Treasury officials on the recent re-
port of the Williams subcommittee
of the House Civil Service Com

other Federal agencies.
Treasury Secretary Snyder

Bullet Works Out
OF Heart Muscle
After Two Decades
BY the Associated Press

BALTIMORE. Mar. 14.-Sergt.
Samuel j. Monkhouse was back
on duty at police headquarters
yesterday, proudly showing a
steel l-jacketed bullet that was next
to his heart for more than 20
years.
The sergeant was shot in a gun
fight with a safe cracker October
IA, 1880. The bullet lodged in
muscular tissue of his heart. Doc
tors decided it would be too dan
gerous to try removing it.
Sergt. Monkhouse carried the
bullet there with only an occa-
sional twinge to remind him. But
a couple of months ago he had
some sharp pains in his back and
shoulders.
X-ray examination revealed the
bullet had worked its way into
the right shoulder blade. Sur
geons removed it a few days ago.

Two Arlington Judges

Board Custer Case

Arlington Circuit Court Judges
Walter T. Mccarthy and William
D. Medley have asked for another
Jurlst to preside over custer pro-
ceedings against two members of
the County Board.
The two juriSts disqualified
themselves late yesterday and
asked the Supreme Court of Ap-
peals to designate another to hear
charges leveled by a special grand
jury against Daniel A. Dugan and
F. Freeland Chew, the board
members.
In another development late in
the day, Sam Lano, Virginia. and
Maryland pinball and slot ma
chine distributor who now lives
IN Northeast Washington, ap-
peared at a brief Circuit Court
hearing to post $500 bond on an
indictment charging perjury. he
pleaded not guilty. He was ordered
TO appear to have his trial date
set during the April term of court.
Says He Told of Gifts.
Lano told reporters that he had
not lied to the grand jury which
had accused him of testifying
under oath that he had not given
Mr.. Dugan expensive shirts, ties
and cuff links.
Lano told reporters he had
made such a gift to the board
member and he had so informed
the jury. He said that he had
denied making other gifts to the
official, having in mind television
sets which the grand jury said
Lano purchased from the Service
Tire Corp.
Mr.. Dugan has admitted Know
ing Lano and described him as
"a pretty nice fellow" The board
member also told reporters that
he may have received birthday
gifts from Lano last year, but
that he could not be sure because
he had received about 300 gifts
at that time and could not re-

from.

as with Joseph Leib, member of
a special Police Investigating
Committee who was recommended /
by Mr., Dugan, and Malcolm B.

In diSqualifying themselves
from presiding over the cases of
Mr. Dugan and Mr.. Chew, Judges
Mccarthy and Medley said they
were so situated in respect to
this case as to render it improper
for them to preside at the trial"
This was believed to imply that
the judges stepped aside because

Both Mr.. Dugan and Mr.. Chew
were charged with misfeasance.
malfeasance and gross neglect of
duty. Mr.. Dugan has attributed
the presentment against him to
politics" and said that three of
the five grand jurors were his
political enemies.
However, the law requires that
at least four jurors be in agree
ment before a presentment is
returned and it is understood that
all five were unanimous in re-
turning the presentment against
him.

Brother, Il Works.

AS long as civilization is old, self-pro-
claimed prophets of doom have tried to halt
the memorable strides of progress. the early
courtiers were beset with fears OF a world
that was created flat and over whose steep
edges ships of courageous explorers would
be smashed to smithereens; the horse and
buggy disciple fumed against the expectant
end of dying era; and tyrannical opponents
of organized labor Numbered that maximum
hours of work and minimum rates of pay
would destroy the American industrial sys-
tenn
One would think that time and ex-
perence have exploded these and numerous
other once popuar myths. But the narrow
us with erroneous and damaging fuel.
A case in point is the repeated predic-
ton about interracial public housing. Ever
since its inception, with the passage of the
Federal Housing Act of 1887, myth peddlers
have multiplied their warnings that remov
ing the barriers of residential segregation
doesn't work" Yet, non-discrimination in
public housing projects is policy that has
been tried in Milwaukee, Los Angeles, New
York, Philadelphia Pittsburgh, Chicago,
Seattle, Newark and many other cities the
reports have unanimously attested to its
wisdom

BE LoyaI!" Now They Tell U.s.

All Democrats are not progressive (Whch Is
very much in evidence), and neither are all
Republicans retrogressive,
If we believe Mr.. Wassell is a better
man for the head of our city government,
we should be fair to ourselves and vote for
Mr.. Wassell During his administration, we
voted S359.000 bond issue to give us the
following: four city Fairgrounds swimming
pool, gymnasium, six tennis courts and
combination athletic field. All of these
we're voted to be placed within the city linn
it's nearly two years ago. And also, city
ordinance was passed several years ago
creating positions for eight Negro police of
ficers. Seven were in uniform patrolng the
streets when the mayor took office four
years ago. Now il the eighth police officer
has been added, or If the number that was on
the force when the mayor took office is still
on the force, it is our opinion that the mayor
deserves consideration. If the promises
of the administration have been carried out
as promised we are gaining ground, and
Mayor Wassell is our man, party or no
party But since this bond issue we voted is
our baby as much as it is Mr. Wassell's, and
nothing has been done toward fulfilling the
provisions of the bond issue, then the voters
confidence has been betrayed And it be-
comes our duty as voters to vote our con-
vctions.
We do not know Mr.. Wassell's opponent
who is running on the Republican ticket,
and it might be to the advantage of this
campaign that we do not But we do know he
has not betrayed our confidence.
