens
firm is rental agent. She said she
had repeatedly asked the firm to
repair the crack and to repaint the
apartment, but nothing had been
done.
Mrs. Wall also complained of the

Project Meeting
BY the Associated Press.

oS VAC hooOSidbCu EEceSs
BALTIMORE, Oct. 30.-A meeting
OF architects, school superintendent
and State department of education
officials to consider aspects of Mary
lands $35, 100000 school building
program will be held here November
16 and II.
Th1s was announced yesterday by
DR.. Thomas G. Pullen, State su-
perintendent of schools, who said
the Baltimore Institute of Archi-
tects, the Maryland Society Of
Architects and representatives of the
National Association of Architects
would collaborate with the educa-
ton department at the projected
gathering
One of the principal speakers
will be Leslie Cheek, associate ed
itor of New York's Architectural
Forum and former director of Bal
timore's Museum of Art, DR.. Pullen
said. Mr.. Cheeks topic will be How
the Community Is Reflected in Its
School Buildings"
DIR. Hamon to Speak.
DR.. Ray Hamon of the Office Of
Education also is scheduled to ad-
dress the group on How to Plan
School Buildings"
DR.. Pullen said it was too early
to cite exact figures to be spent by
counties in their building programs
but added that between $4,000, 900
and $25 900 900 would be required to
catch up with the new expansions.
Most of the States construction
will be in the junior and senior high
school class, DR.. Pullen declared,
and the entire program will take
about five years to complete.
The building programs in the
counties are under the authority of
local superintendents and the con-
ference has been designed to give
them, and the architects who are
to undertake the building, 'the best
thinking" on modern school con-
struction, DR.. Pullen explained.
Assembly Authorizes $4,000, 900.
The 1945 General Assembly au-
thorized some s8,0Oo,000 expendi-
lures for school buildings in several
counties, but estimates of financial
needs and blueprinting are not COM
plete in others.
The great necessity for swift
building, the State superintendent
said, arises from increased school
enrolment, the 12-year school pro-
gram, population increase and the
virtual absence of new building dur
ing the war years.
Meanwhile, the department of
education announced an increase of
IL per cent in the enrolment of
Maryland's white schools over 1914,
and Al per cent increase in COL
ored enrolment
/ The total increase in white
schools was 1,737, the department
said, and there were 1880 more COL
ored pupils than in 1914.
Heaviest increases in white enroll
ment were registered in the follow
ing counties:
Montgomery, 1872; Prince Georges,
472; st. Marys, 1l9, and Worcester,
