Parking Plan
Gets Booking

An attorney for a group OF
homeowners In Montgomery
County's Springfield area yes
terday said the Westwood
Shopping Center's proposed
residential parking tract would
provide "the best solution to
a bad situation"
At a County Board of APP
peals hearing, owners of the
shopping center and a 1877
unit apartment development on
the same tract presented their
case for a 6.99-acre parking ex-
ception on residential R-60
land south Of the commercial
tract.
Their proposal was favored
by a small group Of home
owners and builders repre-
sented by Attorney Austin
Carlin. Mr.. Carlin said his
clients had opposed the apart
ment project but have been
assured that. II the parking
application is granted. there
will be no roadway from the
apartments to their residential
street-Albia road.
The three-hour meeting was
recessed until July % when the
Springfield Civic Association
will be given an opportunity to
present opposition testimony
Association President Gerald
w. Collins said the 450 home
owners in the group "object
strenuously" to the parking
plan on the grounds that the
developers in effect are seeking
to extend "this already large
commercial zone."
The Springfield citizens. in q
separate action, have filed a
protest to the granting Of a
building permit for the apart
ment project. Their first appeal
was turned down by the ap-
peals board. Later, the building
permit was revised and the
civic body filed another appeal
which the board has taken un-
der consideration.

administrators already have
recommended that 1874 elemen-
| tary teachers and rs secondary
teachers be placed on second
class status at the outset of

status may be recommended by
the superintendent on the basis
of unsatisfactory performance
or lack Of teacher training cer-
tif1cation.
This status, which has the
effect of freezing a teachers
salary. was recommended for

the party's nominees In the

connections with the commit
tee.
Mr.. Krupsaw and Mr.. Kaul,
Democrats, are seeking re-elec-
ton as candidates under the
banner of the nonpartisan Ar
lingtonians for a Better
County.
Leroy Bachelor, a member
of the committee, proposed a
resolution at last nights
closed door meeting calling on
the committee to drop the dis
pute.
Loses by Five Votes
The vote was "a for the
motion and 90 against.
A committee spokesman said
the Bachelor motion was made
at the request of Alfred E.
Grove. president Of the Arling-
ton County Chamber of Com
merce, who was named this
week as the Democratic Party'S
nominee for the board.
This did not mean that Mr.,
Grove wanted the committee
to 'indorse Mr.. Krupsaw and
Mr.. Kaul, the spokesman said.
He (Mr. Crowe) simply ex-
planned that the fight would
hurt his chances of being
elected"
The closed door meeting was
called after the committee had
asked Mr.. Krupsaw and Mr..
Kaul to decide on their affilia-
tions. The members, however
made it plain that they were
not issuing an ultimatum, but
called on the two men to act
honorably and to remove
themselves from all untenable
position"
No Reply From Kaul
Mr.. Kaul has been out OF
town for several days and so
far has made no reply.
Mr.. Krupsaw, however. sent
the committee a four-page
statement in which he said he
intends to carry out his Demo-
cratic Party pledge. This would
mean that he would have to
vote for Mr.. Grove for one of
the two board vacancies. But
he. charged the committee with
doing a great diSService to the
Democratic Party in Arlington
in insisting on running a board
candidate.

ST. PETERS AME

Sunday morning August 2, was
lovely day and the drop in tenn
perature was welcomed by many
church goers. Rev. NJ. L. Simmons
delivered an inspiring communion
message, in spite of a heavy laden
heart due to so much illness and
the many deaths among people of
the community.
His text was when We Turn
from God" jeremiah 2:13, For nv
people have committed two evils,
they have forsaken me the foun-
tain of living waters, and hewed
them out cisterns, broken cisterns,
that can hold no water" Rev.
Simmons stated that there is a
parallel between the present day
in which we live and the DAYS of
jeremiah, for jeremiah was a true
prophet of God
The speaker further stated that
no situation is changed by a con-
formist and that jeremiah didn't
come out for fame, he came out
for truth and insisted that religion
be put back into ritual. He en-
phasized that when man cries out
with sincerity, God will hear and
answer; that religion is more than
just attending church and that a
christian work is never done as
long as people are out of the fold.
In conclusion the Pastor pointed
out that one who forsakes God
must take the one road left, the
one that leads to hell, for they have
turned to broken cisterns that hold
no water and its tragic.
Rev Simmons christened four
children just preceding his mes
sage. They were Sheri-Anne Free
man, Yoette, Arnold and Ronald
Irving.
The Senior Choir and the Can
tinos provided the music. Miss
Barbara Greene was at the piano
and Mrs. Dorothy Sims at the
organ.

HOUSE OF REFUGE

According as he hath chosen us
in Him before the foundation or
the world that we should be holy
and without blame before Him in
love.
Subject of radio message was
Holiness" This word Holy is most
evasive, critized and Knocked, l
think because many do not under
stand it. The word in Hebrew is
Qudash, meaning Separated; in
Greek Hagios, meaning Sacred
ness and Webster says it's spec
ial word which recognizes and de-
clares sacred, one who is dedicated
to the service of God with saint
ly atmosphere and religious puri-
ty.
Holiness is clean Living, clean
conversation, clean habits, right
motives, decent morals and sancti-
fication. Holiness is Gods plan for
man to live by from the beginning
of the world thus says the scrip
lures, Thess. 4:3, For this is the
will of God, even your sanctifica-
ton; that We should abstain from
fornication." 7th verse, For God
hath not called us unto uncleannes,
but unto holiness"
Having therefore these prom
ises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse
ourselves from all filthiness of the
flesh and spirit, perfection holiness
in the fear of Cod" II Cor. I'll.
st. Luke 1873 says, THE oath
which he swore unto our father
Abraham IA, that he would grant
unto us, that we being delivered
out of the hand of our enemies
might serve Him without fear"
and verse rs, I'm holiness and
righteousness before him, all the
DAYS of our life"
You are asking yourself how can
this be done, or how can / live
holy in this sinful world. Think
with me, if you wanted to be a
professional person wouldn't you
associate with people of that pro-
fession. Well to be holy or to learn
how to live holy, is to associate
with those who believe it can be
done and listen to gospel preach
ing. Now if you are interested in
doing what God wants you to do,
read Roman 1889; list John 1:9.
You don't want to leave this world
unholy because the God you will
meet on the other side is holy, his
heaven, his angels, his servants and
all that he accepts is holy. So
think Of this and prepare to meet
thy God.
The radio message delivered last
Sunday, August 2, by Rev. w. Le-
ROY Battle.

Keafing Defends Ike's
Rncinl Attitude

Washington (ANP) - Sen. Ken
meth Heating (R., N.Y. recently
attacked ex-New York Gov. Aver
ell Hartman for stating that
President Eisenhower had not
stood up on the issue of school
segregation.
He said he found it hard to be-
lieve that Gov. Hartman had really
become so divorced from reality
and so little informed on facts that
he could have made such a state
ment without some inner qualms
The New York Republican furth-
err stated he didn't believe the
speakers audience - the annual
NAACP convention, would accept
this political-cartoon version of
the facts at face value"
Ike Has Done Much
Heating praised Mr.. Eisenhower
for doing more enthusiastically to
advance the cause of equal rights
for all Americans than any other
President in history. He spoke of
the administrations bill before
congress as a program including
an explicit endorsement of the in
tegration decision of 1854 as the
supreme law of the land"
In his speech on the Senate
floor, Heating declared that chose
who claim to be for civil rights, but
expend their energies on criticiz-
ing the President, would do far
more to advance the cause of civil
rights, were they to study the ad-
ministration program and use their
influence with their friends to get
behind a program that means
something rather than an ILL
usion of civil rights program"
Heating admitted the ground
has been laid for pushing a token
bill through Congress.
ANY such measure would be a
fraud on the American people who
look to Congress for meaningful
action to assure to each child in
this country the rights vouchsafed
by the Supreme courts school de-
cision."
