School Tots To
Be Giue,i Tests.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla, Aug. 8
|FNS).-The Citizens Committee
on Education announced last
week that an intensive study will
be made of the school programs
of nine typical Florida counties.
The counties selected Dade,
Pinellas, Volusia. Highlands,
Manatee, Alachua, Sumter, Cal
houn and Holmeswere chosen
because they represent a cross
section of all counties and parts
of the state.
The committee will test stu-
dents from the fifth to the 18th
grades in the nine counties @in
order to find out what the schools
are accomplishing in terms of
amounts expended and TO analyze
the curriculum and teaching pro-
cedures in detail To determine
handicaps and possibilities for inn
provements. :

THE LOW DOWN
HICKORY GROVE

Next to getting over our COM
pick that we gotta appease labor
and give it more money every
Monday A. M.--our next task is
to 60 over to the school house.
And not just the Junior or high
school, but also the university
which latter needs some squint-
in into, also.
No country is going to amount
to whoop if it brings up its off
shoots under the teaching of some
guy who thinks It is Utopia in
Sweden or the Ukraine, etc, and
that everything is wrong with
our U.S.A. system. 1t don't take
much poison or vaccine to get a
youngster off to the wrong start.
You let his teacher harp on the
idea that the people should own
the mines, and the Water-power,
fall free upon all the land and
that nature put the coal in the
earth, and have him say nothing
about the work and effort and
cost of bringing these things to
the people, and you are preparing
the ground for socialism.
What would you do first, says
Henry. A good question, says.
First off the bat I would call in
the principal, or the president of
the University and quiz him on
why do his teachers recommend
socialism. And if his answer was
dubious, | would get a pinch-hit-
ter to take his place.
Yours with the low down.

Conference Called
On Plan 10 Widen
Wisconsin Avenue

The widening of Wisconsin ave-
nue. and the redirection of traffic at
the intersection of Wisconsin ave-
nue. and East-West highway, which
have been in the discussion stage
for the past six years, will be the
subject of conference in Baltimore
today between a Montgomery
County delegation composed of Will
liam H. Prescott. county commits
sioner; Willard F. Day, county SUI
pervisor; Clarence Keiser, Bethesda
member of the Maryland-N National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission: Capt. James McAuliffe OF
the Bethesda police station ano
members of the State Roads Com
mission.
The conference will seek to work
out plan for these two projects
which will be acceptable to the
county commissioners, the park
commission, the State Roads Com.
mission and the property owners
involved.
A tentative plan, drawn up by the
roads commission in collaboration
with the Engineering Committee oil
the County Safety Council, and sent
to Commissioner Prescott last week
is not acceptable, Mr.. Prescott said
This tentative plan calls for "a
foot roadway from curb line to curl
line, with two 10-foot parking strips
on each side, and two 12-foot lanes
of traffic on each side of a 6-foot
medal strip. Due to the existence
of the Bank of Bethesda and the
buildings north of it, it would be i'm
possible to provide the 74-foot road
way at this point, Mr.. Prescott says
without acquiring more than 20 feet
on the east side of Wisconsin ave-
nue.. -. However. the minimum re-
'quirements of the State Roads Com
mission are two 7-foot parking
strips, and two l1-foot lanes of traf-
flc on each side of a 2-foot medal
strip.
At the intersection of Wisconsin
avenue and East-West highway the
plan calls for an approximate 30
foot cut back from the corner of the
ground now occupied by the Sun Oil
Co., and an approximate 35-foot
cut back on the opposite corner
occupied by the Hot Shoppe.
Across Wisconsin avenue at the
intersection of Edgemoor lane and
Georgetown road the plan calls for
a concrete medal strip which would
close Edgemoor lane to westward
and northward traffic, but would
leave it open to traffic moving east
ward from Georgetown road. This
would necessitate a new entrance to
Edgemoor, possibly through Hamp-
den lane or one of the streets run
ming into Georgetown road. The
plan also calls for decreasing the
width of Edgemoor lane at a point
opposite the Peoples Drug Store.
Mr.. Prescott believes that the
State Roads Commission will be
willing to alter its plans to conform
to the wishes of the people of the
area, but, according to the commits
sloner, the Park Commission has
final decision on what those plans
will be.
