Anti Red Crusade
Fails to Get Visus
For Soviet Tour

A group planning a Crusade
Against Communism" while on a
worldwide tour is not going to
make Russia one of its stops be-
cause it can't get visas.
Yesterday the director of the
group, Clennon King. tried to
arrange for visas to allow the
group to enter the Soviet. He
said his efforts at the Russian
Embassy were unsuccessful.
The crusade is being sponsored
by the Virginia Union University
in Richmond, Va. Mr.. King, who
is colored, is an associate history
professor at the university. He
said that all but a few of those
going on the 10-week tour are
Negroes.
Mr.. King said the trip would
be made aboard a chartered air
liner, christened Ralph Bunche"
in honor Of the American Negro
who served as mediator in the
Palestine war. The plane will head
for Hawaii and stop in some Is
countries while circling the globe,
he said.

Certificates were given also to
Hugh S. Smith, principal of JEFF
ferson Junior High School, and
Miss Ruth McCrae, assistant prin-
cipal of Central. Both are old

Population Changed.
Central died under the surging
pressure of Washington's popula-
ton changes. When the school
was built on the high hill over
looking the city at Thirteenth and
Clifton streets it was in a predom-
inately white neighborhood. Now
it is surrounded by the fine homes
of colored citizens. Their chill
dren had to travel miles to over
crowded and ancient high school,
buildings.
The lights went out but on the
sidewalk outside people stood talk
ing. They were elderly people for
the most part. but they hated TO
leave the scenes where tender
memories were nourished. But
gradually they drifted away and
Central High became a memory.

Interior Opens ; More
Swimming Pools on
b. Racial Basis Today

The Interior Department planned
to open its Anacostia, Francis and
Takoma swimming pools this
afternoon on an inter-racial basis.
Last week the three other pools
operated by the Department were
opened to swimmers of all races.
These pools are the East Potomac,
Banneker and Mckinley pools.
The actual operation of the
pools is by Government. Services,
Inc, which has a contract to run
them for the Interior Department.
No incidents of any Importance
arose during the first week of the
inter-racial operation. Few Ne
groes appeared at East Potomac
while white swimmers steered
clear of Banneker and Mckinley.
Last summer, trouble broke out
at Anacostia, when colored youths
tried to use the pool. 1t was shut
down Immediately and remained
closed the rest of the summer.
Until last year, only Francis and
Banneker were used by colored
swimmers. although the Interior
Department has operated them
for several years under an an
nounced policy of non-segrega-
ton. Mckinley. previously a white
pool, was patronized mainly by
pcolored youths last summer when
the white swimmers stopped using
| it.

Plaintiff Spent $17 to Upset
Cos Boost, Asks Appeal Fund
Lawyer Asked No Fee.
Says Public Must Pay
To Corry On Fight

Vernon V. Baker, private citizen,
spent a total of $11 in winning his
case against the Washington Gas
Light Co., but there's financial
trouble ahead for him.
"The appeal is going to require
money, and I don't propose to
spend any of mine" he said today
It was on the basis of Mr.
Bakers suit that District Court
Judge T. Alan Goldsborough yes
terday set aside the gas rate in
crease the Public Utilities Commits
sion granted last November. The
increase added about $750,000 a
year to bills of local consumers.
The gas company has indicated
it will appeal Judge Goldsborough's S
decision. The PUG also will appeal.
Serves Without Fee.
IF the public wants to defend
this victory, money must be raised
in some manner to handle the
COSTS" Mr.. Baker said. He is pay
ing himself no fee for handling his
own case.
Mr.. Baker. an examiner for the
Interstate Commerce Commission,
is a member of the bar. However,
this was his first court appearance
in IL years. His work with the
ICC is related to finance cases
involving common carriers.
He said he was going to put the
matter up to the Federation of
Citizens Associations and, if they
want to raise the funds, he will
go on with the case. The original
$11 he spent to file the suit was
paid by the Federation.
1t was through his activity in
the Federation that Mr.. Baker got
involved in the case against the
gas company in the first place.
He is the chairman of the Fedora
tion's Public Utilities Committee.
Federation Ruled Out.
Last year, the Federation de-
cided to contest the PUG rate in
crease order with a court suit.
But, Mr.. Baker pointed out that
the Federation was not a gas con-
Sumer and probably would be
barred when it came to a show
down.
For that reason, he joined in
the suit as a private citizen and a
gas consumer directly affected.
He was right. Judge Colds
borough ruled the Federation had
no place in the suit. leaving Mr..
Baker the lone participant.
The $11 cash does not represent
the total cost of fighting the case.
Mr.. Baker estimated he spent
enough hours working on the case,
on his own time. to add up to three
solid weeks.
Native of Tennessee.
Mr.. Baker, native of Jackson,
Tenn, has lived in Washington
since 1928. He is IS years old.
He earned his law degree from
National University here in 1929.
Most of the time since he has
lived in Washington he has worked
with the Government, with the
exception of the period from 1884
to 1888. when he was in private
practice. He has been with the
ICC for IL years.

Police Testify
To Conflicts in
Edwards Story
Tell Of Questioning
Him as Suspect in
Glen Burnie Case
BY the Asseeioted Press

| BALTIMORE, June 14.-Police
investigators repeated today the
conflicting stories they said
Thomas A. Edwards told them
about his movements on the night
a young Glen Burnie couple was
slain.
George E. Ryan. retired Bal
timore detective who worked on
the case in 1948, read to a two
judge court notes he had taken
when he questioned Edwards at
the Waterloo State police bar
racks for more than six hours
November 8, 9 and 10, 1948.
The rambling statements pro-
duced at these three sessions
quoted Edwards as saying that
"a .38-caliber Czechoslovakian pis-
tol he had owned for several years
was soaking in oil the night of the
Staying.
This is the weapon the State
contends the 26-year-old colored
man near from the Marley Neck
section Of Anne Arundel County
used to kill John H. Mahlan. Is,
and Mary C. Kline, 18.
Quoted on False Story.
The notes read by Mr.. Ryan
quoted Edwards as saying that he
had given police a false story
when he was first picked up a
month before his secondhand
f1nal-arrest end asked where he
was on Septe1,)cr II.
Il had to tell them something. :"
Mr.. Ryan's no1cs quoted the de-
fendant. Il tod them about 60
ing to the movies in Baltimore"
He was quoted in a later state
ment that he went to a Negro
dance hall at Freetown and re-
turned to his brothers home,
where he often slept. with another
man from the dance hall about
l am.
Edwards attorney, William j.
McWilliams of Annapolis, asked
Mr.. Ryan during cross-examina-
ton why Edwards was taken to
Waterloo barracks.
He was taken there, replied Mr..
Ryan, so we could have a little
peace and quiet"
Loaded with Reporters"
Mr.. McWilliams asked why
there wasn't peace and quiet at
F'erndale, headquarters of Anne
Arundel county police.
"The place was loaded with re-
porters," said the witness.
"Is that bad?" Mr.. McWilliams
asked.
TITS bad from a police stand
point" Mr.. Ryan answered.
Mr.. McWilliams then asked if
Edwards had been told by police
he was taken to Waterloo to pre-
vent his being lynched at Fern
dale. Mr.. Ryan denied that.
Edwards was once convicted of
killing the two young people and
sentenced to death. But the
Court of Appeals upset the ver-
dict a few months ago and sent
the case back to the Baltimore
Criminal Court for retrial.

Kills Bill to Bon
Liquor Sales Here
| At Cut Prices
By Harold B. Rooers

The House District Committee
today approved and sent to the
House far action an a bill to con-
tinue the Districts system of six
day-care centerS for one more
year from June 80.
In executive session the COM
mittee by vote OF nine 10 five
provided that not more than
100000 be authorized for exl
penseS. This money would have
to be appropriated. however. II
the bill becomes law, an item to
this effect could be considered in
the Districts 1851 appropriation
bill now pending in District
Appropriation subcommittee.
! The bill also continues the
trust fund set up for this year,
into which parents fees for the
care OF their children can be de-
posted, This money would con-
t1nue to be available for immedi-
ate expenditure without having to
oe appropriated as it was In
previous years.
/ Contract Authority Provided.
The Board of Public Welfare
would be given authority to enter
'rto contracts with any public or
private agency to handle the
centerS.
/ The measure approved today is
different from a Senate-passed
bill for continuing the centers per-
manently. This bill recently was
rejected by a House District sub
committee.
The District Committee also
killed a controversial bill which
would set up a So-called lair trade
practice for control of the District
liquor industry. It had been re-
quested by most of the organized
liquor dealers. except cut-rate
stores, and was strongly opposed
by District officials.
A similar bill which had also
been attacked because it would
have virtually eliminated cut-rate
rate sales of standard brands
failed of enactment in the S0th
Congress.
Other Bills Approved.
The District Committee ap-
proved bills which would:
Enlarge the stadium at Eastern
High School to a seating capacity
of 10000 and equip it with a mod
ern lighting system for night
events. This bill would authorize
an appropriation of $4,000.
Amend the present law regulat-
ing the registration of architects
in the District.
Authorize the District Commits
sioners to change the title of the
District health officer and his as
sistants to director of public
health and assistant director of
public health.
Chairman Mcmillan of the Dis
trict Committee may attempt to
call up these approved bills for
action on the House floor tomor-
row. But the House plans to meet
only tomorrow during the rest Of
this week under a program by
which legislation can be consid-
cred only by unanimous consent.
Since one single objection from
the House floor could block action.
there was a possibility that the
bills might not be considered.
