Delegate Praises
Arlington Plan on
New Bond Issues
BY ALEX X. PRESTON

/ Delegate Frank p. Moncure OF
Stafford County is planning leg
lislation to permit only the own
ers Of real estate to approve
future bond issues in Virginia.
Speaking at a States Rights
Party meeting in Arlington last
might, the peppery lawmaker
congratulated "the good people"
Iof the county who approved a
similar plan in a referendum last
month.
you clipped the wings of the
cliff dwellers' when you passed
the freeholders referendum" he
said.
Cliff dwellers" was taken to
mean those who live in apart
Iments. Under Arlington's new
bond-authorizing procedure, a
majority of the property owners
(freeholders) as well as a major
ity Of the total vote henceforth
will be required.
Plans Bill
THE State of Virginia should
have that law" Mr.. Moncure
said, "in order that the crack
pots, the cliff dwellers and the
fly-by-nights will not leave you,
the property owners, holding the
bag.
IF reelected, will intro
duce a Statewide bill where
only the freeholders-not a ma
jority of the voterS-will vote on
those bond issues"
The country lawyer, whose lit
tie frame Office is beside Route /,

up for reelection next year. A
strong opponent of Federal en-
ployes holding State and local
Offices, Mr.. Moncure earlier this

Arlington elected its school
board. He sponsored the meas

experience in Richmond" he be-
gan his remarks before an au-
dience of about rs, ito differen-

and the crackpots of Arlington. y
Defends Support
The fire-eating orator devoted
much of his talk to a defense OF
his support of the States Rights
Party candidate for President

cent election Mr.. Andrews drew
about $4,000 votes in Virginia.

was a mistake.
He drew a distinction for what
he stressed was "the Democratic

TRENTON, N. j., Aug. 10 up.
New Jersey Senate last
night confirmed John o. Bigelow
as a member of the Rutgers
University Board of Governors,
ending one of the most violent
legislative storms in the States
history.
At two previous sessions, the
Senate Judiciary Committee had
refused by a 4-3 vote to report
out. either favorably or unfavor-
ably, the nomination of the 73-
year-old retired judge.
The four Republican COM
mittee members opposed to MIR.
Bigelow said they were not salts
fed with his replies to questions
about communism and teachers
who plead the Fifth Amendment.
Way Now Cleared.
The confirmation cleared the
way for a reorganization of
Rutgers University to give the
State greater control over it. The
State >University's Board of
Trustees meets today, and is ex-
pected to put the final stamp
of approval on the reorganiza-
tion.
The Senate broke precedents
again as it conducted its final
debate and roll-call vote on the

He said Mr.. Hodges attorney,
Arthur H. Fitzgerald, wanted to
know the least sentence Mr..
Coutrakon would recommend be-
fore Circuit Judge L. E. White.
Added the prosecutor:
II told Mr.. Fitzgerald I was
not going to make any deal on

if Mr.. Hodge pleads guilty, I felt
it would be my duty to object
strenuously to the courts passire

Mr.. Coutrakon said he felt GER

.AECContracts
Criticized
BY the Associated Press

0J tuS AoooCldbeu ELeSS
Comptroller General Joseph
Campbell reports two Govern
ment atomic plants are buying
private power under contracts
that contain major weaknesses"
that could lead to excessive"
rates.
While asserting that rates
presently are reasonable" COM
pared with other private utilities,
Mr.. Campbell said the contracts
fail to put a ceiling on the cost
of power.
His conclusions were in a re-
port on the Atomic Energy Com
missions contract with two pri-
vate utility combines selling
power to Acc plants at Paducah,
KY, and Portsmouth, Ohio. Mr..
Campbell submitted his review
of the contracts to Acc Chair
man Lewis L. Strauss yesterday.
The Paducah plant gets its
power-at an estimated annual
rate of $24.7 million from a plant
at Joppa, Ill. operated by Elec-
trio Energy, Inc. (EED, a COM
bine of five utilities.
The Ohio Valley Electric Co.
(OVEC). with Is sponsoring
firms, sells electricity to the
Portsmouth plant at an esti-
mated annual rate Of $50 million.
Mr.. Campbell noted that he
had previously complained that
Eel was overcharging the Pa
ducah plant for power.
Now, he said, EEL has agreed
to a lower rate on a formula
suggested by Mr.. Campbell,
bringing EEI's price down to a
reasonable figure.

voted for confirmation and four
Republicans voted against.
An 11-day deadlock over the
nomination was broken when
Senator Thomas j. Hillery, Re-
publican of Morris, although OPP
posing Mr.. Bigelow. signed the
Judiciary Committee report
without recommendation, which
allowed the entire Senate to
vote on the issue.
The Senate held three ex-
traordinary sessions in the II
days and twice had Mr.. Bigelow
appear to give his views on COM
munism and use of the Fifth
Amendment by teachers, once
in secret and once in a prece-
dent-breaking public hearing.
Bar Backed BigelOw
Bar associations and other
groups in New Jersey. New York
and Pennsylvania criticized the
Judiciary Committee majority.
Mr.. Bigelows nomination was
one of six submitted by Gov.
Robert B. Meyner. 1t was headed
for clear sailing, like the others,
until the Judiciary Committee
learned that Mr.. Bigelow was at
torney for Robert Lowenstein, a
Newark teacher who invoked the
Fifth Amendment before a con-
gressional subcommittee.
Mr.. Bigelow said at his New
ark home he was delighted" by
the confirmation.
The former State Superior
Court judge said he had no for
NAL comment to make but added,
