George Washington left a will
that was wrongly dated, lacked a
signature he claimed it contained
and was unWitnessed, making it
invalid in the District of Colum-
bia and four States.
On January 20. 1900, the clerk
in the Fairfax County Court
House in Alexandria recorded for
probate a document opening with
these lines:
I'm the name of God amen!
George Washington of Mount
Vernon, a citizen of the United
States, and lately President of the
same, do make, ordain and de-
clare this instrument: which is
written with my own hand and
every page thereof subscribed with
my name, to be my last will and
testament, revoking all others"
Twenty-nine neatly penned
pages later were the words:
I'm witness of all and each of
the things herein contained, 1
have set my hand and seal this
ninth day of July, in the year
One Thousand Seven Hundred
and Ninety and of the Independ-
ence of the United States, the

Public Hearing Slated
In D. T.. Crime Probe

The congressional investigation
of crime and punishment will
take the form of public hearings,
probably within the next two
weeks.
This was predicted by Repre-
sentative Davis, Democrat, Of
Georgia, chairman of the House
District Subcommittee in charge
of the inquiry, following a closed
session of his unit late yesterday.
The next executive session Of
the five-man subcommittee, Mr..
Davis said, will be held at pm.
Tuesday. At that time the group
may be able to decide whether to
ask the House for more money
to pursue the study. Already the
House has granted $4,000 to the
Davis committee.
1--WE will have a lot of public
hearings" D. Mr.. Davis predicted.
"and they will all be interesting"
Every phase of law enforcement
is being looked into, Mr.. Davis
said, but he declined to offer any
indication of the evidence coll
lected so far, except to say the
investigators have assembled "a
huge amount of material"

Washington had slipped. The
Oath year of independence was
1899. and his will was signed on
July 9 of that year, not 1870. The
will was completed five months
and five days before his death.
He also slipped on page %. The
last words on that page were not
go Washington" but "City o1
Washington" referring to a
square of District property he left
to one of his heirs.
AS for witnesses, none was re-
quired in Virginia. But they
were in the District, Maryland,
New York, Kentucky and Ohio,
where Washington owned alto
gether, more than 10000 acres of
land.
Fortunately, the beneficiaries
agreed to abide by Washington S
wishes; he himself gave the COR
rect date, in a property list at
tached to the will, and the miss
ing signature on page % didn't
matter.
The will, along with that of
Martha Washington, who died in
1902, is preserved behind glass in
the present county courthouse in
Fairfax.

New Building Funds

The General Assembly had no
tice from the University of Mary
land today that it wants at least
$l.550.000 for new construction.
The university's program calls
for a 100000 bond issue for a
student activities building and a
bond bill for construction of a
combination athletic auditorium
and physical education plant" Z"
No estimate of cost was made
public on the latter.
State fiscal Offices have init
mated that financing of only
emergency projects would be con-
sidered at this short session, to
begin February /. So far Gov.
Lane has remained non-committal
on bond issues for this session.
President H. c. Byrd didn't
make public the university's pro-
gram after the Board of Regents
approved it yesterday, but he did
say the university will ask 1,200,-
900 in State money for physics
and mathematics buildings to
complete the new engineering
group.
Part of the known program
will involve use of the States
credit in a way similar to that
adopted for the $50,0O0,00O credit

tion.
