Ball 10 Renew Fiqht
For Probe of District
|PoliceAdministrations

Senator Ball, Republican, of Min
nesota, in a communication to hi
constituents, today announced HI
will press for Senate probe of th'
police administrations here.
In letters to Minnesotans, he pro-
tested the civil rights situation her.
and attacked Police Supt. Robert j
Barrett and the handling of thu
Willie Clegg case.
His letter centered the spotlight
on President Truman for mot doing
something" about the alleged dis.
regard of the civil rights of Negroes
and other "uninf1uential people" it
the District.
president Truman could dt
something about that situation
(civil rights without consulting
Congress-" said Senator Ball, "be
cause he appoints the three Com
missioners who run the city gov
ernment and who, in turn, appoin
the police administration which i
responsible for law enforcement
here.
"Mr. Truman likewise appoint.
the United States district attorney
who is Washington's prosecuting at
torney."
Sought $4,000 Probe.
Senator Ball was co-author O.
a resolution placed before the Sen
ate late in the past session for {
SEE, 900 police investigation. 1t wa
favorably reported from the Senat'
District Committee but was stymiee
on the Senate calendar by objec
tiops from Senator Johnston, Dem
ocrat, of South Carolina.
There has been no action on thi!
issue at this session. 1t had beer
thought the probe idea had died be-
cause of many changes in polict
procedures ordered in the last eigh
months by Maj. Barrett.
Senator Balls letter, however
said:
Here, in Washington, a. nev
police chief, one Robert Barrett, wa
appointed last summer. Barret
once was convicted of beating vi
and crippling a man arrested OF
suspicion, who later was proved
innocent. A retrial was ordered bu
was never held. Barrett is the kint
of policeman most cities hav'
avoided for a generation.
Rough Treatment "Notorious."
"The rough treatment washing
ton Negroes receive at the hands o
the police here is so notorious tina
few of them will carry a complain
to police any more. The reception
they get indicates to them that an,
Negro, or any other person withou
influence, is guilty until proved in
nocent."
In reference to the Willie Cegs
case, a colored veteran of Worle
War II, arrested last fall on
suspicion of molesting women
Senator Ball said the man was hele
incommunicado for "a hours, "cuffee
around and bruised and finally re.
leased, hours after any intelligent
policeman could have ascertainee
that a mistake had been made"
A campaign by the Washington
Post, then employer of Mr.. Clegg
he added, forced a departmental
trial of three policemen. This trial
which resulted in acquittal of tht
police officers, Senator Ball called 6
'farce on justice" Mr.. Clegg, he
said, finally quit his job here ane
went back to North Carolina.

Non-Resiidents
Get Injunction
In Tuition Row
38Students Allowed Il
Stoy in Public School.
Here Until Hearing

The 38 nonresident students at
Woodrow Wilson High School, who
school officials want to dismiss for
nonpayment of tuition, today have
a District Court order preventing
such action.
Justice F.. Dickinson Let's
granted a preliminary injunction
yesterday permitting the students,
who live in Maryland, to remain in
school until a hearing is held for
a permanent ruling. The injunc-
ton temporarily prevents School
Supt. Hobart M. Corning from ex-
pelling them.
At the same time, he dismissed
motion to prevent the expulsion
of q student at Macfarland Junior
High School who through his
father had sought to have DR..
Corning enjoined from dismissing
him. This case was based on the
contention that the child of Dis
trict employe was eligible to attend
school here no matter where the
family lived.
| question OIL DennltlOn.
The deciding factor in the two
cases was the meaning of the word
| "enroll"
The 1948 District Appropriations
Act specified that nonresident
students should not be educated free
in public schools here. But the
act also said it was not to affect
any pupil enrolled before the act be-
came effective, which was last July
| Is.
The parents argued that by sign
ing up their children before July
Is they had complied with the
meaning of enrolled in the act.
The school officials contended that
to be enrolled the children must
have been in actual attendance the
previous school year.
Opinion Qu6ted.
In his memorandum opinion on
the case, Justice Let's said:
eff there is a serious question as
to the intention of Congress in
using the word enrolled it is be-
lieved that the word was employed
in its usual and ordinary sense. The
same meaning would have been con-
veyed If Congress had used the word
registered.
Justice Let's said it was clear in
the Appropriations act that Congress
intended to withdraw free instruc-
ton to nonresident pupils, but did
not want to interrupt seriously the
educational plans of students al
ready in the schools here. He said
the variance in practice of school
principals, in that some accepted
registration during the summer and
others did not, resulted in "seem-
ing discrimination" against other
children from nearby Maryland and
Virginia who attempted to enroll.
Discrimination Denied.
But it was not discrimination
in the law" he stated. IF Congress
had said that no part Of the moneys
appropriated shall be available for
the free instruction of red-headed
boys, discrimination in the law
would be readily apparent"
In the second case, Justice Let's
said the son of Herbert C. Young, a
District policeman living in Mary
land, was not enrolled before the
effective date of the act and thus
was not entitled to free tuition.
Under previous appropriation acts
children of persons working here
were allowed to attend schools free.
The present act makes no excep-
| tons.

Spends $4,000
For Fertilizer

When a farmer spends $4,000
cash for fertilizer for his farm,
that's news!
So declares assistant agricultural
agent, Robert L. Pinnow in Mari
copa county, and here's his story.
Earl S. Dobson, a Maricopa
county farmer, has 160 acres of
good soil with level fields. He has
been raising good crops for quite
some time now. Recently he told
Pinnow: II have just spent $4,000
cash for fertilizer on this farm"
Naturally, Pinnow wanted to know
what kind of fertilizer,
Dobson's reply was, 81 don't have
enough manure on my own farm,
so I went to my neighbor's and
bought the manure from his dairy
herd. put on 10 tons to the acre
and paid SIS ton cash for it. I
think it's the best investment I
ever made"
Naturally, county agent Pinnow
agrees, and adds that the "divi-
dends" will be return from that
investment for several years to
come.
