We turned around and

To my surprise Ned wheel

Soon we had flushed the
bird out of the trees and
were chasing him through
the open air across the river.
His white head showed that
he was the bald eagle, the
bird of the national emblem.
He was flying strong and
fast with powerful sweeps of
his broad wings.
We abandoned the pursuit
and turned downstream

week Judge Curran-though he
denied the request TO disqualify
the judges here-allowed the
issuance of subpoenas of judges
and prosecutors should Morgan
want to bring up the point be-
fore the judge assigned to try
him.
Mr.. Moore said. however,
that Morgan had failed to COM
ply with the rules of the court
in that he did not file an af-
fidavit telling what each of
these witnesses might testify
to on the disqualification mo-
tion.
Judge Mcclure then quickly
ordered that the subpoenas
should be quashed.
Morgan snapped back that
Judge MCGUIRE had no right
to hand down such a ruling
"if the court is biased and
prejudiced. it has no right to
rule on anything"
And he charged that Judge
Curran had not read any of
the motions presented last
week lust as your honor has
read none of the motions to-
day"
Judge MCGUIRE, reacting with
obvious impatience, said, Your
assumption is incorrect. don't
want any repetition of this"
Morgan Continues Attack
But Morgan pressed on, say
ing that Judge MCGUIRE had
by his very attitude this morn
ing Illustrated" that he is
prejudiced against Morgan.
The judge then said, Il don't

The judge referred to the 18

Morgan frequently represented
clients in criminal cases in the
District Court.

rupted the judge, claiming that
the court record shows other

rupted Morgan: Very well, I'll
grant your motion to disqualify

that he would be tried Novem-

In Licensing
OF Nurses

Proposed regulations to gov
ern licensing of practical nurses
in Washington were Endorsed
today by five witnesses at a
public hearing held by the Dis
trict Commissioners.
Although three of the wit
nesses proposed minor technical
changes, Commissioner Walter
N. Tobriner commented that he
had rarely seen such harmony
on proposed regulations"

testimony under advisement.
They are expected to set a fee
for licenses for practical nurses
shortly.
Witnesses who testified today
are Robert Cogswell, director.
Department of Occupations and
Professions; Mrs. William N.
Buckner, vice chairman Of the
Public Health Advisory Coun-
Gil; DR.. Frederick Heath, dep
uty director of the District De-
partment Of Health: Mrs. Ella
IP. Moran of the M. M. Washing
ton Vocational High School and
Miss Elsie T. Berdan. president.
Graduate Nurses Association Of
the District of Columbia.
Mr.. Cogswell said that
under the permissive legislation
passed by Congress last Sep
tember practical nurses are not
required to obtain license but
may do so.
He estimated about 1000
practical nurses here would
apply for licenses.

most practical nurses here will
apply for licenses and predicted
that licensing will result in
better service for the people of
the District.

The
Rambler
>. lnspects
Potomac Gorge
By GEORGE KENNEDY

AS you no doubt remember,
Friday was an example Of
"October's bright blue
weather"
The voice on the telephone
said:
Don't you think this is a
good day for a helicopter
ride?"
1t was Ned Scheetz of Hill
er Aircraft.
AS fast as a taxi could
make it the Rambler got to
the heliport where a gas
tank once stood in Foggy
Bottom between the Water
Gate Inn and the new mar
BILE building of the Peoples
Life Insurance Co.
Ned was there waiting for
him.
This is something Of a
busman'S holiday" he said.
Most of my work is demon
strating this machine. We
have sold 226 0f them Tn the
Army in a So million pro-
gram. But on a day like this
I like to go up just for the
fun of it. Where do you want
to go?"
TIL e Rambler suggested
that we go up the gorge Of
the Potomac to Great Falls.
We hoped straight up and
started for the nearby river,
just skimming the tops of
the trees.
There is no better way to
experience the beauty of fall
foliage than from a hell
copter. The forest is a vari-
colored carpet right under
the landing gear.
1t was magnificent on Fri
day. The Potomac valley is
filled with tulip poplars. At
this time of year they are
pure gold.

u. S. Cities

DR.. C. A. Doxiadis, a Greek
city designer now making a
study of urban renewal in the
United States. said today that
American cities will be choked
to death by new highways
which will bring increasing
pressures on urban centers.
Instead of bringing highways
through the already congested
hearts of the cities. planners
should place them outside the
cities with short connections
leading into the metropolitan
centers.
Future communities, he said,
must provide human sectors"
surrounded by traffic but never
crossed by it.
1T would mean man would
be master of his community
once again." DR.. Doxiadis said,
and machines would serve the
cities instead of bringing decay.
Conference Opens
DR.. Doxiadis made the OPEN
ing address at the 28th annual
conference of the National
Association of Housing and
Redevelopment officials meet
ing here at the Sheraton-Park
Hotel.
He criticized urban renewal
planning. which he said is
leading to the death of our
cities by surgery"
He said renewal has created
more functions within the
center city which in turn re-
quired new highways bring
ing new congestion. and the
process starts over again.
DR.. Doxiadis said mankind
is headed toward a universal
city which will stretch out to
cover the whole earth" Plan
ners, he said, have got to
recognize new concepts in
urban development.
Indifference Seen
DR.. Karl L. Falk, president
of the association, and chair
man of the housing authority
of Fresno, Calf, told the con-
ference that Americans are
indifferent to the ugliness of
our cities and unless more
people become aware of the
problems "our cities of the
future will become even uglier."
The trouble is. DR.. Falk
said, the citizen does not be-
come concerned about what is
happening in their cities up-
less his pocketbook is di-
rectly affected"
About 1000 urban renewal
and housing officials are at
tending the three-day con-
ference.

here, has been trying ever since
to have all Is judges of District
Court disqualified from presid-
ing over his trial.
Only last Wednesday District
Court Judge Edward M. Curran
turned down Morgan's request.
But Morgan raised the point
again this morning as he ap-
peared before Judge Mcguire
for assignment of the case in
preparation for start of the
trial today.
Charges Conspiracy
Showing the old aggressive
ness and determination that
he displayed during the 1S
months the Government says
he was posing as L. A. Morris
"a qualified lawyer who lives
in Sacramento, Calif.J, Morgan
pounded away at his point that
the District Court judges here
conspired to bring about his
arrest and prosecution.
He has contended that the
judges enlisted the aid of the
United States attorney in this
endeavor out of "umbrage and
| ill-will."
Judge MCGUIRE first asked
Morgan if he was ready to go
to trial, and he replied. "I've
been ready to go to trial ever
since my return here" This
referred to his arrest in San
Francisco in July after he fled
from Washington as an in
vestigation into his activities
was starting.
/ However. Morgan told the
judge firmly. Il proceed to
trial under protest"
/ Judge MCGUIRE replied that
this could be resolved very
easily"
Morgan then reiterated his
charge of bias and prejudice
At this point Assistant United
States Attorney Luke Moore

There are many islands

here we flushed a couple of
flocks of duck-about so in

the island trees so they were

black ducks. Many of them
