He points out that a tourist
is free to wander any place in

Sees System Reasonable
But If the tourist wants a
guided tour, Mr.. Johnson says,
it seems reasonable to charge
him for the service, as he is
charged at the Washington
Monument or at the entrance
Iof a National Park.
Mr.. johnson added that the
cost of placing the guides on
a payroll would be somewhere
in the neighborhood of $780,
900. More guides would have
to be hired.
The decision, according to
one member of Congress, rests
largely with the Speaker of the
House.

Roye Lowry in deriding the

Chairman Ernest Wilt de-

with the intention of assisting
parents who wish to keep their
children out of racially inte-
grated public schools.
"It was one of the most in

of Virginia. In Arlington, it
imposes an unnecessary tax
burden on people who are pro-
viding a fine public school
system by requiring them to
help pay for private schooling"

public funds should be used

going back to sea after Michael
was killed and the rest of his
family went back to England.
The Condettis were reunited
in Washington last Friday
when the slender, brunette
Mrs. Condetti returned from
England at Government ex-
pense to testify at Alvey's trial.
With her came their other
three children. Teresa, IA;

THE WITNESSES: The Gov
ernment subpoenaed 81 wit
nesses and the defense scheduled
20; however, many points have
been agreed to in stipulations
which may shorten the trial
to about one week.
THE JURY: Twelve citizens of
Maryland, plus two alternates,
will be selected to determine
whether Joseph Alvey is the
man who abducted Michael in
Brentwood Village in North
east Washington and took him
to his death across the Mary
land State line. This jury can
find Alvey not guilty, guilty
with the death penalty, or
merely guilty. Or it could fail
to reach a decision at all.
If it recommends the death
penalty on a guilty verdict,
Judge Thomson has no choice
but to sentence Alvey to the
gas chamber. If it returns a
guilty verdict without the death
penalty, the judge may SEN
tence Alvey to any term of
years up to life.

BALTIMORE, Jan. a.
Monday at 10 am. the paths o1
the Condetti and Alvey fam
lilies will cross in a courtroom
setting Of heightening drama
here.
At that hour, Joseph Halver-
man Alvey, AZ, will enter the
high-ceilinged courtroom Of
Federal Judge Roszel C.
Thomson to go on trial on a
charge of kidnapping 7-year-old
Michael Condetti.e
The little boy, whose body
Is buried in Arlington Gene
terry, was kidnapped near his
Washington home in Novem-
ber, 1860, and was sexually
assaulted and suffocated in a
wooded area Of Ardmore in
Prince Georges County.
Judge Thomson yesterday
denied a defense bid for dis
missal Of the kidnapping indict-
ment. Alvey's attorneys had
contended that the warrant for
Ibis arrest was obtained with
out probable cause and that
the indictment was obtained
through illegally secured evil
dence.
The Judge also denied with
out prejudice a defense motion
asking the return of a state
ment which defense counsel
claimed was unlawfully taken
from the defendant by two
FBI agents.
This is the setting Of the
trial and here are some Of the
key figures:

Post Office and Courthouse
Building at Calvert and Fay

supervised by United States
Marshals, is on the fifth floor
