Bradbury Heights Defers.
Stand on Milk Agency

The Bradbury Heights Citizens
Association last night deferred
action on proposal to set up a
District Milk Commission.
Andrew Temple protested that
no one has mentioned the number
of persons to serve on the agency
or their salaries.
Furthermore" Mr.. Temple
said. merely allowing outside milk
interests to market milk in the
District would not necessarily
guarantee lower prices while
maintaining present high quality"
The association referred the
resolution to a committee for study
and possible amendments.
The association favored over
time pay to District police for one
day of their present six-day week,
The association also asked for
repeal of the Districts personal
property tax, 40 per cent Federal
payment toward the District bud
get and appointment of a new
Peoples Counsel, to replace John
IO'Dea, who recently resigned.
The meeting was held in the

He sat down frequently to friendly

He had his weaknesseS-a touch

He was great man. was George

But first of all, he was a man.
We sometimes forget that. as
we hang out the flag on his birth
day. We've been schooled-and
"schooled" is exactly what mean
hereto think Of Washington as
some sort of marble statue or
plaster saint: too perfect to be
human, too lifeless to have lived.
That's the impression I got in
my school days. anyhow. And the
result was just the opposite of

Now, of course, I knew that
was noble of George. I knew
1t was what any right-minded
little boy should do. But I had
my own opinion of little George
for doing it.
I knew darned well that I
couldn't have done it and that
none Of the kids in our block
could have done it. We'd have
been scared to death. We'd have
stayed in the bushes, trembling.
And when we finally had to come
out, we'd have sworn uphill and
down that we saw woodpeckers
gnawing into that cherry tree.
BY now. I suppose. everybody
knows that the cherry tree story
is nothing but q yarn made up
by an old faker called Parson

wrote. I hope they don't teach
1t in the schools any more. 1t
can't really be good for kids to

Steel Work At

Steel work on construction of

after the steel workers quit the

All other work on the building
is progressing according to sched-

day.
The building was picketed last
week because of non-uniona cleo
trical workers. The picket was
provided by the Columbus Build
ing Trades Council, according to
Dale S. Porter, school Superin-
tendent at West Jefferson.
Phil O'Day of the council said
the picket was posted because
electricians of the Frank A. Davis
& Son, a non-union firm, started
on the job.
The firm, however, was low

law the school system was requir-

CEILING OF d MILLION PLACED
ON ARMED FORCES OF The NATION

WASHINGTON. MARCH g.
(AP)-Working under an agree
ment to talk less and vote more
frequently, senator's today drove
toward final action on the broad
universal military training and
service (UMTS) bill.
Already the senate had written
into the bill a ceiling of 100000
on the armed forces over the OBJ
jections of The Pentagon, which
wanted none.
The major battle remaining was
the question of starting eventual
ly a iong-term compulsory mill
tary training program that would
include all young men as they
become is years old.
The senate bill now would
authorize induction of 18 year olds
for as long as "a months. Older
men from 19 through 25, now
subject to draft, would be taken
first.
When the emergency ends. SER
vice would be cut to six months
of military training for all Is
year olds. They would 60 into
reserve Units after basic training.
Senators Edwin c. Johnson
(D-Colo.), Taft lR-Ohio) and
Bricker tR-Ohio1 led the fight
to eliminate this long-range uni
versal training feature and limit
the bill to extension and expan-
sion of the Draft Act.
Their main argument was that
by the time the need for partial
mobilization has ended, congress
can work out a more effective
training program.
Senators Lyndon Johnson Cd
Tex and Russell lD-Ga1. floor
managers for the UNITS measure,
Madison County Democrat. (London, Ohio) 19??-1958, 1951-03-09

said the vote might be closed.
But they said they were conf
dent the move will fail.
The Senate agreed to consider
first an amendment by Senator
Gordon (R-Ore.) to knock out
proposed deferment of 75,000
young men in each of the next
three years.
They would be expected to
study to be doctors, scientists and
technieians. The bill would leave
their selection to a new five-man
board, probably on the basis
of a nationwide competition.
Highlight of yesterdays stormy
session was. the imposition of a
100000 linn ito nthe size of the
armed services. Both sides later
claimed victory.
Top Pentagon officials sent
S It a t e m ments to administration
forces in an effort to block a
3,500.000 manpower ceiling urged
by Senator Morse (R-Ore.) with
powerful Republican backing.
The senate first rejected, 56 to
80, a 100000 restriction propos-
ed by Senator McMahon ID
Conn.,.
Senator Robertson lD-Va.l
then offered the 100000 figure
as a substitute for Morse's lower
limit. Il was approved 49 to II.
Then the limitation was written
into the bill by an identical vote
that saw most of the senate shift
positions.
On the first test 40 Democrats
and nine Republicans teamed up
for it. On the vote making it part
of the bill, II Democrats and
81 Republicans formed the ma
iority against "a Democrats and
Z Republicans.
