Prosecution
Dropped in Slots
PerjuryCose

States Attorney George W.
Bowling of Charles County has
decided not to prosecute a per-
jury charge against an Indian
Head storekeeper. the last of
nine defendants indicted a year
ago in connection with slot
machine operations.
Jacob Ely, a department store
operator, was to have faced trial
in La Plata on Monday on a
perjury charge stemming from
testimony before a grand jury.
A charge against Mr.. Ely of
leasing slot machines without a
distributors license had been
dropped earlier by Mr.. Bowling.
Since the indictments lSst
year in the midst of an election
campaign in which slot ma
chimes were a major issue, only
two Of the nine defendants have
come to trial. They were fined
$500 each for licensing viola
tions. Charges against five
other defendants were dis
missed on technicalities.
A perjury charge against one
OF the latter, Robert Moreland
OF Waldorf, had been sched-
uled for trial last Friday in La
Plata, but it also was shelved.

Loan Firm
Plans Shift
Deposits

BALTIMORE, Nov. 2 CAP).-
The attorney for a Maryland
savings and loan firm that
failed to qualify as a bona fide
savings and loan association
and was ordered by a Federal
court to register before selling
its stock, said yesterday the
firm has tentative plans to
transfer its deposits.
Len H. A. Pierson, attorney for
American International Say
ings & Loan Association, said
deposits totaling more tn a n
100000 and sasets to. cover
them would be turned over to
another firm if negotiations
succeed and if the plan wins
the approval Of State author
tiles.
Chief United States District
Court Judge Roszel c. Thomson
issued a decree Tuesday up
holding a stand taken earlier
be the Securities and Exchange
Commission which prevented
the firm from selling stock.
Judge Thomson, in a 15-page
opinion, contended the firm
and its IA affiliated organiza-
tions was engaged primarily in
the exchange Of capital stock
for mortgages involving inter-
ests in Florida, Maine and New
York.
Mr.. Pierson said the planned
transfer of American Interna-
tional'S deposits was to give de-
positors preferential treat
ment" and to protect the in

Charles Thomas of Prince
George County, in southside
Virginia. attempted to kill the

table it. He said local asso-
ciatfons had not had an op-
portunity to act.
Calls Only for Study
Harold j. MCGEE, president
of the Falls Church Education
Association, countered that the
measure calls only for a study
that the convention next year
can resolve the issue.
"The seeds Of disunity have
been sown through the offer
ing of this resolution" de-
clared A. G. Carter of South
Boston, also in southside Vir-
ginia.

Chicanery Charged
Mr.. Colby last night accused
Mr.. Thomson of chicanery in
denying that there are a num-
Der of real issues that separate
u.s." which he said Mr.. Thom-
son neither acknowledges nor
debates"
Mr.. Colby said the differ
ences center on his belief in
the need for a free public
school system including Prince
Edward County, a compulsory
education law and opposition
to massive resistance against
school integration.
Mr.. Thomson said neither
Mr.. Mccain nor Mr.. Colby
has specifically charged any,
thing was improper about the
recount, but that both have
attempted to cast every
aspersion on it." He urged his
reelection on the basis of
his six years experience in
Richmond.

Fairfax Delegate John Webb
last night attacked as highly
immoral" advice given some
homeowners that they build
fallout shelters and arm them
selves to keep out their neigh
bors.
Speaking at the final joint
candidate meeting of the House
of Delegates campaign in Great
Falls, Mr.. Webb said he hopes
civil defense officials will re-
verse their policy of offering
such advice.
"One of the most highly i'm
moral things I have ever heard
of" he said, is the advice given
to citizens that they build a
shelter and arm it with a gun
so they can shoot their neigh
bors."
The statement came during
a debate between Mr.. Webb
and the other incumbent dele
gate, Mrs. Dorothy McDiarmid,
and Republican Challengers
Hobart K. Mcdowell and Glenn
Burklund.
Sees Federal Responsibility
Civil defense preparations
should be made by the Federal
Government and not by the
State, Mr.. Webb said. The
Constitution of the United
States places responsibility for
the common defense with the
Federal Government, he added.
His remarks were in response
to a statement by Mr.. Nc
Dowell that Mr.. Webb and Mrs.
McDiarmid have mo record on
civil defense"
The Federal Government has
been inconsistent in its policy
regarding civil defense, Mr..
Webb said. He added: There
has been a great lack of lead
ership on the Federal level"
Republicans repeatedly have
stressed Virginias lack of a
civil defense program durinS
their campaign and offered a
10-point program they said
should be implemented on the
State level.
During last nights debate,
Mr.. Burklund again criticized
the two delegates as unsatisfac-
tory and ineffective.

The dissenting judge, Hamil-

Don't Forget
That Furnace

Though you have turned
the calendar to warm spring
days, you shouldn't forget
your homes heating system.
To protect your heating
equipment and to assure that
it will operate efficiently next
season, you should arrange
to have it checked and
cleaned, says the Plumbing
Heating Cooling Information
Bureau.
BY calling for service now,
you will be sure to receive
the necessary summer service,
and there will be ample time
to order repair parts, if they
are needed.
Cleaning the heating plant
is Of particular Importance.
Only a clean system is an ef-
ficient system. For example,
a layer of SCOT on the boiler
tubes has the insulating ef-
feet Of asbestos. It should
be removed before warm
weather sets in to prevent
the corrosion that results
from condensation and SCOT.
This preseason check-up
also provides an opportunity
to inspect and clean the
burner and controls and to
check other parts.
BY having your heating
system checked row, you will
be abe to move into the
winter season confidently and
comfortably.

TOday's Problem: How can
a room be made to serve
efficiently both for enter
tainment and as a study or
homework area2
The secret Of getting the
most out of the home or
apartment where you live is
to get as much double use"
as possible from each room.
One Of the areas where
this often is feasible is the
recreation or living room,
which properly equipped can
also serve as q study. The
Illustration shows q unit
which provides q luxuriously
large desk surface when the
room is in use as q study.
When it is being used to
entertain guests - and as
much open space as poSSi-
bic is required for easy cir
culation-the desk top can
be dismounted from the
bookcase section, its legs re-
moved. and the top stored
away out of sight.
The floor plans show how
the unit could be used In q
variety Of furniture arrange
mentS in rooms Of various
proportions.
Construction Of the unit
is simplicity itself. Stock
size lumber Is used in the
bookcase section. The one
and one-quarter-inch thick
desk top is bought in one
piece: It's a modern interior
door put to new use.
