Negroes to full and unrestricted
Christian fellowship" in Young
Mems Christian associations was
urged in a resolution passed by
the National YMCA council at its
recent three-day sessions held here
Approving the appointment of a
national study commission on the
interracial practises of the YMCA,

of brotherhood which the world
must have If it is to be saved from
the consequences of war.

acterisuc qualities Of poison ivy.
1t Will be found as a short stubby
weed, or as a climbing vine, on
trees and fences.
Some people do not react to
poison ivy, while others are highly
susceptible TO 1t. Any sudden
burning itch while in thickly veg
etated areas may be considered
as contact with poison ivy, and
treatment should be started within
five minutese by washing vigor-
ously with soap and water or kero-
sene. Calomine lotion may then be
applied to relieve the itch. Avoid
scratching the infected areas as
1t may spread to other parts Of
the body. In severe cases, bandage
loosely and seek medical care.
The best possible prevention for
Poison Ivy is to recognize, and
avoid it, Whenever discovered
this virulent weed should be killed.
This can be accomplished by grub
bling out and with the use of
chemical herbicides. Ammonium
sulphate is very effective.
The most important thing to re-
member in treating Poison Ivy is
to begin treatment at once.

Breeder Gets 8 Years
For Collaborating
In Safe Cracking

James o. Breeder, former Mont
gomery County police corporal,
was sentenced to eight years in
the Maryland Penitentiary yester-
day for collaborating on a safe
cracking last summer with three
other men.
Circuit Court Judge Charles w.
Woodward told the 33-year-old
Coast Guard veteran:
You have brought disgrace to
the whole Montgomery County
police force. You were doing the
very thing you were paid to pre-
vent. You were false to your
trust"
. Breeder. who lives in Takoma
Park. pleaded nolo contendere
to larceny and HOUSEKEEPING
charges. He was tried with three
other men who pleaded guilty to
similar charges.
Albert w. Neville, IS, of the
100 block of Wayne place Sc, was
sentenced to three years in the
Maryland House of Correction.
Joseph A. Fabianich, 20, of the
1400 block of Girard street NV,
was given an ndeterminate SEN
tence in the State Reformatory for
Males, not to exceed two years.
Jack Albert Taylor, 80, of the 100
block of Wooten avenue. Bethesda,
was given a sentence deferment
pending the arrival of an addi-
tional witness.
The charges against the four
men grew out of a safecracking
last August 26 at the Devlin Lum-
Der Co.. 1888 Bethesda avenue, in
which $347 was stolen, and several
thousand dollars worth of checks
and notes were destroyed.
Breeder, who had been on the
county police force for six years
told the court the scheme for
helping a robbery had been
preached by Taylor. He said
Taylor told him he knew some
"big guys" in New York who could
be worked into larger crimes later
on.
II thought I could maybe get
into the detective force, and
planned to tell the department
just before the big job" Breeder
said.

Alexandra Woman Voters
0ppose Tax Cut Plan Anew

The Alexandria League of
Women Voters has renewed its
plea against a proposed lucent
reduction in the city's real estate
tax rate for 1851.
City officials are preparing to
adopt 1851 budget based on a
tax rate of $3.50. League spokes-
men opposed the cut at the budget
hearing two weeks ago.
In new appeal yesterday to
city heads, Mrs. Warren H. Turner,
jr., league president, said her Or
ganization feels the proposed tax
reduction represents "unsound and
unrealistic city fiscal management
in the light of current infationary
trends"
Noting that the city plans to
borrow 100000 to help pay for
a new incinerator, Mrs. Turner
said the league believed retention
of the present $2.75 tax rate would
make it unnecessary to borrow any
money.

matter
In reply, Mrs. John Scharf, the
leagues legislative chairman, said
the organization has not studied
the matter and does not plan to do
so at this time.
Fraternal and veterans groups
who maintain club houses want
the same privilege of serving
liquor to their members as that
given country clubs. Two restaur-
ants in the county also have liquor

phases of the program before A.

which John Nolen, jr.. director of
planning, will submit to Senator
Holland at Mondays meeting of
the subcommittee. He had testi-
fled before the group on Thurs
day.
Jess Larson, General. Service Ad-
ministrator. had indicated to
NCPPC certain powers that should
be granted that agency under any
disposal program of a general ma
ture affecting Washington. Mr..
Nolen outlined these as:
/. The ability of NCPPC to OPP
crate successfully in areas so miles
from the Capital outside the
neighboring counties constituting
Washington's environs.
2. NCPPC should be made eli
gible to expend Federal funds in
cooperation with local govern
ments outside the environs which
embrace Arlington, Fairfax, Mont
gomery and Prince Georges Coun-
ties.
These amendments would not
in any way diminish the necessity
of enacting the NCPPC reorganiza-
ton bill at this time" Mr.. Nolen
said.
That bill would set up the agen-
cy as the central planning group
in areas within so miles, giving 1t
extended authority to advise in all
planning matters. It would pro-
vide also for local representation
on the planning commission.

AS it blasted away in a spec

of the Ordnance Corps stressed
that the new Army weapon is
not an artillery piece, although
it appears to be a small cannon.
They also said it is not competi-
tive with artillery.
It is described as an item of
small arms development. a weap-
on for small infantry units. It
places unprecedented offensive
and defensive hitting power in the
hands of troop units which here
tofore have had no such power.
The officers said the new 105-mill-
imeter rifle replaces no weapon
but fills a definite need for new
class of infantry armament.
The total weight of the rifle on

inches long and 81 inches wide.

final design. because development
Is continuing to improve the guns
