Moscow Expects Britain
To Stay on Same Course

MOSCOW, Oct. 27 (P.-The
Soviet news agency Tass told Rus
slams today of the defeat of Brit
aims Labor government and said
the result was not unexpected.
THE voters who gave their
votes to the Conservatives evi-
IDENTIFY have hopes OF change in
British policy" Tass said. How
ever, the Conservatives coming
into power hardly foreshadows
anything new since the Labor
government factually carried out
the policy Of the Conservatives.
The editorial warning against
expecting anything new, obviously
meant that the Russians expect
nothing particularly to come from
Mr.. Churchill's return to power.
The voters turned down the
Labor Party because it became
confused in its internal policy as
well as its foreign policy and did
not carry out its pledges to its
supporters, TaSS said.

Falls Church Lawyer
Charges Fund Misuse
By Old School Board

Douglas A. Clark, attorney for
the Falls Church School Emergen-
cy Committee. today accused the
city's former School Board Of lille
gally spending public funds.
He made the charge after it was
learned the old board vhicL re-
signed about two weeks ago, had
authorized payments for improve
ments to two temporary rented
school buildings and for legal fees
incurred in its dispute with the
City Council.
Mr.. Clark said he will refer the
matter to Commemorative Attor-
ney Hugh Marsh Of Fairfax Coun-
ty and ask him to take action to
recover the money.
According to Mr.. Clark, State
laws contain no provision permit
ting a School Board to use public
funds to pay for capital improve
ments to rented quarters.
He also contended a public Of
fetal cannot legally use taxpay-
ers' money to defend himself
against charges made by a tax
payer.
The School Emergency Com
mittee had initiated a Council in
vestigatien Of the old board by ac-
cusing the school officials of mis-
management. During the inquiry
the board employed State Senator
Andrew w. Clarke as counsel.
The Senator, who represents
Falls Church, Alexandria and the
counties of Fairfax and Prince
William in the Virginia General
Assembly. estimated that repairs
to the two temporary buildings
cost about $500. He refused to
disclose his fee for representing
the old board.

The return of Winston Churchill
to power will strengthen British
American relations, but members
of Congress indicated it may not
mean any greater financial help
than this country is already ex-
tending.
The comment in Washington
fell into three categories-politi-
cal, legislative and diplomatic
and ran about like this:
On the political front, Demo-
Gratis were busy denying Repub-
lican claims that the defeat Of the
Labor government in England
foreshadows a favorable trend for
the G. o. P. in 1852.
The diplomatic reaction is that
Anglo American ties will be
strengthened. although this Gov
ernment may not be too quick to
go for Mr.. Churchlll's reported
desire to arrange Big Four meet
ing with Premier Stain.
In Congress the election is bound
to help Great Britain. because
some Republicans have objected
to providing American dollars to
support the social welfare expert
ments of the Labor government.
Although most members of Con-
gress have gone home, the COM
ments of those still here were
rather uniform in suggesting that
Congress would have to weigh
carefully any request for new
financial assistance to strengthen
the British pound.
Senator O'Mahoney, Democrat,
of Wyoming. who supported the
l946 British loan, said any addi-
tional loan proposals would have
to be studied with care in view Of
this country'S own economic prob
lens. He said the heavy expendi-
lures the United States Is making
for defense create the problem of
guarding against imitation that
would destroy this free economy.
Senator Schoeppel. Republican,
of Kansas said IF Churchill is

been denied a release from the

Senator Kerr, Democrat, OF
Oklahoma, said there is great re-

Senator Watkins, Republican
of Utah, said he realized Britain
is scraping the bottom of the bar

suggested the United States is ap-
preaching a similar situation.
House Republican Leader Mar
tin was one of the first to give a
political reaction. He pointed out

New Zealand in throwing off the
yoke of socialism. and added:
The election results in Britain
should be ample warning to the

Insurance Bill Raised
After Prince Georges
Accepts $1,000 Bid

The Prince Georc County
commissioners were k,Gl on the
insurance merry-go-round today
with the disclosure that their
preference for stock company over
mutual type insurance will cost
the county an extra $1,000 in
stead of $4,000.
Already under fire from the
county Citizens Federation for
awarding coverage of county ve-
hicles to a stock company for
$1,000 when a mutual company
had bid $1,000. the commission
ers now have received the first
bill from the company they chose.
Instead of $1,000, as was orig
inally bid by Arthur Keir Of Hy-
attsville, agent for the contract
winning stock company, the bill
asked payment of $500.
Referred to Committee.
The commissioners referred the
bill to their insurance advisory
committee. Mr.. Keir is a mem.
ber of that committee.
In other business at yesterdays
meeting in Upper Marlboro, the
commissioners received a resolu-
ton from their advisory commit
tee on road projects conditionally
approving award of the contract
for construction Of the Branch
ville-Beltsville highway without
competitive bids.
The commissioners at their
previous meeting had asked the
committee to condone awarding
the contract to the General Ex-
cavating Co. of Betsville, which
had made an informal offer to
build the 3.2-mile, 24-foot wide
road for $350,000. That figure
is $50.000 to $150,000 less than
various estimates received on the
project.
Ruling Made on Legality.
The committee hedged its ap-
proval with certain conditions.
One Of these stated that the ap-
proval was Subject to the deci-
sion of the county attorney in
respect to the legality of award
ing the contract on a non-com-
petitive bid"
County Attorney Adrian Fisher
ruled that competitive bidding is
not required in this case since it
is a special road project author
lied by special act of the 1851

u. 5. Press Comment
On Churchill Victory
Notes Slight Margin
BY the Asseeiutsd Press

American newspapers mainly ex-
lpressed satisfaction over Winston
Churchill's victory in the British
elections. But some professed
concern that the Conservatives
slim margin might create instabil-
Iity in the new government.
Editorial comment:
indianapolis Star: "The West
ern Worlds most extensive expert
ment in doctrinaire socialism has
been weighed and found badly
wanting by the long suffering
British people. The most i'm
portant consequence Of the Con-
servative triumph. however, is the
return to leadership of one Of
(Britain's) ablest statesmen.
"Me Too" Campaign Criticized.
Chicago Tribune: His (Mr.
Churchill's) return to power will
be widely welcomed in this coun-
try. It would be a mistake, how
ever. to believe that America and
Americans have much or even
anything to gain -. The me too
campaign in Britain has given
Mr.. Churchill so narrow a ma
jority that the new government
will have difficulty maintaining
itself in power"
New Orleans Times-Picayune:
Neither Mr.. Churchill nor his
admirers in Britain and the
United States have any doubts
about his ability to restore to
Western leadership in the East
West tension a dynamic force
that has seemed to some to have
been lacking ever since Mr..
Attlee succeeded him as Prime
Minister in 1945."
Salt Lake City Tribune: 1.-THE
British public recognized that the
Labor government was a failure.
Churchill is a statesman of
world renoWn. With (hirn) at
the helm relations between Amer
lea and Britain can be restored
to their old-time harmony and
effectiveness"
Precarious Division Seen.
Louisville Courier-Journal: "1t
is poetic justice, perhaps. that Mr.
Churchill will now have to run
government under the same dis
advantages as beset Labor during
the past year. Such a precarious
division does not make for stabili-
ty in government or encourage the
imposition of stern and sacriflcial
policies on the electroate."
Boston Herald: The British
election was a real disappointment
in failing to prove anything con-
clusively. j.. The campaign issues
were more than a matter of en-
phasis than substance. The
vote was for leadership as opposed
to wishywashiness and temporiz-
ing"

Secrets of Chornn

AS many a reader writes me, a
figure can easily become the vic
tim of sedentary work.
But no matter how much of
your day must be spent sitting,
any tendency of the hips to spread
cannot only be controlled, but pre-
vented entirely. If you will just
resolve to be permanently vigilant
about your diet, posture, girdle
and exercise, your job will never
be threat to the beauty of your
figure.
Start right now to eat more of
the slimming foods and much
less of those you know are calorie
loaded. Plan your lunches with
particular care when you expect
to sit all afternoon.
Watch your posture all the while
you are seated. Any trace of a
sprawl in your legline invites a
hip spread. Keep your feet and
legs together; balance your weight
squarely on your Sitting" bones.
When you select your next foun-
dation garment, make certain that
it molds the hip flesh smoothly.
The proper garment will do lot
to prevent further hip expansion.
But you must help it to do it's work
by maintaining firm control over
your muscles.
Walk wherever and whenever
you are able. If your neighbor-
hood boasts pool, swim as often
as you can. Both of these ac-
tivities have reducing and firm
ing effect. Exercise 10 minutes
each day in the privacy of your
