One of the more active organlza-
tions in Milton, The Business Mems
Association, have completed their
plans for Santa's arrival on Saturday
Nov. Goth. The Old Fellow will an
rive by plane and will be met out at
Draper's Field, South Of Milton, by

the fire engine with the school band

helpers will distribute gifts among
the younger folks.
Parents are urged to come out
with the young and look over the
many bargains and Christmas gifts

Hampton of St. Johns Episcopa
Church. There then followed a
open discussion in which all person
were invited to participate.

of the 10 o'clock curfew, it was de
cided that the law will still be en-
forced until the group may arrive {

A Prosecutors Obligations

Those who believe that a prosecutors
Job is done when he has sent man to
jail should familiarize themselves with the
contrary view held by States Attorney
Gwynn Bowie Of Prince Georges County,
Maryland. Mr.. Bowie is q conscientious
prosecutor. In letter to Governor Lane
he helped to convict in an attempted rape
case he advanced the theory that States
attorneys obligations with respect to
administration of justice are not neces-
sarily fulfilled when trial ends"
It was in pursuance of that theory that
Mr.. Bowie investigated very carefully some
new information in the assault case that
came to his attention after he had sent
the local pair to prison for ive-year terms.
The information was volunteered by wit
nesses who sought him out after reading
accounts of the trial in the newspapers.
The new testimony tended to corroborate
the stories told by the accused men in
denying the charges against them, namely,
that the woman who accused them had
accompanied them to an inn and then
disappeared. The woman had disputed
this account Had this corroborative testi-
mony been available at the trial, Mr.. Bowie
told the Governor, both defendants would
have been acquitted. He therefore, with
the approval of the trial judge, urged
Governor Lane to pardon the two men.
Mr.. Bowie's fortnight action is remi-
niscent of the oft-cited Harold Israel case
at Stamford, Connecticut, which brought
national acclaim to former Attorney
General Homer Cummings when he was
States attorney for Fairfield County. In
that case, around which Hollywood built
the movie Boomerang" Mr.. Cummings
started out to prosecute Mr.. Israel for
murder but ended by asking the court to
dismiss the murder charge. He convinced
the court that number of eyewitnesses
who positively identified" the defendant
before a grand jury had been mistaken.
The Prince Georges County case properly
belongs in the same category.

Dual Recognition

Although the full or "de jure" diplomatic
recognitions extended by the United States
to the governments of Israel and Trans
Jordan were technically separate actions,
their simultaneous announcement by the
administration was not accidental. They
are Joint moves in a policy designed to
stabilize the relations Of the new Jewish
state and the least intransigent OF It's
Arab neighbors. It likewise indicatessa a
convenience of American and British poll
cies in this respect, even though identity
of views between Washington and London
on the larger aspects of the Israeli-Arab
problem may not yet have been attained
Our recognition of Israel was forecast
last October, when the President promised
that it would be extended, once Israel had
held free elections to choose parliament
and establish as permanent the provisional
regime then in effect. Those elections were
held a week ago and resulted In an en-
phatic Endorsement of the administration
headed by David Ben Gurion, who has
promptly announced continuation of his
moderate policies. Extremist opponents of
the administration Jared badly at the
polls. The Communists got only about
per cent of the total while the ultrana
tionalists obtained less than 2 per cent.
Those zealots entertained expansionist am
biuons which rendered impossible any
understanding with the Arabs. They
claimed as a minimum not only the whole
of Palestine but also Trans-Jordan, refusing
to recognize as valid the latter's separation
from the original British mandate over
both countries.
Our de jure recognition of Trans Jordan
Is implicitly veto on any such expansion
list ideas, together with our assurance to
Trans-Jordan that it's independence and
course, is the attitude of Buitain, the spon-
sor and protector of Trans-Jordan. The
recent landing of British troops at the
Trans-Jordan port Of Aqaba, on the Red
Sea just east of the disputed district Of
Palestine known as the Negeb, was an en-
phatic warning that no Israeli encroach-
ment on Trans-Jordan would be tolerated.
But such ultranationaliSm forms no
part of the program of the present Israeli
government. And the attitude of King
Abdullah, the ruler of Trans Jordan, is and
has been more favorable to an understand
ing with Israel than any of the other Arab
states. Our dual recognition of both gov
ernments implies that, by recognizing their
political maturity, we expect them to dem
onstrate that quality in their dealings with
each other.
The chief current stumbling block to
peace In the Middle East is not the issue

A Reasonable Ruling

The rules adopted by the Commissioners
for admission Of INDECENT patients to
private hospitals are both reasonable and
practicable 1t Is regrettable that there
has been so much delay in reaching a
decision In this matter, for in the absence
of nberalized ruling the hospitals have
been forced to regard indigents as paupers
in the narrowest sense. Yet 1t was
apparently the intention of Congress that
the private hospitals should render the
same services as are available to under
privileged patients at Gallinger, the mu-
nicipal hospital. HEEH
But, since last July, the Health Depart
ment has been forced to refuse to pay hos
pitals for care of any patients who could
afford to pay any part of their bills, bow
ever small such contributions might be.
Gallinger has accepted such patients with
out question, provided they met certain
standards of eligibility. These standards
were based on total income and number OF
dependents. This yardstick now has been
approved for guidance of nine private
hospitals which have been authorized to
accept emergency INDECENT cases. The
hospitals will be reimbursed by the District
for such public services.
Thus, the voluntary hospitals finally
know where they stand in the matter of
hospitalizng indigents and the program
adopted by Congress can be carried out
without the confusion which has stymied
1t to date. The eligibility rules announced
by the Commissioners will protect the
interests not only of the beneflciaries Of
the disqualification plan but Of the public
whose taxes defray the costs. The inter-
ests of the public must be further protected,
of course, in the administration of the
program. II the privileges are abused by
patients who benefit from them, If they
fail to meet promptly-or deliberately
evade-their obligations under the plan,
Congress Is likely to order the whole
system abandoned. And without District
aid the already deficit-harassed hospitals
cannot afford to give their services to
the needy.

Mrs. Williams and Miss Boardman
To the Editor Of The Star:

was formerly the private sanitarium Of DR..
Henry Fry. When he departed, it was turned
into very nice boarding house and I visited
1t frequently as my aunt, Mrs. Lucy Page stelle.
lived there. She built the adjacent apartment
houses, and she established the restaurant.
Miss Mabel Boardman Of the Red Cross is

Real Estate Tax Observations

To the Editor OF The Star:
was interested, as always In your chart
January 2s-illustrating again our shrinking
taxable real estate. But as always, these charts
are over -simplidcations. They are based upon
crude statistics. They give an impression that
the nontaxable area Is dead weight upon the
taxable area. OF course, 1t is not.
But more important, they give an impression
that all the taxable area Is supporting in
the sense that it pays its full share of munich
pal expenses. OF course. 1t does not. A very
large part Of 1t Is subsidized by another part
and by taxes other than those on real estate.
Several years ago cities and towns along the
Connecticut shore of Long Island Sound OBJ
jected to the building Of many privately owned
houses costing 5000 on the score that taxes
on them would not pay their share Of the cost
Of schools. police, fire protection, health and
other municipal services would it be possible
for John W. Thompson, jr., to determine the
assessed value of D. c. dwelling that pays in
taxes at 81 q hundred its share In the cost Of
our municipal government? guess is that
1t would be at least 5000. Therefore. all dwell
ings, including each apartment In multifamily
dwellings, assessed at less than that are sub
sidized. - .rt,e1
Having done this, Mr.. Thompson could then
divide the solid black lines Of taxable" real
estate into three parts; that which pays more
than its share. that which pays its share and
that which is subsidized. il.

Confidence in the President

NoHnuSHSS III uIS AieSIoSht
TO the Editor Of The Star:
The Star recently published two letters that
directed my attention to the willingness Of
people to advance adverse criticism Zone con-
demned President Trumans attitude toward
Southern Governor, and the other con-
demned the action of the Police Force on
Inauguration Day..
These letters. think were characteristic of
the attitude OF the general public always
fault finding. But there is no man who is
infallible. should think that in such critical
times as those in which we live, we should
offer only constructive criticism, not destruc-
tive.
We, the people of the United States, have
chosen MI. Truman as our leader for period
Of four years, and believe it to be our duty
to give him our complete support.
