UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.
Dec. IA (AP).-The effective
United States majority of 10-1
on the United Nations Security
Council probably will dwindle to
8-3 on most votes in the new
year.
This will be the result of elec-
tions held in the General
Assembly for terms on the IL
nation Council starting January
/. The Assembly wound up its
I4th session early yesterday by
electing Communist Poland to
a council seat.
The election was the last of
three EaSt-WeSt compromises
that were among the sessions
high points. Poland and Turkey
had been deadlocked in a three
month race that ended when
the United States and the Soviet
Union agreed to let them split
the two-year term. Poland will
resign at the end of 1860, and
Turkey will finish out the term.
In addition to Poland, Ceylon
and Ecuador were elected to
succeed Canada and Panama.
Poland takes the seat. held by
Japan.
The outgoing three voted
with the United States in the
last test September 7, when
the Council overrode Soviet
opposition and voted. 10-l, to
send a subcommittee to inves-
tigate charges of Communist
intervention in Laos.

OF the incoming three, only
Ecuador can be counted on to
support the United States on
cold-war issues. Poland will
vote with the Soviet Union.
and neutralist Ceylon most
likely will abstain.
An 80 majority is just one
vote over the margin of safety.
for seven votes are needed to
pass any proposal. 1t used to
be that a l0-l vote was only
a moral victory for the United
States, since the single mega
tive vote was a Soviet veto.
But the veto was circum-
vented in the Laotian case
when Egidio Ortona Of Italy,
serving as Council president
this month, ruled that setting
up a subcommittee was a pro-
cedural matter not subject to
a veto. A majority Of the
Council upheld him.
This device can be used by
the West only when the presi-
dent will issue such a ruling.

Loses Plea
For Ruling

A petition to grant a no
tary public license to Roy
r. Torcaso, self-professed
unbeliever in God, was dis
missed Wednesday by Mont
gomery County Circuit
Court Judge Ralph G. Shure.
Judge Shure said in a four
page opinion: 1.-THE Court finds
no conflict with the United
States Constitution or the Con.
stitution Of Maryland :"
Torcaso, Wheaton resident,
contended through a battery of
lawyers that the U. S. Constitu.
ton did not require him to
state a belief in God, and that
the Maryland Declaration Of
Rights - which does - was
unconstitutional.
Judge Shure held that Tor
caso's privilege to believe in an
Almighty Being was not at
stake: rather, he ruled, 'Tn
Maryland, Article 81 of the De-
claration of Rights is a restric-
ton applicable to those who

Spanking
Backed by
Whittier

School Superintendent c.
Taylor Whittier thinks it's a
good idea for the school sys-
tenn to have a law allowing
it to spank problem children.
II would hate to be associated
with a school system that did
not have such authority" he
said on ECity Side" a television
program broadcast last Satur-
day over WTOP-Tv.
The school administrator also
said in response to a question
that he does not propose to ask
for a teachers salary hike in the
coming budget. A major boost
was granted teachers last year
by the county.
On the subject of spanking,
Whittier emphasized that he be-
lieves the chief value of such a
permissive law Is the fact that
it serves as psychological de-
terrent to some pupils.
If some badly-behaved pupils
did not know that the school
had the authority to administer
corporal punishment, he indi-
Gated, they would be extremely
difficult not impossible-to
handle.
He said he did not know
whether there had been any
cases of spanking by admins
traitors in the school system this
school year.
Whittier stressed that under
the State law, punishment may
only be administered by the
principal and then only in the
privacy Of his office.
The question was directed at
Whittier as a result of an as
sertion by Juvenile Court Judge
Alfred D. Moves on the same
TV program two weeks earlier.
Noyes had stated that he
thought 1t was a good idea for
the school system to give some
pupils an occasional smack"

men at the station win imme-
diately start supervising their
approximately 100 square miles

to Rockville.
Rough boundaries of the sta
ton: Plyers Mill I'd. on the
South, Howard County line on
Rt. 81 to the North, the Prince

and Rock Creek to the West.
Police officials expect that

will be the cOunty's biggest
within a decade as wave after
wave of suburban subdivision
marches out Georgia ave. and
Colesville rd.
Rockville station now covers
about $50 square miles, while
Bethesda has 81 and Silver
Spring has about 81.
To control his area, Capt.
Alexander will have a fleet of
four "beat' cars, four detective
cars, one accident investigation
car and two motorcycles. Other
county police cars are always
available through the Rockville
headquarters dispatcher.
The station will have eight
civilian clerks but as yet, there
are no Jail cells because of the
steel strike.
Second in command will be

Capt. Alexander was promoted

away from drive-in restaurants

The centers are the outgrowth
of Master Plan of Schools,

AS conceived, the Commission
would keep ownership and main

Recreation would operate them.
The centers would be avail.

school hours but the children
would have the centers to use
