the press and freedom Of re-
!ligion. The declaration was in
corporated into the Virginia con-
stitution. believed to have been
drawn up by Mason. His first
draft Of the declaration is in the
State Library in Richmond. His
draft of the constitution has
been lost. Years later Thomas
Jefferson wrote:
THE fact is unquestionable
that the bill of rights and the
constitution of Virginia were
drawn originally by George
Mason. one of our really great
men, and Of the first order of
greatness.
Mason was a delegate to the
Federal Constitutional Conven-
ton of 1887 in Philadelphia. He
contributed much to the result
ing document but in the end
refused to sign it. His principal
objection, as he wrote to Jeffer-
son, was the compromise be-
tween the Eastern and two
Southern States. to permit the
latter to continue the importa-
ton OF. slaves for 20-odd years,
a more favorite object with
them than the liberty and hap
piness Of the people"
1t was his opposition to the
adoption of the Constitution that
has caused one Of he greatest
American constitutionalists. who
contributed so much to our basic
law. to become the forgotten, or
the neglected. man among the
founding fathers in popular
history.
That is one Of the interesting
things in the short course which
tourists are getting at Williams
burg. Many are hearing for the
first time about George Mason.

WILLIAMSBURG, Va. June
11.-This restored Colonial capi-
tai has become a unique Ameri-
can educational institution.
The attendance has surpassed
anything hoped for 80 years ago
when John D. Rockefeller. jr.,
decided to recapture the 18th
century elegance which made
Virginia one of the proudest of
the colonies.
Last year more than 600,0 900
tourists took the short course
in the Colonial history of Vir-
Iginia by visiting the buildings
and listening to lectures of the
|hostesses. Month by month. this
years attendance is exceeding
the 1854 records.
The visitors are discovering
this semester that the major
course in THE Prelude to Free
DOM" the period between May
is and July 4. 1776. In that
period, the Virginia convention
at Williamsburg instructed its
delegates in the Continental
Congress at Philadelphia to vote
for independence, then adopted
a constitution for the new State.
and elected a governor. Patrick
Henry.
And they are learning some
thing about the man who might
be termed the forgotten found
ing father, George Mason.
Tomorrow is the 189th ami
versary of the adoption of the
Virginia constitution with its
famous bill of rights, which was
written by George Mason. The
anniversary will be observed here
and at Gunston Hall, his home
on the Potomac just below Mount
Vernon. where Secretary of De-
fense Wilson will speak.
Named a delegate to the 1776
convention by the Fairfax
County Court, George Mason ar

had decided that Virginia's votes
would be for separation. He was

House Inquiry
BY the Associated Press


The House Commerce Commit
tee will make a thorough inves-

Itions about the polio vaccine be-
fore acting on legislation deal
ing with the program, Chair
man Priest said yesterday.
In telling a reporter about the
committees stop. look and lis.
ten" approach when it resume:
open hearings June 81. Mr.. Priest
said there are several things
that need to be cleared up be-
fore we can know whether we
want to go into a government
sponsored incubation program.
The committee held hearings
several weeks ago on variou:
proposals, including a request by
President Eisenhower for $2S
million to pay for vaccine fol-
children whose families cannot
afford it. Before the group also
is a proposal by Mr.. Priest tc
give the Secretary of Health
stronger control over the testing
and distribution of serums anc
vaccines.
"White Paper" Faces Probe
Mr.. Priest said the commit.
tee will go first into "the scien.
tif1c aspects" of the vaccine
including the so-called white
paper" issued this week by Sur.
geon Gen. Leonard Scheele.
He said the group also will
look into the reported differ
Iences between DR.. Scheele anc
Basil O'Conor, president of the
National Foundation for Infan.
tile Paralysis, and between DR.
Scheele and DR.. Jonas Salk, who
developed the vaccine.
Mr.. Priest said he was certain
DR.. Scheele would be recalled
to testify. He said he expected
DR.. Salk also to be questioned
The Senate Labor and Public
Welfare Committee also will hole
two days of hearings next week
on the polio vaccine. The exact
days have not been set.
Earlier today, DR.. Salk com
mended DR.. Scheele and calico
for patience while a Public
Health Service reorganization
takes effect.
/ His statement appeared de-
signed to play down reports Of
differences between himself ano
the government over handling
of the vaccination program.
! The scientists comments were
released here by a spokesman fol-
the University of Pittsburgh
where DR.. Salk developed the
vaccine. 1t was his first comment
since the Health Service released
yesterday its voluminous white
paper"
Salk Praises Scheele
"The Public Health Service
has taken concrete steps to solve
vaccine production and testing
problems" DR.. Salk said. Cd
Scheele should be commended
for tnis action.
1--WE must now allow time fol
the reorganization of the Public
Health Service to take place and
for its influence to be felt.
"All of us who are working or
the vaccine have one objective
to eliminate the threat OF
poliomyelitis from our lives and
the lives of our children.
| AS for the white paper" DR.
Salk said he and other govern
ment advisers were shown a ten
tative draft Wednesday. He said
ION the basis of our discussion
that draft was to be revised"

fists have not yet seen the final

For several years the Garden

plants growing. The flower ar
engagements by all members of the
club would be either in a protect
ed part of the Roanoke Gardens,
or in the home of Mrs. Bell, chair

social feature will be a garden

anywhere who could do the job
done by this woman who never
went to college, and who worked
for $50 month six months in a
year. She lived with her parents
some two miles distant from the
school and walked to and from
work. She spent an awful lot of
time working on church and
school entertainments, for these
were the days when the public
school ranged along with the
church and was the heart and soul
of the community, commanding
the support and interest of every
person.
There are so many interesting
and helpful things that could be
written about two years of school
ing under this great woman, were
there time now to write them.
There are countless tributes that
could be paid to her life and work
as a mother, wife, teacher, COM

knew her knows all these things
already, and it is great to be able
to join in this little remembrance
of life that has left so many
people and the world so much bet
