Limited Discretion for Judoes

Better administration of justice would result
from passage of the bill to permit suspension of
sentences by judges of the Municipal and Juvenile
Courts. Advocates of the legislation emphasize
that this is not plan to encourage leniency for
major offenders. It is proposal designed to deal
more effectively with f1rst-offense cases in which
the circumstances indicate that justice should be
tempered with mercy.
Until February 16, 1850, it had been the
custom in the two lower courts to suspend iail
sentences or fines in certain minor traffic, drunk
juvenile delinquency or other cases. On that date
the Municipal Court of Appeals ruled in traffic
case that the judges of the lower courts had no
statutory authority to suspend sentences for any
one. The effect of this ruling has been to reduce
sentences and, in some instances, to free defend
ants completely. The Senate District Committee
has been advised that in one Juvenile Court case
plea Of guilty was set aside by the Judge, plea
of not guilty entered for the defendant and ver-
dict Of not guilty handed down because imposi-
tion of mandatory sentence would have created
q severe hardship
It was because of this situation that the
District Bar Association supported the urgent
pleas Of the judges that they be given the discre-
tion which they once exercised in handling hard
ship and frst-offense cases. The request is a
reasonable one. The courts should see to it, how
ever, that the authority will not be abused if
Congress should grant it.

where in the world It's cost of $255 million,
raised by bond issues, was expected to be paid of
in IS years with traffic estimated to reach 18
million vehicles annually by 1866 and toll
revenues estimated to reach $18 million yearly
by the same date. In its first three months Of
operation, however traffic already Is close to the
projected 1866 rate and revenues not far short of
the companion figure.
The result is some quick revision in figuring
by the pike authorities. First, is the anticipation
that the bonded indebtedness can be refinanced
by 1860 at better than the existing 34 per cent
rate. Second, is the estimate that the entire
initial cost can be paid of in Is years rather
than taking IS. Third is the immediate planning
for an expansion to six lanes of an intermediate
stretch between the Camden Philadelphia ex-
change and Woodbridge, New Jersey, giving this
portion the same capacity as the Woodbridge
Lincoln Tunnel mileage.
Washingtonians who have used the pike
already have had firSt-hand showing of the
accommodation it offers and its benefit to
through traffic. highway of this type in a
congested area and between two. major points
of traffic origin has an obvious value to the
Nations internal commerce and great poten-
tial value to its security system. It is most
encouraging to read the performance record
thus far and to contemplate the possibilities of
other key projects Of self-liquidatng character.

This and That

A new use for the kissing technique
To be used by the foster parent in
feeding baby bird out of the nest, so
that it win get the idea of mealtime.
This is the suggestion of Malcolm
Davis, in charge of the bird life at the
National Geological Park. In q letter
to this column. Mr.. Davis tells what to
do in a common situation:
'"The orphaned bird should be fed
little and often. A formula that has
proved successful in the rearing of COM
mon passerine birds Is made as follows:
Equal parts of Pablum, grated hard
boiled egg and raw hamburger.
Mix them together, and to a quantity
about the size of an apple add two drops
Of Zymadrops, an Upjohn product which
is combination. of 10 important vita
Minis.
Roll this mixture into small balls,
and with tweezers place the food far
back into the throat of the bird Water
may be given with an eye dropper.
IF the bird does not open its mouth,
gently part the mandibles with the
fingers and insert the food.
when approaching the bird at feed
ing time, utter kissing sound with the
lips. for after bit the bird will asso-
ciate the noises with meal time.
Clean the nesting place daily and
keep the bird warm. The rate of growth
of the youngster win be little short Of
marvellous, for it viii double its weight

perching birds nest, winds and rains
come. During this weather many fledg-
hngs fall from their nests and perish.
1T is always a wise practice. If by
any chance you come upon such an un-
fortunate, to return it to the nest,
enabling the parents to resume their
care. for they are capable of caring for
it much better than you or I.
But II its nest cannot be found,
place the bird in a small box padded
with tissue.
1.-THE feeding is a time consuming op-
Grafton, for the beak is forever open
begging for food.
This week I discovered the nest Of
chipping sparrow. It was about S
feet from the ground in the top of
dead tree. and was constructed Of
grasses, fine twigs, rootlets, and thickly
lined with hair.
There were three youngsters with
gaping mouths within. With the aid
of binoculars I saw the parents bring
food to the family at 5-minute inter-
vals."
Mr.. Davis five minutes are impossible
for the human foster parent, most often
the woman busy with household affairs.
Every hour will do, during daylight.
Birds go to bed early, and even the
babies need not be fed at night.
Keeping them warm at first is very
important. Also out Of the sun.
Birds are so small that it is neces-
sary to keep q screen over the top Of
the box. SO they cannot fly out and be
stepped on In. the dark.

Job Security for Teachers

lob Security for Teachers
I am heartily in favor of the Ameri-
can Federation of Teachers request to
have professional incompetency and
immoral conduct the only condition for
dismissal from position in the Wash
ington school system.
Your editorial, Job Security for
Teachers" states that disobedience Of
orders of a superior officer, violation Of
school board rules and absence without
leave are good reasons for firing
public servant" for one, would like
to know where else in the public-service
field such conditions Of employment
prevail.
The Army private is under discipline
stricter than any other public servant
know Of However, he does not find
himself faced with immediate discharge
for being AWOL, insubordinate to his
sergeant, or acting contrary to the regu-
lations set up by his CO.
Why cannot these conditions for en-
ployment" be dispensed with? The edi-
torial says it is a.. against the general
public" Is it against the public" to
make the teaching profession more ap-
pealing to its members and prospective
members? Is it against the public" to
have teachers who are embarrassed,
happy and contented?
Many leave for the man in the
service is made less pleasant because
of the thought that he might be late
and perhaps draw a fine or extra duty.
What If 1t cost him his only means of
livelihood?
A teacher may have made some very
special plans for a certain Saturday
afternoon. What if her principal calls
to say another teacher could not make
1t, SO she will chaperone the glee club
picnic that afternoon? Her refusal
would mean her job.
If the school board rules that the
teacher must attend all meetings it calls.
an unavoidable situation could render
her unfit as teacher.
There are three main reasons why
older teachers are leaving, and fewer
young people than one would expect
are entering the profession. They are,
first, but not always that in relative
importance, pay; second, too many
demands upon and too close scrutiny
of the teachers free time; and third,
too much petty harassment and too
strict discipline, as is typified by the
three causes for dismissal which the
AFT seeks to abolish.
Let me hasten to add that am not

not know single teacher on the WASH

to large and part-time classes for him

certainly not against the general pub

ging for food, and few days later will
pick food from the floor"
One might think Mr.. Davis would
get enough Of birds, in his daily work,
but no. he carries it to the hobby point.
"The birds have found the feeding
station erected in my back yard" he
says.
This is gratifying, for we live in the
heart of the city amid the traffic noises.
And yet the cardinals, blue jays, robins.
Starlings and the ever-preSent sparrows
come to sample the mixed grains that
are offered.
This morning a fledgling sparrow
and its parents were upon the ground
under the feeder. The youngSter was
following the parents, its mouth open
and it's small wings quivering in antici-
patton Of food. for its appetite is enor-
nous.
"It was in the hill country of India
that had the opportunity to observe
the parents Of the hill mynah startling
feeding its nest of five birds" Editors

We are glad to see Cleveland Park

The section south and east of the Ana

manent library building. Population in
this area Census tracts 73 through I'D
increased over 231 per cent between
1910 and 1850; but our library services
have not increased in proportion.
Despite the Bookmobile being added

crease in it's circulation. The bookstock
shows a circulation Of 6h during the

bookstock in the system.
