Mother Seeks.to Regain Children
Removed Because of SquuIor

She can and wants to in her own
way of life" Mrs. Ogburn declared.
I'VE feel she does care for her chill
dren, and it's better to keep family
intact than to separate them"
Mrs. Ogburn said Mrs. Palmer
has been receiving aid from the
County Welfare Department since
last January, ranging up to s17S
monthly. The allowance was re-
duced to $96 in August when Mrs
Palmer's husband agreed to con-
tribute $40 month. Mr.. Palmer,
Mrs. Ogburn said, is separated from
his family and has gone to West
Virginia to work.
Mr.. Bright, who at first recon-
mended that Mrs. Palmer be placed
in the reformatory in an attempt
to teach her how to keep clean,"
agreed to assist her in finding en-
ployment Such. he added. will
be difficult because she can neither
read nor write"
AS result of yesterdays order
four of the children who attended
county schools will have to enroll
elsewhere-in the neighborhood of
their new foster homes.
IT'S difficult to make the children
understand what is happening"
Mrs. Ogburn pleaded.

A 33-year- Beltsville mother Of
nine children, whose home Prince
Georges County police, health and
welfare officials said reminded them
of conditions in Tobacco Road" to-
day began struggle to regain their
custody.
Mrs. Vera Palmer, the mother,
yesterday was sentenced in Hyatts-
vile Police Court to serve a year in
the Maryland Reformatory for
Women. Her children, all except
,17-year-old daughter who is mar
ried, were ordered placed in foster
homes under supervision of the
County Health Department.
The sentence, however, was
ordered suspended by Trial Magis-
trate Arthur P. Owens on condition
that Cd she be placed under guild
ance of Maryland State Probation
Officer Roy Bright. and % that
she prove she. is capable of raising
such family.
Mrs Palmer was directed to find
work and to show that she can
maintain a home of her own. She
also was ordered to reappear be-
fore the same court in six months
for another decision by Judge
Owens. If she meets the require
ments, the judge asserted, she may
regain her children, whose ages
range from 9 months to IA years.
She was found guilty yesterday on
a charge of neglecting to support
and maintain eight minor children
after county witnesses testified that
! her home. a former two-room coun-
try schoolhouse. was one of squalor.
Before Judge Owens passed sem
tence, she begged that she be per-
mitted to keep her children. Il
want to do all that I cam he told
the court, in asserting she would
cooperate in any manner specified.
The nonsupport charge was based
on complaints of Miss Agnes Duvall.
county welfare worker. and members
of the county police force who ar
rested Mrs. Palmer on a drunk and
disorderly count on October 8.
At the time, it was testified, police
/ learned her children were left home
alone in house with almost no fur
niture and no plumbing facilities.
Miss Duvall testified yesterday that
some of the children were suffering
from impetigo when they we're dis
covered in their home October g.
Four of them, including the infant,
required treatment at Leland Memo
rial Hospital, Riverdale, she said.
Two members of the County We'll
fare Board disagreed with some of
the findings. Mrs. Dorothy Ogburn,
executive secretary of the board, and
Mrs. Elizabeth Cartzendafner, well
fare worker assigned to the case,
testified the same conditions of
squalor did not exist on other visits
to the home.
Mrs. Ogburn, who. said it would
cost the county more than $4,000
year to keep the children in foster
homes for a year. said it would be
preferable for Mrs Palmer to retain
her family.

wise, we have perfectly normal re- lations. We have an Ambassador in Buenos Aires. We buy everything Argentina wants to sell except meat. We even permit Argentine airlines to operate in the United States. But we do not sell arms.
 However, if the Rio de Janeiro Conference is called to set up a new security pact for the Western Hem isphere, Argentina will be brought in, which means she will also buy arms from the USA.
 Secretary of War Patterson and Secretary of the Navy Forrestal contend that if we don't sell arms to Argentina she will buy them elsewhere; also that if the Argen- tine Army and Navy are trained by Americans they will be more friend ly to the USA. And it is true that the Brazilian Navy and the Argen- tine Air Corps, both trained by U. $. naval and air men have leaned toward the United States; while the Argentine and Brazilian ground forces, trained by Germans and French, have leaned away.

A FEDERAL TAX PROGRAM

The United States Chamber of Commerce has adopted a resolution favoring rigid Federal economy and lower more equitable distribution of taxes. It seems to us a sound program The present scale of spending imposes unduly heavy burdens upon individual well business taxpayers. Until taxes and the national debt considerably reduced, there should be deferment of many expensive new under takings even many of substantial merit.
 Among the constructive proposals made by the U S Chamber is one relating to Congress obtaining more adeouate information about the disbursements of government agencies projected undertakings and have arisen over the effects of cuts in House appro matters.
 Tn Chamber also deserves thanks for urging buSi- ness organizations not to exert pressure Congress for appropriation of funds to benefit particular States or communities In the of proposals involving money for national purposes, members advised to center their efforts obtaining approval from the Bureau of Budget instead of Congress. That would also be good advice for a good many government agencies.
 The National Association of Manufacturers, mean while has forth with plan to reduce the public debt The plan is to make annual appro- pration S7 800 900 for service and retirement of the public debt total of $5 100000 required to pay the interest the public debt, cost which cannot be dodged The novelty of the NAM plan is that fixed appropriation of $75O0 100000 would be year after year with savings interest pay ments added each year to funds available for retire ment
 The only trouble is that it is to be doubted if any government has the ability to look ahead far

CHILE BECOMES "CZECHOSLO-
 VAKIA"

However, ell experience points to the fact that sending armaments to Latin America leads to more re- Volutions and more rivalry between otherwise good neighbors. And to- day in South America, there is such growing fear of a military minded Argentina that Chile is frequently referred to as the "Czechoslovakia of the Western Hemisphere.
 This refers to the fact that Chile, worried over Argentine airports close to her border and hard up financially, recently received huge loan from Argentina. In return she gave Argentina a virtual mortgage on Chilean exports and imports.
 President Peron the man who has now made Chile the "Czechoslova- kia of South America" happened to have been Argentine Military At tache in Chile in 1937-38, and was expelled. Reason for his expulsion: Trying to steal Chile's secret de- fense plans. Now, some diplomats hint he doesn't have to steal them
 Another thing that worries Latin diplomats is Perons background. It isn't generally known, but Peron studied Fascism under Roberto Farinacci, former secretary of the Italian Fascist Party This was from 1889 to l940 when Peron was as- signed by the Argentine General Staff to study mountain warfare in Italy Mountain warfare, of course, is the type of warfare to be featured Tn any conquest of Chile. These are cnly a few of the stop and think twice" question

Penguins and People
Washington Starr


 Some people say that penguins do not have much brains That is debatable What is not debatabe is that they are nice birds In their way, among themselves they have fine of humor and good manners Above all, affectonate and sensitive by nature they love their homes and families very much
 These points that should keep in mind when we try to understand why some of Admiral Byrd's Antarctic penguns jumped ship on their ar rival here. Perhaps it silly thing for them to do Perhaps rather than risk the unknown perils of the Anacostia River, they would have been wiser to go meekly with Dr. Mann to the Zoo But who will presume to pass dogmatic judgment? Who can say with certainty that they not right? Who can be that they did not feel mpeled to make last desperate homesick break for freedom?
 Despite talk about their having weak minds, we do not really know how or what penguins think. If we could get inside their heads and the world they it. and feel they feel possibly we would be quite surprised We might learn for instance that they do relish the idea of being shut up and gaped at in public places We might learn that they infinitely prefer to live out their lives in their way-wth their families, among their friends, away from human beings in the great white stiffness of their natural home. We might learn in short, that they overcome with profound unhappiness and an overwhelming sense of repugnance when they are kidnapped and brought to strange and distant cline where poise and confusion abound and where the civilization of man-now holding the atom by the tail tends more and more to live in terror of it's own works
 It may be- of course that this kind of speculation has no basis in real fact and that penguins just being nonsensical when they do such things as they have done on the Anacostia Still we cannot be abso uely sure These birds creatures pleasant and admirable in their normal habitat that it would be
 ill advised for any of to sncker at their conduct in these parts. As far as conduct goes, the world probably would be better off if people bit more like them.

VACATION BIBLE
 SCHOOL OPENING
 MONDAY MORNING

The theme of the first week of Juneau's Daily Vavation Bible School will be Jesus and Indiyid- uals" and the entire program will be arranged to bring out that theme beginning on Monday morn ing at 9 o'clock when the school opens at the Northern Light Pres bvterian Church. The theme hymn for the first week will be All Hail the Power of Jesus Name"
 One of the best ways to achieve the maximum benefits from Va cation Church School is through regular attendance and the Rev. Robert Treat, who has charge Of the commencement exercises which will be held on the last day, June 13. announces that students must attend eight days of the ten day session in order to receive profi- ciency certificates. These awards will be made at a public ceremony so that parents of the Vacation Church School students may Wit ness the work of the school and ot the individual students. On the last afternoon, also, Adjutant Hen " Lorenzen has arranged a pro- gram of competitive recreation for the various departments and age groups,
 Members of the Juneau Minister ial Association, sponsoring the school are eager to point out that the Vacation Church School is completely interdenominational in character. All courses of study have been selected from those sub mitted by the International Council of Religious Education, which is an nterdenominationa organization made up of most of the major re- ligious bodies.
 The School will begin on Mon day at goo o'clock. All children below the age of six should gather at the Resurrection Lutheran Church Third and Main. All oth- CT children, six or over, should gather at the Northern Light Pres byterian Church, Fourth and Franklin.

Cincinnati Enquirer


 Alaska is intriguing and interesting place This is especially true in the summer when Wash ington, D. C., swelters ill it's humid heat and trout are striking in the streams of the north country. Congressmen, being human long to take advantage of the climate and the other opportunities which Alaska offers It is no cause for wonderment, then, that the House Public Lands Subcommittee plans a unket to the Territory within the next few months. The committee goes in order to report back to Con- gress, in the autumn, on the advisabty of admitting Alaska ful-fledged State of the Union.
 It is doubtful if the Congressmen will turn up any information that couldn't be advanced by the citizens themselves they appear before Congressional committees for hearing, or by government experts who have been, on the ground Visiting dgnitaries actually very little have very little opportunity to study to understand the real feelings of people The Alaska matter has come up before. There is, in Washington tremendous backlog of facts and figures bearing on the subject
 But-as We say-Congressmen are human. And Washington is hotter'n Hades after June arrives Maybe, between visits to rainbow streams and the nigh mountains, they'll pick up little information the folks feel about the possibility of statehood We only hope that the information they gather will be worth the money taxpayers will spend to finance the expedition.

The Washington Merry-Go-Round
SCHOOL LUNCHES
(Conttnued JrUna Page One!

However the economy cut that drew the hottest wrath from all three Democrats - Whitten, Clar- ence Cannon of Missouri and Harry Sheppard of California-wa the re- peal of section 32 of the Agricul- tural Adjustment Act. This sets aside 30 percent of customs pro- ceeds from farm imports into the United States to be used for ex- banding farm markets. Under this, new markets are found for surplus farm products at home and abroad For instance, surplus potatoes are turned into starch and surplus milk mas been used for school lunches.
 In the last 10 years, Whitten pointed out, 81 million dollars of customs funds have gone to poul- try producers; l46 million to fruit growers; 130 million to grain far mers; 125 million to dairy larmers 154 million to cotton producers and II million to meat producers
 But most important of all,' said the Mississippian, "a total of 204 million dollars has gene into the school-lunch program for children. Do you wan. to wreck that?"
 The only way. under present law, that funds can be diverted to find markets for surplus farm commo- dities is under section 32," he con- tinued. The Commodity Credit Corporation, which pays support prices to insure producers a fair price for surplus products has no powers to divert money for increas- ed markets"
 Dirksen and the Republicans con- ceded that this might be true, but held fast to the view that money for such purposes should be by di- rect Congressional appropriation, instead of allocating it from GUS toms receipts or some ether source.
