Morse Asks Bockinq
To Air Home Rule Plea

a majority of candidates for
delegates and committeeman.
Mr.. Donohue claimed that
Senator Morse, under such cir
cumStanceS, would not have
entered the District preSiden-
tial primary race.
But the Senator said last
night he was willing to throw
my hat in the ring before Mr..
Wheeler came to me. He came
to me after I made my de-
cision."
The Senator called the
Donohue statement a below
the-belt attack" and said Mr..
Wheeler had brought IAN end
to machine politics in the Dis
trict's Democratic Party and
brought about a return to ma
jority rule"
On other District problems,
Senator Morse said he had
heard "rumors" that Senate
passed legislation calling for
additional Juvenile Court judges
here has been "languishing" in
the House District Committee
because of prejudice against a
possible Negro appointee.
There are many colored law
yers in the District who would
be a credit to that BENCH" the
Senator said, adding that there
is mo moral, legal or economic
justification" for begging down
the work of the court.

Albert Rozier, Negro student
at North Carolina Agricultural
and Technical College, said the
sit-in movement is spreading
with the speed of a fad. Al
though calling for strong sup
port of sit-ins, Mr.. Rozier
warned that violent demon
strations would have disastrous
results.
The Rev. Wyatt Walker of

LIVE CANNON BALL
WAS DOORSTEP AT
VIRGINIA SCHOOL

RICHMOND, Va. (AP).-
They're going to have to
find another doorstep for
one of the classrooms at
Highland Springs Elemen-
tary School.
A Civil War cannon ball
that had been serving the
purpose, after lying around
the school for two years,
was turned over to police
yesterday.
A teacher noticed it still
had a fuse. He give it to a
policeman who put the 20
pound cannon ball on the
desk of Police Chief w. j.
Hedrick.
Chief Hedrick hasn't de-
cided what to do with it
but at least until it's de-
fused he won't use it as

districts Ito encourage the
consolidation of property for
large-scale developments"
The propose regulation
states that the height limit for
large-scale Office building prof.
ectS on a site of 10 acres or
more may be increased if added
setbacks and density controls
are observed.
The proposed law, if ap-
proved by the county, would
permit Morris Cafritz, builder,
to erect three 120-foot Office
buildings near the Pentagon if
he can get the land re-zoned
to unlimited commercial, Mr..
Moore said.
The planner said part of the
land NEEDED for the office
building project is now in other
coming claSSif1cations that have
lower height limits.
The height of the Cafritz
project generated wide contro-
versy a year ago when the
builder sought a variance to
permit construction of the
l20-foot buildings on land
zoned for 75-foot structures.
The board of zoning appeals
approved the variance, but the
ruling was reversed by the
county board in a 3-to-2 vote
after a special hearing called
at the request Of protesting
citizens.

InterruciuI
Homes Stock
Sale Pushed

Sixty thousand dollars worth
OF stock has been sold in the
Washington area to help finance
an interracial housing develop
ment in Montgomery County.
This was disclosed last night
by Oliver Popenoe, president of
the National Capital Clearing
House for Neighborhood De-
mocracy and treasurer of Home
parks. Inc.
Speaking at a meeting of the
Washington Ethical Society,
1922 Massachusetts, avenue
NV, Mr.. Popenoe said that
Homeparks has a goal of $780,
600, sufficient to finance the
construction of about 100
homes.
The project, Mr.. Popenoe
said, would give middle-class
Negroes the chance to get into
the mainstream of American
life"
The Montgomery houses
would be built by Morris Mil
gram, a Philadelphia developer,
who has several sites in the
county under consideration.
Mr.. Popenoe said location of
the Atomic Energy Commission
and the National Bureau of
Standards in Montgomery may
increase the need for Negro
housing there.

lands for the Antietam Battle
field near Sharpsburg, Md, is
authorized under a bill signed
by President Eisenhower yes
terday.
The bill permits the purchase
of 600 additional acres at the
famous Civil War battlefield
and to arrange for agreements
on use of other land to preserve
the site.
Representative Foley, Demo-
crat of Maryland, offered the
bill designed to safeguard the
site against rapidly encroach-
ing developments.
Under an old law, which con-
tinues in effect, the Department
of Interior is authorized to
accept donations of land and
money for land buying at the
site. However, supporters of
the bill said this law alone was
not proving effective in pre-
serving the area as an historic
site.
