BILOXI, Miss. Nov. 22.-James
F.. Byrnes. former Secretary OF
State, made a sharp attack on
Government fiscal policies last
night and called for a drop in
taxes and the national debt.
In his second assault on the
Truman administration. he told
the Southern Governors Confer
ence that Federal taxes and the
public debt constitute the real
trouble now besetting this country
The cure, added the former ad-
ministration stalwart, was to be
found neither in a larger public
debt nor in a heavier tax load, but
he saw no immediate remedy.
| Deficit spending will continue,
he declared.
Urges Change in Thinking.
Mr.. Byrnes' first attack on the
administration came in speech
several months ago at Washington
and Lee University. There, he
charged the Federal Government
with "statism." with taking over
more and more the powers and
perogatives of local governments.
Last night he told the Southern
Governors:
1--WE should devote to cutting
expenditures some Of the thought
we are devoting to taxing and
borrowing. But cutting expendi-
lures is not seriously considered
in the executive departments and
new taxes will not be seriously
considered in Congress. So deficit
spending will continue.
Big Government Dangerous.
big Government Is more dan
gerous than big business. Little
governments can regulate big busi-
ness but 1t is difficult to
regulate big government.
"The spenders, while deploring
deficit spending, assert as an ex-
cuse that there was deficit spending
during the Roosevelt administra-
ton. but. who can forget
that in 1888 the banks of the Ma
tion were closed, farmers whose
mortgages were foreclosed were
deserting the farms. factories were
idle and the unemployed walked
the streets hungry?
only a spender with no sense
of responsibility could fail to see
the difference" said the former
Supreme Court Justice. To-day
we have 'unexampled prosperity.

Montgomery Council
Pledged 10 Full Study
Of Apartment zoninq

The Montgomery County Coun-
ell will not be rushed into adop-
ton Of any master plan which
materially enlarges apartment
house zoning in the Bethesda
Chevy Chase area, Frederic p. Lee,
council president. said last night.
Mr.. Lee gave this assurance to
members Of the Bethesda Chevy
Chase Branch Of the American
Association Of University Women
ut q meeting In AL Saints Church,
Chevy Chase Circle.
A series Of public hearings will
be held before the council takes
any action on the apartment house
zoning enlargement proposed by
the Maryland National Capital
Park and Planning Commission
Mr.. Lee said.
Speaking for himself. Mr.. Lee
said he believed q majority of the
people of the community do not
want to turn Bethesda Chevy
Chase into a second Washington
city full of apartments. The
council. he said, will study the
problem from every angle. before
reaching q decision.
There are q great many govern
mental agencies over which the
council has little or no control" "
Mr.. Lee asserted. He cited schools.
public health and assessment,
which are tied up with the State
system, and the Liquor Control
Board, the Park and Planning
Commission. and the Washington
Suburban Sanitary Commission,
controlled by the Governor.
Asked how council control of the
latter three agencies could be &C
compliShed, Mr.. Lee asserted:
by constantly demanding con-
troll from the State Assembly. Per-
sistence will win out in the long
run. Right now the Assembly
takes the attitude that Montgom-
cry County doesn't really want
what it recently got in the way of

will be sought for this project.
/ Poster Prepared.
4. Posters-At least IS diagrams
of the orchestra, picturing the
various instruments, and large
enough to hang on the wall, now
are being prepared for early dis
tribution.
S. Program planning
tee leaders hope to build up
closer cooperation with school
music administrators and teach
ers, with the aim of making the
concerts Of maximum educational
benefit.
s. Attendance at performances
This year, for the first time. no
schoolchild will pay to attend the
auditorium performances at which
broadcasts will originate. Ever
since the first children's concerts
in 1892, small admission charge
has been required. Last year it
was 40 cents. This winter, six
sponsors-five of them business
firms-are paying the expenses OF
the performances, and the au-
dience will be admitted free. At
tendance will be rotated by schools,
as in the past.
School and symphony officials
alike are elated at the new plans.
The school authorities. before the
project was launched, already had
initiated a study to see what could
be done to revitalize their ele-
mentary-level music study, which
has been handicapped by a serious
teacher shortage. Elementary
pupils in the District get no more
than a half. hour of music in
struction a month. With the
broadcast concerts, school officials
see the symphony playing a vital
role in music appreciation instruc-
ton.
This will bring great enrich
ment into the lives of our chill
dren." DR.. Corning declared last
night.
Sponsorship Suggested.
On the orchestra's side, Con-
ductor Mitchell. as early as last
January, labeled music a "step-
child" in the Districts school
curriculum and indicated he would
exert himself for improvement.
One result has been the business
sponsorship of the concerts. which
he suggested.
Women's committee leaders plan
to visit Cleveland this winter to
study the organization Of chill
dren's concerts there, Mrs. Ege
said.
The other members of Mrs
Eyes committee are Mrs. Bour-
bon Dawes, Mrs. Robert Sher and
Mrs. Dabney Jarman.
The opening children's concert
on December 2 will be played at
Central High School. These are
the other dates and schools sched-
uled: January 6. Armstrong; jan
uary 13. Mckinley; January 20

between the children of Israel and
the children of Ammon. Howbeit
the king of Ammon hearkened not
to the words of Jephthah.
Then the Spirit of the Lord
came upon Jephthah, and he
vowed unto the Lord, If thou de-
liver the children of Ammon into
mine hands, whatsoever cometh
forth of my house to meet me,
when I return in peace, will offer
up for burnt Offering.
So Jephthah passed over unto
the children OF Ammon to fight
them; and the Lord delivered
them into his hands.
And Jephthah came to Mizpeh
unto his house, and his daughter
came out to meet him with tim
brelS and with dances: and she
was his only child. And he rent
his clothes. and said. Alas, my
daughter! thou art one Of them
that trouble me; for I have opened
my mouth unto the Lord, and I
cannot 60 back. And she said. My
father. if thou hast opened thy
mouth unto the Lord. do to me
according to that which hath pro-
ceeded out of they mouth. And she
said. Let this be done for me: let
me alone two months, that may
60 up and down upon the noun
tains. and bewail my yirginity.
And he sent her away.
And at the end Of two months.
she returned unto her father, who
did with her according to his vow;
and she knew no man. And it was
a custom in Israel. that the
daughters Of Israel went yearly to
lament the daughter Of Jephthah

And the children of Israel assem-

Now Jephthah was a mighty
