Stuhr Sees
Strength as
Crises Cure

Secretary Of the Army Stair
last night declared that our
country can prevent crises by
making it perfectly obvious in
advance that we have the
strength-in-b being and the un-
flinching determination to take
whatever positive action may
be required"
He further asserted that "if
we succeed in our determina-
tion to preserve freedom with
out war, it will be because
those who threaten freedom
can see that our intention to
stand firm is backed by the
military ability to do so. For
the Comm unists respect
Strength-and little else. And
their determination to domi-
nate the world is something
they don't even try to hide"
He spoke at the sixth an
nual Disciples dinner IN Ma
tional City Christian Church,
Thomas circle. The dinner is
held each year to honor mem
bers Of Congress and Top Of
ficials in government who are
adherents Of the Disciples of
Christ Church.
Among those present were
Senators Fulbright, Democrat
of Arkansas, and Long, Demo-
crat Of Hawaii.
The Rev. George R. Davis,
minister Of National City
Christian Church, presided.
Russell Chaplin, chairman of
the church's board, introduced
Mr.. Stahr.
The Secretary, a prominent
member Of the Disciples of
Christ Church, told the gather
Ing that America has become
great because it has held firm
" to mans right to differ.
More than 500 persons filled
National City Church for the
meeting. 1t was brought to a
close with DR.. Davis giving the
benediction. The invocation was
given by E. C. Berry, chairman
Of the church's board of elders.

while raises suggested for Other
employees were lower.
In addition, the report sug-
gested that many employees be
put into new claSsifications
more in keeping with the duties
they perform.
County officials in the past
complained that salaries paid
to Fairfax's $500 county and
non-instructional school en-
ployes were the lowest in the
Metropolitan Area. AS a result
they said, the county has been
losing its employees to sur
rounding jurisdictions.
The consultants' report noted
that IF a competitive rate is
not paid, the best applicant
will go elsewhere and the
county will get only those who
cannot qualify for the higher
paying jobs"
Single Schedule
But even more important,
said the report, "is the need to
keep the county positions prop
erly related to each other"
The report thus recon-
mended that the county aban-
don the three separate compen-
sation schedules now in effect
and institute a Single inte-
grated salary schedule"

said were based upon informa-

Earlier, supervisors received
a letter from the county's Tax
payers Alliance asking that the
county's proposed city charter
be published and that public
hearings be held on it before

Mrs. Anne Wilkins, vice
chairman of the board, said,
however, that the charter had
been discussed fully when II

with the boards previous plans
for consolidation with the town

when Circuit Court Judge Paul

rested and jailed here last week
on charges of "defaming'' the dis

charges against Rev. Jelks are de-
signed to prevent him from pur-
suing a legitimate program Ol
