Enthusiasm for the show is
tremendous" he declared. 1T is
particularly appropriate that the
national show is being held for
the first time in the Nations Capt.
tai during its sesquicentennial
year. I hope that the many who
are just becoming home owners
will be inspired by the show to
plant gardens, not only for the
pleasure they will derive from
growing their own flowers but also
to enhance the beauty of their
fine city and surrounding COM
munities."
The show will be held in the

the Federal loyalty program.

The committee wants the high
tribunal to rule the loyalty pro-
gram invalid and to order the
committees name stricken from
the Attorney Generals list of Sub
versives." The Government con-
tends, and was upheld in District
Court and the Court of Appeals
here, that the Attorney Generals
action stems from a Presidential
order which is not subject to judi
cial review.
Yesterdays session brought only
four written opinions, two of them
by Justice Clark, but it produced
an unusual number of rulings on
petitions for review. The court
recessed until March q. 1t then
will begin two weeks of hearings,
including arguments on oil tide
lands suits involving Texas and
Louisiana. The court yesterday
refused Texas request to post
pone arguments from March q
until at least May /. Solicitor

OF New York City, and Neil w.
Kelley of Baltimore, who said they
were ordained ministers. were ar
rested on disorderly conduct
charges. They denied they were
in any way disorderly or that the
council had right to ban them
from talking in the park.
The court also announced it
would rule on the 100000 damage
suit brought against the Govern
ment by a war veteran, Arthur K.
Jefferson of Joppa, Md. He COM
planned that Army surgeons at
Fort Belvoir, Va, left towel in
his abdomen after an operation
in 1945. The towel was discovered
in a subsequent operation at Johns
Hopkins Hospital, after Mr.. JET
