Baptist Assembly Told
OF Worlds Spiritual Need
BY the Assoeiotsd Pres

MASSANETTA SPRINGS, Va.
Aug. 6.-Delegates attending the
Baptist Assembly here today were
challenged by the dire need of the
world for material and spiritual
help.
DR.. E. L. Dakin, Church con-
sultant of Care of New York, said
I'VE cannot stunt heiuperitors OF
tomorrow-the children who one
day will set with ours around the
conference table. We must feed
and clothe them now. We are the
only one who can rescue the ba-
bies who will grow up in the world
for which we fought"
At the evening session. the Rev.
Fon H. Scofield of Richmond told
how the Southern Baptist Foreign
Mission Board is seeking to meet
these needs all over the world.
He said civilizations have been
shaken in the past decade and that
age-old ideas have been tested and
found wanting. Christian mis-
sions offer to the nations the ans
wer in their search for new ideas
upon which to rebuild their shat
tered countries. he said.

Falls Church Accepts
Transfer Of ! Schools
From Fairfax County

The Falls Church School Board
has accepted an offer of the Fair
fax County School Board to turn
over Madison Elementary School
and its annex, Jefferson, to the
city.
DR.. Joseph w. Seay, acting
chairman of the Falls Church
Board. said terms of the transfer
will be negotiated by the two
boards.
A court decision on whether the
county must turn over two newer
schools. Oak Street Elementary
and Falls Church High. to the
city is expected to be handed down
before the end of September.
Judge c. G. Quesenbery of
Waynesboro. who heard the case
in Fairfax Circuit Court July e.
took the question under advise
ment, but said he did not believe
there is any Virginia statute which
would force the county to give
up the two schools.
Creation of a separate Falls
Church school district was ap-
proved June 2 by Judge Quesen-
berry. who held that 1912 act of
the Legislature forbidding a
separate school district for Falls
Church was unconstitutional.
The city school board has au-
thorized Architect John Graham.
jr., to make recommendations on
or before August II regarding
repairs to the city schools which
would make them entirely safe, -
Mr.. Seay reported.
John L. Hanson of Sleepy Hol-
low was asked to submit plans
for improving grounds of the two
schools.

'0wner Plans 10 Raze
Unsafe Buildings;
Sentencing Put Off

A property owner convicted of
renting II unsanitary and unsafe
dwellings in Alexandria is to be-
gin proceedings tomorrow to have
most of them torn down.
This was agreed in Alexandria
Civil and Police Court yesterday
after Judge James r. Duncan
postponed sentencing Robert Sis
son. 81. of Morrisville. Va. until
August Is.
Judge Duncan said the health
and building code violations had
to be stopped. He said conditions
at the houses could cause disease
Judge Duncan said the principal
health menace could be met if
the owner would connect each
home with the city sewer.
Attorney Franklin P. Backus
who represented Mr.. Sisson, said
it would be impractical for the
owner to connect sewers to the
houses because it appears impos-
sible to put them in good living
condition. He said Mr.. Sissor
would rather put the people out
and tear down the houses.
Mr.. Sisson. through his attorney
agreed to file a petition with the
area rent office tomorrow for per-
mission to tear down the houses
City Attorney Joseph M. Pancoast
and Mr.. Backus said John A
Sieber. an attorney with the area
rent Office, told them permission
could be granted in seven days
After permission is granted. ii
will be necessary to start eviction
proceedings against the tenants.
Judge Duncan suggested city
officials meanwhile figure out what
to do with the more than 10C
people who live in the condemned
houses. He said it may be neces-
sary for the city to put up tents
and to provide central water and
sanitary facilities for them.

Republican candidate for the
governorship of Virginia will get
more than 100000 votes in the
November election, Tyrrell Krum
of Vienna, State manager for
the Republican nominee, Walter
Johnson. said today.
Mr.. Krum made this prediction
as he and Mr.. johnson passed
through Richmond enroute to
the State convention of the
American Legion in Danville.
While in Richmond, the two
Republicans announced tentative
plans for a meeting of the COP
State Central Committee in Will
liamsburg August 20 to make
campaign plans and draft the
party's platform.
They Will Troop to Polls.
Mr.. Krum repeated previous
statements that the small Repub-
lican vote in last Tuesdays pri-
mary is not an indication Of the
party's strength in Virginia.
He said Republicans stayed
home because there was no con-
test for the gubernatorial nomina-
ton but that the November 8
election will find them trooping
to the polls.
From Waynesboro, Guy L. Ry-
man. publicity chairman of the
Virginia Young Democrats. urged
the clubs to increase their efforts
in a membership drive and add to
their rosters before the State con-
vention August 19 and 20 at Old
Point Comfort.
Early Caucus Asked.
Mr.. Ryman said a large men,
bership would give the club more
voting power at the convention.
Mr.. Ryman, also chairman of the
7th District Young Democratic
Club, asked club presidents to
have their caucus 10 days before
the State convention date.
In Abingdon, Democrats of
Washington County and Bristol
nominated Keys S. Bordwine of
Abingdon and Stuart Carter of
Bristol for the House of Delegates.
The nominations were by ac-
ckamation by a well ATTENDED con-
vention that paid tribute to "the
excellent services performed by
our three distinguished and able
Representatives in the House and
Senate, George M. Warren. Stuart
Carter and j. Watt Gray.
Mr.. Bordwine succeeds Mr.. Gray
as the county nominee.

a trouble makers head would be
shaved and his heart examined
to see if it could stand a beating
to be followed by a diet of breao
and water in the dungeon
This kind of treatment is out
and for good" Mr.. Eckenrode
stated. There is no corpora
punishment-no restricted diet"
The institution, which lies or
a 395-acre tract at Bladensburs
road and North Dakota avenue
NE. is the only Federal training
school for boys. Offenders have
been sent to the school by Juve-
nile Court authorities. One-thire
of the $40 to $50 boys are from
the District and the remainder
from States in which they com.
mitted a Federal offense.
The school. under the contro
of the Justice Departments Blu.
reau of Prisons, treats it's boy.

as affording individual psychiatrie
treatment.
why set boy, whose dislike
of school in many cases led to his
delinquency, to adding. subtract
ing, multiplying and dividing set:
of meaningless numbers?" Mr.
Eckenrode asked.
He pointed out that arithmetic
for example, is taught a paint
shop trainee, who learns to figure
the area of wall surface in a room
how much paint would be required
to cover it and the cost of the
paint needed for the job.
Since most the boys, 13 to 1e
years old, cannot work with ideas
over an extended time. they
are given an activity release
through handicraft and art. in
Guiding a finger painting class.
1T might be woven rug. a
copied picture or a wooden toy,
Mr.. Eckenrode stressed. "but
often it is the first thing a boy
has made completely on his own
initiative"
Try to Change Attitude.
The school faculty is more
interested in changing attitude
than in teaching the classics
or factual information, Harold
E. Hegstrom. superintendent
stressed. All training is done or
an individual basis after three.
week period OF orientation, Mr.
Hegstrom continued.
This period is half diagnosis.
c. R. Hagan, assistant superin-
tendent pointed out. 1--WE learn
about the boy and then he learns
about us and the physical layout
of the school,"
Part of a boys day is spent

of advantages to the plan. Under
his proposal the chamber would be
a part of the trade body, while at
the same time retaining its ident-
ity as the Wheaton Retail Mer-
chants and Professional Mems Di-
vision.
The merger would place the
Wheaton members in similar
position to that occupied by the
Retail Merchants of Silver Spring.
Mr.. Brechner cited the advant-
ages in having a larger group to
push improvements in the area.
He calls the step a logical de-
velopment" since Wheaton now is
a part of the Silver Spring taxing

full trainees.
Often a group of small boys in
white T shirts and khaki pants
are seen leaving one of the five
living cottages" large red brick
structures pleasing to the eye
with an instructor. They are
going "on job" perhaps to take
care of some electrical or plumb
ing problem in one of the school
buildings. The boys do their own
cooking, laundry and canning and
work a farm. which produces a
good part of their food.
The only segregation at the
school is in the sleeping quarters
Two of the cottages are designated
for the Negro boys. The training
of these boys also is planned tc
be in line with work they can enter
in the community.
Although most Of their labor
goes into maintaining the institu-
ton. the two most sought after
courses by the boys are auto me-
chanics and business machine
training.

The boys work intently on a cal
the very machine, in many
cases, involved in their Fedora

to be released, are taught how tc
drive a car. Boys who have COM
pleted the business machine
course leave the institution to take
jobs in their field. They otter
report their progress back to the
school.
Currently the Business Machine
classes are doing a card-indexine
job for the Metropolitan Police.
The average time spent by the
boys in the general school pro-

average stay at the institution il
just less than a year. Thus. it is
important to work fast-to sugar.
coat education until the boy finds
that learning isn't as painful az
he thought.
Every boy leaves the school with
a plan-or he doesn't leave. There
is a plan for where he will live

The man who's probably proud
est of the institution, started by
President Lincoln as the House
of Refuge in Georgetown. is James
