Accident Prevention
For Children Stressed

While not minimizing the
problem Of disease, O doctor last
night stressed that accident pre-
vention is just as important to
the medical profession.
DR.. George M. Wheatley Of
New York, chairman of the COM
mittee on accident prevention Of
the American Academy of Pedia-
tricians, told that group of spe-
cialists in the District Medical
Society that most people do not
realize the magnitude of the
problem Of everyday accidents.
DR.. Wheatley said accidents
are now the leading cause of
death in the lis age group.
And he added that the total of
victims Of the next seven causes
OF death Is just about the same
as the figure for accidents alone.
The doctor said there is q
growing .awareness among doc
tors Of the seriousness Of acci-
dents. He emphasized the need
for research into the where and
why Of accidents.
He said the child who usually
has the accident is an impulsive
little fellow who does not retreat
from danger. The passive, shy
child. avoids injury. be said.
DR.. Wheatley said the leading
cause Of accidents to children in
wolves automobiles, with burns
next.
The meeting was held in the
Hotel 2400 and sponsored by the
Pediatrics Section Of the District

| New Bill Introduced
In Senate 10 Revise
Planning Agency
By Gene Goodwin
Sfar Sfaff cerraspendant

ANNAPOLIS, Mar. 25.-The
dispute over legislation to revise
the Maryland National Capital
Park and Planning Commission
was blown sky high today. with
the introduction of q completely
new bill by the two Montgomery
and Prince Georges County SEN
ators.
That means there are now two
park and planning bills before
the General Assembly-one in
the Senate and one in the House.
The bill the Senator's put in
today would effect certain re-
forms in the 25-year-old plan
ming agency, but would retain
1t as an independent State COM
mission and extend its jurisdic-
ton throughout the two coun-
ties.
Introduction of the measure.
first proposed by the Senators
when the controversy was at q
fever pitch early this month.
apparently signifies they are re-
jecting compromise proposals by
some Of the House members
from their countries.
Amendments Proposed.
Asubc ON m ittee of Prince
Georges and Montgomery dele
gates, in Monday night proposed
several amendments to water
down the bill that had been in
troduced by the joint delegations
early in the session to abolish
the commission and transfer all
OF its functions to Prince Georges
and Montgomery. The Sena-
tors. r. Fletcher, Republican,
or Prince Georges and Anders r.
Lofstrand, jr.. Republican, of
Montgomery - were dead set
against the original House meas
ure.
Briefly, the Fletcher-Lofstrand
measure would make these re-
forms in the commission: The
administrative tax would be cut
from 4 to 3 cents; the admins
trative and park taxes would be
reduced automatically when
ever Surpluses reached q certain
point; the scent Montgomery
recreation tax would be abolished
and the program transferred to
the county: public budget hear
ings would be required and the
commission would have to fur
nish reports Of its technical staff
whenever 1t made coming recon-
mendations to the two counties.
Governor Appointees.
The six commissioners would
continue to be appointed by the
Governor.
Generally, it can be said the
difference between the Fletcher
Lofstrand bill and the House
subcommittee's amendments is
that the Senator'S would strive
to retain-if not strengthen
the planning commission as an
independent, State agency. The
subcommittee amendments still
sought to achieve the main pur.
pose of the original House bill
that Of transferring control Of
the agency to the two counties.

Spires Of the Spirit 0sR
The Fabulous Mile

This is the story of fabulous ave-
nue. in the City Beautiful which be-
longs to each American. Fabulous is
the only adjective adequately to de-
scribe mile stretching in either di-
rection as one stands at a certain spot
on Massachusetts Avenue In the Ma
tion's Capital. For fronting the thor
oughfare bearing the name Of the dar-
ing colony planted on the wild New
England coast are portals opening out
to global fields of human interest. to
political experiments expressing the
ruling passion of nations very old and
very young; to vast, yeaSty masses of
humanity where the ferment of self
determination is sure to prove vital
factor of destiny in the shape of things
to come.
Overlooking this stately avenue are
windows facing immensity. They are
labeled embassies and churches, and
their lines go out from this one street
to all the earth. The embassies are the
agencies in this Capital Of various at
tempts of peoples to organize their
social industrial and cultural life
around some governmental pattern.
The churches are inspiring symbols Of
the faith of men, under all skies, in q
God supreme above all earthly rule
whose moral and spiritual verities are
the very laws Of the universe.

Here, within the compass of double
mile, are to be found Shrines of the
great religions Of the world, breaking
Skyward. Here also are untrammeled
schools Of learning where, even as the
blackneSs of new paganiSm mocks
the light, the torch of truth and faith
is being handed on to generations fol-
lowings, as Science walks with humble
feet to fnd the God that faith hath
found" Perhaps all this may be Seen
in clearer focus as the reader walks a
mile with this guide who, for q quarter
Of century, has been privileged to live
on this fabulous mile" which runs
through the teeming life Of the modern
world.
Driving past the British Embassy to-
ward the Cathedral, the car swings
round a great curve, as the broad ave-
nue. suddenly deviates from its hitherto
straight course. This is one of the
worlds most fascinating detours. A
wooded section facing the Naval Ov-
servatory is good place to alight.
From that vantage point in each direc-
ticn sweeps a fabulous mile.
Many years ago the observatory was
established in this region prophetically
sensing, it seems. its coming distinction.
This famed institution has implications
celestial and terrestrial. 1t is here
that one Of the greatest of telescopes
pulls down the starry curtain of the
heavens closer to this enchanted mile.

The Weaker Sex

DR.. william G. Leaman jr. identified as
Philadelphia heart specialist, is discerning
and fortnight man. DR.. Leaman not only has
recognized one of the basic facts OF life, he has
had the courage to put it into words. DR..
Leaman said that the theory that the female
of the human species is the weaker sex Is a
myth-it is, in fact, rubbish. Furthermore, the
doctor continued, the women are smarter than
the men; they have learned how to live less
exerting life and to make the men show of as
proof that they are "big and strong" OF course,
Dr. Leaman went bit far when he said that
men simply can't resist the temptation to
shovel snow Some do resist it, quite success
fully-at least until their wives become firm
about it.
And speaking about being firm about some
thing, President Eisenhower sort of supported
Dr. LeamanS thesis in his press conference this
week when he confessed that he has been
hearing plenty from Mrs. Ike about the high
cost of living and that he's been working hard
at trying to do something about it.
AS his final pronouncement on the subject,
DR.. Leaman left the males right where he found
them and without much hope that the opposi
tion (female) is going to let them out. "ItS
woman's world the doctor concluded, "if she
wants to admit and claim 1t. But perhaps she
would be unwise to do so." Why should she,
one wonders, when she has 1t so good?
