Three Weeks Away

Since that time, however, work
has moved ahead steadily and OPP
ening is less than three weeks
away on the $479,502 project. Of
ficials of the Commission said
that while construction difficulties
have not been Encountered to any
appreciable extent, some confu-
sion over the ID or 20 rights Of
way which had to be obtained
served as a delaying factor.
While the Commission has not
made a survey which would show
the amount of traffic which will
be taken from Rockville main
streets and thus remove traffic
congestion in the downtown area,
it was stated that such counts as
have been made show that some
9,762 cars travel Route 240 at the
northern edge of town each "a
hours and about 1858 per day
pass over the southern edge Of
town when Route 1877 branches off
of No. 240.
Rights of Way Cost
The bypass which was started
in July, 1850, is being constructed
by the Suburban Engineering and
Construction Company. The con-
tractors bid for the 1887 miles Of
road was $212.61O. Engineering
fees, which the Commission said
It charges off to overhead, amount
ed to $31,891. This would seem
to leave balance of $235,00O as
a cost of acquiring the rights of
way necessary for construction.
Original discussions on the pro-
iect were aimed at Rockville's as
sumption of at least a part of the
right of way costs, but Commits
sion officials who discussed the
project with the Sentinel could not
recall whether final determination
had been made.
Town authorities, however, said
the rights of way costs would be
borne by the State.
Celebration Planned
In the meantime, 1t was learned
that while celebration here at
the time of the opening of the by
pass is planned, no definite seized.
uling Of an events program has
been discussed. This is expected
to be done, however, when the
State Roads Commission gives the
Town official notice of a compile
ton date.
In the meantime, Roads officials
said that the Commission will be
glad to participate in whatever OPP
ening ceremonies are planned by
the Town and will lend a hand in
the matter of having State top
brass here for the dedication.

The summer slack-off is over,
Mr.. Miller said, and officials, vol
unteers, and others will meet on
the second Monday in October at
Town offices to plan for accelera-
.tion of activities.
300 Workers
Altogether, the morale of Rock
ville's some 300 civil defense
workers has remained the highest
of any community in the area, MIR.
Miller said, and workers contin-
ue to approach possible disaster
problems seriously.
In November, Mr.. Miller stated
the organization will hold it's first
dummy run" and in this way viii
test the practical features of the
Rockville program. He said the
Registration Section" which, in
event of a bombing attack on the
metropolitan area, will function as
clearing house for a possible s
or 10000 refugees from downtown.
will stage an all-out test of its
facilities then. An attempt will
be made to use local youngsters
as test refugees to find weak spots
in plans.
The Registration Section, if dis
aster comes, will become a key
factor in registering the. influx of
evacuees and by this means will
be able to locate individuals and
get families back together who
might be separated in the confu-
sion Of evacuation.
First National Test
Mr.. Miller said the projected
test is the first of its kind to be
tried in the country since civil de-
Tense. became the watchword OF
the population.
The Registration Section, he
added, will also be able to assist
in the coordinating of welfare
work which, in emergency, would
create overwhelming problems.
AS plans move apace, Mr.. Mil
Ter said the basic problems of set
ting up emergency hospitals in the
colored and white high schools in
Rockville are we'll organized. The
town has appropriated $500 to
stock these with emergency medi-.
cal supplies and State and Federal
governments are furnishing match
ing funds.
Medical Supplies Purchased
Under the able direction of DR..
,Sordon Rosenberger and Mrs. Joe
FOawson, Mr.. Miller said purchases
of emergency medical supplies are
being made, but only those of a
Notwithstanding nature. He en-
phasized the fact that the Rock
vile program is based not on how
much-can-be-spent, but on the
idea that volunteers and home in
dustries can furnish what is need
ed for an efficient program more
economically.
In the meantime, civil defense
officials are appealing especially
to womens' and girls organiza-
tons here to volunteer for the
jobs necessary to put the emer-
gency hospitals on a sound work
ing basis. There is still need for
many volunteers, especially war
dens, Mr.. Miller added.
Local residents can be proud of
the fact, Mr.. Miller pointed out,
that their willingness to accept
the responsibility of civil defense
and to maintain and even increase
the tempo of their interest has
resulted in a number of National
Naccolades and the distinction of
having one of the most workable
defense plans in the United States.

vast expenditure each year. For the
Presidents party, that more than
two million bureaucratic payrollers
represents from four to eight mil
lion votes in the next election. Nat
urally the representative of that
party in congress will do nothing
about it.
The Republicans in congress
would welcome the opportunity of
separating that more than two mil
lion employees from the federal
payrolls if that could be accom-
plished without abolishing the jobs
they hold. They would like to dis
pense with the present job holders
presumably members of the Demo-
cratic party, but they want to pre-
serve their jobs so they may be
filled the next election - if their
party wins. They are more inter-
ested in building bulwark of votes
that can insure their hold on the
national government, than in ma
tional economy.
So it is that, for one reason or
another there is no real desire for
economy, either on the part of the
President or either party as rep
resented in congress. What we hear
is only meaningless talk. There has
been, and will be no real perform
ance. There is no leadership point
ing in that direction by the Presi-
dent or the members of congress
represented by either political par
ty. All are playing the game of poll
tics. rather than thinking of the in
terests of the nation and its people
Should the people awaken and real
ize what is happening, one or both
parties might be induced to take
action, rather than only talk.

GRASSROOTS
By Wright A. Patterson

THE PRESENT DECADE is des-
1 tined to go down as the most
profligate in our history. In Wash
ington, the halls of congress and
in the executive departments, there
is talk only of economies. but it is
all talk and no action.
The President talks an excellent
line of economy. He tells congress
to spend less on home projects,
and then recommends new ways
and places for appropriations. Con-
gress talks much about the need
for economies, and then votes all
and more than the President has
asked 1t results in a merry 60
round of tax, and tax, and tax. and
spend, and spend. In the end, we are
destined not to pay as we 60, but to
build up more national indebted
ness for our children, through sew
eral generations to pay, or possibly,
to repudiate. We are travelling the
road to national bankruptcy, with
no one willing to apply the brakes.
Congress insists it will cut
the Presidents budget by as
much as seven billions, the
President dares congress to cut
it by as much as one dollar.
And the chances are that in
stead Of cutting, congress will,
by the end of the session,
through the needless items pro-
vided for in the usual "pork"
bill, add more millions or bill
lions.
For many years, through "pork"
appropriations we have attempted
what we have termed flood control
without any perceptible approach
to actual accomplishment, and we
will have similar appropriations at

The doll house size "Chil-
dren's Church" at Milton,
Mass, is the first church In
the country founded exclusive
ly for children. They sing their
hymns, read the scripture and
conduct their own prayers.
Above the youthful choir files
out of its own church, headed
for its parent church where the
young people sometimes sing
for special services.
its dignity There may not be much
technical perfection to the 15-voice
choir with its wavering childish
trebles and uncertain adolescent
altos but there is immense dignity.
There is the same dignity about
the congregation seated in the small
pews. AS the majestic tones Of
their own Hammond organ swell
up, Observation-Disclosures girls
sit quietly in their pews with none
of the fidgeting and giggling that
often characterizes youngsters at
tending religious services. Solemn
faced boys pay determined atten-
ton to what is going on before
them, mindful that they are pres
ent In their own church instead Of
that Of their elders. Even the five
year Odds are conscious Of the dig
nifty of their position in this, their
own religious world.
Children from to IS years old
lead the hymns, read the scripture
and conduct their own prayers. The
only adult taking part is Mrs.
Edyth Stonestreet, minister Of this
miniature congregation for the past
nine years.
THE CHILDREN'S CHURCH was
the idea of the late wife of the Rev.
Vivian Pomeroy, who is pastor Of
the First Parish Unitarian church
attended by the children's parents.
Mrs. Pomeroy believed children
should have service they could
understand and enjoy, one that
would be their very own. She was
instrumental in having an aban-
doned schoolhouse moved to the
church grounds adjoining the adult
church in 1887.
An entry way, steeple, window
shutters and paint were added to
transform it into the diminutive
house of worship. Everything about
it is scaled to children's size.
The children begin their service
in the larger church next door
where the Rev. Pomeroy delivers a
children's sermon but that is the
end Of their time in the adult re-
ligious world. Immediately after the
sermon, they file quietly out to
their own small church where they
take over. It's not game with
them. It is very serious matter
and each Of the 80 members reflects
his satisfaction with the arrange
ment in his feeling Of responsibility
about the conduct of his church.

the end Of this session. The result
will be increased, rather than less
spending.
But the people do not seem to
awaken to the fact that congress
and the President are spending
their money, that each new billion
of appropriations calls for more
taxes which the people must pay,
more ways through which to collect.
Now, in Washington, they are talk
ing about a manufacturers excise
tax, which would mean a new tax
to be added to the price Of the
Commodities the people buy. 1t is
not that such tax is not equitable.
1t is but another way of taking
money out of the pockets of the
people to pay for things we could
get along without.
We tax the people on the food
they eat, in order that congress
may provide higher prices for
farm products, and SO cater to
the farm vote without a thought
of the retaliation that may
come from the five urban votes
to each one on the farms. That
is a place where the urban vote
will, in time, demand de-
crease in expenditures.
When that urban revolt comes, as
it will, it will make a difference OF
billion or more in government
spending.
One place where economy could
be practiced, rather than only
talked, is in the federal payrolls.
With the bureaucratic departments
now employing we'll over two mil
lion civilians and increasing at the
rate of better than one thousand
a day, that "army" represents a
