Calls Confession Correct.
Proctor testified yesterday, while
the new trial motion was before
the court. that a confession" he
made to police was substantially
correct. The confession admitted
taking part in the crime and hit
ting Mr.. Schomber with a heavy
broom. Proctor said Allen induced
him to deny the confession and
change his story.
Allen also took the stand yes
terday and denied he had sug-
gested to Proctor that he change
his story.
Attorney Roger Robb, who was
appointed by the court to represent
Proctor some time after the trial,
commended that his client might
well have been convicted of the
lesser charge of second-degree
murder if he had not changed his
story,

Switch 10 Kenland
News in clover seed production
was the switch over from Cumber-
land to Kenland red clover as the
variety for certification. In 1949
there were IS growers with 276 acres
of certified Kenland and in 1850
there were So growers with 851 acres.
In the overall picture some 81
growers with 1858 acres were pro-
ducing both Kenland and Cumber-
land certified red clover seed in
1850.
A certified grass seed program
was launched in 1850 after several
years of planning. Foundation seed
of Lincoln Bronze and Alta Fescue
was obtained and distributed mostly
in Flathead county. Out of a total
OF $50 acres seeded to Lincoln Bronze,
II growers with 127 acres finally
passed inspection. This is a coop
erative project between the county
extension service and the Kalispe1l

undertaken the problem of plant

Ride Is Mistake
In Fact, a Whole
Series of Them

A 22-year-old truck driver
made some grievous mistakes
early today.
His first mistake was to speed
in what later turned out to be a
truck borrowed" from his em-
ployers. Two motorcycle police
men, Pvts. Norman F.. Kraft and
John Bush, stopped him and told
him to follow them to head
quarters.
His second mistake 'came when
he disobeyed their orders. Instead
of following, he turned off his
lights and sped away. Truck and
motorcycles hurtled through the
streets to the $500 block of E
street NE.
Making the turn at that inter-
section. the driver made his third
mistake. He misjudged his dis
tances, smashed into a parked
Cadillac, bounced off that and hit
another car and finally rammed
into a stone wall in front of 2506
E street NE.
After knocking down the wall,
the driver stripped off his coat
and fed.
Police know who he is because
he made a fourth mistake. He
left his social security card in
the pocket of his coat and two
women passengers in the truck.

D.. c. Takes World Leadership
For Telephones Per Capita

San Francisco, one finds both are
compressed into relatively small
land areas-Washington 81 square
miles and San Francisco, 68.
That, say telephone engineers, is
the basic reason why the cities
are crammed with telephones.
Both cities have a high residential,
apartment, hotel and business de-
velopment. Almost every apart
ment and hotel room has a phone.
In Washington, Government offices
are heavily stocked with phones.
Then, too, Washington leads
many cities in average income,
which has a definite bearing on
the number of subscribers.
The Washington figure, it was
pointed out, does not ever include
such big Government installations
as the Pentagon which is outside
the, area OF the District. That
building alone has 36.400 tele-
phones.

State S Biggest Bank
Outside Baltimore
Set for Nearby Area
Way Cleared for Merger
Of Suburban NutionuI,
Prince Georges Trust
By Donald B. Hodley

Merger of the Suburban Ma
tional Bank of Montgomery
County and the Prince Georges
Bank & Trust Co. of Prince
Georges County is expected with
in 60 days. it was learned today.
The new $50 million institution
would be the largest in Maryland
outside of Baltimore and the sixth
largest in the Washington area.
Way Paved by Bill.
Way was paved for the merger
when a bill to permit the merger
of a national bank and a State
institution passed the State Sen
ate Monday. 1t requires only the
Governors signature to become
a law.
In the meantime directors of
both banks planned special stock
holders meetings to approve
changes in capital designed to
facilitate exchange of their stock
for shares of the big new insti-
tuition on a share-for- share basis.
T. Howard Duckett. president
of the Prince Georges Bank and
board chairman of the Suburban
National, is expected to become
board chairman of the new insti-
tuition. Fred L. Lutes, president
of the Suburban National is slated
to become president.
The new institution will have
IL Offices in the adjoining Mary
land counties. In addition to its
maip office in Silver Spring,
Suburban has Offices in Takoma
Park, Bethesda and Wheaton and
a facility at the Naval Ordnance
Laboratory. Another Office is to
be opened shortly at Piney
Branch and Flower avenue.
To Include Trust Department.
Main Office of the Prince
Georges Bank is in Hyattsville.
It also has two Offices at Mount
Rainier, and others at Greenbelt.
College Park and West Hyatts-
vile.
While authorized to do so, the
Suburban National has never
qualified to furnish trust services
In fact the only other trust serv-
ice offered in Montgomery county
has been through the Farmers
Banking g. Trust Co. of Rockville.
However, the Prince Georges
Bank has long maintained such
services, and the merger will
bring an already functioning
trust department to the new in,
stitution.

Steel Companies To|t
To Reserve Bigger
Share for Defense
Strict Credit Controls
Applied to All New
Commercial Building
By Francis P. DouqIos

The National Production Au-
thority today ordered steel COM
panies to reserve larger shares of
their output to fill military pro-
duction orders.
The order requires producers to
reserve fixed percentages of their
so-called "order boards" for vari-
Gus steel products to fill defense
rated orders.
Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve
Board placed in effect credit re-
strictionS on new commercial
building. This conceded with the
effective date of NPA's regulations
licensing new commercial struc-
lures. The starting of such build
ing has been banned since Janu-
ary 13, pending the setting up OF
the licensing arrangement.
The steel order calls for in
creases in defense priorities rang
ing from 2 per cent for hot and
cold rolled carbon sheets to Is
per cent for alloy steel mechanical
tubing and forms for making it
Where formerly a company had
to reserve 35 per cent of this
tubing production, now it must
reserve 60 per cent.
Rayon Yarn Quota Boosted.
The percentage reserve of allo!
sheet bars, however, has been re.
duced from 35 to per cent be.
cause of changes in defense re.
quirements.
The NPA took these other ac'
tions:
/. Ordered producers of higl
tenacity rayon yarn to devote /!
per cent instead of 10 per cen
of their output to priority orders
This yarn is used in tires, para
chutes and airplane fuel cells.
2. Told motor truck manufac
turers they would have complet'
information soon on truck re
quirements for defense and de-
fense supporting activities.

servers of the China scene began
to express curiosity today about
the whereabouts of Red China
leader Mao TZe-tung.
They noted he had failed to ap-

Reports in this strategic vantage
point said last month that Mao
had gone or was going to- Moscow
to confer with Prime Minister
Stain on the Korean war and
other Asiatic developments.
The reports appeared to have
been the result of speculation at
