pal yesterday predicted that it
will take five to 10 years to work
out the problems of Washington's
school Indignation.
Miss Margaret Moore, principal
of the H. D. Cooke school, Seven
tenth and Euclid streets, NV,
declared that she felt integra-
ton was right, but she said she
felt that even school officials now
believed that Washington schools
had gone about it too rapidly.
She also said that success in
working it out will depend on
having enough teachers reduce
ing class sizes, getting more help
from social and welfare agencies
and finding more places to put
problem children who need spe-
cial help.
None Of us knew till it hap

investigators, "just what we were
up against"
"SociaI Revolution"
She told the special Davis
Subcommittee she regarded in
Itegration as a social revolution
land that it wasn't something
that could be legislated.
Miss Moore, whose formerly
white school had about 81 per
cent colored pupils last year and
has around 70 per cent colored
this fall, said the burden Of run
ming her school has increased
tremendously since indignation.
Miss Moore testified the change
had brought increased disciple
nary problems. She told of one
case in which a colored boy. who
had been transferred to another
school, came back and demanded
money from a white school pa
troll boy. causing the white
youngster to be afraid to go back
to his post.
She also told Of two cases in

No Proof in Case
Of Grunddcd Still
BY JACK JONAS

Two years of diligent re-
search have gone by, but the
still remains there at the In
ternal Revenue Service, watt
ing for lightning to strike.
It's a fancy thing-even
the Anaconda Copper people,
who came down to measure
and study it, were amazed at
its fine hand workmanship.
The name of the maker, r.
Bush & Co., Bristol, and the
date, 1887, still are quite
legible.
Trying to pin it down as
George Washington's still
from up the Kitchen Stairs, +"
however, has been a frustrat-
ing experience.
Seizure of the still in a raid
by Internal Revenue agents
near Mount Vernon touched
of the search that led eventu-
ally to a bombed-out ware
house in England. It's prox-
unity to Mount Vernon was
not the only thing. Those
arrested as operators of the
still were believed to be de-
seendants of Washington's
slaves.
George Washington was not
exactly the father of his
country's distilling industry,
but he did have a distillery,
set up on money borrowed in
Alexandria. This particular
still, however, is a small one,
mt of commercial size.
