KANSAS CITY CLEANUP-Most
interesting fact developed at the
Kansas City crime probe is that big
racketeers are carefully obeying
federal laws. They aren't afraid
of state and city laws where local
officials are easier to bride. But
they are afraid of federal laws
That's why the underworld is lean
ing over backward not to get caught
in conspiracy. In Kansas City, at
least, they operate in small groups,
rather than in syndicates that cross
state lines.
SAID-Secretary of State Acheson
now has two affadavits from people
who heard and recorded Senator
McCarthy's famous speech at
Wheeling, w. Va, stating that the
state department had 205 card
carrying Communists. The man.
ager of the local radio station, who
recorded McCarthy's speech, is one
of those who is giving the state de-
partment an affidavit.
BYRD'S LOBBY-Senators can
thank their colleague, Harry Byrd
of Virginia, for increasing their
office work Byrd secretly inspired
a flood of kilograms to congress on
deficit spending. He even dictated
what several groups should say in
their wires to congress. The farm
equipment association promptly ap-
pealed to its dealers to carry out
Byrd's bidding but warned: please
do not mention Senator Byrd's
name in your telegram to congress-
men, and change the wording
around so that all wires will not
read the same"
AIKEN'S PAID AUDIENCE
Good old Senator Aiken of Vermont
can add the name of another public
official who has been speaking to
paid audiences himself. Aiken
stirred up national hoopla over
the fact that the agriculture depart
ment paid Minnesota county COM
mitteemen to hear Secretary of
Agriculture Brannan speak in St.
Paul. But the other night, Aiken,
himself, addressed a similar meet
ing of Vermont county committee
men in Burlington. They were also
paid, as is the custom in every
State.

pop would let him attend the cir

Old Silas grinned and swal-

dug down into his pocket and

Jackie carefully placed the half
dollar in a pocket Of his tattered

over his ruddy face, puckered up
his lips and began to whistle. He
whistled all that afternoon and
was still whistling when he came
in from the lower lot for supper.
Once upstairs, Jackie carefully
took off his shirt and then felt in
the pocket of his overalls for the
half dollar. He'd better sleep with
it under his pillow, he reasoned,
like he'd read about folks doing.
It was right then that Jackie's
heart sank, right then that the
world turned black and there was
a horrible, terrifying, empty feel

half dollar was gone!
Jackie wanted to cry, but he
was too much of a man for that.

not make any," Mr.. Mahoney told
his radio audience. when elected,
I shall be a free governor of the
Free State of Maryland"
He indicated the tenor of his
campaign will be finding fault
with Gov. Lanes administration
by saying it consisted of "ineffi-

ness and unnecessary taxes"
Taxes Are Main Target.
Taxes were the main target of
Mr.. Mahoney, who was ousted as

clared this is a necessary first step
in solving the areas problems. :

In urging the area be treated as

clared civilian defense planning

Any emergency can be handled
only on a communicative basis,

even after this is enacted, area
problems will remain.
Cooperation Called Key.
"Only the cooperative efforts of
the Federal Government, the Dis
trict of Columbia, Maryland and

Rezoning 10 Permit
New Shopping Center
For Bethesda Opposed

The Maryland National Capital
Park and Planning Commission
yesterday recommended denial of
a rezoning petition to permit con-
struction of a $250,000 shopping
center on Old Georgetown road,
near Beach drive, Bethesda.
The application was one of
three seeking commercial reclass-
ificatiorf Of land in the Bethesda
area. The other two were recon-
mended for approval.
A hearing on the request by the
Cambridge Construction Co. to
rezone approximately 10000
square feet on Old Georgetown
road will be held before the Mont
gomery County Council at 1880
pm. Tuesday in the Bethesda
County Building.
In its recommendation, the
commission said the petition is
not in conformity with the
agency's proposed zoning plan for
the area.
This plan. according to the
planning group. proposes estab-
lishment of shopping center at
Grosvenor lane and Old George
town road "of a sufficient size to
serve the present and future local
shopping needs for all of the res
idents within radius of approx
mately two miles,"
The commission also claimed
that if small. local shopping cen
ters are built too close to the
Bethesda business district, they
might affect the latter's economic
stability and result in "spotting"
the area with isolated CONNER
cial centers."
The two other petitions are:
Thomas M. Anderson, agent for
Charles B. Hawley, owner of land
on the north side of East West
highway about 200 feet east OF
Wisconsin avenue.
Ben Tarmini, for land on the
northwest side of F'airmont ave,
