Reorganization Drops
III Virginia Agencies
By the Assoeiofsd Press

RICHMOND, Va, July 2.-Seven-
teen Virginia State governmental
agencies we're out of existence to-
day as the States first full-scale
reorganiza tion in 20 years became
effective.
Under acts OF the 1948 Assembly
the agencies ceased to exist as Of
yesterday. These included the State
land Office, dating back to the sev.
enteenth century, and the Worlo
War II history commission.
Functions of the agencies have
been absorbed into other depart
ments through a streamlined sys-
tenn of transfers and mergers.

Police Of Area Ready
To Curb All Fireworks
Except Spark|ers

It won't be the laws fault If
Johnny blows off finger or puts
out an eye with fireworks this
Fourth Of July.
Police in Washington and in the
nearby counties of Montgomery and
Prince Georges in Maryland, and
Arlington County and Alexandria in
Virginia have promised to keep a
watch on any illegal sale or use of
fireworks.
The only pyrotechnics legally vail
able for junior are sparklers, con-
sidered harmless.
First Aid Described.
However, just in case some fire
works do get set off in the District
and first aid is needed, District
Health Officer George C. Rutland
advised solution of calamine To-
ton about the eyes; Unguentine
or similar salve for burns about the
hands, arms and legs. A strong
solution of tea also may be used
for burns, he said. Lacerations or
other wounds may be treated with
iodine.
IF earth or powder from firecrack-
ers becomes irnbedded in the wound,
DR.. Rutland says, tetanus infec-
ton is possible, and the family ply
sician should be called at once.
The Red Cross. also stressing
safety for the week end, suggests
the motto, BE Alive on July 81 The
Red Cross will have first aid units
along the parade route Saturday
in connection with the Washington
Monument Centennial Celebration,
as we'll as at the Sunday Water
Gate concert and the Monday eve
ming Monument Grounds fireworks
display.
Maryland Permit Needed.
In Washington and the Virginia
areas it is illegal to sell or use any
other type of fireworks. In the
Maryland counties, it is necessary to
obtain a permit from the State In
su1ance Commissioner in Baltimore
to set off fireworks, and such per-
mits usually are issued only to club
or civic groups planning community
displays. The Maryland law carries
a fine Of up to 5000 for selling fire.
works and up to $50 for setting
them off.
The nearest available fireworks
are on sale in Fairfax County, Va.
where anything under two inches
long and a quarter-inch in diam
eter is considered harmless enough
to be sold and set of.
Deadly Autos on Roads.
Another week end peril to life and
limb which. unlike fireworks, is not
illegal is the auto. The Keystone
Automobile Club estimated today
that 1OO,OO0,000 Americans will be
out on the Nations highways some
time during the three-day week end,
riding in substantially all of the
country's 31,0O0,000 cars.
The club advised to "be extra
careful at intersections" and never
attempt to cut around traffic on
curves or hills" A brake-check be-
fore starting on the week end is
also suggested.
District Traffic Director George E
Keneipp pointed out that week end
traffic is up about % per cent over
a year ago, with an even greater in
crease on long week ends. He cited
last years traffic figures which
showed four persons killed and 81
seriously injured over the Fourth in
the District

In Prince Georges
To Sponsor Carnival

The newly incorporated Prince
Georges County Civic Federation
will sponsor a carnival at College
Park next week to pay expenses of
the federation's recent futile fight
against fare raises in Maryland by
the Capital Transit Co.
THE federation feels it has a
moral obligation to raise funds in
any manner it can to pay off its

dent of the group, told federation

other expenses.
$40 in Treasury.
I'VE only have little over $40 in
our treasury right now" Mr.. Multi
gan asserted.
Some of the receipts from the fed
erations first carnival will go to
Attorney Gregory Hapkins, former
District Public Utilities G Commission
chairman, who acted as counsel for
the Joint Transportation Commit
tee, of which the federation was a
part in the fare raise fight. Mr.
Hankin, who sought $500 for his
services, Unexpectedly suspended
himself from participation in the
case last February Is before the
hearings were ended because he had
only received a nominal fee." He
said he had not been paid up to date
In other business, the federation
approved resolution prepared by
Daniel M. Greene, legislative chair
man of the group, continuing the
same officers, committees, delegates
and other members of the new group
The federation was granted a char
ter, officially becoming the Prince
Georges County Civic Federation
Inc, by the Maryland State Tax
Commission last Monday, Mr.. Greene
reported.
To Attend Hearings.
Mr.. Greene was named to repre-.
