A little girl whose mind is
slow, Jane sits and looks out
the window like 6 spent old
lady.
There are many things she
could do if someone took the
trouble to, bring her out.
No one tries.
Jane Is nine. Her younger
sister, who has average intelli-
gence. gets all the attention.
Jane needs it more, but her
home is poor in many things
besides money. One of them is
understanding.
In many ways, camp would
be the ideal place for a little
/ girl like Jane. She would not
be faced with intellectual de-
Imands. Instead, she could spend
her time in swim m ing, in
games, in absorbing the green
world she doesn't know exists.
Camp would be an escape
from the vacuum that is her
home. It could be also an ave-
nue. Of hope, for it would show
her that she does not have to

Senator Monroney is an

It's easy to tell a Govern

a prominent American author
declared today.
Vance Packard. author Of the
best-selling book, THE Status
Seekers" describes the marks
Of a climbing Federal worker
in this way:
First, he graduates from an
open room to an Office with a
half partition. Then. If all goes
well. he advances to a better
job in an Office completely

Sometimes. Mr.. Packard
added. you can even tell his

at the paneling. II it's walnut.
he's really in. If It's oak. he's
still one step from the top.
Mr.. Packard. scheduled to
speak to the American Book
sellers Association at the
Shoreham Hotel later today
thinks Washington's "the big
gest company town in the
country"
As such, it is forced to rely
on the Government for both
jobs and prestige, Mr.. Packard
said. But unlike other company
towns, such as Hollywood
tmovies) and Rochester team
eras). Washington is more
gregarious.
There's more straininf
here" he noted. "Socializine
becomes a feverish and codifiet
chore."
With the growth OF bureauc-
racy. he added. the Government
has come to treat workers o.
job descriptions, rather thar
personalities.
Like business and big labor,
he said. "the Government
stresses more awareness o.
rank"
Class Structure
The result. according to Mr.
Packard, is a tendency Of thu
lower echelons to feel isolated
producing in some a mile
mental illness. Civil Service haI
helped bring about such con
ditions. he charged, and indeed
has contributed to making
American class structure NOR
rigid.
Government workers, Ii.
others, fall into five mali
classes. he said. From top II
bottom they are:

and Cabinet members.

A tax-exemption bill that

other lap of It's speedy race
through Congress, despite OPP
position of the Board of Com

The legislation was opposed
by city heads at q Senate sub

by Senator Frear, Democrat Of
Delaware. Passed by the House
last week. the bill would ex-
empt IS presidential APP

The
Rambler
Looks in
On Great Debate
BY GEORGE KENNEDY

How disappointing this
must be to the tourist, the
Rambler thought as he tried
TO make himself comfortable
In the Senate Press Gallery
Friday afternoon.
He had stopped by to see
what kind of a show the
debate over the nomination
of Lewis Strauss as Secretary
Of Commerce was making.
He was not surprised. He
has attended these great
debates" before, and they do
have a way Of dragging at
times-hour after hour.
They have their high mo-
ments, too, and that's what
the reporters (who are paid
for keeping an eye on the
show wait for. But the
tourist doesn't nave time to
wait. He has other things to
see, or rather, she has. There
were many more women
than men in the visitors
galleries, and that's not
unusual.
Five Senators on the
floor" said a reporter in the
gallery. "One reading, three
sleeping and one talking"
That was unfair. None was
sleeping-but the count was
right.
That is the first disap-
pointment the tourists expe-
rience. They want to see their
Senators. They are furnished
with a seating chart, but the
chances are that the seats
they are interested in are
empty.

Two boys from Montgomery

was reported missing from a
rowboat as high winds churned
the Chesapeake Bay area into
q choppy sea yesterday.
Those drowned were Clark

nue.. Bethesda.
Reported missing and feared
drowned was Franklin B. Hill.
l59, of Dowell. Calvert County.
Md. His boat was found washed
ashore near Drum Point. Md.
Rough water also was blamed
for a freak accident Saturday
night which caused a veteran
fishing boat captain to lose his
left foot. The foot became en-
tangled in the anchor chain
as a high wave lifted the boat
up from the water near Point
Lookout, Md.
More than so other persons
were reported saved from boats
which either capsized. swamped
or broke down in the wind
swept bay water.
Winds of 80 to 40 miles an
hour whipped the bay area
throughout the day. They still
were reported strong today.
The Coast Guard at Annapolis
said storm warnings were still
posted, with winds today re-
ported at about % miles an
hour.
Boats Helped Here
Washington Harbor police re-
ported going to the rescue or
eight boats buffeted by the high
winds in the choppy water at
low tide In the Potomac River
here. Six motorboats had their
engines swamped and tovs were
given to a Sailboat and a canoe
which lost way against the sea-
wall. The gusts Of wind were
reported as high as IS m.p.h.
More than 40 distress calls
were received by the Coast
Guard from boats in trouble in
the bay. Coast Guard patrol
boats from Annapolis. Crisfield
and Baltimore were kept busy
from dusk Saturday, and re-
ported saving more than so per-
sons from stricken boats.
Also busy were patrol boats
of the Maryland Tidewater
Fisheries Commission and Navy
patrol boats from the Patuxent
River Naval Air Station.
Cruiser Goes Aground
Among boats in distress was
the 21-foot cabin cruiser of
Ernest Sherman of 6003 Quin-
tana street, Riverdale. which
went aground off Drum Gifts,
st. MaryS County, in the Pa
tuxent River area. He finally
waded 400 feet to shore as a
Navy patrol boat rescued two
passengers, j. M. Staymates of
6021 Quintana street, Riverdale,
and Mrs. Hazel Kenerer of
1901 Hamilton street, Rogers
Heights.
The two boys who drowned
had been visiting Long Beach
on the bay near st. Leonard
in Calvert County with their
families when they apparently
were sucked under the water
by high waves at about 2:30
pm. Maryland State police re-
ported.
The Neal boy is the son Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Lawrence r. Neal
and the other boy is the son Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Donald U. Marsh.
Both fathers are bricklayers
who were visiting the Long
