Tropic' on Waiting List
At County Libraries

A Montgomery County resi-
dent who wants to read "TropiC
of Cancer" will find it banned
at his corner drugstore. but
with a little patience, he can
obtain a copy at his nearest
public library. .
On the heels of an announce
ment by States Attorney Leon
ard T. Hardy that he would
prosecute any dealer who at
tempted to sell the controver-
sial novel, the director of the
county's library system said
four or five copies were avail
able to those who placed their
names on waiting lists.
"'Tropic of Cancer is not
on the public Shelves" said
George Moreland, who heads
the Montgomery County Lii
braries Department. However,
the copies are in our central
collection at Gaithersburg to
fill reserves. We treat Lady
Chatterly's Lover in the same
manner; we feel that copies
should be available for our So
phisticated Montgomery County
taxpayers who put their names
on the waiting list"
No Jump in Inquiries
Librarians in various
branches reported no special in
crease in inquiries about the
novel since four Drug Fair en-
ployes were arrested Thursday
on charges of selling what po-
lice called "lewd and indecent"
material.
In Alexandria. police are
hunting a copy of the book but
thus far haven't been able to
find one.

FIREMEN REMOVE
WHEEL FROM
BOYS FINGER

Stephen F. Wade, 8, had
a wheel stuck on his finger
yesterday. Stephen doesn't
always put wheels on his
fingers. This was a spe-
cial one he needed for a
racing car he is building.
Stephen was on his way
from school to his home at
1908 Massachusetts avenue
Sc. when he saw the
wheel lying in the street.
He picked it up and
carried it by hooking the
middle finger of his left
hand through the center.
Then he stumbled and
damned the finger in.
His mother, using soap
and water, couldn't get it
off, nor could the doctors
and nurses at District Gen
eral Hospital. But firemen
of Rescue Squad 3, using
knives and metal shears,
did the job.

School CIosinq
Still Possible,
Pearson Says
6. 0. P. Candidate
Hits Hurrison's
Education Stand
BY JOHN BARRON
Star Staff Writer

Republican gubernatorial
candidate Clyde Pearson last
night warned that Virginia still
has not escaped the danger
that segregationists will force
closure of public schools.
Ending a day-long tour of
Northern Virginia, where sup
port of public education is
deeply rooted and transcends
party lines, Mr.. Pearson at a
Embarrassing dinner in Alex
andria denounced massive re-
sistance" as an "insidious plot"
and fraud which could be res
directed.
"It is said that the danger
from the school-closure is over.
I deny this. The people Of Vir-
ginia several years ago ap-
proved, in effect, the Gray
Commission school plan and
the leadership Of our State
turned its back on the peoples
will" he declared.
They did it once, and they
will do it again If they are
given the chance. AS late as
last year, my opponents hand
picked running mate mills
Goodwin was Sprea ding his
school-closing poison in the
halls OF the General Assembly. "
Harrison Criticized
Concerning the Democratic
gubernatorial nominee, Albertis
Harrison, Mr.. Pearson said:
He campaigned as a school,
closer in 1857 and he served in
the school-closing administra-
ton of the present Governor.
He has embraced, indeed Sc
lected, two men to run on his
ticket who are among the most
notorious of school closerS."
Several times, the youthful
Republican Knocked statements
by Mr.. Harrison that he favors
a school system second to
none"
Now no candidate would be
expected to say I am in favor
of a worse public school sys-
tenn But I would point out
that there are closed schools in
Virginia today. Does he mean
one open school in Virginia,
second to none, or 10 or 100?
I mean ALL" Mr.. Pearson said.
Joining in the ridicule OF
massive resistance" the Re-
publican candidate for Lieu
tenant Governor, Mrs. Hazel
Barger, accused the Byrd Or
ganization, which the Demo
cratic ticket represents, of woe
full failures in other areas OF
education.
I'VE have 1874 teachers in
Virginia without degrees. Many
of our country schools have
teachers who have just finished
high school and, come back to
teach. The average teacher
salary in Virginia is 81 900 be-
low the national average. We
have $4,000 children between
ages Of 7 and IA who are not
in school at all because we
have no compulsory attendance

People, said a half-dozen dele

at the three biggest hotels in

"A couple of the reservations

Mr.. Williams statement was

I'VE cannot agree with the

said Mr.. Williams.
Little Result From Sit-Ins
Aside from the hotel Incl
dent, Mr.. Williams and other
speakers said, white officials

Negroes are not patronizing
