Chairman Miller OF the House
District Health and Welfare Sub
committee yesterday indorsed the
transfer of National Training
School girls to Blue Plains. but
he emphasized this move is "only
a makeshift."
DR.. Miller paid a visit to the
Industrial Home School for Col
ored Children at Blue Plains Fri
day. He went through the cot
tage to which the girls will be
sent within the month.
The red-brick double cottage
has capacity of so, and it's own
dining and recreation rooms. 1t
is one of the newer buildings in
the half-century-old institution
and is at the end of the line OF
cottages.
Sees. Better Environment.
DR.. Miller, who the previous
week had visited the National
Training School for Girls on
Loughboro road, said he believed
the Blue Plains institution would
provide better environment.
He stressed, however, that the
District still must go forward
with it's plans to build a $3.7
million institution for colored
boys and girls in the Children s
Center at Laurel. Md. An ap-
preparation of 81 million is being
requested in the pending District
budget.
IF the District can get that
million dollars to start construc-
tion at LAUREL" DR.. Miller said,
sssit will mean the eventual solu-
tion of some of the problems the
city now has with its child
wards"
In the meantime, he suggested
that some of the living room
furniture be moved from the Ma
tinoal Training School to Blue
Plains to give the cottage a more
homelike atmosphere. He also
suggested that the. interior of the
cottage be painted before the
girls move in.
THE girls own furniture would
be a big help" he said. Boys
don't need it but girls do"
Plans Training Courses.
Harold Jones, superintendent
of the school program at Blue
Plains. which will now be coed
ucational. said he was planning
academic, cosmetology, business
training, personal hygiene and
home economics courses for the
girls. He told DR.. Miller he had
talked to the girls and that a
training program would be
planned for each of them.
To make room for the girls at
Blue Plains. so of the younger
boys are being transferred to the
Junior Village, the institution for
small dependent children which
now will occupy the entire
Loughboro road site.
DR.. Miller was told that be-
cause of overcrowding at Blue
Plains the average stay of boys
in the institution is four and a
half months. He agreed with
school officials that this was toe
short a time for rehabilitation.
Blue Plains now has 176 boys
At the planned institution at
Laurel. there will be space for
800 boys which will enable the
institution to keep the boys for
longer periods and cut down the
repeater rate.
Visits Home for Aged.
DR.. Miller, who is planning to
visit all the District health and
welfare institutions, also went

The United States En-
ployment Service reported

Citizens Fight
10 Rent
Anphithedter
Proposal to Shift
Mckinley School
Status Also Opposed

StotuS ALSO opposed
The Federation of Citizens
Associations last night opposed
commercialization of the Car
ter Barron Amphitheater in Rock
Creek Park.
In a separate action, the fed
Grafton also opposed proposals
to shift Mckinley High School
from white to colored status.
Opposition to the renting of
the amphitheater to commercial
organizations was brought to the
fore by Carl A. Baumann, pres
ident of the Sixteenth Street
Highlands Citizens Association,
in presenting resolution passed
by his group.
1rreparable Damage Cited.
After citing the location of the
amphitheater near a restricted
residential section containing
many large and beautiful
homes" the resolution declared
that commercial use of it would
irreparably damage the welfare
and the property rights of the
residents"
Frank H. Collins, second vice.
president of the federation and
chairman of the District Board
of Recreation, urged the resolu-
ton be tabled pending a meeting
Monday with Interior Depart
ment and other officials. Mr..
Collins said the meeting would
be attended by National Capital
Parks representatives as well as
officers of the protesting asso-
citation to try to work out a sat-
isfactory solution. His motion
was voted down.
1t was brought out that the
amphitheater is rented out by
National Capital Parks for $50
a night. This, it was said, would
not cover the cost of extra park
police details.
The federation made it clear
it was not objecting to use of
the site for civic non commercial
events.
New Junior High Asked.
The resolution urging that Nc
Kinley High be kept in division
l stressed that the institution is
the only white technical high
school in the District. It also
emphasized that the school offers
basic courses in engineering.
In another school action the
federation voted to urge Con-
gress to appropriate in the 1854
District budget $2,489.050 TO
build new junior high school
at Fourth street and Mississippi
avenue Sc. The resolution cited
current overcrowding of Kramer
Junior High now serving the
southeast area.
Turning to the suffrage issue,
the Federation voted approval
of a 9-6 vote of the executive
board favoring principles of the
Case bill. The bill calls for
non-voting District delegate to
Congress. Z
Backtracks on Decision.
The organization showed signs
of backtracking on a previous
approval of the Holland bill
which would give the Public
Utilities Commission the right
to pass on a Capital Transit Co.
application for increased fares
for school children. Upon mo-
ton of Delegate. David Babp,
it voted to reconsider it's action
in approving the bill. The fed
Grafton also moved to consider
an investigation of Capital
Transit.
With a dinner of the fedora
ton scheduled for next Satur-
day night, the members voted
to cancel the scheduled March
81 meeting and adjourn sine die.
Earlier, the new red and
white flag of the Federation was
displayed. At the same time, the
members honored Mrs. Carrie
G. Smith, 81, a member of the
federation for Is years and a
prime mover in obtaining the
flag.

two to take up Hawaiian state
hood.
House Democratic Leader Ray
burn Of Texas, Representative
Smith of Virginia and other
prominent Democrats from the
South. as well as New York, op-
pose the Statehood measure.
With them. as well as with
some Republicans, the differ
ences are on matters of principle.
politics. procedure, timeliness or
other considerations. They in
clude such varied stands as
outright opposition, cautious re-
servations or postponement pro-
poSalS.
Opposition in G. o. p.
Most Republicans favor add
ing Hawaii as the 49th State
now and delaying action on a
similar request for Alaska. That
is the administration position.
Among leading Republicans who
have indicated they will vote
against it are Representatives
Nicholson of Massachusetts,, a
member Of the Rules Committee,
and Coudert of New York.
Predicting stepped-up drives
in behalf Of Alaska, Puerto Rico
and perhaps other possessions if
Hawaii makes the grade this
year, Mr.. Coudert planned to in
troduce a constitutional amend
ment resolution today to tighten
the methods Of admitting new
States. 49,. .-.-...
: His proposed amendment would
bar such admissions unless ap-
proved by two-thirds of each
branch Of Congress and by three
fourths of State legislatures or
constitutional conventions.
Parliamentary Difficulty.
A parliamentary difficulty also
confronts Democrats. Speaker
Martin. backed by the House
parliamentarian, is expected to
rule against any proposed
amendment to include Alaska in
the Hawaiian bill. Advocates of
the pending bill are ready to
contend that an Alaskan amend
ment would not be germane to
the pending measure.
Although Republicans in the
House. and repeatedly in the
Senate. have the votes, including
many from the Democratic side,
they recognize that the debate
this week carries greater risk
than in the past. The House
passed Hawaiian statehood bills
in 1947 and 1850. The question
has been considered at commit
tee hearings in nine successive
Congresses.
