ItraSt with the West sector even
on the surface" he said. 1T is
quite evident that there is
prosperity in West Berlin and not
so much in East Berlin.
Then the contrast is shown
even more so by the expressions
on the faces of the people. In
West Berlin the passerby gives
a sense of happiness, confidence
and freedom in his face. In
East Berlin everyone seems silent
and the overall atmosphere is
one of tension.
Throughout our trip we found
"a deep sense of appreciation for
what the American Government
has done through the Marshall
Plan and for what the American
churches have done directly" he
said. There is no trace of bit
lterness from the war"

Benedictine Welcome
This week 1 stopped in to see
/ the Most Rev. Bryan j. McEnte-
CART, rector of Catholic Univer-
sity. He wasn't in but as J
browsed around I came upon the
famous rules for welcoming Wis
Iitors to Benedictine monasteries
hung upon the wall.
Headed by the inscription
"Bene Dictum, Benedicte," the
notice states that any wayfarer
coming to a monastery as q
guest shall be welcomed and may
stay as long as he wishes so long
as he is content with the Gus
toms which he finds in the place.
1t then adds if a visitor has
an honest criticism given with
humility" that is all right but
if he is merely "gossipy and con-
tumacious" he shall be asked to
leave.
If he doesn't want to go, the
rule said, then "let two stout
monks, in the name of God, ex-
plain the matter to him"

An interesting timetable fol
removal Of the Westminster
MD Theological Seminar
from that pleasant town 60 miles
away to the American Univer'
sity campus was given by DR.
Norman Trott at the Methodist
preachers meeting this week.
DR.. Trott, who will be inaugu.
rated as president of the semi
nary on April II. was optimistic
over the possibilities of startins
the first term of the seminary
here in the fall of 1858.
He pointed out that the over
all design of the seminary
campus here, on nine acres al
Massachusetts and University
avenues NV, is now ready. By
June l he hopes to have a def
mite campus plan. agreement
on the type of architecture tt
be used and floor plans for the
first buildings. The structures
eventually will include an ad'
ministrative building, chapel. IL
brary, classrooms, single student
dormitory and apartment dor
mitory for married students
The basic cost. DR.. Trott said
will be about $2.5 million.
While the school probably viii
probably start with its present
enrolment of 1872, it is hoped
that within a few years the fig
ure will reach $50.
The speaker said the goal il
to make the seminary one of the
country's great schools.
Dazzling Figures
DR.. Trott has good. albeit
quiet, sense of humor that comes
out at unexpected times. Dur
ing his talk he used numerous
figures to bolster points about
the seminary.
Il am not trying to dazzle vol
with figures" he said. Then
after looking outside at the
warm spring-like day. he added
"but it is very easy to be dazzlec
by an attractive figure on 6

BY GEORGE FLYNN

The products of the whim of
a Bavarian ruler of the 18th
century are creating a brisk
trade among collectors of por-
celains today.
Nymphenburg figures cur
rently are commanding high
prices in an upsurge of enthu-
siaSm for the finely sculped
German pieces.
Not so widely known as
Nielsen, which inspired it and
other hard-paste German por-
celains, Nymphenburg is most
familiar in its representations
OF italian Comedy and mytho-
logical figures.
These were the special en-
thusiaSm of the Electress Ade-
laide Won Savoyen. an 18th
century occupant of Nym-
phenburg castle, the summer
residence of the Bavarian
kings outside of Munich.
Italian Theme
She encouraged the Italian
theme and, like other German
rulers. promoted the making
of porcelains.
Fortune smiled on the prof.
ect when Franz Anton Bustelli
was engaged in 1854 as master
modeler. Between then and his
death seven years later, he
produced the small figures so
attractive that they have
been made in Nymphenburg
ever since.
The earliest Bustelli porce-
lains were colored. with black
and India red characterizing
the figures. according to Paul
Gardiner. curator of ceramics
at the Smithsonian Institu-
ton.
However, many were left
uncolored, distinguishing them
from Nielsen figures which
tend largely to color.
Bustelli's career is shrouded
in mystery, Mr.. Gardiner says.
Research has turned up little
about his life prior to his
success at Nymphenburg.
Produced Tableware
During the 18th century,
the Nymphenburg factory pro-
duced tableware, some of it

superior to Meissen, Mr..
Gardiner noted.
AS with Nielsen, Nymphen-
burg enjoyed a revival period
in the last century. The Bus
tell creations were copied and
made in large quantities.
These sometimes are mis-
taken for the 18th century
works. since they are finely
made, but they do not COM
mand the prices of the orig
inal line.
Mr.. Gardiner reported that
in a recent auction in London,
two 18th century Nymphen-
burgs sold for $4,000. The
lowest bid offered on any of
the pieces was $4,000.

The sports car fad has al

Camping at Plato Place
began in 1888 when Mr.. Plato
loaned the use of his woodlands
for family picnics and then
later, troop picnics. The first
regular Scout camping on the
site began in the summer of
1851, with two units and a
nursery, with girls coming from
Upper Marlboro and Andrews
Air Force Base for a weeks
stay. Length of session and
size of camp have increased
every year.
In April. 1854, Prince
Georges County parents began
making plans to build a cabin
on the site. Many week ends OF
work and much donated ma
terial were given. The cabin
was disable for the 1855 Day
Camp, and was finally COM
pleted. except for the furnish
ings and other details, last
August.

the applicable records filed under the 1945, 1853 and 1855 acts. Owners of real estate outside in corporated municipalities, school districts and public utility dis tricts were required to file statements of ownership prior to January l, 1856. A penalty of S5 was due from all owners who failed to file or filed late. If the penalty was outstanding for six months, it becomes a lien against the tract and the Land Commis- sioner is required by law to com pile a list of unpaid penalties. This is known as the Delinquent List and is filed with the Clerk of the Court and published in a newspaper once each week for four consecutive weeks.
 If the owners do not file the statement of ownership and pay the small penalty and additional costs, foreclosure proceedings by due process of law follow and the Territory becomes the owner.
 It has been a tremendous task to compile the record of every tract of patented land through out all of Alaska. This has been done insofar as possible in the office of the Territorial Land Commissioner. The list of delin- quent penalties has been filed with the Clerks of Court in all Divisions and in due time the Territory will become the owner of all tracts where the owner does not make his ownership known and pay the small penalty.
 The delinquent list may con- tain the names of many owners who overlooked the necessity of filing the ownership statement or were unaware that such filing was a requirement, regardless of the fact of the release of many

news items which emphasized the importance of complying with filing requirements. These people are still given the opportunity to claim their property classed as that of unknown ownership and foreclosed to the territory.
 Advantages Apparent
 There are advantages and dis advantages to all laws. The dis advantage here is only the pos sible inconvenience of filing a statement of ownership on simple form made available for the purpose. The advantages are many. It has brought to the atten- ton of several property owners the importance of recording their deeds. US. Commissioners report that a surprising number did this after the law was passed. While the law did not require this re- cording of deed, the owners did it for their own protection. A big advantage, of course, is that for the first time in the history of Alaska we have a compiled record of property ownership. The Land Commissioner can now give you the name of the last owner of record in his office for almost every tract of land out side incorporated municipalities, school and public utility districts. The greatest advantage is that the abandoned tracts and tracts of unknown ownership will be foreclosed to the territory and again made available for sale or lease as the law provides.
 It has been a big undertaking. It will be a step in favor of granting statehood. US. Congress- men and Senators will be glad to know that the territory is manag- ing is own land problems under a logical system.

Wild Anti-Russian
 Demonstrations ln' Three Polish Cities

WARSAW, Poland, lR - Wild anti-Russian demonstrations were reported from three major Polish cities Tuesday,
 Angry crowds in WroclaW, she former German city of Breslau, stormed the headquarters of the Polish-Russian Friendship Society and tore down and trampled on Soviet flags.
 A Western eyewitness said the crowds yelled "Rokossovsky to Siberial" and "Tell the truth about the Katyn murders!"
 Marshal Konstantin Rokossov- sky, Soviet Red Army hero of World War II, is the Polish de- fense minister who was busted Sunday from the Communist party in purge of Stalinists.
 The Katyn forest was the scene of the machine gunning of 10000 Polish officers in l94O, before Russia entered the world war. The Russians, who had moved in to occupy eastern Poland, denied Western charges that they did the killing.
 Similar demonstrations were reported from Stettin and the university city of Krakow.
 The demonstrations came as parliament was called into ses- sion here amid public celebration of the nations newly proclaimed independent course. A govern ment shakeup appeared immin- ent.
The Nome nugget., 1956-10-24

Scores of old mining claims, mill sites, cannery sites and other miscellaneous tracts in Alaska were patented and the owners have died without record of heirs, or have abandoned their land without leaving their addresses. The result: No one knows where to go or whom to contact, if he seeks occupancy or ownership of the tract.
 Recognizing this fact, the l945 legislature passed an act requir- ing all owners of patented land outside of municipalities to file a declaration of ownership in the Federal Land Office. A penalty was provided for the owners who did not file their declaration of ownership within the time all lowed. If the penalty was not paid within period of four years after it was due, it became a lien against the tract and it became subject to foreclosure. In 1949 the Territory repealed this law and no outstanding liens were foreclosed because the four year period had not expired.
 The 1853 legislature passed a similar act which required every owner of real estate in Alaska, including tracts within munich palities, to file similar state ment of ownership. The Legis- lature overlooked appropriating any funds for the administration of such act and it was impossible to compile any records.
 Delinquent List
 The 1855 legislature amended the 1853 act. The amended act applied only to lands outside in corporated municipalities, school districts and public utility dis tricts and made an appropriation to cover the cost of compiling all
