Dopeviolators
Get Jail Terms

Narcotics violators were SEN
fenced to jail terms ranging
from one year to Is years In
jail by District Court judges
yesterday.
Judge Henry A. Schwein-
haut gave Joseph E. Langley,
So. a 15-year sentence on a
guilty plea to a charge Of selling
narcotics. Langley, known In
Baltimore as Little Joe," has a
criminal record dating back to
1910, including a violation of
State narcotics laws.
Hattie M. Ricks, %, Of the
1900 block of Tenth street
NV, was sentenced to serve
from l6 months to four years
in jail by Judge Schweinhaut.
She had pleaded guilty to pos
session Of narcotics and alleg-
edly sold three capsules Of her
DIN to an undercover police
man.
Judge Richmond B. Keech
handed out a 10-year jail SEN
tence to Dolores c. Terry, 20,
Of no fixed address, for sale of
narcotics. She was previously
convicted for violation of Fed
eral narcotics laws in June,
1855, and had been fined 500
and sentenced to serve 20
months to five years in jail.
Judge John J. Sirica took
pity on a musician and his wife
who had been indicted origi-
nally for violation of Federal
narcotics laws after an under
cover policeman saw them buy
ing heroin from another man.
However, this indictment was
dismissed and Irving T. Rich
ardson and his wife, Gloria,
were allowed to plead guilty to
narcotics possession.
The judge then placed the
pair on probation for two years
on condition that they would
return to their home in Phila-
delphia.
The judge was told that Mrs.
Richardson and her husband
developed the narcotics habit
after Mrs. Richardson started
taking drugs on a doctors pre-
scription.
Judge Sirica did not deal 50
gently, however, with three
other narcotics violators. He
gave eight-year sentences to
Chester C. Smith, 20, Of the 400
block Of Franklin street NE,
and Willie H. Gregory, 81, Of
the 1900 block Of street NE.
Dorothy McKeithan, %, of
the 1900 block of Rosedale street
NE. received a one-to-four
year sentence. Smith had
pleaded guilty to sale and pos
session Of narcotics, and the
McKeithan woman and Greg
ory had pleaded guilty to pos
session.

can theoretically could bt
killed.
With an elaborate program
deaths could be held to 10 mil.
lion if cities are targets or tt
/ or 2 million if only the Stra-
tegic Air Command is hit.
Effectiveness of civil defense
would depend on the type oi
attack, the time of the day, the
weather and the skill of our de-
tense. But even a modest pro.
gram should be able to cui
deaths in half, according to the
testimony.
Even if all but a few million
Americans survive, would the
country be worth living in?
The experts said that despite
the unprecedented damage, peo-
pie would work quickly to re-
store the Government and
economy-provided they had a
sensible plan beforehand.
This country's Government is
decentralized into thousands OF
small, local packages. Ameri-
cans automatically support
their governmental units, and
they would do this after a nu-
clear war.
The economy, according to
the studies discussed during the
hearings, could show amazing
powers to recover. For in
stance, a monster war that
destroyed every metropolitan
area and everyone living in
them would cost us about one
third Of our people, one-half OF
the wealth, and one-half of our
manufacturing capacities.
The economy that remained,
however, would have enough re-
sources to rebuild to prewar
levels in 10 years. In fact, wit
nesses said it would be an easier
job than the Soviet Union had
in rebuilding its economy in the
postwar decades.
And even with this sort OF
damage. they pointed out, the
United States would still have
the fourth largest population
and would remain the richest
country in the world.
Health Damage
But what about the genetic
damage-the deformed children
who would be born as long as
radioactivity lingered-and the
people who would die before
their time?
The researchers said recent
work convinced them that the
effects would be dreadful in
the aggregate. but still small
enough so that the deformities
and changed death rates would
not be noticed by the average
IperSon.
About 4 per cent of all babies
born in this country are de-
formed. After a large nucleal
war, the rate could go to 5 OF
possibly 6 per cent. Each de-
formity would be a tragedy, but
the odds for any set Of parents
having a defective child would
be changed imperceptibly.

one has miscalculated."
The experts saw a new ust
for civil defense as a means
to survive or avoid war. Civil
defense efforts, they said, vii.
show that this country Is ready
to fight in defense of its vita
interests, and this will make
the enemy less likely to chal-
lenge us.
Must Solve Everything
If civil defense has some use
is its value as great as its cost?
Witnesses pointed out that in
order for civil defense to be
worth its high price, it must
show q solution to all of the
problems of survival in a war
whose effects could last for
/ 900 years.
It should protect many mill
lions Of persons from radiation
fire and blast during the many
possible times of nuclear wars
After the war it should help
the country to recover eco
nomically, socially, politically
and pSychologically. And il
should have some answers to
the genetic effects of fallout

erations, all over the world.
The witnesses were men who
had done more research than
any other group in the coun-
try on the problems. Nc
