than having high school gra-
duates fill these positions. The
reason is obvious. Children at
such tender ages must be
carefully and delicately han
died. T h e j r undeveloped
brains are nodded by every
influence to which they are
exposed and they are SO sus-
ceptible that they readily alb
sorb everything and anything
that may be thrown at or Of

that fact we require qualified
and experienced instructors to

the impressionistie years. You
have heard the statement,
time and again, that a sixteen

stronger than the foundation
on which it stands. How true!
For, if you build on shifting
sand, on loose rock, or even
on an incline without proper
support, the building will ul-
crack, stagger and
collapse.
I place emphasis on this
point for the reason that the
rookie who joins the force sur

ADDRESS
delivered by Commissioner
Of Public Safety Leon Nav
son at the opening Of the
Police School
Fellow Officers:

It is with mingled pride and
pleasure that / address you
this morning on the occasion
Of the establishment Of a
training school for the officers
and men of the Department
Of Public Safety. To me it re-
presents the fulfillment OF a
wish which / expressed to you
gentlemen on the morning !
took my Oath of Office as
Commissioners of P u b1i e
Safety.
We are all deeply indebted
to Mr.. Carroll Doyle, Special
Agent in Charge of the Fed
eral Bureau of Investigation
Office in San Juan, Puerto
Rico, who responded to my
appeal for launching this pro-
iect, both here and in Saint
Croix. He shares my feeling
that for any man to become
an able and efficient officer,
he must be properly trained
and educated in the field of
his choice. There are certain
basic and fundamental rules.
that should be learned by a
person coming into the SER
vice so that as he advances
and grows in experience, he
will become not only profici-
ent in his work, but an expert
in the profession so that he, in
turn, may pass on to his ju-
nior officers the wealth of
knowledge a n d experience
w h i C h he has acquired
through the years.
AS a member and former
Chairman of the Board of
Education, I have contended
through the years that we
should always strive to place
teachers with degrees in our
elementary grades. e r

The county's controversial
100000 plan to widen Arlington
Rd. in Bethesda from a narrow
residential street to 44-foot wide
business thoroughfare will be
aired at a public hearing before

A number of home owners in
the exclusive Edgemoor section

project when it's been discussed
before. Half.mile long Arlington
Rd. bisects Edgemoor and parts
Of the Bethesda business district.
The Bethesda.Chevy Chase
Chamber of Commerce gave its
unqualified endorsement" to the
project this week but suggested
no assessments for home owners
who give land for the widening.

sessing residential property own
ers $12 a front foot for the street
and commercial property owners

Smoke Control
Plan Hearing
Set March )

The County Council set March
5 for a public hearing on coun-
ty government sponsored ordi-
nance to control smoke in the
county after rejecting a plan
that would have required large
smoke and fume producers TO get
permits before building.
The proposed ordinance per-
mits the county to take action
against firms that produce smoke
of more than a certain density.
The rejected plan was proposed
by Councilman Robert Snure. He
says it is recommended by the
Air Pollution Control Association.
The measure would require the
owners of industrial, commercial,
and apartment house property to
obtain county permit for fuel
consuming equipment. The equip
mefit would have to meet certain
standards.
County Health Officer William

plan.

The Bonnie string of towers
will carry six high voltage wires
from PEPCO's proposed general
ing plant at Dickerson to the Ia
korna Park area where they will
tie in with the companys circuit.
The six lines would carry $780,.
600 volts.
Two PEPCO officials told a
meeting of about SO Brighton
area residents last Friday that it
is Impractical and impossible to
run the lines underground.
Roland Bortner, in the COM
pany's real estate division, says
it would cost between a half-mil-
lion and IS million dollars per
mile to bury the line. He says
lines carrying 100000 volts have
never been run underground for
long distances before.
Appearing with Mr.. Bortner at
the meeting was George Bisset,
senior vice president Of PEPCO.
r. C. Hurley, Washington
patent attorney and one of the
spokesman for the protesting
home owners, says the residents
would give the power company
a right of way for only token
payments if PEPCO would run
the lines underground.
Mr. Bortner says about 10 mil
es of the 250-foot wide right of
way have been acquired. He says
the company has condemned

Tense Week for Rockville.
AS a spur to the rest of the
city, the civil defense people
urged the Mayor and Council to
work out CD plan for itself and
the city employees by next
month.
Director L. S. Van Ripper said
that the Rockville plan was based
on "Self Help" advocated by the
Maryland CD people, predicated
on the fact that ''it can be safer
staying in your city than trying to
get OUT
Rockville, he said, is no longer
considered a reception center for
refugees from Washington and
the city would be required to fur
nish only temporary shelters
along the evacuation lanes for the
refugees in case of an emergency.
Civil Defense is cooperating"
the director pointed out, "and can
do little for the average citizen if
he is just sitting tight. But if
every citizen takes the home pro-
! lection course and acquaints him
self with his block and section
wardens, the CD organization can
help him."
He also said that anyone wish
ing to become a worker before
