Born Housing 21Cited
As Argument for Code

DR.. Harold Kennedy, Fairfax
County health officer, today
cited q converted barn in which
81 people live as an Illustration
Of the need for immediate en-
actment of a county minimum
housing code.
The dwelling, he said In a
report to County Executive
Carlton G. Massey, has no
plumbing facilities. Five fam
lilies living there must carry
water 80 feet from a well in
buckets, he added.
"The living conditions are de-
plorable," he said. "Only a
minimum housing ordinance
can correct this kind Of situa-
ton"
The report was made after
, q complaint was received on
the dwelling. which is near
! Falls Church, DR.. Kennedy said.

An inspector investigated yes
terday and reported:
Five families live in the build
ing: some Of them live in one
room.
Altogether, 10 children live in
the structure.
There is only one outdoor
toilet for use by all.
Two families live on the Sec
ond floor; one family has to
climb a "rickity" outside stair
way which has no handrail.
The county is powerless to
correct most of the conditions
existing in the structure with
out a minimum housing ordi-
nance, DR.. Kennedy said.
After the inspection yester-
day, DR.. Kennedy said he would
order the owner to install q
satisfactory sanitary pit privy''
for each family and to clean up
unSanitary garbage conditions.
Beyond that. he said. his de-
partment could do nothing.
The 1850 census listed more
than 2.500 houses in Fairfax
County without water, toilet or
bath, DR.. Kennedy said. An
other 1900 houses had no
toilet or bath and only cold
running water.
Conditions have not i'm
proved since that census" he
said. He estimated that be&
tween $500 and 1900 houses
are presently delapidated in the
county.
County Sanitarian John New
man, who made yesterdays in
spection, called the structure
a very poor excuse for living
quarters.
In one upstairs apartment, q
man, wife. and grown son live
in enc room. he reported. In
another a family with four
children live in two rooms.

Concerning Berlin

We simply cannot be drawn into a war
over German politics. Pronouncements of
American policies by German officials should
cease. The time has come to realize that there
are and should be two Germany's, thus it
shall be in our time. A united Germany has
been too great a nuisance to all the world
We have no obligation to change the situa-
ton. We have transcendent duty to the PEG.
pie of the West to avoid nuclear war, to nego-
tate and not to aggravate the situation with
hysteria
Berlin should be free city under the
aegis of the U.N Indeed. it would be the best
possible place for that body to sit. In Berlin,
we of the West Russia and her followers the
committed nations and the occasional neutral
could deliberate at the very vortex of differ.
ences between Moscow and Washington
We cannot afford to let our blothersIaite
Russophobes paint us into any more political
corners. We must give ourselves room to bar
gain in our own best interest. Stubborn in
transigence is no policy at ALL and continual
~ bIdbbering our position in advance leaves
us no alternatives at the council tables. If
the present administration can offer no better
solution to- world differences than to advise
us to dig holes in the ground then its in
stincts are Neanderthal and it should abdicate
world leadership to the aborigines.

Adenauer has made superb play where
in all would-be office holders in Deutschland

here to give us sermons on our obligations to
their electorate to convince us that they are
the bastion of freedom. Most recently we
