Jam of I roffic Cases
Toxes ArIington's S Court

Arlington judges ran out of
|courtrooms yesterday, causing
one jurist to hear overflow traffic
cases in his own chambers and
then preside in a jury-witness
room.
There also was standing room
only in one court, while princi-
pals in a jury case waited in
the Railways for an available
room.
The logLjammed court day
went like this:
Circuit Court Judge Walter T.
Mccarthy had a non-jury civil
case to hear and both circuit
court rooms were in use.
County Court Judge Paul D.
Brown. who had yet to hear his
civil docket, first checked the

Judge Bron then vacated his
courtroom for Judge McCarthy's

chambers to help out on the

presided over his civil cases in
a small witness-jury room.
Meanwhile, a jury, litigants
and lawyers were forced to wait

ST. MarY Suit
Asks Integrated
School System
U. S. Court Order
Sought by NAACP
In Maryland County

BALTIMORE. Mar. II R.-
The National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People
yesterday asked Federal District
Court to require the st. Marys
County Board Of Education to
integrate public schools.
The suit contends that some
66 Negro children are forced to
travel from 4 to miles to 60 to
school although they live much
closer to schools restricted to
white children.
The schools the children at
tend were identified as Jarbor-
vile Consolidated School in
Carver Heights and the Ban
|neker Elementary School in
Loveville. The suit contended
these schools are inferior to those
for white children.
Named as defendants were
Miss Lettie M. Dent. county Su-
|perintendent Of schools; G. Ed.
ward Thomas. president of the
Board of Education, and the
other four board members.
The suit states that the par
ents of the 66 children last Sep
tember petitioned the board to
abolish segregation, but the plea
was refused and no plans for in
tegration have been formulated.
The four NAACP attorneys
who filed the suit charged that
the 66 children are being denied
their rights to enjoy nonsegre-
gated education ''as soon as prac-
tical" as ordered by the United
States Supreme Court.
The plaintiffs asked the court
to forbid segregation and to
order the Board of Education to
present an integration plan to
the court.

1t happened at the District

l767 Massachusetts avenue NV,
while Chief Justice Warren and
Mrs. Warren were making an
inspection of the society's school
and treatment center.
With Easter Seal Month

society had invited the Warrens

drive for funds. Photographers

faith alone not going to be sufficient to win eternal

Christ summed up the Ten Commandments in two

Budget Backed
Citizens SupportFund
At Final Hearing
In Prince Georges

| A $7.5 million requested ap-
lpropriation for operation of
Prince Georges County schools
won strong support in Hyatts-
willie yesterday as the Commits
sioners concluded their final
hearing prior to adoption of the
county's 1956-57 budget.
The commissioners are ex-
pected to adopt the budget dur
ling the next two weeks, but not
before trimming some depart
ment requests in order to hold
the present tax rate of $2.15 per
500 assessed valuation. The to-
tai $3.50 million budget as pro-
posed wuld require a 13-cent
tax rise.
The Commissioners have indi--
Gated a firm stand against any
tax rise this year.
Most of the rs persons at
tending the hearing pleaded for
approval of the school boards

reductions.
PTA Group Present
Among them were representa-
tiveS from at least nine PTA
groups and several citizens as
sociations,
Sole opposition came from Ed
gar C. Partlow Of Takoma Park,
who advocated withholding so
per cent of the funds until Sep
tember until we can see what
the school board is going to do

applause when he answered I'm

proved integration of school chill

cludes sufficient appropriations
in acceptable categories to quail
fy for a maximum $97,500 in

Library Fund Supported
Also drawing support was the
library boards proposed 1884 ,839I
budget, including funds for al
new bookmobile, increased serv-
ices and the purchase of library
sites in Chillum and Bladens-
burg.
Only one person at either of
the two hearings this week has
asked the Commissioners to hold
the present tax rate.
The League of Women Voters
advocates program of provid-
ing essential services "even atI
the expense of a moderate in
crease in the tax rate"
Mrs. Sterling Ament, president
of the group, told the Commis-
sioners a failure to increase the |
rate "can only have the effect of
weakening county government |
services" County departments, |
she said, are caught in a squeeze |
between rising debt service costs
placed at $2,823, ,054 in the pro-
posed budget. and the failure of |
the assessable base to increase
fast enough to produce needed
revenues.
Mrs. Ament suggested the
county make a stast in financing |

you-go basis to improve its credit |

Month" selections. For the last
three or four years, however, our
selections have only served to
duplicate the awards given by
the Press Box Association. Since
the Press Box Association honors
amateur and professional ath-
leteS and coaches, it was felt that
we were no longer making a
significant contribution to the
honoring of Arizona's athletes,
but were both competing with
and duplicating the efforts of
the Press Box Association"

Mother, if you do quite a bit

and string loosely together. This
chain will keep baby quiet for
hours at a time. Older children
can entertain themselves with
paper bags. A few crayons and a
pair of blunt scissors can trans
form the bag to funny hats and
masks.
Do you keep transparent plas-
tic wrap handy in your kitchen?,
It has many uses including the
wrapping of sandwiches, fruits
and vegetables. Limburger chees,
cut onions and parsley sprigs
wrapped tightly in transparent
wrap seals out odors. 1t also can
be used to cover refrigerator
bowls. Very economical, use
again and again - just rinse
