Membership:
AS Post Commander, l wish to
make a plea to all of Legionaires.
Please bring or send in your 1855
dues as early as you possibly can.
We lead the 10th District in 1855
membership at the present time.
We must not only reach one hun
dred per cent of the 1854 men,
bership, but we must exceed that
figure to get back up to our all
time high. Bring in new members
by selling Legionism and the idea
that through strength of member
ship we can fight communism,
stress the importance of our work
in child welfare, and the rehabili-
tation of our sick and hospitalized
veterans.

Plan to attend the next regular

your Legionaires haven't been out
to visit your home since we ac-
quired the property, and made the
beautiful renovations downstairs.
Each one of you own as much of
this home as l do. Come out and
work with me on our many pro-
jects, and give us your sugges.
tions on how we might better our

Alexandra Adopts
One e-Way Street Plan

A new system Of one-way
streets recommended by the
Alexandria traffic board was
adopted by the city council last
night. It will take effect as soon
as signs and traffic lights can be
installed.
The plan establishes 10 one
way streets in the business area.
1t is principally the idea of
Traffic Director Kenneth w.
Smith.
Before adopting the plan, the
city council deleted Patrick, Hen
ry and Franklin streets from the
proposed one-way system on a
trial basis Streets that become
one way are:
East-bound-Prince street. between
Daingerfeld road and Royal street:
queen street between Royal and West
streets; Montgomery street between
Henry and Royal streets.
West-bound-Cameron street. between
street between Henry and Royal Streets;
streets.
South h-bound-Columbus street be-
tween Franklin and Powhatan streets;
King street; Dain9erfield road between
King and Prince street.
North-bound-St. Asaph street be-
tween First and Second streets.

it Co. literally were riding on air
today as the firm put Is new
buses on its lines between nearby
Virginia and Washington.
The new buses, produced by
General Motors. are equipped
with the air-suspension riding
system replacing conventional
springs. About 80 local Govern
ment officials. police and report
erS from Virginia and Washing
ton were given a preview of the
new buses yesterday.
It took General Motors IL

16 buses are on order.
Improved riding comfort is the
principal advantage, said A. B.

cation. The new buses, deiv-
cred to Alexandria. cost A. B. &
w. $20,500 each. -.

Storm Drainage Refund
Awaits Final Approval

A Hyattsville (Md0 City
Council request to the Wash
ington Suburban Sanitary Com
mission for a refund on a, city
allocation used TO help install a
storm drainage project in West
Hyattsville now awaits final ap-
proval Of the commission legal
department.
Councilmen last night were
told in a letter from the sanitary
commission that the utility has
agreed to return some Of the
city's contribution. The project
was completed last summer.
The city had offered to pay
$35, 900 of the estimated $42, 900
total cost. The commission,
however, reported the final bill
was only $38.515. Councilmen
have requested q refund of Sc. 600.
In another letter to the coun-
Gil, the sanitary commission an
nounced it has approved plans
for the installation of storm
drainage submitted by Banks &
Lee, developers. The new de-
velopment itself lie soutside the
city limits but Hyattsville Mayor
Jesse Baggett said the city must
approve the plans since the
drainage project will directly
affect a city thoroughfare-

A letter from Darlene Harnack,
Is, of 5715 Thirty-ninth avenue,
thanking the city for the roped
off snow slide last week. on Thir-

Alexandra Council
To Act on $4,000
Budget Cut Proposal

Three members Of the Alex
andria City Council appointed to
trim the budget by $279 900 last
night presented a long list of
proposed reductions to be acted
on at regular council meeting
next week.
The reduction was ordered by
the city council to provide an
average Is per cent cut in the
1854 real estate assessment.
Members who prepared the
proposed cuts were Vice Mayor
Leroy S. Bendheim, James M.
Duncan, jr.. and David S. Had
dock. They conferred with City
Manager Ira S. Willard in ar
irving at final figures.
Actually the reductions come
to $225.249 They propose that
the remaining $53.751 be made
UP from the following sources:
Trash and garbage collection
charges to business establish
ments, sale of city-owned real
estate. placing delinquent taxes
and miscellaneous accounts in
hands of attorneys for collection
and adjustment of the amount
paid by the Alexandria Redevel-
opment and Housing Authority
to the city in lieu of taxes.
The proposed adjustment also
makes available for the next six
months an additional $35 900 for
hospital care of INDECENT pa
tents. The Welfare Department
spent practically all of the years
$4,000 appropriation during the
first six months, and the Com
munity Welfare Council last
week warned the city council
that practically no funds were
left for INDECENT hospital care.
Mayor Marshall j. Beverley
praised the committees work.
A large delegation of building
contractors represented by At
torney Andrew w. Clarke. pro-
tested a new policy in the COL
lection of their business license
taxes. In the past they were ac-
customed to paying a business
license tax based on gross re-
ceipts within the city. The city
this year sought to charge the
contractors a business license
fee on their total gross receipts.

Group Hits Juvenile Information Ban

quired to make public arrest
records Of children. It suggested
regulations to insure that COM
plants disclose no names of
alleged juvenile offenders and
to require that juveniles be
booked not at the precinct but
only at Juvenile Squad head
quarters.
It proposed that the Corpora
ton Counsel be asked to deter
mine whether the Commission
ers. without a change Of law,
could order that information
identifying individual children
be withheld from public inspec-
ton.
The proposed order also would
specify that Juvenile Court in
formation on disposition Of in
dividual cases be kept confiden-
tial within the Juvenile Squad.
II the Corporation Counsel finds
legal objections to such an or
der. the committee recommended
that he be asked to draft legis-
lation to make it possible. The
report contained:
As soon as such an order has
become effective. the committee
recommends that the juvenile
Court make generally available
to the Juvenile Squad informa-
ton as to the disposition of Ju-
venile Court cases. In order to
protect the confidential nature
Of this information, it should be
rigidly confined to the Juvenile
Squad. The dangers of a breach
of confidence would be vastly IN
creased if the information were
available to all 1000 members of
the force"
Meeting in advance any OBJ
lection that giving the police
this information would require
additional labor by the court, the
committee noted that Juvenile
Squad officers visit the court
daily and could pick up the in
formation from the clerks Office
without great Inconvenience to
either police or the court.
The committee also recon-
mended that the Welfare De-
partment and the National
Training School for Boys notify
the Juvenile Squad when delin-
Quent children are released, pro-
vided that the Juvenile Squad
also keep this information con-
fidential. Emphasizing the i'm
portance of restricted use of the
information 1t proposes should
be made available to the Juve-
nile Squad. the committee stated:
1T is not the purpose of the
plan to enable the Juvenile
Squad when working on a bicycle
theft to question every child
ever apprehended for a bicycle
theft. 1t is to be used only to
locate a child who has demon
strated a distinctive pattern in
the commission of his offenses
and only to solve a crime evi-
dencing that particular pattern.
Tomorrow: Juvenile Court
and the Welfare Department.

Report Indicates
Committees Thinking

These excerpts from the COM
mittee's report show the, COM
mittee's thinking on present and
proposed relationships between
police and Juvenile Court:
The committee is concerned
with the lack of cooperation
among the various agencies
working with delinquent chill
dren. Sharp lines are drawn at
present between the functions
Of these agencies. The Juvenile
Squad. for example, directs its
activities primarily to the ap-
prehension of the wrongdoer.
The Juvenile Court then works
with the child, seemingly in a
vacuum, without the benefit of
the background which might be
provided by the Juvenile Squad
and without consulting the We'll
fare Department as to the
facilities available for the treat
ment of the child. -.
"The result of such compart-
mentation is harmful to the
children concerned, wasteful of
public funds and frustrating to
the members of the agencies
stats.
The Juvenile Squad =. inves-
tigates the circumstances Of the
offenses committed by the chill
dren which it apprehends: in
doing so it necessarily acquires
some information and a general
impression about the background
Of each child. The complaint
sent to the Juvenile Court, how
ever, contains a mere two or
three sentence description of
the offense.
The Department Of Social
Work Of the Juvenile Court then
undertakes a social history of
the child without consulting the
police officers who have dealt
with the child and his family.
Such consultation would prob
ably not be useful in every case
but the committee believes that
an atmosphere Of liaison between
tho two agencies would be Of
value in enough cases to war
