Z =
Arlington Circuit Court Judge
Walter +. Mccarthy has taken
under advisement a case challeng-
ing the right Of a Federal employe
to serve on the County Board.
Attorney John Locke Green, for
mer county treasurer. filed the
suit in behalf Of six citizens against
Board Member, Alan L. Dean. The
board chairman, Robert w. Cox,
also is a Federal employe.
Judge Mccarthy yesterday heard
nearly four hours Of argument be-
tween Mr.. Green and attorneys for
the County Board, Edmund d.
Campbell and Lawrence w. Doug
las. Commemorative Attorney
William j. Hassan was permitted
to intervene as defendant in the
suit in behalf of the County Board.
Green Contests Law.
Mr.. Green challenged the con-
stitutionality, of the State law,
which gives Federal employees the
right to serve on local governing
bodies. The law applies to any
county having a population in ex-
cess Of 800 inhabitants per square
mile, or any city or county ad-
joining any county having a pop
ulation in excess Of 1000 inhab-
itants per square mile.
Such a provision, Mr.. Green
contended, lis special legislation.
forbidden BY the constitution.
One Of the defendants argu-
ments was to cite Section 80 Of
the constitution. providing that
Every person qualified to vote
shall be eligible to any Office Of
the state. III of any county, city,
town or other subdivision Of the
State, wherein he resides, ex-
cept as otherwise provided in this
constitution. B
Dispute Over Proviso.
The opposing parties disagreed.
Of course, on whether it was
otherwise provided" that Federal
employees cannot hold office.
Mr.. Green, who has frequently
done battle with the County
Board and School Board. recently
won a State Supreme Court ril-
ing that . county Office Of real
estate assessment had been ille-
gally created by special legiSla-
ton.
deciding factor in the case.
Mr.. Green traced the history Of
the constitutional provisions re-
garding Federal employees back to
q General Assembly act Of 1888,
prohibiting them from holding
local Office. He cited the Consti-
tutional Conventions Of 1929 and
what he called the "carpetbagger
convention Of 1867" in support
of his case.
Special legislation Denied.
'No man can serve two mas
ters." he declared.
Mr.. Campbell contended that
the law under attack is not spe-
cial legislation. He said density
of population is a factor in de-
termining the probability that q
county has many Federal employees.
Mr.. Douglas conceded that, from
Virginia's earliest days. the State
has had q policy that no Federal
should hold local Office.
He contended. however. that sec
ton 80 Of the constitution. giving
all persons qualified to vote the
right to hold Office. should be the
deciding factor IN the case.
Judge Mccarthy said. at. the
close Of. the hearing. he had
"a tentative conclusion
that maybe this argument was
good" He added. however, that
some of the defendants conten-
tions sounded like arguments made
in the assessment case, on which
he was overruled by the Supreme
Court.

Enjoy JescIksonviIIe's Beaches

ANSWER: The term "Bimoh"
has been used to generally denote
the place from which the Holy
Scroll is read in the synagogue.
Since, in many instances the Can
tor also chants from this very
same place, it has also become
known as the altar from which
the Cantor chants. The term itself
indicates the connotation of a
high" place. There is possibly a
relationship to the ancient "high
places" from which the people
would offer sacrifices in Israel,
especially before the Temple was
built. The conception is a mat
ter of understanding that the
Torah or the prayers were to be
kept on a higher plane and were
to be used as an avenue of rails
ing the spiritual perspective of the
individual.

means platform" It. comes
from a Hebrew root meaning ito

development of this custom is the
simple fact that he who leads the
service or speaks for his people
or to his people is obligated to
stand out of courtesy either tor
CD or to his public. 1t thus is
recorded as a tradition that the
one who speaks to or for the pub
