Mild Earth Tremors
Shake Communities
West of Richmond
BY the Associated Press

DIILWYN, Va, Nov. 27.-Three
Buckingham County communities
-Dillwyn, Arvonia and New Can
ton-were shaken early yesterday
by earth tremors, but no damage
was reported.
Citizens of the area about so
miles west of Richmond said they
felt the mild earthquake about
am. and heard a loud roar as the
tremors apparently travelled from
west to east.
"At first it sounded like dyna-
mite blast" said R. S. Rainey, a
local employe of the State Divi-
sion of War Veterans Claims.
"The first shock was rather vio-
lent. Then there was loud rum
bling as the quake moved from
west to east. -"
Mr.. Rainey said the shock
turned over a silver candlestick
and shook bottles in the medicine
chest"
Plummer Jones of New Canton,
retired Presbyterian minister
who says some Is local quakes
have been felt in recent years, de-
scribed it as "a typical earth
quake-like those that have come
often in the region"

incorporate-to be part of the
county government like Silver
Spring. It was discussed at an
open meeting called by the coun-
Gil. When the citizens realized
some of the tax advantages-es-
pecially the fact they were getting
garbage collection for SO cents a
month against $165 across the
road, they were all for letting
the mayor and town council con-
tinue.
The village limits do not leave
room for expansion like other
communities. Glen Echo has had
a postwar building boom. Three
new houses have gone up.
The largest house in the village
is the Clara Barton house, where
the founder of the American Red
Cross lived from 1892 until her
death in 1912. 1t is a long, white,
weatherboard structure with an
imposing facade, built from the
materials of the Red Cross relief
building put up at Johnstown, Pa,
after the famous flood of 1889. 1t
is occupied by Mrs. Josephine
Franks Noyes, who formerly
helped run the cafeteria of the
Agriculture Department. and her
four sisters.
Glen Echo has Baptist and a
Catholic chapel. There is a new
Episcopal Church, the Church of
the Redeemer, on the other side
of Macarthur Boulevard, but that
is in Fairway Hills, a real estate

Cause Of Explosion
All Electric Station
lin Bethesda SOUGHT

Officials of the Potomac Elec-
trio Power Co. were to meet today
to work out plans for repairing
the company's Bethesda substation
and determine the cause of Sat-
urday's explosion which partially
destroyed the building.
Company experts have said the
blast might have been set of by
lightning which ignited vapor
from leaking insulating oil. The
explosion caused complete power
failure throughout Rockville, Cal
thersburg and Norbeck as we'll as
in parts of Bethesda and Chevy
Chase.
Emergency equipment has been
supplying the area since them
with only one minor interruption
for about two hours yesterday
afternoon, officials said. A blown
fuse shut down service in the
Wheaton and Norbeck areas of
Montgomery County from about
5 to 7:10 pm. before repairs could
be made.
Included in the blackout was
the Montgomery General Hospital
at Sandy Spring, where volun-
teer firemen stood by to supply
power in case of an emergency.
Homes in the Rosemont section
Of Alexandria were blacked out
for about two hours after $50
pm. yesterday by a cable failure
of the Virginia Electric & Power
Co. at Commonwealth avenue and
Mason street. Traffic and street
lights in the downtown area were
temporarily shut off.

New Trial Is Ordered
For GreensviIIe Neqro
On Basis Of Race Bias
BY the Associoted Press

RICHMOND, Nov. 27. - The
Virginia Supreme Court today
reversed the conviction of a
Greensville County Negro who
contended discrimination was
practiced in selecting the jury
which tried him on a murder
charge.
Jurors should be selected as
individuals, on the basis of in
dividual qualifications and not
as members of a race" Justice
Archibald c. Buchanan said in
remanding the case to Green's
vile County Circuit Court for
new trial.
Counsel for >Jodie Bailey ap-
pealed after the Negro was SEN
fenced to life for stabbing L. P.
BrockWell, ST., a white garage
service manager.
The courts unanimous opinion
pointed out that the United States
Supreme Court "has settled be-
yond controversy the proposition
that the exclusion of all Negroes
from the grand jury by which a
Negro is indicted, or from the petit
jury by which he is tried, solely
because of their race or color is
a denial of the equal protection
of the laws guaranteed to him by
the l4th amendment to the Fed
eral constitution.
Bailey's counsel contended the
mans rights were violated be-
cause, it was alleged, Negroes
were Disseminated against wher
the jurors were selected for the
trial. The charge also was made
that for more than 80 years only
white persons had been appointed
as jury commissioners in the
county and that these commission
ers, despite orders to the contrary
had wilfully failed and refused
to place a proper number of COL
ored persons on the jury lists"
Justice Buchanan declared that
in making their lists of qualified
jurors, the jury commissioners
are required by the Constitution
and by Federal statute to do so
without regard to race.

time. He has put a sign Mayor S
Office" over a side door of his little
house-a door which opens on his
living room. After dinner he IS
ready to take care of any official
calls from citizens-but fortunate
ly there are not many. He found
out just the other day that he is
a justice of the peace.
The most difficult problem that
came before the town council
four members and the mayor
during his term of Office was the
Montgomery County Fire Code
Some of the citizens discovered
that because they had leased
rooms in their homes for light
housekeeping, their establishments
were considered apartment
houses" and they would have to
build fire escapes and keep lights
burning in the Railways all night.
The code was finally adopted after
the county fire marshal appeared
before the council and said he
would not be unreasonable in it's
enforcement.

Fire Equipment White.
Principal. social institution of
Glen Echo is it's fire department.
1t is the only fire company in
Montgomery County which has
its equipment painted white. Its
chief, Joseph A. Giammatteo,
brought that about. He pointed
out that white equipment shows
up better at night both on the
road and at a fire.
The company is limited to SO
active members and they all have
to have University of Maryland
diplomas in firef1ghting. Chief
Giammatteo, an accountant with
the Federal Communications
Commission, gives the course. Al
though it is a volunteer fire de-
partment. it has three paid
drivers, one on duty at all times.
Several good stops" have been
made since he has been in the
department, Chief Giammatteo
says modestly-nothing dramatic.
He attributes the stops" to the
speed with which his company
can get to a fire in its area, which
extends far beyond the village
limits. and to the fact that his
boys are well trained. The COM
pany was organized in 1880 aftel
a fire in a small house in Gler
Echo killed afamily Of five.
The fire company has an ambu.
lance which speeds out along the
highways when there are acci-
dents. and a boat. The Glen Echo
volunteer firemen have made a
name for themselves in river
rescues.
All summer long the cries of
happy youngsters being thrilled
on the roller coaster pervade the
Glen Echo air. Residents say they
get used to it-just as people do
who live near the tracks or near
an airport. They say they miss the
joyous sounds after the park
closes down in the fall.
Chief Giammatteo lives across
Macarthur boulevard in Fair
way Hills. But he agrees with Bill
Herson and Mayor Hertstein that
Glen Echo is "the greatest little
town in Maryland"

Campaign 10 Continue
For Arlington Hospital
Enlargement Funds

Even "if it takes two years." Ar
lington Hospital is going to have
a new wing, Administrator John
Anderson declared today.
Mr.. Anderson disclosed that
fund campaign directors and the
hospital Board of Trustees have
made the decision in spite of the
elimination of a $207, 900 grant
under the Hill-Burton Act.
The 90-bed addition will cost
$400, 900, Mr.. Anderson said.
Clarke Daniel, chairman of the
campaign directed originally al
raising matching funds, declared
THE need is so great to the
residents of Arlington, Falls
Church and parts of Fairfax
County that there is no other
course to be taken"
Mr.. Daniel said the drive must
be extended over a longer perioo
because of the larger sum which
must be raised.
During it's early stages, the cam
paign will rely entirely on specia
memorial gifts, unsolicited con-
trlbutions and benefit function.
sponsored by Northern Virginia
groups.
In the spring there will be {
community wide solicitation, h.
said.
A special fund has been created
for contributions and the money
will not be used for other pur.
poses, Mr.. Daniel emphasized.
The 115-bed general hospita
was built and equipped with
Lanham Act funds in 1914 at F..
cost of $661 900. Although tn,
estimated replacement cost il
more than 81 million. according
to Mr.. Anderson, the Government
last year sold it to the non-profi
Arlington Hospital Association fol
$125,000. Already the association
has paid $4,000 of the purchase
price. The balance is to be paic
within the next four years.

Arlington Parents 10 Get
Employment Data Cards

Arlington school authorities to-
day requested all parents of pu-
pills to be on the lookout for par
ent-data cards which are being
sent home by children today and
tomorrow.
Information requested on the
cards is necessary in connection
with the county's application for
Federal construction and main
tenance monies. The only ques-
tions ask whether the parent is
a Federal employe, and, if so,
where he works.
The cards should be returned to
each pupils teacher.
