Maryland Man Fined
For Indecent Photos

Kemp Smith, 35. of the 500 block
Of Deerf1eld avenue, Silver Spring
was fined 500 and given a suspend
ed 60-day jail sentence in Silver
Spring Police Court yesterday after
he pleaded guilty to a charge of pos
sessing indecent photographs with
intent to exhibit them. Smith, q
contractor, did not testify.
Mrs. Lila Goldberg, %, of New
York, said Smith had taken several
nude pictures of her at her own re-
quest in the basement of his home
last week. Detective Corpl. James w.
Anderson of the Montgomery
County police force testified he
found approximately so allegedly
indecent photographs at Smiths
home last week.
In requesting Trial Magistrate
Einar Christensen to impose light
sentence, Attorney j. Harry Welch
representing the defendant, said
Smith is married and has two chill
dren.
Mr.. Welch said Smith takes proto-

emphasized that his client never
sold any of the photographs.

graphs OF Mrs. Goldberg were found

Arlington PUG Defers
Bid for Gas Hearinq

Plans to request a hearing before
the Virginia Corporation Commits
sion to obtain information on gas
rates following conversion from
manufactured to natural gas in the
Northern Virginia area were de-
ferred last night by the Arlington
Public Utilities Commission pending
an informal discussion with the
State group.
Ihls course was approved by the
county PUG after company officials
cited the high cost of hearing. A
1882 hearing, it was said, cost the
company $4,000.
Commission members said they
want to know why there is 13-cent
differential between Washington and
Arlington rates.
r. c. Brehaut, Washington Gas
Light Co. official, and william K.
MacMahon, Arlington branch man
ager, conferred with the commission
on various cost aspects of the con-
version. Mr.. Brehaut said the So
500, 900 conversion cost will be abb
sorbed over a 10-year period. Vol
untary rate reductions, he added,
have been made several times to
keep from exceeding a per cent
return, the ceiling set by the State
Corporation Commission.
R. c. l.. Moncure, county PUG
chairman, said a hearing before the
State Corporation Commission would
be without prejudice to the COM
pany. G. T. Garnett, commission
member, said he believes a hearing
will be required if the information
sought cannot be obtained in
formally.

Court Weighs Pleas
In Suit Contesiinq
College Park Limits

The validity of the act incor-
porating College Park, Md, as
town was being studied today by
Chief Justice Ogle Marbury of the
Maryland Court of Appeals, fol-
lowing concluding argument yester-
day in the Prince Georges County
Cirtuit Court at Upper Marlboro =
The suit, contesting the validity
of the incorporation on grounds
that the title of the act was decep-
tive because it failed to include
the names of communities north of
Branchville road, was filed by At
torneys J. Frank Lillard and Frank
M. Hall, who represented residents
of Branchville, Oak Springs. Daniels
Park, Hollywood and Autoville.
The State Legislature authorized
the incorporation in May, 1945. and
residents of the entire area approved
it 955 to TOT in a referendum.
Cites Recent Ruling.
Attorney T. Howard Duckett. who
with Nicholas Orem, jr., represented
the town corporation, pointed out
in his arguments there were mo
physical barriers to the community"
citing a recent ruling of the Court
of Appeals that every presumption
favors the validity of statute and
reasonable doubt in favor is enough
to sustain it,"
Mr. Duckett declared that the
streets in the community were
planned in set pattern, not as in
dividual communities. He said the
area was generally known as Ber-
wyn by common usage.
In rebuttal Mr.. Hall replied that
when the act was originally written
it called for the Berwyn district to
end at Branchville road, but a sub
sequent amendment took In the
northern area as well.
Calls Title Misleading.
Mr.. Hall said the title was mis-
leading and "clear violation of the
constitutional provisions" The title
contained no mention of the north
ern sections, it was contended, but
only the communities of Calvert
Hills, College Park, Lakeland and
the town of Berwyn.
Mayor William A. Duvall. a resi-
dent Of the northern area, said ap-
proximately 81 per cent of the town
residents had paid taxes and if the
corporation was declared invalid
the money would have to be re-
turned. He said much of it has
been spent for road and street
improvements. On the other |
hand, he said. if the law is declared |
valid, taxpayers who have not paid |
them, will face penalties starting |
