 ing about depurging has appeared in the Japanese press. Japanese editors were told by occupation officials to handle the story with care lest the people get the wrong impression.
 The editors responded with such care that they never printed the story.
 The Police Reserve tries hard not to look like an army but does not succeed very well. Trim, khaki-clad recruits are appearing on the streets in large numbers and they look and act more like soldiers than policemen. In suntans and American-style combat boots they are easily mis- taken for American Nisei. Their loose-fitting blouses are patterned after the Australian uniform. The cap, with it's tiny bill, is lifted straight from the old Japanese army. The reserve is modelled after the United States Army in almost every respect. It is organized along United States Army lines with six officers to each company. American Army field manuals have been translated in entirety for basic training.
 Recruits are getting the stand ard 13-week basic-training course, including physical conditioning, scouting and patroling. In many cases the reservistS are using camps and facilities vacated by American troops now in Ko- req. Six thousand men are train ing at one American camp in northern Honshu.
 Facilities of American Army school sat Eta Jima, former Jap anese naval academy near Hiro- shima, have been turned over to likely recruits.
 Eta Jima also is an officers training center. Of the 370 fficers graduated in the first class nearly all were former Japanese army reservists.
 So far reservists have been armed only with American car pines. But they are being given instruction in the use of American weapons from machine guns to 55-millimeter howitzers. Keichi Masuhara, civilian head of the police reserve, tells me that in the future the training program will include tank warfare and use of 57-millimeter anti-tank guns.
 Macarthur spokesmen say: "It is not contemplated that reserv- ists will be given anything bigger than carbines. But nobody, least of all the Japanese, doubts that all kinds of American weapons will be abundantly available if and when the need arises. Says Mashuhara, bespectacled little man in an impressed brown suit: ..
 "If Japan is permitted to rearm and the Constitution is changed it would be comparatively cary for the Police Reserve to become an army. However the force exists for police only in case of wide spread civil disorder in Japan"

Ruled Out on Record,
Negro Teacher Insists
On U. Of Va. Course
BY the Associoted Press

RICHMOND. Va, Sept. 22.-
Miss Alfredo Louise Madison, COL
ored, applied to the University of
Virginia for admission to its Ex-
tension Graduate School in Rich
mond today in the face of a uni
versity statement that the appli-
cation would have to be rejected
Lindley j. Stiles, dean of the
university's Department of Educa-
ton, said yesterday that Miss
Madison's academic record els not
such as to permit her to be en-
rolled" through the university.
He suggested that the Richmond
school teacher attempt to enroll
in the extension course, given at
Richmond Professional Institute
through Virginia State College
which, he said, shares in the (ex-
tension) program"
To Apply Only to University.
This suggestion was rejected by
Martin A. Martin, attorney for
Miss Madison. who announced
that the teacher forthwith was
forwarding applications for en-
rollment in four extension courses
to the university.
Virginia State officials con-
hrmed MIR. Martins contention
that the Petersburg college, so far,
is not one of several Virginia
institutions participating in the
extension program. But college
president r. r. Daniel said Vir-
slnla State would seek permission
to become participant next week
when the State Board of Educa-
ton meets in Richmond.
Mr.. Martin indicated, however
that even should Virginia State
join in the extension program.
Miss Madison would not attempt
to enroll through that college in
the extension courses in graduate
education which she desires. The
Richmond attorney said Virginia
States graduate school of educa-
ton is not accredited by the
American Association of Schools
and Colleges.
Racial Issue Not Involved.
Dean Stiles, in his letter to Mr.
Martin, said the university needed
to give no consideration" to the
question of Miss Madison's race
because her academic record made
it impossible for her to be en-
rolled in the extension graduate
course.
Dean Stiles wrote Mr.. Martin
when the Negro attorney asked
whether the teacher would be
permitted to enroll for the extern
sion courses given at r. P. l. in
view OF her race and color"
The university dean, while side
stepping the race question, said
he "saw. no reason" why Miss
Madison could not be admitted to
the courses ''if she can be ad-
mitted to Virginia State College. %
The university offers extension
courses in graduate education in
10 extension centers with the CO.
operation of several other State
colleges. Richmond Professional
Institute is one of these.

their minds after filing.
Some didn't like the uniforms

others couldn't get transportation
or were unable to adjust their

Because there aren't enough to
go around, men still guard many
of the crossings. The county also
employs IL men who formerly
worked for the Board of Educa-
ton, when that agency had juriS-
diction over the crossings.
Woman Likes Job.
Typical of the policewoman's S
attitude toward their jobs is that
of Mrs. Mabel Wolf, "a, of 200
Underwood avenue, who guards
the crossing at Old Bladensburg
road and Brunette avenue.
| This crossing, one of the busiest
in the county as far as the num-
Der OF children using it is con-
cerned, serves the Four Corners

Alexandra Man Awarded
SIS for Army Invention

An Alexandria man who has
saved the Government $4,000 sc
far by figuring out how to make
vehicles run better in sub-zerc
weather has been awarded $75 for
his idea.
Donald H. Smith, civilian en-
ploye of the Army Engineer Re-
search and Development Labora-
tories at Fort Belvoir, Va, received
the award yesterday from Col
o. B. Beasley. commanding officer
Of the center.
Col. Beasley said Mr.. Smith s
invention-a new winter front de-
sign for cold-weather operation OF
gasoline and diesel engines-had
proved better than any former
commercial or Army design. He
estimated the Government had
saved about $4,000 in a years use
Of the device.

wonderful" I"

That's the way Montgomery
County officials feel about how
the appointment of policewomen
to guard school crossings has
worked out.
Thirteen of the IA white-gloved
policewomen hired since school
opened September II are on duty
In Silver Spring. The 14th is
in Damascus;
Policemen whom they replaced
as well as the women themselves
are enthusiastic over their new
duties.
For Police Capt. Joseph Nolte,
in charge of the Silver Spring
station, the plan has meant he
can use men formerly assigned
to the, crossings for other law
enforcement duties.
And for the women, it has been
chance to help their commu-
mites and to earn money at the
same time.
| To Get $50 q Month.
Eventually. the county, the first
in Maryland to adopt such a sys-
tenn, hopes to get 80 policewomen
They will receive $50 a month
for working up to IS hours q

A rape charge against James 8.
Smith. 90. of the 600 block Of
North Columbus street, Alex

lesser sex offense at a preliminary
hearing in Alexandria Civil and

The lesser charge was recon-.
mended by Assistant Common

insufficient evidence to prosecute
the original charge. Smith paid
a $25 fine and was released.
Police wounded him in the arm
when they said they saw him
running from an alley in which
they found him with a woman last
Sunday.

areas of Arlington. Alexandria and
Falls Church form a., barrier tc
quick access to the open country
beyond. And it is in that open
country that the Government Is
expected to select sites for its out
lying agencies.
William H. Kennedy, zoning
engineer, and Frank E. Patterson
principal planner in Arlington, see
the traffice problem as the chief
one for their area in the dispersal
program.
Those planning the program
have said the outlying buildings
would be frohl 40 minutes to an
hour committing time from Wash
ington. They have described the
sites as necessarily linked with
Washington by high-speed high
ways. The 1898 million appro-
priation requested for starting the
program included $14 million for
access roads to the initial -four
sites.
Shirley Highway Fastest.
In Virginia, the Shirley highway
offers the fastest route to outly-
ing areas. It is a limited access
road-that is, there are no side
roads or cross roads at grade. The
highway is linked with intersect-
ing roads by cloverleaf connec-
tions.
From the Fourteenth Street
Bridge. a half hours drive on
the highway puts the motorist
deep into Fairfax County, with
out having been forced to make
even one stop.
Highway so, for some distance
"a dual-lane thoroughfare, carries
a tremendous volume of traffic
but is not a limited-access road
Nor are the other main highways
that come through Arlington to
the bridges across the Potomac.
