Doctors Hail Tests
OF New Antibiotic


n WILLIAMSBURG, Va, Mar.
5,-A new antibiotic claimed to
have remarkable results in the
control Of streptococcus infec-
tons and resultant rheumatic
fever was reported on here yes
terday by three Medical College
of Virginia physicians.
The drug known as benzathine
penicillin, or "Bicillin," was given
to a group of As children. the
doctors said. and there were no
true cases of rheumatic recur-
renee.
The physicians-Dr. Carolyn
M. McCue, DR.. County D. Gibson.
jr., and DR.. Lillian D. Lindemann
told a meeting Of the Virginia
Pediatric Society the results Of
the test appeared significant
when compared to a recurrence
rate of 81 per cent among a
group of untreated children OBJ
served six years ago at the Rich
iiiond clinic.
Primary advantages of the
antibiotic as put forth by the
three physicians are: /. 1t ef-
fectively controls the beta strep-
tococcus and no resistant strains
OF the bacteria have emerged. 2.
The cost of the drug is less than
sulfonamides or oral penicillin.
8. There is a low rate of reaction
among patients.

Police Move TO End.
Outbreak Of Yokinqs
On Streets in CAPITAL

Police concentration in areas

Six Accused of Vagrancy.
OF the Is, six we're charged
with vagrancy after failure tc
give satisfactory answers as to
their means of support and their
reasons for being on the street
at a late hour. The method may
be on the drastic side, police ad-
init, but the new outbreak of
street yokings and muggings
aimed primarily at the aged and
at women, requires unusual pres

Newspaper publicity on the
police methods was deplored by
Police Chief Robert V. Murray.

Delegates Back
Auto Inspection
Bill, 1Of 10 9
Maryland Measure
Requires Cheekups
By Garages
by the Asseeieisd Press

ANNAPOLIS, Mar. 5.-Com-
pulsory inspection Of autos
and trucks once q year gained
approval Of half Of the Mary
land Legislature yesterday.
The House Of Delegates over
whelmingly passed 1919 q bill
restoring the garage inspections
which the State abandoned
nearly 20 years ago.
Those pushing the inspection
by garages this time are putting
faith in close State police super
vision to avoid complaints which
led to abandonment of the sys-
tenn after 10 years.
Opinions that it is unnecessary
and inefficient were voiced.
But subcommittee which rec
commended the inspection by pri-
vate garages instead of the State
as proposed originally this ses-
sion came back with statistics
supporting its practicability as a
safety promoter.
Statistics Stressed.
zone Of the most compelling
motives for the bill is statistics
from othter States which have
inspections" reported Delegate
Lee, Democrat, of Montgomery.
They leave no room for doubt.
There was sharp, abrupt
decline in deaths after the in
SpectionS were started"
The system calls for licensing
Of private garages by the State
police. The garages would buy
Stickers at 20 cents apiece and
would be permitted to charge the
customer $1.50 for making the
inspection.
The inspections would be made
during the months of November,
December and January starting
next year.
The Ways and Means Com
mittee was influenced in recon-
mending garage instead of direct
State inspections because of cost
and convenience to motorists. It
would cost millions for the State
to build the inspection stations
which therefore would be limited
in number.
Roads Probe Bill Emerges.
The only progress made by
controversial bills in the Senate
was the second emergence from
the Finance Committee of a
measure to set up a $4,000
probe of the State Roads Com
mission.
But when it reached the SEN
ate floor for a showdown, it
like four others likely to stir up
-debate-was put off until next
week.
Senator Redden, Democrat, of
Caroline requested the postpone
ment lin view of the late hour"
and the desire of the Senators
to avoid a lengthy fight on the
last working day of the week.
! Other postponed bills would
put annual real estate assess
ments in effect this year instead
OF next and would create an in
dependent Maryland turnpike
authority. The authority's first
project would be the Northeast
Expressway, paralleling U. S. 40
from Baltimore to the Pennsyl-
vania line and linking the State
highway system with the New

Commissioners Back
SickIes' Bill for
Special Service Tax

|. Proposed legislation to provide
special services in unincorporated
areas of Prince Georges by spe-
cial tax levies is on its way to
the General Assembly with the
county commissioners blessings.
Commissioner Herbert w.
Reichelt called the bill offered
by Democratic Delegate Carlton
H.. Sickles IAN excellent ap-
proach" to the problem of
financing such improvement as
streets, sidewalks, street lights
and trash and garbage collec-
tionS.
Mr.. Reichelt said he feels that
the county will have to establish
a bureau of sanitation and told
the Delegates that the bill may
be helpful in that respect.
Tldu LApldhCNs
The proposed act would au-
thorize the commissioners to
prescribe daries within
which special services are to be
provided without repeating pres
ent special improvement district
law. He explained. however, that
his proposal may make such dis
tricts unnecessary.
Mr.. Sickles asked for the
commissioners opinion on his
bill at Hyattsville yesterday and
said he would not introduce it
without their assent. The meas
ure does not provide for referen-
dunn.
Action was deferred on an
other suggested act which would
give the commissioners power to
appoint a metropolitan council
to advise the board on the fea-
sibility of proposed improve
ments in densely populated areas.
The recommendation was Of
fered by Harry A. Boswell and
Ralph w. Powers, representing
a committee created by the 1858
Legislature to study urban de-
velopment of the county.
Councils Makeup.
Mr.. Powers said the effect OF
the bill would be to eliminate the
present Metropolitan Advisory
Committee and shift its functions
to the new group.
AS proposed, the council would
have six members who would
serve four-year terms without
compensation. Two would come
from municipalities and two from
unincorporated sections. One
would be an Assemblyman and
one a county commissioner.
Authority would be given the
council to appoint a 50-member
committee of the future" to
assist the council in special
studies. It's membership would
be drawn from the county legis-
lative delegation. from the Mary
land National Capital Park and
Planning Commission, the Wash
ington Suburban Sanitary Com
mission, plus "a proper BALANCE
of business and civic interest"

Recreation Plan

On Youth Crime
-
Proposed Setup in
Fuirfox Is Praised
:. By Fitzgerald

Fairfax Commonwealth's At
torney Robert C. Fitzgerald yes
terday advocated the county's
proposed new full-time recrea-
tion setup as step in the right
direction to help control juvenile
delinquency in the county.
Mr.. Fitzgerald gave the recrea-
ton proposal his support in tes-
tifying before the second of .
series by a special county COM
mittee on juvenile delinquency.
An appropriation of $34,0 900 is
proposed in the county's tenta-
tive 1866 budget to operate
an all-year recreation program
with a full-time director. The
sum is double the amount in the
1954-5 budget. which provided
only a summer recreation pro-
gram.
IndOrSes Detention Home.
The Commonwealth attorney
also told the Juvenile Commit
tee he was Gin complete ac-
cord" with the proposed regional
juvenile detention home as now
recommended. He recalled that
in 1851 he expressed the opinion
that the Groveton police lookup
was not suitable for detention
Of juveniles, but declared the
county seemed to have no al
Tentative at the time. Arlington
recently remodeled its old jail
residence into temporary quar-
ters for detention of juveniles
and Fairfax now uses that in
stead of Groveton.
Mr.. Fitzgerald. City Attorney
v. Floyd Williams Of Alexandria.
City Attorney William Baskin
Of Falls Church and Common
wealth's Attorney William Has
san of Arlington conferred yes
terday on some of the legal
problems that have to be
Strengthened out before the new
regional detention home can be
built.
All four jurisdictions already
have agreed to put up their
share of $4,000 for the home.
Mr.. Fitzgerald said the attorneys
did not think it would take
long to work out the necessary
legal agreements.
Juvenile Bureau Urged.
1t. Grafton Wells, who is in
charge of the Fairfax County
Detective Bureau, told the COM
mittee separate juvenile bureau
with two detectives and woman
should be established. He said
he needed "a detectives, but has
only 8.
I'VE know where the trouble
spots on the county are" said
1t. Wells. I'VE just don't have
enough men to patrol them"
Sheriff John Taylor said he
thought it might be necessary
to set up some kind of temporary
juvenile detention quarters in
the old Fairfax Jail while the
new regional home is being built.
He said he didn't think it would
cost much money.
Attorney Emory w. Reisinger
suggested that the county might
establish an advisory committee
on juvenile problems to co-ordi-
nate youth activities.
The committee hearing will
continue next Friday with tes-
timony from school officials.
