ItuIy's Tooth Birthday

Americas participation in Italy's
celebration Of the Tooth anniversary
of its birth as free, unified nation is
entirely appropriate. For the ideals
which inspired the Italian patriots of
a century ago to fight for independence
were akin to those which led to our own
Revolution IS years before the Italian
"Risorgimento," or political reSurrec-
ton of 1861.
1t was in March of that year that
Italy'S first elected Parliament passed
an act proclaiming the unifcation of
Italian provinceS-for the first time in
5000 years. In ConSonance with this
action, King Victor Emmanuel II
became head of the new state-not only
by the grace of God" but also by "the
will of the Nation" Thus did govern
ment Of, by and for the people of Italy

pledging ourselves to stand with them
and all other free peoples against those
who would subvert and destroy our hard
won freedoms.

an excellent book in hard-cover

Fund. They have to do with foreign
policy, military security, education,
economics, and our many-faceted
domestic situation. AS first released,
beginning in 1858, these reports at
tracted and deserved widespread atten-
tion in our country. Now that they have
been brought together in single

the Army Eisenhower earned those stars
the hard way, as commander of the
historic allied military forces which
triumphed over Hitler'S armies in
Europe. 1t is only right that he should
be permitted to retain his rank, now that
he has retired to private life.
In a fine display of bipartisan
ship, both houses of Congress responded
promptly to a special request by Presi
dent Kennedy that the former President
be thus honored in recognition of his
"outstanding military record and the
great affection and regard that the
people of this country have for him."
We salute General of the Army Ike

his peacetime retirement will not be
disturbed by another call to arms

Power of Vote

A letter by R. NJ. Barnes
asked a most pertinent queS-
ton: Isn't there something
that can be done about the
Warren Court"
Yes, there is something that
can be done, the American
people can wake up. They
must nominate and elect
Senators and congressman
who have the courage and
moral fortitude to regain
from the executive and judi
cial branches of the Govern
ment t cir constitutional
authority forfeited in the
past Is years. Then, and only
then, will the people Of
America have a Government
as called for in the ConStitu-
ton of these United States.
Most Americans do not real
ize the power of their vote.
If they would give thought
and consideration to the abil-
ity, character and background
of the candidates selected to
be their representatives. as
they do to the selection Of a
home or an automobile, there
would be more government by
the people. not politicians.
Earl Warren's appointment
to the Supreme Court. like
others, was a political payoff.
approved and consented to by
the Senators elected by the
American voters.
Let the voters Of America
wake up before it is too late.

According to Crosby S.
Noyes, our American image"
is now good in Great Britain,
although until recently the
fires of British liberalism fed
on a volatile brand of anti
American propaganda. AS
outgoing Ambassador John
Hay Whitney observed un-
happily, the American Gov
ernment was represented as
"trigger-happy and irrespon-
sible, infested by Mccarthy
ties and eager to involve Brit
ain in reckless experiments in
craftsmanship"
What an unhappy commen-
tary on politics" that so many
of the very individuals most
responsible for painting such
a shamefully distorted por-
trait of our country through
out the world in the first
place are now, in their vari-
Gus new positions of Govern
ment responsibility, taking
f-righteous credit for eras-
ing it.

Community Pride

At the top Of page B-3 in
the edition of March l3,
there is a picture of a school
with the caption, Two ele-
mentary schools with the
ClaSsrooms arranged like a
doughnut around an open
court are being built at
MarumSco E" To set the
record straight, the school in
question is called the Feath-
erStone School and it is To-
Gated on the Featherstone
plat in the Featherstone Sec
ton of Woodbridge, not
Marumsco.
Undoubtedly there are a
few people who would like
to change the name Of our
community and I might add
many Of the old-timerS are
plenty sick of Marumsco and
would like to change that
name. Woodbridge is an hon
ored name among the com
munitieS of Prince William
County and the majority Of
us do not care to have the
name changed to Marumsco.
In the future when men
tioning our great community,
which includes the different
Marumscos such as Village,
Hills, Plaza, Acres, Woods,
ETC., would you please call it
by it's official name. the rec
ognized name-Woodbridge?

Memorial PIonninq

Is has come to my atten-
tion that steps are incor-
porated in several Of the de-
signs for the Franklin D.
Roosevelt Memorial. I am
sure that many physically
handicapped persons who visit
the Washington area once
this m emorial is erected
would want to view the Struc-
ture, but will find it difficult
to do so if it can only be
reached after climbing steps.
I respectfully suggest to
the designers of this and fu-
ture memorials. buildings
and cultural centers. that
they substitute ramps for
steps so that all Americans
can have equal opportunity
to enter.
Many visitors to the Ma
tons Capital have been de-
MED a close look at the JEFF
ferson and Lincoln Memorials
and to numerous other places
of interest because of steps.
1t would be an easy thing to
provide ramps for wheel
chairs if only the designers
Of public places would think
OF those little things.

When are they going to

Humane Slaughter

The good people of Mont
gomery County will be pleased
to know that a bill has been
introduced in the Maryland
Legislature requiring the
humane slaughter of meat
animals. This is not mere
Sentimentality-it is a moral
obligation-and it benefits
both your pocketbook and
your palate! The Nations
largest meat packers have
discovered that the quick and
humane method of slaughter
now required by Federal law
results in better quality meat
with less waste. Hence, they
produce at a saving to them
selves and to their customers.
If we stopped to consider
the last terrified moments of
the animals that provide our
food, many of us would be-
come vegetarianS! All of this
pain and terror can be elimi-
mated by the use of a simple
device that costs a mere
$27.95. One wonders why it
isn't used voluntarily since it
is so much easier and more
economical than the present
savage methods.
Senator Northrop's bill is
now being considered. All we
need do is to make our wishes
known to the Maryland Leg
iSlature. A postcard or letter
to Governor TaweS, to the
Chairman, Judiciary Commit
tee, House of Delegates. and
or to any of the Montgomery
County Delegates urging the
enactment of Bill No. 284

cause, but it must be done at
once-while it is under con-
Sideration. tgome cry

Last Hope

The chilly reception which Senator
Robert Byrd of West Virginia has given
the District request for a $5.7-million
addition to the Federal payment for
this fiscal year Is bitter pill For un-
less this modest and reasonable ap-
preparation is approved by the Senate,
there is little reason to hope or believe
that the city can avoid a disastrous cut
back in urgently-needed capital i'm
provementS during the year ahead.
Unfortunately, the $5.7 million is
only part of the problem. Already
Commissioner Tobriner has warned
Congress that the District must lop off
some SIC million in school, hospital and
other scheduled construction improve
ments, unless new revenues in that
amount are provided for the next
fiscal year, starting July l. The $5.7
million scheduled for this year, If 1t is
passed over, will merely add to that
deficit.
Ironically, the $5.7 million would
have been fully available to the city
this year had it not had to bear the
S9-million-a-year additional cost Of the
Government pay raises voted by Con-
gress last summer. With the impoSi-
ton Of these mandatory expenditures,
over which the District has no control,
there was every reason to expect that
Congress would appropriate at least a
portion more of the authorized $32 mil
lion Federal payment. Thus far, only
$25 million has been appropriated.
Senator Byrd, who is in his first
year as chairman Of the Senate sub
committee in charge of District ap-
propriations, suggests that it is unfair
to saddle the Federal debt" or the
taxpayers across the country, with the
S5.7-million amount. But this appro-
priation is not, as the Senator's state
ment implies, Federal handout. The
Federal payment to the District hiStori
cally has been an obligation, payment
for services rendered the Federal
Government by the municipality. In
1854, moreover, Congress agreed to help
bear the costs of a long range public
improvement program through increased
Federal payments, with the city bearing
It's share through local tax increases
which regularly have been assessed.
Nor is it any solution, as Senator
Byrd suggested, that the District might
use It's borrowing authority to raise the
S5.7 million. To finance its share Of
the Improvements during the next few
years, the city already plans to exhaust
it's present authority; in fact, it has
asked Congress to extend the authority
to borrow another $75 million in the
near future. One day, not too far off,
the District must begin making pay
ments on these debts, and it will be
hard-pressed to do so.
Nor, finally, is it possible that local
taxes can be increased sufficiently
during the next fiscal year to bear the
burden alone. The House District Com
mittee already has approved sales
tax increase which would bring in an
additional SO million next year. Unless
a realistic and equitable Federal pay
ment also is appropriated, however the
complex fiscal plan proposed by the city
will collapse. And the first test of
whether that will occur is the $57mil-
lion request now under consideration
by the Byrd subcommittee.

enjoy the many advantages
which they have lost in the
city.
The traffic problems are
with us, but the emphasis
should be on moving people
and not vehicles. 1t is people
who work in our Government
buildings and it is also people
who shop in our downtown
areas-not vehicles. If the
emphasis is changed from
moving vehicles to moving
people, then it will be possible
to maintain the historic and
aesthetic status of the Ma
tion'S Capital and provide
for its orderly development.
The movement of people
can best be accomplished
through a mass transporta-
ton system, and in the
interest of preserving our
city, the North Washington
Council of Citizens ASsocia-
tionS gives it's wholehearted
support to the development
of a mass transportation
system which would ade-
quately meet the needs Of
our city. We feel that all new
highway construction in the
District that can reasonably
be halted be stopped until
an adequate mass tranSporta-
ton system has been given
a fair trial.
The zoning laws and urban
renewal laws are useless and
will remain so until the traf
fic problem has been solved.

Racial Harmony

Item x Of the President S
Housing message indicates
that he will shortly propose
a new cabinet-rank Depart
ment Of Housing and Urban
Affairs. With so per cent Of
the population congregated
in the l68 standard metro
politan areas, there can be
little doubt of the great need
for such a department.
1t is hoped however, that
the new department will be
concerned with more than
the physical problems of ur-
ban communities. such as
housing, water and air pol
luton, sewage disposal and
urban renewal. important as
they are. Consideration must
be given, as well, to the
human problems faced by the
1O8 million urban dwellers.
Such human problems in
clude relations between
groups of differing race and
ethnic backgrounds, tensions
and hostilities arising from
neighborhood changes, prob
lens of migration and popu-
lation growth, irritat'ons and
reSentmentS arising from
0vercrowding and deteriora-
tion and encounters between
newcomers and old residents.
, There has long been a rec
ognition within the States
and communities as to the
need for a governmental
function to deal with metro
politan human relations
problems on a par with mu-
nicipal concern with the
physical problems of the ur-
ban area. In some 70 COM
munities. including Philadel-
phia, Pittsburgh, and our own
Washington. D. c.. there have
been created municipal COM
mitteeS on intergroup and
human relations. Twenty
States have similar bodies.
Their work would be consid-
erably enhanced by the crea-
ton within the proposed De-
partment of Urban Affairs of
an intergroup relations serv-
ice.
An intergroup relations
function within a Department
Of Urban Affairs would act
as a national service bureau
for local, State and regional
intergroup relations agencies
as well as working with
smaller communities not hav-
ing their own intergroup re-
lations committees. 1t would
serve as a clearing house
for information for both pub
lie and voluntary intergroup
relations agencies and pro-
vide consultative services. 1t
would engage in fact gather
ing and research as well as
providing help in establish
ing training programs for
professionals and volunteers
in the field including spon-
sorship of pilot projects.
The 1860 Democratic Plat
form as a matter of fact
contemplated a Federal in
tergroup relations function
"to help solve problems Of
discrimination in housing,
education, employment and
community opportunities in
general" The platform en-
visioned assistance by such a
service "in the solution of
problems arising from the re-
settlement Of immigrants and
migrants within our own
country, and in resolving re-
ligious, social and other ten
sions where they arise"
