Because the ,entire city could not be covered last week end, the time has extended for anQ.- thcr week to give everyone a chance to help.

November 9 will bE: known as "Good Turn Day" in the enth'e' Washington area, and the National Capital Area ('_ouncil, Boy Scouts of America, in this project. In Greenbelt the local F!re De- partment will do their good turn by making their station available for collection depots of tilled bags. Residents are urged to fill up the bags with repairable clothing, shoes, and household textiles, and to place them on their porches for the scouts to pick up the morning of November 9. The Goodwill Industries is a project aimed to :>rovide jobs and training fer disabled or handicap- ped workers. The n.aterial will be cleaned, repaired and sold at nominal prices at the Goodwill store.

Cenl:er PTA To Hear Perkins And Rit:chie A request by a member living fn Califomia to :;:enew for the fifth straight year the privilege of sub- letting his Greenbelt house touched off a policy dJscussion on absentee ownership. The board decided to, have management prepare a report-. analyzinc existing subletting a.- rangements in ol:'der to determine the extent to which the practlee has reached undesirable propor- tions. The general policy In the past. ha.s been to permit subletting for periods up to two years where temporary absence from Greenbelt was involved. Some members of the board felt that continual re- quests for extension of this .period indicates an intention not to re- turn to Greenbelt, and such mem- hPrq should be made to dispose of their property. · Lately another type of absentee ownership has developed, arising out of departing GHI memben who, unable to dispose of ·their units at the price desired, . choae to st:blet them for a limited peri- od. Again, .some board members felt that any ex!:ensions of these . periods Pould be undesirable. &les The board received a report on thl'! resale of Greenbelt housing unit.;; during the period January 1 to August 31, 19157. Of units sold during this period. 102 were sold by the GHI Sales Of- fice. The dollar value of '"hese sai12B amounted to $444,100 out of a total $781,000. HomP.a sold directly by owners were valued at $132,900, and Greenbelt Realty Company sold the remaining homes with a market valuation of $204.000. The board voted to retala the services of Mrs. Helen C. Ditman. in the limJten capacity as attomey. Mrs. Ditman had originally been «)>pointed a year ago represent GHI as real estate broker, but services of this nature were no I..mger needed with the recent li- censing of Mrs. Mary Jane IUnzer., Sales and Service Supervisor. New Scout: Troop Forms . The necer.sity for another :8o3" ' Scout Troop· in GreeniJeJt baa prompted the Mowatt Memorial Methodist Church to take to sponsor such a unit.

The board decided to, have management prepare a report-. analyzinc existing subletting a.­rangements in ol:'der to determine the extent to which the practlee has reached undesirable propor­tions.

The general policy In the past. ha.s been to permit subletting for periods up to two years where ~ temporary absence from Greenbelt was involved. Some members of the board felt that continual re­quests for extension of this .period indicates an intention not to re­turn to Greenbelt, and such mem­hPrq should be made to dispose of their property. · Lately another type of absentee ownership has developed, arising out of departing GHI memben who, unable to dispose of ·their units at the price desired, . choae to st:blet them for a limited peri­od. Again, .some board members felt that any ex!:ensions of these . periods Pould be undesirable.

&les The board received a report on

thl'! resale of Greenbelt housing unit.;; during the 8~month period January 1 to August 31, 19157. Of 1~5 units sold during this period. 102 were sold by the GHI Sales Of­fice. The dollar value of '"hese sai12B amounted to $444,100 out of a total $781,000. HomP.a sold directly by owners were valued at $132,900, and Greenbelt Realty Company sold the remaining homes with a market valuation of $204.000.

The board voted to retala the services of Mrs. Helen C. Ditman. in the limJten capacity as attomey. Mrs. Ditman had originally been «)>pointed a year ago t~ represent GHI as real estate broker, but services of this nature were no I..mger needed with the recent li­censing of Mrs. Mary Jane IUnzer., Sales and Service Supervisor.

" "We let Letters • • • • • ''A CLEAR CUT ISSUE'' To the Editor:

Tnoughtful citizens, anxious to keep the administration or their civic business on an efficient and honest basis, free from · political bosses and corruption, long ago established the Councii-1\fanager fonn of government - whereby a competent manager would adminis­ter the policies of the dtizens' elected council, sitting as a unit In public forum (no behind the scenes collusion, pressures or in­fluences), and run the dtizens' affairs on a strictly busineas basis. So Ze.r .:ous were citizens for this protection, that they even pro­vided that any co"-'ncilman who would attempt to induence the manager in the hirin&' and firing of any employee, would himself be subject to prompt removal from of6.c•e. This plan has served C!reen­belt wdl and satisfactorily for twenty y~ars, anfi\ has given the citizens the muchly desired bene­fits stemming from non-political appointments of competent and experienced civic personnel.

Now come three men sitting on tl~e Council, who suddenly desire to take unto themselves a say so about who gets a city appointment

-and who gets fired. This is the opening wedge in the wall to open up all the repugnant evils c,f poli­tical control and corrupti<1n. I hope that every thoughtful citizen and organization in Greenbelt will resist the efforts of tllese three counci1men ··to the bitter end.

I am only SOrrY that these three men did not reveal their intentions to the voters of this city until just after our recent election. t am surprised and diSappointed in their actions and in the timing of them. However, they have at least now provided a clear cut is:me for the next election in Greenbelt. I urge the citizens of Greenbelt to watch and record carefully the actions of these three councilmen during the coming drive to put over· .their proposal - one that would crack the citizens' protec­tive - wall of Council-1\fanager government, and subject the ap­pointment and firing of city per­sonnel to cheap political and per­sonal pressures and influences.

HOUSING FJCTJON To The Editor:

Once upon a time 'there was a City which was- dedicated to the children of' its inhallitants. ItB roadways were limited, it had un­derpasses, parklr, and playgropnds­for the safety ancf cr:njoyment of its youth. No vicious d"op ran loose. and no cats littered" sandbm:es and play areas. The postmen were­happy as no dogs snapped at them, but instead, children greeted them.

\

Suddenly, tb~ peacef'ulness of the community waa shattered by a small group. of citizens who felt that the town needed notorious­pubHclty. They defted the wishes of their fellow neighbors and the contracts which they signed In good faith and imported dogs and cats­to annoy. their neighbors. Some persons whose employer iboasted" that they were •good nelli!;hbora"' were swept up in the rebellion against a policy which was follow­ed faithfully by a majority of the dwellers. Where formerly neigh­borly greetings were In order, these "rebelien,. now wore the si­lent masks ~f a persecuted pecple.

The dlllgent members of the Housing Board were accus~d of running a dictatorship, thc.ugh no barbed wire or atomic weapons­surrounded the development, speeches were free, appeals were beard, and the greatest number ot ·members e'SJ'reaaed thelt" eonft­dence in the"'Board In any numbel' of eleetlona.

The case agalnat the evktlon or the members who owned pets dra&"ged throup the lower· C"Ourta and Into the Supreme Court where a hearing Ia 11eheduled next month, November 2S. 1901.

COMPROMISE? To The Editor: 1

Thia concerns the dol' laue. It is too bad to see a community

so divided over a matter whtcl; ~. after a:ll, not so vital as manY otb- • ers. We are aware of the principle involved and of the need to uphold it; but we have been wonderinC whether a device, used 80111etlmeat when new zoning regulation• muat be applied to old areM, mJ&'ht not be a sound basll for eompl'OIIlllle and a return to friendly relationa all around.

In legal language It I• eaJ1ed the "non-conforming use." The old 11M ie allowed to go on for a specified time, usuallY the reaacnwbly ex­pected life of the property, at the end of which time the new princi­ple is applied.

Why couldn't the pets be aUO\Ved under suitable restriction to eta3' with their owners for their life­times if the owners in return wnuid agree not to acquire any new oneS'. ·

'!..ast week I wrote a column on Ru~ell Greenbaum. It started out something like this:- "I understand when he was a student here? can you taught Russell G~nbaum you te1l me som~thing about hls behavior as a student?'', I asked the elderly and slightly hard of hearing teacher who Is still prin­cipal of Russell's old Alma Mater.

.. Ah, that Russell Greenbaum", be sighed, shaking his head sadly, "I suppos-e you're another proba­tion officel', eh? What's he done this time?" he added hopeleuly.

Then it got better or worae, de­pending on your point of view and devotion to th2 PTA. But Editor Zubkotl thought it might b6 too rough on poor old RUMell, and after re&ding the letters to the editor in la.at week's Issue, I had to agree.

So I thought I would wander over to Greenbaum's kind of cas­ual - like and cheer Russell up a bit, if possible. I fo•1nd Mrs. Greenbaum and two carpenters busy in the back ·yard and after some usual small taJk like, "'Dld you see the Sputnik at 3:10 a.m. this morning?", I noticed they were building a small edifice in the yard. 'Tm a little surp~d", I confessed to his good wife. "I didn't expect you would be keep-ing a pet". ,

''We don't have a pet", shE. as­sured me.

..But the dog house you're build­ing? It is a dog ·house, isn't it?"' I asked in bewilderment.

By Russ Greenbaum

Two weeks ago I made some com­ments about the first Center School PTA meeting . . . And then the roof fell in!

It's not that I'm a coward, but I'm writing this week's column from my newly instal.ed atomic bomb shelter-guaranteed against blast, searing heat, and deadly radiation (although the sa:esman was less certain about angry fe­males). The bomb shelter also doubles as a dog house--and I don't hav•e a dog.

* * * What would happen to the city

government if Ben Goldfader.'s proposal for increasing the city council's responsibility is adopted? This is not an easy question to answer. The~ are pros and cons, and perhaps it cannot be known until it is actually put into practice.

Whether or not it subverts the city manager form of government, as is feared by Mayor Tom Can­ning, I do not believe it will turn all department head positions into political appointments. Although the Goldfaden pl'.Jposal would give the council the veto power ovc r the city ma,uager's appointment~,

the council or the individual mem­bers of the council will not be able to select their own choice. The city manager will still be the man who selects the final candidate for the jol>. Although the council conceivably could veto every one of his candidates until the ruling triumvirate (the big three) got the man tb"!y wanted, this would be an extremely difficult and awkward maneuver as well as being an ob­vious one that would discredit them.

The big question would be how much would it hamper the city manager in carrying out his duties and functions. As I said, perhaps it is impossible to tell in advance and therefore a trial run is needed -say· about two years. If the city manager felt that he was unable to perfonn his job properly under those conditipns, then he could present his !>ase bolstered by actual experience. That might be the time for the residents of the city to decide in either a regular elec­tion or a referendum which way the city government should move.

fl~w fu~ds For Polio /,n additional $2000 in emergency

n:d h:1s bePn receh'ed by the Prince GPPrge·!< County Chapter of the Ka!ionai Foundation for Infantile Paralysis bringing to $27,000 the t oUt! of I'UCh <'mergency funds re­('r>·,.,d here this year. Percy L. \Yo'fe. chairman of the county polio chapter, reports the situation il1 Prince George's County differs only in degree from the problem bci11g National Foundation chap. tn·3 throughout the county. "In 1953, the Prince George's Chapter' ~pent $59,070 to help 111 patients, m the state $357,940 was used, '1.\'hilc a total of $21 million was spent throughout the United States.

··Last January the March of Dimes raised $24,000 for county pa­tient-s. and we have already had to ask $27,000 more from our national orgar.ization. In 19!i6, our emer­gency help amounted to $29,000 for the whole year, so it is obvious that before the end of 1957 we will have used more money for polio care than in 1956. \

"This must come as a"tremendous shock to the public, just after the announcement that polio incidence is down . 80 per cent from last year," Wolfe continued. "On the one hand comoes the news that polio is pretty much on the way out - then comes news that the

lcSALE.:.

I

bill Isn't quite pai~ yet." Wolfe went on to indicate that

next .January the 1958 March ~f Dimes will mark ·the anniversary of twenty year!f' of serv1ce to the American people. "These have been years in wlJich this wonderful rrf('anization brought relief to the thousands of polio sufferet's and now has brought the general pub­Ur a means to end polio as a health menace. The job hm't ended with the Salk vaccine, however," Wolfe stated.

The chapter chairman pointed out the heavy expense borne- by the National Foundation in carins for 80,000 past victims of polio still needing March of Dimes help. 'l,'hia responsibility didn't end with a polio vaccine, he noted; "you just don't forget about the battle wounded after the victory I~ won. We mul!!t go out In .January to raise as much or mure than we did this year to assure the rehablllta­tion of these 80,000. Otherwise, there will always be a black mark on our nation's record showing thl~ job that Is so near completion waa left undone."
