The IVNS nurse shown with

this is one patient who has
learned to help herself. Martha
cheerfully seWs, bakes, washes
and irons and keeps her house

Mark takes over when the

overcoming a crippling tragedy

that already have swelled to
$4,000. -,.-.
Their community stepped

The school bond issue is the most

outspokenly in favor Of the issue.
two others are against it, and the
fourth has refused to take a stand.
At Washington-Lee, the youthful
political organizations are the Best

formed by merger OF two groups
which started out as Students

her fiance protested the mur-
murs of "amputation."
Martha's life hung in the

The accident had struck on
a bleak January day in 1947.
Martha had planned to be
married again. Her son John

School Politics Tieup
DepIored by HiIder

Arlington schools are being In.
jected into politics by the Citizens'
Committee for School Improvement
and the Better Government League
80 they can bring pressure to bear
on the County Board and other elec-
tions," Leonard Hlder, chairman Of
the County Democratic Campaign
Committee, charged yesterday.
This small third party minority
is trying to take advantage of the
honest desires of many sincere peo-
pie who wish to solve our pressing
school needs" Mr.. Hilder said.
On November 2, Arlington resi-
dents will cast their ballots for one
member of the County Board and
also will be asked to vote on q
$4,750,O00 school bond issue refer
endum and the question of shifting
School Board elections from Novem-
Der to May.
Mr.. Hilder asserted the third
party minority" knows the school
bond referendum lis no more an
issue in the County Board election
than a sewer bond issue would be in
the School Board election.
They hope to dupe a lot of good
citizens into falling for their game
and use the schools to ride into
power"
A debate on the proposal to shift
the Arlington School Board election
date will feature a meeting of the
Arlington Democratic Club at 8:15
o'clock tonight in the Ashton
Heights Women's Clubhouse, North

13-Cent Bus Fare Goe!
In Effect Oct. 81 on
w: N. & A. Lines

Fares for rides within the District
on buses of the Washington, Marl-
noro and Annapolis Motor Lines
Inc. will be increased to 13 cents
cash or three tokens for 35 cents
effective October 81.
The Public Utilities Commission
o. dered the increases late yesterday
bringing w. NJ & A. fares up to the
rate schedule already authorized by
the PUG for the Capital Transit Co.
w. M. & A., which now charges
10 cents cash and quarter for three
tokens, had asked the PUG to grant
l5-cent cash fare and permission
to sell two tokens for a quarter.
$500 Riders Daily.
". A. McElfresh, executive ac-
countant and auditor of the PUG,
said about $500 persons ride the
District portions of the w. M. 81 A.
line daily. He recommended to PUG
Commissioners James H. Flanagan
and James Lauderdale that the
Capital Transit fare schedule be
applied to w. M. g. A-which sends
most Of its buses into southern
Maryland through the southeast
section of Washington -
Public hearings before the PUG on
the request for rate increase were
begun September q, continued on
October 8 and concluded october II.
The PUG conclusion declared:
THE record is clear that during
the IL months ended June 80, 1913,
the company sustained loss from
its total operations and that some
proportion of this loss was directly
attributable to its District opera
tfons.
"The conclusion that an increase
In fares is necessary is inescapable.
The aggregate amount Of the in
crease in revenues needed to MAIN
tain the company in sound finan-
cial condition is difficult to estimate.
1t is even more difficult to deter
mine. with exactness, the amount Of
revenue that any given fare struc-
ture will produce.
So Return Expected.
"On the record before it, the COM
mission finds and concludes that the
establishment of a cash fare of 13
cents and a token fare of ll2a cents
Ito be sold in lots of three) will.
under reasonably forseeable condi-
tions, provide the company with a
return approximating per cent on
its investment devoted to furnishing
bus transportation service in the
District OF Columbia"
The decision said the PUG is of
the opinion that such a return is
fair and reasonable and will main
tain the company in a sound finan-
cial position insofar as its District
operations are concerned. On the
other hand, the PUG declared, such
fare will not impose an undue
burden on the users of the service
and will be just, reasonable and
non discriminatory.
The new rates will not affect the
rates presently being charged school
children.
