Montgomery Police Praised
At Hearings onPoy Rise Bid

Montgomery County police
seeking to raise their wage scale
to the Metropolitan police level
got strong support and praise
last night in the second of three
public hearings on the county's
proposed SIT million operating
budget.
Support also was registered
last night for a 1O-fold increase
in the proposed $7,305 for civil
defense.
The county council at 8 pm
Monday will hold hearings on all
departmental budgets except
schools. health, safety and well
fare.
The council last night heard
the Allied Civic Group of Silver
Spring and the County Civic
Federation urge adoption of the
recommendations of Public Safe
ty Director Arthur E. Miller and
the County Police Association
for wage scale equal to that
OF the District policemen.
The request would boost the
starting pay of police from
$500 to $4,000 and would pro-
vide average annual increases
of $671 a man.
The pay raise would cost the
county an additional $4,000
a year for the present 165-man
force. according to Washington
I. Cleveland. of the County Safe
ty Board The board supported
the pay boost for policemen
and suggested consideration be
given the associations request.
Mr.. Cleveland pointed out that
while the police association was
asking for the same pay District
police receive they were willing
to work a six-day week instead
of the f1ve-day week now in
effect in Washington.
James r. Miller of the County
/ Taxpayers Inc, suggested q
compromise. He urged the
council to grant $400 a year
increase to policemen instead Of
the $500 anticipated by former
Acting County Manager Jeptha
j. Carroll.
Mr.. Miller suggested the addi-
tional funds be raised by not
allowing the recommended eight
man increase in the police force
At the same time. the Rock
vile attorney urged the council
take steps to get more State
police assigned to the county to
handle non-injury accidents.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1954-06-12

/ The managers recommends
tions include some $137, 900
for adjustment of salaries of
county employees. Any police
raise would depend on the rec
ommendation of the County Per-
sonnet Board, which a. few
months ago refused to propose
a raise. e
Maj. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey,
u. S. A.. urged the council to
appropriate the full $78,6lO for
civil defense recommended by
the County Civil Defense Asso-
citation.
I'VE have no civil defense as
such, and we won't have until
the need is recognized by every
one from the council down to
the last citizen" Gen. Hershey
said.
The civil defense program pro-
posed by the association is worth
less unless a staff is provided
for by the council, Gen. Hershey
said. The managers proposal
carries no staff provisions.
Eldon Sweeney of the County
Council of Parent Teacher As
sociations also urged the council
to provide for the full budget
asked by the Civil Defense As
ISOLATION.
Strong support was registered
for a proposed $21 900 appropri-
alton to establish a preventive
pSychiatric clinic team to work
with children by the Mental Hy-
giene Society and other county
health groups.
Henry Redkey, of the PTA
council, in a series of illustrated
presentations, took to task the
acting managers recommended
ton that three nurses be cut off
the request for secondary schools
and four off the elementary
schools.
Mr.. Redkey urged that the
full $42,986 cut from the health
officers budget requests for nurs-
ing services be restored.
The council also heard Law
renee M. Fisher, a Democratic
candidate for seat on the coun-
Gil, urge that the. present bud
getting procedure be changed.
Mr.. Fisher suggested that de-
partment heads be given con-
troll over the priority of budget
item requests, with the manager
having only authority to recon-
mend a total sum for each de-
partment.

| used at the Page School IN Ar
lington. One parent wrote: The
progressive educator and his
henchman who advocate and
nurture the narrative report are
fully aware that the alphabeti-
cal report card is the first link
in the chain of events which will
abolish the Socialistic and COM
munistic practices in the school
system"
Relating the substitution Of
narrative reports for Abe
cards to communism is traced to
the abolition of report cards
when the Bolsheviks took over
in Russia. 1t might be added
that, at that time, the pupils
took to issuing orders to teachers
and school officials in the name
of Karl Marx.
Questionnaires to Parents.
The Page School sent out
missionaries about its report-
ing by narrative and conference.
Some favoring the A-B-C report
card said they did not state their
preference because it was not
called for. The QUESTIONABLE did
carry an invitation for "other
comments.
About $50 missionaries were
sent out. The announced re-
suits: Number of replies, 1853;
approval of the narrative-con-
ference reporting, ia; prefer
ence stated for the A-B-C meth
cd, 38; questionable, /.
The school system wants the
whole question settled. While it
says it is not resigning respon-
sibility for reporting. it is telling
the school principals that par
ents' feelings as well as profess
sional standards must be con-
sidered. If the systems recon-
mended by the school STATS are
not approved by parents in suf-
f1cient numbers, the stats are
directed to come up with a
recommendation in which the
parents will concur.
Montgomery County (Md.),
elementary schools use either
the A-B-C report or the nara
tive or descriptive report, each
coupled with the conference.
The school system has been
! studying the whole question and
obtaining recommendations from
the various schools and the school
principals advisory committees.
It is expected questions will be
resolved before the next school
year begins. It was also said
that it is doubtful that any uni
form system will be set up but
that the reports would be adj
/ juSted to the needs of the in
dividual schools and commun-
tiles.
Whatever the report is that
parents receive, the schools keep
an Abe grading on every
student III their permanent
records.

A real ruckus developed over

introduced, abandoning grading
on the basis of Outstanding. Sat.

Substituted was a system rating

subjects and personal attributes.
BOunces into Legislature.
One critic said the new system
made fools of our children and
of U.S." Another called it social
ism. The A-B-C card proponents
carried the fight to the State
Legislature.
Rows over reporting have oc-
CURED elsewhere.
In some places, the reports are
no longer cards but compare
lively large documents, which
not only give ratings on scho-
lastic subjects, but also cover
such things as effort, regard for
the rights and property of 9TH
erS, reliability, cooperation,
courtesy, cheerful obedience,
practice of health and safety
rules. Character and citizenship
are among the subjects found
on some cards.
The idea of failure appears
to be played down on some re-
ports, and growth or progress
emphasized. A report used in
the lower grades of Passaic, N. j..
is labeled "A Record of Your
Child's Growth" 1t is scored by

State Championship Races to
Take Place at RehObOth
Saturday
STRONG COMPETITION

Rain cut short the two-day
