could have been avoided by compliance with
laws and rules of the road.
Particularly disturbing to the police was
the disclosure that most of the drivers involved
in the killings were veterans at the wheel
holders of permits for six or more years. Liquor
was an important factor in many of the fatal
accidents, the inquiry showed. In the 468 such
crashes 1870 of the drivers were found to have
been drinking intoxicating liquors. The most
dangerous hours were from II pm to am

the time it may not seem a pleasure
to have no occupants.
Martin houses are usually built in
groups of or more, and the whole
colony placed on a pole Is or 20 feet
high. well out from the shade of trees
or buildings.
Each compartment should be at
least inches square, with holes 2i2
inches in diameter, and these en-
frances near the bottom, rather than
near the top, since these birds like to
come out on the little porches, which
also must be provided.
Another favorite house is that for
the wren. This should be by inches,
inch, placed or inches above floor.
In all these houses, perches are best
omitted. A usual failure is to make the
entrance for the wren house too large.
A robin shelf is another garden at
traction. It is best made of bark COW
cred wood, and placed securely in a
crotch of tree. The floor is by 8
inches, with little roof supported on
brackets. but without side bar to
hinder the birds from flying in from
the side. which they like to do.
One more note-yarn put out for
nesting should be dull colored. either
white or gray or brown. Bright colors
are attractive. both to birds and hu-
man observers, but they tend to at
tract notice to nest. and anything
that does that Is not good.

This and That

The interest in bird houses continues
year after year.
And why not?
The very idea of house for the
flyers is interesting.
Something appealing there is in
building and putting up nesting place
that also resembles tiny human habi-
tatiOn.
How desperately we all long for COM
partnership, in this wild world of war
ring atoms!
Alone in the universe. man makes
God in his own image. and patiently
seeks out any little relationship that
ties him to other living creatures.
The bird house is more than house,
then. It is little tie that binds, too.
BaSically, however, it remains just
what it is called, and every precaution
should be made to see that it fulfills
the ideals of house, even in miniature.
Be sure that it has good ventilation.
This can be assured by drilling sew
eral holes near the top. A narrow slit
near the roof will help keep the air
in circulation. This seems to be eSpe-
cially important in the martin house.
Put few small holes in the bottom,
too. so that water may drain out.
Here. as in regular house, care first
must be taken that water does not get
in. There is no basement problem. Give
the roof enough pitch to throw water
OFF. After all, birds are used to rain; 1t
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1954-04-06

is only when water accumulates in the
house that it causes trouble, and the
drilled holes at the bottom will take
care of this. Even the nesting material
will not prevent water from running
out.
If nesting materials are put out in
the yard, do not place them on or too
near bird house.
If wool or string is used, be sure to
provide short lengths only, since some
birds are hanged each year by string
and cord long enough to circle the
neck, that is more than 10 inches long.
The bluebird house remains the ia
vorite of all persons interested in birds.
Any good wood will do, the thicker
the better.
The standard dimensions are. Floor,
by inches; depth, inches; diameter
of entrance, 1l2 inches; distance of
hole above floor, inches. The house
is best placed on post about 4 or S
feet from the ground. Too high means
no bluebirdS.
This should not deter any one from
trying this house higher, as undoubt-
edly part of the charm of these little
dwellings lies in their sheer Ornamental
ton. In other words, if one looks well
high in a tree. put it there. if you
choose. Maybe no bluebird will find it.
Well, in any case, maybe no bluebird
may find it! 1t is part of the pleasure
derived from such activities, though at

Nearby Juvenile Problem

May take this opportunity to thank
your "Greenbelt and Vicinity" colum-
mist, Mrs. Pauline Trattler, for her
cooperation in publicizing the report
on Juvenile Problems in Prince Georges
County? You might be interested to
know that received number of re-
quests from county organizations to
speak before their members on this
problem as the result of her article.
The seriousness of this subject, the
need for citizens of the community to
know how they, as individuals, part of
citizens associations, or as parent
teacher associations, can take active
steps to help solve this problem, are
pointed out in this factual study. Need
say that only through the concern of
all of us to do our part in under
standing the problems and working to
correct it, can it be solved.

Americunism Best Seller

Messrs. Adams and Shea, in their
recent letters have implied that MeSSrS.
Mccarthy and Cohn have taken "un-
popular positions" and that is why
they are having SO much trouble. AS
far as I can find out, both Mccarthy
and Cohn are eager to admit that they
live for but one thing-f1ghting Com
munism. Frankly, I can't think they
could find a more popular position to
take (and rightfully so). So what
unpopular position" have Mccarthy
and Cohn taken? Why, that of es-
pousing McCarthyiSm.
This, I'll admit: McCarthyism is
little unpopular with some of us old
fashioned folk who have not yet UNI
learned the unsophisticated precepts of

those among us who still hold the faith

Arlington Report Cards

This is it! The letter to the Editor
in the April / edition concerning Ar
lington report cards was indeed the
straw that broke this camel's back
Since my arrival in the Washington
area three months ago, I have followed
closely the many write-ups dealing
with parents criticism of the schools.
My reactions have turned from interest
to amusement :. and now to horror!
A veteran of several years of teach
ing, am quite familiar with the prob
lens faced by schools, the greatest of
which is the problem of educating par
ents. T'is indeed fulfilling task to
aid and observe the progress of chill
dren, but it is equally impossible to
progress parents" Education must,
If it is to prepare students to be citizens
of today's world, fill the requirements
of today's world ;. not that of the
past generation. Why must we always
fight change?
AS for the narrative report versus
the alphabetical card -! What So
cialism or communism have to do with
the matter is completely beyond my
power or comprehension, My conclu-
sion is that in this region, if nothing
else can be thrust upon a controversial
issue, to inflict it with the aforemen-
toned terms is your best weapon Isn't
that clouding the issue just bit?
And did the worthy advocates of the
alphabetical report card ever consider
the time element as far as the lowly
teacher is concerned? A narrative re-
port requires much careful study and
observations whereas the alphabetical
report is merely simple matter of
mathematics. AS parent rather like
the idea of my children considered as
individuals rather than letters! AS I
remember We fought revolution once
to establish ourselves as free individ-

servations have revealed that parents

Putting the Party First

There is an important difference between
the cases of James Roosevelt and Representative
Robert L. Condor of California-both of whom
have been refused financial support or indorse-
.ment by Democratic National Chairman
Mitchell.
Mr. Roosevelt is involved in an ugly dis
pute with his wife. The courts are available to
him, however, and the truth or falsity OF his
claims can be established in the courts. Mr..
Condons case is different. He has been denied
clearance by the Atomic Energy Commission on
the ground that he is a security risk" The
Congressional Joint Committee on Atomic En-
ergy has heard testimony from Acc officials
and from Mr.. Condor, the latter denying under
oath that he or any member of his family is
Communist The Joint Committee has made
no finding, however, and it does not appear
that there is any way in which Mr.. Condor
can establish the fact as to whether he is, or
is not, security risk.
Mr. Mitchell is playing it safe in both cases,
although the fair inference is that he has been
reluctant to do so in the case of Mr. Condor.
But the first duty of the national chairman is
to the party. It would be bad day for the
Democrats if the National Committee were to
indorSe Mr.. Roosevelt and then have the courts
affirm the correctness of his wife's charges And
it would be blacker day if Mr.. Condor we're to
be proved security risk after the party had
supported him.
There may be moral of a sort in this ex-
perience. Mr.. Mitchell says the problem was
aggravated for him by the apparent inability of
Mr.. Condor "to find and face his accusers and
their charges" Nevertheless, he decided that
the welfare of the Democratic Party must come
first. There have been complaints from time
to time because the Federal Government dis
misses suspected security risks without giving
them an opportunity to face their accusers
But it would seem that the Government should
be entitled to at least as much consideration
and protection-as the Democratic Party.
