go along with the laws, because
the public has to be protected
from the uninsured motorist.
The greater EVIL" in their
belief, is compulsory insurance,
which is being fought by in
surance companies in the three
States where it exists. These
States are New York, North
Carolina and Massachusetts,.
IT think the Maryland law
is doing a fine job" John Cop
page, deputy Maryland insur-
ance commissioner, said. BE
tween March and December,
1860, we had 40 per cent fewer
claims made against our in
sured motoriSt fund. And many
of the insurance companies
are adding new plans to cover
many people who could not
have been insured before"
Courtney Harris, deputy COM
missioner of the Virginia de-
partment, said his States plan,
which has been in effect a year,

Tags S26 Extra
In Maryland, uninsured
drivers are required to pay an
extra $26 when they buy license
tags. Insurance companies in
the State also pay a percentage
of their premium income, and
all the money goes into a
State fund. The fund is used
to pay claims against uninsured
drivers up to a maximum
$40, 900 for an injured individ-
ual; $4,000 for all persons in
jured or killed in an accident,
and $4,000 property damage.
The proposed law in the
District will be patterned after
the Maryland law. One diff
ference will be that the un-
insured drivers will pay the
entire bill in the District, with
out any contribution from the
insurance companies.
This will take some of the
unfairness out of the law" the
assistant corporation counsel
said. Under the Maryland

The Naval School Of Music

Navy Connally said today.
Mr.. Connally made the an

In temporary World War II

permit for use of this land has
expired and the land must be

Many of the principal build
ings at the naval station, in
luding part of the school OF
music barracks lie in the path
Iof construction for the new
Anacostia freeway.
Congress is now considering
legislation to provide for addi-
Itional construction at Anacostis

hearings on the proposed con-
struction, both the House ano
Senate urged the Navy to move
activities which did not have

Weothermon Says It'll Get Better
After Chill, Rain, Snow Hit Area

Heavy rain and snow flurries
hit the Washington area and
flooded rural roads early today
as a severe storm impelled by
gale-force winds moved up the
Atlantic Coast.
BY dawn, the april showers
that began yesterday had
dumped 11a inches or unsea-
sonably chill rain on the area
The Weather Bureau said
cold air sweeping in from the
Northwest dropped tempera-
lures and produced scattered
snowfall early today, especially
in the western and northern
sectors of the Washington area
A 2-inch snowfall was reported
in Martinsburg, w. Va, and
to 5 inches in the Cumberland
Frostburg Md area.
The weather was, as one
forecaster said, "as bad as April

There have been other snow
flurries in past Aprils, but few
instances in which a measur.
able amount fell, the Weather
Bureau said. The heaviest
April snowfall-51a inches
was recorded on April Fools
Day, 1924. Theslatest date ir
April on which measurable
snow fell was April %, 1898

ported.

cent session places Prince

this by dividing the big 5th
district Of Southern Maryland
With the exception of a few
precincts in Baltimore City,
the lines of the remaining dis
trictS were left unchanged.
However, the bill repealed
all sections of the law estab-
fishing the previous congress
sional district boundaries and
then re-establiShed them with
the changes agreed on by the
General Assembly.
The Committee for Fair Rep
resentation urged that the
League of Women Voters pc
tition ask for a referendum
on all of the bill except the
section repeating the existing
district boundaries. This would
leave the State with no dis
trictS. forcing all eight Rep
resentativeS to run at-large,
the committee argued.
The committee commended
the league for starting the petit
ton movement.
Mr.. Hanson said the commit
tee felt that forcing at-large
elections for all eight Congress
men would be a stronger in
ducement for the Governor to
call a special session of the
General Assembly than would
forcing only one to\ run at
large.
The committee said the spe-
cial session also could deal with
reapportionment of General
Assembly seats. Reapportion-
ment of the State Legislature

"LOOKS ALL RIGHT"

LOOKS ALL RIGHT"
said DR.. Rookie cheerfully.
Don't spare it. Give it your
weight. Step on it. DR.. Becker
will tape it."
Spartan stuff! All the
Rambler wanted was a
wheelchair, or a crutch or at
least a cane.
DR.. Becker very expertly
taped it with adhesive and
very reasonably suggested
that the injured foot should
be kept out of water.
Yesterday m orning the
Rambler was in the William
Byrd Hotel in Richmond.
There was a tub bath. He
drew a warm tubfull then
gently lowered himself into
it, leaving his left foot out.
Then he discovered that
he had left the soap on the
wash basin. He tried to get
out of the tub with his left
foot in the air and failed.
He started to laugh. Can't
get to the soap; can't get to
the telephone. Have to wait
here It'll the maid comes to
make the bed. Then get her
to summon the porter and
get me out of here.
It would have been very
simple to drain out the wa
ter, get up on his two feet,
get the soap, refill the tub
and complete the bath. But
that was an engineering
afterthought.
He finally succeeded in
getting out, firm grip on the
spigot and the soap dish.
He picked up the soap and
settled back into the warm
water with a sense of tri-
umph and relief. 1t felt so
good that without thinking
he put in both feet.

At-Lorge Vote Urged
For Maryland Slate

A campaign to force all
Maryland Representatives to
run at-large was proposed last
night by the Committee for
Fair Representation.
The move is aimed at getting
the General Assembly to pass
a fair" congressional redis-
tricting act.
The committee wrote Gov.
Tawes, asking him to call a
special session of the General
Assembly as soon as possible to
come up with a new plan for
redistricting.
A drive to hold a referendum
on the recent act of the assem-
on the recent act of the Assem-
bly, creating an 9th district was
started last week by the Mont
gomery County League of Wom-
en- Voters. The league and other
groups from the suburban area
claim the redistricting act was
unfair in that it left some dis
tricts with twice as many resi-
dents as others.
The leagues proposal would
mean that the new House
member Maryland will get as
a result of the 1860 census

large, according to Attorney
General Thomas B. Finan.
The Committee for Fair
Representation last night urged
that the leagues proposal be

Council Releases
I|Iegitimacy Report
Controversial
Bigmon Study
Toned Down
By BETTY MILES
Star Staff Writer

The District Commissioners
Youth Council today finally re-
leased a study of illegitimacy
among adolescents which was
completed two years ago.
1t was Shorn of it's original
recommendations relating to
birth control, sterilization and
abortion.
Several council members ex-
pressed relief that the contro-
VerSial "Bigman Report" was
disposed of at last, as they
adopted unanimously it's gen.
eralized recommendations on
illegitimacy, made by the
councils department heads
committee.
One of the recommendations
asks the District government to
consider developing q continu-
ing study of and realistic ap-
proach to-" illegitimacy.
Report frightened Up
The report was authorized in
1857. 1t was prepared by
Stanley K. Bigman, associate
research professor of sociology
at Gallaudet College. The Dis
trict will pay Mr.. Bigman
more than $4,000, including
1000 to revise the report, pri-
rlarily to tighten it up.
During the reports long pas
sage through the council it
was referred to both the inter-
departmental Statistical Com
mittee and Harvard for assess
ment. Harvard recommended
the Tightening up OF the ma
terial, and the original report
was shortened.
The council adopted the
position today that Mr. Big
man is free to use his own
recommendations as he sees
fit, with the notation that
they are his personal recon-
mendations and are not neces-
sarily Endorsed by the council"
The Star, in a story pub
lished on June II, 1859, based
on Mr.. Bigman'S first draft,
including his recommendations,
noted that he recommended
that a contraceptive service be
incorporated into the maternal
and child welfare health pro-
gram Of the District Health
Department.
Voluntary Sterilization
On the question of prevent
ing pregnancy by voluntary
sterilization, Mr.. Bigman rec
commended that the Health
Department take steps to ia
cilitate sterilization of women
at their request at District
General Hospital.
On prevention of birth
through abortion in special
cases, he said that if a restric-
tive policy toward therapeutic
abortions and firm suppression
OF criminal abortions continues,
abortion is likely to increase.
The question of inclusion of
birth control recommendations
in the councils own recon-
mendationS released today was
raised by DR.. Duncan Hewlett,
minister of All Souls Unitarian
Church, and a member of the
council.
There are sharp differences
of opinion on the subject, but
differences of opinion equally
strong on both Sides" DR..
Hewlett declared.
I'VE ought to decide it, not
avoid it as if it wasn't there"
Council member Joy Simon
son noted that the Commits
sioner'S recently have proposed
inclusion of a birth control
program in the Health Depart
ment'S out-patient clinic.
