A neighbor- to-neighbor pro-
gram designed to help ease the
transition Of a rural family to
urban living was announced
yesterday by the Washington
Urban League.
Sterling Tucker, executive d.
rector of the Washington
league. said the program, the
first Of its kind in the Nation,
has been designated Friends
and Neighbors" and will get un-
der way.July /.
I'VE are very excited about
this project, which will serve as
a pilot for the Nation" Mr..
Tucker said at the annual insti-
tute Of the leagues board, staff
and committee members.
The day-long institute was
attended by about 100 persons
at the Mclean CVa.0 home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Mortimer Lebo-
WITT. Mr.. Lebowitz Is immediate
past president of the Washing
ton league.
Pilot Program
Under the program, Mr.. Tue
ker explained, a settled Wash
ington family will be matched
with a newcomer family to help
the new family adjust to metro
politan living. The families will
be carefully selected and viii be
as similar as possible In back
ground and other circumstances.
The neighbor family, Mr..
Tucker emphasized. will have
strengths to compensate for
the weaknesses of the new
conner family.
The League will select fewer
than so newcomer families for
the pilot program, he said.
Henry Steeger, New YORK
publisher who is president of
the National Urban League,
said Washington was selected
for the pilot program because
the local Urban League lis one
of the most efficient in the
whole country"
Future Aims
"Out Of this we expect to
generate a pattern for other
metropolitan cities which are
experiencing a wave Of migrant
families" said Mr.. Steeger.
I'VE have q very strong feeling
it will be successful"

eording to Robert c. Wilson,
rate manager Of the Washing
ton Gas Light Co. The case in
wolves the Atlantic Seaboard
Corp, an intermediary pipeline
distributing company which
sells to Washington Gas and
10 other wholesale companies
In mid-Atlantic States.
Although the refund will be
relatively small, the hearing
also involves a proposed basic
change in the way Atlantic fig
ures the cost of the gas it sells
to Washington.
II adopted, Mr.. Wilson said,
the proposal could raise Wash
ington's cost of gas $485, 900 a
year, based on purchase for the
IL months ending last April.
This would not be enough to
wipe out the refund or rate
reductions, but would make the
Washington area home gas
customer pay relatively more
than home customers in Balti-
more, for instance.
I'VE will be in there battling
to try to keep our rates down, "
Mr.. Wilson said.
h Increase Granted in 1860
The FPC allowed Atlantic
Seaboard to raise its rates to
Washington Gas and its other
wholesale customers April 5,
1860. The increased revenues
1t collected, however, were made
subject to refund of whatever
portion Of the increase the
commission found to be excess

The increa sed cost was
passed along to customers of
Washington Gas, which has

$4,000 in Pep Pills,
Two Suspects Seized

MARTINSVILLE, Va, June
16 (AP)-State Police uncov-
cred a $4,000 cache Of pep
pills" here today and arrested
two men believed part Of an
East Coast ring.
The arrests here followed the
apprehension of two Henry
County. Va, men at a Laurel,
Md. motel last night.
Police here discovered 410, 900
Of the pills in the home Of one
of the men and in an aban-
doned automobile.
State Police Sgt. j. H. Barnes
said the two men arrested here
today are Bobby Shelton, 81,
and Floyd Eanes, 81. A few of
the pills were found on Eanes
and 326. 900 were found in Shell
toms home. Another $4,000
were found in the car.
State and federal officers in
Maryland last night arrested
Henry G. Ferguson, Al, of Bas-
sett, and Charles E. Eagles, 43,
Of Martinsville. More than
$4,000 tablets were seized,
authorities said.
Maryland officers said the
arrests there eliminated a

They described Ferguson and
Eagles as among the principal

quently determined that about
5000, 900 of this annual increase
should be refunded. This must
now be pro-rated among the
companies buying from At
lantic.
The annual refund and re-
duction in rates for all the
companies from April /, 1861,
on was fixed at about $500 900.
During 1861, FPC records
show, Washington Gas pur-
chased $30,710,965 in gas from
Atlantic. 1t buys from 80 to 40
per cent of Atlantic's gas and
is its largest customer, accord
ing to Mr.. Wilson.
The proposed change in At
lantic's basic way of charging
for gas is in the ALLEGATION of
its fixed costs, such as depre-
citation for pipelines. This would
load more Of these costs on
companies which have a great
er proportion Of space-heating
customers, which are, In the
main, residential and CONNER
cial. About 80 per cent of
Washington Gas sales are to
such customers, a far higher
proportion than in areas such
as Baltimore, where there is
more industrial gas use.
Demand is Seasonal
The basic reasoning behind
charging more for gas for space
heating is that it is seasonal.
The company must maintain
enough pipeline, compressors
and other equipment to supply
the maximum amount of gas
used during the cold winter
months. During the off-season,
the delivery capacity is still
there, but the gas sales are far
below capacity.
To compensate for this, At
lantic charges q fixed amount
for maintaining this capacity.
This is known as the demand"

Air-Lune Control
Being Checked to
Improve Sufety
By the Associated Press

The Federal Aviation Agency
will make an intensive study of
the Nations air traffic control
system to ferret out mistakes
that might lead to collisions in
the air.
The study starts May 9 and
will last two months. The
agency is selecting a nine-man
team of air safety experts to
make the check.
Charles w. Carmody, chief
of the FAA's Operations Evalu-
alton Division, is in charge of
the new program. He said the
study would look into error
potentialitieS that have shown
up during the past six months
and see if there was a pattern
to indicate weaknesses.
The team will be aided by
FAA experts in aviation medi-
cine looking into instances of
ulcers, heart attacks and nerv-
out breakdowns among hand
lers of air traffic.
The FAA is trying to improve
air safety in other ways as
well, such as use of a telemetry
belt to be worn by Controllers
who are being examined for
reactions during periods of
stress. Sensors are attached to
the body to pick up responses
of such things as pulse rate
and blood pressure.
