given these facts though the Montgomery
County states attorneys office must or
should have known them all when it held up
the girl in court to be an innocent victim, as
it drove to convict the three defendants In
deed the prosecution succeeded in barring at
both trials nearly all the character evidence
the defense attempted to introduce.
The three young Negroes were not inno-
cence personified. AS they emerged through
the darkness from fishing expedition in the
Patuxent river and encountered the girl and
her friend in parked car not far from the
Giles boys home, fight ensued. Whatever
happened then, the girl herself testified she
was not beaten and witness who saw her
soon afterward described her as appearing
"cool, calm and collected"
But this is not the point The awful point
is that if the defendants had been white they
never would have been convicted of rape, I'M
der the circumstances, and even if they had
they would not have been sentenced to death.
1t has been Is years since Maryland's last ex-
ecution for such crime. If anybody needs
proof that we still have in this country, not
equal justice under law, but different justice
for black and white, this tragic case furnishes
it. But for the precious public conscience of a
few private citizens the three real victims
would already be dead In a letter from death
row to Knapp year ago, John Giles wrote
that his own mistake was not going right
home from the river but the biggest mistake
of all was giving myself up to the police vol

raping teenage girl and sentenced to die
in the gas chamber. They might already be

Major water and sewer
line projects proposed for
construction by the Wash
ington Suburban Sanitary
Commission during the next
five years were being studied
this week by the Montgom-
cry County Council.
County Councilmen are
armed with full legal author
ity to veto any of the prof.
ects but they must do so
prior to WSSC adoption of
the projected plans by Oct. l..
Highlights of the WSsC plans
include:
Payment of about 1913 mil
lion to the District for sewage
treatment costs.
Expansion by 1865 Of the
Potomac River Filtration Plant
from 80 to 70 million gallons a
day at a cost of $2.3 million.
Construction of a nine-mile
long, 66-inch ipeline down
River Road from the Potomac
Plant to Bradley Boulevard to
serve the Western Suburban
Area, and ultimate extension of
this major new line to the Silver
Spring.Takoma Park area.
Extension of the North
Branch of Rock Creek sewer
line to 5000 feet north of Bowie
Mill Road, near Olney, for 1867
68. Sewer lines would reach
Olney by 1865 and the James
Creek and Reddy Branch areas
beyond Olney by 1866. Pumping
stations taking the effluence to
the North b IT a n c n OF hock
Creek would be necessary for
these two areas.
Construction Of a pumping
station and force main in Rock
Run for $150,000 to sewer the

tory septic tanks made headlines

versed the conviction of the
Communist party Of the United
States on charges that it failed
to register as an agent Of the
Soviet Union.
A new trial was ordered.
The party was convicted on
Dec. q, 1862, after a long legal
battle over the Subversive Ac-
tivities Control Act. Under the
act, any organization controlled
or infiltrated by the world
Communist movement is re-
quired to register with the Sub
versive Activities Control
Board.
A jury of eight women and
four men found the party guilty
and Judge Alexander Holtzoff
imposed the maximum fine Of
$12O, 900. The party appealed
and the verdict was reversed in
today's decision.
The government claimed that
the party failed to file the
forms required by the SACB.
The party claimed it could not
have filed the forms without
getting someone to incriminate
himself.
In today'S opinion, the ap-
peals court ruled that the gov
eminent should have shown that

Some problems seem to oc-
cur most often. When should a
girl start wearing makeup? How
often should a teen-ager 60 on
dates? How late should they
come home? Should they 90 on
single dates? What about going
steady?
The answers to these CUES
tons vary with the circum-
stances. A parent and child
should discuss them fully. It is
important that the child under
stands the implications. This
does not mean that the child
makes the decisions. That is the
parents responsibility. The par
ent should not be a dictator on
all questions, but he should not
neglect his duty to set reason
able standards within which the
child must stay.
There are many extra-curri-
cular activities which are avail
able. 1t is not intended that one
child should participate in ev-
erything. Such activities as
band, orchestra, debating teams
dancing lessons, school news
papers, etc, are meant to meet
the interests of particular chill
dren. The child should not over
schedule himself, but he should
plan his activities so that he
has a variety of experiences.
AS children grow older, the
tendency is to reduce exercise.
The schools have a physical ed
ucation program, but this must
be supplemented on the outside.
Unless a child is on an athletic
team he needs to participate in
additional physical activity. This
along with proper diet and rest
are important to health.
The aim is to help a child
grow in all areas.

Farm Talks Set
By Ministers,
Common Market

BRUSSELS, Belgium (UPI)-
Agricultural ministers of the six
Common Market nations Tues,
left the major problem of a
Franco-G erman deadlock on
farm prices to their foreign
ministers and turned to discus
sion Of minor details.
The foreign ministers, cur
rently attending a meeting Of
the North Atlantic Treaty Or
ganiZation (NATO) council in
Paris, were expected to be in
Brussels Thursday to deal with
the impasse that threatens to
wreck the Common Market.
The agricultural ministers cut
short the discussion of major
decisions on a unified farm
price and subsidy policy Mon,
day. Informed sources said they
decided the matter was more
political than agricultural and
was better left to the foreign
ministers.
