Vandalism Held Local, National Threat
To Paintings of Trees, Shrubbery

Vandalism, a national as well
as a Montgomery County pro-
blem, hasn't made things easier
for paintings in public places.
Malicious destruction, high
cost of maintenance and adverse
growing conditions have become
limiting factors when selecting
trees, shrubs and flowers for any
type of public planting. The
trend is to have landscaping that
presents the least problems, often
at the cost of beauty and SYM
metry.
Such is the observation of M.
w. Staples, field supervisor of
the Davey Tree Expert Co., who
points out vandalism today is one
of the biggest worries. Since ex-
pensive paintings are apt to get
broken up every year, only the
most adequately policed public
areas can be graced with bloom
ing trees and shrubs, flowers and
gardens.
AS a result, the authority pre-
diets there will be more extern
sive paintings of barberry and
other common shrubs. seldom

were conducted on a tour of the
farm by their host, Mr.. Burge

Most of the cubs had never
been on farm before, and great
interest was shown in the farm
animals and equipment which
was described by their host.
Equally entertaining to the cubs
were the hikes, tug of war, In

arrow hunt.
After having refreshments, the
entire pack, cubs and councillors,
left for home tired but happy

more attractive Towering sorts
are desirable. Plants that have
unusual hardness and, impor-
family, an inbuilt defense system
of thorns are more likely to be
featured in public paintings.
Adverse conditions of traffic
congested downtown areas make
selection of shade trees rather
difficult. The London Plane and
Norway Maple usually are re-
sorted to because of their ability
to thrive under extreme summer
heat and sooty conditions.
Many cities do have lovely
parks, but these usually are
located in the suburbs where
traffic is less severe and pride of
the citizenry eases the problem
of vandalism.

BY DEWITT S. HYDE,
CONGRESSMAN

Federal economists are general
ly agreed that the United States
is now headed toward period
of relative balance in the indus
trial segments of the economy.
There are areas, however, which
may be retarded or thrown out
of balance either through unwise
legislation, or the lack of legisla-
tive action by Congress.
The farm program is one of
the areas which we need to
watch. 1t is also one of the areas
in which unWise legislation can
cause great damage. The Eisen-
hover administration, through
Agriculture Secretary Benson,
has worked out a series of adj
iustments in basic agricultural
laws. A part of the governments
agricultural policy includes the
application of the principle of
flexible price supports to the
basic crops-wheat, corn, cotton,
tobacco, peanuts, rice.
Now pending before Con-
greSS are measures which
would set aside, before trial,
the flexible principle for the
basic commodities. Current
farm prices are the result of
the rigid 80 percent price sup
ports in eject throughout the
entire period of the decline in
prices. The rigid price sup
port principle is also RESPONSE
BILE for our present large sur
pluses.
Flexible price supports are
designed to bring about bet
ter balanced farm production.
1t is level which can move
upward as well as downward.
The actual use of this princi-
pie will direct our production
into useful consumption, rath-
er than into government stOr-
age.

many people work but have their
home in nearby Maryland and
Virginia. The result is that half
of the cars are from other
places. I want to assure the
people of Washington, on the
one hand, and our visiting
sightseers and workers. on the
other. that this will present no
unreasonable problem in the ad-
ministration of the safety re-
sponslbility law.
"Our new law will be quite
familiar to visitors from As of
the 48 States. Kansas, South
Dakota and Massachusetts, are
the only States that do not have
the same kind of statute. with
comparatively minor variations
here and there among other
States. So the great majority
of our visitors are fully aware
that our safety responsibility
law will suspend the motoring
privileges of owners and oper-
ators. residents and non-resi-
dents alike, if they are involved

here. In those accidents. 81 per-
sons were killed and 2.028 we're
injured. Over 5000 of these
drivers casued property damage.
"At the Department of Vehicles
and Traffic, we shall not hesitate
to use our new law to the fullest
extent of its ability to reduce
these accidents. At the same
time, all may be sure that if our
drivers are involved in accidents
in other States having the same
provision, we shall be equally
firm. As a matter of fact, we
could not be otherwise if we
wanted to, but where public
safety is involved, we don't want

manner. if we should receive
legal notice that a car registered
in the District of Columbia had
been involved in an accident in
Maryland and had not satisfied
the safety responsibility law
there. we would suspend his
privilege here to the same exteRt
that suspension would apply had
the accident happened at home.
In other words. in effect the
motorist is grounded at home
and abroad.
THE large numbers of visit
ing motorists who come to Wash
ington day in and day out,
whether to work or as tourists,
are warmly welcome. This is the
Nations Capital, and as such
the Nations own city. We must
ask, however. that first, they
obey our traffic laws, which are
for their benefit as much as our
own; and, second, if they do
commit a violation, that they be
prepared to indemnify those
whom they damage in person or
in property.

Il am sure every one will see
another great benefit of this law.
1t is the incentive it provides for
driving safety, both at home and
abroad. But for those who might
not. let me cite a few figures. In

Nearby Drivers Warned
Of Responsibility Law

Maryland and Virginia motor
lists, who drive to work in the
District, got a stern warning
today from District Traffic Di-
rector George E. Keneipp.
Mr.. Keneipp. in a statement
on the new Motor Vehicle Safety
Responsibility Law which goes
into effect in the District next
Wednesday. pointed out that
such drivers, as we'll as all other
visiting motorists, are subject to
all the requirements of the new
law
The new law provides stiff
penalties for drivers involved in
accidents who cannot prove
ability to pay injury and dam
age claims up to $4,000. 1t re-
quires drivers to file written re-
ports on special forms to the
Department of Vehicles and
Traffic within five days after
any accident causing injury or
more than $100 damage or face
automatic suspension of driving
licenses and car registrations.
States Have Similar Law
This is the text of Mr..
Keneipp's statement:
washington is one of the
Evening star., 1955-05-19

in the District Of Columbia will
net only have their privileges
suspended here but also back
home. And as our own law has
the reciprocity feature, District
motorists will pay the same pen
atty if they violate the statute
in reciprocity States.
Penalty at Home and Abroad
Here is how it works:
Assume that motorist from
Maryland-or it could be far
away California-has an acci-
dent in the District of Columbia
which comes under our safety
responsibility law. He has no
insurance and can't furnish COL
lateral or obtain release from
liability. We must suspend his
privilege to own or operate a
motor vehicle in the District.
But the penalty does not stop
there.
"a certified copy of the sus-
pension order and circumstances
causing it is sent to the COM
parable official in Maryland and
;he Maryland motorists privileges
are suspended there to the same
extent that suspension would
have applied if the accident had
happened in Maryland. AS a
matter of fact, suspension ap-
plies in every State having the
reciprocity feature. including
the District of Columbia and
far away Hawaii.
Thus, in exactly the same
