Tomorrow Is Yours

The world is not yours as yet
but it will be the day after
tomorrow.
The boy had begged for a
globe of the world as a Christ
mas present and now it was
his. He sat up in his bed late
that Christmas eve holding
the globe in his hand and
studying it fondly. His father
came in, took the globe from
him, put out the light and said,
go to sleep son." AS the
father strobe out of the room,
the world under his arm, the
lad called after him eagerly,
dad, what are you going to
do with my World!"
You know what we have
done with it. Soon we will
hand it over to you SCARED,
war-weary, hopelessly in debt,
divided, frustrated, afraid. A
teacher asked a pupil in a geo
graphy class, What is the
shape of this world, Willie"
He replied, dad says it's in
the worst shape it's ever been
in!" I doubt that-but we have
a job to do.
May / remind you Scouts
however, that before you are
too critical of my generation
you try raising the world
yourself its heavier than
you think. He was helping his

Blair Lee III charged yesterday
that the bill apparently is being
kicked around in the Senate"
Mr.. Lee dashed out particularly
at Senator H. Winship Wheatley
jr., Democrat of Prince Georges.
IF the Senator from Prince
Georges County won't let us have
this additional measure of home
rule. then we will have to strike
out on our own Mr.. Lee told his
fellow delegates at meeting
Bach Schweinhaut Bill
He explained that if the re-
Organization bill which he
drafted does not clear the Senate
within two or three days" he
will press for enactment of a
bill by Delegate Margaret C.
Schweinhaut, Democrat of Mont
gomery, empowering charter
counties to set up their own
planning agencies.
Until now, Mr.. Lee and Mrs.
SchWeinhaut have been bitter
foes on the planning issue.
Senator Wheatley told The
Star he and Senator Edward S.
Northrop have been diligently
comforting on the Lee bill, which
would increase membership of
the commission from six to 10
and place the appointments in
the hands of the Montgomery
and Prince Georges governing
bodies. The Governor now APP
points the commissioners.
Senator Wheatley said they
had conferred at length Monday
with T Howard Duckett, special
counsel to the commission, who
has said the commission is will
ing to 20 along with the Lee bill.
Harmony Expected
Senator Wheatley said Sena-
tor Northrop is chairman of the
select committee to which the
bill has been referred. The other
member of the committe is Ma
jority Leader John G. Turnbull,
who is expected to go along with

whatever Senators Wheatley and
Northrop decide on the bill.
Senator Northrop said he and
the Prince Georges Senator are
trying hard to work out their
differences on the reorganization
measure.
I'VE most emphatically are not
holding up action on it," he said.
Neither would discuss their diff
! ferences.
I The Montgomery County Coun-
Gil voted yesterday to seek
prompt action on the Lee bill so
the General Assembly might have
a chance to override a guberna-
torial veto if it should come be-
fore the session ends April /. A
companion bill that would ex-
tend the commissions jurisdic-
ton throughout Montgomery
County also was supported in the
action opposed only by Mrs.
Stella B. Werner and j. Grahame
Walker. council members who
have supported the Schweinhaut
measure.
A telegram was sent to Sena-
tor Northrop asking him to push
for early action.

Penalty Considered
For Building Delay

The Falls Church School Board
last night ostponed a decision
on whether to penalize builder
for an expected 66-day delay in
completing an addition to George
Mason High School.
Two representatives of the
firm. the Wayne Construction
Co. appeared before the board to
Justify the extension of time,
which they said was due to late
arrival of steel shipments. Com
pletion of the addition had been
set for September 30. The new
target date is December 4.
Board members argued the
firm must have anticipated the
delay when the 1911 900 contract
was signed and that the board
was due a rebate. A decision by
the board was set tentatively for
the April 2 meeting.
The construction firm was rep
resented by Arthur Myers and
Claude E. Keener.
