Individual Sales Blocked
The council and the commits
sion. in the latter part of 1855.
blocked sale Of the prof. ect homes
to individual buyers on the
grounds that the dwellings were
substandard and did not comply
with various county building and
coming codes.
Since last October, occupants
lof the project homes have been
raising funds to make a s49. 900
down payment for the 19-acre
project. The first hurdle was a
$4,000 good faith deposit, ="
which was paid last December.
The cooperative leaders today
presented the government a
check for the remaining S44, 900,
plus an additional sum of about
$4,000 for the tax and insurance
pre-payments.
Occupants Get Priority

the co-opG! ative corporation
sold SHARES. giving first priority
to present occupants of the
homes. The cost per share, en-
titlin~ the buyer - perpetual
occupancy Of a two-bedroom
dwelling, was $847-Se6S for a
three-bedroom home. Monthly

$50 and $50. The homes were
cor itructed by the Federal Gov

as part Of its wartime housing
program.

The Federal Bureau Of Public
Roads. it is understood, is try
ing to convert the expresSway
into a Federal interstate route
under the new Federal Highway
Act. which would involve turning
the entire road over to Mary
lands care and opening it UP to
truck traffic.
Commission Resists
The Maryland Roads Com
mission has resisted this pro-
posal and is pressing for Federal
interstate aid money for a third
route between Baltimore and
Washington. which would come
into Washington in the area
near the Montgomery-Prince
Georges boundary line.
Passage Of the Robinson bill,
in the view of most observers,
would prevent the Federal Gov
eminent from making the ex-
presSway an interstate route,
since the Federal act requires
those routes to be open to all
types Of traffic.

Democrat of Prince Georges,

bill, but "those merchants on

The Sanitary Engineering
Committee of the National Clay
Pipe Association learned that
when 100 new families move into

. First, and most important, is
the need for additional sewage

sands of miles of underground
clay pipe play an everyday role
as guardian of the health of the
people. They are one of the
cities lifelines. Experience has
shown that underground pipes
must withstand severe chemical
and physical attacks. Only clay
pipe gives such performance.

Senator Lehman'S Talk
On Human Rights

flict over human rights in the
South.
At last, President Eisenhower
acted with all the force at his
command. All honor to him for
his action. It was the only thing
to be done, under the circum-
stances, to save the Union, as
he has said, from anarchy. To
have let the mobs have their
way and trample the ConStitu-
ton underfoot, would have been
inSupportable.
In 1894, President George
Washington sent Federal Troops
$1,000 of them into Penn
sylvania, into the upper reaches
of the Monongahela Valley, near
what is now Pittsburgh, to curb
the Pennsylvania farmers of that
area who were rebelling against
the collection of an unpopular
excise tax on whiSkey. AS the
story goes, President Washing
ton reviewed the troops before
they left on their march into
Western Pennsylvania and Sec
retary of the Treasury Alex
ander Hamilton rode along to
encourage them.
But the present instance was
not a case of enforcing an un-
popular tax imposed by the Con-
greSS; it was rather a case of
protecting the supremacy of the
u. S. Constitution itself.
Nor was it alone a question
of protecting those nine Negro
school children in their right to
attend Central High School in
Little Rock. It was an action
necessary to uphold the basic
right of 20 million Negro Ameri-
cans-and indeed the rights Of
all Americans.
AS for Governor Faubus, I
predict that he will be remem-
bered in history among those
foolish and short-sighted men
who have vainly tried, like King
Canute, to use their puny au-
thority to hold back the tidal
forces of history the forces
of right and freedom.
In a way, Governor Faubus
