A new pattern of align
ments in the House Of Rep
resentatives was revealed in
the changed and favorable at
titude of the House Rules
Committee toward the long
bottled-up school construction
and civil rights bills. Election
year politics is a factor and
what happens from now on
may have a significant effect
on the presidential and con-
gressional elections.
For many years. ever since
1888 in fact. we have become
accustomed to the familiar
coalition Of Southern Demo-
Gratis and conservative Repub-
licans which has been so pow
erful in the House and often
blocked New Deal and Fair
Deal social and economic re-
form measures. in which cate
CORY would be included the
school construction and civil
rights programs now at issue.
The last citadel of this CO.
alition was the Rules Commit
tee. and its car for long has
been the veteran Representa-
tive Howard w. Smith of Vir-
ginia, a most conservative gen.
tleman Of the old school. This
committee is charged with
fixing precedence for consider
alton of bills by the House.
but long ago it went beyond
this traffic cop role and ar
rogated to itself the power to
delay, sidetrack and even pig
eonhole measures approved by
legislative committees at the
whim of the dominant coali-
ton of Southern Democrats
and Republicans.
But in the last few days a
revolution occurred in the
committee, and it was organ
lied and led by one Of his
Democrats. a newcomer to the
committee, Representative
Dick Boiling of Missouri. To
his dismay, Chairman Smith
suddenly saw the old coalition
break up as young Democrats
under Dick Boiling and Re-
publicans on whom the chair
man had relied broke away and
OVERRIDE him 8 to 8, to give
a green light to the school
construction bill, which prob
ably will go before the House
for action next week.

you're an exception, says Samuel
G. king.
Mr.. King. Baltimore lawyer
and author of several books on
marriage, told the Maryland
State Bar Association yesterday
unhappy marriages far outnum-
Der blissful unions.
For every four marriages,
there is one DIVORCE" he said in
a speech at the annual conven-
ton Of lawyers. And Of the
three remaining marriages. only
one is really happy.
THE other two are marriages
that are merely tolerated for one
reason or another.
Average Lasts 10 Years
Some couples remain unhap-
PLY wed because of religious
scruples, some for the sake OF
children. others for sheer in
ertia, some because of cowardice
or lack of gumption. some fol
reasons of vanity, status or pres
tige.
Fifty years ago marriage was
for life. Today, the average
duration Of marriage is about
10 years. In almost half Of 9
test survey Of $1,000 divorce:
made in 1949. the marriage
lasted five years or less"
Mr.. King told the lawyers HI
is convinced that youthful
marriages are an important fac.
tor in our shocking divorces
rate"
The grim fact is that in {
marriage where both parties arr
20 or younger the divorce ratI
is even IA per cent higher thar
the normal rate" he said.
Maryland Law Criticized

Few Residents vofe;; Bond Issue Fails

Tn one of the lightest votes in years this past Tuesday city vot- CTS turned down the $2O0, ,OO0 bonded indebtedness proposition, by the total of 84 yes, 73 no. A two-thirds majority was neces- sary to pass the proposition.
 Successful candidates for the two three-year terms on the City Council were Ray Lancaster. with 94 votes and Charles Logs don with 72 votes. Other candi- dates and their total votes were Ethel M. King, 66; Robert Part ridge, 56, and Lewis GeiWitz, 56.
 Elected by a wide margin to the single five-year term of of five on the Palmer Board of Ed ucation was Richard Jones with 113 votes. Other candidates and their totals were: Emil Cans chow. 49. Lewis Pinkham, 43; Mrs. Noel Woods, 39; Mrs. Mary Frey, 10, and Arthur Brundage, ' A total of PIT votes were cast in the school district, of which 16 were ruled invalid, leaving a total of 261 valid votes cast throughout the entire school district.
 Some confusion was experien- ced at the polls by voters wishing to vote on the bond issue Ac- cording to legal notice publish ed for a number of weeks before the election and in news articles, an aligibie voters name had to appear on the 1856 tax roll. Sev- eral women found that their nam- eS were not listed on the list at the polls, although their hus- bands name did appear on the list. To become eligible to vote they were asked to go to the tax assessors office where it was determined whether or not they were on the official tax roll. If found to be on the tax roll they were issued paper stating that they were listed and thus elig- ibl to vote. Several voters did not bother to go back to the polls. A number of voters report ed after the election that they did not understand the propoSi- ton. It has since been suggested that the Chamber of Commerce sponsor open forums prior to any election where a proposition is to be presented to enable vot- CTS to become familiar with the proposal.
 Members of the City Council will meet to canvas the vote on Monday, October 8, and the two new council members will take their paths of office on Tuesday evening, at the regular City Council meeting.
