Mrs. Lows birthplace is large
four-story home, an excellent
example Of Regency architec-
ture. The Girl Scouts have
bought the home and hope with
the money yet to be collected
to renovate it for use as a living
memorial to the founder Of the
Girl Scout program.
"We are going to make it q
mecca for all Girl Scouts" Mrs.
Frick said, "a place where Scouts
can come on summer trips for
a more personal contact with
the heritage of our organiza-

Since that time she has served
as regional chairman for three
years and a member of the ma

Her plans for renovation of
the Savannah home are in line
with the thinking of the $50
Senior Scouts attending the con-

One Of them, Jacqueline Spen-
Ger, Is, member Of Troop 8 at
College Park, Md, said the reno

different for Scouts"
Jacqueline is interested in

Housing Fight Due
On Floor Of Senate,
Capehart Believes
ByL. A. o'Leoy

The fight to end the Govern
ment's public housing program,
which is building up as result
of a Supreme Court decision
against segregation in such prof.
ects. probably will come on the
Senate floor next week instead
of in the Banking Committee.
This was forecast by Chair
man Capehart after the commit
tee discussed the issue in closed
session today. +"
Senator Maybank, Democrat,
of South Carolina, a strong sup
porter of public housing in the
past. announced last night that
the Supreme Court decision last
Monday in the California hous-
ing case has caused him to
change his mind.
If most of the Southern DEM
ocratS follow suit and add their
votes to the conservative Repub-
licanS who have always opposed
public housing on economic
grounds. the continuation of the
program will be in danger.
Senator Maybank said he has
asked the legislative drafting ex-
perts to prepare an amendment
which would prevent the start
ing of any more public housing.
Only a week ago the Banking
Committee, on Senator May
banks. motion, voted 1873 to re-
vive the 1949 law under which
up to $4,000 public housing
units could be authorized an
nually for several years.
Chairman Capehart predicted
today his committee will report
the 1854 housing bill by Friday
with the public housing provi-
sion still in it. But he admitted
q fight will be made on the floor
to strike out public housing.
Senator Capehart was one of
the three who voted against pub
lie housing last week, but he said
today he did so only because he
thought the 1949 program was
too large. There were indica-
tions that he might vote for a
smaller program on the floor.
In the decision Senator May
bank referred to, the Supreme
Court turned down an ap-
peal by the San Francisco
Housing Authority from q Cali
fornia lower court ruling, ban
ming segregation in low-rent
housing projects.
Senator Sparkman, Democrat,
OF Alabama, leader in the fight
for housing legislation since the
Government entered that field,
was not ready to comment on the
Maybank announcement.
