The
Rambler
Snowfall RecuIIs
BIizzurd of '9o
BY JACK JONAS

You call this snow? Son,
you should have been here in
1899.
That was the year of the
biggest blizzard ever to lay
its paralyzing hand on the
city of Washington, despite
what some may say about the
Snowstorm of 1922.
1t had been showing, off
and on, for four or five days
in February of 1899. Then on
Saturday night, February IL,
the wind came bowling in
and with it the really big
snow.
Before it quit showing Mon
day afternoon, 80 inches lay
piled on level spots where the
wind. couldn't reach. But
where the wind did catch it,
it drifted to eight feet.
Nearly everything in Wash
ington shut down.
The Streetcars quit run
ming. They couldn't buck the
drifts across the tracks. The
motormen and conductors
left their cars where they
were and trudged back to the
barns in the tracks they'd
made getting as far as they
could.
Suburbanites were snow
bound. Some of the mail was
getting delivered, but the
mail wagons were using four
horses instead of the normal
one or two. So were the de-
livery wagons of the grocers.
Transportation into and out
of Washington was at a
standStill. The trains quit
running. Navigation on the
river already had become i'm
possible because of ice brought
on by the coolest weather in
memory.

Fairfax Girl, Fionce
Die at Intersection

A high school girl and her
If1ance were killed when their
car was involved in a collision
at the intersection of Cedar lane
and Lee highway. where Fairfax
County police have been trying
to get a traffic light installed
for two years.
The crash at 11:15 pm. Sat-
lurday claimed the lives of Miss
Marihelen Hepp Stamates, 10.
of Barley drive, Mantua sub.
division. Fairfax. and Thomas H.
Harvey. %. of 1924 North Lib
erty street. Arlington.
Injured in the collision was
Charles Keller. 20, of Fairfax.
who was admitted to Arlington
Hospital in fair condition with
cuts and internal injuries.
Miss Stamates. a student at
Fairfax High School, and Mr..
Harvey. assistant manager Of
the new F.. w. Woolworth's store
at Seven Corners, were on their
way home from a Saturday night
date. They became engaged last
week, Miss Stamates' mother
said.
Fairfax police said Mr.. Harvey
pulled out from Cedar lane onto
Lee highway, and his car struck
broadside by Mr.. Keller's auto
mobile. which was travelling
along Lee highway.
Car Knocked 100 Feet
The impact knocked Mr.. Har-
vey's car nearly 100 feet, police
said. Both Miss Stamates and
Mr.. Harvey were thrown to the
road. Miss Stamates died about
10 minutes after reaching the
hospital and Mr.. Harvey was
dead on arrival.
Fairfax Police 1t. Louis Shu-
mate said the county first wrote
the State Highway Department
about the Lee highway-Cedar
lane intersection in 1855, re-
questing a study to see if a traf.
f1c light should be installed or
if some other improvements
could be made to reduce the
number of accidents there.
1t was pointed out in that
letter that visibility was OBJ
Istructed by a high embankment
and shrubbery.
Last December 5, police 1rote
the State another letter, request
ing traffic studies at several in
tersections including Lee high
way-Cedar lane. 1t. Shumate
said in the letter he ranked the
Lee highway-Cedar lane inter-
section. and as result the banks
were to be cut back, the grade
was to be lowered. and a flashing
signal light was to be installed
on trial basis
Miss Stamates is survived BY
her mother and stepfather, Mr..
and Mrs. Carl w. Stamates, of
her home address; her father,
Frank L. Hepp of New York
City, sister and brother. Sandra

Bureaus official thermometer
at the Capitol had registered
a record breaking II degrees
below zero. 1t was still hover
ing around zero on Monday
morning.
The sidewalks were lmpas-
sable, and the city made no
effort to enforce the law re-
curing property owners to
keep their sidewalks free from
snow. Pedestrians who VEN
tured out walked in the mid
die Of the street, in track
made>by wagons and teams.
The fine powdery snow was
whipped by a 36-mile-an-hou
wind, and that, too, made
walking difficult. Umbrellas
were torn from their users
hands. In those days of
boards and moustaches. the
man who braved the outdoors
on February 10, 1899, suon
found his face a mass OF

The city's grocerS began a
voluntary rationing system,
limiting even their steady
customers, because none
could tell when new supplies
would come into the city.

vegetable prices went up pro-

Pope Says:
Urgent Need
To Combat
Immoral Lit

VATICAN CITY - (NC) -
There is an urgency to fight in
every way possible the work of
the enemies of the Church who
with writings and other weap-
try to confuse minds while a
whole mass of immoral publica-
tons threaten the spiritual
health of youth"
His Holiness Pope Plus XII ad-
dressed these words to Father
Giacomo Alberione, founder and
superior general of the Pious So
ciety of st. Paul, in a letter con-
graduating him on his 50th ami
versary in the priesthood.
The first step in the fight
against immoral publications, the
Pope wrote, lis to make available
good reading matter which favors
the integrity and probity of the
families and the individual citi-
zens."
The Pious Society of st. Paul
was founded by Father Alberione
in 1914 to spread the Gospel
through the press, moving pic
lures, radio and-added with its
advent-television. The Society's
M%otherhouse is in Rome. Mem
bers of the American province
are active in the Archdiocese of
Detroit and New York and in the
Dioceses of Buffalo and YoungS-
town.

nearest alert parents, teachers,
the police or even Congress about
the connection between obscene
literature and immortality. In fact,
the Select Committee (Congres-
sional) on Current Topographic
Materials spelled this out recent
ly with much lurid proof. Judges,
police officials, psychiatrists and
teachers not only stated absolute

there was a connection between
obscene literature and immoral
actions but got down to particu-

paper added, that these state
ments were made with a head
long, single-minded desire to pre-
vent the curbing of freedom and
that sufficient attention was not
given to the implications. But this
is falling into the pit of complete
relativism while scurrying from
the shadow of a threat to free
dom. We, too, are deeply con-
cerned with the preservation of
freedom, the basis of all morality,
and the quotation cited by JUS
tice F%rankfurter refers to the
throttling of free schools in
South Africa where the Catholic
Church has done the most to up
hold freedom and the dignity of
all men.
"All law and the protection of
freedom is based on the hard
core of immutable truths, as the
Ten Commandments. If the Gov
eminent does not recognize and
defend them, in sexual immoral
ity as in other matters, the Gov
eminent as well as society cannot
survive"

Papers Urge Officials To Fight
Printed Filth With Court Weapon

Recent decisions of the
United States Supreme
Court have greatly strength.
ened the hands of public
authorities in the fight
against printed filth.
This is the tenor of editor
ial comment in Catholic
newspapers throughout the
country which call for local of
ficials to make use of the imple-
ment that has been put into their
hands. The papers speak with
particular reference to the court
opinion that obscene literature
falls outside the constitutional
guarantee of freedom of speech
and of the press.
In almost identical language,
The Monitor of San Francisco
said I'VE welcome the Supreme
Courts decision which arms
federal and state authorities
with powerful weapons to war
on obscene literature" At the
same time, the paper quoted
Herman Stark, director of the
California Youth Authority, as
reporting that There r at
least Is daily feIevision pro-
grams that cause youngsters to
commit certain types of
crimes" II spplavded this

Archdiocese of Boston, said opin-
ions may differ in a broad look

at recent Supreme Court de
cisions, but its decision regarding
obscenity STRUCK a serious blow
at all those who have maintained
that freedom of the press and Of
speech must of necessity include
that which is obscene"
The Catholic Telegraph Reg
lister, Cincinnati, said the
courts ruling in the obscenifY
case gave a stiff JOLT" TO
pornosraphy merchants, and
was "doUbly impressive" be-
cause ii came ION the heels of
several decisions that stressed
individual freedom in civil lib
critics cases." Whatever one
may think of the courts action
in the earlier cases, II must be
granted THAT the decisions of
last week demonstrate that fhe
majority of the Justices reeos-
nize that freedom must be ex-
ereised whiting reasonable
bounds"
"We hope that the lower courts,
and particularly the municipal
courts, will follow the lead of
the us. high court" the editori-
al added, ''for it is on the local
level that the battle against
pornography will be won or lost"
The Alamo Register, San An.
tonic, said the Supreme Courts
decision on obscene literature
"has brought the problem of the
'unbridled press to the attention
of thinking people"
1.-THE matter of obscene litera'
ture cannot be ignored any
more" the paper asserted.
The Globe, Sioux City, Iowa
said the courts decision EARNED
federal and state authorities with
powerful weapons to war on OBJ
scene literature"
"We realize that Legislation
cannot solve the problem in its
entirety" the Globe said. "It car
only rid the stands of the worst
of the material. But that certain
ly would be a great help. Let us
hope that our public officials will
be encouraged by this ruling OF
the Supreme Court and that they
will be stimulated to act accord
ingly."
The Catholic Standard, news
paper of the Archdiocese of
Washington, charged edit0rially
that "some of the Justices of the
Supreme Court, in defending a
distorted idea of mans freedom
in recent decisions, have ended
by denying mans nature and the
laws of morality"
