vaccine is being given By the COM
bined efforts of the Health De-

all schools not previously reached
this year. Hereafter, these innoc-
ulations will be given in the
schools each spring. All children
who have had typhoid incubation
six months or more ago are be-
ing reimmunized at this time to
get them in the general group.
Thus, the whole school enrolment
will be ready for reimmunization
at the same time in the spring
when it will be done in the
schools. All parents are urged
not to take their children to the
Health Department for inocula-
tions during the time they are
being done in the schools.
Plans are being made for pre-
school clinics to be held in the
various elementary schools by the
health department and school
nurse under the sponsorship of
tibet Parent Teacher Associations.
1t is hoped that all parents of
children who will be entering
school for the first time next year
will bring them to the clinic for
physical check-up and helpful adj
vice. More information will be
made available as to definite
schools and dates later. All in

Youth in Trouble Broadcast
Puts Major Blame on Parents
Police Departments
Juvenile Bureau
Head Is Speaker

An accusing finger last night was
leveled at parents as a major cause
for juvenile delinquency in the Sec
ond of the broadcast series, Youth
lin Trouble" sponsored. by The Star
and Station WMAL, with the CO.
operation of the Metropolitan Po-
lice Department and the Boys Club
The program was entitled THE
Good Provider,' and 1t. William T
Murphy, head of the Juvenile Blu
reau, made 1t clear that RESPONSE
bility for the misbehavior of chill
drsn often rests. primarily with the
parent.
Although there is no sole cause
for the present problem" said 1t.
Murphy in his interview with Bill
Coyle, The Star radio director, "the
parent-whether because of over
indulgence or indifference-may &C
cept much of the blame when his
child does wrong"
The dramatization in last nights
broadcast portrayed a typical in
stance in Juvenile Bureau rec
ords where parents overgenerosity
helped lead a teen-ager into crime.
1t. Murphy said that while
youths seldom blame their parents
for their own misdeeds, he has
found parents often accuse their
children without indicting them
selves. He then submitted a basic
program for parents: To know at
all times where their children are,
with whom they associate, where
they are going and what they are
doing.
This may sound like a large Or
der" the Juvenile Bureau head con-
fessed, but we must consider that
all our hopes and expectations are
bound up in our children. When
ever our youngsters get into trouble
by committing an offense against
the moral and legal codes, the Amer
lean adult should regard it as a per-
sonal loss, a delay in the fulfillment
Of the better world to come"
During the interview, 1t. Murphy
expressed his personal dislike for the
term Juvenile delinquent" He said

Brownout in Virginia
Eased With WARNING
Of Coal Strike Danger
BY the Assoeioted Press

RlC1MOND, Va, May 16.-The
use of electric power in Virginia
with the exception of display and
nonessential decorative lighting
was back to normal today, but ra-
tioning will be resumed If the coal
strike is not settled.
Lifting of the restrictions, which
had been in effect since last Thurs
day midnight, was announced at /
pm. yesterday after a conference
between members of the State Cor
poration Commission and the Vir-
ginia Electric & Power Co., which
serves So of the 60 counties of Vir-
ginia in which electric current had
been placed on 2 limited conspmp-
ton basis. = -
The only measure continued in
force was prohibition against use
Of power for decorative, sign and
window lighting, but the commits
sion warned that it was not offering
any forecast as to the future and if
the coal contract negotiations failed
to bring definite end to the strike,
strict rationing viii have to be re-
sumed Immediately"
Utilities Get Priority.
Removal of the bulk of the ra-
tioning limitations was ordered after
Chairman L. Mccarthy Downs had
obtained assurances from the Solid
Fuels Administration in Washing
ton that utility companies would get
top priority on coal being mined
during the present two-week truce
and that a large shipment on fuel
Tor Vepco already was in transit.
A population of approximately l.
100000 and thousands of industries
and business establishments were
affected by the curbs that limited
nonessential operations to "a hours
OF current week, or, under a modi-
f1cation of last Monday, to not more
than SO per cent of normal con-
sumption.
In announcing its decision, the
commission emphasized that it
hoped all consumers would continue
to exercise the utmost care In their
use of Electricity" until the posi-
bility OF further interruption of fuel
supplies is eliminated.
Banks Back to Normal.
The Richmond Clearing House
Association announced that local
banks would return to their normal
hours today. Elevator service in
many Office buildings was restored to
regular schedules yesterday, and a
number of industries announced
plans to resume regulsz. operations.
During the miners two-week truce
period, Vepco expects to receive
considerable addition to its depleted
coal supply, and If coal production
continues uninterrupted all power
restrictions in the Virginia territory
will be lifted. Resumption of the
strike undoubtedly would bring even
more drastic curtailments than
those instituted last week.
In addition to Vepco territory,
rationed areas included those served
by Braddock Light & Power Co.,
Virginia East Coast Utilities and
nine rural electric co-operatives.

Lane Says Tydinqs
Urged Him 10 Run,
Then Supported Tawes
By the Assoeioted Press

BALTIMORE, May 16.-W. Pres
ton Lane, jr., of Hagerstown, said
last night that Senator Tydings,
Democrat, of Maryland urged him
to become a candidate for the
Democratic gubernatorial nomina-
ton, helped him write his an
nouncement of candidacy and then
deserted" him.
Mr.. Lane issued a statement re-
plying to assertions made earlier
this week by Senator Tydings in a
campaign speech for Controller j.
Willard Tawes. Senator Tydings has
announced his support of Mr.. Tawes,
one of the three major candidates
for the Democratic gubernatorial
nomination.
Mr.. Lane characterized as crea-
ton of false issue a statement by
Senator Tydings that he (Mr. Lance
had criticized Mr.. Tawes for seeking
the support of Attorney General
William Curran or criticizing Mr..
Curran for supporting Mr.. Tawes.
Mr.. Lane said he had done neither.
Tells of Conference.
Senator Tydings," Mr.. Lane said
in his statement, personally urged
me to become candidate, and ad-
vised me to make the announcement
of my candidacy when I did.
Another fact is that, at Senator
Tydings' request, I went to Wash
ington and conferred with him
about the details Of my announce
ment, including the wording of my
statement. Senator Tydings per-
sonally assisted me in the prepara-
ton of that statement and in the
public launching of my candidacy.
All this happened, I assume, be-
fore Senator Tydings made his al
lance with Mr.. Curran IN favor Of
Mr.. Tawes. Having done that. with
his own future political interest IN
mind, Senator Tydings then pro-
ceeded to desert me and to at
tempt to destroy my campaign, be-
gun on his advice and with his
assistance. -
O'Conor Urges Work for U. N.
1T seems to me to be similar to

Meanwhile, Gov. O'Conor, who is
seeking the Democratic nomination
for the Senate seat held by Senator
Radcliffe, made a plea yesterday for
strong American leadership for sue
cessful application of the United
Nations Charter.
In review of local problems, Mr..
OConor declared the State must
modernize its institutions and high
ways and solve the new problems
of education and public financing
brought on by the war. Among
Federal problems of paramount con-
Germ, he listed improved labor
management relations and balanc-
ing of the budget.
