last Sunday.
Street lighting officials said
the District did have a program
it was trying to follow. with a
1862 goal for better light
throughout the city, but COM
plants come in so fast from citi-
zens that we can't do itssyStem-
atically."
These officials agree that the
complaints about crime-ridden
streets have become much more
frequent in the last two or three
years. Police Chief Robert v.
Murray. acknowledging the pre-
valence of street crimes, has said
he needs a larger force to put
more uniformed patrolmen on
the streets and cut down crime.
Charles Nj. Dunn, Illuminating
engineer of the District, and
Herbert A. Friede. chief of the
Highway Departments electrical
division, both agreed that dark
streets are an invitation to crime
and accidents. That's why. they
said. they try to cope with all
complaints from citizens.
THE type of lights on 80 per
cent of our streets are of 1928
vintage" Mr.. Friede reported
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-04-01

The way many of our streets
are lighted, a crime loud be
committed within 100 yards Of q
policeman and he wouldn't see
it. We're trying to work as fast
as We can to get better lighting. >
Mr.. Friede said complaints
came from citizens associations,
from women afraid to walk a
block from bus stops, from room
ing house owners who couldn't
rent rooms because the street
was too dark for women tenants.
and from police keeping run
ming account of crime and &C
cidents.
Mr.. Dunn and Mr.. Friede out
lined this lighting program:
/. On arterial highways and
heavily travelled crosstown streets,
mercury vapor or blue" lights
are being installed.
2. In residential areas, lights
are being increased from $50 to
400 or 600 candlepower. more
lights are being added to poles
and poles are being moved for
better spacing. This is the pro-
gram proceeding spottily all over

Racial Farley
He Will Coll folks
If Congress Doesn't
BY JAMES Y, NEWTON

President Eisenhower said yes
ierday he will consider calling a
conference on racial problems if
Congress fails to act on his sug-
gestion for creation OF 3 bipar-
tisan commission Ito study and
make recommendations" on ways
and means Of easing tensions in
the South.
The President expressed his
views on the race situation in a
letter to Gov. Leroy Collins of
Florida. The Governor had
asked Mr.. Eisenhower to call a
conference Of Southern Cover
lnors and Attorneys General to
review "the South's present
problems IN the whole field of
racial relations"
In Tallahassee, Fla, Gov. Col
Inns said he appreciated the at
tentlon the President had given
his conference suggestion.
Cooperation Cited
THE President obviously has
given careful consideration to
our problems" he said. He has
indicated a willingness TO be CO.
operative and helpful. I appre-
ciate this attitude"
Senator Hennings, Democrat,
OF Missouri, meantime. urged
the Eisenhower administration
to give full support to four civil
rights bills reported favorably
in February by the Senate sub
committee on constitutional
rights. Senator Hennings is
chairman OF the group.
THE time has passed when
the American Negro needs to
have his constitutional rights
studied" the Missouri Demo-
crat said in a statement.
Text OF Letter
In his letter to Gov. Collins,
the President said:
Your telegram Of March
twenty-second in which you sug-
gest that conference of
Southern Governors and Attor-
neys General be called by me
to review "the South's present
problems in the whole field of
racial relations" has had my
thoughtful attention.
II am deeply cognizant of the
difficult adjustments confronting
some localities in complying with
the school decision OF the Su-
preme Court. 1t seems to me
however, that the progress al
ready made in certain regions
of the South before and since
this decision is a clear indication
that we can look forward to even
greater progress If We can look
to moderate and responsible
leadership supported by a spirit
OF patience on the part Of all OF
our people.

day, were outlined PUBLICLY by
the Soviet news agency Tass to-
day.
Two points stood out in the
Soviet proposal. 1t appeared to
go a long way toward accepting
President Eisenhower's open
skies" plan of aerial inspection
to curb armament, and it offered
for the first time to postpone for
future negotiation a limitation
of atomic and thermometer
weapons - two demands which
always have been in the fore
front OF Russian papers on dis
armament.
As a first step. the Russians
proposed a three-months freeze
on arms and ornaments at the
December 81, 1855, level. Then
would come a gradual reduction
by 1858 to at least / 4 million
men each by the United States
and Russia.
Regarded as Too Low
The United States regards the
/ proposed maximum as too low
in the present state Of inter-
national relations. but is pre-
pared to argue the point at dis
cussions of the United Nations
Disarmament Sub ON mite e
which resume next Tuesday.
China, not a party to present
discussions in London, also re-
strict its armed forces to IL
million men and that maximums
OF $4,000 men be assigned to
Great Britain and France. These
figures also appear unsatisfac-
tory to the United States, under
present circumstances, authori-
tative sources said tonight.
The Soviet attitude toward
atomic weapons represented an
about face. For 10 years Russia
contended that they should be
limited or banned as a first step
toward disarmament, and that
conventional weapons should be

Personal Exemption Cut
The income taxes themselves
will be higher, and will affect
all income earned during 1856.
Biggest impact for most tax
payers will be felt in reduction
of the personal exemption from
$4,000 to $1,000, a change ex-
pected to hit thousands who
have had to pay no such tax
here.

switch to collection of income
taxes through Withholding has
forced taxpayers to hand over

One To Grow On-For The Life OF You

above bare minimum, may nave
a lesson for those who are young
in heart. Here, results tend to-
wards better development, higher
adult vitality, greater freedom
from disease at all ages, somewhat
longer life and what is more signifi-
cant-a longer prime of life.
With growing knowledge of the
Importance of riboflavin in main
tanning healthy tissues and general
health, it is recognized that many
people need a better choice of
food to assure an adequate amount
of this B vitamin.
Where then are they to find it?
Riboflavin is formed in growing
plants, so therefore, leafy vegeta-
bles and grains are sources. So are
meats, milk products and eggs
good sources. One of the best, is
enriched bread, ribofavin being
one of the enriching nutrients. Six
slices of enriched bread provide
about Is per cent of ones daily
allowance of this vitamin, an
amount slightly higher than that
provided by an equal amount of
whole wheat bread. Bread has
another advantage-its crust is
barrier to light which can destroy
this vitamin.
Geauga record. [volume] (Chardon, Geauga County, Ohio) 1952-1962, 1956-05-10

Ribodavin, the B vitamin, is for
the young in heart at every age.
From birth, it is essential for a
child's growth and as an adult,
adequate lribofiavin helps make
for a longer prime of life.
Much evidence exists TO show
that the amount of ribofiavin in
ones food has a large influence
upon the level of health and eff
cheney of an individual living
under average conditions. 1t is
difficult to point out danger signs
when the deficiency is not a com
\ plete lack of the ribofavin, but
only moderate one AS an ex-
ample, children may grow and
develop slowly which could be
attributed to heredity. However,
science has shown that in some
cases there is a direct relationship
between growth and ribofiavin in
the diet.
Although this B vitamin is
fairly well distributed in foods and
extreme deficiencies may not be
toe frequent, scientists regard ii
as an important factor in health
and IN builCing already-normal
health to higher levels.
The picture offered when the
diet of experimental animals sup.

Wallet Prints From Your Portrait

Right now we have a special
suggestion for all you young grad
uates. This time we'd like to re-
mind you about ordering small
prints of your yearbook or official
graduation picture.
These small-sized prints have
come to be known by various
names. Wallet prints" is one
which appropriately defines them
since they're exactly the right
size for carrying in wallets. An
other popular name is Friendship
prints"-which is also an excel
lent description of one of their
main functions.
The studio photographer who
took your graduation picture can
make up these small prints for
you. They're quite inexpensive if
ordered in quantity, and they're
Geauga record. [volume] (Chardon, Geauga County, Ohio) 1952-1962, 1956-05-10

especially attractive when printed
on matte-finished paper. We feel
that you graduates will find these
prints the perfect way to ex-
change pictures with your class
mates. And you'll discover that
small prints make wonderful en-
closures when you're writing
thank-you notes to friends and
relatives for the graduation gifts
they've sent you.
We suggest that you make a
list of the people you know who'd
appreciate having prints of your
graduation picture and order
the requisite number promptly.
Whether you call them wallet"
or Friendship" prints won't mat
ter. A small print, by any name,
is always welcome!
