Dickens Foresaw
Our w ade BrutOn

could presumably insist that no
one could speak on a State col
lege campus who did not believe
that the world is flat. Indeed,
under the Bruton reasoning the
Legislature could order that all
liberties be fenced off college
campuses. A citadel Of the free
mind, as he sees it, is just a
piece of real estate.
Mr.. Bruton takes the position
which was urged in the Scopes
trial in Tennessee nearly 20 years
ago when the effort was made to
outlaw the teaching of evolution.
He joins the forces which tried
to chain DR.. Billy Poteat and
other educators in North Caro-
lima colleges in the same period.
But he goes further on this. PRO
perty right" theory about State
colleges and freedom. He sug-
gests that current legislators
have right to limit freedom on
the peoples property at any time
in terms of their prejudices, pre-
ferenceS or fears.
AS Charles Dickens Mr..
Bundle said. IF the law SUD-
poses that, the law is a ass"
And, in this case, if the Attorney
General supposes what he saws
he does, not onlv is he "a ass"
but an out-of-date one at that.

Whether it's because they are
childless as class or merely
that they speak SO frankly and
freely of their personal affairs,
/ don't know, but it seems to me
that the married men in my part
of the Army have a great deal
OF marital discord. An amazing
number-of them have been mar
ried two or three times, and, TO
hear them talk, many are cur
rently thinking of getting I'M
married. This purpose is often
the basis OF plea for an emerg-
ency furlough. A not infrequent
basis for the same plea among
the single men is the necessity
of a hurried marriage or of an
attempt to make arrangements
to avoid one. Our commanding
officers usually grant such a
furlough and. if asked to, will
sometimes 80 to bat for the
man
.. 1t Leonard Rapport told
me Of an unusual Army court
ship. When was stationed in
Trinidad. he said, I had a
buddy whose girl lived in Bur-
lington. One of his letters to her
was delivered to a girl in Con-
cord who had exactly the same
name. Nobody knows why it went
to Concord. 1t was one Of those
curious mistakes that happen in
post offices.
The Concord girl opened
the letter, saw it wasn't for her.
and mailed it back with a note Of
apology. There was something
about this note that appealed to
Bill. He answered it, struck up
a correspondence with the girl,
and went 10 Concord to see ner
as soon as we we're shipped pack
to the States. When he returned
to the outfit he said he was 60
ing to marry her. They we're
married in Concord few weeks
later. 1t was the second time
that they had seen each other. y

Coin Dealer
Licensing
RuIedOut

Dealers in used coins and
stamps should not be required
TO obtain second hand used
property dealer licenses. Judge
Thomas c. Scalley ruled in eff
feet yesterday in the Court Of
General Sessions.
Jdge Scalley found Jack o.
King. who operates a stamp
and coin shop at 1918 I street
NV, not guilty Of violating
the second hand dealers license
law.
The ruling climaxed a year.
long dispute between District
stamp and coin dealers and the
District.
Clark F. King, chief Of the
law enforcement division Of the
Corporation Counsel's office
contended that such stamp and
coin dealers are dealing with
second hand items and should
have a license.
Miss Joyce Caps, attorney
representing the defendant,
commended before Judge Scalley
that coin and stamp dealers do
not come under this category
and that such dealers had been
operating in the District for
years without beng required to
take out a second hand dealers
license.
The ruling can have signifi-
cant repercussions throughout
the Nation, where attempts
have been made in some cities
to require second hand licenses
for coin and stamp dealers.

A Man With Ideas
By DANIEL POOLE
StoF Reel Estote Editor

Carl M. Freeman has come
a long way since he formed
his ideas about indoor-out-
door apartment living while
he was an apartment dweller
himself.
He's gentleman farmer in
Upper Montgomery County
now. He's also the builder Of
10 successful garden type
apartment communities hous-
ing about $4,000 persons in
the Washington area.
Now, Mr.. Freeman is ex-
banding his apartment ideas
to other areas Of the country
including De S Moines,
Iowa; Harrisburg. Pa; BalUi-
more and Annapolis. And his
newest development in the
Washington area is planned
for Alexandria.
Anticipating the areas
apartment boom more than a
decade ago. Mr.. Freeman
built his first apartments,
Americana Riggs. in 1852.
Il had a lot of ideas. in
GLIDING the first overall air.
conditioning and balconies in
moderate priced garden
apartments" he says. But
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1963-03-02

community also will have a
shopping center and large
recreation areas. He believes
that with the success of
of Americana Fairfax, this
coming approach will gain
wider acceptance in the
Washington area.
Mr.. Freeman attributes
the rapid expansion of his
firm to three things in par
ticular strong group Of
executives, an experienced
board of directors and man
agement in depth" which he
explains this way: ~
1--WE have the personnel to
do everything in our own
offices, ranging from land
acquisition, land develop
ment, market research, de.
sign, construction, and, fin.
ally. management. We are
able to take responsibility in
every phase of the opera
ton"
And these are the qualifi-
cations which now cause ma
tional investment firms to
come to him-quite a change
from the days when this man
with ideas was starting out.
