hers and only four new senators,
an unusually small turnover.
Three of the Jour new senators
have had experience in the House.
Generally a mature, experienced
body, this Legislature could get its
* job done in 120 days as suggested
f by an amendment adopted in No-
4 vember.
The same amendment raised the
lawmakers’ pay from $10 to $25 a
day for the 120 days, and put
them on zero salary for any time
•pent legislating after that. ^
Sen. A. M. Aikin Jr., of Paris,
a veteran, said he thought they
could do it.
“They aren’t going to work for
nothing, and local reaction and
session leaders will furnish the
push to get the job done,” he said.
to what was needed. We sent in
daily surveys and reports trying to
get government aid. There were
four or five months when we had
to do what we could with what
we had."
Tenant Organisation
Those were parents, too, who
knew nothing of sanitary facili-
ties, who used them to dispose of
vegetable garbage such as cabbage
leaves and potato peelings, "The
housing' plumbers had as many
problems as we,” she observes.
Tenants’ organizations were
formed to combat the problems
of the bulging community, home
counselors Wore used to teach par-
ents how to live in a world of
gas stoves and bathrooms, and
suitable recreation was estab-
lished.
“The greatest change was noted
in children, some scrofulous, who
became fat andheaUhy with prop-
er care . t. as their physical selves
improver, so did their mentali-
ties,” the adds. Recreation facili-
ties cared for the juveniles.
Newiwosnaa Wrong
A New York newspaper woman
said Orange couldn't cope with its
problems. Later, Dr. Edgar and
the committee invited her to re-
turn and she was impressed with
the results.
“I don’t know what we would
have done had it not been for Dr.
Edgar,” Mrs. Schofield admits
“He foresaw our predicament ard
did something about it. That peri-
od was one of the most educational
in my life—every day there were
new challenges and new prob-
lems.”
A greater, far-reaching result
came after the workers returned
to their farms and pitiful homes.
Some had saved their money to
buy more land, to put up screens
or to install plumbing or heating
units. Only a small percentage re-
verted to antiquated living stand-
ards, Mrs, Schofield discovered
and that seemed the best satisfac-
tion.
Go Back to Work
Painters working for a Rose-
lawn Addition subcontractor went
back to work yesterday-following
a dispute which flared briefly
over the weekend. “ ^ ,
C. A. Burleson, former member
of a partnership employing the
painters involved, said today the
matter was settle yesterday when
he sold out his interest to his
brother, C. E. Burleson and the
latter rehired a job steward who
had been the crux of the contro-
versy. ,
Eight painters had walked .off
the job last Thursday after the
layoff of Blair Thomas, the shop
steward.
The men are members of Paint-
ers Local 328 (AFL).

Serving Sentences
NEW YORK CAP)—Warrants
are out for the arrest of 13 sec-
ond-string Communist leaders
who have been ordered to start
serving prison terms for conspir-
acy. ' • ,
The warrants Were issued by
Federal Judge Irving R. Kaufman
as he revoked the bail of the 13,
who were free in $25,000 each.
Kaufman acted shortly after the
U.S. Supreme Court refused yes-
terday to review the case.
The 13 were convicted Jan. 21,
1953, under the Smith Act on
charges of conspiracy to teach and
advocate overthrow of the U.S.
government by force and violence.
They were sentenced to terms
ranging from one to three years

Driving to Orange in a car
stolen in New Orleans Sunday
night, the youth abandoned it on
4th street after a blowout. The
second car was taken by wiring
around the switch. The youth
changed plates on the Reed car,
stopped at the MacArthur traffic
circle to pick up two women and
was halted by Swifj 15 miles later.
The car sped around him just as
a police broadcast came in over

The loss was first reported to
Patrolman Oscar Breaux, in the
supermarket at the tme, and it re-

located.
Sold by PHA
The land traversed by the levee
is part of a 119-acre tract bought
by Stevens Mafrige of Houston
from the Public Housing Adminis-
tration. Prior to the sale Mafrige
agreed to a clause giving the City
of Orange the right to “repair,
raise and maintain the existing
levee.”
Since that time, however, Maf-
rige has raised objections to the
plans which were developed by
the Corps of Engineers for raising
the levee. The levts is being
