A committee representing 40
churches today backed rent
subsidies for private housing
for large families displaced by
urban renewal.
Willis G.. Kemper, chairman
Of the Interchurch Committee
for Urban Renewal and an
elder in the National Presby-
terrain Church, said his COM
mittee will advance $4,000 to
the subsidization effort if
enough additional money is
raised to launch it.
James G. Banks, relocation
director of the Redevelopment
Land Agency, is trying to raise
enough money to subsidize
rents for at least Is families
for two years to demonstrate
the value of this approach to
housing for large families who
cannot afford decent quarters
on their own. Ideally, Mr.
Banks said, the project should
be financed with 100000 but
could be done on a lesser
scale for $4,000.
Sounds Out Groups
In an effort to raise the
money for this demonstration
project, Mr.. Banks has beer
sounding out several organiza.
tons and foundations. So far
the Interchurch Committee i.
the only one committed to Civ.
ing money. But several Other
groups have the proposal under
consideration.
In explaining his committees
participation, Mr.. Kemper saic
1--WE were persuaded of the neec
for a different kind of approach
to house those displaced BY

The problem, Mr.. Banks ex-
planned, is that urban renewal
often displaces families toe
large to fit in public housing
and too poor to pay the rent or
private homes. Unless a new
method is found to provide
proper housing for large, low.

said. "the full benefits of the
city's urban renewal program

Youth Records
Test Avoided
Ketchom Supplies
File Pine Sought
BY PHIL THOMAS
Star Stan Writer

District Juvenile Judge Orm
w. Ketcham today decided
against seeking an appellate
court review of the power of
District Court judges to order
his court to reveal social rec
ords.
The question Of whether to
meet the issue in the District
Court Of Appeals came up after
Chief District Court Judge
David A. Pine granted the re-
quest of Attorney Daniel Mar
COILS, representing a l6-year-
old boy, to take a look at the
records.
Last week the judge agreed
to stay his order to give Judge
Ketcham and United States
Oliver Gasch time to decide
whether they would seek a writ
of prohibition in an effort to
block Judge Pines decision.
Delivers Records
Today Judge Ketcham deliv-
cred the records to Judge Pine,
although he said he was sex
tremely reluctant" to do so.
Judge Ketcham added that
he still believes that he inter-
prets the Juvenile Court Act
as leaving authority to inspect
the records to the discretion of
the Juvinel Court judge.
However, he said he is per-
suaded that extraordinary
procedures are not appropriate
as a means of resolving the UNI
certain status of Juvenile Court
social records"
Notes Alternatives
Judge Ketcham said that
under the circumstances Of this
case the law does not permit a
direct appeal of Judge Pines
ruling. The only alternatives
would have been for Judge
} Ketcham to refuse to produce
the records, thus exposing hini-
self to a contempt for failure
. to obey the District Court order,
or seeking the writ of prohi-
bition.
In asking the appellate court
for the prohibition. Judge
Ketcham would have had q
. heavy burden of proof.
The Districts Juvenile Court
Act forbids "indiscriminate'
! inspection of the social records
But it also provides that other
: courts before which a Juvenile
may appear and those who
have a Legitimate interest" ir
a juvenile case may examine
the records.
/ Judge Ketcham. in a letter
to Judge Pine referred to q
+ section of the law which give!
the Juvenile Court judge wide
: discretion in making the rec.
ords available.
. The law is silent on the au.
. thority of other courts to show
y the social records to attorney
for youths who have beer
D waived to the adult Distric
n Court from Juvenile Court. a!

!; Judge Ketcham in his lettel
u urged that should some futurl
case come UP, Judge Pin,
e should rule in such a way "tha
e the matter can be reviewed b.

Church Unit Supports
Rent Subsidy Tryout

to the problem of the large
family displaced by urban re-
newal, Mr.. Banks said subsi-
dization of large houses in the
District might prevent them
from declining into cut-up
'rooming houses. He said the
program envisioned by RIA
would provide rehabilitation
and continued maintenance of
large homes used in the pro-
gram.
The subsidies would amount
to not more than 500 a month,
with a SIS average. Mr.. Banks
estimated it would cost about
81. 900 a year per family to
carry out the demonstration
project. So. for the two-year
contemplated it would cost
$4,000 to conduct the expert
ment with Is families and
5000 to do it with so fami-
lies.
Mr.. Banks said the most
logical agency" to direct the
subsidy program would be the
National Capital Housing Au-
thority whose basic respon-
sibility is to provide decent
housing for low-income fam
lies"
Aim at March Date
If the housing authority
cannot undertake this respon-
sibility for legal reasons, Mr.,
Banks said, the RIA will con-
duct the demonstration in con-
! nection with its relocation
program. Mr.. Banks would like
to start the experiment next
March, but Of course cannot
launch it that early unless the
money is in hand.
A possibility for money is the
Federal Government which
makes grants for housing dem
onstration projects. However,
at the moment, the RIA is con-
centrating on getting private
groups and foundations inter-
ested in this experiment.
/ The Districts public hous-
ing agency already is looking
into the feasibility Of con-
verting large, private homes
into public housing units. How
ever. the public housing agency
would buy the homes rather
than rent them as RIA would
like to do.

The
Rambler
Notes the
End Of the Year
By GEORGE KENNEDY

The beautiful weeping viii
low in the Lamonds' garden,
the focal point from our
kitchen window, was no
longer green. The willow
holds its green and It's leaves
longer than most of the de-
ciduous trees-the ones that
lose their leaves as winter
approaches. This one still
had green leaves, but there
were yellow ones golden
threads.
The sky was pink. The
Rambler stepped out to
watch the sunset. Only a
few days ago he had taken
his family by motor to Sky
land on the Skyline drive.
The sunset was promising.
Two banks Of clouds over the
Alleghenies to the west, with
a division between them that
promised chromatic effects.
Well that sun ended the
day without doing anything
extra-special. The banks Of
clouds closed. The sun mod
estly retired behind them.
But yesterday, right OF my
own back yard, the sun set
in glory seldom surpassed.
The trees were bare. No,
that is inaccurate. The sill
houette of a locust, a female,
was blotched by long brown
seed pods.

NEARER WAS A TREE
that had puzzled me when
we iirst bought this property,
about q postage stamp in
size. I had plucked Its leaves
and taken them to men who
should know. They had been
puzzled. But as winter ap-
preached, the big green balls
that hang on the stems,
left no doubt: It is the Usage
orange.
No leaves on the trees ex-
cept a few yellow ones on
the lombardy poplars. The
green of the larch and other
transplanted conifers was q
contrast. But just as green
was the honeysuckle, which
frost seems unable to dis
courage.
Bare branches revealed
blue jays and mockingbirds
and cardinals.
It brought to mind Father
Quiran at sc. Rita's that
morning singing the high
mass in vestments Of purple,
Of penance, not royalty. and
reminding us all that this
was the first Sunday Of
Advent, the end and the be-
ginning Of liturgical year.
Then he read the gospel
Luke XXI, 1882:
And there shall be signs
in the sun, and In the moon,
and In the stars; and upon
the earth distress Of nations,
with perplerity;: the sea and
the DaUes roaring:
Mems hearts failing them
for fear, and for looking
after those things Which are
coming on the earth: for the
powers of heaven shall be
shaken.
And then they shall see
the Son OF man coming in a
cloud iUith po,Der and great
glory.
And ,Dhen these things be-
gin to come to pass, then
look up and lift your heads;

Anniversary
By JOHN M. ROSSON
Teen Editor

Just so short years ago, civic-minded pub
Usher named William Boyce filed the necessary
papers here in Washington to incorporate an or
ganization called the Bow Scouts Of America. In
less than five years a quarter of million boys
signed up for an adventurous program which to-
day is still sweeping the country.
In the half century since 1910. more than 31.5
million youths have participated in scouting-a
continuous program of camping out of doors Of
hiking through woods, Of personal physical inn
provement and, perhaps best Of all, contributing
dav after dav to the betterment of their Nation
and communities
And for it, most of them say thev are better
human beings To emphasize its achievements,
the Boy Scout movement this year will mark its
golden anniversary The highlight will be
mammoth National Jubilee Jamboree July 22-28
at Colorado SPRINGS. Colo. where Scouts from
every State will gather for an anniversary pro-
gram Scheduled to attend are some 800 youths
from the National Capital Area-the Boy Scout
region which encompasses all Scout units in the
District and many in nearby MARYLAND and
Virginia.
In the local region alone some 900 youths
are actively engaged in Scout work-23000 Of
them Cubs, 1740O Scouts and 1900 Explorers.
Another 10000 in their late teens and early 20s
are active group leaders. Hardly day passes
when one group or another isn't pitching tent
in Rock Creek Park, hiking through the Mary
land countryside or camping out of doors along
the Virginia side Of the Potomac.
Marking their own golden anniversary, the
local units will hold Jubilee Scouting Exposition
at the National Guard Armory on May 2O-21. In
addition, the Annual National Council of the Boy
Scouts will be held here June IA.
