What is meant by family welfare"
agencies?
This is a group of agencies whose
primary responsibility is to give in
dividual service to family groups or
to individuals within family groups
who are facing economic, social or
emotional difficulties in which they
require expert guidance rather than
financial aid.
Why are there so many different
kinds?
Because the variety of problems
In which families may become in
volved is so great. The problems
are so complicated that they can be
treated better if agencies, like doc
tors, become specialists in certain
types of social difficulties, or can
work with their own coreligionists
or fellow members of an organized
group.

Collection by Police
For Boys Club Asked

The Commissioners were asked
yesterday to let Washington police
men collect funds for the Police
Boys Club. -ts.5t'*
The request came from the clubs
Board of Directors, four members of
which called on the Commissioners
in their weekly meeting this morn
ing.
Policemen now are prohibited
from making solicitations for any
organization while in uniform. The
delegation, headed by R. c. Sim
mons, president of the group, took
the view that collections for the
Boys Club are not solicitations since
they are accomplished through sale
Of memberships in the organization
Police Chief Robert j. Barrett
who attended the conference, sup
ported the request.
There are now Boys Club branches
at six police precincts. The aim is
to establish clubs in each of the
city's 13 precincts.
In addition to Mr. Simmons, the
clubs directing board was repre-
sented by James E. Collif1oWer, Max
harrington and John A. Remon.
The Commissioners reached nc
decision, but will consult with the

Welfare Difficulties
Described by Koqod

Fred C. Kogod, a member of the
Board of Public Welfare, yesterday
expressed doubt that two vacancies
on the board can be filled until the
question of the boards authority is
settled.
He was speaking before a Vote
less League of Women Voters meet
ing at Pierce Hall, Harvard and
Fifteenth streets NV. Mr. Kogod
said, THE division of authority
with the Commissioners has been
a thorn in our side"
Another difficulty was the fact
that budgets are made up year
and a half in advance of expendi-
lures and the money must be spent
within rigid specifications, despite
the shifting population and changed
situations otherwise.
THE board should have the pre-
rogative of using the money ap-
propriated where it is most needed
he said, within the general pur-
pose of the appropriations"
The meeting was the second of
four on the municipal government
of Washington. Mrs. John P. Nc
Clintock presided.

Commission. John Ihlder spoke on

Liquor Licenses Denied
Restaurant, Package Store

The Alcoholic Beverage Control
Board today refused to issue liquor
licenses to a restaurant and pack
age store.
The application for the package
store was made by Morris and
Charles Shoock, who sought trans
fer of the license they now hold in
the 1900 block Thirteenth street
NV, to 1905 Georgia avenue NV.
The transfer was protested by the
Monroe Parent-Teacher Association
and William B.sWest, dean of men
at Howard University, who said the
neighborhood now is sufficiently sup
piled with liquor stores.
The board also refused to grant a
license to a restaurant to dispense
liquors to Herbert Saunders, at 1889
Wiltberger street NV, because it
was within 400 feet lin a straight
line" of church.
The hearing set for today on a
charge that Guy Paul Interdonato,
who conducts a restaurant at 527-31
Eighth street Sc, sold liquor to q
minor was postponed because the
board was unable to locate the

years. Pieces were added by other
members of the Bonaparte family
until 1910. Much of the collection
has been broken up since, but sew
eral pieces are for sale at the show
at $25 a spoon.
$4,000 Tea Set.
Other silver exhibited includes a
tea set weighing 30 pounds. created
by S. Kirk and Sons in Baltimore
in 1872. Complete with waste bowl
a handy spot for dumping old tea
bags and used lemons-it can be
had for $4,000.
A new fad in costume jewelry is
the wearing of military decorations
of foreign countries, one exhibitor
reported. But, he adds seriously,
they must be genuine. The medals
displayed here were CLEANED from
old estates and from some proud
but broke artistocrats not above
parting with a few trinkets for a
meal or two.
Toys dating from the later Civil
War period feature iron fire en-
gines and mechanical banks.
The scarabs date back to cen
turies before Christ, according to
the exhibitor. Some are as large as
weazened lemon, while others are
as small as a seed. All bear the seal
of the original owners, and were
used by them to sign letters and
state documents. According to the
legend, instant death was the penalty
for any common person wearing or
having possession of one.

Mementoes from Napoleon's dim
ner table, the boudoirs of some OF
Europe's fashiest ladies and the
decorations of history's military he
roes are among the thousands OF
antiques which this week are crowd
ed on some two dozen tables in the
Hotel Statler's presidential room.
Display cases are lined with scar
abs bearing some forgotten Egyp-
tian rulers curse. Early maps OF
New Jarsey and the coast of the
New World line the walls. Some
60O-year- old religious songs, labori-
ously copied by monks, are there,
too.
The exhibit, in which antique
dealers from the Colonial towns OF
New England to the Spanish vii
lagos of California are represented,
is one of a series presented here

hibits. incidentally, are for sale.

JOKER-Some top Civil Service
Commission officials confide that
the Commissions new regulation to
aid employees dismissed as bad Sc
curity risks" isn't as helpful as it
appears.
These employees were dropped by
the State Department., Central In
telligence Agency and other So
called sensitive" units of the Gov
ernment. Now the commission has
agreed to investigate the cases and
to certify the employees eligible for
other Federal employment, if the
facts warrant it.
But the joker is that the commits
sion is not empowered to give the
employees hearing, nor is the State
Department or CIA required to di-
vulge any information to the Com
mission concerning the employees
and the reasons for which they were
dropped.
The result will be only partial
investigation, and may not be ex-
pected to clear fully the employees,
no matter how innocent of wrong
they may be.
These officials point out this group
of employees has not been charged
with being disloyal but that the term
bad security risks" places an I'M
warranted stigma of disloyalty on
them. A better solution, they say,
would be for State and CIA to get
rid of this type of employees under
regular civil service procedure. Na-
tional security would not suffer and
the employees chances for future
employment would not be jeopor-
died, the officials hold.
Incidentally, this is the stand also
taken by Civil Service Commissioner
Arthur S. Flemming. 1t appears like
ly that President Truman will be
asked to take hand in the situation.

PAY REPORT-The lnveStigative
staff of the Senate Civil Service
Committee soon will submit to the

port to accompany the Federal pay
raise legislation.
Confirming the arguments of en-
ployes' groups, the reports will show
that pay raises accorded Govern
ment employees during the past few
years have not kept pace with in
creased living costs, nor have Gov
ernment pay raises come anywhere
near the wage gains won by en-
ployes in private industry.
Chairman LANCER of the commit
tee expects to lean heavily on the
report in his drive to obtain enact
ment of Federal pay raise legislation.

Recording 10 Be Used
In Fire Alarm Case

For the second time in Fire De-

report will be brought into Munich
pal Court at l pm. tomorrow as
evidence in false alarm case.
The recording will be brought in
at the request of p Bateman Ennis,
lawyer for Miss Frances Thibadeau,

street NV, who is charged with
telephoning the false report during
the evening rush hour on october 81.
Mr. Ennis told Judge Almond w.

on the recording with that of his
client, who denies she called the

cinct, however, reported the woman
had told him she had locked her
self out of her apartment. When
he suggested she call a locksmith,
he said, she demurred, pointing out

step had cost her $3.50 The police

versation the report of fire at her
address was turned, in.

Whitehurst Says Plan
Will Not Require
2-Yeur Extension

The District three-year postwar
highway construction program viii;
enter its last year on schedule and
will be completed by the end of
1948, according to Capt. H. C..
Whitehurst, District highway direc-
tor.
Capt. Whitehurst, speaking before
a meeting of the Highways Com
mittee of the Washington Board Of
Trade yesterday, said that many OF
the projects planned already have
been completed and that the three
year program will be finished on
time, despite a tWo-year period of
grace granted by Congress.
Some Projects Carried Over.
He said some projects scheduled
for 1947, such as the underpass at
Dupont Circle, have been carried
over into next year because of their
magnitude.
Speaking of the work of high
way planning, Capt. Whitehurst
pointed out that a comprehensive
solution of the city's traffic prob
lens is always the primary consid-
Grafton, rather than make-shift
patching up Of individual trouble
spots.
The increase in the volume of
traffic in recent years has, at times,
made projects obsolete before they
were completed, he said.
Trouble Point Unsolved.
Capt. Whitehurst said that, after
several months Of study no accept
able solution had been reached for
the traffic problems at lexington
place and Florida avenue NE. A
plan submitted by the National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission, proposing an overpass on
New York avenue over First street
and Florida avenue now is under
consideration ana offers the best
possibility for a solution thus far.
George V. Graham, chairman of
the Highways Committee of the
Trade Board, announced the names
of newly appointed chairmen OF
subcommittee to study different
aspects of the highway problem:
William R. Ellis, bridges; Charles
M. Upham, snow removal; Louis j:

Montgomery Board
Finally Settles
Durnestown Issue

An argument among Montgomery
County authorities over road main
tenance, climaXed by threats of res
Iignations by three county officials,
was finally settled last night when
the County Commissioners agreed
to send some" road equipment i'm
mediately to the area represented
by Commissioner George C. (Ace)
Esworthy.
The three who threatened to re-
sign, but who later reconsidered
their proposed action, were County
Supervisor Irving G. McNayr, Mr.
Esworthy and Road Supervisor J. o.
Harvey.
The fare-up, which occurred at
the board meeting in Rockville,
started when Mr. EsWorthy,, who
lives at DarnestoWn, complained of
bad roads in his area and suggested
that separate road maintenance
crews be set up in each of the five
commissioner districts,
Opposed by McNayr.
This was strongly opposed by Mr..
McNayr, who said such a move
would put the county back Is
years." He added that if the pro-
posal was adopted he would have
to resign" At this point Mr.. Har-
vey also threatened to resign.
Commissioner Oliver w. Young
blood then offered a resolution to
send all available road equipment
to Mr.. Esworthy's district. The
equipment was to remain there un-
till all roads were repaired.
After some discussion, the reso-
luton was withdrawn in favor of
a substitute motion by Commis-
sioner Charles H. Jamison, the only
Democrat on the board.
Mr.. Jamison's motion was to send
two graders to Mr.. Esworthy's area,
as we'll as any trucks which might
become available later, The equip
ment was to be operated under the
supervision of Mr.. McNayr and Mr..
Harvey.
Approved by 3-to-1 Vote.
The motion was approved by a
| iii lcC-GO-Ol1C NOlC Will
Wesley I. Sauter casting the only
dissenting vote and Mr.. EsWorthy
not voting. Immediately afterWard,
Mr.. Esworthy threatened to resign.
"All I've ever wanted" he de-
clared, was our share of road
equipment"
Although members of the Repub-
lican-controlled board have fire.
quently disagreed since they took
Office last December, last nights
dispute was the first to reach such
serious stage and the first to in
volve Mr.. McNayr and Mr.. Harvey.
Both men are holdovers from the
previous Democratic administra-
