Extrudition Law
For D. c. Runuwuy
Children Urged

Juvenile Court Judge Orm
w. Ketcham yesterday said the
District needs q reciprocal in
terstate extradition law to get
back runaway children.
The reciprocal extradition
laws in effect already in about
20 States are useful tools to
get runaway children back to
the jurisdiction where there
are charges against them, the
judge said.
Judge Ketch a m said the
model, uniform law, 1.-THE inter-
state compact on juveniles, /"
was discussed at the confer
ence of juvenile court judges
in Milwaukee. which he at
tended recently.
The issue Of runaway chill
dren arose in the case Of a
17-year-old District boy who
skipped town after appearing
in Juvenile Court on Septem-
Der IS for auto theft. The
boy is due to face trial in Ju-
venile Court here on october
10 but was arrested recently
in Alpena, Mich, for another
auto theft.
Juvenile Court here has no
jurisdiction outside the Dis
trict and therefore cannot .ex-
tradite juveniles from sother
jurisdictions. Extradition ac-
ton must 60 through the U.
s. District Court for the Dis
trict Of Columbia.
Washington could get back
runaway juvenile delinquents
much more easily with the re-
ciprocal juvenile extradition
law similar to the laws in eff
feet elsewhere, Judge Ketch-
am said.

Secret Service Case
The charge. which involves a
check for $l74.54. followed an
investigation by the Secret
Service.
Representative Miller said he
learned Of the case on Monday.
This came as a great shock
to me-" he said, because she
had been my trusted employe
for nearly Is years"
He told The Star Miss Warme
completely absolved anyone in
my office of any knowledge of
it,"
He described her as a con-
scientious worker. In. addition
to her contributions to the sec
retaries' group, he cited her
donation Of lover 40 pints of
blood to the Red Cross"
$4,000 Total Indicated
Spokesman in the United
States Commissioners Once
said the Secret Service investi-
cation Of payroll irregularities
in Mr.. Miller's Office indicated
that "at least eight checks.
totaling about $4,000, are in
volved. Action regarding some
OF them probably" will be
presented directly to the grand
jury. they said.
The office explained that in
each case Miss Warme failed
to notify the House disbursine
officer of the employees termi-
nation of service until she re-
ceived a number of checks
which covered periods they did
not work.
The check involved in the
arraignment was issued in May,

Olga SLAMS, who left the legis-
lator's ONCE to work for Judge

nature has endowed with I'M
derground wonders. for near its
borders lie the Skyline Caverns.
Tours are conducted every few
minutes through these caves
where rare flowerlike calcite
formations called anthodites

cascades form picturesque

How Front Royal got its
name is one of Virginia's quaint
chronicles. 1t seems that a
giant oak, the royal" tree of
England. once stood in the town
square where the colonial local
militia practiced it's drills.
One day an exasperated drill
sergeant who was trying des-
