after all
The Marine lost his right eye
when hand grenade exploded be-
fore him somewhere in Korea last
November % and now surgeons at
Bethesda Naval Hospital are try
ing to save the use of his left eye.

| for several months.
Georgians had planned a big
Charlie Monroe Day" in Savan-
nah but Bethesda medical officers
put a stop to the plans. Pvt. Mon
roe expressed wish to see that
Christmas tree.
When the Savannah Air Force
Base officers were approached on a
plan to fly Pvt. Monroe's mother
to Washington along with the
tree. officials at the big B-29 base
were unable to comply because
regulations forbid such use of
military aircraft.
1t was then that personnel at
the Savannah base stepped into
the picture. In a short time more
than sufficient funds had been
contributed to pay for Mrs. Mon
foe's fare on a commercial plane.
Eastern Airlines said they would
carry the tree for free-lights and
all.
Mrs. Monroe was scheduled to
arrive at National Airport at 1890
pm. today and be met by mill
tary officials and Representative
Preston, Democrat. of Georgia.

Construction Begins
Tomorrow on Bridge
For Wheeler Road

Work will start tomorrow on
construction of a new Wheeler
road bridge at Oxon Run, High
way Director j. N. Robertson said
yesterday. The road will be closed
at that point Thursday.
The replacement, of the old
bridge will cost $77,424 and is
slated for completion in nine
months. BY then, the Highway
Department hopes to have fin
Iished a 100000 widening, straight
ening and repaving job on Wheeler
road from the District line tt
Alabama avenue.
Widening the road to AZ feet
will begin in the spring, Mr.. Rob-
ertson said. The width now varies
from 2 to 40 feet. The bridge will.
have 44-foot roadway also, with
6-foot sidewalks on each side
The old bridge is 1874 feet wide
in the roadway, and has one s.
foot sidewalk.
The bridge will be raised several
feet to avoid the hazards of flood
ling. The bridge built there in
1906 was washed out in 1888, &C
cording to the Highway Depart
ment. Temporary structures were
washed out twice before the pres
ent bridge was built in 1888.
The bridge and road work are
Federal aid projects. which means
the Federal Government will
match funds with the District to
pay for it. Wheeler road is a
feeder route from Maryland to the
District, connecting with Alabama
avenue.
Signs will be erected by the
Traffic Department showing de-
tours when the bridge site is
closed.

Planning Group Citizens Group
Hears Criticism To Study Plan
OF Mall ParkinqFor Milk Board
Also Acts to Examine
Question Of Protection
For Consumers Here

The Federation of Citizens AS
sociations last night decided to
study a proposal that a milk con-
troll board be established for the
District
The action came on the heels
of a half-cent increase in the
price of home-delivered milk
jumping the price of quart to
I2212 cents-which the Virginia
Milk Commission granted yester-
day. District dairies, as in the
past. began falling in line by
boosting their price of home
delivered milk also.
The federation also decided to
study the whole question of high
prices and see what protection
plan for the consumer could be
recommended.
Calls Milk a Luxury"
Thomas B. Scott of Glover
Park told the delegates his asso-
citation had forwarded a resolu-
ton to the federation asking
either for a District control board
or an open market for milk meet
ing United States Public Health
standards. He urged all member
associations to take action on the
subject, and declared:
The situation has reached the
point where milk is a luxury"
Mr.. Scott said the situation
whereby District dairies always
followed the price pattern set by
the Virginia Milk Commission
made Washington residents sec
ond-class citizens kowtowing to
the Virginia commission
Virtual Monopoly Charged.
Mr.. Scott said the District Com
missioners, by continuing to keep
the market closed to milk not pro-
duced on farms inspected by the
District eHalth Department., have
favored the Maryland and Virginia
Milk-Producers Association. The
result has been the creation of
virtual monopoly, he declared.
Mrs. Leslie B. Wright, of Forest
Hills, said it was time the fedora
ton did something to take care
of the consumers. She suggested
a special committee be appointed.
However, the delegates voted to
send both matters to existing
committees and Herbert P. Lee
man, federation president, urged
delegates to bring them to the
attention of the individual asso-
Citations.
Mr.. Leeman also asked the dele
gates to have their associations
take some action on the PROPOSE
ton that the Federal Government
should appropriate 40 per cent of
the District budget as its share in
the expense of running the city. |
Withholds Endorsements.
The federation voted against
recommending any individual for
the post of peoples counsel. The
federation normally has refused
w AAoOI DC ulOltIOQdlS 1OI SUCH
posts.
The motion to consider in
dorsing someone was made by
Edmund j. Wells of Shepherd
Park. 1t actually marked the open
ing of a campaign to have Vernon
V. Baker of Shepherd Park and
chairman of the federation's Pub
lie Utilities Committee, named to
the post.
Mr.. Baker filed a suit in his
name, but for the federation,
which was successful in upsetting
the gas rate increase granted by
the Public Utilities Commission
in 1949. Both the P. U. c. and the
Washington Gas Light &C. are
taking the case to the Supreme
Court.
Elmer F.. Richter of Southwest
was named chairman of the Fire
and Police Committee by Mr.. Lee
man. Benjamin c. Cruicksharks
of Manor Park was named vice
chairman of the Suffrage Com
mittee.

O n e tie

The world has praised the
dead sacrifices that have blessed
mankind. But Paul writes in the
first verse of Romans IL of a
living sacrifice. A man should
be ready to give his life, if need
be, for Jesus, but the apostle
writes of living for Jesus day
after day in consecrating all his
powers to the Masters use. This
is service that demands keep
ing the body free from harmful
indulgences.
And in a sacrifical service a
man will not be conformed to
the world, but will be trans
formed through the renewing of
his mind. The foregoing is we'll
adapted to indicate the spirit a
man should have and the divine
assistance he should seek if he
undertakes. to be temperate
man, rightly using his time and
his powers for others.
In l Corinthians 8 Paul dis
cusses at some length the mat
ter of eating meats offered to
idols. 1t was customary, after
animals had been offered to
idols, to sell the meat in the
markets. The most of the meat
used in Corinth was of the kind
indicated. Some of the Christians
believed it a sin to eat such
meats. And they were faced
with a problem when invited to
eat with non-Christians, who set
meat before them
1t was PauPs judgment that
he would rather abstain than to
give a brother cause for offense.
Such a policy may be recon-
mended.
