Attempt 10 Liquidaie
Traffic Ticket Is Failure

An attempt to spirit away
a traffic ticket came to naught
in Municipal Court today.
Park Police Pvt. Thomas K.
Baber told Municipal Judge John
Malloy that he had ticketed
cab driver Herman p. Ortenzo,
a.. Of the 100 block M street Sc.
for passing q red light last De-
cember 80.
About q week later, Pvt. Baber
testified, a package arrived at
his home. He got a jolt when
he opened 1t. It contained q
fifth Of whisky. Fastened to it
by q rubber band was the trafic
ticket. The officer placed the
bottle before Judge Malloy. who
glanced at it and instructed Pvt.
Baher to take up the matter with
the corporation counsel's Office.
Ortenzo, charged only with
the traffic offense. pleaded guilty
to highballing through the red
light from a standing start. He
was fined SIS.

4-Parfy Coalition Seeks
To End Italian Crisis
BY the Assoeioted Press

ROME. Feb. GA revived
four-party center coalition stood
ready with a common political
program today, hopeful it will
end Italy's extended political
crisis.
The leaders Of the four pro-
Western partieS-the Christian
Democrats, Social Democrats,
Liberals and Republicans -
agreed on the program last night.
They did not, however, reveal
its details.
They announced only that
they would present it to the
man President Luigi Einaudi
picks to try to form a new gov
eminent.
The diminutive, 79-year-old
chief Of state is expected to de-
liver his charge by Monday at
the latest.
The four parties supported
Alcide de Gasperi as premier
for eight postwar years. and most
observers predicted Mr.. Einaudi
will call on the Christian DEM
ocratic leader to take on the
premiership again.
If Mr.. de Gasperi turns down
the job, it probably will go to
his tough former interior min
lister. Mario Scelba, another
Christian Democrat.

Republicans to present a solid

He warned that if the Repub-

Further, the Vice President
said bluntly: IF we do not elect

in which there are such words

this economy must be conser-
vative. It must be solvent.

Area Police Officials
Hope 10 Start School
In Traffic Training

Metropolitan Area police ON
Gals have agreed to try to in
itiate an area-wide traffic train
ing school for recruits Of the
various police forces.
The meeting at which the de-
cision was reached was held yes
terday as the result of a recon-
mendation submitted last year
at the Commissioners and Gov
errors Traffic Conference.
Before steps are taken to
establish the school, however,
questionnaireS will go out to
chiefs of the numerous smaller
police forces around the District.
Most Of these were not repre-
sented at yesterdays session.
Officials want to know how the
smaller forces feel about the idea
and what hours would be con-
venient for training.
Brig. Gen. Louis w. Prentiss,
District Engineer Commissioner
and chairman Of the Commits
sioners' and Governors Confer
ence. called the meeting. The
purpose Of area-wide training,
he said. is to achieve uniformity
in traffic law enforcement, and
also to provide specialized in
Struction for the small communi-
ty forces that would not other
wise get it.
Deputy Chief John Agnew,
head of the Metropolitan police

Glorious Challenge
To Live in This Time

What a glorious challenge
we have, what a privilege to
live In this time. We know
these threats to our system
from abroad. We know these
things that we have seen hap
pening from within that have
alarmed us.
Let us be courageous. Let
us lift our chins. our heads,
and square our shoulders, and
walk right square into it like
Lincoln would have walked
into it.
Let us not be afraid to be
humble. as he was humble
when 1t was necessary. But
let us, when it comesrdown to
the basic purpose Of the Re-
publican Party: To preserve
this Nation as it has existed
and to make Government serve
the needs Of all Of our peo-
pie, no matter in what way
they need it to be done, let us
be just as courageous as Lin
coin was courageous, as he
met the problems of four
years Of dreadful civil war,
with brother against brother,
with State against State.
II we meet it in that way.
1t seems 70 me we will meet it
almost with delight, with hap
pinesS that it has been given
to us, in our time to serve our
country.
Those men who fought on
the battlefields Of Gettysburg
served their country. which,
ever side they were on. They
believed in something. They
did 1t to the utmost of their
ability.
If We would do it in that
way, We don't have to listen
to the prophets of gloom who
say that we are going to 20
into a kind of stumble or
tumble or fall. The United
States doesn't need to fall.

Recalls Lincoin's
Gettysburg Address

1t was only a bit more than
four score and ten years ago
that very great man said:
-Four score and seven years
ago our fathers brought forth
upon this continent a new
nation, conceived in liberty
and dedicated to the PROPOSE
ton that all men are created
equal"
Now, as he ended that great
speech, a classic not only In
the English language but in
philosophical thought, Abra-
ham Lincoln said that govern
ment by the people and for
the people and of the people
shall not perish from the
earth.
That was his philosophy. He
uttered those words in a time
OF crisis. He dedicated his
whole being to that one
thought. that government by
the people and for and of the
people should not perish. He
endured every indignity. We
think Of him today as a great
leader. He offered to hold
McClellan's horse If Mcclellan
would win a victory. There was
nothing. no sacrifice, he would
not make to say we will pre-
serve this Nation as it has
existed for four score and
seven years.
Now, in his time the threat
was a physical one-physical
disunion Of this great United
States. But, my friends, he was
only voicing a thought, he
was only crystalizing a threat
that has been with every type
OF free government since free
government was first conceived.
Always there is the struggle
between domination by the
Few and government Of them
selves by the many. And he
was determined it should not
perish.
And in every age and ev-
cry time. there have been peo-
pie so dedicated. And it is
for that reason that free gov
eminent exists today.
And we are no different
from those who have gone be-
fore us. We in our time must
make certain that the genius
Of the Constitution, and of
our Government, shall not per-
1sh. that it shall belong to
the young and to those who
come after us in the same
general form that it has been
received by us.
Now. in doing this. Abraham
Lincoln said something else of
a very profound character.
THE legitimate function of
government" he said, sis to do
for the individuals that what
they cannot do for themselves,
or cannot do SO we'll for them
selves" In this we find the
expression Of his great heart.
his determination that gov
eminent should be interested
in people. in that persons
disasters, in their privileges,
in their rights-everytime that
went to enrich their life or to
damage that life was a legiti-
mate concern of government.
And when necessary. govern
ment would directly intervene.
