He criticized Charles Nice.

Simms also accused David
Scull, Maryland Republican
State Chairman, of being a
suspected turncoat." He said
Scull's primary aim is to make
the Republican Party as ineffec'

He also charged Scull with
allegedly urging Republicans
throughout the state to with

90 Bushels of Wheat
Paws Rent in Richmond

And the right to collect the 90
bushels Of wheat passed on to
Mr.. Chewing, who inherited
1t from his father.
Terms Of the agreement have
never been changed since 1t
first was recorded in the city's
deed books on January 4, 1902.
But the methods of compliance
have been somewhat modified.
In the old days, If the man
who owed the rent wanted to
pay in cash, he had to deter
mine the value Of wheat by
averaging the prices paid "at
the three merchants mills on
the north side Of the James
River"
The modern method is for
Mr.. Chewing to check the
market price of wheat listed in
the newspaper and send Mrs.
Strang a statement.
Anytime she gets tired of
fooling with this paper work,
all she has to do is load 80
bushels of wheat on to a truck
and send it to Chesapeake.

among youth. He said there
had been no racial clashes. or
gang fights between white and
Negro youths for some time.
However, he said, he believes
the annual figures for juvenile
crime, now being compiled, will
show an increase, particularly
in serious crimes. Chief winters
said at least eight juveniles
have been charged with homi-
eide in the past year, that he
recalls.
The juvenile expert said he
would like to have some more
men assigned to the Juvenile
Squad, to increase the number
assigned to school patrol work
and to obtain four or five more
cruisers for his division.
His overall aim would be to
give more thorough study to
the background Of juvenile Of
tenders. However, he said he
realizes Chief Murray is hard
pressed for men.
Recent decisions of the courts
have hampered the Youth Aid
Division in presenting cases to
General Sessions Court and
District Court after the Juve-
nile Court has waived jurisdic-
ton. Chief Winters said. Much
Of the evidence obtained when
q Juvenile is under Jurisdiction
Of Juvenile Court has been
ruled inadmissible in the other
courts, he said.
Chief Winters said he favors
maximum security confinement
for juveniles involved in serious
offenses.
He added that he feels pro-
fessional youth workers and
those associated with the
youths In the place of confine-
ment should decide when the
youths reach IS years Of age
whether they should be re-
leased or remain in custody
until they are 81. At present,
such release is governed by the
terms Of the sentences they
receive.

addition results from a Virginia

otherwise.
While Seator Fenwick has
no Democratic opposition, he is
being challenged in the Novem-
