gional high schools to provide
for the unusual growth In the

1--WE cannot solve these prob
lens today or tomorrow" he
said. "Yet, in fidelity to the
teaching of Christ and in a spirit
of Christian charity and justice.

The Rev. Leo j. Coady. arch
diocesan director of charities.
explained that existing Catholic
homes can take care Of "only a
small fraction of the requests. T"
Archbishop O'Boyle. in his
statement. noted that 116 build
ingS have been erected in the
archdiocese during the past five
years, SO being schools and adj
ditions to schools. He called this
effort lone of the largest church
and school building programs in
the country"
More Projects Needed.
The Right Rev. Msgr. John S.
Spence, archdioceSan director of
education, warned that even the
proposed program will not take
care of new students resulting
from rapid population growth.
This year Catholic elemen-
tary schools will graduate 1,752
pupils. and existing high schools
will be able to take only 1881
pupils in the first year of high
school," he said.
by 1860. there will be at least
3.762 graduates from elementary
schools with the result that more
than 2.100 of these will not be
able to enter a Catholic high
school unless additional high
school facilities are built"
Campaign plans are to raise
the funds over several years
through individual donations
and by parish assessments. No
sites have as yet been selected
for the proposed home or school
buildings.

Planners Urge Speed
In Getting Funds for
Road Improvements

The National Capital Planning
Commission, in a formal state
ment. has called on, Washington
area officials to speed simulta-
neous action to obtain appropria-
tons for highway improvements
in accordance with its compre-
hensive plan.
The commission believes that
a continuing capital investment,
public works. program-such as
that submitted to the Congress by
the Commissioners of the Dis
trlct of Columbia including espe-
cially major highway improve
ments-is necessity" the policy
statement said.
"The commission believes that
the stimulating impact of such a
program upon the several neigh
boring jurisdictions in Maryland
and Virginia will promote and
encourage desirable and essential
coordination of the respective
public works programs of all
these Jurisdictions to the great
advantage of each." it added.

sought from Congress to cover
the Districts and the National
Park Services highway improve
ments in the District, and from
the proper sources for those of
Maryland and Virginia in the
area. the commission said.
The District has its public
works program before Congress.

Slve plan and the Districts high

Gov. MckeIdin
inIndicfmeni
OF Fulton Lewis
Browning Charges
Governor RetoIiuted
Against Newsmon

A leading Montgomery County
Democrat yesterday accused
Gov. McKeldin of procuring" an
indictment against Radio Com
mentator Fulton Lewis, jr.. in
retaliation for the trouble" the
commentator caused him.
Warren Browning, chairman
Of the county's State Central
Committee, attacked the Cover
nor's alleged action as "the most
damaging thing done by a public
official in Maryland in a long
time"
1.-THE Governor retaliated
against Fulton Lewis, jr., for
trouble Mr.. Lewis has been CIV
ing him." Mr.. Browning told the
Montgomery County Press Asso-
citation.
Lewis Letter Cited.
"The Governor procured an in
dictment against a newspaper
man for charges he made against
minor EST. Marys) County off,
Gals" he added.
A letter to the Governor from
Mr.. Lewis was the sole basis of
one of the two indictments for
criminal libel. Mr.. Browning said.
The Democratic leader said
the indictment for criminal libel
is a common law offense for
which the truth is not defense.
The essential element of this
offense is that Mr.. Lewis has
said something that might pro-
woke violence or a breach Of the
peace. Mr.. Browning said.
1.-The Governor is in an I'M
enviable position, he added.
Party Harmony Sought.
Mr.. Browning also told the
press association that on the 10
cal level, progress was being
made to stop Democrats from
fighting among themselves. He
added that although all groups
and factions were putting up
their candidates, party leaders
did not expect another knock
down, dragout primary fight"
George Warner, member of the
Republican State Central Com
mittee, said he hoped that Louis
A. Gravelle. present Republican
member of the county council,
would lead the local ticket.
Mr.. Warner. describing the Re-
publican party as the party Of
the right. said "our primary en-
envy is the extreme left wing of
the Democratic party led by such
individuals as Truman, Senators
Humphrey, Lehman, and Mich
igan governor) 'Soapy' Williams. ="
Socialism" Is Issue.
The Republican leader said
the national issue of whether
the country is going down the
road to state socialism" also ex-
lists on the local level.
Both officials spoke of the as
seSSment picture in the county.
Mr.. Browning blamed Republic
cans for the high assessments
and resulting loss in State school
funds. Mr.. Warner described the
assessments as unfortunate"
blamed other counties for not
keeping up with Montgomery in
raising assessments to the level
set by the State Tax Commission.

dent of the Press Association.

BY C. {. ButterfieId

Of football, which is slightly
different from that in the United
States, will suffice to I'LL the
sports gap on the network re-
mains to be seen. Anyway.
viewers will have to get used
to seeing II men instead Of II

five instead Of six points. Teams
have only three plays In which

field blocking is permitted only
within 10 yards of the scrim-
mage line.
WHY so EXCITED?-I don't
know why Dave Garroway and
his To-day" crew got so ex-
cited over the return of the pro-
grams chimpanzee. j. Fred
Mugs. Certainly that animal
was as unruffled after his five-
week tour of the world as he was
before.
He has been back four days
now, and so far has given not
the slightest indication whether
his much publicized trip did any
thing for him. He still isn't
amenable to direction and
actually seems more pesky than
ever.
The sole reason for j. Fred in
the program, of course, is the
fact animals are amusing.
That's all right, but I'd ques-
ton whether the nice sum, re-
ported at more than $500 a week,
he gains for his owners, Buddy
Menella and Ray Waldron, is
fully earned.
Personally. I'd like to see him
do a trick occasionally, rather
than just try to eat up the script.

Arthur Godfrey, down on the

That would bring him to town
in time to get his Wednesday

placing the more formal musical

start with the morning formal,
and before it went of for eight
weeks Godfrey brought back q
sample or two.
This was the first time the
show has dropped out for the
vacation period, one purpose
being to let Godfrey slow up a
little. But there also wac the
fact that the programs rating
had eased off, sometimes COM
pletely out of the first 10. a sit
uation in radio and TV that
generally is conducive to change.

wrong. A memory gnawed at my
mind there must be something to
do. Then, smiling, I grasped the
phone. Quickly I dialed.
''Mary, can you use more pies? I
have plenty of time" My eager voice
faded slowly as Mary's casual re-
fusal came crisply back. ''But Mary,
surely I didn't mean that didn't

was too busy and didn't want to. Oh,
Mary, 1 don't have anything at all
to do! No, Mary :. No don't hang
up -"
Dazed1y stared at the dead phone,
then slowly hung it up and dropped
my head into my folded arms.
Like a flash it all came to me. I
had wanted to be free. had begged
Dave for months to get help for me
so that could be free of my home,
free of all demands made upon me
by my friends and family.
Shuddering, realized that now I
had what wanted. I had no respon-
sibilities at all s. nothing :. just
a void where once had been work
and love and loyalty. I was free at
last Free. No one needed my pies,
no one needed my mending, my sew
ing, my help. No one needed me for
anything at all.
TEARS STUNG MY eyes, my
| throat frightened. Not needed! Oh, if
I could only hear one of the children
crying for me to fix something for
them or if the phone would ring and
Mary's voice would ask for million
pies I'd happily shout, ''Yes!"
Sobs shook me and gentle hands
grasped my shaking shoulders,
