Planning Board Due
To Answer Chapman
On Playground Issue
. By Nelson M. Shepord

Federal planners were to give
an answer today to Interior Sec
rotary Chapman, who wants them
to stop assigning Fairgrounds to
the Recreation Board until the
involved jurisdictional dispute is
decided in the courts.
The matter was one of a num-
Der of District problems on the
monthly agenda of the National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission.
While no advance indication
was; given, NCPPC is expected tc
turn down Mr.. Chaprnan's re-
quest. To comply with it, ever
temporarily, would mean discon-
tinuance of policy in effect "a
years. E
For ~ long time the Interior
Department has sought to take
control over Fairgrounds from the
Recreation Board in it's fight
against racial segregation. The
Government, however, evaded the
ljurisdictional issue in recent
test case to ban segregation at the
Wheatley and Trinity Play
grounds. District Court Judge
David A. Pine ruled there was
nothing illegal in reserving the
two Fairgrounds for white resi-
dents only.
Latest developments in the is
sue were to be presented at the
planning session. "A letter from
the Attorney General declining to
advise the planning commission
in the matter also was up for con-
lsideration.
The planning commissions staff
OF 16 must be reduced by three
employees unless the Senate re-
stores the drastic cut in operation
funds approved by the House. This
cut of II per cent from the budget
figure reduced funds from $108, 200
to 100000 for the next fiscal year.
Several condemnation orders
were to come before the commits
sion. These include a request to
authorize condemnation of Ger
tain properties from Spout Run to
the Fairfax County line. The
commission has been buying up
land along this route for the
George Washington Memorial
Parkway extension.
Study of Building Height.
John Nolen, jr., director, will
outline the case involving the legal
height of buildings, due for a hear
ling before the Zoning Commission
ION April %. That group is await
ling the planners decision on the
Question of permitting an addi-
|tional story. without increasing
the regulated height of buildings
and apartments. Involved is a
Question of increasing the popula-
ton density Of buildings, thereby
adding to traffic congestion in rush
hours.
Report on River Crossings.
The Planning Commission will
hear a preliminary report on a
general study of possible Potomac
River crossings, made by Modjeski
& Masters, Harrisburg (Pa.) en-
|gineers employed by the District.
The firm was given four months
in which to report its findings.

Donohue Denies
District |sLax
In Po|iceCases
Commissioner Says
Action Is Planned
When Facts Warrant

Arnold Bauman, counsel to the
Senate District Crime Committee
is under a Misrepresentation" il
he believes the District Govern
ment will take no action against
police involved in bribe- taking
and other illegal acts, Commits
sioner F. Joseph Donohue said
today.
His statement came after q
half-hour conference with Chair
man Nicely of the Crime Commit
tee. The meeting also was at
tended by Engineer Commissioner
Bernard L. Robinson.
In a speech yesterday, Mr.. Bau-
man criticized police officials for
laxity in acting against those &C
cused of wrong-doing in connec-
ton with rackets here.
If Mr.. Bauman has any idea
that Maj. Murray Police Chief
Robert v. Murray or the Board
of Commissioners is disinclined
to do what the facts warrant"
Mr.. Donohue said, then he is
suffering from a misrepresentation
of fact"
Won't Discuss Subject.
Neither Senator Nicely nor the
Commissioners would say what
specifically was discussed, except
that it concerned District matters
generally. Senator Nicely also is
chairman of the full Senate Dis
trict Committee.
But after the meeting, Senator
Nicely said prompt action should
be taken in those police cases
where evidence indicates illegal
acts.
And I am confident that the
Board of Commissioners will take
action in all of these cases that
have been investigated by our
committee in which we have dem
onstrated the necessity for &C
tion," the Senator said.
Mr.. Donohue said the police
department was mentioned dur
ing the morning meeting, but
would not comment on whether
there was any criticism of Mr..
Bauman's talk to the American
Society of Newspaper Editors.
Action Should Be Prompt.
There is no doubt in my mind,"I
Senator Nicely said, that in cases
of that kind, action should be
prompt. Where evidence # graft
is overwhelming, vigorous action
should be taken"
1t has been indicated, mean
time, that action is pending in
at least two police cases.
Trial-board action against 1t.
Jacob Wolf, who freely admitted
taking part in the auto gray mar
ket, probably will be recommended
within a few days, Murray said.
It also was indicated that the
two-year-old case of 1t. Joseph
w. Shimon, accused of tapping
telephone wires, still is under
consideration"
Reports in Few Days.
Inspector Howard v. Covell said
reports on the 1t. Shimon and
1t. Wolf cases will be ready in a
few days."
The Shimon case is an out
growth of a Senate wire tapping
probe two years ago. The Wolf
case was brought to light during
the Senate crime hearings in
January, when 1t. Wolf, head of
the police auto squad, admitted
buying scarce new cars and selling
them at a profit following World
War II.
Maj. Murray said trial board
action also may be recommended
against others mentioned during
the crime probe. He has named

This Land of Ours
The Vein
By JESSE GREEN

THE VALUABLE ores we use
occur in many ways in the earth.
Most occur in veins which are To-
Called areas either formed by the
action of underground water or
the cracking of the earth.
Usually cracks in the earth are
caused by the rise of the original
or igneous rocks from beneath
or the contraction of the earth,
which allows the crust to break
and drop. In any event we have
vacant spaces along lines known
as faults" and as it is often said,
''It takes fault to make mine"
These vacant spaces are like
vacant houses in town, they are
soon filled. Gases and solutions
are always vending their way
through cracks in the earth. So
lutions are of water, which is the
greatest solvent. 1t picks UP
everything that it touches, espe-
cially if it happens to be heated
and charged with acid carbon
dioxide or with the alkalies.
All the metals, and for that
matter all other materials, were
once in the igneous or molten
state when the earth was made.
Then all things must have been
well mixed, but Nature has per-
formed great task of collecting
some of the useful materials from
this first and very diffused state,
and concentrated them in veins
for our use.
Water with its solvent power
was used for this purpose to col

lect the minerals from the igne-
GUS rocks.
The process is by no means as
simple as these words try to por-
tray, for there are many factors at
work. One, known as replace
ment, is most always effective.
This process may be called horse
trading among the minerals. If a
solution carrying copper comes in
contact with iron it picks up the
iron and leaves copper in its place,
or another solution may dissolve
out lime and leave lead in its
place. A small crack in the earth
may be dissolved out by solution,
and large ore body deposited.
1t is all very wonderfully done.
A good deal of the vein forming
process is well known, but one
factor seems yet very poorly un-
derstood. AS stated, we know that
all the minerals come from the
original igneous rocks, but why
concentrated in certain igneous
rocks and not in others. AS for
example, why were all the min
erals in the Butte Hill, why was
not Butte in the Crates, or Big
Horns, or some other mountain
range.

Says 10000 Will Back
Proposed Bolt 10 AFL
BY the Assoeioted Press


GREENSBORO, N. c., May 49,
One of the leaders of the rebellion
in the CIO Textile Workers Union
claimed solid support of more than
40, 900 members today in a mass
transfer to the AFL.
Lewis Conn. former North Caro-
lima TWUA director and leader of
the revolt in this State, said at
least 42,700 workers have agreed
Ito quit the TWUA in favor of the
IAFL United Textile Workers.
He said his list included $1,000
members in North Carolina, 5000
lin Virginia, 5000 in Pennsylvania
and 7,700 in New Jersey who favor
the AFL.
More meetings are scheduled
this week and Mr.. Conn said he
expected the large majority of
workers to join the movement.
Next Sunday. George Baldanzi,
former vice president of the
TWUA, is scheduled to address 10
cal meetings in Virginia and North
Carolina. After Mr. Baldanzi
failed to unseat President Emil
|Rieve at the national convention
last month the union ranks split,
with the Baldanzi group opposing
Rieve men.
Mr.. Baldanzi's supporters have
suffered several setbacks since the
revolt started last week. At least
three locals meeting in Alabama
yesterday voted to stick with the
CIO. Another local in Virginia
and several locals in North Caro-
lima and in Northern States have
spurned invitations to join the
