One Protest Remains
Against Nays New
Patuxent Range Plan

Only one protest was on file to-
day against the revamped plan for
an aerial target range off the Naval
Air Station at Patuxent, Md, in
! Chesapeake Bay.
This is in marked contrast to the
storm raised within the last two
months against a previous plan by
so compliments, representing all
types of water interests in that area.
No public hearing was held then.
/ Col. Henry C.. Wolfe, Washington
district engineer, for the Army's
Corps of Engineers, held a public
hearing here yesterday. Before de-
Gliding the issue. he said, he will
await the Nays reaction to a
Maryland suggestion that one of the
targets near Cedar Point, Md, be
moved to make way for oyster bed
development. Col. Wolfe will issue
new regulations TO cover the situa-
ton later.
Speaks for Boat Owners.
The lone written protest was from
Thomas D. Harden, vice president of
L. A. Clarke & Sons. Inc, lumber
firm of 1925 Vermont avenue NV,
who said he had been delegated by
Is, boat owners from st. Jeromes
Greek, Md.
Mr.. Harden's letter. read at the
hearing, said: These people depend
on Chesapeake Bay for their liveli-
hood and they feel as though they
should not be deprived of any part
of the bay
Navy spokesman made it clear no
large live ammunition will be used
on the range. They said the reason
they cannot shift the range to the
Atlantic Ocean is because expensive
Photographic observation equipment
has been erected on the shore line of
the station to observe new aerial
ordnance.
Denies Damage to Oysters.
Capt. T. A. Turner, station COM
manding officer, in letter, denied
fish or oysters would be damaged or
the waters polluted. He declared
there would be minimum of inter-
ference with civilian navigation.
Another station officer, 1t. Comdr
c. E. Silver, said the Navy will con-
tinue to test new equipment on the
range. with dummy bombs and
rockets without war heads used.
In answer to Theodore F. Menske
st. Jeromes Greek area real estate
man, Col. Wolfe said the entrance
to those waters is neither restricted
nor prohibited. 1t. Comdr Silver
observed the station will continue
to use its bathing beaches, which
are nearer the targets than anybody
else.

Virginia Fiscal Board
To Sample Localities
School Need Views
BY the Associated Press

RICHMOND, Va, Jan, 8.-The
Virginia Commission on State and
Local Revenues and Expenditures
will gather from a cross section of
State localities its own idea of
school construction needs-recently
reported at an estimated 1896, 0OO,-
600 for the next 10 years.
State Senator Garland Gray of
WaVerly, chairman of the group.
said yesterday an announcement of
who will make the spot check prob
ably will be made next week.
The legislative study group-cur-
rently engaged in a broad inquiry
into tax and financial questions
voted to retain an expert consult
ant for the survey.
Put at 1896, 100000.
The decision to study school needs
came at the groups first meeting
since State Board of Education
report in November said that city
and county authorities estimated
their needs at the 1896, 900, 900 figure.
Some members of the commission.
lit was reported, thought some of
the cost estimates received might
be excessive. The official position
of the commission, however, was to
withhold an opinion of the needs
report until the commission has
completed It's own survey.
Yesterdays decision called for an
independent analysis of school con-
struction needs in typical cities and
counties over the State. Details as
to which and how many localities
remain to be worked out, but the
study will amount to a comprehen-
sive sampling of all types of local
tiles.
To Pick Typical Areas.
The typical areas will be selected
in cooperation with consultants
from the University of Virginia's
Bureau of Public Administration,
the agency retained last year to do
the bulk of the commissions spade
work in research and finding.
Because the bureaus time and
personnel are limited, it could not
undertake the school inquiry, and
concurred in the proposal to call in
another agency. Senator Gray said.

Thursday, October l3. l949

The teeming South China city of Canton-firSt to feel the impact of the modern western world more than 100 years ago-Was aban- doned today by its Nationalist de- lenders to the advancing com- munist armies of Mao Tze-Tung.
 Telephoned reports to Hong Kong said all plans for organized resistance had ended in the city of a million inhabitants, which un- Ii la few days ago was the refugee Nationalist capital.
 The Nationalists have moved their falling fortunes to their war time refuge at Chungking, which is to be proclaimed the new pro- Visional capital on Saturday.
 It was not immediately clear whether the 8O,0O0 troops i nthe Canton area-their number is ex- pected to be swelled by 40,000 fleeing army and civilians-had taken up new defense positions or were scurrying for escape routes.
 It had been the Nationalist plan to evacuate these troops to the saf- ety of Formosa but now their chances of escape by sea appeared slight because of the lack of ship ping.
 Communists reported smashing victories northweste of Canton and said four Nationalist divisions were shattered in battles southwest of Hengyan. The communists were within 30 miles of Canton.

Judge Sentences ) Defense Attorneys
 For Contempt

American communist leaders to- day were convicted of conspiring to teach the forcible overthrow of the United States government.
 Immediately after the verdict, five defense attorneys and one of the defendants were convicted of contempt of court.
 Eugene Dennis, general secre- tary of the communist party, who acted as his own counsel, was the defendant judged in contempt.
 The five attorneys convicted of contempt were Harry Sacher of New York, Richard F. Gladstein of San Francisco, Louis F. McCabe of Philadelphia, George w. Croc- kett, Jr., Negro, of Detroit, and Abraham J. Isserman of New York.
 Dead silence followed. The de- fendants sat impassive Borman then boiled the jurors. That took eight minutes.
 Defense attorney Richard P. Gladsstein then asked the court to inquire if each juror had consid- cred the evidence separately as it applied to each defendant.
 Federal Judge Harold R. Medina declined the request. "I have ex- amined the rules and find they make no provision for such an in terrogation," eh said.
 Then, Medina thanked the jur- ors, eight women and four men.
 CT have already thanked you in my charge" he said. "You have performed a service here and de- serve thanks for your careful att tention to your duties.'
 "Before I discharge you" the judge said, "I would like to tell you a few things. I need not tell you the importance of this case, as stressed by counsel for both sides. I tell you now when you leave here do not discuss with anyone, about this case, about the deliberation, about anything that has to do with the case from the beginning to end. Do not dis cuss the case with relatives or or members of the press, writers or anyone who seeks to elicit from you any in- formation about the case"
 Besides Dennis the defendants in the trial were:
 Jacob Stachel, 48, director of the propaganda and education di-. vision.
 Gilbert Green, 43. Illinois chair man.
 John Gates, 36, editor of The Daily Worker.
