NCHA Investigates
Tenant Vandalism

public housing tenants in New
York was commonplace, but
added he did not know it was
widespread here.
Members of the housing au-
thority staff said they made
regular inspections of public
housing projects and knew OF
no serious or malicious destruc-
ton Of property.
The authority ordered the
staff to make an investigation,
including a check of police and
fire reports involving damage
to public housing units, and
report back in a week with rec
concentrations. Mr.. Remon said
he would make his own inveSti-
cation.
The authority also authorized
the NCHA staff to begin con-
verting smaller units into six
bedroom units for families of
IL or more persons. Creation
OF IS such units in 1860, Is
in 1861 and 10 in 1862 is
planned by the authority.
James Ring, NCHA director
said the conversion would cost
5000 each and q loss of about
$4,000 a year in rents. He said
the housing authority probably
would. have to raise its mini
mum rents to make the con-
versions possible.

committed other destructive

MiIkCode;
Controls Kept

The District Commissioners
today approved revisions in
the city's milk code modern
izing some Of its provisions.
But they didn't eliminate some
Of the strict controls as dairy
operators here had requested.
The new regulations, effective
January 1, provide for bulk
handling of milk from the farm
to the dairy plant and continue
to require farm inspection by
District health ofdcials.
The new regulations grew out
Of q series Of conferences be-
tween representatives Of the
Maryland-Virginia Milk Pro-
ducers Association and WASH
ington area dairies who met
with District Health Depart
ment officials. ..
Chestnut Farms (Sealtest)

Gains Noted
In Alcoholic
Reforms

About three-fifths Of the
patients enrolled in the District
alcoholic clinic over the past
year have been at least tenn.
porarily rehabilitated, a special
advisory group reported yester-
day.
The fact that 800 of the
clinic enrollees were able to
stop drinking and otherwise
show psychiatric and physical
improvement over a three-to-
four month period shows "en-
couraging progress" in the
clinic program, the District
Commissioners advisory COM
mittee on the clinic stated.
The committee, headed by
DR.. Winfred Overholser, Super
intendent Of St. Elizabeths
Hospital, met in the Municipal
Court building to hear a re-
port by DR.. Jean H. Menetrez,
chief of the clinic.
Of the approximately 1000
alcoholics interviewed yearly by
the clinic staff, most are re-
Iferred by the court, Alcoholics
Anonymous and other public
and private agencies. A number
of individuals asked for help
on their own volition.
The current rehabilitation
rate means that the clinic with
its limited budget is helping its
patients at q cost of no more
than 5000 each, according to
Municipal Court Judge Edward
Beard, a member Of the con-
mittee.,
Judge Beard further pointed
out that the District ranks 18th
among 19 such clinics in bud
getary allowances. At the same
Time, ne Sald, the caSeloao OF
the clinic ranks fifth.
The implication here, the
committee agreed, is that the
clinic needs more money to
meet the caseload demand. Its
operating budget for the last
nine years has been about $70.-
900 drawn from a portion of
the Districts liquor license
fees. During the current year,
in recognition of added need,
the District Health Department
has allocated an additional
SIS, 900 to this fund.

The
Rambler
Tells q
Success Story
By GEORGE KENNEDY

Some time ago the RAM
bier was told how to write a
book. It's simple.
You take one Of the rolls of
paper that are made for the
teletype printer machines.
These rolls produce dupli-
cate copy, as they are made
from two long strips Of paper
with carbon between.
Then you take a coat
hanger, Just an ordinary wire
one. You unwind it, slip the
roll over the horizontal bar,
twist it together again.
Hang it over your type
writer and feed the paper
into it. Then start tipping.
When you have finished
the roll, you have finished
your book.
Unfortunately-or fortu-
nately the Rambler has
nothing to say that would
take an entire book to tell.
He prefers the short forrn.
These columns seem to be
just about the right length.
But, in common with most
of US, he sdmires those who
can write books.

At Hearing on KoIoromo Zoning

road NV, and Senator Salton-
stall, who once lived next door
to Mr.. Kenney, lives at 1890
Tracy place NV.
Mr.. Kenney's comments led
Commissioner David B. Karrick
to raise the question of whether
he should diSqualify himself
from voting on the rezoning
case. Mr.. Karrick who, along
with the other two Commits
sionerS are members of the
.zoning commission, also lives
in an area adjacent to the one
in question. Mr.. Karrick said
he would listen to the argu-
ment and decide the question
Of possible disqualification later.
Support for the row house
zoning came from two men who
said they planned to construct
a total Of seven town houses"
to sell from $4,000 to $97,500
in the area.
Plans BY Others
Walter Marlowe, an architect
and builder, said he would con-
struct four $97,500 row houses
in the $500 block of 8 street.
The other builder. Laurin
Brandt, said he plans to build
three $4,000 town houses in
the 1900 block of Bancroft
place.
The two men, represented by
attorney Eugene L. Goodridge,
argued that their. construction
would enhance the neighbor-
mood and produce an attractive
tax return.
In addition, Mr.. Marlowe
said. the area now is almost en-
tirely developed. and the num-
ber Of detached homes are in
the minority.

builders before the commission,
which took the case under ad-
yiseme1t, were contested vigor-

THIS is THE STORY of
an amateur who wrote,
illustrated and published her
own book which is selling so
fast that she began to make a
profit on it within a month
of publication date.
1t is also a human-intereSt
story about a bank which was
understanding and sympa-
thetic enough to finance the
books publication.
Three years ago Mrs. Flea
nor Lee Templeman'S son,
Robert Lee, came home from
seventh grade and said he
had been given an assign
ment to write the history of
Arlington County.
Mrs. Templeman started to
help him. She found two
small local histories in the
Arlington library, but they
didn't answer a lot of ques-
tionS.
She was somewhat aware
of how rich in history the
area is because she is a Lee,
q descendant of Richard
Bland Lee, who was Light
horse Harry's younger,
brother and therefore an
uncle of Robert E.
She's up on her Lees; she
is executive secretary of the
Society of Lees of Virginia.
She decided that there
should be a book-an illus
trated, up to the minute
book - on the history Of
the area. n.
She went all over the area
taking pictures with an old
fashioned folding camera
with a bellows behind the
lens.
Mrs. Templeman had had
q great deal of experience
in the production Of illus
trated pamphlets. She had
been a commercial artist with
the American Automobile
Association for several years.
