County Heads Defer
Kindergarten Action
After School Par|ey

The Prince Georges Commits
sioners yesterday authorized ap-
pointment of a committee to
study proposal for school ses-
sions throughout the year and
postponed decision as to whether
they will implement a new law
providing for kindergartens in
the county.
Both questions were debated
at a conference of the board
and school authorities at Upper
Marlboro.
The kindergarten statute was
described as mandatory but Com
missioner Edward j. Waters and
James H. Harrison, member of
the county Board of Education,
questioned it's legality.
'It's a stupid BILL" said Mr..
Harrison.
While the Commissioners de-
cided to await data on kinder
garten costs, there were strong
indications that nothing will be
done unless advocates are able
to force compliance through a
plea to the courts.
Lets take no action" Mr..
Waters counseled, we're in a
checker game and it's their next
move"
The consensus at the meeting
was that a kindergarten system
should not be contemplated un-
til adequate facilities have been
provided for children of school
age.
Commissioner w. Everett Mar
ton suggested a probe of the
feasibility of longer school terms,
or hours. in what he described
as an effort to lessen the acute
need for more classroom space.

shadoWed by calamity, for the
enemy was at the gates of Jeru-

the North and South sections
of the city-Saw more than a
potter working with clay-he
saw with marvellous and rare
insight. his nation, though
marred by disobedience, still, in
the hands of a Sovereign God,
just as clay was in the hand
of the potter. Jehovah would
use the troublesome times to
mould and fashion Israel into
stronger and nobler nation.
