Broyhi|| and Campbell
Basing Their Pleas on
National Party Issues

Edmund D. Campbell, Demo-
cratic candidate, and Joel T. Broy-
hill, Republican nominee, will base
much of their campaign in the
10th Congressional District race
in nearby Virginia on their par
ties national tickets.
That was indicated last night
when the two candidates, debat-
ing before Rock Spring Civic AS
sociation in Arlington discussed
the Democratic Administration for
the past 20 years and other presi-
dental campaign issues.
Broyhill Hits Democrats.
Mr.. Broyhill charged the Demo-
cratic administration with cor
ruption and an alien philosophy of
government. He stated that Mr..
Campbell had indorsed the "Tru-
man, Stevenson, CIO Americans
for Democratic Action ticket"
Mr.. Campbell countered by &C
cusing Mr.. Broyhill of being a
Democrat himself as recently as
1948.
The Truman administration
brought us imitation while Gov.
Stevenson fell heir to a $240 mil
lion surplus in Illinois when he
was elected and now $50 million
remains" Mr.. Broyhill said. Does
1t look like a switch to Stevenson
will be changer"
Statement Challenged.
What aspects of the allen
philosophy of government, which
Mr.. Broyhill accuses the Democra-
tic administration of having, does
he wish to abolish?" Mr.. Campbell
asked. Does my opponent wish
to abolish the FILA and Veterans
Administration loan guarantee
program which have enabled his
company to reap profits from
housing construction?
"Mr. Broyhill was a Democrat
as late as 1948 when petitions were
circulated to nominate him for the
Arlington County Board" Mr..
Campbell continued. He decided
not to run but I suggest that Mr..
Broyhill's change to a Republican
has only been since he became
rich. Often wealthy people do not
feel happy in the Democratic
Party for the Democratic Party
is the party of the people"
Answering a question from the
floor as to whether he supported
Senator Mccarthy, Mr.. Broyhill
said that the end often justifies
the means and that although
sometimes Government employees
are embarrassed unnecessarily,
much valuable service to the
country has been rendered by
throwing light on Communists in
Government.
Mr.. Campbell said he felt that
"McCarthyism is almost as dan
gerous to our way of life as COM
munism itself and I oppose. all
such character assassination"

1888 "was, and is, to safeguard

public Office by its incumbent"
Those Joining in Appeal.
The appeal was taken to the
high court by Mr.. Dean, County
Treasurer Colin P. MACPHERSON,
Mr.. Cox. Mrs. Ruby Simpson, clerk
to the board, and the board itself.
The high court directed them to
pay $50 damages to respondents,
plus costs in the Circuit and
Supreme Courts. The respondents
in the case on appeal were the
plaintiffs in the Circuit Court
action.
The suit seeking to oust Mr..
Dean was filed by John Locke
Green, former county treasurer,
on February 6. Mr.. Green brought
the action in behalf of six citizens:
Rocco Paolicelli. Howard w.
Sharpe, Harvey A. Williams, Eli
Luria. Raymond A. Miller and
James E. Millar.
Cited Law in 1888.
Mr.. Green cited a State law.
first passed in 1888 banning Fed
eral employees from holding State
or local Office. An exception passed
in 1928 for Arlington County, he
contended, Is unconstitutional.
The exception, as amended, ap-
plies to counties having a popu-
lation in excess of 800 inhabitants
per square mile, or any city or
county adjoining any county hav-
ing a population in excess Of 1000
per square mile. This language.
the attorney asserted, constitutes
special legislation, prohibited by
the Constitution.
Dean Disappointed.
Mr.. Dean, recuperating at his
home from a chest operation,
made this statement:
II am naturally disappointed by
the decision. am particularly dis
lturbed by the fact that more than
my personal continuation in Office
is involved. The most unfortunate
consequences of the decision are:
Il. It enables a group of local
irreconcilables in the real estate
and building industries to drive
from the Board members elected
by the people of Arlington in fair
elections.
SO. 1t deprives the voters of the
right to elect other Federal en-
ployes to the County Board.
II hope that the Circuit Court
judge vino must fill vacancies re-
Sulting from the decision will try
to preserve the will of the people
by appointing persons whose views
are known to be similar to those
of the disqualified members.
Il shall always try to serve my
county in any manner the laws OF
Virginia will allow"
Cox's Statement.
Mr.. Cox, who had conceded that
a decision against Mr.. Dean woulc
also affect him, said:
II am Of course disappointed
that will not be able to finish the
term for which the people O.
Arlington elected me.
1T has been a privilege to serv'
them and have done my best II

DETROIT. Sept. 10.-The BIZ
Iennial convention Of the National
Federation of Federal Employees
has gone on record as criticizing
the abuse by some Government
workers of their annual and sick
leave privileges.
Declaring that such abuses have
led to curtailment by Congress OF
leave benefits, the convention
Unanimously approved a resolu-
ton last night calling on Federal
workers to use leave for the pur-
poses intended by Congress.
The convention voted in favor OF
restoration Of 26 days annual leave
benefits for all Federal workers, as
well as for the repeal of the
Thomas leave rider. which bars
further accumulation of annual
leave.
However, in asking for the res
toration of leave benefits, the
delegates adopted a resolution
blaming employe abuses of leave
privileges for contributing to Con-
gress action in cutting back bene-
fits.
Considerable Abuse Seen.
L. j. Wall, chairman Of the
NFFE leave committee, declared
his group is convinced that there
has been considerable abuses o1
leave privilege"
| Another resolution adopted by
the convention asked that. fol
leave-accumulation purposes, thu
Federal leave year end on the las
day of the year instead of the las
day of the final pay period OF tht
lyear.
Since most Federal workers arr
prohibited from carrying NOR
than 60 days of annual leave from
one year to the next, the f1na
pay period system means that. il
some years, the leave deadline will
be as early as December II, th'
resolution pointed out. For mos
employees this year, the deadlin'
will be December 20.
The resolution declared that
since many employees want to us
their excess leave for the Christ
mas and New Year holidays, tn
leave year should be extended t.
December 81 of each calenda
year.
Leave Compensation Asked.
:, Another resolution approved b.
the convention asked that, in case
where employees have accumulate'

because their agency's workloa'
won't permit sparing them fron

experience. If Russia can get
something easy-economic or 9TH

that goes by decreases the danger
of aggression because the West

Tito gave these opinions:
Spain-He opposed giving Spain
Ian alliance with the West on full
basis of equality because of Spain's
close relations with the Axis pow

Calls Aid Insufficient.
Korea-Tito explained Yugo-

troops to aid the United Nations
forces in Korea by saying such a
token group would not have
helped the situation materially,
and might have had damaging
consequences here.
Western Aid-He was grateful
for Western aid but Yugoslavia
has not received a necessary
amount nor the type needed.

six old school buildings to finance

either unoccupied or used as ad-
ministrative Offices for the school

Public Won't Object
To 159b Gas Rate Rise,
Official Tells PUG

A Washington Gas. Light Co.
official told the Public Utilities
Commission yesterday he feels the
gas consumer would not object to
IA IS per cent raise in rates, since
no increase has been made since
1912.
This comment came from Rob-
|ert c. Owens, vice president
treasurer of the company, as he
was cross-examined during the
PUC's hearing on the plea of the
gas company for Is per cent
rate increase. The company seeks
the increase so it can earn a Z
per cent return on its investment
The hearing will be resumed at
|10 am. Monday, with further
cross-examination of company
witnesses.
Under questioning by Lloyd
Harrison, PUG counsel, Mr.. Owens
said the gas company is seeking
to Improve its financial position
as well as preserve It's integrity u
He pointed out that. If the in
crease is granted, the company
will not earn the full amount this
year, since the increase would be
effective for only part of the year
He said the requested increase
would not make the company rich
Just furnish a modest fair rate OF
return.
The requested increase in gas
rates would produce an additional
$2.3 million a year for the COM
|pany. Under present rates. the
company estimated it would earn
only 80 per, cent on its invest
|ment. The PUG granted a rate in
crease to the company in 1949, but
the courts overturned it. The COM
Ipany then had to refund some
I$1.2 million to its customers.

Transit Radio Backers
Charge Court Invaded
legislative Field

Backers of radio broadcasts on
Capital Transit Co. buses and
streetcars contended today the
United States Court of Appeals
invaded a legislative field and pri-
vate rights in ruling such broad
casts violate constitutional rights
of riders.
In a brief filed with the Su-
preme Court in advance of oral
arguments March 3. the Capital
Transit Co., Washington Transit
Radio, Inc, and the District Pub
lie Utilities Commission declared
the broadcasts improve service
and safety.
The case originated in suit
brought by Franklin S. Pollak and
Guy Martin, who asked District
Court to reverse a PUG finding
in favor of the transit broadcastS.
Decision Overruled.
That court dismissed the suit.
It was overruled last June by
the appeals court. which held
commercial broadcasts on the
transit vehicles deprive objecting
passengers of liberty without due
process of law"
The detailed brief described the
installations as lawful acts of a
private person and nothing more. -
It denied the public has a Com
stitutional right" to use the serv-
ices of a common carrier such as
Capital Transit.
Essentially Legislative. s
"Thes determination of reason
able service to the public is a
function delegated by Congress to
the Public Utilities Commission
and not to the courts" the brief
stated.
"The exercise of this function,
which involves reconciliation of
conflicting interests of individuals,
is essentially a legislative act.
'The Court of Appeals, ignoring
this principle, intruded upon the
legislative function of the COM
mission by erecting, without prece-
dent or authority, a supposed
constitutional bar to the commits
sion's exercise of that function.
Not Properly Considered.
"And it did so on the basis Of
supposed private rights that could
not properly be considered in the
case before it.
"Such an unwarranted intru-
sion on the legislative functions OF
a regulatory commission by a
court runs squarely in the face
of the many decisions of the Su-
preme Court condemning such in
trusions," the brief concluded.
The brief claimed only minor
ity of passengers object to the
broadcasts, provided through
WWDC-FM.
In any event. 1t added, If a
change is desired, the proper
recourse" by objectors would be
to ask Congress to change the law.
