On October 20. the board
granted a liquor store license
on Macarthur boulevard NV.
applying the same new policy.
The heart of the policy is to
require a far stronger showing
from opponents that the board
heretofore has customarily de-
manded in denying licenses,
The new stand, first publicly
outlined by The Star last week
has stirred sharp attacks from
citizens association leaders.
The three-man board, in the
new case, applied a populations
estimating formula. which also
was used in last months Mac
Arthur boulevard case.
See 1-tO-5 Ratio
The board estimated there are
SITS adults in the Ninth street
neighborhood surrounding the
newly approved liquor store.
Asserting that the ratio Of
those protesting to those not
protesting appeared to be Of the
order of approximately one to
five, the board said 1t was mot
satisfied that to issie this Ii
cense would be contrary to the
wishes of the majority of the
persons residing andior owning
property in the neighborhood. -
The neighborhood. it was
learned afterwards, was defined
for purposes Of the decision as
being bounded by Randolph,
Thirteenth, Crittendon and
Fifth streets NV.
The population estimate,
Chairman Alan W. Payne dis
closed. was reached by multi
plying a count Of houses in the
area by 2.39, a figure represent.
ing the average Of adults per
family. This figure was OBJ
tanned from DR.. Jerome p.
Pickard, Washington Board of
Trade economist.
In its two-page finding, the
board also discounted argu-
ments Of opponents and the sig
nificance Of opposing resolu-
tons by civic groups.
Responds to Objections
The main objection made,
said the board. was that an
adverse affect would be had by
the presence of the desired IL
cense upon the children and
young persons attending
schools, churches and the near
by public library" But the find
ing said:
"The board is unable to per-
iceive how school children could
be adversely affected by the
passing by a store Of the type
desired, especially in view Of
the fact that store operators are
aware Of the illegality Of sales
Of alcoholic beverages To
minors"
The board said only 10 per-
sons were present at a meeting
at which the Petworth Citizens
Association voted to oppose the
license. 1t also said only execu.

Act to Meet Seasonal

Anticipating a seasonal up
turn in street robberies, police
today announced plans to ex-
pand patrols on Washington
streets.
Purse-snStchings and yokings
have already started to increase,
with three reported last night
and three the night before. The
increase is about normal, police
said, a condition which begins

Tuxicubs

The conference approved a
campaign to establish a volun-
tary system of standard taxicab
fares. based on mileage, to APP
ply whenever cabs operate OUT
side the jurisdictions in which
they. are licensed.
It proposed that taxicabs
charge the established rates
for travel within the jurisdic-
ton in which they are licensed,
but bill passengers at the rate
of 40 cents a mile when they
cross the boundary line into
another jurisdiction.
The conference decided to
sponsor an area wide meeting
Of cab owners, drivers and reg
ulatory officials to seek volun-
tary agreement on the new
plan.
Overcharges Protested
A report on the taxi situa-
ton from a committee headed
by Maryland State Senator Ed
ward S. Northrop said the
greatest complaint against
cabs is that drivers "over-
charge" on such trips.
This committee does not be-
lieve that the absence of fixed
legal rates for interstate cab
service constitutes a sufficient
excuse for charging any inter-
state passenger a fare which is
completely unrelated to dis
lance. time or services rem
dered." the report said.
1t urged that cab owners who
agree to the standard rates be
given seal of approval" stick
ers that would inform passen-
gers Of that fact. and list the
interstate fare. The conference
did not discuss any possibility
OF compulsory action to force
compliance with such a plan.
Conference members said
that some cabbies already
charge a fiat mileage fare for
second Jurisdiction" travel and
that others use "destination-to to-
destination" rates.
Pentagon Case Cited
The report also called for:
/. Much stronger controls
over cab drivers operating in
the Pentagon-Navy Annex
area. The report noted "in-
stances Of drivers who were
denied operating licenses OF
who had their permits revoked
by other Jurisdictions because
of moral Or criminal offenses
engaging in taxicab operations
at the Pentagon."
2. Prince Georges County to
join other Jurisdictions in "re-
ciprocal agreements" to per-
init out-of-county cabs which
bring passengers into Prince
Georges to pick up passengers
on the way back.
3. More unified requirements
for taxicab liability insurance
In the various jurisdictions,
with particular need to raise
requirements in the District.

along the river above Little
Falls. It would, however, the
report said. require develop
ment densities low enough to
be handled by individual septic
tanks. or development capable
Of having its sewage pumped to

The conference asked each
jurisdiction to assume respon-
sibility for carrying out the
principles of this policy" and
to inform the conference any
actions that it plans to take
to do so.
Only one member of the con-
ference. William Hansbarger. a
member Of the Falls Church
City Council. refused to go
along with this policy. He said
he wanted to abstain until he
had a chance to study it fur
ther.
The conference also approved

further subjects of study in

BedroomArresi
Action
Arlington Boord
Votes Court PurIey

The Arlington County Board
voted to confer with the County
Court judges on last weeks
controversial bedroom arrest of
a woman for an overdue park
ing ticket.
The move was made on the
recommendation of Common
wealth Attorney William j.
Hassan and County Manager
A. T. Lundberg.
Yesterday Mr.. Hassan noti-
fed the board that the author
|ity for limiting the serving of
warrants rests solely with the
County Court.
On November IA. at about II
pm. three county policemen
entered the unlocked home OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Roy A. Stephens,
1908 North Twenty second
street. and served an overdue
parking ticket warrant on the
woman in the couples bedroom.
Today the board adopted a
motion by Ralph Raul that it
set UP a conference with
County Court Judges Paul D.
Brown and Homer Randolph
Thomas on possible changes in
arrest procedures to "avoid in
the future a repetition of the
Stephens incident"
However. three board mem
bers - Chairman Wesley w.
Cooper, Mrs. Leone eBuchholz
and DR.. L. H. Blevins-made it
clear that they felt the arrest
was fully justified.
Earlier this week Mr.. Lund-
berg had made public informa-
ton that Mr.. Stephens had
been given 81 traffic tickets in
Washington, Arlington and
Montgomery County, Md. since
1899.
According to police. Mrs.
Stephens had ignored the
warning letter after she failed
to pay the 50 parking fine. In
addition, they said, police had
made three unsuccessful trips
to the house earlier that eve
ming and the officers had got
ten no response by pounding
on the door and shouting on
the trip after the couple had
returned home.
Mr.. Cooper said he had no
objection to a change in pro-
cedure-but not for the bene-
ut of the Stephens couple.
To this. Mr.. Raul replied:
IF you are defending police
entry in the middle of the
night" for a minor offense, Il
am in sharp disagreement with
you"
Mr.. Raul added that it
might be necessary. after the
conference. for the board to
recommend changes in State
law.

Government Secrecy

0VVStutltCut SSSIGSy
BY C. w. PUFFENBARGER
The University Of Maryland
dedicated its new journalism
building today with q challenge
to take advantage Of the struc-
lures nearness to Washing
ton in training newsrnen for the
complicated job now facing
them.
William Dwight, president
Of. the American Newspaper
Publishers Association said the
occasion was a memorable one
because today's newspapermen
must have the intellectual
equipment to comprehend the
bewildering developments that
are occurring in our lives"
He told the some 200 top
State officials and members of
the journalism profession at
the ceremony in College Park
that the proximity of the
new building. which houses the
9 year old department of
journalism and public relations,
can also be another weapon in
the fight to cut through the
Gordon of secrecy which has
grown up around the Federal
Government"
He warned that invasion"
against this right of the Amer
lean people to know are repeat
eddy being made at all levels
of government"
Examples Given
He cited as examples Secre-
tary of State Dulles refusal to
let newspapermen enter Red
China and the Indictment sew
eral weeks ago of the editor
and publisher of a Southern
Maryland newspaper which had
been critical Of a Circuit Court
judges appointment Of duph-
cate boards for handling road
condemnation cases in st.
Marys County.
And, he remarked, 1.-THE news
paper faces a double problem
in dealing with Government
information, for bureaucrats
have discovered public rela-
tons.
1T takes a keen, experienced
reporter to get past the parlor
and the friendly public rela-
tons representative and find
out for the public what is hap
pening in the way Of policy,
financing. personnel and so on"
Mr.. Dwight said.
This school of journalism at
the University of Maryland,
with the modern tools that
such fine building offers, To-
Gated close by Washington, can
perform distinguished service
for the American people by
training men and women to be
dedicated newspaper people. :"
he said.
Mr.. Dwight headed a long list
of guests at the dedication cere-
mony in the university dining
hall after a morning open
house which included a tour of
the $500 building located on
the southwest corner of the
mall.
The guests included Gov. Nc
Keldin, State Senate President
Louis L. Goldstein, Oscar Nor
ris. president of the Maryland
Press Association, and others
who were welcomed by Uni
versity President Wilson II.
ElkinS.
The journalism department
was established on the campus
in 1948 in one room of a tenn
porary building. Alfred l..
Crowell established public rela-
tons the year after he took
over the department in 1850.
The new building has been in
use since last February.
The Georgian structure
houses four student publica-
tons as well as classroom,
laboratories and faculty Offices.
A drive is now under way for
$4,000 needed to purchase
equipment for printing these
publications in the new empty
pressroom on the building
ground floor.

A leading Arab diplomat yes

DR.. Mast HAM, cultural at

nue. NV. conferences such as
the one being held would aid
materially in enabling the fol-

College Courses Suggested
ITO face each other not to
argue which religion is more
authentic or more original but
rather to discuss as human be-
ings our common points would
be most helpful" DR.. HAM said.
He said this also could be
done by having courses in
schools and colleges on these
religions. by having available
literature which is understand
able to the general public and
by utilizing radio and television
to bring talks about the two
faiths TO people in Muslin and

What Amateurs Should Do
And Not Do in Spray Painting

Here are a few dos and
|don't's" to keep in mind when
spraying paint:
DO-Spray outdoors whenever
possible and indoors only when
there is plenty of ventilation and
no flame in the room.
DO-Hold the gun parallel to
the work and at right angles
about 6 to 10 inches from the
stock. testing first to determine
Ia smooth finish.
DO-Pull the trigger just be-
fore moving the gun across the
work and release it at the other
edge, but continue to move the
gun until it is past the surface.
DO--Aim the gun at the bot
tom of each preceding stroke, a
procedure that will insure Just
the right amount of overlap.
DON'T-Tilt the gun or arc
the strokes, faults usually caused
by holding the wrist too stiffly
DON'T-Spray furniture OF
other objects while they are on
the floor or ground, as this will
disturb settled dust and spoil the
job.
