But the Red Cross admits that
it still has a long way to go be-

'every American a swimmer,
every swimmer a life saver"
When the program was started
in 1914 it had only one instruc-

In the 40 years of its operation
more than 9.3 million certificates

If Enemy Missiles
Got Past Boston
Well, That's All

A guided-miSsle expert said
last night that a successful de-
tense of Washington from an
enemy air attack would require
detection Of the bombing planes
no closer than Boston.
Henry H. Porter, assistant d.
rector of the Johns Hopkins APP
piled Physics Laboratory, Silver
Spring, said that If bombers got
closer than 375 miles from WASH
ington-the distance of Boston
before being spotted, they might
get through to their target.
In a talk to the National Cap
ital Astronomers Club, Mr.. Por-
ter said that he was estimating
bomber speed at 900 miles an
hour and speed of defense mis-
siles at 1900 miles an hour. At
that rate he said, detection over
Boston would enable Washington
defenses to launch missiles when
the. planes were over Whining
ton. Del, and shoot them down
over Elkton, Md.

Cama|ier Backs Plan
For New Building on
Blue Plains Grounds

Commissioner Renah =. Cam
alier said last night that he will
ask the Commissioners to re-
quest the next session of Con-
gress for special funds to build
a new Receiving Home for Chill
gdren at Blue Plains.
I. Mr.. Camalier said last
Wednesdays disturbance at the
home, 1000 Mount Olivet road
NE, demonstrates the made
quacy of present plans for en-
largement. Girl inmates of the
home smashed windows and tore
their clothing in a demonstration
blamed on overcrowding.
Speaking on Report to the
People" over Radio Station
WWDC, Mr.. Camalier pointed
out that the District already has
a $550.000 appropriation to build
an annex on the present build
ing. He said, however, that
merely doubling it's capacity
would not solve the problem.
He proposed instead that the
building be sold for an estimated
$350,000 and the money added
to the $550,000 already available.
Then, he said, the Commission
ers should ask Congress for an
additional 100000 to put up an
entirely new building at Blue
Plains. estimated to cost $1.2
million.
