The resignation resolution
said that the school board had
"arrogantly" declined to answer
q list of 20 alliance questions
pertaining to school policy. In
addition, the resolution con-
tended that the school board
failed to respond to the or
ganization's demand for pub

The tax cut resolution COM
planned that school budget
makers had absorbed too large
q share Of the extra income
anticipated from the readjust-
ment Of all taxable property to
40 per cent of current market

tended that the 40-per cent

Rods suitable FOR casting from 100 TO 500 feet into the surf

Nothing Unusual?

If Prince Georges County Sheriff
j. Lee Ball is right in saying that there
was nothing unusual" about the recent
incident in the jail of which he has
charge, that fact, it seems to us, should
be. of considerable interest and concern
to the people Of the county.
g" Is there nothing unusual in the fact
that 17-year-old boy, accused of auto
theft, was put in cell with several
other prisoners, one of whom was
charged with murder? Is there nothing
unusual in the fact that some Of these
prisoners beat the 17-year-old until he
was unconscious? Is there nothing
unusual in the fact, or reported fact,
that the prisoner accused of murder
held razor to the boys throat and
threatened to kill him? Do suspected
n1urdererS commonly carry razors in
the Prince Georges County jail? Finally,
is there nothing unusual in the fact
that some "a hours passed before the
sbeaten boy received medical attention
attention which led to his being
..hoSpitalized?
If the sheriff's comment truly
answers these questions-if there was
nothing unusual about this incident at
the jail-then the fact must stand as
scandal and rebuke to Prince Georges
County.

would be no Federal aid to education in
the sense of the administration is so
urgently recommending.
The President himself, primarily in
recognition of the strong pressure from
Roman Catholic spokesrhen in favor of
Federal aid to parochial schools, has
urged that his public school program
be dealt with by itself and that, if
Congress wished, the matter of assis-
tance to non-public schools be treated
in separate legislation. Each, in that
case, could stand on its own feet-both
politically and constitutionally There
are many in Congress, including Senator
Morse of Oregon and Representative
Thompson Of New Jersey, who are han
ding the administration measure, who
favor this approach. In fact, separate
legislation to provide long-term, low
interest rate loans to private schools
already has been introduced.
The position Of those who favor this
division, and for that matter the position
of those who feel that expanded Federal
aid to education is essential at this time,
should be strengthened by the Ribiooff
memorandum.
