BY q Stor Stoff Correspondent

LA PLATA, Md, Sept. 49,
The Charles County commission
ers said yesterday that they
would ask their counsel to in
spect several applications for slot

he inspected only one.
Mr.. Mudd said that in his
opinion the application he did
examine, that OF a slot machine
operator, did not require nota-
riZatiOn.

Motor Scooters Bon
Lifted in CuIcuttu

Calcutta has lifted its ban on
motor scooters. Up to recently,
the Indian metropolis, where traf-
nc has been a growing problem,
was loath to add another form
to the many already existing.
But companies want to use the
scooter because of its advantage
over motor cars both in price and
maintenance. Individuals also
seek the higher performance
about 100 miles per gallon at
speeds up to Sc miles an hour.

Hauling Contract LET
To Save GSA $4,000

The administration has taken
another step in shifting Govern
ment work to private business.
A contract for hauling sup
plies to Government agencies in
the District area was announced
today.
The General Services Admins
tration said it would save $50 900
a year in its truck delivery sys-
tenn, operating between its ware
house at Franconia, Va, and
various agencies. 1t let the con-
tract to the Jacobs Transfer Co..
81 Pierce street NV.
William A. Miller, GSA's re-
gional director, said the Jacobs
company has agreed to do the
hauling for $3.50 a ton. He said
the GSA costs were running at
$7.62 a ton.
The contract is the outgrowth
OF suggestions made at a House
Government Operations subcom-
mittee hearing last June that
private truckers could do the
hauling cheaper than GSA.
Trucks and employees displaced
by this contract will be reas-
signed to hauling fuel. GSA said
it will study the granting Of
contracts for other hauling in
this region. which includes Vir-
ginia, Maryland and West Vir-
GINA, and in other regions.

Legion Urged 10 Push
Delinquency Drive

John w. Tramberg, recently
appointed Commissioner of So
cial Security. warned last night
that the efforts to combat jul
venile delinquency must not be
decreased. if and when the nov
city OF the crusade wears off.
He spoke at the American Lee
gion Child Welfare Conference
banquet in the Sheraton-Park
Hotel. The meeting. which ends
tomorrow, is being attended by
400 members from seven States
and the District.
Even though you are doing a
tremendous job" Mr.. Tramberg
told the Legion, "the juvenile
delinquency rate is still rising.
When the novelty wears off,
when defeats seem to over
shadow victories, will you still
be in there plugging away
against apathy, against indiffer-
ence, against false economies
that save dollars at the cost Of
human welfare?"
He said there is a need to i'm
prove the insurance protection
of children in cases where the
parents have died. Right now,
the speaker said, there are l
million children and 100000
widows receiving insurance BEN
ef1ts under the old-age security
insurance program. President
Eisenhower has recommended
these benefits be extended to 10
million more persons.
