WingofSchooL
Held Total Loss
Rebuilding Needed
After Carver Fire

The burned-out wing of Car
yer Elementary School will
have to be razed and built
from scratch, District school
officials have decided.
While estimate of the dam
age-cauSed Sunday night by
arsonists-has been set at
100000, razing and replace
ment of the II ruined class
rooms would cost CLOSED to
$400,0 ,000," Assistant Supt. John
M. RieckS said today.
The $100, 900 figure was based
on immediate loss of the rooms,
officials explained. But it ap-
pears now, Mr.. Riecks said
that the outside walls are so
scorched that they cannot be
retained. The whole wing
which housed more than half
of the schools claSSrooms, will
have to be razed and rebuilt.
Funds Uncertain
That also was the feeling Of
several inspectors who were
Sitting the rubble this morning
partly in search of clues to
the arsonists and partly to
determine the exact extent of
damage.
Where the money would
come from, no one knows. Dis
trict school buildings are not
insured and the school system
failed recently in an attempt
to get congressional approval
OF a So million appropriation
for school construction.
School officials, meanwhile
launched a study into means
of ending vandalism.
Mr.. Riecks said he and Supt
Carl F. Hansen will attend q
meeting of the school board
committees Thursday and ask
for an initial appropriation OF
$4,000 to buy invisible eye
machines.
Cast Electric Beam
The devices. costing $1,000
each. would cast an electric
beam on three or four of the
likeliest spots in a school-sucf
as the principals office or 6
storeroom-and if broken by 6
passing vandal would set Of
an alarm at a central point
outside the building, such a.
the nearest fire station or pri.
vate Investigators office.
The "eyes" are portable, Mr.
Riecks said, but to place ont
in each school. at the rate O.
10 a year, would take 16 years
he added.
The search for the vandal
centered on three boys, de-
scribed as 13 or IA, who wer,
seen entering the building abou
7 pm. Sunday, about two hours
before the fire.

Congress Is Told
Central Authority
Has Been Lacking
BY GEORGE WILSON
Star Staff Writer

The Federal City Council to-
day told Congress the lest way
to expedite urban renewal in
Washington is to put the pro-
gram directly in the hands of
the District Commissioners.
This recommendation was
the key one contained in a
26-page report submitted by
the council to the House Dis
trict Committee.
Committee Chairman McMil-
Ian. Democrat of South Caro-
lima, said during the hearing
that he will introduce the ur-
ban renewal bill recommended
by the council in it's report.
Samuel H. Kauffmann, presi-
dent of The Evening Star News
paper Co., and chairman of the
Federal City Council Urban Re-
newal Committee, presented the
report to Congress at today's
hearing.
Lack of Authority Seen
"The major and basic i'm
pediment to progress in the
District of Columbia urban
renewal program has been
ineffective administrative or
ganization and the absence Of
centralized authority and re-
sponsibility," the report said.
Instead of spreading author
ity among the District govern
ment and independent agencies
like the Redevelopment Land
Agency and National Capital
Planning Commission, the coun-
Gil said the District Commits
sionerS should have an express
statutory responsibility for the
direction and supervision of all
functions" Of the urban renewal
program.
The RIA would be combined
with the National Capital Hous-
ing Authority and the planning
commission would be limited to
making urban renewal recon-
mendations.
The District Commissioners,
under the councils plan, would
appoint an administrator for
urban renewal. The admins
traitor, who would be paid S18,-
500 a year. would run the pro-
gram for the District Commits
sioners. He would coordinate
the urban renewal functions of
the city departments and try to
break bottlenecks.
Abolish Renewal Office
AS it is now, Assistant Engi-
neer Commissioner Thomas K.
Fullerton runs the District Of
flee Of Urban Renewal and re-
ports directly to the Engineer
Commissioner rather than all
three Commissioners. This Of
flee of Urban Renewal would be
abolished under the Federal
City Council plan.
The National Capital Plan
ming Commission under present
law outlines the boundaries of
an urban renewal project as
well as dictates what type OF
buildings should be placed on
the slum- cleared land. Although
both these steps are subject to
approval Of the District Com

two largest, for multimillion-
dollar damages for allegedly

A month ago. on March IA,

house, for $12 million damages
for alleged price-cheating in the
sale of circuit breakers.
Fines Imposed
In February, Judge j. Cullen
Ganey of United States District
Court imposed fines of $1.924,-
500 on 30 companies, including
the II named in these suits, and
A of their executives. Seven

The latest complaints charge

BY RELMAN MORN
Associated Press Writer

JERUSALEM, April 11.-Sit-
ting impassively today in his
bullet-proof dock, Adolf Eich-
mann heard his attorney chal-
lenge the right of the Israeli
government to bring him here
for trial as an arch-prosecutor
of Jews.
Then he listened attentively
as the governments attorney
general responded that such
arguments are irrelevant to the
basic legality of this nations
action in bringing him to JUS
tice.
The first days session of the
Eichmann trial thus ended with
the justices still considering the
arguments and counter-argu-
ments Of counsel.
Eichmann's chief counsel,
pudgy and gray-haired DR..
Robert Servatius of West Ger

ton of the special court trying
the bald German. He also put

Arrest Held Legal

Mr.. Servatius contended the
defendant before the three Ger
man-born judges was simply a
tool of the Nazi leaders who
ordered the killing of millions
OF Jews in the infamous World
War II purge that ended only
16 years ago this spring.
But Israeli's attorney gen.
eral, Gideon Hausner, presented
another viewpoint. He chal-
lenged Mr.. Servatius' conten-
ton that Eichman can get no
fair trial here.
If there are judges in the
whole world who could be i'm
partial about this crime, they
are not fit to be judges" he
said.
And he told the court:
"Adolph Eichmann is here be-
fore you legally by an order for
his arrest legally issued e.
The circumstances under which
he was brought to this court
are not matters for this court
to discuss. They are irrelevant"
The only relevant matter be-
fore the court, Mr.. Hausner
argued, is "the charge of crimes
against humanity for which
Eichmann is charged"

legality of the case were still

New Lcok In Fabrics

Fabrics take the spotlight as
new colors, new textures, and new
designs make their debut in fall
and winter clothing styles, says
Marion Macdonald, Kent County
All Club Agent.
Budget fitting wOolen and fur
blends are being produced to COM
pete with luxury woods and eX-
pensive fur fibers. Blends of wool
and fur fibers are warm but light
weight, and offer great versatility.
For example, a blend of 85 percent
wool and Is percent fur fiber has
a softness and drapability that
makes a handsome fall dress or
suit. Another fabric of textured
worsted wool is ideal for a smart
suit or coat.
Blends of worsted wooden yarns
and mohair have a crisper, spring
ier feel than the regular wool fab
RIGS, and are especially popular in
the sportwear line.

Farm Conservation HELPS
Meet WildIife Needs

Wildlife practices have been de-
veloped locally by the ACP De-
velopment Group and made part
of the Agricultural Conservation
Program for 1862, according to
Jacob Zimmerman, State Commit
tee chairman.
The chairman pointed out that
farmers generally have a high re-
gard for Wildlife.
Although the 1861 ACP pro-
gram did not authorize the shar-
ing of costs on any conservation
practice primarily for wi1d1if e
benefits, many of the practices
now being carried out in the
county do help meet fish and wild
life needs while solving problems
of soil and water conservation.
The ACP shares with farmers
on a voluntary basis the cost of
establishing needed conservation
on farmland The 1862 program
will also help farmers increase
their contribution to the conserva-
ton of wildlife.
According to Zimmerman, con-
sideratiOn has been given to de-
velOping conservation practices
with benefits primarily to wild
life which will also provide, sub
stantial soil-and-water-co
ton values.
