Teacher Pay
PIonGoing to
Senate Unit

Pay raises for District school
teachers will be considered by
"a Senate subcommittee tomor-
row, although the District Com
missioners can't urge the in
creases.
The Commissioners are caught
between the President and the
Democratic majority on the
Senate District Committee on
the issue.
The President, through the
Budget Bureau, strongly rec
commended" that the Commits
sioners not make such pro-
posalS to Congress. Robert E.
Mclaughlin, president of the
Board of Commissioners ac-
knowledged receipt of the
Budget Bureaus adverse report
yesterday.
At the same time, he said
the Senate District Subcommit-
tee scheduled to hold hearings
Wednesday had asked the
Commissioners to forward the
pay proposals they preferred.
I'VE shall file the 9 per cent
teacher pay increase without
comment" Mr.. Mclaughlin
said.
This 9 per cent raise was a
compromise worked out by
Commissioners aides and sent
for Budget Bureau clearance
several weeks ago.

THE PROBLEM of Eliza
beth Benson of the faculty
in translating the address Of
the guest speaker was not as
simple.
The speaker was Mrs. Cairs
inc Mackay Wilson, a men,
ber of the Senate of Canada
since 1882. Senator Wilson,
whose granduncle founded a
school for the deaf, spoke
with an occasional high note
like Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt.
She spoke about the govern
ment of Canada.
Senators are appointed by
the governor general on the
nomination of the prime
minister. When a woman
was nominated in the 1920s,
the highest court of Canada
held that a woman was not
a person and that the ap-
pointment was invalid.
Finally, in 1929, the Privy
Council in London, on ap-
peal, held that a woman was
a person. Senator Wilson did
not mention that, but it was
a Labor government and a
woman, Margaret Bondfield,
was already a member of the
British cabinet as a minister
of labor.
But as Senator Wilson told
how the Canadian fedora
ton started in 1867, how
British Columbia and Mani
toba came in 1870 and New
foundland in 1947, it was
interesting to watch Miss
Benson working furiouSly
with her fingers, spelling out
digitally, almost letter for
letter, such words as "Sas-
katchewan," and to watcn
her spectators watching her
fingers without a wayward
glarA1.

The
Rambler
Gives d
Thought to Hearing
BY GEORGE KENNEDY

Almost all of us have hear
ing.
Sometimes we consider it
a curse.
During radio commercials,
for instance. \
But suppose you were born
deaf.
What isolation! Unable to
hear the doorbell ring
to acknowledge an introduc-
ton, this is our new neigh
Dor - to have to laugh
because everyone else is
not because you heard the
joke.
These thoughts occurred
to the Rambler when he at
tended the 96th commence
ment of Gallaudet College.
Gallaudet is on Kendall
Green, an extensive acreage
beyond Eighth street and
Florida avenue NE. The in
stitution has been fortunate.
Unlike the Soldiers Home,
its land has not been requi-
sitioned by the Government
for other purposes.
Born before the Civil War,
more than 100 years ago, it
has buildings that are au-
thentic Washington antiques.
But that is unimportant.
One of its graduates said
recently:
''If you are deaf, Gallaudet
is oxford and Cambridge
and the Sorbonne and Har-
ward and Yale all rolled into
one. 1t is the only institution
of higher education in the
world for those who cannot
hear"

Hear Ronu|o
He Wants Summit
Meetings Enlarged

Gen. Carlos P. Romulo last
night protested the exclusion
of all but four nations from
the Paris Summit conference.
Imperialism is dead" the
Philippine Ambassador said in
a Georgetown University COM
mencement address, "and this
is no longer a world where only
the wealthy and the mighty
decide and dictate and fule."
Gen. Romulo said he was
speaking "as one of the 2 bill
lion unrepresented at the ILL
fated summit conference"
He called the 78 United Ma
tions countries not at the Paris
talks "the grass that will be
trampled upon" if the Big Four
cannot agree.
Right to Be Heard
1--WE have a right to be heard
in whatever summitry is to be
held hereafter, and no one has
better credentials than the
secretary general of the United
Nations to speak for humanity
and the world"
Gen. Romulo indicated that
the summit talks were fore
doomed because 1--WE are deal
ing with the most powerful,
predatory and unanswerable
state in history, propelled by
an atheistic, messianic and de-
ceptive doctrine which -. civ
ilization can neither curb nor
control"
The summit, he said, twas
scuttled by the successor of the
czars. the lord and master of
an empire of war technology"
an apparent reference to Soviet
Premier Khrushchev.
Predicting that the cold war
will become more blighting
and frigid than you have
known under the frostiest days
of Stalin," Gen. Romulo called
for American efforts to estab-
lish a positive and creative"
peace.
"If with all the power that
you now WELD yours is such
a reckless leadership that you
cannot weld the forces of hu-
manity together and guide
them along the principles of
democracy and justice for
all mankind, you will have lost
the opportunity to prove that
yours is the way of the future" T"
Degrees to 1,179
Both Gen. Romulo and his
youngest son, Roberto Rey
Romulo, were among the Lite
persons receiving degrees in
yesterdays, ceremonies. The
Ambassador was awarded an
honorary doctor of laws degree
and his son received a bach
elor of arts degree.
Honorary degrees also were
conferred on DR.. Howard
Mitchell, conductor of the Ma
tional Symphony Orchestra,
and John L. Lewis, retired
chief of the United Mine Work.
ers. Both received doctor of
humane letters degrees.
DR.. Mitchells daughter, Mar
tina Louise Mitchell, who re-
ceived a bachelor of science de-
lgree in nursing, stood beside
her father as he was honored.
The university's John Car
roll Medal of Merit went to
William Patrick Gagney, of the
class OF, 1885. now an electrical
contractor in the Midwest, for
his civic, education and charity
work.
The Very Rev. Edward B.
Bum, president of Georgetown,
urged the 1860 graduates to dis
tinguiSh "the surface changes
and vicissitudes of our national
life from the unchanging sta
bilities on which that national
life was founded and grew
great"
Among those receiving de-
grees was Henry st. John Fitz-
Gerald, chief assistant United
States Attorney for the East
ern Federal District of Vir-
ginia. For his master of law
degree, Mr.. FITZGERALD attended
night school for two years

ecclesiastical institutions of
Europe.
Within, the chaplain of
the college, the Rev. Eugene
McVicker, showed in his
prayer, which he both spoke
and demonstrated, how SIM
pie the sign language can be.
The mind was a tap on the
forehead, God was indicated
by pointing above, education
was an upward sweep of the

a diminutive graduate stu
dent from Taiwan (FormoSa)
who has hearing and has
learned the sign language
to teach the deaf on that
outpost of Nationalist China.
Kenneth Clark, a tall
student, demonstrated it. His
grace of gesture and inten-
sity of emotion made it more
memorable than on most
occasions when it is merely
sung.
He went along with his
spectators awarenesS of the
words. When it came to "the
rockets red glare, the bombs
bursting in air." he shot up
his hands and exploded his
fists in a manner that we'll
suggested what was going on
over Fort McHenry on the
night of September 13, 1914.

BY sY RAMSEY

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (P)-As soon
as 73-year Mrs. w. w. German,
Sr., arrives at the golf course with
her teen-age grandson, she gives
him the usual pep talk:
Don't get upset or disgusted if
you make a bad shot Forget it,
keep your head down and swing ma
turally on the next shot"
Mrs. German has been following
her own advice for the IL years
she has been playing.
The white-haired widow believes
golf was invented for fun and no
other reason.
If anything looks like competi-
tion or pressure-any kind of tour
nament-she won't get on the links.
That's what keeps me out of
the rocking chair and in good
health" she says,
She gave up bridge long ago "be-
cause | got too upset when / made
a mistake"
Her husband played golf daily
and their two sons caddied for
him, so Mrs. German succumbed
and learned the game.
Once she almost quit forever.
II saw this covey of red-breast-
ed blackbirds. They looked a good
distance away. My husband told
me to go ahead.
II went in there with my driver
and saw the bird fall. We tried to
revive it by putting it in the water,
but it was dead.
at just made me sick. l bawled
like a baby"
That incident hurt Mrs. German
more than the time she was hit by
golf ball.
