Asks More Care
In Using Cards

Nearly one out of five teen.
ayers holding Social Security ac.
count number cards has not as
yet used their cards for employ
ment purposes, a spot survey
made by the Washington District
Social Security Office disclosed
this week.
David Platky, Field Represen-
tative for Montgomery County,
disclosed that an impromptu sur
vey made of seniors in a county
high school showed that young
sters had applied for account num-
ber cards without having any
need for them.
He pointed out that the card
holders would probably need their
cards in the future, but that the
chances were equally good that
the cards would be lost in the
meantime. The worker need only
apply for duplicate card to re-
ceive one, but this is urnecessar-
lily costly to the Social Security
Administration.
MIR. Plaky announced that it
would be best for all concerned if
an applicant is quite certain to
use it in covered EMPLOYMENT.

Farmers feel that the bever-
age industry needs to do much
more in it's own announced effort
to ban the "throw-away" bottle
practice and slogan. If the be-
verage industry cannot do the
job, the legislature may have to.
+ Governor McKeldin has ap-
pointed a Keep Maryla n d
Beautiful" committee that is
working on the solution to the
roadside debris problem. We
commend this move and ask our
State officers and county units to
cooperate with this group in it's
publicity program and it's legisla-
tive activities to clean up Mary

Large downtown businesses in
Washington were accused of be-
ing apathetic towards the park
ing problem by Russell E. Singer,
Executive Vice President of the
American Automobile Associa-
ton, this week.
The AAA official stated, "The
large downtown businesses are at
best apathetic. Since they have
parking lots of their own, or are
located near large off-street park
ing facilities, they have yet to
feel the pinch"
He told both large and small
downtown establishments that
the fringe parking program is
but a slight degree" of con-
structive action and points up
the need for shedding indiffer-
ence and apathy in favor of mold
ing the workable suggestions of
civic groups and businessmen in
to practical long range solution
to the parking problem"
AS guest speaker at the annual
meeting and banquet of the Ma
tional Capital Region, Antique
Automobile Club of America,
Singer voiced the AAA's opposi-
ton to the proposed transfer of
the federal portion of the Wash
ington-Baltimore Parkway to the
State of Maryland.
"The AAA organization, local
ly," Singer said, twill support a
bill introduced in the General AS
sembly that will give the Roads
Commission power to prohibit
trucks from using certain roads
in the state and also a bill that
specifically excludes truck travel
from the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Parkway"
According to the AAA official,
the Parkway built by the Bureau
of Public Roads is not adequate
ly constructed for truck travel.
The Jessop, Md, to Washington
portion has only an eight-inch-
thick pavement while the Mary
land built portion has a ten-inch

Litterbugs and "strewballs"
who make rural roadsides a pro-
blem by scattering trash and
refuse along them came in for
two critical comments in the
SENTINEL's mail this week.
William c. Hanson of Mount
Prospect FarmsS RID 3, Cal
thersburg, wrote a protest and a
novel idea of turning the tables
on the litterbugs.
1--WE at Prospect Farm" he
said, "are kept busy cleaning up
beer cans, whiskey bottles, boxes
and-of times-garbage which is
strewn along the roadway and
in the pasture along the front of
our farm.
II often wonder what these
careless folks would think of us
if we brought our trash cans and
garbage to town and dumped it
on their lawns. It's a poor rule
that doesn't work both ways"
The State Farm Bureau, Inc,
also sent the SENTINEL a copy
of resolution passed at its re-
cent Baltimore convention which
reads:
Keep Maryland Clean
The problem of debris-lined
highways, parks and recreation
areas across the State mounts.
Efforts to control such unsightIi-
ness and carelessness have been
valuable on a local community
level but will never be of long
range significance until and un-
less we approach the matter on
a State and national level.
Much of the trash that mars
the beauty of Maryland road
sides is idly tossed by travellers.
Enforcement of the existing
law, together with Statewide,
countrywide and nationwide edu-
cational campaigns would go a
long way in curing the ill. Avail

birds. Probably the most injurious
of all Maryland hawks; flies
silently and swiftly through the
woods and along hedgerows; much
more difficult to kill than the
larger soaring hawks that are con-
spicuous sitting in trees; powerful
enough to catch and kill rabbits.
To certain extent this species
and also the sharp-shinned are
beneficial in that they do kill
rodents, and catch the weaker
animals and birds, but the damage
they do to poultry and wildlife
greatly outweighs the good they do.
MANAGEMENT: There is no
management" in connection with
hawks, except where control is
necessary to protect game, non-
game and domestic birds and some
mammals from excessive killing;
they are more injurious than bene-
fetal. They should be controlled
but not exterminated.
VALUE: While injurious to wild
life they do have some beneficial
value in destroying injurious rats
and mice, and an esthetic value.

Nearly 100 teenagers attended
the second annual Montgomery
County Teenage Traffic Confer
ence recently at the County
Office building in Rockville.
With representatives from all
high schools, parochial and pri-
vate schools they came up with
Is resolutions.
At the beginning of the pro.
gram, before the teenage Off
GERS took over, w. L. Robinson,
chairman, Montgomery County
Safety Board, presided.
J. Grahame Walker, president,
Montgomery County Council, ad.
dressed the youngsters on the
subject of "Our Future Leaders.
Following a safety film, "Look
Who's Driving" Frank P. Low
rey, director of Field Service,
Inter-Industry Highway Safety
Committee, spoke on "You Are
the Key.
The delegates then split up
into eight groups and with a con-
sultant, discussed predetermined
topics, and came up with one or
more resolutions on each subject.
The recommendations included
more safety education in schools,
Montgomery County sentinel., 1955-01-27

expanding and improved, with
accredited driver education in
each high school. The program
to be financed by a larger fee
for learners permits. Annual
inspection of vehicles, chemical
test legislation, stricter enforce
ment of liquor law after it de-
veloped that the Laws of Mary
land prohibit the sale or the Civ
ing of alcoholic beverages to
any person under the age of 21
years of age in Montgomery
County.
9th er recommendations in
cluded a law to prohibit hitch
hiking while standing in the
travel portion of the highway, an
effort to obtain a drag strip, bi-
cycle safety and more bicycle
rodeos. They also urged a Traf-
fic Safety Week, and that Off
GERS of the Teenage Council be
made members of the Montgom-
cry County Safety Board.
At the afternoon session when
these resolutions were discussed
and passed, Robert Shapley,

ed in all. This compares to 1900
tested last year, an increase of
over 1000.
OF this number 131, or about
1.5%o, had sufficient sugar in
their urines to make the possibili-
ty of the existence of diabetes
very high. However, no case of
diabetes would be diagnosed from
single examination. These peo-

Only 100 "dreypaks" were re-
turned for diabetes testing of the
$4,000 distributed. Why did 49,
600 people request "dreypaks'
and not use them? Was the meal
suggested on the "dreypak" form
too heavy? Did people forget?
Did they run out of stamps?

Anti-Diabetes Drive would very
much like answers to these ques-
tions. Please send your idea to

Congratulations to our neigh
boring community, Rockville!
We in Wheaton and Glenmont
are proud of their "All-America
Award.
In last weeks SENTINEL
there was a public opinion sampl-
ing of the women of Rockville to
gain their reactions to the plan
for a Rockville Civic Center as
proposed by the Mayor and
Council.
Every woman interviewed
stressed the need for more rec
reational facilities, public swim
ming pools, skating Kinks, play
grounds, etc.
Although we are not an incor-
porated town, the problems we
face are no different than those
of the county seat.
1 wish someone would do a
public opinion poll in this area.
They would find that the
answers given by the Rockville
women are similar to what is
heard down this end at every
type of meeting place. At the
civic associations, at the PTAs,
the Boy and Girl Scouts, there
is just this same discussion, with
one great addition, "Why aren't
there any plans for just few
trees or shrubs for the Wheaton
commercial centers?"
wonder if the businessmen
of Wheaton are aware that a few
shade trees would go a long way
toward bringing many more Gus
toners in the heat of the sum-
mer to Wheaton?
More people voice dissatisfac-
ton over the lack of any green.
cry for a new business area
than any other complaint.
Project, "a Tree Grows in
Wheaton" will surely take hold.
This porject needn't be con-
fined to the businessmen.
Let's all get behind this idea.
Any suggestions? Please let
me know.
Don't forget the big meeting
jointly sponsored by the Hi-View
and North Kensington Citizens
Associations on Thursday, jan
uary 27, 8 pm. at the Wheaton
Recreation Center to air pro-
posals for the acquisition of land
suitable for recreation center.
This will be discussed with
Sidney M. Oliver, Commits
sioner on the Park and Planning
Commission, who will speak at
the gathering.
Philip Marcus of the Allied
Civic Group will chair the meet
ing.
All of the parents involved
should make it a date so that
Mr.. Oliver will realize how
really serious everyone is about
matter.
