Carter Glass
Honored by
$4,000 Bill.
BY the Associated Press

A $4,000 bill honoring the
late Senator Carter Glass of
Lynchburg, Va, was issued for
the first time yesterday by Che
Treasury.
Members of the Glass family
and Senator Harry F. Byrd,
Democrat of Virginia, were
present for ceremonies at which
one of the first copies of the
new bill was displayed by Sec
retary of the Treasury Dillon.
The bill isn't currency but a
type of Treasury security ma
turing in a year or less. Bills
have long been issued in de-
nominations up to ST million
but there has never been a
$4,000 bill before.
Senator Byrd, a close asso-
ciate of Senator Glass in his
26-years in the Senate, ex-
pressed to Mr.. Dillon "the ap-
probation of all Virginians for
this tribute to Senator Glass"
Each member of the Glass
family was presented a bro
chure by Mr.. Dillon commem-
Grating issuance of the $4,000
bill.

he looked in 1919 when he was

the time teachers we're touch
ing up the schools.
He said a survey showed that
rs teachers in Prince Georges
County were painting schools
last summer.
Mr.. Sullivan also objected to
convicts painting bridges sand
the like. He said convicts. are
brought daily to the University
of Maryland from the House of
Correction at JeSsup to- do
paint jobs.
He thought convicts might
better be used cleaning up
roadsides and parks instead of
taking "gainful employment"
away from painters-"union
or non-union."
Mr.. Sullivan also doesn't
think much of the States con-
vict-operated paint-manufac-
turing operation at Jessup.
Convicts, he said, get a little
training in paint making at
JeSSup and when they are re-
leased they 60 to Baltimore,
where they try TO hire them
selves out as paintmakerS.

Pointers Would Brush

The Brotherhood of Painters
wants Maryland to legislate
teachers and convicts out of
the painting business.
Maynard Sullivan told Mont
gomery County legislators last
night that teachers who dabble
at painting in the summer are
taking jobs away from paint
ers. He thought they ought to
stick to brushing up students.
Mr.. Sullivan, who represents
the painters union, said the
practice of school boards hir-
ing teachers to paint schools
in the summer is prevalent
over the State"
Everybody always says we
ought to help the teachers
well, this is a two-way street, "
Mr.. Sullivan declared. IF we're
going to pay taxes to pay
teachers, they ought to stay in
their own field"
Teachers may be cheaper
and some of them can slap on
a pretty good coat of paint,
Mr.. Sullivan admitted, but he
said that out-of-work painters
were drawing $35 a week un-
employment compensation in

Members of the Committee
of 100 on the Federal City met
yesterday and debated their
own position in opposition to
the Districts highway program.
After 21a hours of discussion
they voted to adjourn and left
hanging a motion calling for
closer cooperation between
three key planning agencies.
Of, The group had been called to
a special meeting to reconsider
a letter detailing opposition to
District plans for proceeding
with Inner Loop freeWay prof.
ects and construction of pro-
posed Three Sister Islands
bridge.
The letter already had been
sent to Mrs. Elizabeth Rowe,
chairman of the National Capt.
tai Planning Commission, ask
ing that agency to:
l. Withdraw approval of
pending District highway prof.
ectS not now under construc-
ton.
2. Make a comprehensive
land use study and a study on
the impact of transportation
development on the Districts
fiscal affairs over the last 20
years.
3. Consider future transpor-
tation proposals in light of
total impact" on the District
and surrounding communities.
Transit Plan Cited
The letter listed reasons the
highway project should not go
ahead and included statements
that the 1859 Mass Transporta-
tion Survey was incomplete and
rejected by Congress. It also
urged that highway projects be
delayed to give the National
Capital Transportation Agency
time to draw up a rapid transit
plan.

Mr.. Thomson said the plan

Still another bill by the Alex
andria Delegate would allow the
judge of the Corporation Court
to appoint special justices to re-
place justices of the peace who
now are elected. Mr.. Thomson
said this plan already is in ef-
feet in Arlington County and
he would extend it to Alex

The Arlington House delega-
ton offered a bill allowing
reciprocity With the District. OF
Columbia and Maryland on the
collection of taxes.
The measure, requested by
the County Board, would per-

either local or State taxes due

agreed to.

Rood Stand Unchanged
By Federal City Unit

At yesterdays meeting, at
tended by about SO members Of
the committee, Harland Bar
tholomew, city planning con-
sultant and former chairman of
the NCPC, criticized the letter
for containing what he de-
scribed as "misinterpretation"
and "miS-statements."
Mr.. Bartholomew contended
the transportation agency was
not established to draw up an
entirely new transportation
plan but was created to proceed
with a transit development pro-
gram.
Plea for Beauty
Knox Banner, executive di-
rector of Downtown Progress,
emphasized that both freeWayS
and rapid transit are being
counted on in plans for revital-
izing downtown.
Agreeing with some highway
opponents who fear the danger
to the beauty of the city, Will
liam E. Finley, executive direc-
tor of the NCPC. urged the
committee to remain concerned
with the "beautification and
design" of future freeWays and
rapid transit. But, he said, the
decision to go ahead with the
highway project will e be re-
Elected in the budget to be sub

days.
Towards the conclusion of the
debate, Mr.. Bartholomew made
a motion urging close co-opera-

mission, the transportation
agency and the Federal Bureau
of Public Roads-in developing
a transit program.
But it was this motion that
was left on the table when the
ended in a hasty ad-
journment. AS for the contro-
versial letter. it still stands.

RICHMOND, Jan. 16. Ar
lington's State Senator Charles
r. Fenwick is the new chair
man of the Senate Welfare
Committee.
AS ranking member of that
group, he was elevated to the
top post vacated by former
State Senator Robert Y. But
ton of Culpeper, who was in
stalled as Attorney General
Saturday.
The vagar ies of politics
being what they are, freshmen
Republicans in both the House
and Senate failed to fare as
well as Democratic newcomers
in appointments announced
yesterday.
State Senator John Alex
ander of Warrenton, for ex-
ample, who was elected with
the backing of the Democratic
organization, was appointed to
the major committees of Gen.
eral Laws and to the Counties,
Cities and Towns Committee as
well as to the Welfare Commit
tee.
Republican Delegate Glenn
A. Burklund, who defeated Mrs.
Dorothy McDiarmid, Democrat,
in last November's election,
was given relatively minor as
Signments by House Speaker E.
Blackburn Loore, a Democrat.
Mr.. Burklund's committees
are those on Public Property,
immigration, Library and We'll
fare, the latter being his top
ranking assignment.
Another new Republican
member, Richard H. Middleton
of Albermarle County, who de-
feated former Delegate E. C.
Compton, Democrat, last fall,
was assigned to the Committees
on Retrenchment and Economy,
Enrolled Bills, and Library,
which seldom are required to

Star Staff Writer

RICHMOND. Jan. 16.-Ma-
chinery to make it easier to
obtain a recount of ballots in
closely contested elections was
set in motion yesterday by
Delegates James M. Thomson
of Alexandria. himself a one
vote winner of a Democratic
primary after a recount.
A second bill would prevent
"one-shot" balloting when two
or more seats are to be filled
for like offices in the same
area, such as on local govern
ing boards or for the General
Assembly.
Mr.. Thomson, the apparent
loser by four votes of the Dem
ocratic nomination last July,
charged then that certain ir-
regularities at the polls had
occurred. A three-judge spe-
cial court ordered a recount
which gave him the one-vote
margin over Denis K. Lane.
Under his bill, the candidates
who come within l per cent of
the total vote Of winning an
election may, within 10 days,
petition the court for a recount.
Under the present law" Mr..
Thomson said, you have to
charge such things as fraud,
errors or similar irregularities.
My bill would entitle the loser
of any close race to a recount
without bringing an actual
contest of the election"
No Appeal
The remainder of the bill
would follow present practices.
The judge of the local court
would sit with two outside
jurists appointed by the Chief
Justice of the State Supreme
Court of Appeals. The measure
spells out the procedure that
was followed by the judges in
his own case, in calling in all
chief judges of the election and
allowing each candidate to Sc
lect an equal number from
among these to do the actual
counting.
There would be no appeal
from the courts finding, just
as there now is no appeal.
The second Thomson bill
would result in the candidates
running for specific seats in
the General Assembly or on To-
cal governing bodies when all
are selected at-large.
For example, Arlington now
has three delegates, all elected
at-large. In the future the seats
would be alphabetically identi-
fled. John Doe would run for
seat A; Richard Roe for seat B,
and Jane Doe for seat C.
Alexandria now has only one
delegate but may obtain a Sec
ond one under a reapportion-
ment plan before the Legisla-
ture.
The bill would prevent sin
gle-shot' voting as we now have
it," Mr.. Thomson said.
BY single-shot voting, an Or
ganized group can increase the
chances of one particular can
didate by voting only for him
when the rest of the votes are

home. The former Ambassador to the
United States and delegate to the
United Nations (Which he helped
create), issued both a tribute and
warning at the same time to the Ameri-
car people:
"Never forget, Americans, that
yours is a spiritual country.
"Yes, I know that you are a prac-
tical people. Like others, | have mar
veled at your factories, your sky
scrapers and your arsenals.
"But underlying everything else
is the fact that America began as a
G%od-loving, God-fearing, God-worship-
ping people, knowing that there is a
spark of the Divine in each one of us.
It is this respect for the dignity OF
the human spirit which makes Ameri-
ca invincible. May it always endure"
The words of General Romulo are
truly Something To Remember" as
reported in a feature by hat name in
This Week magazine.
And in saying them this distin-
p'ished man gave us the key to con-
tinued greatness for ourselves as a peo-
pie and our nation = to give God the
prnner place in our lives and to live
with proper respect for Him and
oil Il fellow creatures, practicing the
kind of bedrock. basic integrity in our
daily living that marks all real Christ
ian people.
Adhering to these high principles
and ideals throughout the week, as
we'll as Sundays, will enable us to keep
our nation both good and great.
And it will help keep Old Glory
flying every day over a strong, free
land and a free people.
