HAZARD IN THE WORKSHOP

"Do-1t-Yourselfers" applying
Ilacquers by spray cans are in great
er danger of being poisoned than
they realize. So says DR.. Kempton
G. Wing, Psychologist, who despite
extreme caution was slightly pei
soned four times one month after
using lacquer from presumed
cans.
Spraying lacquer is potentially
more poisonous than putting it on
the old-fashioned way by brush,
believes DR.. Wing. A person inhales
not only clouds of incorporated
droplets, but also fumes in high
concentration after droplets evapo-
rate in the air. Droplets can also
accumulate on a persons body and
be absorbed. Lacquers and lacquer
thinners contain chemicals, such as
carbon tetrachloride, cfloroform.
butyl alcohol, and lead acetate that
can be toxic if enough enters the
body.
DR.. Wing does not feel directions
on spray cans that read "spray out
of-doors in well-ventilated areas"
are explicit enough. In fact, he has
found that it is as almost as easy
to be poisoned while spraying out
side as inside. "And who has ever
seen label on a can admonishing
person not to drink alcohol within
few hours after being exposed
to carbon tetrachloride %, he says.
The two close together are lethal."
Anyone using lacquer from pres
surized cans should take the direc-
tons on the can seriously and also
follow these extra precautions, says
DR.. Wing:
1. Never underestimate the need
for good reliable ventilation. Be
sure outdoor breezes carry fumes
away from you, not toward you.
Indoors use fan that directs the
air away from you and place the
fan motor above you with its air
stream directed downward toward
your head. In this position the fan
cannot receive and kick back va
pors..
2. Keep your face and body as
far as possible from the spray jet
and surface being lacquered. If the
lacquer scatters as it issues from
the can, clean the nozzle. Don't let
the mist rebound from the surface
into your face.
8. Remove lacquer-soiled clothing
and lacquer from skin Immediately
after spraying.
4. Don't smoke while spraying
because of the possibilities of fire,
explosion, and faster vaporization
caused by high temperatures.
5 AT the first sign of poisoning
Giddiness, incoordination, nausea
headache, blurred vision, or irrita-
ton of skin-stop work, clean your
body, and don fresh clothing. If
symptoms are severe or persist, call
a physician. Don't consume alcohol
several hours before or after spray
ing. Alcohol can aggravate the eff
fects of poisoning and can produce
effects that will be confused with
poisoning.

Richard Abel, teacher at
KenSington Junior High in
Montgomery, who introduced
the resolution, said that mot
a single Communist has been
found" since the Ober Law was
enacted in 1949. He said also
that the requirement of loyalty
oaths for State employees keeps
the State from getting many
good people.
"a truly subversive person
would unhesitatingly take the
OATH" said Mr.. Abel. "A truly
competent and loyal person
might be denied employment
because he could not conscien-
tiously take the oath because
he felt it violated his personal
freedom"
Open Debate Asked
Mr.. Abel pointed out that a
Johns Hopkins University pro-
fessor refused to accept a gu
bernatorial appointment to a
State radiation board last year
because of the loyalty oath.

Fairfax City Man
Is Found Dead

A 55-year-old Fairfax City
man was found dead early yes
terday in his closed car outside
his home.
City Police Pvt. Stephen w.
Foster said the man, George
Otis lookout of 104 Berritt
street, was found at the wheel
of the auto. A length of garden
hose was run from the tail pipe
to the left rear window and
rags were stuffed around it,
Pvt. Foster said.
Police said two notes were
found in an envelope in the
house. They were told Mr..
lookout had been depressed.
His family said he was suffer-
ing from cancer.
Mr.. lookout owned a septic
tank company in Fairfax.
He leaves his wife, Meredith,
and a son, Benjamin Lea, of
the home address; another son,
Samuel LaRue, of 201 Holly
street, Fairfax, and four grand
children.

resolution were cut off after a
few minutes by a motion to end
debate on the issue. Mr.. San
ford aSsailed the elimination
in this assembly of the free
market place of ideas" and
argued that both sides should
have been given the opportu-
nifty to debate the issue fully.
The delegates did pass a reso-
luton offered by the legislative
committee protesting loyalty
oathS for eachers or students
beyond those required of any
citizen" but did not mention
the Ober Law.
A spokesman ror the aSSocia-
ton said that the group OPP
posed the Ober Law when it
was enacted but the staff now
feels it would be useless to take
up the fight again.
A resolution asking that seq
regated member groups pro
coed to deSegregate" was Of
fered by Montgomery delegates
and passed in a watered down
form.
Edward Kenney of Mont
gomery pointed out that a reso-
luton similar to the Mont
gomery proposal almost passed
last year and that now is the
time to act"
Delegate Urges Peace
Several speakers protested
that member associations are
desegregating, and after a long
wrangle the resolution was
amended to recommend that
the associations continue to
desegregate."
Wallace Smith, delegate from
Dorchester County, said it
would be better to take ten
years and bring it (6eSegrega-
tom about in a nice, happy
frame of mind" rather than
do it with possible bitterness.
Dorchester is one of IL counties
which have separate associa-
tons for Negro and white
teachers.
The State association passed
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1961-10-22

without comment a resolution
similar to one passed in pre-
vious years urging completion
of desegregation in public
schools. Although desegrega-
ton is the State school policy,
several counties have none or
have only token Indignation.
A resolution was passed ask
ing that a division of higher
education be set up within the
State Department of Educa-
ton to administer the State
teachers colleges. The aSsocia-
ton turned down a Montgom-
cry resolution which would
have left open the possibility
of transferring the administra-
ton of teacher colleges from
the Department of Education.
The association asked for a
study of State aid for kinder
gartens. Montgomery County
and Baltimore City now oper-
ate kindergartens but receive
no State aid for them.

BALTIMORE, Oct. 2l.-The
Maryland State Teachers Asso-
citation today rejected resolu-
tons calling for reapportion-
ment of General Assembly seats
and for repeal of the Ober Law
requiring loyalty oaths.
The organization also watered
down a resolution which would
have put it Squarely on record
for immediate racial deSegrega-
ton of all member associations.
The controversial issues were
introduced by Montg cry
County delegates, and on the
re-apportionment issue, Mont
gomery and Prince Georges
delegates were on opposite
sides.
Irving Settler, principal Of
Glenmont Elementary School
in Montgomery, who introduced
the reapportionment resolution.
said that members of the asso-
citation teach democratic prin-
cipleS" and should not be
afraid to put itself on record in
favor of more representation
for the big counties in the
General Assembly.
He said teachers should give
more than Zip service to one
of the greatest democratic prin-
ciples"-that of equal repreSen-
tation.
Segregation AsSailed
Victor Parker, delegate from
Prince Georges, said the issue
is mot an educational matter"
and that members from his
county want it handled by the
teachers at the local level. He
noted that the Prince Georges
Teachers Association had joined
with the Maryland Committee
for Fair Representation in seek
ing re-apportionment.
Joseph Parlett of Anne
Arundel County urged the as
ISOLATION to steer clear of nom
educational matters and said it

mother"
Richard Sanford of Mont
gomery countered that ito
think that this has nothing to
do with education is ridiculous. >"
He and other proponents said
that reapportionment of Cen
eral Assembly seats would make
it easier to get better education
legislationt through the General
Assembly.
The proposal was turned
down by voice vote. Most of
the support for the proposal
came from suburban Montgom-
cry and Baltimore counties and
a few delegates from institu-
tons of higher education. The
two other suburban counties,
Prince Georges and Anne Arun-
del and delegates from the
small counties lined up against
it.
The resolution urging repeal

3 Leading
For Northrop
State Post

Three Of Montgomery Coun-
tvs top Democrats are leading
contenders for the State Sen
ate seat to be vacated on Tues
day by Edward S. Northrop,
party leaders indicated yester-
day.
Democratic chiefs said the
field may be narrowing to the
three - Delegate Margaret
Schweinhaut, Central Commit

County Councilman David l..
Cahoon.
The Seven-man Democratic
Central Committee is scheduled

vacancy created by Senator
Northrop's nomination to a
Federal judgeship, will sit in
the Legislatures session in Feb
ruary.
Two members of the commit
tee, Ray Murphy and Mrs. Mar
garet Carpenter, who were once
inclined to favor Delegate Blair
Lee III, now are repeatedly in
clined towards Mrs. Schwein-
haut. Mr.. Lee is a candidate
for the nomination to the
United States Senate.
The committee, however, also
Is said to be seriously consid-
ering Mr.. Cahoon, one of the
party's younger vote-getters,
and Mr.. Browning, who report
eddy would not run for election
to the State Senate in 1862.
Other contenderS, according
to party regulars, include Will
liam Hickey, county council
president, and Delegate Alger
Barbee.

Keep adding alternate layers
of leaves, fertilizer and soil un-
til the pile is four feet deep, the
agent says. Animal manure
lected. MIR. Vapaa suggests
may be used instead of dirt or
in combination with it if avail
able. It's a good idea to sprin-
kle each year with water to
insure plenty of moisture for
the rotting process, he adds.
When the pile is completed
add layer of soil a few inches
thick on top. Make this layer
lower in the center so it will
catch rainfall and keep the pile
moist.
