The hope
Of Christmas

If the little group in the stable
had looked at the ugliness and
injustice of their world, they
might well have cried, Look
what the world has come to-"
Instead, they looked at the
babe and said, Look what has
come to the world"
In the December Readers
Digest a famed preacher tells
how, despite the grimness of
the atomic age, we, too, can find
new hope in the timeless mes
sage of Christ.

Polio Strikes
Food Inspector
.AndD.C.Youth

A 41-year-old District Health
Department food inspector was
identified yesterday as one of
the city's first two paralytic polio
cases for this year.
The inspector, who lives in
the $500 block Of Twelfth street
NE; is reported in Providence
Hospital in critical condition. He
underwent a tracheotomy, a
throat operation to provide an
artificial air passage in his neck
to permit breathing.
The disease, a Health De-
partment physician said. has
partially paralyzed the inspec-
tors respiratory functions.
A 17-year-old boy is the SECOND
paralytic. He lives in the 2400
block of Thirty-fourth place Sc,
and is also in Providence Hospital.
Meanwhile, physicians are
keeping an eye on an Indonesian
exchange student who was de-
tailed to the same food inspec-
ton division as the stricken in
Spector. He has complained OF
polio-like symptoms. but his case
has not been definitely diagnosed
Fairfax County health author
tiles have reported the only other
paralytic polio case in the area.

Virginia OfficioIs Scored
BY Webb on Segregation

RICHMOND. Sept. 6 (R.-
Delegate John Webb Of Fairfax,
yesterday charged the Governor.
the Attorney General, the States
senior Senator and a host OF
others with demogaguery in the
handling Of the school segrega-
ton issue.
Mr.. Webb said he had spent
nearly two days at public hear
ings on the Governors legislative
program here and had heard
speakers from all over Virginia
rise to support both the Gov.
ernor's program and the con-
tinuance Of segregated public
schools.
The speakers were undoubtedly
sincere and expressed their true
feelings. Mr.. Webb said.
THE demagoguery," he added,
comes from the administration
and It's backers-from Gov. STAN
ley. from Attorney General Lind
say Almond. from Senator Harry
Byrd. and Congressman Smith.

of a man be the goodness of his
heart not the greatness of his
power nor the breadth of his

Urges Religious Devotion
Rabbi David H. Panitz of Adas
Israel Congregation declared the
boom in building houses of wor-
ship must lead to a regenera-
ton of the religious foundations
of our personal and national
life. 1t must become fashion,
able not only to be affiliated with
a religious institution but, even
more, to become enveloped with
a devoted commitment to reli-
gious values and spiritual i'm
peratives."
Rabbi Harry j. Kaufman OF
Beth Sholom Congregation
warned that discrimination in
the United States has disastrous
repercusSions throughout the
world. "a
"The world has become so in
terdependent that even localized
actions Of prejudice can be nc
longer considered isolated in
cidents affecting only a few but
rather serve to undermine
America and the future of ali
mankind" he said.

suppose your daughter has been
kicked in the mouth and stomach
by her husband and q couple of
teeth have been knocked out?
Would you advise her to go home
with that MANI"
Judge Burnett interrupted to
angrily tell Mr.. Boardman: "You
don't have to tell us we are
foolish. We are not damn fools.
I don't like to sit here and be
Icastigated about the rules. The
hearing was called only to get
your suggestions on new rules"
Said Mr.. Boardman: well,
you can't read the English Ian
guage if you think these rules
mean anything but mandatory
reconciliation efforts in every
contested divorce case"
Before Judge Walsh was able
to end the pickering, Mr.. Board
man retired with the remark to
Judge Burnett that "there may
be an occasion in the future
when you can hold me in con-
tempt, but this isn't one Of them;
you don't intimidate me in the
slightest"
Mr.. Boardman was backed
but not in the same manner
by DeLong Harris, q spokesman
for the Washington Bar Assoc
citation, in criticism Of the rule.
He said the court should "invite"
the parties together for recon-
Citation instead of a formal or
der. He doubted. he added, the
cour's ability to enforce the APP
pearance of husband and wife
at the pre-trial chat.
Joseph Sitnick, another attor-
ney, said the reconciliation idea
was "usurpation of the power
which Congress directly gave thii
court"
Dangers Cited
/ Other lawyers talked Of the
dangers Of reconciliation. One
said a woman who is talked into
going back to the man who has
beaten her might get a worse
beating. Another said reconcile
Iation might put the lid on q
steaming bottle and result ir
"a permanent blowup."
