Russia Will Close
lis School Here for
Diplomats Children

A Soviet Embassy spokesman said
today he thought" the special
school for children of Russian rep
resentatives here will close for good
at the end of the present term
June 20.
Presumably, he said, the children
will be sent back to Russia next
autumn to continue their education.
First news of the move came Weo-
nesday. when zot J. Chepurnykh.
Russian vice consul in New York,
announced the branch of the insti-
tuition there was closing and added
he thought the one in Washington
would. too. The move, Mr.. Che
purnykh explained, was occasioned
by the difiiculty of getting proper
school facilities and teachers in this
country.
Venjamin N. Matchavariani. sec
ond secretary and press attache OF
the Embassy here, said today he was
pretty sure" Mr.. Chepurnykh was
right.

Forty-nine pupils are involved in

them Ambassador Alexander S.
Panyushkin's 10-year-old son. The
Embassy established the school.
now on Twenty-first street NV.
near Dupont Circle. 10 years ago.
Since then, with rare exceptions.
the children of all Russian oficials
here have attended it. Nikolai
Novikov, Ambassador here before
Mr.. Panyushkin, sent his 6-year-old
son to kindergarten at Friends
School for one year, but withdrew
him to attend the first grade at the
Russian school.
In prewar days Russians were less
strict about their children's school,
ing here. The son of Alexander A.

dor here, went to Friends and later
to Swarthmore College Now he is

Democrats in House
Declare 6. 0.P. Seeks
10 Trim Farm Funds
By the kssoeioted Press

Over bitter Democratic protests,
the House today agreed to try to
iron out differences with the Senate
over appropriations for the Agri-
culture Department.

was 204 to 140
Democrats led by Representatives

non, Democrat, of Missouri: Chap
man, Democrat, of Kentucky, and
Rankin, Democrat, of Mississippi
cried out that the Republican ma
jority was seeking to kill off SUBJ
stantial increases approved by the

For more than an hour, Democrats
and Republicans shouted charges
and countercharges. holding back
debate on appropriations for the
European Recovery Program.
Mr.. Rankin assailed the ERP pro-
gram. declaring it would cost ST.
250,000 for every county IN Amer
ica," and he said:
You're not selling America down
the river. you are giving America
away down the river"
The major protest was that while
billions are going overseas under the
Marshall Plan, the Republicans were
attempting to deprive American
farmers and school children OF
benefits at home.
The House version of the Agri-
culture Department appropriations
bill provides s225 900 900 for soil con-
servation, $500 100000 for the rural

Justice Alexander Holtzoff, pre-
siding at their trial before jury,
directed a verdict Of acquittal on
motion of defense counsel, who
pointed out that not a single Gov
eminent witness had identified
either defendant as having stolen
anything.

dent after having been found guilty
by trial board of conduct unbe-
coming an officer. He was on sick

ing the house. Mr.. Drager told the

lice force. Attorney Charles E. Ford

trial board action against Mr..
Dreger had been based largely on
the fact that he was on sick leave

tering the Portner place house.

Teachers in AFL Unit
Hold 'Gripe Session
On 1947 Pay Measure

District members of the American
Federation Of Teachers (AFL) out
lined what they considered inequi-
ties in the Teachers Salary Act of
l947 at a "gripe session" last night
in Pierce Hall, Sixteenth and Har-
ward streets NV.
Among the major points raised
were assertions that veteran teach
ers do not receive full placement,
that teachers are required to show
proof of professional growth every
five years, that attendance officers
are not eligible for the masters de-
gree scale of pay and that voca-
tional instructors are eligible for
but not likely to get, that scale.
Mrs. Catherine Lockwood, repre-
senting the attendance officers, said
the two chief officers in her group
are the lowest paid administrative
of1cers in the entire school system.
She explained they work as prin-
cipals but are paid as teachers.
SerVlcc Crcnt Asked.
Don B. Goodloe. union official, (.e-
clared that If Beethoven himself
were teaching music in our system,
he could not go beyond $4,000 a
year" unless he had masters
degree.
1t was compained the bill did not
recognize trade experience the
teacher might have.
Mr.. Goodloe asked that veterans
who taught one day or more before
entering military service be credited
with experience up to five years.
Miss Selma M. Borchart. area vice
president of the union, wanted to
know how can District teachers
report this year how they have
participated in in-service training
when the Board Of Education has
not yet established an in-seryice
course?" *'S 'F''' WV
Urge Alliance of Groups.
Several persons at the gathering
voiced need for the alliance of
all teacher groups in an association
in which school officers do not parti-
cipate.
The group gave a vote Of conf
dence to Mrs. Henry Grattan Doyle,
president of the board and former
teacher, for opposing revision of
the rules to prohibit teachers from
lobbying before Congress.

Businessmen Protest
Proposed Playground
Near Dennison School

Businessmen and residents of the
area around Fourteenth and S
streets NV appeared before the
Commissioners today at a public
hearing to oppose a Recreation
Board proposal for establishment OF
a playground on land near the
abandoned Dennison School, 140O
block of S street NV.
Attorney Renah F. Gamalier, rep
resenting automobile dealers and
other businessmen of the area, de-
clared the land adjacent to the
school would add up to nothing but
an expanded alley and added, you
just can't build character in an
alley"
Land Now Is Rented.
The parcel of land in the 1900
block of Fourteenth street NV.
now Is rented by the District to the
businessmen for use as parking
lot.
Eventually. District plans call for
the use of the lot and other land
in the block for the proposed new
Csrdozo High School.
Mr.. Camalier warned that the
will be forced to move
to Virginia and Maryland If the
plan is adopted, depriv-
ing the District OF important sources
Of tax revenue.
Stating the position Of the Recrea-
ton Board, Chairman Harry s.
Wender told the city heads that no
other suitable land Is available in
the neighborhood for a playground
for colored children.
Petition Is Submitted.
1T is far more important that
these children have a safe place to
play than it is for men (the busi-
to have place to park, :"
Mr.. Wender declared.
Eugene A. Mitchell, secretary of
the Boys Community Club, Inc,
also appearing on behalf Of the
proposal, said nearly
{, 1000 colored children Of school age
live in the area and handed the
Commissioners a petition of residents
