ANNAPOLIS, Md, Aug. Hell

devils" declared Alexander w. An
drews, who taught Sunday school
for 80 years.
But three clergymen and theo-
logical student who debated the
issue with him last night on an
hour-long radio program main
tanned that Satan is more than a
myth and characterized him as:
/. THAT fiend." :,
2. 1.-THE father of sin and sinners.
3. A being who stalks the realm
of racial intolerance " or :
cold war"
The churchmen took to the air in
response to Mr.. Andrews challenge,
a haIf-page newspaper advertise
ment in which the former Methodist
Bible class leader proclaimed. THESE
hell-and-devil ministers get my goat
- they've been deceiving us Tor
1900 years about these things.

BIadensburg Favors
Slot Machine Fees

A plan to impose special license
fee on slot machines had the ap-
proval of the Bladensburg Town
Council today, but final adoption
cannot be taken until the next meet
ing of the group.
The plan was offered as a Substi-
tute by Councilman Carroll Palmer
when he failed to get second to
his original motion to levy $1,000
tax on each machine as means of
driving them out of the town.
Mr.. Palmer had declared earlier
that even though town and county
ordinances prohibit use of the
machines for gambling, there is still
some paying off across the counter"
The biggest problem, he said, lis try
ing to catch it."
The substitute motion provides for
a reasonable" fee on the devices.
The amount will be placed in the
proposed ordinance prior to its Sec
ond and final reading.
In other actions, the council
granted permission to the Washing
ton Suburban Sanitary Commission
to construct water and sewer lines
across the Wheeler property between
Tilden road and Edmonston avenue.
Also, the council approved employ
ment of two full-time policemen at
annual salaries of $4,000 each to sup
plement the present force.

ing shop at 156 L street Sc, land
customer, Webster O'Connor. Both

he was accused of being drunk.
The other two members of the

Taken Under Study

District Rent Control Examiner

Amusement a request by owners of
the Meridian Hill Hotel for 80 per
cent rent increase on 538 Of its
637 units.

Alexandra Tax Plan
Is Adopted by Virginia

A new system of personal property
taxation adopted by the Alexandria
City Council last month has been
approved by State tax officials and
will be put into use when taxpayers
file returns next year.
The new plan involves the use
of separate forms for business and
residential properties. 1t is designed
for more effective collection of per-
sonal property taxes.
The residential forms will offer
taxpayers the choice of listing all
their personal property for assess
nient or accepting a mandatory
assessment based on the assessed
value of their homes. Persons who
rent may be assessed according to
their annual rental.
The new system also gives the
commissioner of revenue authority
to make mandatory personal
property assessment based on prop
'erty values or rentals in cases
where no forms are filed or where
he feels the returns are inaccurate.

Question of Soton's Existence
Aroued by Churchmen on Radio

old vicar of St. Anne's Episcopal
Church, Annapolis, and, Jerry II.
Simpson, jr., theological student at
Bethlehem, Pa.
Mr.. Smiley pointed to the Bible
as proof of that fiend's existence.
Mr.. Andrews resorted to the Bible
himself, saying it has mentioned
many times that Jesus cast out
devils" Now, he added, men are
the only devils to be found"
God has all the power needed
to punish wrong doing" he said.
"He needs no assistance in the form
of a devil or a place OF eternal
torture"
MIR. Simpson said, Satan means
the enemy of God. Wherever you
have racial intolerance, wherever
you have national antipathy, or as
il is more commonly called, a cold
war. you have the devil"
MIR. Atkinson said In his argu-
ment that hell is a great prison
prepared for '* the atheist, the
deist, the skeptic, the materialist
."
Mr.. Smoot said that I'VE do not
accept this challenge because Of any
fiendish misanttropy.
"We accept because Gods word
has been challenged, which un-
mistakenly teaches that there Il
a real hell and . real devil"

pected to make recommendation as
to what fare rate Capital Transit
