ANNAPOLIS, Jan. 16.-Dele-
gate Margaret C. Schweinhaut Of
Montgomery County out-per-
suaded both the majority and
minority leaders Of the House Of
Delegates yesterday to keep alive
her bill for education Of pre-
school handicapped children.
The silver haired won a n
Democrat from Chevy Chase
charged that the powerful House
Ways and Means Committee was
irresponsible and reckless" for
trying to amend the measure.
This brought boiling retorts
from Democratic Majority Leader
A. Gordon Boone. committee
chairman, and Minority Leader
George Hughes, jr., one Of the
instigators Of the amendments.
The bill. brought to the session
this year through a special Legis-
lative Council Committee of
which Mrs. Schweinhaut was
vice chairman, would require the
Governor to budget at least
$3.50, 900 next year to give handi-
capped children under 6 the
same school training now pro-
vided for Sabotage handicapped
children.
Permissive Amendment
The House Ways and Means
Committee adopted amend
nents to remove the $250,00o
appropriation and simply state
that the Governor may" pro-
vide for the program. Mrs.
Schweinhaut called the amend
ment Gripping"
The first amendment was de-
'feated, 66 to as, the second by
q voice vote and the third,
SO to so.
The bill, already approved by
the Senate, now faces final APP
proval in the House. 1t will need
81 votes.
Opposition arose In the SEN
ate Finance Committee yester-
day to inspection Of automobiles
at private garages supervised by
State police. The House passed
it, 80 to 10, but q Senate sub
committee was named to con-
slider having the inspections
done by the State entirely as
Gov. McKeldin proposed in his
opening day State Of the State
message.
Senator George Della. Demo-
crat of Baltimore, said he could
not conceive Of the State again
adopting the private garage
system that it had back in the
1930's because there was SO
much fraud" in 1t.
Power Curb Proposed
Senator James B. Monroe, Re-
publican of Charles, who led the
fight against q similar private
garage bill two years ago, said
the system would Just be q

He told Of one sales executive
who needed $50,O00 to build a

had one. He had to borrow
money and when the time came
to repay it. the executive was
deeper in debt because of
having to entertain his new
|neighbors.
"The executive and his wife
came to me-" Mr.. Kaskel said
"She was wearing all her
jewelry and a beautiful ermine
wrap. The husband took OF the
valuables. one by one, until he
had enough money"
Mr.. Kaskel said many people
come to him because they don't

out-of-town clients who have

There are also a lot of people

them pawn things with me to
tide them over until they can

Are most people embarrassed
about coming into Kaskel's?

Haskell. Many use the private
entrance. some try to use false
names and others even send
their servants. The rich seem to

over q diamond necklace.

"Now. remember, my husband
mustn't know about this"
The employe smiled to him
self as he thought back a week
when her husband sat in the
same room and pawned q valu-
able ring.
For this was Kaskel's in mid
town Manhattan-a pawnshop
for the wealthy.
Arrive in LimOusines
It is not uncommon for an
expensive limousine to pull up
in front Of the office building,
a chauffeur to open the door
and a well-to-do client walk
quickly to an inconspicuous en-
trance. This was the way many
of Kaskel's customers entered
when they were too shy to use
the front door.
The woman who pawned the
diamond necklace had over
drawn her checking account.
She needed money quickly, but
would replace it in a few weeks.
This incident" says Clar-
ence Kaskel, founder of the
plush pawnshop, illustrates
that a rich man can feel just
as broke as q poor man-the
only difference being that a
poor man accepts the fact,
while q rich man is more sem
sitive about it because he's
not used to it."
Mr.. Kaskel started his un-
usual hook shop three years
ago Several years in the busi-
ness has convinced him that
rich people at times need money
just as much as poor people.
I'm my old place. he says.
II pawned objects for many
rich people. So I decided to
establish q shop that not only
would be easily accessible to
them, but also would be q nice
place for them to come into.
II selected a place Just on
Fifth avenue and don't think
I didn't have trouble establish
ing there. Many merchants in
this stylish area strongly OBJ
jected. but ! was able to con-
vince them I wasn't going to
open an ordinary pawnShop."
Tasteful Front
Kaskel's doesn't have the
traditional three-ball sign and
the cluttered windows. Instead,
there is q long white canopy
and windows tastefully deco
rated with items that make
milady's mouth water-$19, 900
necklaces. $4,000 rings. ex-
pensive furs. Kaskel's resembles
a fashionable store, with show
cases glistening with valuable
gems and silver, mahogany
paneled walls and inch-thick
carpeting.
A vault contains thousands of
gems, paintings and other
valuable objects. A cold storage
room in the basement is nearly
filled with more than 5000 furs
worth an estimated half a mil
lion dollars. Every item is in
cured.
Mr.. Kaskel employs a staff
of Is. including mis- two sons.
He is the only New York pawn
broker who is a member Of
the exclusive Fifth Avenue As
sociation and Better Business
Bureau.
Many people warned me this
shop would fail" Mr.. Kaskel
smiles. But last year we made
more than $4,000 loans totaling
SIS million. including $4,000
for ore necklace. This averages
a lot more than 500 a loan.
More than 80 per cent Of the
security objects have heen re-
deemed-primarily because the
items hooked are so valuable
that the owner wants them
back as soon as possible"

COMMUNITY CHEST, A CASE
Continued from page II

tCOnClnucd from page -
ct the records of one city, one
particular institution, at one
particular time: the Community
Chest of Indianapolis in the ear
ly 1950's. For long time, 1t had
failed to meet its goal. Commun-
ity Surveys was asked why. This
they answered. And In the pro-
cess, they made important dis
coveries about charity on the
North American continent gen
orally. Many revolutions had
taken place in giving from the
days Of the covered wagon to
today's traffic jams.
Here are some Of the radical
changes:
Corporations have replaced in
dividuals at the top Of donors
lists.
Payroll deductions and year.
round campaigns are taking
place Of giving by impulse. In
other words, giving is now PLAN
ned for you.
The man who actually re-
ceives your charity becomes ever
more remote.
It is now civic duty to
'fbear your fair share" rather
than religious duty to be char
liable.
A mans reason for giving is
no longer private conscience but
the pressure of public opinion.
The collection plate and the
beggar's extended hand have
given way to the call at home
or office by an amateur, or pro-
fessional, campaigner.
Public service campaigns are
being used as a training ground
for executives.
A new induStry-fund- raising
and a new businesSman-the
fund-raiser- have emerged to
organize giving and to mould
public opinion about charity.
This provocative report will
interest every community in
Canada and the United States.
It has just been published by
the University Of Toronto Press.
