Falls Church Mayor Leads Fight
For Curfew Opposed by Clergy

Falls Church residents were d.
vided today on a curfew for children
under IA years of age after $50 or
10 pm.
Leading the proponents in a public
forum sponsored by the Falls Church
Parent-Teacher Association last
night, was Mayor M. H. Haertel.
Arrayed against him was the Falls
Church Ministers Association, whose
spokesman was the Rev. A. B. Alt
father, pastor of Presbyterian
Church.
A packed house demonstrated the
towns interest in the proposed ordi-
nance, but after a session during
which tempers fared, the P-TA
voted to table a motion that would
put the organization on record as
favoring the curfew.
Poll Deemed Advisable.
1t was deemed advisable to poll
the membership on the question be-
fore the next meeting.
The Rev. Altfather went on record
for the ministers as opposing the
ordinance and objecting to the pub
licity the town has received from it.
That brought Mayor Haertel to his
feet in defense of law that would
force all children IA or under of the
streets.
Mayor Haertel noted that police
had observed moral irregularities

Montgomery Welfare
Personnel Needed

Lack of personnel and insufficient
number of foster homes for children
are the principal problems faced
by the Montgomery County We'll
fare Board, according to a report
by Mrs. Dorothy M Kurtz, executive
secretary.
A future problem expected to arise,
she added, was an increasing case
load during the postwar period with
no contingent fund provided by the
State Legislature to handle these
new cases.
Mrs. Kurtz explained that clerical
vacancies in the Welfare Board
had been filled but that five case
workers and junior case workers
still are needed. Case workers, she
said, must have had professional
training in a graduate school or
social work. Junior case workers
must be college graduates with no
previous training or experience re-
quired. She asked interested per-
sons to call Rockville 1927. The
position of case supervisor in the
children's division also is vacant,
she added.
The children's division is having
difficulty finding homes for girls
from II to 16 years of age, Mrs.
Kurtz said, and needs a home imme-
diately for a 3-year-old girl. In
addition, the executive secretary
said, homes are needed for a IA
year-old colored boy and an 8-year-
old white boy. Additional homes
are required for white boys rang
ing in age from IL to IA years. In
December, 1876 children received care
in foster homes, the report stated.
Mrs. Kurtz also reported the
board has been relieved of respon-
sibility for the licensing of homes
for aged persons. AS a result of
legislation enacted last year the
State Health Department now issues
the licenses, she said.

Maryland Council
Weighs Proposal TO
License Therapists
By the Associated Press.


BALTIMORE, Jan. 17.-A pro-
poSal by Philip H. Dorsey, jr., peo-
ple's counsel of the Public Service
Commission, to give his Office added
powers and proposed legislation to
license physical therapists was under
consideration today by the State
Legislative Council.
Physicians and physical therapists
joined forces yesterday to urge in
PRODUCTION of bill restricting the
title physical therapists'' to persons
having adequate training and ex-
perience to qualify them to use phys
ical therapy forms of treatment in
the treatment of human diseases,
injuries, or disabilities, and who re-
strict their practice to cases dag
nosed and referred by practicing
physicians"
The purpose of the bill, pro-
ponents said, was to prevent mis-
leading of the public by unqualified
persons using the title. Beauty par
lors and health clubs, it was ad-
mitted, use the same equipment and
forms of treatment as therapists
working in hospitals and under med
ical supervision.
No attempt was made at belittling
these uses, many of which were con-
sidered beneficial. The bill would
limit licenses, however, to persons
having special training and qualif-
cations.
Mr.. Dorsey's proposals included
legislation to:
l. Authorize the peoples counsel
to initiate proceedings before the
Public Service Commission on rate
and fare cases.
2. Allow him to appeal any order
of the commission and to use records
and experts of the commission.
3. Define the value of a public
utility as money honestly and pru-
IDENTIFY invested there by the utility
less accrued depreciation.
4. Exclude from the value of a
utility for rate-making purposes,
goodwill value, going concern value
or franchise value in excess of pay
ment made therefor
