RICHMOND, Va, July 9 (AP)
"A second Virginia judge has
ruled the States 1860 Sunday
sales law died by legislative re-
peal.
Corporation Court Judge S.
Duval Martin of Lynchburg yes
terday ruled the law was void
because it was an amendment
to a section of the old criminal
code subsequently repealed at
the same session of the General
Assembly
Circuit Judge Frank A. Kear-
ney had ruled similarly We'd
nesday at Hampton.
While the two court decisions
are binding only in the two
cities, authorities in some other
localities have said they will
hold off enforcement of the new
law pending a final ruling by
the Virginia Supreme Court.
In some other localities
merchants have obtained tenn
porary injunctionS barring ems
forcement. In one such case,
Richmond Hastings Judge M.

sales of foods. for humans and
pets.
The controversial new blue
law banned Sunday sales of
specific items, including foods
generally inedible wit hout

Some items specifically were
exempted.

Talks Possible
On Glen Echo
Segregation
Amusement Park
Official Declares
Well Negotiate

The operators of the Glen
Echo Amusement Park and the
leader of a group of demon
strators protesting segregation
at the park said today they are
willing to negotiate.
Samuel Baker, secretary
treasurer of the corporation
which runs the amusement CEN
ter, said, well negotiate with
anybody to try to solve the
problem.
But Laurence Henry, the
Howard University divinity stu
dent who has been spokesman
for the demonstrators, said he
has been trying to get in touch
with Mr.. Baker, or his brother,
Abraham. to hold a meeting
and has been unable to do so.
He said he though a meeting
might be set up today. Samuel
Baker yesterday apparently
tried reaching Mr.. Henry by
phone and asked that the
groups leader contact him.
Connections Missed
Mr.. Henry said he has been
trying to see either of the
Bakers while out at the amuse-
ment park but his requests have
been in vain.
Samuel Baker told a reporter
that I'VE haven't made UP our
minds yet" over action on the
situation. He said the policy to
refuse Negroes admission to
Glen Echo has been in effect
since the park opened so years
ago.
The Bakers took over Glen
Echo when the Capital Transit
Co. sold the park shortly before
the transit firm was sold in
1856.
Mr.. Henry said the picketing
will continue again today start
ing about l pm. and ending
when the park closes. He said
the demonstrations will go on
indefinitely"
Injunction Sought
Yesterday six Negroes sued
in Federal Court in Baltimore
asking for an injunction to
prohibit any further arrests of
Negroes trying to enter the
amusement park.
Nine Negroes and four white
persons were arrested during
five days of demonstrations at
the park. Most of the Negroes
were arrested by Glen Echo
Special Policeman Francis j.
Collins. who is also a deputy
sheriff for Montgomery County.
Those arrested in the park
were charged with treSpaSSing.
The defendants named in
the suit were Montgomery
County Sheriff Luke j. Ben
nett, jr., Mr.. Collins and the
two corporations which own
and operate the park.
Last Sunday two demonstra-
tors were charged with dis
orderly conduct when the
group refused to make room
for picketing by members of
George Lincoln Rockwell's
American Nazi Party" who
sought to demonstrate against
the anti-Segregation group. In
that case the arrest was made
by Glen Echo town policeman,
Ronald H. Vine.

D. C. Transit Systems fare
increase is giving the company
a reasonable return SO far, ac-
cording to a report by the Dis
trict Public Utilities Commits
sion staff.
Under the March 6 increase,
cash fares went up from 20 to
rs cents. The price Of tokens
remained at 20 cents, but they
must be purchased in blocks
of five for 81.
In a report to the commits
sion yesterday, j. William
Falk, chief accountant, ana
lyzed the impact of the fare
rise during the period ending
last May 81. This three-month
period, he emphasized, is a rel
atiVely short one to use for
measuring the effect of the
fare increase.
Favorable Period
In addition, he said, it
should be noted that the three
months in question are IA
vorable ones from a company
earning standpoint because of
weather and lack of holidays.
Mr.. Falk added, however,
that 6. there is certainly
no basis at this time for con-
cluding that the fare increase
is not producing the return
which the commission found
was fair and reasonable" after
the company'S rate hearings.
Under the new schedule, the
company'S passenger revenue
amounted to nearly $6.7 million
for the three-month period, an
increase of close to 1924, 900, or

Congress Unit
Seeks Delay
In Mall Work
By JAMES G. DEANE
Star STAFF Writer

District officials may face
congressional questioning on the
city's refusal to postpone a
highway project threatening a
Twelfth street rail subway plan.
Capitol Hill sources today in
dicated concern over failure of
the District Commissioners to
act on a Senate-House COM
mittee request for serious con-
sideration" of a temporary halt
in work on the so-called Twelfth
expreSSway across the Mall.
The underground road prof.
ect is designed to link with the
Washington Channel crossing
and Southwest freeway, now
also under construction. But it
is in the path of a major pro-
posed subway line. Congress
has just approved creation of
an agency to try to turn the
subway plan into reality.
Conflict Feared
1t was disclosed yesterday
that Senator Morse, Democrat
OF Oregon. asked the District
Commissioners in March to
hold off completion of the
road project because of the
apparent conflict. This was
formally seconded last month
by the Senate and House Dis
trict Committees and the Joint
Committee on Washington
Metropolitan Problems, a Sem
ate-HouSe group.
City officials two weeks ago
instead ordered a speedup of
the project. They rejected the
Morse suggestion and have
made no response to the COM
action.
New questions may be
prompted by statements yes
terday by two of the archi-
tectS of the subway plan, in
formed sources indicated.
Keneth Hoover, project di-
rector for the mass transporta-
ton plan to be handed to the
new agency, said the express
way project may block the sub
way or create serious difficult
ties for it.
Robert Keith, National Plan
ming Commission planning
also said the road
project would complicate the
rail plan and would raise costs
even if it didn't block it. Mr..
Keith said the road project
will mean a tight squeeze for
rail facilities, particularly at
the Agriculture Department,
where the plan calls for a
subway station.
Found Too Costly
Congressional aides drafted
q proposal to cover over a
short completed roadway tun-
mel section and restore the
Twelfth street stretch, between
Constitution and independence
avenues, to traffic pending
firm subway developments. But
officials rebuffed this
rs too costly.
Actually, proponents of CO.
,rdinating the subway and
'oad projects said that con-
the present project
nay turn out to be far costlier.
Congressional sources and
planners also questioned the
Urgency of the roadway, point
ng out that a twin tunnel on
Ninth street, designed to carry
lalf the former Twelfth street
,raffic. is not yet even sched-
lied for construction.
The new three lane Twelfth
street tunnel is intended only
or northbound cars. Virginia.

'oSed to use the Ninth street

Soudek on TV

Robert Saudek, creator Of Omnibus
and the Leonard Bernstein series,
spoke in San Diego recently on THE
Care and Feeding of Adult Tele-
vision" Here are few excerpts in
a satiric vein.
Theme: If TV had been there to
record other periods Of history, what
would we know about those times?
Instead Of Euripides we'd know
only of parental interference with
teen-age dates; II Sophocles expected
to write for TV, "Oedipus Rex" would
have to undergo minor changes. A
happy ending for instance, wherein
he and Jocasta would live happily
ever after. The Trojan War
would turn into an adult Eastern,
with Helen as a winSome barmaid
and Menelaus the misery old rancher
with the rowing eyes. Good casting
would demand that they see If Steve
Mcqueen will accept the role Of
Paris, to give the whole thing little
marquee-value, and the Trojan horse
would be played by Trigger :"
Anything like Gutenberg and his
printing press is OK for O'Clock
Saturday mornings, in a low-budget
stanza along with the other educa-
tional jazz. Besides, Gutenberg
doesn't have that star-quality, that
old commercial aroma you can smell
a furlong away. Also, let's face it:
This press has limited interest. So
he can print the Bible. So what else
is new?
Nov in good Queen Bess' glorious
time, you would have a different
picture entirely, saleswise. You've
got Raleigh inventing tobacco, a
natural for sponsorship. You've got
the image Of Sir Francis Drake to
be changed. You underline his bowl
