Mr.. Peterson's home at Glen
Echo, Md, on a bluff over

Is a mecca for bird fanciers
from all over. He likes to take
visitors down to the towpath
to look around with binoculars
in this bird-rich area. Not
long ago he drove an English
woman visitor to the lower Po-
tomac and back-3OO miles
to show her where some wild
swans spend the winter.
Why do people like to watch
birds?
Mr.. Peterson's own theory is
that birds symbolic freedom
and therefore have a deep
emotional appeal to humans.
Birds can move about, fly
away and escape from restric-
tions. Or at least we think So"
he says. They suggest to US
a complete escape from re-
Straint-something all of us
secretly wish for ourselves"
He considers it indicative
that when he asks his friends
what their favorite bird is
they almost invariably men
tion the peregrine falcon, the
fastest of birds. Chances are
the second choice will be the
hawk.
Whatever the reason, it is
a fact, says Mr.. Peterson, that
bird-chaSing is becoming more
popular than ever before. In
England 1t is almost a ma
tional sport. One of the popu-
larizers in this country has
been MIR. Peterson himself.

The body was first brought here
from France in 1947. The parents
had it exhumed about a year ago
and took it to Greece, where they
intended to live. After 10 months,
however, they exhumed it again
and returned to this country.
They found themselves with
only sufficient funds for their own
transportation to this city on
their arrival in Hoboken. News
of their plight became public
only yesterday.

it had taken charge of the case.

Formation of Floor

takes long time to make the
floor of forest. The amount of
floor different forests lay down
has been measured by Stanley P
Gessel, a graduate student at the
University of California College of
Agriculture.
Oak leaves, he finds, decompose
at rate of 6 to IL per cent a
year and take Is to so years to
form a floor. Pine needles are
much slower, and may take from
100 to 300 years to cover the
ground enough to protect it. In
hot and humid areas the rate of
decomposition is much faster-up
to 60 per cent.

Johnston Supporting
Branham for Vacancy
On Municipal Court

Senator Johnston. Democrat, Of
South Carolina, said today he
plans to urge appointment of
Ernest L. Branham, an attorney in
the Justice Department. to the
vacancy on the Municipal Court
bench here.
Expressing belief that President
Truman has not yet finally de-
cided on a nominee for the post,
the South Carolinian expressed
the opinion his candidate still has
q chance.
Mr.. Branham, 46, a native Of
Columbia, S. c., now is in the
Antitrust Division of the Justice
Department. He practiced law in
his home State before coming to
Washington in 1882 for legal work
in the RFC. Later he was with
the Home Owners Loan Corp,
the Labor Department, and the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.
He also was in the private practice
of law here for a time.
From other sources, it was
learned that Emory B. Smith, col
ored attorney, now in private
practice here, and former min
lister. may be named by the
President.
Mr.. Smith was formerly on the
staff of Howard University.
Senator Johnston is known to
feel he deserves consideration in
the appointment to the municipal
bench. since he sponsored legisla-
ton to increase the juristS on
duty there by three. Two already
have been appointed under the
new law, but there is still one
vacancy.
1t was indicated that Senator
Johnston may oppose the nomi-
nation of Mr.. Smith, If it is re-
ferred to the Senate District
Committee. Senator Johnston
has been a member Of the Dis
trict Committee for years.
His opposition to Mr.. Smith,
It was learned, would be because
Of his age, which is So.
