Veteran Lorton Aide
Appointed Head Of
D. {. Reformatory

Henry M. Lindsay, a veteran
employe of the District Re
formatory at Lorton, Va, today
was named superintendent of
the penal institution by the
Commissioners.
Mr.. Lindsay has been acting
superintendent since March /,
when E. j. WEIGH resigned be-
cause of i'll health. Mr.. Welch
had served SO years in the Dis
trict's penal service and was
superintendent for 13 years.

Since the treatments began
Charles has received all food
and liquids through tubes fed by
pressure. The machine has
taken over the job of his kidneys
almost wholly.
In one operation, the artificial
kidney eliminated the poisons
which accumulated in three
weeks and restored the normal
composition of his blood stream.
Expensive Treatment.
The cost of one operation is
around $3.50. At least four doc
tors. a medical student, a spe-
cial nurse and laboratory tech
nician are required, in addition
to advance preparation and
consultation.
The patients blood is drained
through an arm artery, filtered
through almost 100 feet of loose
cellophane tubing wrapped
around a revolving drum, and is
pumped back into an arm vein
at the pressure and rate of the
heart beat.
It takes two pints of blood to
prime the machine. Then the
patients own blood pressure
from an open artery regulates
the initial flow. A small, artifi-
cial booster pump keyed to the
heart action insures the proper
return of the blood.
Young Charles is the son of
Mrs. Lottie Adler of 324 Ridge
road Sc. He is a student at
Sousa Junior High School.
AS a special treat on St. Pat
rick's Day, Charles was allowed
to eat a very thin slice of green
cake.
Hes getting hungry" the
doctor said, "but I can depend
on him absolutely. He and the
doctors here are partners in this
thing"

Hatchett Quits Race,
Backs Fenwick for
Virginia Governor

The Virginia gubernatorial
campaign of State Senator
Charles r. Fenwick gained an
added boost today by the with
drawal from the race of w. Rus
sell Hatchett, who threw his sup
port to Mr.. Fenwick.
Mr.. .Hatchett, former town
manager of Virginia Beach, is
a leader of forces opposed to the
Byrd organization in Eastern
Virginia.
Mr.. Hatchett's withdrawal
eliminates the possibility of a
runoff primary after the regular
July IA primary because only
two candidates now remain in
the field.
Both Senator Fenwick, a
Washington patent attorney, and
his opponent. former Represent
ative Thomas B. Stanley, are
identified with the Byrd organ
ization.
Mr.. Hatchett's announcement
was made last night at a rally
in Warwick, the Associated Press
reported. Mr.. Hatchett said he
didn't have enough money to
wage an effective campaign.
The 50-year-old insurance and
real estate executive commended
Senator Fenwick as a man of
sound Judgment"
He said he doesn't agree with
the Arlington lawmaker on all
counts, but believes "his elec-
ton will assure a more progress
Sive Virginia.
Indorsing Senator Fenwick's S
plan to set up a special State
agency to try to WOO new in
dustry into Virginia, Mr.. Hatchett
declared something is wrong
with the States economy be-
cause of its lack of smokestacks." 4"
Mr.. Hatchett deviated from
his text to criticize the cam
paign being waged by the o.
year-old Mr.. Stanley and said
it was a shocking condition"
when State legislators and off,

Oman May Testify
If Group Will Stop
Pub|icizing Gossip

Methodist Bishop G. Bromley
Oman of Washington today an
nounced he might appear volun-
tarily before the House Commit
tee on Un-American Activities if
he can persuade it to abandon a
practice of publicizing un-evalu-
ated files on individuals.
His announcement marks a
shift from a position he took
yesterday that he was unwilling
to appear at a public hearing.
The bishop told members of
the Associated Church Press
yesterday that the committee
was engaging in "tax-supported
dissemination of gossip"
He said he had offered to meet
Committee Chairman Velde and
his committee in private, either
under oath or voluntarily, but
had received no reply. He said
he had objected to appearing
at an open hearing because the
public was unable to distinguish
between a voluntary witness and
one appearing under subpoena.
Earlier yesterday, the Rev.
Carl McIntire, president of the
American Council of Christian
Churches, challenged Bishop Ok
nam to testify under oath before
the committee.

Kidney Device Keeps Boy Alive rs Days

A boy who can be trusted not
to nibble at his candy Easter
eggs until the doctor gives the
word, is making medical history
at Georgetown University Hos
pital.
In fact. the forbearance of
13-year-old Charles Shiffiet is
almost as singular as the length,
of time he has been under treat
ment with an artificial kidney.
For As days nova new record
in the Washington area-young
Charles has been under the care
of specialists who operate the
complex machine that filters the
poisons from his blood stream.
Each treatment with the ma
chine, at intervals of around
three weeks. requires more labo-
ratory. medical and technical
preparation than q major
surgical operation.
After his second treatment,
WHICH occurred April !, Charles
seems to be improving or at least
holding his own against the
kidney ailment which all but
claimed his life a month ago.
At that time the reaction from
the kidney disease almost halted
the boys heart.
Gains in Strength.
Charles has gained in strength,
spirits and appetite since the
man-made kidney took the strain
off his system. There are hope
full signs that nature may repair
the boys diseased kidneys in the
periods between the filtering
processes.
The specialist, who has given
Charles more attention than a
millionaire can expect, rates his
chance of recovery as reason
ably good" The physician asked
today:
well, what's your chief COM
plant. old fellow?"

Morningside Awaits Summer,
And Solution to Dry Faucets

Two years ago yesterday a
bomber crashed into a Morning.
side (Md.) home and three died.
Since that tragic day residents
of the town have been trying to
correct what they consider an
inadequate" water system in
Morningside.
The chief Of the commanity's'
volunteer fire department, Ger
aid A. Glaubitz, reiterated bis
belief that one. of the three vic
Tins of the crash and subsequent
fire could have been saved # the
water supply had been ample.
There is one fire hydrant to-
day in Morningside, a commun-
ity of 383 homes and / $50 .'esi-
dents.
Two town council members,
two residents and Chief Glau-
bitz described their futile efforts
to keep the taps flowing in
MorningSide-efforts that date
back several years before the
bomber fell on April 8, 1851.
Meet Near Scene.
They met in the home of Will
liam Jay Lowery at 303 Poplars
road. across the street from the
crash scene. Mr.. Lowery is an
ordnance engineer and a former
B-25 pilot.
Present also were H. w. Shu-
CARTS, town council member and
director of health and safety;
Harold H. Hoover, chairman of
public utilities on the council,
and R. w. Neale, of 800 Poplars
road.
The group said that in an av-
erage summer month, at least
half the residents of the area
report water cut-offs on IS days.
They also declared that:
Their water company does not
maintain sufficient pressure; it
has a reserve supply inadequate
for emergencies; it has little
standby equipment and. the
company does not keep an en-
ploye at the water plant on "a
hour duty.
The water is supplied by a
private concern, the Morningside
Village Water Co., Inc. It is
drawn from wells and stored in
a tank with a 45,000-gallon Ca
pacity.
Calls Charge "Untrue."
Randolph Hopkins of West
River, Md, president of the COM
pany, said charges of inadequacy
in the water system are untrue.
Morningside homes have
plenty of water, he said, adding
that if water pressure falls low
in the summer it's because resi-
dents "open up their hoses on
purpose"
Mr.. Hopkins said a new $50
gallon-a-minute pump would be

in operation on a new well for
the system in two weeks.
Harry B. Shaw, chief engineer
of the Washington Suburban
Sanitary Commission, said Mon
day the commission considers a
pressure reading Of 40 very
low"
In February a petition was
signed by more than $50 Morn
ingside citizens asking to be in
cluded in the area serviced by
the WSSC. The commission de-
cided the move could not be
recommended because the cost
would be too great-from $2.5
to SO million for sanitary facili-
ties.
Water is only one of the towns
problems. Montgomery Morrow.
chief of the sanitation division,
Prince Georges County Health
Department, said the depart
ment has strongly advocated
installation of a central sewer
system in Morningside. The
septic tank method of disposal
now used. he said. is unsafe be-
cause of the non -absorptive ma
ture of the ground.
ApDeal to Annan0liS.
The group also had appealed
to the county delegation at
Annapolis. Confident a few
weeks ago a measure would be
introduced to include their town
in the sanitary commission area,
they saw the session wind up
Tuesday with no mention made
of the matter.
Beginning about June, resi-
dents say, the water taps will
start to trickle, cough and dry
up, and by July, when water con-
sumption is high, some homes
will be without water for several
hours nearly every day. Houses
in the higher section of town
the most recently built part
are particularly affected by the
low pressure condition, they
said.
We've been lucky" Chief
Glaubitz said, mot to have an
other serious fire since the bomb
er crash"
A month after the crash, the
town asked permission to tap
into a water main that runs
from the District to Andrews
Air Force Base. The answer was
mo"
AS things are now, the group
said, Morningside housewives
will still have to travel two-and-
a-half miles to the nearest auto
matte laundry when there is no
water: residents will continue to
complain about the raw sewage
that overf1ows from the septic
tanks, and every one fears an
other aircraft some day will fall
into the town.

Corning Fears
Pay Bill Delay
Will Curb Staff
Sees Complete Stop
In Substitute Service
Unless Congress Acts
By james 6. Deone

Congress has less than two
weeks to prevent District substi-
tute teachers from missing a pay
day, School Supt. Hobart M.
Corning said today,
Delay in granting a requested
$4,000 emergency appropriation
also carries the risk of complete
ly stopping substitute services
meaning some children might be
without an instructor when
teachers get sick, DR.. Corning
warned.
Teacher pay day is April %.
Between 800 and $50 substitutes
are on the rolls, although a few
may not have worked during the
affected pay period.
The substitutes are paid once
a month for the preceding
month. They get $11 for each
day worked. The maximum pay
ment for March would be $242
for % school days.
The public school system ran
out Of substitute pay funds last
month. The $4,000 item is in
a District supplemental appro-
priation bill, but DR.. Corning said
he hopes Congress will act on
the teacher pay separately if it
doesn't get to the whole bill in
time.
Rent Workers Lose Pay.
Pay for employees of the Dis
trict rent control Office also has
run out and they have missed
a payday.
Budget Officer Walter L. Fow-
Ter said he doesn't know when
Congress might act. Testimony
on the emergency already has
been completed before the House
Appropriations Committee, but
the House is in recess until next
week.
"They know all about it," said
Mr.. Fowler, but he added he
isn't too hopeful.
Substitute service has been
curtailed, and parents have been
asked by some principals to be
ready to volunteer if teachers
become unavailable. Parents, in
fact. are helping out already in
some schools.
To Avoid TV Meeting.
On another matter, meanwhile,
DR.. Corning told reporters this
morning he will boycott a meet
ing of the Greater Washington
Educational Television Associa-
ton, Inc, tomorrow.
The association, a corporation
formed recently to seek control
of the Districts educational TV
channel, has invited the District
school system and other area
school systems and institutions
to form a board of trustees.
But the District Board of Edu-
cation has filed its own applica-
ton with the Federal Communi-
cations Commission for the
channel. DR.. Corning said as
far as he knows the board has
no intention of joining the other
group.
Earl Minderman, association
leader. said tomorrow's session
also will consider bylaws and a
Embarrassing plan at 2 pm. in
the Cosmos Club.
