District 10 Get
First Supplies
For Shelters
BY CHARLES d. PIERCE
Star Staff Writer

Public fallout shelter supplies
for 100000 persons, including
one million pounds Of biscuits
will start arriving here late in
February, George r. Rodericks,
District Civil Defense director
says.
He told the Building Owners
and Managers Association OF
Metropolitan Washington yes
terday that this will be the
initial shipment of supplies
being purchased by the Defense
Department to stock public fall
out shelters in Washington.
He said that on arrival here
the supplies will become Dis
trict property and will be stored
at the Naval Weapons Plant
until they can be distributed to
the shelters.
The first six public shelters
Will be set up here late next
month.
Mr.. Rodericks said that while
maximum use will be made of
Government buildings, shelters
will also have to be installed
IN many large private buildings.
He appealed to the members
OF the Building Owners and
Managers Association to CO.
operate by permitting estab-
lishment Of public shelters in
their buildings.
The District Commissioners
today authorized the use of
city employees and equipment
to move the supplies from the
Naval Weapons Plant to the
first six buildings.
Mr.. Rodericks said owners of
private buildings found to be
suitable for shelter will be
asked to sign license applica-
tions authorizing use of their
property.
In addition, the civil defense
director said at the luncheon
meeting at the Willard Hotel
that private owners will be
asked to permit stocking of
supplies in their buildings.
Mr.. Rodericks said that while
the high-wheat content biscuits
being purchased have little or
no commercial value, some of
the medical and other supplies
to be furnished must be pro-
tected from theft.
He added that the more
valuable equipment will arrive
in metal boxes that can be
locked.
Mr.. Rodericks told the build
ing owners that they would be
asked to permit use of their
structures as a public service
and would not be paid for as
sistance in the shelter program.
The civil defense director also
asked the building officials to
cooperate in helping to develop
a shelter management plan
which will spell out shelter
conduct.
The supplies that will start
arriving here next month will
be adequate to supply 100000
persons for two weeks, Mr..
Rodericks said.
The civil defense director
said surveys are still being
conducted to find additional
shelter areas in existing build
ings.
This is just the beginning"
he said. There will be many
more than 100000 shelter
spaces in the CITY,"
He added that all public
shelters will be marked as such
and directional signs will be
erected inside to point the way
to shelter areas.
Discussing one possible fall
out shelter area. he said the
Dupont circle tunnels formerly
used by streetcars could pro-
tect an estimated 10000 persons
| if the open ends were closed.

School Budqei
Cut Ordered
BY JOHN STORM
star staff Writer

The Montgomery County
School Board has given supt.
C. Taylor Whittier until Mon
day night to weed out between
$2.5 and So million from his
1923 operating budget.
Expressing their reluctance,
board members nevertheless
agreed last night that the re-
quest for $3.50 millions so
million increase over last year
must be scaled down before
it is submitted to the County
Council.
The board, which last week
gave DR.. Whittier virtually all
of the $16.5 million he had
asked for school construction,
acted at a special session called
after a public hearing on the
operating budget.
Opposition Voiced
OF the Is speakers at the
hearing, two voiced major op-
position to the fund request
The others gave qualified sup
port to the whole budget, TAX
ing issue only with smaller
items.
The budget proposal covered
four major areas-funds to
meet a growing enrolment, q
raise in teachers pay, an
administrative reorganization
plan and supplementary meas
ures aimed at improving the
quality of county education.
While the board left DR..
Whittier wide latitude, mem
bers agreed the first to 60
should be items in the quality"
section. These would add to
such programs as television
instruction, adult courses, IL
brary services and counseling.
Board Member Robert E.
Morrow noted that in the past
he had backed many of these
improvements, but pointed out
that even after q So million
cut the budget would require
a significant increase" in
county taxes.
Support Expressed
At the hearing, Joseph Els,
president of the county coun-
Gil Of PTAs, expressed strong
support for the full range OF
budget proposals.
He said the group viewed the
program as another step, and
not a very big one," in refin-
ing the school system. Left in
tact, he said, the recommenda-
tions would still fall short Of
goals set by the PTA.
Mr.. Els suggested, however,
hiring new teachers with the
$4,000 set aside for evaluating
candidates for raises. He said
the PTA council favored incen-
tive pay. but not under the
present system.
Representatives of the Allied
Civic group and the Bethesda
Chevy Chase Civic Council
called for large cuts in the bud
get, primarily in administrative
funds. The Allied Civic group
urged that the entire reorgan-
ization plan be dropped.
See Higher Return
The American Association of
University Women recommend
ed hiring an administrator for
fiscal affairs, holding that
sound management would bring
"a higher return on the budget
dollar"
A $4,000 item for adult edu-
cation was opposed by the
League Of Women Voters, the
County Civic Federation and
the Allied Civic group, all Of
whom thought the program
should be self-supporting.

The Feminine Figure
Returns Presently

The feminine figure has return
files, panels and flares, the shape
moves, flows and sways. Fit is
achived through scanning.
Sense of freedom is the keynote
in the designs. There are m n y
shapes, not just one. Clinging fab
rics and clever scanning accentu-
ate the figure-never cOncealing it..
There is a definite movement to
flatter the bustline. High-riding
belts, shaped insets or weli-placed
darts accomplish this plan. Move
ment is added to slim dresses
through bloused or draped backs,
swinging jackets and capelets.
Many necklines are cowled or
ruffled on some of the softer line
dresses. Skirts can be flared or
pleated, inset with godets or flow
ing with cores or panels. Straight
skirts are still to be seen soften
ed through the waist with fullness
The trend is still toward short
skirts but they should be worn at
length becoming to the wearer.
Simplicity marks the style i n
daytime dresses, coats and suits.
Beautifully tailored, they achieve
feminine appeal through body-cOn-
scious shaping and lifting of the
bustline Details which soften their
severity include lingerie touches
on the collar of a dress, chiffon
shearing edging, a cardigan jack
ct, jabots on a blouse beneath a
suit, or important buttons or braid
trimming on coat.
