BILL OF RIGHTS

0NEIIUNDRED and fifty-six years ago this week the
first 10 amendments to the Constitution of the United
States formally ratified and the people for the
first time guaranteed the protection of the Bill of Rights
is refreshing in these days to remember that popular
sentiment in 1889 overwhelmingly in favor of the
Bill of Rights that the 13 original states would not adopt
the constitution until they had been assured that the
Amendments would be submitted the first order of bus
Throughout the years the Bill of Rights have remained
buwark of American freedom, but should be matter
of great that the Supreme Court in recent
decision has seriously weakened the Fourth Amendment
which orbds federal officers from searching mans home
without proper warrant.
1t is not enough that forebearers vglant to
protect their fundamental liberties and We must fight
to preserve them now, not worthy of them.

During his long life-Cato lived to be 85-he became

DECENT people throughout the country, who believe that
there has been too much gofcaton of gangsters and
racketeers in the movies joining with the decent people
in Hollywood in opposing the scheme to make picture out
of the recent Wetbrook Peger book al Capone 1t is
doubtful however if they will succeed in blocking Pegler
from infctng nauseatng Of gangstersm the pub
lie For Peger has powerful friends who would like
to him cash in His bitter enmty toward the working

District Autos May Garry
Aluminium License Tags

Some of Washington's automobile
tags this year probably will be made
of aluminium, Roland M. Brennan
District purchasing agent said yes
terday. He made the announce
ment after a search through the
eastern seaboard for steel. None
could be bought at reasonable prices
he said. -
If he gets the aluminium, Mr.
Brennan would be carrying out
mandate given him about week
ago by George E. Keneipp, Director
of Vehicles and Traffic, to "get
something"
Director Keneipp has had several
talks with aluminium industry repre-
sentatives in the last several weeks,
with a view of using aluminium alto
gether for future tags. Although
they will cost more, the director
said, they will last longer than the
steel ones now in use and in the
long run would be just as cheap.
Mr.. Keneipp said yesterday that
obsolete tags will be processed at
the Lorton Reformatory and will
take care of the tag demands for
about six weeks.

More Than Doubled in '46
BY The Assoeioted Press

The public's losses from counter
felt money during 1916 more than
doubled those in 1945, the Secret
Service disclosed last night.
It was the first year-to-year in
crease in several years. The 1916
loss was $47.129, sharply up from
s18,135 but still trif1ing compared
with the mid-30's, when counter
feiting took the public for as much
as 81 100000 year.
Secret Service Chief James j.
Maloney, in report to Secretary of
the Treasury Snyder, said the serv-
ice doubled its 1945 arrests for
counterfeiting, taking in IS persons
last year.
Mounting thefts and forgeries OF
Government bonds and Government
checks combined with the furry of
counterfeiting to give the Secret
Service a busy year.

The grounding will have to be
fast on his feet if he wants to dodge
his shadow today. He'll have to
think even faster if he tries to
predict weather for the next "a
hours, let alone the next six weeks,
in Washington.
That was the unofficial Weather
Bureau opinion here last night in
forecasting occasional cloudiness
and enough high wind today to
keep the grounding hopping, or
whatever a woodchuck would do,
when he emerges from his winter
hideout.
The weather man laughed, and
that's all he said, when asked for
aid in writing the annual Ground

ported.

ture will rise here Monday or how

Lest that offer a loophole to the

rome Namias, chief of the extended
forecasts division, that: "Scientif1-
cally, there is no basis whatsoever
for the grounding legend"

Over 10000 Packages
OF Surplus PIasma
Are Distributed Here

. More than 10000 packages of
blood piasma from surplus wal
stocks have been turned over to
local hospitals and private physicians
during the last year, District
Health Department official revealed
yesterday.
The plasma, declared surplus by
the armed forces at the end of the
war, is the Districts share of l,500,-
900 packages being distributed
throughout the country by the Red
Cross, more than half of which has
already been allocated to various
States.
Red Cross officials estimate the
present supply will last until the
middle of 1948. AS long as stocks
hold out, they declare, the plasma
will be made available for civilian
medical use without charge to
physicians, hospitals or patients
although patients may be required
to pay for the administration OF
the blood.
"This marks the first time in the
history of medicine that enough
plasma is readily available for nor
NAL and emergency needs in civilian
medical practice" according to DR..
G. Foard McGinnes, Red Cross vice
chairman for health services.
Local distribution of the plasma
has been effected by the Health De-
partment under the supervision of
Rexford G. Vessels, property and
supply officer.
OF 10,026 units so far allotted the
District, the largest users of plasma
have been Gallinger Hospital, with
1884 packages, and Freedmen's,
1902. Fourteen other medical insti-
tutions and a small number of
private physicians also have bene-
flied, and 1900 units are being held
in reserve.
No institution, Mr.. Vessels said,
is authorized to draw more than six
months supply, and all must agree
to store the plasma properly and use
it economically.

City Heads Pick
3Nembers for
SIunl Agency
Approval By Senate
Will Clear Way for
Providing Funds

Early appointment of three MEM
bers to the Redeyelopment Land
Agency is expected to push the Dis
trict's $20,000,000, 1o-year slum
clearance program step nearer
reality.
The Commissioners announced
yesterday that three Washington
residents have been chosen to serve
on the agency and their appoint-
mentS will go before the Senate for
approval within the next 10 days.
They did not reveal the names.
Membership of the agency, created
by Congress last summer to admin
lister the cleanup of "blighted" areas,
will be rounded out by appointment
of two additional members who will
be chosen by the President.
Naming of the full agency will
allow Congress to proceed with the
appropriation necessary to the pro-
gram. The act authorizing 1t pro-
vided no money.
Appropriation Earmarked.
The $2O,000,000 to be appropri-
ated will be used by the agency to
buy land in slum areas. The land
could then be cleared and resold
either to private or public con-
struction agencies such as the Ma.
tional Capital Housing Authority.
Since the creating act limits oc-
cupancy of any dwellings erected
by a public agency under the
program to the lowest one-fifth in
the Districts income groups, the
Commissioners are expected to ask
Congress for additional money to
pay the Census Bureau for a sur
vey to determine which families
fall within that category,
The National Capital Park and
Planning Commission has an
nounced it will ask Congress for
about $4,000 to hire added per-
sonnel to draft master slum clear
ance plan.
The commission cited the Barry
Farms area-a largely undeveloped
tract north of st. Elizabeth's Hos
pital-and the northwest central
region of the District as needing
the slum clearance agency's early
attention.
Public Hearing Probable.
If the commission submits plans
for Barry Farms to the Commis-
sioners, a public hearing will follow
before the plans are turned over to
the land agency. The. agency could
then ask private and public con-
struction contractors for bids on
the basis of the plan.
The theory behind the agency Is
that such a process would continue
until the District was rid of slums.
The $20,o00O00 Federal advance to
finance land purchase is supposed to
be paid back without interest out of
the income the slum agency would
receive from rentals on the various
projects.
The bill prohibits removal Of FAM
lilies from any slum area until new
homes are provided.
The three members to be named
to the agency by the Commissioners
were selected from lists supplied by
IL local civic and business groups. It
was recommended that no one be
chosen who might profit from the
position.
The District appointees must have
been residents for five years, with
business or professional experience.
One may be city official. One Of
the two Presidential appointees also
may be a Federal official.
