RUDENS NUOTAIKOS

Matau rudens karalija,
Pageltusio lapo ataka,

Pageltusis vaizdas-ariena

Man mint Wis persa ikyria:
"Atminki Lietuviska miska,
10 rysku geltonspalvi veida,
Geltonkases sesers obeliska,

Ir vienisa darosi zmogui,

Ir norisi saukti pasauliui

Kai mano namuos plesikauja?
Argi JUS ir tikit kreivu ju zodziu,

O rudenio lapas Wis malas,

Sections Of Arlington
Without Electricity for
Hour as Cable Breaks

A large part of Arlington County
was without electric power for al
most an hour early today because
of break in cable line.
Sections affected were the lower
Columbia pike area, the Court
House area, Clarendon, Ballston
Cherrydale and the country club
area. The power was off from las
to 2:36 am.
A spokesman for the Virginia
Electric g. Power Co. said the failure
was in cable which furnishes
power Vepco purchases from the
Braddock Light & Power Co., a sub
sidiary of the Potomac Electric
Power Co.
The Arlington Hospital switched
to auxiliary power but the court
house, which houses the police de-
partment, was in darkness for 81
minutes. The lack of power cut off
the police radio and a scout car was
stationed outside police headquar-
ters so that calls received by tele-
phone could be relayed to patrolling
cruisers.
Power company spokesmen said it
will take three or four days to re-
pair the break. VEPCO, meanwhile,
has cut down the amount of cur
rent it receives from Braddock and
is obtaining the difference needed
from its own facilities at Alexandria.
The Rosslyn area of Arlington,
which is served directly by the
Braddock company, via its George
town plant, was not affected.

Kemp Sees Sufficient Funds
For County Teacher Raise

School Supt. Fletcher Kemp of
Arlington County said today there
are Sufficient" funds with which
to give teachers a Substantial" pay
raise for the remainder of the fiscal
year.
Mr.. Kemp was emphatic in his
denial of reports that the raise was
stalled" The amount of the in
crease authorized December II by
the School Board Is still unde-
termined, Mr.. Kemp said.
He reiterated an earlier announce
ment, however. which stated that
the amount would be determined by
January 20, the date work on the
January payroll begins.
The increase for the county's $50
teachers will be paid from the ap-
proximately s250,000 currently in
the School Boards surplus, Mr..
Kemp said 1t is expected that the
School Board will defer action until
the Virginia Legislature decides
what the State will do regarding its
portion of teachers salaries.
II the Legislature does not act be-
fore January 20 the School Board
will set the amount of the raise, Mr..
Kemp said.

Members of the Alexandria City
Council today announced they are
in favor of restoring $108, 500 slashed
earlier this week from the 1947

rary expediency," Mayor William r.

program would be established, Is
favored as the most urgent need.
Returning $4,000 to the Police De-
partment, by which an additional 10
men could be employed, and SIS 900
for the sanitation division of the
Engineering Department were ap-
proved as second choices, the Mayor
said.

When is a street intersection four
intersections?
When it's Ward Circle.
Some motorists have wondered
who has the right of way at such
a circle, which is not controlled by
stop signs or signal lights. Others
have decided for themselves it be-
longs to the aggressive and have
acted accordingly.
One of the perplexed is Capt.
Robert M. Hinchley, U. S. N, who
lives at 1855 Garfield street NV.
and has circle troubles almost daily.
"A rugged individualist always
takes charge and blasts his way
through" Capt. Hinchley complained
in a letter to The Star. "Other
drivers, with a modest and retiring
disposition, like myself, usually do
the Alfonso and CASTOR situation
and are afraid to move, not know
ing what the other guy has in mind.
Experts Not Too Clear.
Capt. Hinchley is warned this
story will contribute little toward
clarification.
Experts of the Department of
Vehicles and Traffic admitted the
right of way situation at such an
uncontrolled circle is clouded. There
are regulations governing rights OF
converging vehicles at an intersec-
ton, but where the intersection be-
gins at a circle is matter OF inter-
probation, they explained.
This is what the regulations say
about uncontrolled intersections:
"The driver of vehicle approach
ing an intersection shall yield the
right of way to a vehicle which has
entered the intersection. When two
vehicles enter an intersection at
the same time, the driver of the
vehicle on the left shall yield to the
driver on the right" ,
The rules present complications
when applied to Ward Circle. Con-

Mexico. &
Mrs. Lusk was elected to the place
formerly held by Secretary of Agri-
culture Anderson and which has
been vacant since Mr.. Anderson
entered the cabinet on June 80,
1945. Mrs. st. George defeated for
mer Representative Augustus w.
Bennett in the recent election.
The women differ not only in their
political parties but in their back
grounds. Mrs. st. George has been
identified with the Republican Or
ganization in Tuxedo Park, her home
town, for many years. She served
for Is years on the Town Board,
and was vice chairman and later
chairman of the Republican Com
mittee in Orange County.
Related to Roosevelts.
Her interests are wide, varying
from foreign affairs to agriculture
and labor. Agriculture and particu-
larly dairying, she explained, are
important industries in her district,
and "I am in the coal business, so I
am interested in labor" she said.
Mrs. st. George, a distant cousin
of the late President Franklin D.
Roosevelt, has been interested in
foreign affairs since teen-agess days

later returned to France to attend

Mrs. Lusk, who got into politics
because of her interest in education,

Santa Rosa, she won an election as
Superintendent of Eddy County
Board of Public Instruction and
later was elected State Superinten-
dent of Public Instruction.
The State law limits the superin-
tendent to two terms, she said, so
when her terms were over she
turned to the broader legislative
field offered by Congress to continue
her efforts to improve educational
opportunities.
