Law Enforcement Council

District judges have given powerful impetus
to the movement to create District Council on
Law Enforcement to effect better o-ordination of
Washington law enforcement agencies. Judges
of both the District and Municipal Courts are
reported to have Endorsed the plan at confer
ence with the Davis subcommittee investigating
crime in Washington The proposal merits the
support of all authorities engaged in the control
of lawlessness in the District
The judges know the value of round-tabe
discussion of law enforcement problems. The
annual Judicial Conference gives them the op-
portunity to consider mutual problems arising
in the courts. The council plan advocated by
the Davis group would enlarge on the Judicial
Conference idea by bringing together not only
the judges and lawyers but representatives of the
United States Attorneys Office, of the Police
Department and of probation, parole and penal
branches There have been recurrent conflicts
and misunderstanding among these authorities
in times past, many of which probably could
have been averted or ironed out if there had been
a closer liaison system here. The Law Enforce
ment Council would provide this highly desirable
official liaison. If legislation is necessary to Gre
ate it and to give it proper prestige, the next

is not really considered satisfactory. Ed
ucation wants its own TV stations-to
put on its programs in it's own way To-
ward this end, it has stalwart champion
in Commissioner Frieda Hennock, the
only woman on the FEC bench.
Education is asking the FEC to set
aside special channels in the television
band, so that it can avail itself of these
facilities when 1t is able. It wants to
stake out its claim Immediately, SO that
commercial interests will not take over
the entire TV field.
The Commission has prepared q pro-
posed TV ALLEGATION plan, by commune
ties, for the whole Nation. There are
now II TV channels for the country as
a whole. The Commission proposes to
take AZ additional channels "upstairs"
in the ultra high frequencies-to blanket
the entire country. Into this final mosaic
the TV education picture will f1t.
But, some ask, if education has not
been able to get proper funds for mex
pensive frequency modulation stations
in radio, how is it going to get the money
for costly TV?
While there are numerous commercial
television stations in operation through
out the land now. there is only one
educational institution that is full

A Matter of Conscience

This final effort to reach all potential givers
to the Community Chest campaign is based, in
part, on cold statistics.
The goal this year is $4,260,000 In terms of
people who benefit from Chest activities, this
means 284,000-men, women and children.
At the final general report luncheon last
week, there was a deficit in dollarS-$887 000-and
this deficit becomes, in terms of people, 59,180.
Each SIS contributed will reduce by one the
deficit in people. 1t is estimated that there are
ut least 900 citizens of the area who have
not been reached through the regular channels
of solicitation. If it were possible to reach all
Of them, the goal-in money and in people to
be cared for-would be oversubscribed. &c. the
intense activity this week, with telephone
switchboard manned by volunteers and a tele-
phone number-Metropota 6262-which givers
may call and report willingness to subscribe.
But that is only part of the story Of why
this final effort was made.
The other part is that those directing the
campaign, in which 10000 volunteer workers are
engaged, are unwilling to stop before they have
exhausted every available approach to the con-
science Of the community.
Their own consciences would not permit
them to leave anything undone that might be
done. Success would be a glorious triumph.
Failure would be tragic-but not without honor.

This and That .

In reading George Kennedy's excel
lent articles about Washington, we were
reminded of our own childhood in
Columbia Heights.
We lived on Euclid street, not far
from Fourteenth in a fine detached
house with the kitchen on the front,
wonderful library on the back, and a
porch that ran around three sides of the
building.
It was owned by an Englishman we
will call Capt. Caller, although that was
not his name.
He left a wooden leg in the attic, and
thousands of books in the library, the
house having been rented furnished.
OF the furniture we recall nothing,
except the books. There were literally
hundreds of them, in cases that ran to
the ceiling all around.
OF all those books, the only one we
remember today was small one en-
titled What to Do Till the Doctor
Comes" The same title has been used
since, for another manual of the same
sort.
This was detached house, in
neighborhood then part row, part
separated buildings. There was large
vacant lot to the east, with large
billboard fence on the Fourteenth street
side.
The kitchen on the front of the house
was q daring innovation for the early
'90s.

hood, Winnifred. by name, who could
run faster than any boy in the COM
munity.
She was as fleet as a deer, much to
the chagrin Of small boys who repeatedly
tried to outrun her, especially in the
hundred yard dash. 1t was the day of
local sprint champions, and all the small
fry of the city tried their feet at it.
But Winnie always won.
Christmas saw the great linen closet
function as the lair of Santa Claus,
no less.
A small boy of the neighborhood was
induced to come looking for Santa in
the linen room.
In the room. beforehand, two older
miscreants had rigged themselves up
in red robes, and adorned their chins
with great masses of absorbent cotton
whiskerS.
When the little boy was let into the
room, he was confronted by not one,
but two enormous Santa Clauses, or at
least they seemed enormous to his
terrified eyes.
One Santa he might have stood, but
two were too much.
With a frightened yell. and tears
flowing, he fell down the stairway and
out into the yard, leaving the two
Santa Clauses, actually not many years
older than he, dumfounded at the panic
they had caused.

There was a gravel walk outside it,
some of which gravel was used in the
battles between the boys of the neighbor-
hood
AS we recall it, children threw more
and larger stones. in those days.
Or is that just nostalgia?
X
The porch came around the side of
the house, and continued on into the
back veranda, which opened on the
ground level with French doors from
the library.
It can be realized that this was
home dear to the heart of a child.
Everything about it was different, even
the large room of cabinets off the turn
in the staircase.
-. This room was really super linen
closet.
It was lined with shelves and cabinets,
made with meticulous care. Children, of
course, did not stop to wonder at the
workmanship. but something of it must
have struck certain young eyes.
The neighborhood abounded with
justices, Government men. some living
in row houses, some in detached.
The neighborhood was almost country.
1t seemed long way OUT to persons
used to living around the center Of the
city.
Children kept guinea pigs, and rabbits.
There was one girl in the neighbor-
