At Jail Hit

A Montgomery County grand
jury, which returned Ill in
dictments after a week-long
session, has criticized condi-
tions at the county Jail and
urged businessmen to guard
against bad-check artists.
In a report handed the cir
cult court yesterday, the grand
jury said the old jail is quite
inadequate and overcrowded
with many prisoners sleeping
on mats or pads in the hall
way"
The court also was told, how
ever, that the Jail, located on
the top floor of the county
courthouse in Rockville, is clean
and that the prisoners appear
to be in good health.
The caution against bad
check artists came after the
grand jury found that a major
ity of the cases it considered
during the last week involved
worthless paper.
The court was told many of
the cases considered by the
grand jury were "due to the
laxity of businessmen and
banks" in not taking these
precautions.

destroyed in a spectacular fire
last night. but it was all on
purpose.
The practice e-fighting
demonstration by the Bladens-
burg Volunteer Fire Depart
ment was in connection with
Fire Prevention Week. The
house had been condemned to
make room for the widening OF
Landover road (Route 202).
The fire, however. caused
both the parkway and Lam
dover road to become so clogged
with cars of curious motorists
that Park and Prince Georges
County police were summoned
to get traffic moving.
