Civil Defense Official
Calls Public Session
To Protest Fund Cut

A volunteer civil defense off,
cial yesterday called a meeting
Of citizens for 8 pm. Wednes-
day at the Departmental Audi
torium to protest the slash of
civil defense funds for the Dis
trict.
Max c. Schwartz, deputy di-
rector who heads the Volunteer
Warden Service, declared:
ut is incredible that the House
Appropriations Committee can
be so apparently unaware Of the
need for and the needs of civil
defense at this critical time in
view of the repeated warnings
from military and other experts
that Russia is capable of striking
a crippling blow at all of our
critical target cities simultane-
ously."
The House Committee cut the
budget request for civil defense
from $315 900 to $23,339. This
brought the comment from Civil
Defense Director John E. Fon-
dahl that he might as we'll close
up shop.
Mr.. Schwartz continued:
"As citizens of the Nations
No. l target city, we demand the
protection that is our right by
restoration of the civil defense
budget as originally presented"
He said the meeting primarily
was called for volunteer mem
bers of the Warden Service. But

Drought and Worms
Threaten Crops in
Maryland, Virginia

Drought and army worms con-
tinued to plague farmers of
Maryland and Virginia yester-
day.
In Southern Virginia, tobacco,
Irish potatoes and snap beans
are threatened by a growing
drought which could duplicate
last summers $50-million loss
unless rain falls soon.
In Central Maryland and the
Eastern Shore, the creeping on
slaught of the army worm has
spread from Montgomery County
to neighboring Prince Georges
and Frederick Counties while still
other hordes of the browniSh-
green worms have been reported
around Denton in Caroline Coun-
ty across Chesapeake Bay, and
near Cambridge in Dorchester
County.
Barley Cut Early.
Frederick County Agent Henry
R. Shoemaker yesterday said the
worst area in that county was
Buckeystown A d amst town =
Doubs. Several farmers, he re-
ported, had cut their barley be-
fore it matured in saliva
attempts.
The Eastern Shore invasion
was centered about Tuckahoe
Neck, near Denton, in Caroline
County but was reported spread
ing.
Prince Georges County Agri-
cultural Agent P. E. Clark re-
ported the worms have destroyed
10-acre field of barley and
vetch on William Woodward's
3,000-acre Bel Air farm on Route
so near Collington.
Mr.. Clark said he made an
inspection of the field and found
plenty of damage but could not
find the worms themselves.
Tobacco Hit Hard.
The earliness of this seasons
dry period in Southern Virginia
has hit tobacco especially hard
because the crop has not had a
chance to begin growing prop
erly. Tobacco is the big money
crop of the southside.
Most growers have had to re-
plant at least once, and some
as many as three times. Topping
off the bleak outlook is the fact
that tobacco plants are extrenssy
scarce.
Farm experts say the tobacco
crop can be saved if a good rain
comes in the next few days.
In addition to the sun, winds
have helped to dry out the
ground, making it more difficult
to put out new plants unless they
are frequently watered.
Even more serious damage has
been done the oat and barley
crops. In many instances, they
have been nearly wiped out.
Many have dried up and some
farmers have been feeding their
cattle from barns.
The hay crop has been hard
hit, as have early vegetable
gardens. The winter fheat crop
managed to get off fairly lucky
with only light damage.

Transit Problems,
Police Pay Raises
On Congress Agenda
By Harold B. Rooers

Area transit problems ana pay
raises for police and f1remen will
be considered tomorrow by Con-
gressional committees.
The House Commerce Com
mittee in executive session
plans to study bills to improve
the criticized Washington area
public transportation system.
Several bills, including one
passed by the Senate for a
three-member regulatory transit
commission, are pending before
the group. Committee Chairman
Wolverton, Republican, of New
Jersey has declared the time is
ready for action, not for further
study. y
Compromise Expected.
The controversial House
passed bill for Is per cent pay
raise for police and firemen will
be taken up at 2 pm. tomorrow
by the Beall subcommittee of
the Senate District Committee.
The full District Committee is
scheduled to meet at 8 pm. for
action on decision of the sub
committee headed by Senator
Beall, Republican, of Maryland.
Most reliable indications point
to possibility of a bill giving po-
lice and firemen a compromise
somewhere between the IS per
cent raise in the House bill and
the 8, per cent recommended by
the Bureau of the Budget.
District Committee Chairman
Case, Republican, of South Da-
kota, has said he would support
the IL per cent figure, recon-
mended last week by Senator
Morse, Independent, of Oregon,
as a compromise.
Based on Sliding Scale.
Estimates of annual cost have
ranged from $1.9 million for the
8 per cent proposal; $2.5 million
for 10 per cent; So million for
the II per cent; to $3.7 million
for the IS per cent.
A proposed compromise bill of
IL per cent was said last night
to be based generally on the slid
ing scale carried in the House
with about seven-eights
of the total money going to pri-
Yates in the police and fire de-
partmentS.
The Commissioners recently
notified the Senate District Com
mittee that they have forwarded
to the Budget Bureau a bill rec
ommending an 8 per cent in
crease for teachers and public
school officials here.
Funds for District rent control
workers back pay since March
"a, are carried in a compromise
Third Supplemental Appropria-
tionS bill slated for action Tues
day afternoon in the House.
$4,000 for Rent Aides.
The measure carries roughly
$50, 900 to take care of rent en-
ployes up to June 30. But to
meet expenses of another month
of rent control here, up to July
81, the Commissioners have
asked the Budget Bureau to send
another supplemental request to
Congress for inclusion in the
pending House-pasSed District
supply bill.
This annual $146 million budg-
ct is before a Senate Approprl-
ations subcommittee, but is not
expected to come up for public
hearings until later this month.
Subcommittee Chairman Dirk
sen. Republican, of Illinois will
schedule hearings after return
from overseas.
The Senate plans to act to-
afternoon on Is local
bills approved by the Senate Dis
trict Committee. They include
to revise criminal law
here. require disqualification of
narcotic addicts, permit recon-
of two filling stations,
modernize the charter of the
Gas Light Co. and
make many changes in the Dis
,rict code.

Mrs. Buck works part time as

A year ago, Mr.. Buck. a car

he suddenly collapsed from a
brain hemorrhage. Mrs. Buck
called an ambulance, and until
help came kept her husband
alive by breathing into his
mouth.
Three months in the hospital,
at cost of $1,000, made him
we'll enough for home care. He
still was blind. and half-para-

Now at the Woodrow Wilson

vile Va. his sight has returned.
He can move his paralyzed arm.
Mrs. Buck is hopeful that pray
ers will pull him through-just
as she knows prayers saved his
life.
Bob and Bill carry burdens I'M

An Elusive Old Gentleman

There was time, hundred years or so
ago, when it would have been hard to describe
Santa Claus. It was true enough then, as it is
now, that the old gentleman was something
special. He was as real as plum pudding to
children everywhere. They tried to sit up on

stairs when every one else was asleep, hoping
to catch glimpse of him at work. They knew
him as the epitome Of all that was kind and
good, and the one who would reward them on
Christmas Day for displaying those qualities
themselves But he was an elusive chap.
An idea Of Santa's appearance began to
emerge on Christmas eve in 1922, when DR..
Clement Clarke Moore Of Columbia University
penned a Christmas poem for his children.
He called 1t "a Visit From Saint Nicholas, !"

This and That

This should not be interpreted as any
reflection on his owners.
No doubt they do good job of feed
ing Harry. but Harry has different
idea.
He is perpetually hungry.
His big tongue lops out and he drools
at the very sight of food.
"Drooling at the mouth" is an old
expression, but it means something
with dog.
It is one of the wonders of the
world, really, the way sight or smell
of food excites the salivary glands OF
the canine population.
We can recall old Jinks, American
pit bull, more properly called Amer
ican bull terrier.
He weighed 68 pounds, and had a
neck % inches around. and that's no
exaggeration, but actual measurement.
