City Heads Defer Action
On Fringe Parking PIon

The District Commissioners to-
day postponed action on a plan
to use the Industrial Home School
site at Wisconsin avenue and
Calvert street NV. jointly for
recreation and fringe parking.
Similarly, at their regular semi
weekly board meeting. the Com
missioners took under advisement
a proposal to delay enforcement
of regulations requiring removal
of outside water closets and
hydrants in a potential South
west Washington slum clearance
area.
Action on the Industrial Home
School site was delayed when the
noon lunch hour broke up a long
discussion with officials of the
Recreation Department, the Mo-
tor Vehicle Parking Agency and
a spokesman for residents of the
area.
The spokesman, C. Brewster
Chapman, jr.. 1925 Hall place
NV, warned that he could
guarantee a law suit If the
Commissioners approved a new
parking agency plan for the site
which would locate space for $50
automobiles along Wisconsin
avenue.
Engineer Commissioner Thomas
A. Lane, however, moved to
approve a plan for joint rec
reation-parking use approved
several weeks ago by the Ma
tional Capital Planning Com
mission. No action was taken.
This plan would have located
the parking space on the far side
of a recreation area adjacent to
Wisconsin avenue.
Decision on the issue seemed
to lie with Commissioner Samuel
Spencer, after Commissioner
Renah F. Camalier indicated sup
port of Mr.. Chapman's opposi-
ton to use of the site for park
ing at all.
Hear Area C Report
Earlier, the Commissioners
heard Robert F. Kneipp, assist
ant corporation counsel. explain
that the Districts Redevelopment
Land Agency hopes to get formal
approval in October for a plan
to tear down slums in Area c of
the Southwest redevelopment
area.
In the meantime, however,
regulations will go into effect
next July requiring yard water
closets and hydrants to be moved
inside of Washington homes.
There are, he said, some $4,000
such yard water closets, with

Lowe 10 Back
Police Plan for
Youth Division
Program Held Up
Since Last Fall
Pending Study

General Administration Di-
rector Schuyler Lowe said today
he will recommend approval of
the Police Departments plan to
combine all its youth activities
in a strong youth aid division.
Establishment of the new di-
vision-proposed late last fall
has been held up while Mr.
loves office studied the plan.
Mr.. Lowe met with Police Chief
Robert v. Murray last Friday
to iron out differences of opin-
ion between his office and po-
lice officials.
Parts Called "DebatabIe"
Mr.. Lowe said some parts of
the police program are "debat-
able" but he doesn't want to
hold it up any longer. He said
he would send the program
back to the Commissioners late
today or tomorrow with a rec
ommendation that they ap-
prove it.
The youth aid division was
proposed after months of study
to work out a modern program
for dealing with youth in trouble
and for prevention of juvenile
delinquency.
The division has an acting
boss now-Inspector John E.
Winters. He worked out the pro-
gram subsequently reviewed and
revised by Chief Murray's other
ranking officers.
Women's Bureau Included
The new division would include
the Juvenile Bureau now in the
Detective Bureau, the Women's
Bureau now under a district in
spector and the Boys Activitie .
Bureau. The latter would be a
new unit combining all other
activities dealing with boys.
Schoolboy patrol co-ordinators,
the bicycle squad and the Police
Boys Clubs would all come under
the proposed new division.
The reorganization would in
clude an order to the entire force
spelling out detailed new pro-
cedures for handling juvenile
cases.
The program envisages the use
of policewomen to assist in in
terviewing boys as well as girls.
On the preventive side, police
women would go out in teams
with policemen to patrol juve-
nile hangouts.

he said, they will have to spend
some So million.
Cites Costs of Move
If the area is then approved
for slum clearance, Mr.. Kneipp
said, the alterations will cost
the District half that sum above
basic land purchase costs and
leave the owners stuck for the
rest of the bill.

of the Health Department,
warned against continuation of
conditions which could lead to
epidemics of typhoid fever or
other serious diseases.
He said the department would
not oppose moratorium for only
a few months" but would be
deeply concerned by any move
to extend it to other areas
where slum clearance is further
in the future.

2TriaI Justices
AreAppointed
McKeldin Prevented
From Naming Noyes

Gov. McKeldin of Maryland
today appointed Einar B. Chris
tensen and John B. Diamond III
as Montgomery County trial
magistrates, but said he could
not legally reappointed Juvenile
Court Judge Alfred D. Noyes as
the County Council had recon-
mended.
The Governors action was the
latest chapter in snarled-up
transition in Montgomery from
the traditional trial magistrates
system to a new lower court
system to be known as the Peo-
pies Court.
Rejected by Senate
Mr.. McKeldin said he could
not legally reappoint Judge
Noyes because the State Senate,
during the recent 1855 session
Of the Legislature, had rejected
his appointment.
The Senate, it was recalled,
declined to confirm the Cover
nor's nomination of Mr.. Noyes
and two others to Montgomery
trial magistrate posts on the ad-
vice of State Senator Edward S.
Northrop, Democrat, of Mont
gomery. Mr. Northrop recon-
mended such action because the
local delegation was pushing
along legislation for a Mont
gomery County Peoples Court
Of three full-time judges to be
named by the County Council.
Under the peoples court bill,
which the Governor has since
signed into law, the judges take
the bench on June Is. Since
the county trial magistrates
were serving under appoint
which expired Sunday, tenn
porary appointments had to be
made.
Council Recommended 3
The County Council yesterday
submitted the names of Judge
Noyes, Mr.. Christensen and Mr..
Diamond to the Governor, who
had said he would follow the
councils recommendations.
The Star, in a story last Sat-
urday, had pointed out that
Judge Noyes could not be named
to a temporary magistracy be-
cause of the Senate's rejection.
He will be eligible, of course, for
appointment to the new Peoples
Court as of June Is.
In order to avoid a six-week
interruption in Juvenile Court
cases, County Attorney Charles
M. Irelan said today that one Of
the two new trial magistrates
probably will serve in Judge
Noyes' place as juvenile Judge.
