Jail Annex Cosl
Under Study

The Prince Georges County
Commissioners yesterday decided
to see If an addition to the
county jail at Upper Marlboro
can be constructed for less thar
the 100000 set aside for it.
Two Commissioners, Herbert
w. Reichelt and A. Preston Per.
rie, said they are not convinced
an adequate addition cannot be
built for less than $500, 900.
With an eye on the county's
tax funds, sthe commissioners
decided at Upper Marlboro tc
meet with architects to study
possible cost reductions, They
also want legal ruling as to
whether any money left over
from the $500. 900. to be raised
by a bond issue, could be used
for other purposes.
The bonds have been sold and
the architectural firm of Walton
g. Madden is working on final
plans.
The decision to reconsider
plans for the jail was reached
after a discussion of costs in
Ivolved. This was touched of
when County Attorney William
III. Kahler asked for a $1,000
appropriation for test borings
on the ground for the proposed
addition.
The Jail was built in 1927 to
house 48 prisoners. but it fire.

Mr.. Keneipp urged parents to
teach their children the impor-
tance Of traffic signals, safety
rules and safety patrols.
When your child walks to
school," he asked docs he take
the safest route? Quite often
there is one best route, very well
protected by traffic policemen,
school safety patrols and traffic
signs or signals. Help your child
select the safest route"
Mr.. Keneipp asked parents to
set their children a good exam
tple. They are asked to cross
streets only at intersections, to
wait for the traffic signal, to look
both ways and before crossing to
watch out for turning traffic.
I'm other words" he said
"don't do anything in traffic that

|Urqed to Prevent Floods

thinking by saying. There is
just too much or too little water
at the wrong time
Patrick said the dams would
help the economy of this area in
four ways. by:
I. Reducing or eliminating
flood damage.
2. Sustaining or increasing in
Idustrial development of the
region.
5. Improving the security Of
the population.
4. Raising the standards Of
living.
Dam Curtailed Flood
He noted that the Savage Riv-
Ter Dam, located on a tributary
is the only dam in existence on
the Upper Potomac. He pointed
|out that during the high water
caused by the torrential rains
of Hurricane Diane, the dam
held back Ia billion gallons Of
water.
Estimating that every billion
gallons Of water means a rise oi
8 of a foot in the level OF
the Potomac, Patrick estimated
the dam prevented the river
from rising another foot during
the recent flood.
He also noted that the average
annual mud load of the Potomac
at Washington is 11a million
tons. This, he said. would be
reduced because the proposed
dams would also aid in soil con-
IServation.

The child's 3-year-old play
mate escaped with scratches.
suffered either from the tram
brushing past him or in q fall.
The dead boy was David
Clagett, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Walter Clagett, 7l48 Chestnut
street NV. His companion.
Paul C. Lautrup of the same
address, was released after
treatment at Children's Hospital.
Fence Torn Down
The survivors, mother, Mrs.
Charles Lautrup, said she
thought Paul must have tum-
bled to the ground getting away
from the freight.
Mrs. Lautrup said the chill
dren wandered onto the tracks
from their back yard. The fence
separating the yard from the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad
tracks was torn down some time
ago, she said.
Alexander Keller, 48. another
resident of the Chestnut street
address. said he spotted Paul
near the tracks just as the
train passed at 6:25 pm.
He ran to the boy, gave him
q spank to send him toward
the house. and accompanied him
there.
Didn't See Dead Boy
Then, said Mr.. Keller, "I
happened to think he was play
ing with David. II didn't even
see him the first time went out.
I went back and found him. He
was on the ground alongside the
tracks"
The scene was just south Of the
railroad bridge over Piney
Branch road.
Police said the New York
bound freight. with Emmett j..
Keegan, 81, Philadelphia, at the
controls, was running about 55I
miles per hour.
A Casualty Hospital doctor

Both boys fathers, out of
work because of illness, were
home at the time of the acci-
dent. So was Mrs. Lautrup.
Mrs. Clagett was at work in a
Silver Spring store.
The Lautrups also have
daughter, Judy, 4. The Clagetts
have three other children, none
ct home.
Mrs. Clagett said David called
himself "Davy Crockett" She
had his birthday presents hid
den in their apartment yester-
day when he tagged along out

School Opening Prompts
Sofety PIeo by Keneipp

Traffic Director George e.
Keneipp yesterday emphasized
safety rules both for motorists
and parents to save the lives Of
youngsters who will return to
school on Monday.
I'VE don't bring them up to
run them down, Mr.. Keneipp
said.
Yet. he added. last year in the
District nine children under Is
years Of age were killed and
1852 others in the same age
group were injured.
Mr.. Keneipp said the only mis-
takes these youngsters made. il
any. were the result Of their
childishness or lack Of good
judgment.
Task for Everyone
The traffic director stressed
that traffic and school officials
are constantly alert to the prob
lem Of traffic and child accidents
and are receiving splendid sup
port from public spirited organi-
cations like the Commissioners
Traffic Advisory Board. the Met
ropolitan Area TRAFFIC Council
and the automobile clubs. How.
ever, Mr.. Keneipp added, they
cannot do the whole job ano
must depend upon every member
of a community.
Mr.. Keneipp aimed his appeal
particularly at motorists = and
parents. He said:
Child safety is important to
the motorist who shudders at the
thought of hurting a youngster
1t is important to remember that
one thoughtless mistake-so easy
lat this age--and he may be in
jured or killed.
Motorists should remember
that children easily forget and
may menace their. own lives by
taking chances in traffie. It il
