gan playing the piano at the age

critics as one of the country's most
outstanding young concert artists.
Both are daughters Of the Rev.
and Mrs. S. C. Walker of this city.
Mercedes is fast approaching
the prominence Of her famous
sister. So impressed with her ,tal-
ent is a group Of white southern
music lovers, that they have decid-
ed to back the young pianist in
securing audiences and %opportuni-
ties her ability deserves.
Miss Walker received her first
musical instrument from her
mother. During her childhood, her
father moved his family to the
Crescent City, where she entered
Gilbert academy. She became a
scholarship student at the Chicago
Musical college after attending
Northwestern university.
In her junior year, Miss Wal
ker appeared at Chicago's histor-
ic Orchestra hall and received eight
curtain calls for her rendition of
Saint-Saens &C Minor Piano Con-
certo." Later, she was sponsored
by the New Orleans Philharmonic
society which gave her two
scholarships.
Since her first public appear
ance at the age of seven, Miss
Merceders Walker has come a
long way toward making a note
worthy contribution in the field
Of music, comparable to that of
her sister, Margaret, in the field
Of literature.

Nevada's Senator McCarran, al
chairman of the Senate judiciary

Mississippi senator, James o. East
land head Of the subcommittee
considering anti-lynching and
other civil rights legislation. Thus
were civil rights measures axed
from January to October by the
Republican Dixiecrat : Southwest
axis.
Liberals in Congress, Democrat
and Republican alike, fought hard
for housing, minimum wage and
other welfare legislation. They won
a partial victory. But liberals OBJ
jectly surrendered onthe question
of equal rights to housing and ed
ucation for Negroes. When an
amendment to prohibit segrega-
ton in federaly-aided housing was
before the Senate, liberals oppos-
ed it. They defended their OPP
position on the dubious ground
that the inclusion of an anti-seg-
regation provision might result in
the defeat of the housing bill.
Again, when an amendment to
prohibit segregation in federally-
aided education was before the
Senate, liberals opposed it. Dixie
Gratis W~hOuSually shout their heads
off in defense of segregation just
lolled about looking happy while
the liberals took it upon them
selves to battle against the pro-
vision
These same liberals will make
a speech at the drop of a hat for
''civil rights" But they are easily,
all too easily, frightened by the
fear that positive espousal of civil
rights may endanger their social
welfare projects. Enactment of
such legislation is imperilled by
this fear !.

County Heads Will Get
U|timatum on School
Program in ST. Marys
SpeeioI Dispatch TO The Stor

LEONARDTOWN, Md, Jan. 21.-
St. Marys County today found its
proposed s1,ooo,ooo public school
building program at the ultimatum
stage.
The County Board of Education
has unanimously decided to de-
mand that the Board of County
Commissioners approve a $55O,000
bond issue to finance the first half
of the 10-year plan.
Their demand will be presented
to the commissioners Tuesday.
If the commissioners fail to act
favorably, the countys legislators
will be asked to introduce a bill
which would make issuance of the
bonds mandatory.
Bond Issues Authorized.
Authority to float a 100000 bond
issue for school building purposes
was granted by the 1947 General
Assembly Voters at the last elec-
ton approved an additional $780,
900 issue. Both measures left the
matter within the discretion of the
commissioners.
St. Marys County has never sold
bonds to finance a public school
program. It is the only county in
the State which has not done So
In announcing the projected
move, j Claude Johnson, presi-
dent, and the two other members,
Edward Thomas and Mrs. Maude
Gardiner, dispelled rumors that the
Board of Education was divided on
the matter.
The board reached it's conclusion
after a meeting here wednesday
night with committee representing
the St. Marys County Council Of
Parent Teacher Associations. w. B.
Duke, chairman of the group, re-
viewed school construction records
for the last three years.
Reports "No Progress"
"It was period OF no progress,
he declared.
Responsibility for the delay in
starting the building program was
placed squarely on the county COM
missioners when M. Merven Dean
asked Mr.. Johnson:
will you say that the county
commissioners are responsible for
delaying the school program by not
making the S550,000 available?"
That is correct" MIR. johnson
replied.
S350,00 Seen as Assured.
Miss Lettie NJ. Dent. the only
woman county school superinten-
dent in Maryland, attended the
meeting but declined to comment.
Sources close to the county gov
ernment said, however, that they
felt sure it was the intention of the
commissioners to issue bonds for
s350,00O because that has been ap-
proved by the voters"
No forecast was forthcoming, how
ever, as to whether the other $780,
900 would be approved.

Court Would 'Sterilize'
Mother in Neglect Death
BY the Associated Press

BALTIMORE, Jan. 2l.-Judge
Robert France expressed regret
yesterday that he could not order
sterilization for 19-year-old un-
married mother whose baby died Of
malnutrition and gross neglect"
Mrs. Angelina Herd had been
charged with murder in the baby's
death last November. Judge France
found there was not sufficient proof
of criminal negligence to sustain
that or a manslaughter charge.
The woman testified that the
six week old baby could not retain
it's milk. On the day the baby died
she had wrapped it in a blanket
and carried it in her arms into a
movie. When she got home, she
said, she realized that something
was wrong.
Judge France learned that it was
her third child.
Il think she is guilty Of gross
negligence, but she's not on trial
for that" he said.
Il think sterilization should be
brought into use in this case, but
that's not up to me either

300 Men Follow Glory Path With Brooms to Clean Streets

AS the sun went down at the
end of a perfect inaugural day, a
weary band of 300 men moved onto
the Nations path of glory-to clean
up the mess.
They had started the day at 6
am, with hand brooms and me-
chanical street f1ushers, and as a
result of their labors the long
parade route at noon had never
cleaned brighter And the street
cleaners of the District Department
of Sanitation we're justifiably proud
of the job they had done.
But Is minutes after the last
marching unit had praded down
Capitol Hill, the street cleaners re-
turned in force and surveyed the
task ahead. Only a weary housewife
could appreciate the heartbreak In
what they saw. The once spotless
parade route was now Uttered with
newspapers, orange peels, half
eaten sandwiches and other debris
scattered by the huge throng.
I've never seen such a mess" I"
said Inspector Francis B. Stubbs,
as he sent a crew of sweepers into
action. I've been in the Depart
ment of Sanitation for 81 years, and
this is the worst I've ever seen.
Worse than the mess we had after
the King and Queen of England
were here. Worse even than when
we used to have all those horses in
parades."
AS protection against the cold, all
of the spectators came literally sup
piled with newspapers to sit on and
to wrap under their clothing. These
were scattered all over the street
and the grass of the Capitol
grounds. Thousands of broken bas-
kets and boxes on which spectators
had sat and stood were left behind.
The first move of the street clean
ers was to wet down the parade
route with flushing trucks to keep
the paper from blowing away. Then
came the sweepers and shovelers,
accompanied by trucks. Along the
sidewalk under the stands and over
the grassy areas went men with big
burlap bags to pick up paper.
Ninety-six truck loads of paper
and other debris were hauled away
from the parade route and burned.
The men went over the parade
route twice, and it was 8 pm.
is hours after most Of them re-
ported for work-before the streets
again looked clean.
Smaller crews will go over the
route again today to touch up the
spots where weary men may have
been a little careless.
While the street cleaners worked,
other Sanitation Department crews
took down the steel posts and cables
which held back the crowds.
Still other men, employed by the
National Seating Co., piled more
than 10000 folding chairs into
trucks and hauled them away from
the Capitol grounds.
Today crews will start tearing
down the grandstands, a job which
will stretch into next week.
