Michael BrOschart
Has More Than His
Share OF Troubles

Four-year-old Michael Bros
chart, son of Mr.. and Mrs. William
Broschart of Gaithersburg, has re-
ceived more than his share of
"hard knocks, his latest mis-
fortune occurring on Saturday.
Michael, who is the grandson of
DIR. Frank Broschart, County
Medical Examiner, received second
degree burns from his ankle to
his knee when he kicked pile of
leaves, unaware that they were
still smoldering. His, pants SleE,
which caught fire, was burned, COM
pletely off. Michael is at home re-
spending satisfactorily, although
cutie uncomfortable. Sh4< {. 4
Beginning in the yoring of 40,
it has been zone thing after
another" as far as Michael is con-
cerned. At that time he fell, cut
ting his head, the wound requiring
four stitches. Shortly after that
he ran his hand through window,
but this time luck was with him
and he escaped unscathed. A few
months later a playmate slammed
Michael's hand in the door of a
truck. He was unhurt in his next
fracas in which he climbed into the
seat of a parked truck and re-
leased the brake.
Last fall Michael fell from his
bike and broke his leg. He was
laid up by this for several months,
and Immediately upon recovery,
fell from his bed breaking his
collarbone.
Michael bears up under it all
with remarkable patience, friends
say.

eve realize that defense needs
cannot be met without sacrifice on
the part of all citizens of our
country" said Mrs. James V. Ben
nett, president of the Montgomery
County League of Women Voters.
This unpleasant fact places a
responsibility upon consumers and
an obligation on the government.
The League recognizes the respon-
sibility of consumers to accept the
necessary sacrifice in a spirit of
good citizenship as part Of their
contribution to the security and
freedom of the United States and
a free world. We also recognize
the obligation of government to
adopt measures to assure equity in
the imposition of sacrifice. In our
opinion credit restrictions are one
of the basic measures necessary
to the present defense effort. We
realize strong pressures are at
work to secure the relaxation of
these regulations. We urge the
continuation of present restrictions
and further strengthening if nee
essary." ..
In regard to increased taxation,
the Montgomery League of Women
Voters asked it's representatives in
Congress to assume leadership
wherever possible in supporting
all measures aimed at placing our
defense program on a pay-as-you-
go basis by an equitable distribu-
ton Of a higher Federal tax. On
this subject, Mrs. Bennett further
says: with sixty billion dollar
budget in view for 1851, more
money will have to be appropriated
to meet these increased costs. A
further increase becomes a neces-
sity so that the gap between ex-
penditures and revenue can be re-
duced. The League recognizes
that higher taxes, equitably dis
tributed, are basic to an anti-in-
fiationary program for the long
pull ahead. The League therefore
is favoring enactment of legis-
lation to increase Federal taxes as
soon as possible and further
strengthening of present credit
restrictions if necessary"
This action by Montgomery
County's League of Women
Voters is in line with the current
program of the League of Women
Voters of the United States which
calls for a continued analysis of
the federal budget and support Of
such fiscal measures as make for
a stable and expanding domestic
economy.

County Liquor Law
Reform Is Urged
By Legislator

A prohibition referendum in
Montgomery County was suggested
Monday night to the Allied Civic
Group of Silver Spring as the first
step toward revamping the county's
liquor laws.
Addressing the group in the
Liquor Dispensary Building, Silver
Spring, Anders R. Lofstrand, Jr.,
chairman of the county's Legisla-
tive delegation, made the sugges-
ton in answer to questions con-
corning the delegations stand on
proposed legislation to permit the
sale of mixed drinks in service and
veterans clubs.
Emphasizing that he spoke as an
individual, Mr.. Lofstrand reported
lack of public support of such
legislation. He said he would sup
port referendum on the question
but recommended the prohibition
referendum as starting point ito
bring the whole liquor question in
the OPEN. Any change in the liquor
laws, he added, should follow es-
tablishment of County Council
jurisdiction over the Liquor Con-
troll Board, whose members now
are appointed by the Governor.
Mr.. Lofstrand and other mem
bers of the delegation also express
ed approval of proposals for COM
pulsory motor vehicle inspection,
creation of a State highway study
committee, transfer of the Mont
gomery County functions of the
Maryland-National Capital Park
and Planning Commission and the
Washington Suburban Sanitary
Commission to the County Council.
Repeal of the Lindsay law prohibit
ing nonpartisan elections of Coun-
ty Council members and the APP
preparation of funds for civil de-
tense were also discussed. They
saw no need for further reduction

u. ). Orders Controls
On All Shipments TO
China or Nearby Ports
Strict Regulations Are
Effective ot Midnight;
Aim at All Exports
BY the Associotsd Pres.

The United States last night
ordered strict controls-effective
at midnight Sunday-on ship
ments of all goods destined fol
Red China, Hong Kong anc
! Macao.
| At the same time. Secretary o!
Commerce Sawyer announced the
same controls will apply to al
shipments of strategic commodi-
ties from foreign countries pass
ing through American ports en-
route to Russia and her satellite
countries; China. Hong Kong and
Macao.
Mr.. Sawyer explained that ship
ments to Hong Kong, a British
Crown Colony, and Macao, a
Portuguese possession. are af-
fected because of the Importance
OF these two places as transship-
ment points.
Acted After Consultations.
The Tightening of controls is
aimed at cutting down sharply on
shipments of strategic goods that
might reach Communist or Com
munist-dominated countries.
Mr.. Sawyer said he acted after
consultation with the State De-
partment, the Defense Depart
ment and other Government
agencies.
The new step means that export
licenses now must be obtained on
all goods-even down to such
things as powder puffs and tooth
brushes, for example - being
shipped from the United States to
Red China and Hong Kong and
Macao.
Heretofore, strategic materials
made in this country have been
under strict export controls re-
garding shipment to Communist
controlled areas.
Mr.. Sawyer emphasized the
polnt tnaC all goods are now al
fected. He reiterated. however,
that the total trade to these
areas already has been greatly
reduced by earlier controls.
The OFT said the new restric-
tions on domestic goods and on
the in-transit goods from for
eign countries naturally will
bring an additional work load on
that agency and on customs. And,
it said. some delays are expected
in processing applications for ex-
port licenses. However. it is hoped
to hold these to a minimum.

Target Date Of April |
For Imposing Control!
Hinted by Symington
Expects U. S. Economy
To Feel Reel Impact
Of Arms Orders Then
By Froncis P. DouqIos

/ A statement by Chairman w
Stuart Symington of the National
Security Resources Board that by
April l the Nations economy will
feel the "real impact" Of military
production was taken last night
as an indication that that may
be the Governments target date
for imposing price and wage con-
trolls.
Mr.. Symington's statement was
made public last night by the Sen
ate Banking Committee, before
which he testified on Wednesday.
There was widespread belief that
President Truman's request to in
crease the current defense budget
from $25 billion to almost $42
billion left" little doubt that price
and wage controls will be a neces-
sary sequel.
Mr.. Symington's testimony ap-
peared to rule out any such ac-
tions before February /, however.
unless conditions change.
Trial for Present Controls.
He was asked by Senator Cape
hart, Republican. of Indiana,
whether he believed all features
of the Defense Production Act,
including price and wage controls,
might be put into effect within the
next so days. He said in reply:
Il think personally, always de-
pendent upon what world de-
velopments are, we ought to try
and give the present controls
more chance and get a little
clearer view of exactly what it is
the Defense Department wants
before we, you might say, strait
jacket the economy"
Later he was questioned by
Senator Douglas, Democrat, of
Illinois. as to when the full i'm
pact on industry would develop.
Mr.. Symington predicted that
this would come in real way
at the end of the first quarter of
1851, that "it will grow from there
on and that in certain cases it
might come quicker.
ADA Asks Full Mobilization.
| AS the Senate committee made
Mr.. Symington's testimony pub
lie, Americans for Democratic Ac-
tion issued statement calling for
a f1ve-point program for all-out
mobilization. Among the measures
it urged were firm price controls
and the StabiliZation of real wages
on pre-Korean war basis
through price roll-backs and wage
adjustments.
The organization, which is
headed by Francis Biddle, former
Attorney General, also advocated

of industry to meet national and
international needs; CD an excess
profits tax and higher corpora
ton tax, and 90 re-establish-
