SEAMS TO NE
Workmanship important
As Speed and Short Cuts
By PATRICIA SCOTT

Speed and short cuts alone
are not important. The great
est fun in sewing is to dis
cover and to use methods
that will allow you to work
with ease, and that will give
your clothes the look of fine
workmanship. Such methods
are the real time-savers that
make sewing a pleasure.
OIL made a dress with
long, fitted sleeves, and was
in such a rush to finish it
that I didn't measure the
sleeve-length before cutting
it out. This was very stupid,
I know, because I have ex-
tremely long arms.
Now, the dress is finished
but I can't wear it because
the sleeves are about 2 inches
too short and I look as
though I've grown out of the
dress. I have extra fabric
left, but not enough for new
sleeves. Should I cut them
short or can I piece them in
some way?
A.-Since you know how
foolish and unnecessary your
blunder is I'll skip the lecture.
You're fortunate enough to
have some fabric left. so I
would recommend making
deep cuffs.
First add a piece the neces-
sary length, and be sure
to include seam allowance
where piece is joined to
sleeve and cuff. Then cut
out a cuff wide enough to
cover the seams when turned
back, again including seam
allowance. Be sure to use in
terfacing in the cuff or it will
droop. (See illustration.

Mr.. Ford criticized the super

Postal Raise
By the Associated Pres,

President sEisenhower's plea
to boost postal rates ran into
barbed opposition yesterday
from Senator Olin D. Johnston
Democrat of South Carolina
chairman of the Senate Post
ONCE Committee.
Senator Johnston, whose
committee will consider the
request, said Mr.. Eisenhower
reasoning for increasing postaI
rates was ridiculous"

are paying more than theil

in a statement.

by the White House before the
decision to ask for Mr.. Doerfer's
resignation. 1t appears likely
that both Mr.. Nixon and At
torney General Rogers, a close
adviser to the Vice President,
were also consulted on the Sc
lection of Mr.. Ford.
Both Mr.. Rogers and Mr..
Ford have been outspoken on
the issue that has split the FEC
and served as a rallying point
for the broadcaSting industry
since House investigators began
airing such radio-TV abuses as
rigged shows and "payola." This
is whether tighter FEC control
over programming is a valid
ard necessary exercise of regu-
latory power or censorship" Of
broadcasterS.
Mr.. Doerfer sided with the
broadcasters, holding that their
constitutional rights of free
speech and press would be
violated or at least gravely en-
dangered If the FEC attempted
to enforce tighter control over
program content.
On Other Side

titled to see the files-and he
implied that probably would

In School Costs

A total of 1900 children are
attending Catholic elementary
schools in Montgomery County
and another 1871 are going to
high schools, according to Off
Gals in the Washington Arch
diocese.
Based on the current 1885 an
nual per pupil cost in public ele-
mentary schools, the School
Board would have to put up an
additional $4,7OO,465 to educate
1000 elementary students.
The high school per pupil cost
is $487, so add $911,177 more for
the 1871 new high school stu
dents.
Those sending their children
to any of the 10 elementary
parochial schools pay a tuition
charge ranging from SIP to $40
a year. Tuition for the six
parochial high schools in the
county ranges from $500 to $500
annually.
These charges are in addition
to the $2.48 basic' county tax
rate, paid by all property own
ers. OF this amount, $2.19 goes
for schools.

"All persons employed by the

Interracial Housing
Planned For County
2O-Acre Option
On Site Here
Now Obtained
By j. b. Zatman
Staff Reporter

Construction of an inter-
racial housing development
is in prospect in Montgom-
cry County, The Sentinel
learned this week.
Morris Milgram, Philadelphia
builder, whose firm has taken
an option on a site, refused to
reveal location of the proposed
project. He did say approx
mately 20 acres were involved.
However, Joseph L. Rauh, jr.
Washington attorney who is
connected with Milgram, said
he understood" the site is in
the county. Both he and Mil
gram declined to give any fur
Their information.
From another source, it was
learned that the development is
about one or two years away
from actual construction and
that other possible sites are be.
ing sought.
Milgram, who heads Modern
Community Developers, Inc,
has built interracial housing in
several states in the east and
midwest. His own home Is in
a community occupied by two
thirds white and one.third
Negro families.
First reports that he was
seeking a Montgomery site for
such a development came last
fall when the builder spoke at
a meeting sponsored by the uni.
tartan Church of Montgomery
County.
Milgram and his supporters
say that a non.segregated COM
munity is based on the DEM
ocratic ideal of equal oppor.
tunity for all and that his de-
velopments have brought no
