Donohue Plans Talks
With County Officials
On Area Unification

District Commissioner r. Joseph
Donohue is planning to confer
with authorities of nearby Mary
land and Virginia communities
because I'VE must abandon the
old idea Of the city Of L,Enfant, -
he told the Inter Federation Coun-
Gil last night.
The group is made up Of rep
resentatives from the District,
Arlington. Fairfax, Montgomery
and Prince Georges civic fedora
tons.
One Community.
Washington and the adjoining
areas are one community, Mr..
Donohue said. He added that he
has just begun to learn the Dis
trict government but that is one
OF the things he has learned.
MFR. Donohue said the Commis-
sioners yesterday demonstrated
their belief in God and lack Of
fear Of science by authorizing an
enlargement Of the capacity of
the National Armory during the
Billy Graham revival. He said
they had 'left 1t to the Lord, and
we hope we haven't made q mis-
take"
Officers Renamed.
Congress feels that, on the sub
ject Of suffrage, the District be-
longs to the Nation, the Commis-
sioner told the citizens, but in
"the District belongs to
the District" He said elected
officials would carry more weight
with Congress than persons like
himself who are picked by the
President.
The inter- federation reelected
all Of its officers. They are: c.
Stephen Duvall Of Montgomery,
chairman; Daniel M. Greene Of
Prince Georges, Or. Lawrence s.
Knappen Of Arlington, Harold A.
Ward Of Fairfax and Mrs. Frank
lin q. Sartwell Of the District,
vice chairmen, and John r. Kirby
Of Prince Georges. secretary.
The meeting was held in the

Bill Would Ease
Virginia Shift 10
Daylight Saving
Seeks to Allow
Uniformity in
Changing Time
By Alex Z. Preston
SAn, S,ofg ceryasnand.n1

RICHMOND, Jan. 22.-Wash.
ington suburbs In Virginia would
be able to change to daylight saw
ing time more nearly In step
with the District under terms Of
q bill to be introduced In. the
General Assembly today.
Somewhat lengthy procedure Of
ordinances and obtain
ing the approval Of the Governor
would be eliminated by the meas
ure by Delegates Edwin Lynch Of
Fairfax and ]. Maynard Magruder
Of Arlington. This has some
times caused delays in the sub
urbS in changing clocks simul-
taneously with the District.
Eastern standard time is the
official time in Virginia. A few
sessions back. however. legislators
from the Arlington Alexandria
Falls Church-Fafrfax area OBJ
tanned an exception to permit
their respective local governing
bodies, after getting permission
from the Governor, to pass ordi-
nances proclaiming daylight saw
ing time.
/, Tuck Made Concession.
The law was enacted during
the administration Of Gov. VIII
liam M. Tuck, a vigorous oppo-
nent Si anything but God time"
who, nevertheless, made the con-
csssion Of approving the bill for
Northern Virginia's areas, where
all activities are closely tied IN
with those Of Washington.
The Fairfax Board Of Super
visors asked the delegation to
eliminate the requirement for
ordinances, which entail legal
publication, and suggested that
daylight saving time be adopted
by mere resolution.
Mr.. Magruder. expressing full
sympathy with the bill, suggested
that the procedure be simplified
further by eliminating the re-
|quirement for the Governors ap-
proval. He saw Gov. Battle yes
|terday and said the Governor Is
in accord with the idea Of being
relieved of the formality Of giving
his approval to each locality every
year.
The measure was redrafted 50
that henceforth a mere resolution
could authorize the changeover.
Bill For Second Judge.
Also set for introduction today
were identical bills by State Sena-
tor John A. K. Donovan and Dele
lgate Armistead Boothe to give
IAlexandria q second Corporation
Court Judge. A similar law was
passed in 1850 but required the
tState Supreme Court first to cer-
fifty the need for q second Judge.
This was never done.
The new bills would create the
additional post without requiring
higher court certification.
Mr.. Donovan also proposes two
other bills for introduction today,
both relating to adoption proce-
dures. One would seal the court
Index on adoption cases, just ~
papers on the cases are sealed.
His second bill. would simplify
adoption procedure under certain
conditions.

reported.
FBI Gives Account.
The Federal agents found the
suspects with the aid of a sus-
picious garage-keeper and Prince
Georges county police. The FBI
gave this account:
On April 81. the brand-new con-
vertible Of George P. Stevens of
3454 Martha Gusts drive, Alex
andria, was stolen in that city.
Three weeks later. Chester c.
Merritt of $500 Rock Creek Church
road NE, discovered his CONVEX
tible was gone.
The boys next step, according
to the FBI. was to consult the
Library Of Congress. There, they
learned that Vermont is one of the
few States that requires no evi-
dence Of prior registrations of
automobiles for applicants seeking
Vermont registration. Using false
names and phony Washington
post ofhce boxes as addresses, the
youths sent for and received Yer
mont registrations and tags.
Collins drove Mr.. Merritt's con-
vertible to Newark, N. j., where
he had it repainted. then on to
Brooklyn. the FBI said.
Another Idea Tried.
Galligan and Kleinstuher had
what they thought was a better
idea, however. They smeared MI.
Stevens convertible with an off,
color paint aid took it to garage
IN Kenilworth. according to the
FBI. There, they smoothly told
the garage man that the paint
'mears were the handiwork Of
'ome college coeds retaliating for
