Police today said they are
close to solution Of a dynamite
blast that shattered nearly 100
windows in the $500 block of T
street NV. Saturday.
Key to the situation, Capt. Dan
Kennedy of No. Z Precinct said,
is a black 1856 Chevrolet re-
ported speeding from the scene
of the explosion and two pieces
of dynamite that have been re-
covered.
1t. Sheldon Mckee, chief of
the bomb disposal squad, has
made a preliminary examination
of the unexploded dynamite and
a .30-caliber rifle cartridge re-
covered near the scene.
He described the dynamite as
zone of the most potent types
manufactured" He and Capt
Kennedy expressed the opinion
1t was probably taken from a
sewer construction job in nearby

Almond Backed
For Court Post

RICHMOND, Oct. % (Special)
"A quiet campaign is under
way backing Attorney General
y. Lindsay Almond, jr., for the
empty seat on the State Supreme
Court.
The move appears to be draw
ing the support both of Mr.. Al
mond's friends and his political
rivals. who would like to see him
withdraw as a probable contend
er in the 1857 race for Governor.
When asked about reports CT
efforts to get him on the bench,
Mr.. Almond today said: II am
not considering the matter and
I have no further comment"
His name entered the politi-
cal picture as another prospect
withdrew from consideration for
the appointment. Fifth Circuit
Judge Joel w. Flood of Apo
matox said he would not seek
the appointment because Of his
age, 81.
Battle Withdraws
Former Gov. John S. Battle,
another person mentioned origi-
nally in speculation for the job.
has also withdrawn his name.
The Supreme Court vacancy
was created last Monday by the
death of Associate Justice Lemuel
F. Smith of Charlottesville. It
will be filled when Gov. Stanley
returns from his European trip
in early November.
Many political observers be-
lieve that Mr.. Almond has been
gaining strength steadily in pre-
pairing to make bid for COVER
nor next year.
Bowed Out in 1858
The attorney general got right
up to the starting line in 1863.
But he then withdrew because
he said his entry against two
other organization candidates
Charles r. Fenwick and Thomas
Stanley - would divide and
weaken" the Byrd wing of the
Democratic Party and hearten
its anti-organization forces back
ing Delegate Robert Whitehead
of Nelson County.
When Mr.. Almond withdrew,
Mr.. Whitehead bowed out also,
and it was expected that the two
might meet in a head-on clash
in 1857. No other organization
candidate has worked as openly
as Mr.. Almond in getting pleda es
for the 1857 race.

The open letter states:
AIM lost the 1855 campaign
due to the simple fact that the

Obviously stung by AIMS cool

County Attorney Charles M. Ire
Ian. Circuit Judge Kathryn j,
Lawlor and Juvenile Court Judge
Alfred D. Noyes.
Maryland has sought to take
its judgeship contests out of the
realm of partisan politics.
On the general election ballot
for example the candidates
names appear in alphabetical or
der without party labels.
Nonetheless there are two Re-
publicans and two Democrats
running.
The rare situation of two
judgeships being determined at
the same time developed this
way:
In 1854, the voters decided a
judgeship was needed in Mont
gomery. Republican Gov Nc
Keldin appointed Judge Ander-
son, a Republican to the new
post.
Then in April, 1855, former
Chief Judge Charles w. Wood
ward retired. Gov. McKeldin
appointed Mrs. Lawlor, another
Republican. She is the first
woman to serve on. the circuit
court bench in Maryland.
1t was this double appoint
ment of Republicans that led
to the present contests most OBJ
servers agree.
Brief biographical sketches OF
the candidates follow:
Judge Anderson - A lifelong
county resident with % years
of practice in Maryland, he
comes from an old Maryland
family well known In law circles
His grandfather and an uncle
both served on the bench. He
has the backing Of former Judge
Woodward in the current cam
lpaign.
The 53-year-old judge gained
prominence as an effective de-
putty States attorney from 1947
to 1854. Besides being lawyer
he is a farmer and formerly was
president of the Montgomery
County National Bank in Rock
vile.
! He has served on the Rock

Racial Order
To Be Observed

OASaAAAndbAOAAo boOhAA16 OAAC IA :
lington campaign debates have
agreed to follow State orders
for segregated seating at these
meetings.
This decision was reached by
the sponsoring committees ex-
ecutive board at an emergency
conference yesterday.
Last week, Attorney General
j. Lindsay Almond, jr., notified
Arlington that audiences must
be seated according to race at
the county board candidates ses-
SionS.
Because the meetings are be-
ing held in public school build
ings, the responsibility for des.
ignating segregated seating rests
upon the school board, Mr.. AL
mond said.
Buildings Available
County school officials decided
that the buildings would still be
available if the sponsoring COM
immunity organizations would
agree to follow the segregation
order.
The executive board of the Ar
Ilington Committee for Candi-
dates Meetings, after a confer
ence at the home Of Mrs. Peter
Henle, chairman, announced il
would accept this stipulation.
In a letter to Mrs. Henle
Acting Schoop Supt. E. j. Braun
said the School Board would
designate spaces or seats" ac-
Icording to race. The committee
he said, 'as a condition for
holding your meetings in the
public schools" must agree 'tc
seat members of the respective
races" as designated.
Decision Unanimous
I Mrs. Henle said that the de-
cision reached at yesterdays con-
ference was unanimous. Repre-
scented were the League OF
I Women Voters, ArlingtonianS for
a Better County, Arlington In
dependent Movement, the Demo-
cratic organization, the County
Council of Parent-Teacher AS
Isociations and the Civic Fedora
Ition.
The Arlington chapter of the
prosegregation Defenders of
State Sovereignty and Individual
Liberties picketed the first of the
campaign debates. Members car
ried signs protesting the fact
that the National Association for
the Advancement of Colored
People was one of the committee
co-sponsors.
There were no Negroes at that
meeting. However, several sat
through the next two sessions,
which got under way without any
Ipicketing.
A spokesman for the NAACP
has already announced that this
organization will probably force
an arrest at a future candidates
meeting to develop a court test
of the State ruling.
The next county board cam
Ipaign debate is scheduled to be
held Wednesday night at the
Glencarlyn Elementary School.
The final meeting is set for No
vember l at Thomas Jefferson
Junior High School.

JACK r t n b o e, Defenders
spokesman, in commenting on
an open letter" released by his
group. The letter also predicted
defeat of AIM, which was re-
garded as a Defenders ally in
the 1855 county board contest.
Mr.. Rathbone said results of
the county board race were of
academic interest" only to the
Defenders because the method of
selecting school board members
would be changed at the next
Virginia General Assembly ses-
sion.
Appointive Method Coming
Arlington previously elected its
school board members, but had
that privilege taken away at the
last Assembly session. The law
now provides that Arlington
school board members be APP
pointed by the County Board. AS
a result, the appointment of
school board members has been a
major issue in the current county
board campaign.
Mr.. Rathbone said the De-
tenders have drafted a bill to
place the appointment Of school
board members in the hands of
a school trustee electoral board,
appointed in turn by the circuit
Judge.
The same setup was proposed
at the last Assembly session, but
the county board appointment
procedure was adopted instead
Announcement of tentative in
tegration plans by the elected
Arlington School Board touched
of the wave of retaliatory legis-
lation.
Mr.. Rathbone said the De-
tenders already have lined up
almost enough" sponsors to in
sure passage of the new school
board appointment legislation at
the next Assembly session.
Current AIM Link Denied
In denying any connection
with the current County Board
race, the Defenders open letter
acknowledged that they were
closely allied" with AIM in
1855.
In the current campaign the
AIM candidate, DR.. L. H. Blevins,
earlier has vigorously denied any
connection with the pro-segrega-
ton Defenders.
His opponent, Curtis E. Tut
hill. nominee of the more lib
eral ArlingtonianS for A Better
County. has hammered away at
this issue during the campaign.
Last year, the Defenders took a
vocal and controversial role in
the School Board race, backing
AIMS three candidateS-includ-
ing DR.. BlevinS. None of the
three was elected.
During the 1855 campaign, the
ABC organization repeatedly as
serted that one AIM candidate,
Willis Kern. was a member of
the Defenders. In addition to
the ABC victory at the polls, the
connection between AIM and the
Defenders set off a still unre-
solved $4,000 libel suit by Mr..
Kern against the opposition's
