BY Baltimore Gunman
As Several Look On
BY the Associated Press

BALTIMORE, Jan. 15.-A gun
man held up a North Baltimore
savings and loan association last
night, firing at two pursuers as he
escaped with a waste basket con-
tanning $7,40O.
| The robbery was committed In
view of six patrons and several
passersby who gathered outside the
Hamilton Federal Savings & Loan
Association.
Norwood v. Stansfield, vice presi-
dent of the institution, told police a
slight, mustached man broke into
his Office shortly before pm. while
he was comforting with two patrons.
Ordered to Fill Bag.
"This is a holdup," Mr.. Stansfleld
said the man announced as he -four
ished a pistol.
AS Mr.. Stanstield raised his hands,
the bandit told him to lower them
He waver a paper bag and ordered
Mr.. Stansfield to fill it with money
With the gunman close behind,
Mr.. Stansfield went to several cashier
booths and at each stop the employees
were handed the bag and told to
fill 1t up"
j. Clifford Sener, the assistant

counted some money. He said he

Gunman Makes Escape.
At this point the bandit ordered
him to empty waste basket, scooped
the money into the container and
fled.
Mr.. Stansfield said he tried to
stop the man at the door, but he
bumped his elbow and the gunman
got away. Two other pursuers gave
chase but abandoned the idea when
the bandit fired at them.
Police mistakenly turned up at
another, hank. three blocks down4 the
street and by the time they arrived
at the scene, their. quarry was, gone.

zoping Favor Granted
To Shaw Pulled Back
By County Heads
A prize zoning favor bestowed on

A prize Zoning favor bestowed on
Lacy Shaw, Montgomery County
Democratic leader, by split vote of
the County Commissioners on Tues
day, was pulled back yesterday in
closed session of the outgoing
governing body.
The action represented an abrupt
about face on the part of Charles
H. Jamison, lone Democrat on the
board, and for George C. (Ace)
Esworthy, a Republican who, like
Mr.. Jamison, represents an up
county district. -Four of the five
board members are Republicans.
The commissioners, who have sat
at an interim County Council since
December 2, will go out of Office
next week when the newly elected
council takes over. The zoning ac-
ton involving property owned by
Mr.. Shaw in the MeadoWood de-
velopment on 'Colesville road, was
taken Tuesday at the end of what
had been expected to be the last
meeting Of the commissioners.
Here's What Happened.
Chronologically this is what hap
pened:
The Maryland National Capital
Park and Planning Commission, of
which E. Brooke Lee, head of the
county Democratic organization, is
a member, recommended that the
land in question be rezoned from
residential A to Commercial D. The
recommendation was in a formal
opinion" of the planning group, and
the staff Of the commission, which
usually originates recommendations
to the commission, concurred in this
one.
On December 81, the County Com
missioners rejected the rezoning re-
quest after protests were filed by
scores of area residents. 1t was re-
ported unofhcially that a service
station zWasNAto 10 be .e built on the
property.
On Tuesday, Mr. Jamison, men,
Der of the Lee-Shaw organization,
told the commissioners that because
he had been absent from the De-
cember 81 meeting, he wanted to
record his vote in favor of the
Shaw property rezoning. Mr.. Jami-
son limited his request for a re-
corded vote to the Shaw case al
though "a other petitions involving
other properties were acted on at
the December 81 meeting.
He then moved to rescind the
action and his motion was seconded
by Mr.. Esworthy. who had abstained
from voting at the earlier meeting
Action Held Illegal.
Commissioner Wesley I. Sauter
voted with Mr.. Jamison and Mr.
Esworthy and the denal was re-
scinded, 80, with Brooke Johns
president of the commissioners, and
Commissioner Oliver w. Youngblood
voting in the negative.
Mr.. Jamison then moved that the
Shaw application be approved. The
motion passed. 80, with the same
line up of votes.
The actions were criticized by
President Johns and Mr. Young
blood and the latter said he would
ask Board Counsel F. Barnard Welsh
for an opinion on their legality.
Mr.. Welsh ruled Thursday that
the actions were, in his opinion
illegal. and yesterdays special ses-
sion was called by Mr.. Johns.
On motion of Mr.. Jamison, Sec
onded by Mr.. Youngblood, the Tues
day votes were rescinded automati-
cally returning the property to its
previous residential A status.
The motion was adopted by 40
vote, Mr.. Sauter being absent.

lOUISA'S LETTER

Dear Girls:
heard a friend, several DAYS
ago, laughingly tell of her small
daughters worry over money
matters. 1t seems that the fathers
salary had been cut but that he
was still very comfortably fixed.
The little daughter, however,
had been hearing her parents
discuss the reduction and had
come to the conclusion that the
family were in a terrible state.
Each day when the father came
home to dinner the little girls
first question was, did YOU
make any money today, Daddy?"
Personally, think it was very
unfortunate that she was allowed
to worry over the family finan-
ces SO much. Children worry over
some things great deal more
than grownups do, and this
child's anxiety was so unneces-
sary.
Now, / certainly do not approve
of letting children spend extrava-
gantly and live ahead of the
family budget in order to allow
them to dwell in fools paradise
of luxuries. This is equally as
harmful as making them pinch
pennies when there is no reason
to do so.
remember one woman of my
acquaintance, whose husbands
nose stay to the grindstone and
who was harried and distressed
over bills each month, who let
her children have every desire
granted. They spent more money
and wore finer clothes than
their companions whose families
were far weather. than theirs.
This woman said that she never
discussed whether they could or
could not afford anything with
them as she wanted them to
grow up care-free as regards Ito
finances. That attitude seemed
very, very foolish to me for if
