Turkey Cool Toward
Middle East Role
BY the Associofed Press

ISTANBUL, Turkey, July 21.-
Turkey is pleased by Britain's S
withdrawal of objections to her
membership in the Atlantic pact
but is not yet ready to accept
British proposals that Turkey be
made the principal defender of the
Middle East.
British Foreign Secretary Nor
rison said Wednesday that Brit
ish objections to Atlantic pact
membership for Greece apd Tur-
key were withdrawn.
He said Britain believed Greece
should be assigned to Gen. Eisen-
hower's North Atlantic pact head
quarters command, but that Tur-
key should become the northern
defense outpost Of the Middle
East, independent of Gen. Eisen-
hover.
The official radio Ankara re-
f1ected official and popular opinion
yesterday when it said:
Turkey is at the same time q
European country as well as g
Middle Eastern country.
ut is as a European country
guarding Europe's southern flank
that she would join the Atlantic
pact. This will not prevent hel
lplaying an important role in the
defense of the Middle East when
the problems for this defense are

Expert Tells Senators
Tax-Exempf Groups
Gould Yield Billion
By the Assoeioied Press

The Senate Finance Committee
was told yesterday the Federal
Government could get Sill billion
in additional revenue annually by
taxing organizations now exempt
Ralph E. Burgess of New York
representing the National Tax
Equality Association, made the
estimate. The association long
has urged taxation of farm and
other co-operatives.
Mr.. Burgess, who is president
Iof the Commodity Marketing
Corp, said in a statement for the
committee the extra revenue
could be obtained In this way:
From mutual financial institu-
tions including banks. savings and
loan associations, credit unions
and national farm loan associa-
tions-$444 million.
From mutual fire and casual
.ty insurance companies-$6O mil
lion.
From cooperative marketing
and purchasing organizations
such as farm co-ops, consumer
Ico-opS and retailer owned co-ops
I-$264 million.
From Government corpora
Itions-$4l2 million.
Mr.. Burgess said the National
Tax Equality Association urges
that Government corporations be
taxed even though that would
mean taking money out of one
Government pocket and putting
1T in another. He said such cor
Iporations, since they pay no taxes
have a big price advantage over
private firms.
Mr.. Burgess testified his esti-
mate of 1854 million to be OBJ
tanned from taxing co-ops is much
more realistic than one of $11a
million made by the Treasury. He
said the Treasury officials ac-
cepted understated figures on
profits" made by the co-ops.

neither Councilman Knights apology
to Reverend Eyster nor his restrain
ed explanation of the timing and
reason for his motion.
Your charges that four members
of the Council were interested in
Shaping down the Mayor" with
holding "any act of courtesy" being
unwilling to "even wait for an open
ing prayer and attempting ito ram
through resolution" approach the
libelous. These Councilmen, on the
other hand, and to your certain
knowledge, have repeatedly been
subjected to many of the tactics your
editorial now wrongfully imputes to
them. 1t taxes credulity to suggest
that the untimely illness of any of
the four would not have been seiz-
ed on to block Council action in the
controversy. Whatever your opir-
ion of them, the fact remains that
these four Councilmen took the pre-
else action required and action no
different than would have been TAX
en- if the Mayor had been present.
For your information, a necessary
element in legal exactitude was the
nomination of Councilman Elliott to
be Mayor pro tempore. His refusal
to serve, without being followed by
his election over his refusal, might
have denied to the rest of the Coun-
Gil the ability to effectively vote on
the purported veto of September 9Th.
Councilman Elliott's refusal to
serve was in the direction of de-
priving his associates of the right
to vote effectively in order to pre-
serve his ineffective vote. You can
determine the justice in that situa-
ton. His election, followed on re-
fusal to serve by the election Of
Councilman Hellane, cancelled Out
this inequity.
Your concern and mine should be
that our processes of government be
scrupulously followed and enforced,
and that majority rule prevail. There
can be no compromise on this score.
The glazing wrong in this contro-
versy has been the effort to subvert
the majority will. Any other wrong
in the case compares with it as fav-
orably as would a parking violation
to the crime of high treason.
Respectfully,

In The Mail Bag

Mr.. H. S. Douglas, Editor
The Globe Independent
Hagerstown, Maryland
Dear Sir:
Neither the substance nor tone of
your editorial "a Disgrace to Ha-
gerstown" disclosed an effort to be
fair. The independence of your pa
per and sponsorship of matters of
public interest have served this COM
munity well. Your judgment in this
instance is, however, open to ques-
ton.
Habit and obvious precedent has
established the first Thursday of each
month as the regular" meeting date
of the Council. To have deferred it,
as you suggested, would have opened
up another technical avenue to Ie-
gal obstructionism in the coming mat
ter. 1t could have been commended
that the deferred meeting was not
regular" meeting and action or
a purported veto was therefore in
valid Confronted with opposition
inclined to use any device to cross
it up, the Council properly avoided
creating another such possible de-
vice.
Your reference to the invocation
practice was, as 1 see it, both unfair
and unfortunate. In this connec-
ton Councilman Elliott, and not his
associates, was off base. The meet
ings are to be opened with prayer,
but there is no meeting until the
presiding officer takes the chair and
calls the meeting to order. It is to
be noted that you failed to mention

gave the Hubs a first down on their
own 35 and at that point the first
string trotted off the field and the
second string came back in. After
the second string team had made
yards on two line bucks they were
penalized five yards for back field
in motion, and once again the first
string team took the field, and by
this time Frederick fans were really
booing.
The first string then took the ball
to midfield and then, for the third
time, Henry pulled them out of the
game and sent the second string
eleven back in. Hagerstown was
then penalized for taking too much
time out and they were forced to
kick, with Frederick taking over on
their own 46. A fifteen yard pen
atty for unnecessary roughness adj
vanced the ball into Hagerstown
territory and then WeddIe passed to
Ward for I'd and they ran the ball
for the extra point, making the score
Hagerstown %, Frederick IS.
The first string team came back
again and Frederick kicked to
Burke, who returned to his own IS
and then-believe it or not-the sec
ond string team came racing on the
field again and this brought on an
other penalty for too many times
out. On the next play the Hubs
were penalized back to their 11-yard
line for unnecessary roughness as
the final whistle blew.
Final Score - Hagerstown %,
Frederick ID.
The globe-independent. (Hagerstown, Md.) 1943-19??, 1951-10-18

Although the highly favored Ma
room and Gray team of Hagerstown
High School, in Frederick on Friday
night, took the measure of the Fred
erick High School Cadets by a score
of % to Is, the game was much clos
er than the score indicates, particu-
larly in the first three quarters.
The latter part of the fourth
quarter was turned into something
of a farce by Coach Mel Henry, who
shuttIed his first and second string
teams back and forth on almost
every play in the last ten minutes
of the game, to the accompanying
boos of the Frederick fans.
First Quarter
Frederick won the toss and elect
ed to receive and the Cadets took
Smiths kickoff on their 27-yard line.
A pass was attempted on the first
play from scrimmage, but was in
complete. Then, after gaining one
yard through the line, the Cadets
completed a pass from their own %
to Hagerstown's 48 for the first, first
down of the game. They then gain
ed three yards through the line, but
an attempted pass from Fisher to
Ward was intercepted by Burke on
his own 35-yard line and he raced
IS yards through the entire Fred
erick team for a touchdown. Cos
sard's kick was good and the score
was TO Hagerstown.
The Cadets took over but were
stopped cold and they kicked to Ha-
gerstown's Is and Burke returned
the ball to the AZ. Three line plays
by the Hubs left them short of
first down and Burke kicked to Fred
erick's 81. Again the Hubs forward
wall was too strong for the Cadets
and they were forced to kick, but
Frederick, for the second time,
stopped the Hubs cold and they had
to kick back, with Frederick taking
possession on their own 81. Unable
to do anything against the hard
charging Hagerstown line, the Ca
diets were again forced to kick and
Burke took the punt on his own As
and raced to Frederick's 81. An at
tempted pass into the end zone was
incomplete, but the ball was then
given to Spence, who bucked through
to the Cadets 34-yard line for first
down as the quarter ended, with the
score still 10 Hagerstown.
Second Quarter
After the teams had changed sides,
Frederick intercepted a Hagerstown
pass and raced all of the way to
Hagerstown's At yard line. On the
next play they moved down to Ha-
gerstown's 80 and another first down.
but a pass attempt was intercepted
by Burke who raced back to mid
field. On the second play from
the Hubs were penalized
Is yards for roughing and then
Burke kicked out of bounds on Fred
erick's 11yard line. A pass and
line buck gave the Cadets first
down on their own "A and then
Burgee broke through the line and
raced all the way to Hagerstown's
"a, but their scoring chance went
out the window when they fumbled
behind the line just as the half end
ed, with no change in the score.
Third Quarter
Shortly after the third quarter got
the ever-fghting Cadets
blocked Hagerstown kick and took
over on the Hubs 80. Two line plays
and a pass from Burgee to Ward put
the ball on the Hubs two-yard line
from where Burgee crashed through
