MishandIinu
Of Browns
Views Denied
By the Associated Press

The Democratic National
Committee has denied pub
lished reports that it misrepre-
sented California Gov. Edmund
@. Browns views in announc-
ing Mr.. Browns acceptance Of
membership on the Democratic
Advisory Council.
The committee, in announc-
ing last Wednesd Gov.
Browns acceptance to serve on
the 28-member body, quoted a
three-paragraph statement by
the Governor saying he appre-
ciated the invitation to work
with the council in its effort
to make the parry more respon-
sible and responsive to the de-
sireS and needs of the people"
Coming as it did in the midst
Of Democratic National Chair
man Buffers criticism of the
party's congressional leaders as
being prone to compromise with
President Eisenhower instead
Of carrying out platform
pledges, the announcement was
interpreted as backing by Gov.
Brown for Mr.. Buffers posi-
ton.
Brown Trritated'
Since then some published
accounts have said Gov. Brown
was irritated over the timing
Of Mr.. Buffers announcement
and the manner in which 1t
was handled. They indicated
that Mr.. Butler or someone else
at Democratic headquarters
had deleted portions of Gov
Browns statement expressing
confidence the Democratic
Congress is putting together a
comprehensive record of ac-
comphshment.
Samuel C. Brightman deputy
chairman of the national COM
mittee. issued this statement
yesterday in response to in
quirieS about the published re-
ports: neither Chairman But
Ter nor myself has yet seen a
copy Of he statement which
Gov. Brown is reported to have
issued In California, nor have
we been notified of it's exist
ence by Gov. Brown or members
OF his staff. We have not had
the opportunity to read this
document, much less to edit it,
as has been reported in some
quarters.
Dutton Contacted
After earlier discussions,
the appointment of Gov. Brown
to the advisory council was fin
allied in a telephone converse
ton between the governor and
Chairman Butler on July 10.
In conformance with arrange
ments made in that CONVERSE
ton ! talked with Fred Dutton
OF the governors staff by tele-
phone on July IA and incorpor-
ated into our release the full
text of the statement by Gov.
Brown whic hwas worked out
and authorized by Mr.. Dutton
in this conversation.
Because this conversation
occurred late in the afternoon it
was decided to distribute the
release on July Is for publica-
ton in tn morning newspapers
Of July 16.
Meth Gov. Brown nor Mr..
Dutton has contacted the
chairman or myself since
then"

General Saws
BY the Ass ,clated Press

N--~ $500
A retired major general says
no enlisted men were assigned
to his home in 1857 to baby
sit, wash lingerie and dishes
and clean up after the dog.
Some men worked for him,
he said, but not on official duty.
On the contrary, they were
not ordered to report" Mai.
Gen. James r. Pierce said in
Ell PaSo, Tex, last night. "They
applied for the job and we
paid them out of our own
pockets"
A charge that Gen. Pierce
had used enlisted men as
servants was made in a letter
read to House Armed Services
Subcommittee yesterday by
Representative Kowalski, Dem
ocrat of Connecticut.
Stationed at Meade
The letter had been written
by Joseph C. Bagwell, a re-
tired Army sergeant, who lives
at 1879 Eleventh street Sc.
Mr.. Bagwell wrote he had
been employed for most of 1857
at Gen. Pierce's home in Fort
Meade, Md.
But Gen. Pierce said Mr..
Bagwell had been fired from
his Job as cook only a few days
after Mrs. Pierce hired him.
In his letter, Mr.. Bagwell
said his hours usually ranged
from 6 am. until 8 pm. If
there were parties or if Mrs.
Pierce happened to be over
playing bridge with some other
ladies'" Bagwell wrote, he and
two. other sergeants had to
work later.
Willing to Testify
Mr.. Bagwell offered to testi-
ty before Congress although
I'm, taking a chance because I
might have to go back into the
service" Gen. Pierce also said
he would be willing to testify
before Congress on the matter
Mr.. Kowalski said he had
introduced the letter to counter
Pentagon statements that high
military brass do not assign en-
listed men as servants. The
Congressman said he had re-
ceived about 500 letters from
enlisted men.
Assistant Secretary of De-
tense Charles C.. Finucane,
after hearing Mr.. Bagwell's
letter, told the subcommittee
he still knew of no instances
where officers had enlisted men
assigned as servants.

COnley Says
Real Estate
Preferred
Investment

SAN tANTONIO-A sharp up
surge of interest in real estate
investment on the part of the
public as a means of sharing in
current economic expansion was
reported here by James G. Con
ley, president of the Montgomery
County Board of Realtors.
Attending the midwinter meet
ing of the National Association
of Real Estate Boards in this city
Conley said that many of the 1000
other real estate executives from
all parts of the country report a
growing trend viewing real
estate as preferred investment
"The factor underlying this ex-
banded trend toward investment
in real estate is the growth of
the economy as a whole Conley
explained. Personal incomes
savings, and employment are ex-
pected to rise in 1859 and recent
surveys of consumer attitudes
have pointed to a growing feel
ing of confidence leading to in.
creased sales of durable goods,
including houses. Beginning in
1860, the increase in the rate of
family formulation will alignment
demand for homes, goods and
services. This development, in
turn, will step up the need for
more facilities such as factories,
offices, and stores-to provide and
distribute these items"
To assist this real estate in
vestment desire on the part of
the public, the Montgomery
County realtor said, NAREB will
place before Congress a proposal
calling for the same Federal tax
treatment of real estate invest
ment trusts as that accorded
security investment tru st s.
Through such real estate trusts
many small investors can join
together in ownership of substan.
tial property such as office build
ings or apartments and in the
sharing of resultant returns, he
explained.
However, that public interest
in this form of investment is now
discouraged because Federal
laws subject such trusts to cor
porate tax rates.

author of the book "Suburbia:

Wood is convinced that more
people live in suburbs than any

But he doesn't expect to see
this happen. IT'S too bad that
there is little inclination to con-

Normal laboratory isolation of

The Crump's position. as stated

they had prior adaptive rights to
Johnny which were buttressed by
an equity of IS months.
The welfare department, he
stated, seldom leaves Adaptable

as six months for several rea.

might become too attached to the
child; and that Investigations OF

After 2 Years Care
Couple Presses Fight
To Adopt Foster Baby

A Montgomery County cou-
pie is fighting for the right to
adopt a foster child taken
from their care after they
raised him from seven days
old to almost two years.
They appeared yesterday al
adoption proceedings before Cir.
cult Court Judge Thomas M. An.
derson. Their appearance culmi-
mated an effort of many months
seemingly fruitless at times
to adopt little Johnny, a blond
brown-eyed child.
Mr.. and Mrs, Lloyd R. Crump
of 1210S Atherton dr., Veirs Mill
Village, first saw Johnny on June
Z, 1857, their wedding anniver.
sary. He was left at their home
by the county welfare department
as a pre-adoption baby. The
Crumps were acting as foster
parents for the Welfare Depart.
ment.
When they saw him last, prior
to yesterdays hearing, he was
being driven away by welfare
department worker, one week be.
fore last Christmas.
The period between was one,
first, of hesitant acceptance on
the part of the Crllmps, who
gradually became fond of John
NY and, finally, one of parental
love.
Crump is an electronics wizard
with an ordnance laboratory do.
ing government defense work.
His income is substantial for his
wife and 11-year-old daughter,
Sharon.
Back in 1855 when it became
evident that they wouldn't have
any more children, the Crumps
tried to adopt one from the wei,
fare department. Learning there
was long waiting list, they in
stead took foster children into
their home. In all, they cared for
four before Johnny came along.
Johnny was placed with t h e
Crumps as pre-adoption child.
The Crumps knew the welfare de-
partment had rules prohibiting
them from adopting child in
their foster care.
