Distrust of Russia Growing,
The CLOS position is that Mr.
Wallace can split labor's vote and
lessen its effectiveness in the 1e48
elections. 1t favors ERP as a steu
to put Western Europe back on its
feet and keep it in the democratic
camp.
Beyond all this a growing distrust
of Russia is evident in the CIO,
which in times past had advocated
trying to get along with Moscow.
For instance, CIO Publicity Direc-
tor Allan Swim wrote few days age
in the CIO News that:
Russia has embarked on an ex-

to another blood bath. She seems

Discussion Held
} On Needs For
Handicapped

At the recent meeting of the
Montgomery County Delegation
with the Cerebral Palsy Commit
tee, the need for educational ia
cilities for handicapped children
was discussed. The Committee told
the Delegation that one of the most
serious handicaps in their program
is the reluctance of parents to
make known the needs of their
children. The Delegation would
appreciate that parents interested
in this program should communi-
cate with Mrs. Walter T. Nolte,
Chairman of Cerebral Palsy Com
mittee, or A. R. Lofstrand, Jr.,
Chairman of the Montgomery
County Delegation.
The Delegation is deeply SYM
pathetic to the request of this
Committee for educational facili-
ties and feels that immediate steps
should be taken by the County and
State Boards of Education. 1t
calls attention to a provision in
the Maryland Code, Article II,
Sec. 229, which provides for State
fAid in the sum of 5000 per pupil
when the County Board of Educa-
tion instigates a County program
in accordance with the provisions
of the Statute.

Police Chief Warns Of
Dangerous Traffic Days

I'VE arrive before dark. Instead of
hurrying, which means the taking
of chances, we should realize that
additional time is necessary for the
trip. An extra five or ten minutes
will give US the margin of safety
that may save a life.
MANY motorists fail to turn on
their headlights soon enough.
Others fail to realize that visibility
during the twilight hour is lessen
ed.
Motorists should cut down their
speed to insure safe stopping
within the distance of their visibil
ity. Blind driving is one of the
major contributing factors for the
increase in the number of accidents
during the twilight hour. Fall
brings rain and fog, which de-
creases visibility and causes slip
perry pavements. We should all
reduce our speed accordingly" he
added.
Furthermore" he asserted, eve
