Mole Case Forgery
Sentencing Put Off
Indefinitely in County

Sentencing of an East River
dale woman on a forgery charge
was continued indefinitely in
Montgomery County Circuit
Court yesterday to allow the de-
fense attorney time to produce
additional evidence.
The woman, Mrs. Sarah Edith
Millett. 20, was found guilty last
week by Judge Charles w. Wood
ward of cashing a forged $64
check last March at Silver
Spring shop.
At the first hearing, Judge
Woodward said he was ready to
turn the defendant loose, until
the proprietor of the shop Leon
ard Levy. testified the woman who
cashed the check had mole on
the right side of her face.
States Attorney Walter w.
Dawson produced picture of
Mrs. Millett made by police when
she was arrested September 20.
It showed a small mark in the
place where Mr.. Levy said he had
seen it.
Mrs. Millett's mother-in-law; q
neighbor, Mrs. Melvin Burroughs,
and the defendants husband Ed
ward all took the stand yesterday
and said that they had never
known Mrs. Millett to have a mole
on her face.
Mrs. Millett said she may have
had a pimple on her face at the
time of her arrest.
Judge Woodward said that there
was some doubt in my mind" and
asked Defense Attorney Joseph
B. Simpson, jr., to obtain any
photographs made of Mrs. Millett
during the time she served a SEN
tence in 1947 for an offense SIM
illar to the one she is now charged
with.

parliamentary jockeying for posi-
tion in the closely divided Senate
and House. The crowds of friends
relatives and general visitors were
considerably smaller and far less
bustling than in many former
years.
Among the 433 House members
sworn in were eight women, six
of them Republicans. Represent
ative-elect Crosser, Democrat, of
Ohio, was too i'll to attend but
will be sworn in at his home, in
accordance with special reso-
luton. The only other seat not
filled for the opening day was for
the 1st New York district.
Ernest Greenwood, Democrat,
narrowly defeated former Repre-
sentative Kingsland Macy, Repub-
lican, on the basis of election day
returns but the count is still tied
up in the courts. Three other
Representatives face possible chal-
lenges. although officially seated.
Butler Faces Possible Challenge.
The Senate swearing-in went
off smoothly, despite possible
challenge of the election of Sem
ator Butler. Republican, of Mary
land. s
After the brief Senate meeting
and during the long House de.
bate. the crowds thinned greatly
Legislators and spectators sought
closer views of the new color
schemes and fixtures. But such
things as the traditional snuff
box were still on hand. Senators
also found that electrical inlets
are available for loudspeaker
equipment such as the House has.
The Senate showed no disposition
to raise its collective voice by
adopting those devices.
The largest of the opening day
luncheons at the Capitol yester-
day was that of Senator Chavez,
Democrat. of New Mexico in honor
of the new Spanish Ambassador
Jose F. Lequerica. Guests in
cluded Secretary of State Ache
son, Stanton Griffls. United States
Ambassador to Spain, and ambas-
sadors from many Central and
South American countries. Chair
man Connally of the Foreign Re-
lations Committee headed a group
of guests from the Senate.

Brighter colors and modernized
surroundings In the Senate and
House gave way In the 82d Con-
gress today to legislative tradition
and respect for veteran service.
At the opening of the new Con-
gress yesterday, the $5 million
dollar face-lifting on the ceilings
and walls of the two chambers
almost outshone the faces, old and
new, of the legislators.
Further reflection showed today
that Speaker Rayburn and Vice
President Barkley set the more
lasting tones and tenure at the
solemn start of the session.
Mr.. Rayburn, on January 80,
will have served as Speaker longer
than any predecessor. His eight
years and three months, broken
only by a two-year step-down
during the 80th Congress, will
have outdistanced Henry Clay and
Joseph G.. Cannon.
Martin Complimentary.
That pending record came to
the official attention OF the House
in an introductory speech by Re-
publican Floor Leader Martin. A
former Speaker. Mr.. Martin con-
fessed he had had "ideas" prior
to the November election that he
might be back this year in the
exalted position" In any event.
Congress was fortunate, he de-
clared. to have a man Of Mr..
Rayburn's courage and soundness
in this hour of confusion and
crisis"
Speaker Rayburn, after the
House election in which he de-
feated Mr.. Martin, referred to his
Office as a position of some
times terrifying responsibility" He
promised to conduct it "in a
manner pleasing to you and to
my Country" He urged his fellow
members to clay aside little diff
ferences and all criticism that is
not constructive and helpful"
His further suggestion that
domestic disputes should not dis
tract Congress from strong united
action on world issues ran into a
severe test later in the afternoon.

Recall Of Court
On Annexation
County Attorney Cite.
Provision for Possible
Modification of RuIine

A request to reconvene the an
nexation court which awarded
| 71a square miles to Alexandria
is being considered by Fairfax
County attorneys.
A member of the three-judge
annexation court, Fairfax Circuit
Court Judge Paul E. Brown, said
that Robert ]. McCandlish. jr..
attorney for the county, had dis
cussed with him the possibility
of recalling the court.
Mr.. McCandlish pointed to a
State law providing that court
"can modify or vacate" a decision
within 81 days after a final
order"
Final Order Dec. 10.
The final order was entered
December 10. Therefore, said Mr..
McCandlish. the final decree "re-
mains under control of the an
nexation court" until Tuesday.
The annexation court set the
effective date of the transfer as
January L. When the New Year
arrived, Alexandria moved into the
area and posted signs at the new
boundaries.
Fairfax officials said they had
not expected the city to act be-
cause the county had told the
court on the day the final order
was entered that it planned to ap-
peal the decision to the State Su-
preme Court. The appeal was
filed Tuesday.
Both Claim Jurisdiction.
Both the city and county now
claim jurisdiction over the area.
commemorative Attorney Hugh
B. Marsh told the County Board
of Supervisors yesterday t.lat he
had directed Maj. Carl r. Nc
Intosh. chief OF police. "to go
ahead and patrol the area"
Chief Mcintosh said, however,
that I'VE are not patrolling be-
cause it would just start a fight,
but I'm not saying we wouldn't
go in there If something serious
happened The chief added that
his principal concern is that the
residents of the area are being
provided with police protection.
Both the city and county have
said that they plan to pay the
teachers of Lee-Jackson elemen-
tary school. the only school in
the disputed territory.
Comments on Appeal.
G. Wallace Carper, chairman of
the Board of Supervisors. said that
"the city is going ahead at its own
expense" Mr.. Marsh added that,
I'VE noted an appeal and what
Alexandria does it does at its own
peril"
Mr.. McCandlish. who did not
attend the meeting, said later that
if the Supreme Court agrees to
hear the case. "even if Alexandria
wins, the court may set a new
effective date"
Supervisor Maurice Fox said he
questioned the legality of Alex
andria's move into the area be-
cause there has been no financial
settlement, as provided in the
annexation decree.

New Power Scope
Announced BY Mossberg

A new 4-power scope that can
be used for either low or high
mounting has been announced
by O. F. Mossberg & Sons, Inc.
The scope also features much
sturdier and more heavily con-
structed mount, a casting instead
of stamping. All lens surfaces
are hard coated and it has Moss
berg's patented internal adjust
ment feature.
This new Mossberg scope,
Model 2M4, replaces two scopes
previously made, the 5M4, for
low mounting and the 8M4, for
high mounting. Hence the 2M4
fits almost every make of rifle
up to $500 caliber.
The rigid 2M4 mount is easily
and quickly removed by taking
out two screws. Adjustments in
the mount can compensate for
errors in mounting the scope on
a rifle. Retail price is $9.95.

favorable to fish. However the
temperature in shallow lakes
varies considerably, ranging
from 30 to 90 degrees depend
ing on the season OF the year.
One of the top rewards for
the winter fisherman, he says,
is the more consistent superior
flavor of fish taken in this sea-
son. He attributes this TO diff
ferent feeding habits. Certain
types of algae which fish feed
on some during the summer can
taint the flesh.

New Proposal
Menaces Birds

Herb Russell, chairman of To-
ledo Steel Tube unit, Local IL,
urges all sportsmen to protest
Immediately passage of House
Bill No. sc in the Ohio Legisla-
ture-a bill which might wipe
out in a single season the game
birds of Ohio.
The bill, introduced by Opal
Munday, places control of "nox-
ious weeds" in the hands of the
Sanitary District.
Trouble with the proposal,
Russell declared, is that fence
row cover for pheasants and
other game birds, as well as the
song-bird population for that
matter, could be sprayed under
the terms of the Bill. Nesting
birds, feed, and all protection
could be wiped out in pro-
gram intended only to fight un-
wanted weeds.
Protest should be made by
letter or postcard to your State
Representative, or by mail or
telephone to Opal Mundy her
self, Russell said. She lives in
Toledo.
