have a speaking engagement or
other official duty to perform
after regular working hours.
Defending the integrity of
county employees, Mr.. Butts
points to the assessor who lives
in Damascus, drives in his pri-
vate car to Rockville daily to
pick up his county car, drives
back to Damascus where he does
his assessing, then returns to
Rockville in the evening, drops
the county car, and drives home
in his private vehicle. Mr.. Butts
feels that this costs the county
more than if the assessor were
allowed to take his county car
home.
Eight county cars are unassign-
ed and may be borrowed from
the car pool. Mr.. Stephens says
these are never taken home, as
far as he knows.
The Police Department oper-
ates GA cars. The superintendent,
station captains, inspector, detec-
tives, patrol co-ordinators, and
Juvenile Court officers are as
signed cars, which they may take
home at night.
Defending another challenged
car pool practice, Mr.. Stephens
says that the high test gasoline
used in all county cars gives
better mileage, better perform
ance and quicker starts" The
Chevrolet owners manual recon-
mends either high test or regular
fuel. A Rockville gas station re-
ports that two out of three Chew
rolet owners buy high gasoline.
Regular gasoline is used in
school buses.
The county buys its ESQ gaso-
line and oil on a bid basis - 211a
cents a gallon for high test; 10
cents a gallon for regular.

We Must Stay Ahead
By John Marshall Butler
u. S. Senator from Md.

Recently it has been my great
privilege to participate in the
Atoms for Peace Conference in
Geneva. This has been my first
face-to-face encounter with Soviet
officialdom on foreign soil, and
l would summarize my expert
ence as at once both enlightening
and provocative.
This conference, with its EN-.
phasis on the medical and agri-
cultural uses of atomic energy,
is being universally hailed as an
outstanding success. Even the
most casual observer is impress.
ed with the fact that the free
world, and more specifically the
United States, is still ahead Of
the Russians in Harvesting the
atom for peaceful applications.
But, this prominence is no
lasting sanctuary. 1t would be
disastrous to underestimate the
ability and capacity Of the Com
munist scientist in this field. The
Russian exhibits here, while not
fully conforming with our &C.
cepted standards of perfection,
mutely promise that the Kremlin
conspirators will not long be
satisfied with second best.
In listening to these atomic
age discussions, some of
highly technical nature, the
thought occurred to me that
the horrifying image of an A.
bomb or HbOmb holocaust was
constant and everywhere. This
awful possibility likewise seem.

ical".
An agreement was reached that
Mr.. Bowman should sheath the
cealing above the boiler. He was
also willing to comply if the Fire
Marshall could find a way to hang
steel fire escape on the exterior
of the building instead of his pre-
vious recommendation of enclos-
ing the old wooden stairway. The
Mayor and Council will take time
this week to inspect the building
before coming to any decision.
Approved after four public
hearings were the installation of
water mains on Charles St. and
Crabb Ave, the paving of Charles
st. and the extension of sewer
lines on Stonestreet Ave. Action
was deferred on the installation of
water mains on Luckett st. after
property owners protested that
assessment on front foot benefit
basis was unfair.
The replacement of two-inch
water mains with larger ones on
this street and Charles and Crabb
are part of an overall plan to
make the city's water system ade-
quate for fire protection which
is not true at present in many of
the older sections of Rockville.
The Luckett Street mains will
give in addition a needed connec-
ton with the 10000 gallon stor-
age tank in that area. The Luck
EFT st. residents claim that they
would not be helped more than
other citizens by the new installa-
ton.
In other actions, the Mayor and
Council approved two additional
ordinances, the personnel and
electrical code, which is part of
City Attorney David Cahoon's
task of codification of the city's
laws. They awarded to the low
bidder of four, Standard Supplies
of Rockville, the contract for
$472.74 of galvanized pipe.
The city officials agreed not to
contest the claim of George Kim
mel for land on North Washing
ton ST., which on the original plat
of Rockville was designated as
Wood Lane.
Mr.. Cahoon said that he could
find no formal dedication of this
street on any plat and that the
only evidence of public use was
the maintenance of storm drain
age on the thoroughfare. Storm
drainage easement will be re-
quired of Mr.. Kimmel before he
will be granted a building permit
for this site.

has prevailed throughout the
entire conference. 1t is gener-

relaxation of fundamental
security, our representatives
have been more cooperative and
more responsive than have the
Communists.
Rather awkwardly, the Rus

the role of propaganda, which
of course is expected of all Soviet
puppets. Once or twice they en-
deavored to create an air of
Astounding good fellowship. How
ever, the individual Russians with
whom I talked informally were
genuinely polite and cordial.
Nonetheless, each was silent as to
information pertaining to his

a street car, and I saw a member
of the Diplomatic Corps standing
at an open doorway of the st.
Francis Hoteb in San Francisco,
in his shorts, inviting curious
looks from passers-by, perhaps
wondering and figuring if Fill
pinos really have tails! OF course,
everybody has tail-the trailing
tail of custom, the inertia of the
mOres and folkways.
In a certain community where
the wife of the Filipino Consul
and the wife of his Administrative
Assistant were mortal enemies,
the Consul used to tell F'ilipinos
who invited him that if his Ad-
ministrative Assistant and his wife
were invited also, he and his wife
would not be there Another Con-
sui loves to wisecrack all the time.
This is a risky past time for, if
wisecracks are not well timed and
properly tempered, he may hurt
his dignity by descending to vul-
garity or unWillingly hurt the feel
ings of others. This Consul in his
eagerness to entertain even sang
a sensationally, seXually, sugges-
tive song and allowed it to be re-
corded and played over and over
This is, of course, a very mild Of
Tense compared with the scandal
in the Philippine General Consul
ate in San Francisco over a year
ago, when the romantic escapades
of a Philippine General Consul
gave his nation an unsavory inter
national publicity in the courts
and in the newspapers, worthy of
some Hollywood philanderers.
Personally, 1 heard in Los An
geles, a Vice-Consul, under in
structions of a General Consul,
who, in a convention of the Fill
pino Intercommunity Organiza-
ton in America, attended not only
by Filipinos but also by several
American wives and their friends,
condemn Filipinos who became
American citizens. I understand
the patriotic motive, but to do this
publicly is most undiplomatic; for
it is a direct slight on American
citizenship.
DR.. Diosado zap preceded the
Vice Consul, championing Fill
pinos who became American citi-
zens. The Vice-Consups speech
was a reputation of DR.. Yap's po-
sition.
To relieve the embarrassment, 1
rose and said:
Il am not a lawyer like the
Vice-Consul. but as a representa-
tive of $500 workers, 1 am en-
titled to express our position.
1--WE do not encourage nor dis
courage Filipinos from becoming
or not becoming American citi-
zens. We leave that to individual
choice, freedom and liberty
Real loyalty is not mere mat
ter of the heart and the mind. Not
being a lawyer, cannot support
my statement by citation of the
law. But 1 think 1 can analyse the
matter before us psychologically
and sociologically. 1 will illustrate
my point by anecdotes;
According to David de Tagle,
Miss CineO Amos En- America,
there was a Filipino with a white
face but with a Filipino citizen
ship. There was another Filipino
with a brown face, but with an
American citizenship.

Malay Filipino to a test as to
which would go further: The
