Low and Order Stressed
BY Georgia Winner

ATLANTA. Sept. Is (AP).-
Youthful, ambitious Carl E.
Sanders took only eight years
to vault from raw campaigner
to Georgia's Governor-no
and maintain a perfect victory
record in politics.
The 37-year-old attorney
keynoted his vigorous campaign
on honesty and decency in
government: he promised to
lead Georgia up a road Of
progress and prosperity.
Segregation isn't an issue
it's q problem" Mr.. Sanders
said in reply to the main
theme Of his chief opponent,
former Gov. Marvin Griffin.
Mr.. Sanders. pledging to
maintain segregation, said little
about racial problems but urged
law and order as the best
course for Georgia.
When his nomination-tan-
tamount to election in this
State-became a reality last
night, Mr.. Sanders said, This
is q great victory for the people
of Georgia"
No G. o. p. Rival
ut shows that the people Of
Georgia want to keep their af-
fairs within the framework Of
law and order" he said in a
victory statement.
Mr.. Sanders has no Republi-
can opposition in the November
general election.
He sturnped the State to ap-
peal for votes and denounce
Mr.. Griffin's 1868 tenure as
years of graft and corruption.
Mr.. Sanders, broad should
cred and erect, campaigned
with the energy that made him

Enactment chances all but
evaporated today for a bill that
would give the District a 81
million-a-year Federal school
payment.
With time running out In
the congressional session. the
measure remained trapped in
the House Education and Labor
Committee by political maneu-
vering.
Today, for the third consecu-
tive meeting, hackers Of the
bill failed to muster the votes
to win committee clearance.
Under one provision of the
bill, the District would be in
cluded in Federal aid foI
schools overcrowded by children
whose parents work for the
Government.
Meet In Late September
The legislation, introduced
by Representative O'Hara
Democrat Of Michigan. is de-
signed to expand this i'm
pacted" school aid program to
most major cities.
The committees next regular
meeting Is scheduled for Sep
tember 81, close to the expected
end Of the session. A special
committee meeting would have
to be called by the chairman,

Stalled in Committee

the IL am. opening of the
House session-the cutoff time
for the committee meeting.
Representative Bailey, Dem
ocrat of West Virginia. acting
chairman in Mr.. Powell's abb
sence, managed to get the
quorum after negotiations with
some Republican members who
were standing by in a nearby
room.
Agreement Reached
Two Republicans, Representa-
tives Paul Griffin of Michigan,
and Ashbrook Of Ohio, joined
IA Democrats after an agenda
agreement with Mr.. Bailey.
The arrangement was that
two non-controversial bills
would come up for action when
the meeting opened. The two
Senate-passed measures, one
dealing with educational bene-
fits for deaf children and the
other with benefits for railroad
workers. were reported out.
The background to the quo
rum problem repeatedly is this:
Chairman Powell and Repre-
sentative Green, Democrat of
Oregon, reached an under
standing earlier in the session
with Chairman Smith of the
Rules Committee on prospects
for Mrs. Green's college-aid bill.
Representative Smith, DEM
ocrat of Virginia, took the
position that Congress should
not have to consider more than
one major education measure
this session.
With this position in mind,
Mr.. Powell informed the Rules
Committee chairman that the
House Education and Labor
Committee would clear only
one education bill - Mrs.
Green's legislation.

The congressional campaign,
compared to the other contests,

Mr.. Weltner needed Mr..

dicated he might fight q bit
harder In the days before the
runoff. He promised a "vig-

Perhaps sensing that Geor-
gians, particularly Atlanans,
were tired Of race batting.
Judge Davis never brought the
subject up.
Previously, he has been out
spoken In his support of hard
core segregationist groups and
had built his own reputation
along those lines.
As returns in the Davis

faces another struggle in No

Vital to Downtown

The success of the drive to improve
the business and shopping areas Of
central Washington depends to large
degree upon the ability Of the city to
utilize urban renewal powers in the ex-
cluSively commercial downtown section
an authorization not specified in the
D. c. Redevelopment Act of 1945. 1t is
good news, therefore, that Representa-
tive AuchincloSS of New York has intro
duced bill to correct this deficiency
PurpoSely, it is simple bill, with
single purpose. It contains none Of
the controversial provisions, and has no
relation to, the omnibus measure con-
Sidered earlier this year which would
have re-organized urban renewal pro-
cedureS and agencies in Washington.
The authority which it seeks already is
available through Federal legislation to
other cities. Without it here, the encour-
aging steps taken thus far by the Ma
tional Capital Downtown Committee
would be severely crippled. We hope, for
the welfare of the city, that the House
District Subcommittee headed by Repre-
sentative Burke Of Kentucky will give
the bill early and favorable considera-
tion, so that it may clear Congress

Park Police Trials

There's an ironic twist in the news
that the Park Police soon may have
a trial board procedure for maintain
ing discipline and building efficiency.
For Chief Harold F. Stewart, the man
who long eSpouSed this machinery, is
cooling his heels on the sidelines, out
Of favor with the Interior Department.
Before he was baniShed to Guam
last year to Straighten out police prob
lens there, Chief Stewart was caught
up in the vortex of power struggles with
in the department, political pickering
and other diSSenSion.
Chief Stewart, as have others before
him, found it impossible to effectively
control quasi-military organization
without appropriate means. His only
disciplinary recourse was through long,
involved Civil Service channels. BY the
time that was under way, many factors
might work on behalf of the criticized
policeman, such as interceSSion by some
friend on Capitol Hill.
Through legislation now about to
clear Congress, the Park Police chief
(whoever he is) will at last have power
to Summarily suspend a refractory
policeman and to file charges. Under
the system, the StiffeSt possible penalties
would be 500 fines or seven-day SuS-
pensions. Obviously the police COM
mander will be in position to cope
more effectively with personnel prob
lens. Any abuses of that power would
be checked by competent three-man
trial boards and right Of appeal to
the Secretary of the Interior.
Chief Stewart is not likely to have
the pleasure of running the new-styled
department. His SuperiorS in Interior
have him working on preliminary
report" on Guam police methods. After
that he is expected to prepare final"
report. He has refused to quit under
fire and no one in Interior, in what we
think has been a disgraceful perform
ance, has seen fit to prefer charges
under Civil Service. If Chief Stewart
retires after the Guam reports, as seems
probable, 1t will not be he who should
be ashamed Of the record.

Poll Tax Vote

AS we have already indicated, the
question of what to do about the poll
tax, in our opinion, is not one of the
major issues which confrontS the Con-
greSS in the closing weeks Of this seS-
sion. Nevertheless, it is troublesome
matter which can and should be dis
posed of before the legislators call it
day.
The House is scheduled to vote
Monday on a proposed constitutional
amendment which would outlaw the
poll tax. The amendment, sponsored
by Florida'S Senator Holland, was ap-
proved by the Senate last March on a
n to Is vote. And it will have to be
approved in the House by at least a
two-thirds majority.
At one time the poll tax was a hot
issue. This isn't true today. It is in
effect in only five States and the tax
itself is nominal. No Negro who wants
to vote will be barred by the poll tax
Nevertheless, it furnishes a certain
amount Of ammunition to demagogues
who like to traffic in phony issues. 1t
should be abolished. And the proper
way to abolish it is through conStitu-
tional amendment-not through some
highly dubious exercise of an assumed
legislative authority. For these reasons,
we hope that Senator Hollands pro-
poSal will receive the required two
thirds majority when the House votes
on it,

Juvenile Crime

I feel compelled to COM
ment on the conclusions you
draw in your editorial of
August 16 on the Arlington
youth who is being charged
with the armed robbery of a
Virginia bank. I must heart
lily agree with you that juve-
nile crime and acts of vio-
lence are not confined to any
one locality. 1t is unfortunate,
however, that judicial syS-
TENS and correctional agen-
cies are judged and frequently
condemned on the basis Of a
cursory review Of spectacu-
lar cases. These institutions
which generally welcome pub
lie interest seldom seem
worthy of editorial COM
ment when they are trying
to cope with the never end
ing supply of human prob
lens that they deal with
daily.
1t is regrettable that you
condemn the procedures used
by the courts and correction
al agencies without giving
consideration to the made
quacy of the facilities avail
able to handle delinquent
youth. Virginia has no inSti-
tuition available for the treat
ment Of delinquents with Sc

unless they are classified as
psychotic. Few delinquentS
fall into that category. The
psychiatric facilities available
to the Virginia training
schools are scarcely worthy
of mention. One psychiatrist
serves four training schools
and a study home, with a
daily population Of well over
one thousand children.
The public expects a treat
ment and rehabilitative pro-
gram, while these training
schools are barely able to
provide a custodial function.
During the past six years.
the average stay has declined

This policy Of releasing chill

The training schools for

mended by the Children's

No Time to Chonqe

It would be foolish for the District
government to drag in task force"
of outside experts at this late date to
try to develop a comprehensive" pro-
gram Of welfare reforms for submission
to the Byrd committee within the next
couple Of weeks. The Commissioners
have acted wisely in rejecting the idea.
At best, city officials face a man
killing job in order to perfect the
specific budget proposals, backed by
solid facts and figures, which Senator
Byrd has ordered. No doubt the essential
decisions already have been made on
the requests to be sought. The entrance
ola new committee into the picture at
this time inevitably would introduce
an entirely new set Of considerations,
which could not possibly be given the
study needed in the limited time avail
able.
The Com SionerS moreover,
through their frequent conferences with
Senator Byrd, are in the best position
to know what proposals are expected,
and which have practical chance Of
adoption. While the details have not
been disclosed, the city heads repeatedly
are concentrating on two major efforts:
Q) To extend the steps already taken
to assure that relief funds go only to
those recipients truly deserving Of them,
and (2) to provide for needy children
whose parents, because Of their conduct
or for other reasons, might not qualify
for public relief. We hope that these
reports are accurate. 1t is quite evident
that not all of the shortcomings and
that not all Of the changes which may
be desirable or necessary in the multi
farious aspects of the welfare program
can be made within the next several
months. There will be ample time,
therefore, to seek and to consider the
views of community groups. But the
diSgraceful disclosures of the last few
months should leave no doubt in any,
ones mind that the most urgent need
Is a top-to-bottom housekeeping of
Welfare Department policies and pro-
cedures. And nothing should be per-
mitted at this time to divert attention
from the steps which are necessary to

Indeed, this will be "revoiu-

a translation. It will be a
perverSion of the Bible much
like the Revised Standard

is simply a further effort to
