compulsory open shop pro-
posal was voted by the local
lodge to which these men
belong, by their district lodge
and by the California Confer
ence of MachinistS. The two
men were fully aware of
their unions position.
Subsequently, both men
appeared on televiSion and at
public meetings vigorously
campaigning against the un-
ion shop and for the compul-
sorry open shop. In their cam
paign the two men took pains
to identify themselves as
members of the International
Association of Machinists.
The charges against the
two men were brought by
members of their own local
lodge. A trial committee COM
posed of members of their
own local was appointed by
their local president. This
local committee conducted
the trial at which both men
had full right of defense and

The findings and recon-

a majority of the local lodge

voted to approve the report.
A separate vote upheld the

The two expelled member

Disputed Tract

Let us hope that the Mont
gomery County Council does
not yield to political pressure
and vote to rezone the land
next to the Silver Spring Ii
brary from residential to high
density apartments. This de-
velopment is vigorously op-
posed by the Evanswood Citi-
zens Association and the
Woodside Citizens Associa-
ton. In the near future, other
citizens associations will
doubtless take a stand against
1t.
Not only would such a huge
apartment clash with the
ong-established residential
use of the neighborhood, it
would create a traffic hazard
near the library, imperiling
children from the entire
Silver-Spring- Wheaton area
who use the library.
This same tract has figured
in many Silver Spring zoning
fights. Its owners, who SEEM
ingly believe they have the
right to be enriched at their
neighbors' expense, concocted
the recent abortive scheme to
have the land sold to Mont
gomery County as the site for
a police station. So unworthy
and inappropriate was that
use that, in two tries before
the Montgomery County
Council, not a single member
of the Council voted in favor
of it.
Now, seeking once again to
make a killing" on the land,
the owners seek to foist a
huge apartment upon the
northumberland upon the
whole body of citizens Of
Montgomery County by spoil
ing the appearance Of the
Silver Spring library and i'm
pairing its use for library
purposes.
For the Montgomery Coun-
ty Council to rezone this land
from residential to high den-
sity apartments would vio-
late an express pledge in the
1858 Democratic Party plat
form, under which all pres
ent members of the Council
were elected.
The 1858 Democratic plat
form contains the following
plank:
In order to prevent undue
harassment of neighborhoods,
we believe that zoning appli-
cations which have been twice
denied should be required to
wait three years before a
further application may be
fled"

THIS AND THAT
By CHARLES E. TRACEWELL
1t has all happened before.

1t has all happened before.
The poetic soul knows this
for a surety, and the math-
ematical, or factual soul, as
he may be called, knows it
as a fact.
The young people get
themselves into fixes Just
as kittens do, sticking their
heads between the banis-
ters.
The situation seems bad,
but when a small cat head
slips out as easily as 1t went
in, everybody laughs.
Most young girls have
enough common sense to re-
alize, even before they lose
youth, that being young is
marvellous.
Even its sorrows are tinged
with laughter.
The youngsters ordinarily
like to have the hair flowing
over the shoulders, in the
typical teen-age bob.
Now and then you see
some child who fancies that
a big knot at the back of the
head makes her look older
and more important.
Older, certainly
More important-well, to
whom?
At the other end of the
scale is the older woman who
wants to make herself look
young.
She usually meets the
laughter of her own age
group. This thing of divid-
ing human beings into age
groups came into full flower
with the modern checking
machines, but it is as old as
the pyramids.
1t is bad. in one sense,
probably good in another, be-
cause it makes for uniformity
Of purpose. ave are not quite
sure what we mean by that,
but it should be goodO Per-
sons who are old, ought to
act old. Certainly young
people ought to have their
fling, including plenty Of nom
sense, swing, and super.
swing, even rock-and-roll,
which we hear is going out,
but we hope it doesn't.
We advise our correspond
ent to forget about the girl,
let her alone, and she will
come out of it in time, when
she realizes for herself that
she is short-changing herself
in a wonderful commodity
she will never have again.

ELM STREET.

ELM STREET.
Dear Sir:
There is a young woman
in our Office who would be
pretty if she didn't insist on
wearing her hair and dressing
like an old lady.
"She can't be a day over
20, but she seems all of so
years of age as she goes
about her daily tasks.
81 have tried to get her to
do her hair in a youthful
style, but she just grins.
What can you do with a
girl like that?
1T seems such a shame to
me, when youth comes but
once, to see her throw hers
away so lightly.
Sincerely, MARY JANE L. !"
This is another Of these
cases in which the only an
Swer is:
You can do nothing.
In many such cases, the
young person involved finds
herself in a group consid-
erably older than herself.
She thinks that by emulat-
ing her elders she will get
ahead faster, and who knows,
she may be right.
In the meantime, youth
takes a terrific beating.
Every generation discovers
the world anew.
Each age group makes the
world over again to it's own
image.
The old folks are forced
out, by nature and laws,
written and unwritten, so
that the young things can
have their chance.
Surely anyone who has
passed the age so, a sort of
dividing line, knows that be-
ing young is the best of all.
The sorrows of the young
never seem quite real to older
people.
Many stories have been
written telling of the sad
plights young people get
themselves into. The older
reader doesn't laugh, but he
Is not impressed.
Somehow he knows that
though the thoughts of youth
are long, long thoughts, as
the poet told us, still they
are thoughts-in-progress.
That is, they will be re-
placed by older and better
thoughts, one feels quite sure,
and in time the sufferer,
looking back, will wonder
why he was so upset.

THE POLITICAL MILL
Morton Predicts q United G. O.P.
By GOULD LINCOLN

Repu blican National
Chairman Thruston B. Nor
ton, Senator from Kentucky,
frankly admitting that the
Republican Party is a minor
ity party today, has said the
two essentials for G. o. P.
victory at the polls next
November are first, good can
didates, and second, good
organization. He predicted
the party will have both
during a television broadcast,
Meet the Press" on Sunday.
He and his committee are
seeing to it that the G. o. P.
is organized from the pre-
cinct ground roots up. He is
confident that the party will
have good candidates for both
President and Vice President
and for congressional posts,
candidates who will appeal to
the people as a whole and to
the people in States and con-
gressional districts. He point
ed out that the G. o. P. has
had two victories in the last
eight years for President and
Vice President, and has won
one congressional election,
though it lost the last three.
Senator Morton expressed be-
lief that the G. o. P. can and
will make gains in the Senate
and that it can win control
Of the next House.
The chief problem of the
Democrats-and this did not
come from Senator Morton
is the selection Of a presiden-
tial candidate who can hold
the Democratic Party togeth-
er, and particularly can hold
onto the labor vote and the
Negro vote and the farm vote
in proportions similar to the
votes given by those groups
to President Franklin D.
Roosevelt. They were unable
to find such a candidate to
run against President Eisen-
hover. So far, they have not
been able to settle on a man
who appears to appeal to all
these groups. Furthermore,
the Democrats are plagued by
divisions between the North
and South wings of the party
and by scandals in the gov
ernments of two big cities,
New York and Chicago, both
controlled by Democrats.
Needed Show Of Strength
Republican National Chair
man Morton also gave as
surances that the New York
Republican organization
would be in there fighting to
carry the State for Vice Pres
ident Nixon if Mr.. Nixon is
the party nominee, as now
expected. This would include
support of the ticket by Gov.
Nelson A. Rockefeller. The
assurance had come, he said.
from New York's National
Committeeman, George G. L.
Hinman, right-hand man of
the Governor. Gov. Rookie
feller has said nothing pub
licly so far about Mr.. Nixon
since he (the Governor)
withdrew from the race for
the presidential nomination.
Replying to a questioner,
Chairman Morton said it was
conceivable Gov. Rockefeller
would get back into that race
If Vice President Nixon
should stub his toe in the
next few months. 1t was the
chairman's stated opinion,
however, that he did not be-
lieve Mr.. Nixon would do
any toe stubbing. Gov.
Rockefeller, he said, had
withdrawn from the race
when he found by his own
and other polls that the rank
and file Republican voters
would support Mr.. Nixon.
Evening star., 1960-02-02

1t was clear from the start
that Gov. Rockefeller would
have to demonstrate his vote
getting strength to win the
presidential nomination
against Mr.. Nixon-and the
only real test lay in the pres
idential primaries, held in 16
States and the District Of
Columbia. The reluctance Of
the New York Governor to
say today he supports Mr..
Nixon for President appar-
emily stems from a lingering
hope that the political cli-
mate may shift by the time
OF the COP. national con-
vention in July in a manner
unfavorable to Mr.. Nixon.
Chairman Morton's assur-
ance that the New York Re-
publicans, including the Gov
ernor, will go down the line
for Mr.. Nixon if the latter
is nominated should relieve
fears that a possible and
serious rift in the party is
in the making.
Shows Grasp of Problem
The Republicans, Senator
Morton has demonstrated,
made no mistake when they
turned to him to serve as the
party's national chairman.
During the broadcast on
Sunday, he showed a grasp
of the problems which con-
front his party. And he re-
piled with clarity to ques-
tions dealing with the Dem
ocratic cry, lack of national
defense" He fatty denied
the suggestion that the Re-
publican voters were being
given no choice for the pres
idential nomination, point
ing out that any one who
wished, including Gov.
Rockefeller was at liberty
to challenge Vice President
Nixon, either in the presi-
Dental primaries or in the
national convention. The
fact that none has appeared
to make the challenge, he
said, could be construed only
as meaning Mr.. Nixon was
favored by a majority of Re-
publlcanS, a big majority.
Chairman Morton, dis
cussing the difference be-
tween the Republican and
the Democratic parties, said
that the Republicans stand
for the right and duty Of
State and local govern
mentS to deal with many Of
the problems of their peo-
pie, while the Democrats
insist that progress can be
made only through the in
strumentality of the Fed
eral Government in Wash
ington. This is another way
OF saying that the Repub-
licans believe in spending by
the local and State govern
ments for the services the
people require, rather than
spending by the Federal
Government. Bigger and big
ger Federal Government, as
proposed by the Democrats,
can only bring bigger and
bigger spending by the Fed
eral Government, which in
turn means bigger and bigger
bureaucracy-all done with
money taken from the pock-
cts of the people.
The Republican chair
mans aim is to build a
strong and united party
which, as he pointed out,
can be done through organ
ization. With that kind Of
organization and with the
issues favoring the COP.
as Senator Morton asserts
they are, he looks forward
to victory in November.

Workers meet here today to
settle any remaining differ

Details of the settlement,
which needs approval by the
union membership, were not
announced. But the Baltimore
Sun said it includes a 25-cent
hourly increase spread over
three years.
A Bethlehem spokesman said
the two Baltimore area ship
yards would be open today for
strikers to return to work. But
a union official said picket
lines will remain until the con-
tract is finally approved.
The 21-year-old strike of IT,
900 workers closed eight Beth
lehem yards along the East
Coast, including the Quincy
(MasS.) facility, which had
been working on the nuclear
cruiser Long Beach and the
nuclear destroyer cambridge.
The strike, which halted
work on an estimated half
billion dollars worth of Navy
shipping, was marked by
charges, countercharges and a
lawsuit. Some picket violence
occurred in the early stages of
the dispute.
The union walked out last

Deported Man
Loses Right 10
Social Security

The Supreme Court ruled to-
day that paying into social Sc
curity does not give Americans
an irrevocable right to draw
retirement benefits.
In a sharply divided 5-4
opinion. the high court ruled
the Government had a right
to cut of retirement checks
to a former Communist who
was deported to his native
Bulgaria.
The court majority rejected
the claim of the one-time Com
muniSt, Ephriam Nester, that,
having paid into the social Sc
curity fund. he could not be
deprived Of his retirement
benefits.
The Justice Department. in
arguing the case, held that
paying social security tax does
not guarantee that retirement
payments will be received when
the payer become eligible.
Due Process Noted
The Supreme Court agreed
with an important qualification
If a worker is arbitrarily de-
prived Of social security bene-
fits. he may find protection
under the constitutional guar
antee of due process of the
law, the majority held.
Justice Harlan, who wrote
the majority opinion, rejected
the contention Of Mr.. Nestel
that he was being punished
for his past membership in the
Communist Party.

however, that there was {
punitive intent in the law in
