some time ago we heard a grisly anecdote about a
pregnant woman who asked a physician to eliminate the
posslohlty OF her unborn child living in the world as a
physical or mental defective.
The DOCTOR said that doubtless he could aid her If,
after the baby was born, she would bring it to him so he
could snuff out its life.
Needless to say, the woman was Mortified and said:
why that would be murder!" And the physician replied
that 1t is no less a murder to abort the unborn child.
AS a matter of fact, killing a defenseless child in his
rotners womb is even more monstrous because we not
only deprive him of life but in many instances we shut out
the possibility of a human soul receiving s%anctifying grace
through Baptism. The spiritual deprivation is even more
serious than the physical one, because it has eternal con-
sequences.
THESE thoughts come to mind in view of the widely
publlcized problem of Mrs. Sherri Finkbine of Phoenix,
Arizona, who decided to have an abortion when she learned
that a drug she had taken had caused a number of preg-
nant women to bear deformed babies.

projects could be estimated by
figuring that 10 cents on the
rate would yield $4,000. At
this rate, a total tax increase of
approximately $3.50 on real
estate and personal property
would be necessary to finance
the full $1.2 million. A tax
raise of nearly $3.50 would COW
er the George Mason construc-
ton costs.
The city's present tax rate
is 1922 per 500 assessed value
of real estate and 81 per 500
personal property assessed
value.
In his analysis of possible
means of interim financing
the city manager said that the
council could not borrow the
money because the situation at
George Mason was not an
4
emergency by charter defini-
ton. Councilman Harold Sill
verman took exception to this
point.
A council-school board meet
ing is scheduled tomorrow night
to discuss the report more
fully.
The council also scheduled a
joint planning commission

uary ID, to discuss redevelop-
ment of the central section of
the city.

a Cabin John Gardens resident
guilty Of keeping two bantam
chickens in violation Of county
law.
Mrs. Laura F. Warfield, who
acted as her own attorney, was
fined $40 and costs by Judge
James H. Pugh, but he SUI

Mrs. Warfield's next door

from 1880 am. until dawn, and

at the rear of her home, were
about 48 feet from the Booths

bantams are being kept in vio-
lation of the law"
Mrs. Warfield expressed her
willingness to sound-proof the
chicken coop and to dispose
OF the rooster by giving him
to a farmer.
However, I am opposed to
keeping just one by itself and
would like to have permission
to keep two hens" she said.
Jury Takes Five Minutes
The jury of of six men and
six women took less than five
minutes to arrive at their ver-
dict. After Judge Pugh dis
missed the jurors, he advised
Mrs. Warfield to acquire a farm
If she wishes to keep her live
stock or fowl.
IF I am not allowed to keep
domestic fowl, would there be
any objection to my keeping
pheasants?" she asked the
judge.
"Oh, I certainly would not
advise you to go Into that, as
You certainly would find your
self faced with many prob
lems," the Judge replied.
AS court adjourned, Mrs.
Warfield said she guessed she
would just get some homing
pigeons, which are excepted
from the anti-Chicken ordi-
nance.

Rental Office

Two gunner got almost ST.
200 in holdup late yesterday
at the rental office of the Ad-
olson Chapel Apartments at
1923 Fifty-second avenue in
Beaver Heights, Md.
They fled after tying up the
office manager, John E. Carter,
with neckties and electric cord
and leaving him in a rear stor-
age room, according to Prince
Georges County police.
The holdup occurred about 6
pm. just after Mr.. Carter had
closed the office for the day.
Mr.. Carter said the men
forced their way into the office
after he unlocked the door in
response to a knock.
He told Police Pvt. Harold
Russell that he was ordered to
face a rear wall with a rifle at
his back, while the one bandit
took about $1,150 in cash from
a desk drawer. The money rep
resented the days receipts, he
said.
Police said the men then de-
manded more money from Mr..
Carter and were directed to an
open wall safe in the storage
room. The men took an addi-
tional $25 from the safe and
SO from Mr.. Carter's wallet,
police said.
Mr.. Carter managed to free
himself in about 20 minutes
and went to summon help. He
said the bandits had pulled the
telephone from the office wall.
In a police lookout, the gun
men were described as Colored
and from Is to 80 years old.

on the books at about SIS
million.
From the testimony I con-
clude that some of these in

said.

the cash on hand and the in

came president last December

More Facts
Requestedon
RiverStudy

The Montg emery County
Civic Federation wants more
facts on the Potomac River
Basin study.
The federation made this po-
sition clear last night by urging
the Montgomery County Coun-
Gil to hold a public hearing and
by announcing that the fedora
ton plans a public discussion
of its own of the study.
The study, published in No
vember by the Army Corps of
Engineers, lacks sufficient de-
tailed data to permit an intelli-
gent and objective evaluation, p"
the federation said in a resolu-
ton.
Also lacking, the resolution
noted, is enough information
on the impact of a dam pro-
posed at Riverbend in Mont
gomery County. The Riverbend
dam is part of one of four al
ternates for development of the
basin.
The federation's meeting on
the study is planned during
February. 1t suggested the
County Council hold a hearing
about the end of March.
On other business, the schools
committee of the federation
reported a generally favorable
reaction to the county superin-
tendent's 1962-63 school budg-
ct requests. The specific COM
mittee recommendations in
dorsed by the federation in
cludsd:
l. Approval Of $3.S million
for a second county junior COL
lege to be located at Rockville.
2. Reduction in scope of a
gymnasium planned for the
present Takoma Park junior
college and use of the proposed
gymnasium at Rockville when
special facilities are needed.
3. Further efforts to save or
construction costs through re-
use Of architects plans.

opinion that Prince Georges
