Prepare For Winter
Tractor Driving

Now is the time to winterize
your tractor and spend a minute
reviewing the hazards facing the
winter tractor driver" advises
William H. Henderson, county ag-
ricultural agent More than 1900
farmers died in tractor accidents
in 1858. Most of them were caused
by tractor tip-overs.
Statistically speaking, the win
ter months do not account for the
majority of tractor accidents, but
care must be taken to make sure
you are not victim of tractor
accident this winter.
Agricultural engineers at the
University of Delaware say: Use
clutch and brake arefully-clean
ice and snow off pedals and soles
of boots. Be sure foot is set firm
ly on pedal.
Clean the plaeforms-ice and
snow should be cleared from plat
forms, steps, axles, and other
points used for footing when
mounting the tractor.
Warm up tractor in the open to
avoid being overcome by carbon
monoxide. If you must warm up
the tractor indoors, open windows
and doors for maximum ventila-
tion. Carbon monoxide doesn't
smell, it does kill, Mr.. Henderson
added.

Armed Forces Larger
Part Of the decline in the
1894 group nationally is due
to the coming Of age of the
small depression crop of babies.
Statisticians also pointed out
that the armed forces are much
larger now than in 1850, and
that those serving are not
counted in the middle-age
bracket.
The 1860 census undoubtedly
will show that the number of
District citizens who have gone
to the suburbs is higher than
20 per cent, experts said. They
pointed out that the 20 per cent
loss in the 1874 group repre-
sents the difference between
those who have moved out as
against those who have moved
in.
Maryland as a whole gained
8.8 per cent in the 1874 age
group. while Virginia gained
1.8 per cent. Maryland at last re-
port had 1,059,000 in this group
and Virginia had l,346,000.

Washingtonians would perish
in ballistics missile attack,
District Civil Defense Director
John E. Fondahl acknowledged
today.
But he insisted their chances
of survival could increase if
Congress is willing to risk
Federal and local spending to
bolster defense planning.
Col. Fondahl was replying to
a verbal blast leveled on the
Senate floor yesterday on
Nationwide Civil Defense pro-
grams.
Senator Stephen M. Young,
Democrat of Ohio, charged that
millions of dollars had been
wasted on Civil Defense in
American cities, including the
District.
The program is "outmoded
and obsolete" he said. Neither
evacuation nor shelters could
save city. dwellers who he
noted, would have five minutes
warning of the approach of an
Ilntercontinental missile.
He urged a sweeping reap
praisal of Civil Defense and
asked Congress to turn down
Federal Civil Defense Director
Leo A. Hoegh's request for SGT
million this year.
I'VE need look no further
than here in Washington for
an example of public funds in
this area" Senator Young said.
Col. Fondahl admitted Wash
ington defense planning had
been plagued by major shifts
of policy designed to keep pace
with modern weapons.
Right now, there is no known
system of warning against mis-
isle attack" he said.
Such bitches in planning are
not reasons for abandoning the
program. but simply difficulties
70 overcome, Col. Fondahl main
tanned.

A seven-year plan for pro-
viding the District with more
parking spaces was formally
approved yesterday by the Mo-
tor Vehicle Parking Agency.
It includes construction Of a
$5.1 million underground ga
rage for 1000 autos at Twenty
first and E streets. NV. and
three more fringe parking lots.
Total cost of the program will
be $7.6 million, 1t will come
from the agency's $2.5 million
surplus and the 81 million an
nual revenue from parking
meters and lots.
The plan was first presented
to members of the agency last
month by William D. Heath,
staff director. 1t is the first
time the group has had sucn
"a long range schedule, Mr.
Heath said.
The agency had already COM
mitted itself to purchase the
land for the underground ga
rage, which will be built in
three sections starting in fiscal

The Census Bureau said the
1919 per cent decline in the

District compared with one
half of one per cent for the
entire country. There was no
way to compare the decrease
here with that of other major
cities, but experts said similar
trends are occurring elsewhere,

matically.

BY JOHN A. GILES
Star STAFF Writer

Representative Landlord,
Democrat of Maryland, today
formally requested an investi-
CATION of the Nays refusal to
release a survey on the poten-
tialities of the Naval Gun Fac
tory.
In a letter to Chairman Moss
of the House Government Oper-
atoms Information Subcommit-
tee. he said the rejection of his
request for a document "is an
other fragrant example of deny
ing not only the public but
Congress information which I
believe is essential to the form
alization of correct decisions.
Saying he was certain the
document did not contain any
classified information, Mr..
Landlord added that he could
not accept "the hastily affixed
designation internal admins
trative document"
Reviewing the hearing Of the
House Armed Services Investi-
cations Subcommittee during
which the future of the factory
was discussed at length, he said
that the survey was freely"
circulated among Navy officers
and top civilian personnel at
the plant prior to that time.
"As I am sure you can ap-
preciate, l have come to know
the Gun Factory quite well
during the past four years, as
a considerable portion of the
Gun Factory's fine skilled en-
ployes are residents Of my

Landlord wrote.
