learning, nor practical applica-
ton of their learning. both Of
which are pressing necessities.
Schools Not Goddess
But one point want to make
clear to all parents Of school
children from grade school
through college. Schools Of
America are not goddess. nor do
they neglect character training.
People who make this charge do
some queer reasoning-or do they
reason?
These are quick to say that any
Red Hinged teacher must not
teach because-now mark this
because even though they do not
teach their doctrine, it emanates
from their personalities, and in
fluences the pupils. I'll. accept
that.
Then-when men and women
of fine character. teachers whose
lives are daily expression OF
right living, right thinking. born
of religious attitude, of faith in
God, teach, do not these quail
ties reach the pupils? Is not
God in the classroom along with
them?
It is not necessary to teach a
creed to teach about God and
His way. It is necessary that the
teacher be one whom God loves
And, that, in my experience over
a lifetime, holds in the public
schools as elsewhere.

What Washington residents
pay for public utilities is going
up because wages and the prices
of materials are on the increase,
Chairman Robert E. Mclaughlin
of the District Public Utilities
Commission told Sphinx Club
luncheon yesterday.
Speaking at Almas Temple, he
also acknowledged that the COM
mission was wrong In estimating
how much the Capital Transit
Co. would make out of recently
increased rates.
The commission estimated, he
related, that the new fares
would give the company a re-
turn of 6.23 per cent on its
investment. However, he de-
clared, at the end of June the
company was earning only AL
per cent--and mo doubt is
earning less now"

Keneipp Tells Why
Porkwoy's 55-MiIe
Limit Drops to 30

The new Baltimore-Wash-
ington parkway's 55-mile
speed limit scales down to
IS at Kenilworth and then
to a slow 80 on the Dis
trict's six-lane extension Of
New York avenue NE.
The reason for the low
speed on the big road is
one of the mQst often asked
questions about it.
Traffic Director George E.
Keneipp's answer:
1--WE need a deceleration
from SIS miles an hour COM
ing into the city and there's
only little more than a mile
to get it. Besides, if we let
all the cars come tearing
into Bladensburg road
there'd be too many cars
for the traffic signals to
handle.
"And boosting the limit
from 80 to 40 for a mile
would only save 80 seconds.
Is it worth it?"

Ex-MenfaI Patent
Convicted on Morals
Count Involving Girl.
Star STAFF Photo.

A man, who previously had
spent approximately 10 years in
mental institutions, was convict
ed yesterday by a jury of taking
indecent liberties with a 9-year-
old girl in August, 1858.
He is James E. Clatterbuck.
SO, of Burnley Va. The jury
in the U. S. District Court for
the District of Columbia deliber-
ated about four hours in reach
ing its verdict.
Defense counsel contended
Clatterbuck was insane at the
time of the offense. Government
psychiatrists testified at the
trial that Clatterbuck has a
"psychopathic personality" but
that he is not insane.
Shortly after he was indicted
in 1853, Clatterbuck was found
to be of unsound mind. His
condition was described as an
"undifferentiated psychosis." AT
a court hearing last month, he
was found of sound mind.
Judge F. Dickinson Let's
after yesterdays verdict, re-
ferred Clatterbuck's case to the
probation officer pending SEN
tence.
Assistant United States At
torney John F. Doyle, who pros
ecuted Clatterbuck, said the
defendant had been given time
here for a sex offense in 1941
From 1912 to 1948 Clatterbuck
was a patient at st. Elizabeth's
Hospital, MIR. Doyle said.
From 1949, Mr.. Doyle said
Clatterbuck was patient in q
mental hospital in Staunton, Va.
until escaping there in July
1858. Clatterbuck was visiting
here at the time of the offense
of which he was convicted yes.

Mony Who Helped
Develop 'Dreum'
See It Opened
BY George Beveridqe

The new Baltimore Washing
ton parkway got a real break
ing-in today, with thousands OF
motorists out for the first try
at the latest in easy. speedy
driving.
The very first streams Of cars.
backed up and waiting, were
waved through barricades Sec
onds after brief dedication cere-
monies yesterday morning. The
men who have had most to do
with the long delayed develop
ment of the $50 million parkway
were on hand to give it q send
of.
Even so, the ceremony wasn't
exactly what had been planned.
The dedication marked the
opening of a 11a-mile District
connection that leads out New
York avenue extended from
Bladensburg road NE. and q
connecting 19-mile Federally
built section. The Federal part
meets a 10-mile Maryland-con-
structed stretch that has been
open for a year.
Mckay Away.
The original idea was to have
top officials from the three juris-
dictions on hand at the earliest
moment the full-length drive
would be ready for traffic. But
Interior Department officials said
Secretary Mckay would be out
of town and that they would hold
their own dedication later if the
road were opened now.
So District officials went ahead
with their ceremony yesterday,
as soon as all the roads finish
ing touches were completed.
No invitations were sent out.
But most of the men who had an
actual hand in the big project
were there to look on.
They included H. ]. Spelman.

gineer who supervised the Federal
road construction; Edward j.

National Capital Parks, which
controls the Federal parkway;
Federal planners, and Robert
Reindollar, who headed the
State Roads Commission when
Maryland got into the picture
seven years ago.
Representative Fallon. Demo-
crat, of Maryland, who played a
major role in getting construction
funds as head of a House sub
committee in 1948, said in a
brief talk the parkway was "a
dream I had five years ago come
true"
Safe Alternate for Route 1.
He told a reporter the main
thing the parkway meant to him
was a "safe alternate to Route l,
the most dangerous 80 miles in
the country"
District Highway Director j. N.
Robertson and the three city
Commissioners praised the joint
efforts of the three jurisdictions
that made the new parkway
possible. Brig. Gen. Louis w.
Prentiss, Engineer Commissioner,
said he hoped other roads with
the same high standards" will
follow soon throughout the area.
The dedication took place on
q part Of the six-lane New York
avenue extension that overpasses
a new extension of South Dakota
avenue NE. The South Dakota
extension also links with the
parkway.
The overpass and q nearby
bridge over the Pennsylvania
Railroad tracks have one of the
most unusual designs in the area,
with 1h-inch aluminium cables
and posts serving as guard rails
The core Of the cables are steel.
Where the bridge passes over
the railroads high-tension wires,
tall. curved aluminium canopies
line the sides. They are designed
to keep motorists from throw
Ing thing on the wires or tracks
One Grade Crossing.
Although it's not likely to
stop many motorists, the Dis
trict part of the road does have
one grade crossing-the only one
from Bladensburg road to Bal
timore. The crossing, virtually
invisible to motorists, is a Penn.
sylvania Railroad spur that cutl
across the New York avenue ex'
tension to serve industrial plants
near Bladensburg road.
Mr.. Robertson said the spul
is used only about once a week
When it is, cars win be flagges
down. Later. in anticipation o
industrial growth in the. area
traffic lights will be added.
After things settle down ON
cials figure about $4,000 cars
