voluntarily reached within the
industry in 1947 not to hire
subversives. The agreement, he
said. "is still, as we under.
stand it, in respectable condi-

Mr.. Kramer said he did not
sign the agreement. He added
that there is no law barring
employment of such people.
The producer repeated that he
would hire anyone he pleased
on the basis of ability. He said
only he can decide what goes

u. S. Educators Hear
Pledges on School Aid

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., Feb.
Is (AP).-School administra-
tors from across the Nation
today got a double chorus of
the music they love to hear
the pledge of Democratic con-
greSsmen to work for a strong
program of Federal aid to edu-
cation.
They heard it was urgent and
they heard it was feasible. But
only in the most guarded tones
did they hear any encourage
ment that such a program
might become law this year.
Representative Lee Metcalf,
Democrat of Montana, told the
American Association of School
Administrators in a prepared
address that "the Federal Gov
eminent is Sinking it's re-
sponsibilitieS and not paying
its just share" of the cost of
education.
Need Increasing, He Says
The classroom shortage, he
said, is more serious than ever
and the number of children in
excess Of normal capacity has
increased during the last year
from 100000 to 1,883,0O0. At
the same time, he said, the
teacher shortage has increased
from $4,000 to $4,000.
Mr.. Metcalf, who has long
plugged for a program of vast
Federal aid to education, said:
I'VE pay for education whether
we have it or not. And we pay
more for it if we do not have it.
We pay more in increased costs

A sonata sadly neglected by
present-day flddlers was the
featured work of a recital last
night at the National Gallery
Of Art by Nadia Koutzen, vio-
linist. and Richard Woitach,
pianist. The Schubert A Major
sonata is an early work, COM
posed when the master was
only 20. Each Of its four move
ments shows him at his best.
The first is a highly worked
out allegro. the second a fan
ciful scherzo with the chro-
matte scale for a trio; the
third, a serene adagio, and the
finale an exciting syncopated
movement that goes by at a
fast clip.
Miss Koutzen is a brilliant
violinist. She apparently finds
no technical difficulty in what
she plays. The loftily poetic
and evocative Leclair sonata
which opened the program, the
Schubert and the strong and
decisive Lopatnikof sonata
were all given persuasive read
ingS.
The Debussy sonata was not
so much in her style. All the
notes were there, but the half
tints were somewhat too gar
iSh, and the rhythms too
humping.
To speak of the music
making as a violin recital is
only a matter of custom, for,
with the exception of the Ravel
Tzigane, all the works were in
the purest duet manner. Mr..
Woitach was in every way a
well qualified partner of the
fiddler.

Hardy Committee Starts
Work On Code Revision

A study of a proposed
criminal code for Maryland,
slated for adoption by the
Legislature next year as a
replacement for the obsolete
common law, has been launched
by a committee of States at
torneys under the leadership of
Montgomery County prosecutor
Leonard T. Hardy.
Hardy was appointed chair
man of the committee by Bal
timore States attorney Saul A.
Harris, president of the States
Attorneys Association of Mary
land, charged with making rec
concentrations on the new code
when it comes up for legislative
approval at the 1861 session of
the General Assembly.
Serving with Hardy on the
committee are States attorneys
for five other Maryland coun-
ties. Their suggestions and
criticisms of the code will be
presented to the State associa-
ton for its consideration at it's
midwinter meeting in Feb
ruray.
Hands Out Assignments
Hardy said this week he has
requested each member of the
committee to study a specific
section of the new code as an
initial step in the program. The
individual recommendations
then will be considered by the
overall committee at a meeting
to be called, Hardy said, when
the members have had ade-
quate time to review their as
signed sections.
The Montgomery County pro-
secutor accepted his appoint
ment with enthusiasm, he said,
in view of his long-standing
feeling that there has been a
"crying need" for an adequate
criminal code for Maryland.
The common law statutes
under which crimes are prose
cuted in Maryland, he noted,
are a throwback to the archaic
common law of England, hav-
ing been provided for in the

from a trip to the Empire City.
He said the New York sys.
tenn had brought a sharp reduc.
ton in serious juvenile offenses
during the past year, with none
reported during the summer
months.
Describing this as a remark.
able achievement" Cahoon said
the New York procedures con.
sisted principally of "a mar.
shalling all private and public
youth agencies in a combined
effort to obtain summer jobs
for youths, and (2) abolishing
all summer vacations for youth
agency employees.
Although the. character and
scope of the local problem diff
fers from that in New York,
Cahoon said, the county would
be well advised to consider the
New York methods"
He suggested that the matter
be referred to the Youth Com
mission here.
In other business, the Coun-
Gil reappointed Mrs. Rita David
son to the Board of Appeals

Grand Jurors
Consider 90
Indictments

Montgomery County's grand
jury will be reconvened in Oc-
tober to consider SO criminal
presentments, States Attorney
Leonard T. Hardy announced
yesterday.
Hardy noted the list included
total of q cases of house
breaking and larceny and 10
charges of forging and uttering
and expressed concern over the
increase in such offenses in re-
cent months. He suggested that
HOUSEKEEPING might be cur
tailed if residents notify police
when they leave the county and,
at the same time, avoid leaving
"tell-tale signs such as accum-
ulated newspapers, milk bottles
and mail"
The prosecutor called for
"alertness" to forestall the
mounting wave of forgeries and
other cases involving false pre-
lenses.
In addition to those cited by
Hardy, the criminal present
ments to be considered by the
grand jury include the follow
ing:
Assault with intent to commit
murder, 5; murder, A; bigamy.
8; perjury, 8; escape, one; false
pretenses, Z; larceny, Ia; rob-
berry, 2; unnatural and perver-
ted sexual practice, one; bas-
tardy, one; narcotic violations,
5; burglary, 2; rape, 3, and
arson, one.
An estimated 249 witnesses
have been summoned to testify
before the panel.
