M1cistrale Job Folds~ fiaes Don 'I Cover F~ee
By DoriN At~beJJ Mednick A mixture of commonsense, in
sight into human behavior, and sense of fair play has been the secret of Allen B. Morrison's success in his former position of Ml!l.gistrate in Greenbelt for the past two years.
Morrison will no longer officiate i~· that capacity because the otlice has been discontinued. "Things are rather quiet," said Morris•:)n, meaning the equivalent of "business ls bad." Motor vehicle violations alone once brought in $20(} a month, and there were many other types of fines in addition. Now, infractions of the law in Greenb•elt have become so rare that Morrison's salary of $25 a month has
• not b~en covered of late months by fines levied. He credits the diecline in business to the high mo!'al standards of Greenbett..
- For our many law-abiding citi-zens who have had little truck with a magistrate, Morrison expla!n.s hi~ function as issuing warrants for people who request them. Warr·ants may cover a multitude of offenses, including assault, non-support, drunken!less, reckless driv!ng. All local traffic violations we1re fined by Morrison: Now citizens requestin~; a warrant or summonE~d by one must appear in person to the court in Hyattaville.
Although Morrison did not have the authority to try cases, many persons preferred to be fined by him rather than seek a court trial. The court which has the right to apJ:,·rove or disapprove fines levied by Magistrate Morrison has always accepted them.
Morrison's fines did not depend on the pt>evious sleepless night or a pt)orly-digested meal, but on the sound principle that the state, as well as the law violator, should be given "a fair dt."8.1." He made cer·tain that the many people he's served felt. they were treated "fair and sq•Jare."
Tempered by the "if's and and's" of every case, Morrison has always endeavored to keep the huma:i), angle squarely in front of him.
.a. One of his happiest decisions oc,.,... curred when an irate husband and
wife, who had been tippling to·::. many beers, came to him requesting warrants for each other. Instead c•f performing strictly as a magistrate, he permitted personal interest and friendship. to enter. After a sympathetic session with both of them, they made up and are now living together happily, he notes.
Although he's had no formal training for the magistracy, Morrison fel:'ls a law education would be very hdpful. He gained good experience in Missouri where hE! .held a similar position.
Morrison has aiso played Santa• Claus fo't' the past several years at

City He1ds Pl11 P1sh To Curb lids' l•••ce
Methods of discouraging young~ters in Greenbelt from ahusing city-owned and commercial prop<·rty in thC' C'.-enter area were discus'icd last Monday afternoon in thE.· office of Greenbelt Consumer Services general manager Sam Ashelman. Attending the meeting were city manager Charles McDonald, policl" chief GE"orge Panagouli.;r, Mrs. Elizabeth Fugitt, principal of the Center School; Miss Thelma Smith, North End school principal; Mrs. Howarrl Hunt, vice-president of the North End PTA; Mrs. I. J. Parker, CentC'r School PTA president, and Mr. Chottiner, junior high school prin<:i pa I.

A.shelman di.s.::osed that childn:n are pilfering and damaging merch?ndise i:1 the variety store to the extent of about S2000 a yPar, damaging th1• drinking fountain, a;1d annoying patrons of thf! store. John Shaughness, manag•~r of the variety store, stated that the youngsters are abusing the shrubbery in the center area and art· not su.'3ceptible to admonishments. Children have been apprehended and their parents spoken to, but it had little effect, Shaughness admittC'd. Although the situation is w;ually severe during the first two months of school, he added, this year the acts of vandalism are ~reater than before.
MoPt of those present felt that there is a general lack of parental fmpervision and training; this situation has bccome noticeable because the <'hildren don't understand r<·spcct for private property. They blaml:'d Uw general moral breakdown nationally and the absence of working parents during the day. Propel' training in the home would do much to allc·.riat.e the proble.TI, thPy agreed. Others felt that a polic<'man stationPd in the Centet· would help inhibit mischief .
Cops Are Pals Panagoulis stated that it would
bt· impossible to put a policeman there. He str~ssed the unique attitl!dl' all Greenbelt children have towards the local police force: t.hey consider police officers as pet·s<mal friends No child in Greenbelt lou,ks with fear on a policeman, or considers him an enemy, Pana .. goulis maintained. ComparE~ to other communities nearby, Greenbelt is comparatively free from '\'&ndalism, he added.
l\lcDonald propsed ~.hat in the future all children caught pilfering be tut·ned over to the JA)lice. The parents will thc>n be called in for a conference to discuss the prohl<'m.
Meanwhile, school principal!> and PTA's will endeavor to work out a program to f~mphasize the .need to respC'ct private property in th•.• community. They ktcnd to stres'! the fact that although u,e !ed<>ral government owns most of the property t.hnt is mistr<'att•d, vandalism actually costs their parents indirectly.

Oriole Juniors Win Co. Championship
Th(; Greenbelt Orioles went their undefeat<.d way in winning \:he 1951 Prince Georges County Boys• Club bw;:eball championship, Junior Division. The Birds were top. team a1.1ong 21 squads entered in this season's scramble. Coach Bill Moore's young flock of Orioles won their loop title in one dozen games, adced three wins in the play-offs for their perfect record.
Outside 6ames brought somewhat stiffer competition and another duzen wins against only 5 losses, swelling the Flock's summer recc:-d to 27 victories in 32 games.
Pitching was never any problem for Coach Moore. He had a rightand ldt-hand choice that always proved tough on the opposition. Orthodo:ot Jim Stripling and young lt·fty Bill Moore almost equally dividt·d 192 innings of \york and dealt out 63 and 39 hits; and 35 and 60 bases on balls. respectively. Stripling's 12-2 record included a scant 18 earned hits and a no-hitter, while the lanky lefthander won 18 against 2 losses. game up but ten earned runs and r.a~ed up five shut-outs.
Big bats were carried by Bobby "Bing" Miller and Mike Cockill. Bing topped the Flock with a .41C a\'Prage, hitting safely 41 times in 100 tries, including 7 two-baggers, 3 triples and 3 home runs. He was thP big Oriole run produ~er with 40 scored aud 33 batted in. Defensiv~ly the burly Miller was the stand-out catcher in the county. Second-sacker Cockill also made the County All-Star team and was a bus"' Oriole. He hit safely 37 timt.·s out of 96 and smashed 3 doubles. 7 thn.·e-baggers and 3 h'omt.·rs, .scoring 36 times and batting in 27 runs.
Captain Frankie Lagana did a grand job at first base, and when called on to fill Jimmy McCollum's short-stop position several times, did so admirably. Frank's .309 a \'• rage didn't exactly slow up the Oriolt·s either. He too, unloaded thrt'P circuit smashes, scored 37 timPs and took third honors in RB I.'s with 21.
C't.-nterfielder Stu Knott was the swiftest Bird with 33 stolen bases.
StPpping up to the Senior Division G.B.C. team next summer will be Miller, Stripling, Moore, Len .:\Ioga vero, Lagana, Bill Higgins, .Johnny Hufi:rr.an, McCollum and Charlt•y "Tex" Thompson.
Bobby Jameson, Cockill, Knott, JJave Lee and Bobby Gross remain to form a strong nucleus for Coach l\.loort•'s 1952 Orioles. A great squad of Coach Caldwell Baker:s .:\fidget graduates will joint his quint to try for future laurels.

Assignments of com~itteee to the council members was d~layed until the next meeting to allow Ben Coldfaden, new council member, to become acqu&inled with the·· var1ous municipal departments. Meetings dates were established a.s · the first and third Monday of the month, with the next meeting ·. scheduled for October 1. Monday's \ meeting began at 7:30 p.m. in accordance with the city charter. but all tuture lileetings will be h~Jd at 8 p.m. as usual.
Goldfaden rer;~uested that agenda. for future meetings. be placed in u·.e Cooperator to allow local citizens to be aware of business to be conducted. It was oiscloeed that
. the agenda is made up· on Fr!day prPceding the meeting, and placed on the bulletin board irt the post office. Lastner stated that. the COoperato::- has been printing the council new~ thoroughly enough. for citizens to be aware of impending b1asiness.

Citizens complaints of "hot-rod'' enthusiasts using the Schrom airport nmway .for wo!'ltouts in ihe. .?Vening prompted Canning to ask · the council for ·action. to prohibt the noisy activitv.

The Day Of Judgement Bv Rabbi Seymour Zahn
The Day of Judgment, Rosh Hoshana, is known lJy several names. It is called Yom Hazikoron - Day of Memorial, because our recor-d is examined and our destiny determined by the Almighty. It is also knowl". as Yom Teruah, the Day of blowing the Shofar. J.t is most. generally known as the Day of Judgment when the children of men are judged according to their actions, when they themsl'lve~ review their deeds of the past year.
The ritual of blowing the Shofar on Rosh Hosilana holds a central place amo11g th~ observances of this day dedicated to the most solemn aspects of human life and destiny. The Rabbis report that Cicero's mother sighed 100 tiD:'.es when hearing of his death, and BO
our sages, in, sympathy with her, blow the Shofar, the ram's hom, 100 times. It comes like a trum:Pt~t of alarm to a1(Vaken us from our spiritual slumber. The Ten Days ' of Penitence are inaugurated on Rosh Hoshar.a and come to a ellmax on Yo:ni Kippur, the Day of Atonement.
May we wish all our friends and neighbors a year of prosperity and happiness.

Library Use Expands: Over 12 Year Period!
Ov<'r lZ )'Nlrs ~tgo, on .lunt• 10, HI~~. th<' lir('o:onbf'lt P11blk Library !"Pf'nN:i wit.h a collt•ction of 2000 books !:<'if'Ct('<i with th<' aid of th(' Marylxnd Librqry C'.ommisslon. 1'-~rs. Reba Harris, who left Grt:'t:'nbelt last Yl'llr, was the first librarian. starting out under th.~ superr.ision of tht' director o!' adult E'dueati-:m. In 1947, wh<'n GrN•nbelt officially gr('w into cityhood, thL' library wa.s transferred to the municipal a.dministr ation under th!.' City Manager.
Today, in its early teens, number of the i>ooks has swelled to 12,000. In a singlj~ year over U,OOO were eirculated in Greenbelt homes. During the "·igoro\.Os zr.onths of October and November, and the leonine March, something over 3000 books travel to and from the liltrary shelves.
StatiS"~ics, though reputed not to Ue, seldom tell the whole stQI'y. They do not reveal what it means to the individual reader to have a COO per cent incr-ease in the material available to him every day, within walking ciistance from his home. They do not show the variety of titles, chosen by popul.lr demand and from the lists recommended for library purchase by the American L i b r a r y Association. Neither can statistics tell adequately the experience of children being allowed to use the library for the first time.
In a recent publication by the Ca· nadian government, for instance, it is stated that one of the most se·· rious gaps in contemporary Canadian life is the absence of even minimum library service in most communities.
In vivid contrast to this state of affair~>, witness Bresident Truman's 'r~ent proclamation designating October 4 aa NATIONAL LIBRARY DAY. This declaration followed closely an announcement by the American Library Association, which will celebrate its 75th 7ear on October 4, with the theme, •'The heritage of the L"'SA in times of crisis." The A.I4.A. believes that in decades of chaos books are indispensable weapons in the struggle of the individual for understanding and ir.telligent evaluation.
Greenbelt's City Council bears out this belief in its resolution last week d•~claring Octob(•r 1 as Na.ti,·mal Library iJuy.
Librarian Marjorie H. Muir, eomm•mting on National Library !Jay, has said ihat to "think :thout. n·u•l about and talk about the important prohiPrns of nur tim" in tlw light Of thl'ir b111 kground is lhf' function t,y whi<·h tl••· puhlic library a.sst•rts itll 'rai:;r,n •l'•·tn•.'

MAGISTRATE from PILife l the center without remuneration1, because he ''liked it and· found it interesting talking to the chil•hen." Ideally suited to the role of Santa, physically and temJ: .. ~ramentally, Morrison finds sizing l'P the youngsters a sport. "I studied the children, while they studied me,'' is his way of putting it. He noted that last Christmas's childre."l were better dressed and more disciplinE-d than previously.
Since Morrison's magistn-.::y has taken up all the availablt> time Jef.t over from his full-time jllb with the Veteran's Administration, the obvious question of wh3t wa."' he going to do now wa.s answered ~Y "My fcur youngsters are goin,r: to keep me busy." ·

"Bitte.· Rice" Cut; Rating Changed To "EI"
Tbe motion picture "Bitter Rice" which created a controversy in Greenbelt when shown at the local theater has had certain seenes eliminated and as a result the Catholic Legion of Decency has changed its rating from Class CCvndemned, to Class B-Morally Objectionable in Part tel All, ac· cording to a news story in a New York newspaper last week.
A spokesman for Lux fillms,• the distributors, said that the cuts altogether shorten the time of the picture abCJut four minutes. Scenes cut from the film are a boogiewoogie dance by Sylvana l'tlagnano and a sequence In a slllughterhouse, especially a shot showing a man impaled in a meat-hook.

J n5eeticides - A Boon To The FIU'J11er
The farmers and growers r,f America have found insecticides very effective. Without insecticides, the bumper crops of the last 2C years would hardly he possibl~. The resulting food supply looks !ike a good deal for the consumer as well as the -grower. Understandably manufacturers of insecticides tend to accuse anyone raising questions about the safety of sprayed crops of wishing to deprive growers of all insecticides. Insecticides - A Case Of Lopsided Research.
It seems that a new insecticide usually looes some of its effectiveness after about ten years of use, since after a time insects develop immunity to it. Chemical companies therefore do research tc find newer, more effective sprRys. As a result new chemicals are constantly coming into USf:.
The new insecticides are being put on the market without the necessary testing for s&fety to the food consumer. Some insecticides are so toxic and long lasting that they sho•Jldn't be used on food crops at all. Others, less lasting can be safely used providing they are sprayed on long before harvest time. Still others can be used, providing there is. little left on the crop when it is harvested. In some cases the insecticide can easily be removed from the harvested crop. It takes a special lund of research to discover whether or under what conditions an insecticide may be used without endangel';ng the health of the consumer. It the government knew what the score was regarding the chemical before it was used commercially, and had the setup and the will for enforcement, the consumer could be protected. But none of these conditions exist. In many ca:o:('S there is little basis for gov('rnment action in the intE!rest of public health. Too little research is done in this direction by governmt·nt, chemical companies or grower;;. Meny chemical· companies tend to be satisfied as long as their pr;xl· ucts kill insects. The tenor of th·::! testimony of some of the reprcs,.mtatiw~s of the chemkal companies is "Gee \Vhiz, we spr·ncf «.·nour:h trying to find out what will klll insects. \Ve can't be burde:wd with the job of finding out if it will kill or harm men. Besides, there anm't enough research men and labs to do the job. What arc you trying to do, stop progress?" The Pl'f!Mnt Government St>tup On ln5eeticides
Each state has its own regulatior.s on insecticides, some b('ttcr than others. In addition, all insecticides sold must be registered with the Department of Agrict,Jture. In actual practice this has worked out to assure the farmr:r that he is getting something that will kill insects.

ago the Dept. ot Agriculture did l'!ot e-mploy a single toxicologist to 1·c-vipw registrations. It wa<J only then that one toxicologist was hired. There was informal discussion with the Food and Drug Administration. But the Food and Dr>lg Administration had neither the fundamental knowledge, the funds to do the necessary research, and possibly the gumption to innuence the results materially. The Council of Foods and Nutrition of the American Medical Association made the following statement in the Journal of the American :Medical Association of January 28. 1950, "Past experience . . . . inc:ii~ates that poisons cannot be used bafely on food crops without the development· of certain fundamental knowledge concerning the poison. \Vhat these materials will do to pests and fcod crops ... must be known and there must be developed also a knowledge of what these materia)s will do to warm blooded animals and man when small am'lunts of residue are incorporated in their foods. Furthermore, practical methods of analysis should be available tCJ permit identification and measurement of residues that may persist on or in consumer products. Such essential infol"mation is undeveloped for many of Ute agricultural poisons now in use. <Bold face supplied.)

= Condensation
Yes, moisture in the air condenses on the i:itside sur
faces of your empty or partly full gasoline tank and forms
water in the gas. This water may cae:se conusion, starting and carburetor troubles.
Spring and fall are the se~ons most conducive to cor-:
rosion because of wide temperature variat!or45. A. full
gas tank lessens the opportunity for condensation. H<'w-·
ever all cars have more or less condensation water in the
gas tank and this may build up in tinle to give trouble.
We advise use of a product to remove watt.r from your fllel system at this· season. Christy Dry Gas and Drout are
two products which will di~olve the v·ater in the gasoline··· so that it will b\&nt along with the gas. These producbJ
are reas<'nable in price and easy to use--just pour them in
to the gas tank. Both are stocked at Y<'Ur
CO-OP SERVICE STATION. t . . .
