Church Won't Let
Tried Pastor Quit

MILWAUKEE,, Oct. % %
A small town Lutheran congre-
CATION refused last night to ac-
cept the resignation OF the Rev,
John Gerberding. who faces re-
investigation even though found
innocent of heresy charges by q
synod trial board.
The refusal. by members OF
Holy Cross Lutheran Church,
was voted in a 55-40 secret ball
lot taken after the 33-year-old
pastor told the congregation:
IT am out Of harmony with the
synod" and reminded that the
church council had accepted his
resignation previously.
After the ballot was announced
Pastor Gerberding said. Il had
not anticipated this result" He
said he would have no comment.
Pastor Gerberding was found
innocent of heresy charges by a
trial board of the Northwest Sy-
nod of the United Lutheran
Church. Shortly afterward the
Wisconsin Conference of Luz
theran Pastors called for re-
newed investigation and new
trial on the grounds of new evil
dence and irregularities"

Soviet Influence Greet

BUCHAREST. Romania. Oct.
28.-Travel notes from Bu-
charest:
A number Of simple things are
available in Bucharest which one
can't ind in Moscow. A city tele-
phone directory, for instance. In
the two years was in Moscow !
never saw q telephone directory.
Here the one in my hotel room
Is complete with dialing instruc-
lions and q section listing every
thing from the crematory to the
sports stadiums.
Soviet influence Is great in
Romania. This month is ''Ro-
i1aanian- Soviet friendship month"
and most of the movie houses are
putting on q Soviet film festival.
Others are showing Polish and
Czechoslovak films. But no West
ern pictures. Posters in down.
town Bucharest advertise Pravda,
Izyestia and other Soviet news
papers and magazines.
Pastries Come High
Romanians love rich pastries,
topped with creams and choco-
late. Bit and little shops sell
these, but they are expensive. A
single portion Of a cream-topped
cake in q hotel restaurant cost
nearly q dollar at the unrealistic
monetary exchange rate.
There is very little motor
traffic In Bucharest, a city of
is million. Perhaps it's just as
well. for nearly all the main
streets are torn up for repair.
Authorities are employing more
and more women in manual
labor. and one sees scores Of
them In the pick-and-shovel
crews.
Although Romanians generally
look pretty wen dressed by East
ern European standards land In
some respects smarter than the
people Of MoScow-one can see
barefoot people in Bucharest.

The Woman in Red

Senator Bridges conjured up an intri-
guing picture with his comment that ''the
whole Russian assembly could walk in some
day and take seats" in the Senate chamber.
AS an idea, it is perhaps worth a second
thought-even though it was prompted by
a complaint that access to the sanctuary of
''the worlds greatest deliberative body" al
ready is too easily available. 1t is not re-
called, for example, that either branch OF
the Supreme Soviet ever has been described
as disorderly or undigniied legislative as
Sembly. In fact, proceedings seem to be
almost machine-like in their enlightened
unanimity in the parliamentary halls Of
Mother Russia. A visit might be interesting.
Indeed, while Senator Bridges quite
properly was directing his concern only to
the Senate side Of the Capitol, the my
sterious woman in red" was making her
unscheduled appearance In the well Of the
House chamber-and departing temporarily
unidentified and unmolested. One wonders,
incidentally, how she would have Jared in

bus and streetcar operators has long been
overdue In all fairness. 1t must be pointed
out that the company's reluctance in the
past to hire Negroes for these jobs was not
prompted by racial bias. II was the result
OF recurrent threats of some of the utilitys
employees to strike II operating jobs were
thrown open to all qualified applicants, re-

have promised to cooperate in making the

ment for the sort OF unwise and econoni-
ically costly discrimination that has pre-
vailed for 80 many years at Capital Transit.

David Lawrence recently suggested
that the Eisenhower administration

enactment Of an FEPC bill. Such
bill would drastically curtail the right

The report in The Star. January Z.
as to the plans of Representative Nc
MILAN with respect TO District traflic
conditions Is not very encouraging.
In the first place. he seems to have
no concern whatever with the problems
Of the general public. His plan to look
INTO the traf1ic situation at the Union
Station is going to focus on taxi OPP
erations.D primarily q matter Of conn
peting companies, while the big prob
lem is to make it possible for the public
TO md its way around the plaza and
approach the terminal without route
map and . divining rod.
His second point relates to what he
considers an excessive number Of NO
Parking" signs in the downtown area:
and the reason for this study. as you
might guess. is because Congressman
have had to use taxis, streetcars and
buses. N.Y. N.Y. Not q word of sympathy
for the general public that has far more
business IN the downtown area and is
frequently exasperated by the number
Of otherwise available spaces marked
Reserved for Members Of Congress"
Personally, doubt II congressman
really have much difhculty in parking
where official business requires it. After
reading his third point. the alleged ex-
cessive tagging Of diplomatic and con-
gressional cars, had to sit down and
weep. In the first place. most District
Of Columbia policemen are too afraid
Of congressional reprisals to tag con-
gressional car; and in the second place,
why shouldn't Congressman and diplo-
mats obey traffic rules like the rest Of
us?
hope Mr. McNIillan's fellow commit
tee members will unfocus some of his
plans and give more attention to the
general traffic situation and the general
public interest. Personally ! think they
had better leave it to the District au-
thorities.

That the plan Is well worth while has
been proved on New York,s Hutchinson
River Parkway. in Westchester County. An
experimental period with the outer-edge
lines cut accidents approximately in half,
according to the New York Times. Connec-
ticut, after similarly encouraging test, has
decided to paint border lines along the
