By q stoff Correspondent Of The sior

| ANNAPOLIS, Md, Feb. 6.-The
Prince Georges County delegation
to the General Assembly today was
studying opposing arguments on a
controversial bill to- correct and re-
enact provisions of a 1945 act in
cooperating the College Park area.
| About 200 residents of the af-
fected communities crowded into
the House chamber and overflowed
into the galleries to present their
views at two-hour hearing before
the delegation last night.
The bill has been passed by the
House of Delegates and now is be-
fore the Senate. 1t was introduced
by the delegation in an attempt to
correct defects in the title of the
1945 act, which was declared un-
constitutional last September by
Judge Ogle Marbury in Prince
Georges County Circuit Court.
In 1945 opponents of the bill
which was approved in a refer
endum, claimed it was unconstitu-
tional because the title did not
mention five of the communities
to be included in the incorporated
area. They are Branchville, Auto
vile, Daniels Park, Hollywood and
Oak Springs.
Opinion Is Divided.
Sentiment among those attending
the hearing appeared to be about
equally divided.
Opponents of the present meas
ure centered their criticism on the
lack of provision for another ref
erendum. J. Frank Lillard, attorney
for the group, maintained "the peo-
pile are entitled to vote on the matter
again.
'Let us see whether they are Of
the same mind as they were in 1945,"
he declared. How about Lakeland?
The people there voted against in
corporation two years ago, I'll to 9,
and you offer the bill to them again
without a referendum"
He also expressed doubt of the
present bills conStitutionality, but
refused to state which provisions he
thought were invalid.
In addition to the five communi-
ties, all of which are north of
Branchville road, the proposed in
corporated area would take in Col
lege Park, Calvert Hills, Lakeland
and Berwyn.
Population Called Scattered.
Other speakers claimed the popu-
lation in the area is too scattered
to be incorporated and that many
of the residents settled there because
they wanted a rural atmosphere"
Edward Daniels, Berwyn, charged
the delegation was being dictated
to" by DR.. H. c. Byrd; president of

The Community Association, rep

erendum.
Others opposing the measure in
cluded Milton E. Barrett and Ken
meth Hickernell, Daniels Park; l.. C.

and Mrs. Evelyn Tyner, both colored,
of Lakeland.
Nicholas Orem, jr., representing
proponents, said in 1915 the bill was
fairly passed.. and the referendum
fairly conducted" He added the
referendum was overwhelmingly in
favor Of incorporation and that
there Is no need for a second one.
University Would Pay Tax.
He also pointed out that the Uni
versity Of Maryland would pay ST, 600
a year to the town on the basis of
the proposed 25-cent per 500 tax
provided in the measure.
Others favoring the bill empha-
sized the. area is no longer rural
since it has about 5000 inhabitants
and an assessed valuation of &c.
100000.
Herbert w. Wells, Calvert Hills,
who was elected councilman-a at
large of College Park after the 1945
referendum, said Lakeland residents
voted against incorporation because
they were misguided"
He said the cost to the average
home owner in Lakeland under the
proposed 25-cent town tax would be
only $4.25 a year.
Fred w. Tuemmler, College Park,
director Of planning for the Mary
land National Capital Park and
Planning Commission, said incor-
poration would enable residents of
the area to obtain desired improve
ments more easily and economically
and give therl a voice in local
government.
Others Supporting Bill.
Other supporters of the bill in
cluded William c. Duvalle, Branch
vile, who was elected mayor of
College Park; Walter L. Green, Cal
vert Hills, former county trial magis-
trate; Walter F. Mulligan, Daniels
Park, president of the County Civic
Federation: Mrs. Lester Lathoma.
vice president of the Oak Springs
Citizens Association; Paul w.
Baker, Autoville, and Harper L.
Schimpff, president of the Calvert
Hills Citizens Association.
While indorsing the bill, Samuel
n. Harvey, College Park, former
delegate to the Legislature, urged
that the Is cent tax be increased.
He Joined others, however, in argu-
ing that another referendum was
unnecessary.

The angel of Belsen" has. found
that her American heaven also con-
tains few "angels."
Mrs. Luba Tryszynska Frederick
is learning to smile again and shove
to the back of her memory those
horrible months in the concentra-
ton camps Of Germany. Last night
she made nearly 200 new American
friends who brought her and her
new husband many gifts to furnish
their Washington home.
It all started when The Star car
ried a.feature story on Mrs. Frede-
rich by Newbold Noyes, jr., last
Sunday. The story mentioned the
fact that Mrs. Samuel Berenson
planned a sort of wedding shower
to help the couple get started in
housekeeping here in Washington.
AS soon as the paper was out, the
telephone started ringing at the
Berenson house. The following day
gifts started arriving. The mailman
brought letters of sympathy, letters
containing money, and the tele-
phone rang some more.
- 200 Bring Gifts.
At last nights party, nearly zoe
persons came, nearly all of then
bearing more gifts. 1t Is small won.
Ger that Mrs. Frederick and hel
husband were smiling a great dea'
last night.
"It seems she said, "that I have
been able to regain my dignity agair
here in America
She earned the name "Angel Of
Belsen" when she was imprisoned ir
the Belsen concentration camp, SC
famed and so notorious for its hor-
rors. While there, she managed to
save the lives of nearly 100 children
by her own heroic efforts. She
risked her own life more times than
she cares TO remember.
When the British Army finally
arrived at Belsen, the most amaz-
ing thing they found was group
of 94 underfed children, ranging in
age from two to IL, presided over
by a Polish Jewess named Luba
Tryszynska, who tearfully greeted
her Hberators. She was exhausted,
broken, middle-aged in her 28th
year-but still carrying on with the
grit that angels" are made of.
Only Part of Story.
That is only part of the story of
Luba. Before she arrived at Belsen,
she had seen her own son carried
away and burned in the death fac
tory at Osweicim prison. Her hus-
band had been shot trying to escape
from prison. She had been beaten,
starved, and three times had been
carried. to the very doors of the hu-
man furnace herself.
Then came liberation and a
chance to see her children on the
road to health again. Sixty-four of
the children were Dutch, so Luba
accompanied them back to their
home. It was here that Queen Will
helmina decorated her on behalf Of
The Netherlands, and the Queen
herself called Luba the Angel Of
Belsen."
The appreciation of the Dutch did
not stop there, however, for last
night at her wedding shower" the
new Mrs. Frederick received from
The Netherlands Embassy here sew
eral pieces Of furniture for her new
home. Col. r. Roos, military and air
attache, presented the gifts which
had been purchased by all members
of the staff of the embassy, Also
