Virginia Group 10 Try
Again for Agreement
On Sewage Survey

Another meeting Of nearby Vir-
ginia's Interim Committee on
Sewage Disposal is expected to be
called in a final effort to win
united support for an engineering
survey Of the areas pollution
problems.
Robert w. Cox, Arlington County
Board member who Is chairman Of
the committee, said he still felt
something can be worked out and
planned to invite the rest Of the
committee to another meeting.
Although the committee was
unanimous in recommending that
an engineering survey be made.
members were unable to argree on
"a choice of firms for the job.
"A majority Of the committee
members last month recommended
joint employment Of Alexander
Potter Associates and Greeley &
Hansen to do the job for $50 900
in approximately six months.
New Concern Suggested.
The governing bodies of Alex
andria and Fairfax promptly in
Idorsed the firms recommended by
the Interim Committee majority,
and have agreed to put UP their
share of the cost.
The Arlington County Board.
however, has asked that Alvord,
Burdick & Howson be employed
at $4,000 for three months. The
Falls Church City Council has
not yet acted.
"This is too important a SUBJ
ject to let it die because we can
not get together" said Mr.. Cox.
He said that another meeting
now could help clear up some
misunderstanding.
Welcome New Meeting.
Albert A. Smoot of Alexandra
and G. Hubbard Massey Of Fair
fax, who are members Of the COM
mittee, said they would welcome
another meeting.
Action by the State Water Con.
troll Board meanwhile made i
apparent that q prompt decision
will have to be made on the re,
gional survey. The water boart
notified Alexandria yesterday thai
it was dissatisfied with the city:
March progress report on pollu.
ton abatement. The report had
outlined the work Of the Interim
Committee.
Mr.. Smoot said Alexandria plans
to build o separate sewage disposal
plant of its own. but felt the city
and all other jurisdictions -
should await final action on the
joint proposal before acting sepa-
|rately.
Arlington is in a similar posi-
ton. with plans just about ready
for an addition to its existing dis
posal plant. Mr.. Cox estimated
the county may be able to ask
for bids on the disposal plant
addition in two weeks.

eve found we liked each other"
she explained, land had the same
things in common. We both liked
music - George is a wonderful
piano player and plays classical,
as well as popular music. We like
to work with kids and both like
sports. George was a four-letter
man both in high school-he went
to St. Xavier's in Cincinnati-and
in college, playing football, base
ball, basketball, and tennis"
Beth had to have help to COM
plete the twenty-five word state
ment required by the rules of the
Birds Eye Contest, but Mrs. Rat
terman told her not to worry. eff
you can't think of any other rea-
sons why we should call the little
boy, George your mother will"
The contest, which closes De-
cember 16, 1850, offers contestants
513 chances to win with three
grand prizes: a first prize of
$500; a second prize of $500;
and a third prize of $500. In addi-
ton, there are ten prizes of $50
each, and 500 prizes of $40 each.

A football helmet may not be
the last word in writing desks,
but George. Ratterman, ace quar-
terback for the New York Yanks,
and his two-year-old daughter,
Beth, think it's just the thing to
bring them luck in entering the
$4,000 "Name the Kids" contest
sponsored nationally by Birds Eye
Frosted Foods. The company is
conducting the contest as a result
of many inquiries from all over
the country asking for the names
of the trio of kids now featured
in their advertising.
The cartoon of the young foot
ball player - the only boy in the
threesome - caught Beth's eyes
the first time she saw him on tele-
vision. "He looks just like Daddy"
she said. II want to name him
George because my Daddy is the
best football player in the world.
If he's named George he might
become as good a player as my
Dad"
Beth may be right about her
father, too. In the few years he
has been playing professional
football he has already set five
single-season records for the New
York Yanks.
Ratterman set a record this
season by tossing four touchdown
passes during a single game. He
is continuing in the pro field the
great performance exhibited dur
ing his college days at Notre
Dame.

VICORP HAS A NEW PRESIDENT

VICORP HAS A NEW PRESIDENT
GORDON M. E was yesterday named president
of the Virgin Islands Corporation. The appointment was no
doubt an attempt to soothe all sides. Mr.. Skeoch is a native
of St. Croix, and has had first hand acquaintance with rural
life and the manufacture of rum, having been one of the own
eS of the Diamond diStllerieS.
70 MANY, the appointment of Mr.. Skeoch is disappoint-
ing, and there might be reason enough. People do not easily
forget, particularly things Of a public nature. Their thoughts
turn back to the days when president Skeochs father was one
Of the most avid and bitter opponents of the bill which created
the Virgin Islands Company. The late Governor Pearson, in
trying to get the bill passed, had made the mistake of advanc-
ing the thought that the new company would help the econo-
my of the island, and be particularly effective in raising the
standard of living Of the working man by giving steady en-
ployment. Such an expression naturally brought grave mis-
givngs to those who view any attempt to help the working
man as dangerous.
U TIMES have changed, the Virgin ISLANDS Company
now Corporation, came into being, and has functioned for
the past II years. In that time a number of presidents have
come and gone, some deeply concerned with the purpose and
ideals Of the Corporation, others evidencing no particular
interest in any direction. The time has come for the Corpora
ton to take a final step which would indicate that the purpose
for its coming into being has meaning. Probably the appoint
ment Of Mr.. Skeoch might be to reach that very point.
WHAT considerations were that brought about the
appointment, the release did not say. Usually in these matters
qualification and ability, training, experience, outlook, good
public relations, and politics have their place. Which of these,
singy or in combination, were taken into consideration we
cannot say. The fact remains that the Virgin Islands Corpora
ton has a new president.
LIKE NAM HER in St. Croix and the Virgin Is
lands we hope that the new president will broaden his horizon,
and catch the spirit of the tremendous task which confronts
him. The presidency of the Virgin Islands Corporation can be
q good-paying job, or it can be a position which brings much
, 1951-10-17

of its influence to bear upon
the future of St. Croix. Which
Of these it will be depends up
on what the new president
does with it.

Jenner Backs Charge
'Whitewash' in Probe
Defeated Tydings

A Republican member Of the
Senate Rules Committee today
packed the charges of Senator
Mccarthy, Republican, of Wiscon-
sin that former Senator Tydings
If Maryland "wnitewasned" the
1949 investigation Of alleged Com
munlst infiltration into the Gov.
ernment.
Senator Jenner of Indiana de-
clared that "the Maryland sena-
torial election of 1850 essentially
was a demonstration Of how
doubtful conduct in respect to the
Communist issue can, and in fact
did, destroy public confidence in
a United States Senator and mark
him for defeat"
Opposed Report.
Senator Jenner was a member
of the Rules Committee which last
summer adopted. 8 to 8. the report
of a bipartisan subcommittee
criticizing the conduct of Senator
Buffers successful campaign ir
Maryland against Mr.. Tydings.
Senator Jenner was one Of the
three dissenters, but he did moi
join with Senator Mccarthy. an
other member of the full Rules
Committee. in filing a statement
which was included III the report
under the heading. Individual
Views of Mr.. Mccarthy"
AS to Mr.. Tydings' conduct OF
the investigation into Senator Nc
Carthy's charges Of Red infi!tra-
ton into the Government. Sena-
tor Jenner said:
HE knew what his duty was,
and he evaded it. His evasion
was so obvious that the public at
once detected it. His conduct
proved a decisive factor in the
ensuing Maryland election, and
he was defeated.
What it all amounts to is that
the administration has managed
to completely compromise the
Democratic Party on the issue of
communism"
Charges Long Suppression.
He added that it would have
been scarcely possible" for Sen
ator Mccarthy to have attracted
national attention on that issue
"if it had not been that for nearly
20 years (of Democrats in the
White House) suspicion, anger
and Illustration had been building
up in the minds Of the American
people"
The Democratic Party, Senator
Jenner said, must purge itself
on the question (of communism
before the country will ever trust
them again."
The Indiana lawmaker said
Senator Tydings. as chairman of
the subcommittee which investi-
gated Senator McCarthy's charges,
had before him the greatest op-
portunity which any Senator In
this generation has had to render
a public service of inestimable
value and to win the everlasting
gratitude of his countrymen."
