ID. {. Man Gets Post
In New Citizen Setup
To Fight U. 5. Crime

Edward j. Flynn, managing di-
rector of the Washington Grim
.inal Justice Association, yesterday
was named treasurer Of the new
Nationwide organization of citi-
zens to fight crime.
The new organization-the Ma
tional Association of Citizens
Crime Commission was formed
by officials of IL anti-crime
groups at a two-day session in
New York.
Virgil Peterson, nationally
known operating director of the
Chicago Crime Commission, was
chosen president of the new anti
crime setup.
Mr.. Flynn acknowledged that
the Washington group differs
from those in Chicago and New
York because it has no investi-
eating program, but he said there
was enough mutual basis to form
a national group to cope with the
underworld on a countrywide
basis.
He said the National organiza-
ton plans to exchange informa-
tion about criminals, keep the
public informed and try to arouse
or sustain interest in crime prob
lens.
He added that through this in
formation exchange it might be
possible for the group Iiefe to
build up a local file on criminals,
although it is not presently
equipped to do an investigative
job of its own.
The association has been asked
by Police Chief Robert v. Murray
to conduct a survey of police
operations here. Mr.. Flynn said he
had been conferring with other
police departments and with those
who have previously made police
surveys to lay the groundwork for
the one here.

instance were at least double what
they were four years ago. Yet the
ratio between actual voters and
potential voters might have been
considerably larger.
The following figures are still
tentative but they indicate trends
as well as opportunities for i'm
provement in the future:
Montgomery County listed IT,
1877 voters for President, as COM
pared with 38,407 in 1948. It's
vote last Tuesday was SO per cent
of registration.
Prince Georges County voters
totaled 67.602, as compared with
30.164 four years ago.
Arlington County had 36,191
voters, almost twice as many as in
1948.
Fairfax County's voter total was
1922, as compared with about
5000 in 1948. That total included
Falls Church at that time. Falls
Church, as a city, recorded 2.316
voters last Tuesday.
The presidential vote in Alex
andria was slightly over $4,000. In
1948, only 1890 cast ballots for
President.

Special Sight Glasses
For Negro Children
Resume Tomorrow
By jones G. Deone

Special instruction for children
with slight handicaps will be re-
stored tomorrow in the Districts
Negro junior and senior high
schools.
A shortage Of teaching funds
caused temporary abandonment of
the classes when schools reopened.
Special classes for Negro Sec
ondary pupils with impaired hear
ing also were dropped. Money now
has been found, but a teacher
hasn't been recruited for the hard
of-hearing pupils.
Restoration of the two groups
has had top priority in a list of
critical teacher vacancies in the
Negro schools.
Seek Extra Teachers.
Associate Supt. Francis A. Greg
ory last month asked for 10 addi-
tional junior high teachers, be-
sides the one for the sight group
and one for hearing. Five new
teachers for Garfield and Turner
Elementary Schools also have top
priority.
Supt. Hobart M. Corning will
be handed a new report on the
Negro teacher situation tomor-
row. He is expected to make an
overall teacher report to the
Board of Education's personnel
committee later in the week.
A few needed Negro teacher
posts may be filled by some teach
er shutting and a possible further
cut in the white teacher force.
But officials plan to seek a spe-
cial appropriation from Congress
for most Of those needed.
Twenty in Class.
The new classes for sight
handicapped children will meet at
Shaw Junior High School. Mrs.
Mary T. Smith, the instructor,
said 20 children will be enrolled,
six of them senior high school
students. The pupils attend regu-
lar classes for some work, but
have special sessions for close
reading.
The youngsters have been
slowed seriously, but Mrs. Smith
believes they will be able to make
up for lost time. -
Meanwhile, Associate Supt. John
M. Riecks hopes an addition to
the crowded Payne Elementary
School will be ready ahead Of
schedule. The addition may be
finished In time to use after the
Christmas holidays, he said.

Maryland and Virginia, each
getting 81 per cent of their regis
tered voters to the polls last Tues
day, surpassed showings of previ-
Gus elections so much that the
performance overshadowed several
shortcomings.
Voting totals indicated yester-
day that the gap between the
number of men and women of
voting age and the number who
actually cast ballots was much
wider.
That did not detract from the
remarkable voter response in
many communities and precincts,
particularly in nearby counties.
But 1t left the way open for still
greater citizen participation in
registration and voting in 1854
and 1856.
Below National Averages.
Some of the Virginia and Mary
land percentages. record-breaking
as they were., stayed below ma
tional averages. incomplete tabu-
lations disclosed.
Close to so million of the ap-
proximately 75.5 million registered
voters voted for President. That
was a turnout of about 70 per
cent Of those registered. It was
q turnout Of almost 81 per cent
Of the approximately 98.4 million
people of voting age, even allow
ing for many thousands unable
Ito exercise the franchise because
|of incapacity or legal barriers.
Either percentage-79 or 61-
was q huge jump from the SIS
per cent of potential voters who
went to the polls in 1948. But
lin 1910, when 49.8 million people
|set q numerical record, the ratio
was 50 per cent OF the registered
vote and practically 81 per cent
of the potential vote.
Numerically and by percent
ages, Virginia and Maryland did
Ia remarkable job in getting out
the vote. About 100000 Mary
land citizens. out of the approxi-
lmately IL million who registered
before the October deadline,
voted November 4. That was 80
Iper cent. better than the. national
average for actual as compared
with registered voters. However,
lit was only about SIS per cent
of the total number of Maryland
citizens of voting age.
In 1948, the total Maryland vote
for President was 596,735. That
was so per cent of the registered
vote and 40 per cent of the poten-
tial vote
In Virginia, in 194S, the vote for
President added up to 419,256.
That was about "a per cent Of the
Registered vote but only 81 per
cent OF the potential vote.
In the presidential election last
Tuesday Virginia had q total Of
more than GIT 900 voters. They
represented 90 per cent Of the reg
listered vote of approximately $780,
0c0. and more than IS per cent Of
the potential. The 35 per cent
figure. while d major advance over
1948. in Virginia, was still far un-
der the national average and vir-
|ginia's potentiality.
