Subsequent to proposals made
by members of the Montgomery
County Housing Authority relative
to alleviating the existing sub
standard housing problem, the class
in Sociology at Carver Junior Col
lege which sponsored a forum last
Wednesday night is modifying a
corp of volunteers from the stu
dent body and interested citizens
to conduct an independent survey
of the housing situation in the
Rockville area.
In addition to their compliance
with the request of the Housing
Authority and the Planning En-
ginner of Rockville to make a sur
vey of existing land available for
building in Lincoln Park and
Haiti, the class will ascertain the
extent of the demand for improved
housing facilities and the avail
ability of capital for construction
of homes on an individual enter
prise basis as recommended by the
Housing Authority.
Although the Sociology class
which sponsored the discussion at
the Colleges Weekly Cultural
Hour and the enthusiastic audi
ence were highly impressed by the
sincerity of the members of the
Housing Authority in finding a SOL
ution to the problem, they debated
with the group as to the feasibility
of their suggestions relating to the
impracticality of public housing on
the ground that the slum areas
needing clearance most are so wide
ly scattered that the units which
might be provided would be too
small to effect economy in adj
ministration and supervision; the
income of the majority of the pop
ulation in greatest need is in excess
of the minimum qualifications for
public housing: leaving the solu-
ton for improving the existing sit
uation to individual initiative.
During the course of the discus
sion from the floor, it was pointed
out that: ~ one public2housing
unit could be centrally located so
as to offer facilities to Stun dwell
ers anywhere in the county with
present facilities for transportation
and at the same time provide a
unit large enough for adequate ad-
ministration and supervision with
out exhorbitant cost, (2) middle
income public housing units have
been provided in many communities
where they were needed, f3y the
Authority's proposed approach
would never penetrate the vicious
cycle which results from the avoid
ance of the Stun clearance issue
until existing housing facilities are
available, and making no provi-
sions for improved facilities until
individuals find colution to their
own problems, az those people in
greatest need cannot obtain from
financial institutions the necessary
initial outlay of capital to finance
desired improven ents.
In yielding to popular demand
the class in Sociology is planning
another public discussion OF sew

Going;s On
At RIMS

When we look back over the
football season, we find that two
smaller RMHS players were in
strumental in leading the team to
it's victorious season.
Dick Disney and Fred Miller
were given honorable mention on
the All-Suburban football squad.
This team include players from
Montgomery and Prince Georges
Counties, Maryland, and from Ar
lington, Fairfar, and Alexandria
Counties in Virginia.
Disney was an outstanding line
hacker this year, as his play was
the highlight of the Rocket defense.
He was also the defensive quarter
back, calling the signals for the
RMHS defensive alignment. "Diz"
was further honored by being
elected co-captain along with Bill
Radcliffe, although it is not GER
tain that he will be able to play
next year.
Fred Miller was a right-half-
back on offense and a safety man
on defense. Freddie was hard
driving runner and terrific block
err. On defense he was a top safety
man, as his tackles shook up many
a bigger man.
Though Fred and Dick both are
light, they lack nothing in ability
and spirit.
Permission has been granted to
the school to use the floor of the
new gym. Although the gym has
not yet been accepted by the Board
of Education, the floor has been APP
proved for use.
The first two basketball games
in the new gym will be held on
Tuesday, December 23. The Junior
Varsity will lead off with the w
& L Sophs at TOO pm. The Var
sity will clash with the Alumni
following the J.V. game. The
RMHS Gymkana Troupe will furn-
ish half-time entertainment for all
home games.
A sock dance will be given after
the game. ...,
The band uniform drive came to
an end on December 5, netting APP
provimately 5000 for the band.
The money was obtained through
student donations and proceeds
from two bake sales.
A community wide drive will be
sponsored the first of the year. by

the. purpose of raising additional
funds.

A casual, caramel-colored man

to be tough on Cab. Actually. in

We will pay for it, in part, in what
ever price increases occur. Wen pay
for the rest in taxes, to make up for
the taxes the government doesn't col
lcct from the steel companies. If that
doesn't take care of it all, we'll pay
for it in higher prices and diluted
money, to the extent that the govern
ment doesn't collect taxes and is
forced to borrow. e., create
money to pay its bills.
BIT even though the public ulti-
mately pays the bill, the savers and
investors can be bent and broken as
they absorb these initial shocks. It's
not only the danger of galloping in
flation-that's with us already. 1t is
the elimination of your income from
savings that is at stake in this new
stab at profits. Not decrease, not a
dilution, but an elimination! And the
elimination is not just from your saw
ings. but of you as a free person.
The unions, public" members of
the Wage Board, United States
Senator, and even the President of
the United States are loud in pro-
claiming that the WSB recommends
tions are just "catch-up" for the
steel workers-not a bit unstabiliz-
ing, and easily payable out of steel
company profits. Every previous
wage-pricc increase has started an
other round of initiation.
Mr. Murray claims he has to have
this unwarranted increase because he
fell behind other union officials and
now wants to regain prestige for him
self by catching up" with other labor
bosses. What a miserable excuse for
another inflationary wage round!
The hollowness of the claim is fur
Their wildly illustrated by Mr.. Philip
Murray's action two days after the
recommendations for his 100000 steel
workers were made. The proposals, he
announced, would now be automatical-
ly applicable to the 100000 employees
in the little and big steel fabricating
shops across the country-iust as
though the "catch-up' theory, the
"ability-to-pay' or the application of
Wage and price sterilization to these
companies had not even been consid-
cred by the Board in making its
recommendations If the increase
should be applied, as Mr.. Murray de
mands, to this now and heretofore I'M
considered group, will price increase
