5Oth ANNIVERSARY
Mount Rainier Celebrates

A 16-year-old beauty queen,
Maryland's Secretary of State
and more than 40 senior resi-
dents of Mount Rainier, Md,
shared the spotlight last night
at the city'S golden anniversary
celebration.
An estimated 300 citizens ap-
plauded the selection of Sandy
Wilder. a junior at Northwest
ern High School, the daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Sterling
Wilder of 1913 Thirty-firSt
street, as queen of the city's
golden anniversary celebration.
She will reign over the town
dance scheduled this evening
at the Cottage City FirehouSe
and tomorrow afternoons an
niversary parade. Her court in
cludes Peggy Ashton, Patricia
Murray and Anita Pacen.
The girls and other banquet
guests at Mount Rainier Junior
High School last night heard
Thomas B. Finan, Maryland's
Secretary of State, stress the
Importance of local, State and
Federal cooperation in solving
pollution, transportation and
other growth problems.
He said the General Assem-
bly, this year set up a special
committee to study the posi-
bility of further revision of
formulas for distribution of
tax revenues between the State
and localities.
Since 1948, the amount of
revenue returned to localities
already has increased at a
spectacular rate" he declared.
More than 40 Mount Rainier
citizens who have lived in the
city at least so years were rec
ognized at the banquet. They
received special certificates.
The guests sang Aud Lang
Syne" for a retiring police
officer, Walter Scott. 66, who
left a hospital bed to attend
the banquet. He was in an
auto accident last October.

and budget funds for school
maintenance, planning and
coming, police and health and
welfare.
The employment of a con-
sultant to study the posSibil-
ity of using electronic data
processing equipment through
out the county was proposed
along with the hiring of a full
time budget director.
Urban County Plan
The organization decided to
study a resolution urging a
referendum in November on
the urban county plan.
The resolution directed the
executive committee to draw
up plans for the federation'S
active participation in a cam
paign to assure approval of the
referendum.
The urban county plan
"offers substantial protection to
the county against incorpors-
tions and annexation. II was
stated in the prepared resolu-
ton.
Both Alexandria and Falls
Church have made annexation
moves towards tax-rich sections
of Fairfax County. The board
Of supervisors has said the
urban county plan would offer
little or no protection against
annexation suits from either
city.

anything less than a full years
suspension.
Members of the Pharmacy
Board complained there have
been similar delays by the cor
poration counsels Office in
cases involving other pharm-
acistS' licenses.
Chief Corporation Counsel
Chester Gray explained that
the delay in the Feldman case
was due to number of reasons.
He said a second assistant
was given the case after the
first counsel was transferred to
other duties. For the second
man it involved examination of
a 9O0-page transcript.
On top of this, the assistant
had to set aside the Feldman
matter because of the press
of more important business
that kept cropping up during
the three and a half years it
took to draw up the final docu-
mentS.
Mr.. Gray said lack of per-
Sonnel was a delaying factor.
He denied that any pressure
was brought to bear on his
office in the Feldman matter.
He suggested that the Phar-
macy Board members should
not have waited three and a
half years before they screen
ed" If they had spoken up per-
haps after three and a half
months delay instead, he said,
it might have resulted in faster
action.
Besides Mr.. Donaldson other
members of the pharmacy
board who attended the press
conference where Albert j.
Obert, Morris H. Bortnick and
Miller j. Poppleton. A fifth
board member, Irving Sacks,
was unable to attend.

Insurance. Plan
To Be Offered

BALTIMORE, April % (AP)
M aryland d motorists with
good driving records may soon
be paying less for insurance
And those with bad records
more.
Two associations of under
writer's representing 24O in
surance companies announced
yesterday they will submit a
merit plan for approval to the
Maryland insurance commits
sioner within two weeks.
Douglass Sears, the commits
Sioner, told the Legislative
Council last year he favors
such a plan.
Details of the plan were not
made known. But the same two
underwriting organizations
have recently offered one in
Connecticut.
There, drivers with good
records are eligible for as much
as 80 per cent reduction in
the cost of their present in
Surance. Those with Door
records pay as much as SO
per cent more.
The rates vary according to
the number of accidents or law
violations accumulated by all
persons driving the same
motor vehicle.
Maryland will inaugurate a
point penalty system for driv-
erS leading to suspension of
revocation or suspension OF
licenses next year and it is
possible the insurance plan will
be tied to it.

Star Stan Writer

The District Board of Phar-
macy has accused the corpora
ton counsel'S Office of bureau
cratic inertia" in handling a
case involving the boards re-
fusal to renew a druggists Ii
IcenSe.
AT the same time, the five
member board revealed that
pressure had been exerted from
Capitol Hill on the board to act
in favor of the pharmacist.
Members of the pharmacy
board, who grant and review
all druggist licenses in the Dis
trict, told a press conference
yesterday they were contacted
by Senator Chavez, Democrat
of New Mexico, and others on
the Hill, regarding their ruling.
The case concerns Albert
Feldman, part owner of a
drug store in the 2600 block of
Connecticut avenue. The board
refused in August, 1855, to re-
new his license.
In 1852 Mr.. Feldman had
been given a years suspended
sentence and fined $500 in
District Court on charges of
dispensing ascorbic acid tablets
in place of cortisone.
Court Hits Delay
However, the Municipal Court
of Appeals this week ruled that
the refusal to renew the license
violated due process since the
board did not furnish formal
legal findings and conclusions
until three and a half years
after Mr.. Feldman's hearing
in 1855. BY then only one
member of the board that Or
iginally heard the case was still
on the panel.
Mr.. Feldman has been able
to practice pharmacy through
out the time of the case.
The board yesterday placed
the blame for the delay on
the corporation counsel's Of
flee. 1t said in a statement:

COFFEE is either in the
glut or in shortage. You
probably remember that in
the sos Brazil burned it's cof-
fee surplus-80 million bags,
which would have supplied
coffee = importing countries
for two years.
In 1854 there was a short
age. 1t was due in part to a
severe frost in a coffee
producing area in Southern
Brazil. You probably remem-
ber the prices that resulted.
Green coffee mounted to 80
cents a pound.
THE high price led to in
creased world production and
a mounting surplus was
noted in 1858. In that year,
at a conference called by
your State Department, ex-
port quotas were agreed on.
There is a big world sur
plus of production-24 mil
lion bags weighing 1872
pounds each-over what the
importing countries con-
sumo.
But the importing coun-
tries are consuming one
third more than they did
before the war. Great Brit
ain, a tea-drinking nation,
has increased its per capita
consumption from a little
over a pound to over 3
pounds. I think the popular
ity of espresso has something
to do with it.
The USA. is still the big
consumer, takes SIS per cent
of exported coffee. Despite
the weak coffee they are
drinking, they still consume
is pounds per capita. The
U.S.A. is topped only by the
Scandinavian countries,
where consumption is 18
sounds per capita"

Summoned to Meeting
Board members disclosed
that at one point they were
summoned to an emergency
meeting" with the District
Commissioners and top cor
poration counsel aides after
kilograms has been received
from Senator Chavez.
John E. Donaldson, president
Of the Pharmacy Board, de-
Scribed the meeting, held last
October, this way:
The interest of Senator
Chavez in the case was alluded
to, and the fact that he was
interested in having the case
settled at once in favor of Mr..
Feldman.
AT least one of the Com
miSsionerS intimated that the
pharmacy board should ac-
cede to the Senator's wishes,
since the District needs to look
to him and others for ap-
preparations.
Another ommissioner
stated that the board should
proceed with the case on its
merits"
Mr.. Donaldson said it was
Commissioner David B. Kar-
rick who urged the case be
handled on its merits.
Engineer Commissioner A. C,
yelling said today he had
agreed fully with Mr.. Karrick
Il guarantee that I made no
statement about acceeding> to
Senator Chavez wishes, Mr..
yelling added.
Commissioner Robert E. Nc
Laughlin said yesterday he has
no independent recollection of
who said what"
Data Asked, Refused
Mr.. Donaldson said that, as
early as January, 1855, the
Pharmacy Board received a let
ter from William P. Gulledge,
counsel for the Senate District
Committee, requesting a COM
plete record in the Feldman
caSee. The pharmacy board
member said, however, the data
were not furnished because he
felt the request was pressure
and an intrusion"
Last September. Mr.. Donald
son said, he was asked to come
to Senator Chavez office, and
the Senator suggested" that
the Feldman case be concluded
as early as possible "and in
timated that such a conclusion
should be favorable to Field
man"
Later, kilograms were re-
ceiyed by three other board
members from Senator Chavez,
Mr.. Donaldson said. The tele-
grams noted that Mr.. Field
mans wife was i'll and her
condition was aggravated by
the continued suspense" about
the outcome of her husbands
case.
MagnusOn Asks Data
Mr.. Donaldson said he re-
ceived a call last September
from the Office of Senator Mag
nuson, Democrat of Washing
ton, requesting information on
the status of the druggists case.
BY this time the case had been
taken to the Municipal Court
of Appeals.
Members of the board said
they understood the Senators
knew of the druggists license
problem because they or friends
had patronized his drug store
At one point last year, Mr.
Donaldson said, corporation
counsel staffers suggested that
the board suspend licenses for
only 80 days. But the board
decided it would not consider

The
Rambler
Attends
A Coffee Break
By GEORGE KENNEDY

Every morning the Ram
bier is happily awakened by
the aroma of coffee percolat-
ing in the kitchen.
1t makes getting up worth
while.
He takes it strong-without
cream and without sugar.
Unfortunately he's usually
in a hurry to get his bus and
doesn't get that second cup.
Sometimes he doesn't have
time to finish the first. He
hates to leave that coffee.
So you see how glad he was
to accept an invitation to an
"all-day coffee break" at the
Pan American Union.
All was bedlam when he
arrived in the patio fronded
by rubber, coffee, banana and
palm trees.
Young women and girls
were circulating in a bewil-
dering variety of folk cos.
tunes and head dress.
The macaws were Squawk-
ing, everyone was talking,
English sparrowS were chirp-
ing, and a Costa Rican en-
tertainer with an admirable
accuracy of rhythm was
singing to the accompani-
ment of his mandolin.

the instrument by slapping
the wood with the palm of

The Rambler stood in line,

cup of remarkably weak
coffee.
In a few minutes he met

eral of the international
Coffee Agreement. Mr.. San
tos, who is a Brazilian and
has headquarters here in the
Investment Building, looked
at the translucent liquid
with some dismay.
THAT illustrates one of our
problems" he said. Coffee
drinking in the U.S.A. has
deteriorated. They used to
average As cups to a pound.
Now it's up to "a. People here
are drinking weaker coffee.
We don't know why"
"Tell you all about coffee?"
he laughed. That's a big
order. Coffee is rather new
compared with tea. 1t is
named after a Turkish word
and it was brought out of
Africa by the Arabians.
"It came to Europe in the
18th century, after the Ref
ormation. But religion had
nothing to do with its popu-
larity. Both Catholics and
Protestants liked it.
my country, Brazil, is the
biggest producer-more than
half the worlds production.
But Brazil didn't produce
coffee until early in the 10th
century.
"A Brazilian, of a good
Portuguese family, was the
guest of the governor of
French Guiana, our north
eastern neighbor. The guest
was served coffee and liked
it. He asked for some of the
seeds but his host, a French
marquis, refused him.
But when he left, he
found some raw beans in his
pocket. His hostess, the mar
quise, had put them there.
The coffee trees of Brazil
come from those beans.
