Enclosed is my check for $500
in payment for two years sub
scription to the Sidney Herald.
You have so kindly been mailing
me your paper even though it
was past due, but as we sub
scribe to 8 local papers, I'd en-
tertained the idea of dropping
yours. However, when you pub
lished such a letter as Math Das-
myers, I vacillated no longer.
I'm for free speech and endorse
his ideas whole heartedly. The
question always reoccurs in my
mind. Why do Farmers Union
members become so angry when
accused of Communist infiltra-
ton? If they have a clear con-
science, they shouldn't be an
noyed by a little talk, BUT per-
hapS "this pinches and so they

A Silver Spring couple who
has Just lost another round in
| a court fight to gain custody Of
la 3-year-old boy will appeal
the case for the second time
to the Maryland Court of APP
peals.
Attorneys for Mr.. and Mrs
Lloyd r. Crump said the ap-
peal will be based on the claim
that Montgomery County well
fare authorities "subverted the
Jurisdiction" of the Montgom-
cry County Circuit Court by
rushing the child into the
hands of welfare officials OF
another county.
Judges who heard the case
criticized Montgomery welfare
officials for their handling of it
The judges called the welfare
boards quick action "heartleSs'
and badly handled"
The Crump's lawyers vii,

petent to stand trial, although
he also had been diagnosed an
suffering from a mental dis
ease. At a habeas corpus
action last month a District
Court judge ordered Lynch
freed on grounds he was being
illegally detained.
U. s. Asks for Stay
The Government asked for a
stay while it appealed.
Mr.. Dunie argued today that
the Municipal Court rules per-
NIT a judge to refuse to accept
plea of guilty.
But Judge Henry w. Edger-
ton disagreed. If a man is
able to stand trial as Lynch
was. he is able to decide
whether he should plead guilty
and be permitted to, the judge
said.
A guilty plea, ACUL, Attor-
ney Richard Arens argued to-
day, may be induced "by the
desire of avoiding publicity
the involvement of next of kin,
either as witnesses or as tar
gets of criminal proceedings
and perhaps the very jeopardy
of economic livelihood of an
entire family"
A man has a right to plead
guilty, to avoid indefinite con-
f1nement, under humiliating
conditions and to avoid the
stigma of a formal adjudica-
ton of insanity" Mr.. Arens
said.
If a defendant can be denied
the right of not using the de-
fense of insanity ''the lifelong
liberty of every citizen brought
into court upon the basis of q

BUT THE RAMBLER DID

BUT THE RAMBLER DID
finally get through his head
the way the battle progressed
on the first day July /,
1859 and on the second and
on the bloody third day when
the Confederacy reached its
high water mark in Pickett'S
charge.
We started out by hearing
a tape-recorded lecture on
the battle, illustrated by an
enormous electric map.
Until then, the Rambler
had not realized that so
much of the action (all that
of the first day. was north of
Gettysburg.
So we went to Chambers
burg road north of the town
and saw where the battle
started. Here much of the
land is owned by the county
adams. The county in
cludes the Home for the
Aged, which used to be called
the Poor Farm. A medical
building is now under con-
Struction there and several
years ago the county jail
was erected on adjoining
property.
Mr.. Allen seemed to feel
that a jail and even a medi-
cal building were out of place
on such an important bat

Zeckendorf
Firm Asks
No Financing

William zeckendorf, jr., ex-
ecutive vice president of the
real estate firm of Webb &
Knapp, today said the firm will
"go it alone" in financing con-
struction of it's Southwest ur-
ban renewal projects but may
sell them after they are built.
Recent news and magazine
stories, detailing Webb &
Knapp's critical need for cash
to support its sprawling real
estate empire, intensified spec
ulation that the firm might
take in additional investors in
its Washington urban renewal
projects.
Last week William L. Slay-
ton, head of Webb 81 Knapp's
Washington Office, said such
discussions were underway with
local investors. He said the
discussions had not reached the
formal negotiation stage. But
today Mr.. Zeckendorf said
Webb & Knapp has enough
capital for its Washington
work.
Webb and Knapp currently
is we'll along on its Town Cen
ter project at Fourth and NJ
streets S.W. consisting of four
apartment houses and two
shopping centers. The firm also
is slated to build town houses
in the Southwest north of the
Town Center. A third project
lplanned for the Southwest is
a complex of Office buildings,
hotel and communications cen
ter on 20 acres bounded roughly
by the Washington Channel,
Independence avenue, Twelfth

has more money tied up in its

projects than in any venture in

WE LEARNED that none
of $45O,OO0 appropriated by
Congress to protect the Get
tysburg and Bull Run bat
tlefields from encroachment
has been made available for
Getty burg. The Adams
County Commissioners prefer
to have the land on the tax
rolls-private property. So.
they have not qualified the
area for Government pur-
chase by passing zoning reg
ulations required by Con-
gress.
Then we went to Seminary
Ridge, southwest of the town,
which was the Confederate
jumping off place and not
to be confused with Gene
terry Ridge, which is across
the dale and was defended
by the Union forces.
Civil War artillery is lined
up on both ridges but be-
tween them is a housing de-
velopment known as Cole
Park. Other areas of the bat
tlefleld are privately owned
and may be developed.
In the summer of 1858 a
score or more of history fans
came to Gettysburg and
studied the battlefield for a
week under Frederick Til
berg of the National Park
Service. who is a doctor OF
philosophy in history. They
lived in the dormitories OF
Gettysburg College, an old
Lutheran institution, and
had a wonderful time. Last
summer there were 40 of
them. Next month the third
Civil War Study group is ex-
pected to be even larger.
1t was out of this study
group that the Gettysburg
Battlefield Preservation AS
Sociation was formed. The
members have purchased one
30-acre tract for $4,000. 1t
will be given to the Govern
ment.
Like Marshal Montgomery
at the Battle of the Bulge,
they hope, by the time the
centennial rolls aroun d
(July, 1859, to have the bat

But he does what he can to

welcome there, for her father
has never put plants above

He grows some flowers. But
mainly he grows vegetables
lettuce, tomatoes, beanS-that
are an important part of the
family's food supply.
Carol is like a second mother

poised child has known how to
cook for years.
Her mother, a good house.
keeper, has seen to it that
things the children make at
school are proudly displayed
in their small frame home.
She wants Carol to go to
camp, as she wants all good
things for her children.
Material things are always
In short supply at Carols home.
Money for extras is out of the
question. Your gift can give
