Approval Of Delegates
BY staff Correspondent Of IN. Star

ANNAPOLIS, Mar. s.-Mont-
gomery County legislators have
the edge today in an uphill fight
for an elected county School
Board.
In an unexpected action, the
House of Delegates yesterday
tossed aside an adverse report of
its Education Committee and
voted 81 to SO in favor of a bill
calling for selection Of School
Board members in non-partisan
balloting.
The measure carries a referen-
dunn clause calling for a county
wide vote in November.
Votes were tailed after As min
utes Of sharp debate, marked by
clashes between Montgomery and
Prince Georges delegates. A few
minutes later. the House ap-
proved amendments providing for
election Of two School Board
members at large and one from
each Of the county's five council
districts.
| The result was a smashing vic.
tory for Mrs. Leona Rush, the
only woman member of the coun.
tvs all-Republican delegation.
Mrs. Rush had buttonf1oled he,
colleagues increasingly since the
Education Committee said "no'
last week. She had waged he,

that under present law. School
Board members in all of the
States % counties and in Bal

Governor. She also overcame op-
position from DR.. Thomas G.

rate, the defense expenditure Il
being stepped up to $24, ,O94, 600, ).
900, or $4,244, ,0O0,0 900 more thar
last year.
(Dollar-ruble comparisons are
difficult because of Russia s
vastly different economic stand
ards. They must take into &C
count, also. the wide use of
forced labor, lower living stand
ards, cheaper materials and the
lack Of actual exchange between
the ruble and the dollar.
president Truman has asked
Congress to approve q budget
Of $71,594, 600, 900. Of which $41,-
42l 100000 is for defense and
$7.46l ,000. 600 is earmarked for
arms aid to friendly nations.)
Prime Minister Stain and
other top Politburo members at.
tended the Supreme Soviet (Par.
liament) session at which the
budget was presented. They heard
Zverev give this picture of antic.
ipated Soviet finances:

Zverev In his budget addres.
said, in contrast to cApitalistit
nations, the majority Of the ex.
penditures are going to economic
development and social and cul.
tural measures.
He contended that the United
States is spending so times as
much on arms as 1t did before
World War II and accused the
United States OF forcing Britain
and France to double their arma-
ment expenditures.
Zverev said savings accounts ot
Soviet citizens are now 1875 billion
rubles or more than twice theii
prewar level. He estimated 43.1

come from direct taxes on ths
population including income taxes
Among other taxable sources hi
mentioned 48 billion rubles were

stressed the Importance of every
one making a will; then she gave
pointers on making a will. A very
helpful chart was prepared so that
we might understand more thor
oughly how the State of North
Carolina requires persons prop
erty to be divided if no will has
been made. Miss Kirby and Bob
Smith gave the group some in
formation on join bank accounts,
deeds, bonds and securities. At
the close of the talk there was a
discussion period so that each
person could bring up questions.
