Board Vote
Boosts Pay
OfWhittier

The salary of Montgomery
School Superintendent C. Tay-
lor Whittier was raised $1,000
to $4,000 a year last night by
the board of education.
In approving its $72 million
budget for the coming year,
the school board voted the pay
boost to DR.. Whittier with only
one dissenting vote, by Robert
E. Morrow.
Mr.. Morrow said he had OPP
posed DR.. Whittier's reappoint-
ment last year because it was
for four years instead of a one
year term.
IT was in favor of a one
year appointment for evalua-
ton, and I don't feel that some
situations have been corrected"
DR.. Whittier already receives
the highest annual salary OF
any school superintendent in
the Washington area. Closest
is Carl F. Hansen Of the Dis
trict school system, who earns
$4,000.
DR.. Whittier's increase, and
the budget itself. are subject
to final approval by the Mont
gomery County Council.
The school board earlier had
cut $2.6 million from DR.. Whit
tiers original budget requests
It did not reduce the proposed
teachers salary increase which
will set up a scale ranging from
$4,000 to $1,000.

Appeal Against Arrest
Without Warrant Lost

In affirming a housebreaking
conviction today, the United
States Court of Appeals cred
tied police with a proper arrest
even though they had no
search warrant at the time.
Appellate Court Judge War;
rem E. Burger noted that Sam
mic Jackson, jr., in appealing
his HOUSEKEEPING conviction,
had claimed police did not have
probable cause for the arrest
because they had no search
warrant when they came to his
apartment in the 1900 block of
Benning road NE, last March.
Detective Sergt. Marvin j.
Sears and Detective Andrew
j. Farrell went to Jackson's
home after they were told by
a friend of his that he had a
rhinestone bracelet that had
been stolen in a HOUSEKEEPING
two weeks earlier.
Judge Burger, noting that the
question of probable cause for
arrest lis not to be evaluated

Economic Issue
He told the Senate Courts
of Justice Committee, Il sub
init, this is not a religious is
sue; we are not dealing in re-
ligion. Virginia believes in re-
ligious freedom and what one
does is a matter of conscience.
What we are dealing with is
an economic issue"
Committee Chairman M. M.
Long said he would appoint a
three man subcommittee to-
day to study all four bills.
(Three other bills and a res
olution also are pending in the
House.)
Senate Bill 1865, like most of
the others, deals with items
that can be sold on Sundays
and would not change the pro-
hibitions against certain bust
ness operations. The measure
would add all types OF food
or human consumption, hy-
gienic articles and items for
minor home repair to the list
of things now permitted.

Stedmon Prescott, Jr.,
In Circuit Court Race

Stedman Prescott. jr., Chevy
Chase attorney, yesterday be-
came the fourth candidate for
nomination to a new judge
ship in the Montgomery County
Circuit Court.
Mr.. Prescott, whose father
is a judge of the Maryland
Court of Appeals and was a
Circuit Court judge in MONT
gomery County for 10 years,
joined Plummer M. Shearin,
Joseph M. Matthias and John
P. Moore in the race for the
SIG, 500-a-year judgeship.
In 1860 he tried unsuccess-
fully for a newly created judge
ship which was later filled by
Judge Ralph Snure.
Mr.. Prescott, a graduate of
the University of Maryland
Law School. has been a deputy
State attorney general and
spent eight years as Garrett
Park town counsel. He lives
at 1906 Cardiff road.
The judgeship candidates, wy
ing for a 15-year term, all
crosS-filed for both the Demo-
cratic and Republican pri-
maries, a customary procedure
for those seeking judicial office.
Another new candidate, seek
ing a Republican nomination
for an at-large seat on the
Montgomery County Council,
is Leo j. Paulin, editor and
publisher of the Paulin Papers
in Bethesda.
He is a trustee and past pres
ident of the Camp Echo Lake,
and a board member of both
the Montgomery County chap
ter of the American Cancer So
ciety and the Montgomery
Health and Welfare Council.
Two Republicans added their
names to the list of those filing
for County Council positions.

from a remote vantage point
Of a library" said the two de-
tectives had a good basis for
believing jackson probably had
committed the HOUSEKEEPING
The judge added that the
question of probable cause can
better be judged from the
viewpoint Of a prudent and
cautious police officer on the
scene at the time of arrest.
The judge said that in such
cases no one factor of infor-
nation can necessarily consti-
tute probable cause.-The ques-
ton is whether, considered to-
gether, all the information was
enough"
He said this involves some
thing of a balance sheet proc.
eSs." He added that police car
rely on information which
would not be admissible in ju-
dicial proceedings, including
rumor, gossip, common con-
versation, general reputation
and hearsay.

doSages usually reserved for
fellow Republican candidates.
In separate messages, Rich
ard Nixon and Barry Gold
water agreed that the Tenth
district is lucky to have the
man it has.
Though kept away from the
Bipartisan" affair by illness,
Democrat John L. Mcmillan,
chairman of the House District
Committee, sent word that Re-
publican Broyhill is lone of the
most effective and conscien-
tious legislators on Capitol
Hill"
Jouett Shouse, who was
chairman of the Democratic
National Executive Committee
from 1929 to 1882, evoked
cheers by citing the small de-
Walton between the votes of
Joel Broyhill and Howard
Smith (the Democratic chair
man of the House Rules Com
mittee)."
Responding appreciatively,
Mr.. Broyhill declared that the
external threats to the Nation
no longer are the gravest ones
because Americans of both par
ties recognize and are prepared
to counter them.
THE greatest threat to mans
freedom has always been and
always will be the power of CEN
tralized government, the con-
slant encroachment of central
government upon the rights of
the people," he warned.
LAS we take funds from Wash
ington, we give up some of our
economic freedom and rights"
Continu ally emphasizing
States rights as a bulwark
against fatal socialism, he said,
after referring to the racial
problem, IF its solution means
wiping out or obscuring the
boundaries of States rights,
then I say the end does not
justify the means"

RICHMOND, Feb. "a State
Senate subcommittee will be
appointed today to try to find
a solution to Virginia's blue
law" prohibiting certain sales
and business operations on
Sundays, described as "ridicu-
lous and unreasonable" by one
legislator.
Surprisingly enough, the re-
ligious issue never was raised
by those defending the present
law in an hour and a half
hearing yesterday on four bills
suggesting four different ap-
proaches to the problem.
One of the measures, Senate
Bill 166, appeared to be the
center of attention by those
who upheld as we'll as those
who attacked the present law.

Assembly Action Neors
On Reopportionment

Elections Committee yesterday
killed a proposed amendment to
the constitution repeating the
poll tax, sponsored by a Re-
publican, Senator James c.
Turk of Radford.
Senator Turk, in arguing for
his constitutional amendments,
said Virginians have not had a
chance to vote on poll tax re-
peal since the Campbell
amendments" were offered in
1913, which was before I was
old enough to participate in
government" He is SO years
old.
He said Virginia could not
take pride in the low number
of persons voting. In the 1860
presidential election, he said,
less than 80 per cent of the
adult population turned out.
Only four States, all in the
South, had smaller turnouts.
Cites Governor Race
In last years gubernatorial
election, less than II per cent
voted for both Republican and
Democratic candidates.
THAT MEANS" Senator Turk
said. "the present Governor
received only II per cent Of
the votes of the adult popula-
ton"
The committee reported the
House-approved bill of Alex
andria Delegate James M.
Thomson, allowing a recount
when. the votes of the two
highest candidates for the same
office are within per cent of
each other.

ImendationS.
Sought Indignation Unit
Mr.. Smith also has been ac-
tive with groups which have

FAIRFAX ORDERS SHOWDOWN
ON HOUSE TRAILER INFLUX

The Fairfax Board Of County Supervisors decided
yesterday to slow down the rapid influx of house traers
into the county.
The county already has almost many traiers as
all other Virginia metropolitan jurisdictions combined
said Board Chairman William H. Moss. The supervisors
agreed that the number of people living in alers should
exceed per cent of the population of the county
Fairfax has 1919 tralers-more than the city
of Alexandria, and the counties Of Arlington Loudoun
and Prince William combined.
The restriction would mean according to a
planning report given the board yesterday that only 521
more trailers could come into the county.

RICHMOND, Feb. 8.-As the

Senate Bill lit by Senator
James c. Turk, Republican of
Radford, adds bacon and eggs
to food now allowed to be sold,
and permits a store one viola
ton without penalty.
Senate Bill 141 by Senator
E. E. Wiley of Richmond
would limit the items that
cannot be sold to those specifi-
cally listed in the present law.
All items not specifically men,
toned would be exempted.
Senate Bill 38, also by Sen
ators McCue and Purcell, would
permit local referendums to au-
thorize sale of food, hygienic
articles and items for minor
home repair, but the sponsors
now prefer Senate Bill 1865.
Hits Hodge POdge"
Senator Purcell said the 1860
Legislature, in amending the
law, developed a hodge-podge
so that today it is practically
impossible to determine what
you can and what you can't
do on Sunday"
Many of the defenders of the
present law blamed publicity
surrounding their arrests or
threatened arrests for creating
demands for a change.
James P. Mathews, president
of the Virginia Retail Mer-
chants Association, charged
1.-The confusion resulted from
unfair and sensational pub
licity."
Il have yet to find one per-
son. Mr.. Mathews said, who
has been Inconvenience be-
cause of his inability to make
a purchase on Sunday"
He said the trend to Sunday
selling developed first in
Northern Virginia and the Nor
folk areas among supermarkets
and discount stores and "the
movement spread like wildfire. "
Philip F. Herrick of Fairfax
County, representing Highs
Dairy Products Corp. with 80
retail outlets in Northern Vir-
ginia, supported Senate Bill 1865.
Uncertainty Cited
He said about 35 per cent
of his sales are for items other
than dairy products and prac-
tically all of these are food
items.
One prosecutor, Mr.. Herrick
said, believes the law prohibits
sale of dairy products on Sun
days. Senate Bill 166 would
eliminate this uncertainty" he
added.
Daniel N. Bondaref, repre-
senting food retailers in four
Northern Virginia counties,
said the present blue law
makes it necessary for many
people to buy in restaurants
and pay two or three times
as much for food" as they
would have to pay in stores.
Being next to the District
Of Columbia and Maryland,
where Sunday sales are permit
ted" he added. places us at a
distinct disadvantage"
