C., THURSDAY, JANUARY 22, 1942. Head of Church Dr. Samuel Cavert To Attend Informal Religious Session The Rev. Dr. Samuel McCrea Cavert, general secretary of the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America, has just left on the Atlantic Clipper to meet in- formally with the staffs of the World Council of Churches in Geneva, Switzerland. Dr. Cavert explained the purpose of the trip as being one more effort to keep the churches of Continental Europe and the United States in close contact in | spite of the difficulties impqged by war. The Federal Council executive said Christians means of maintaining contacts and will help make pro- visions for studying and conferring on‘the post-war world. Began on Farm. Engaging in such important ac- executive of an organization repre- senting 22,000,000 Protestants in the United States keeps this ex-farm boy busy. From the isolated provincialism of | an upstate New York village to the | Job of keeping a finger on the pulse | of world Christianity is a long jump. ! Council Leaves «:/On Clipper for Geneva Parley But it was easily negotiated by the mild-mannered man who bears so much of the responsibility of the Federal Council. Born in 1888 in Charlton, N. Y., Dr. Cavert dropped the manual labor of the farmer for the mental vision of the scholar when he entered Union College. Following this preparation three years at Union Theological Sem- inary, New York, led him to his ordination as a Presbyterian min- ister. A Union Seminary fellowship in 1916 took Dr. Cavert through India, China and Japan. Later he twice visited the Near East, sailed the Caribbean and made nine trips to Europe, the latter in the interest of international Christianity. Interested in Refugees. Dr. Cavert is an active director of four refugee organizations. One of the associations particularly prized by him is with the National Refugee Service, a Jewish relief organization. He is one of its few Christian members. Dr. Cavert’s only activity which might approach & hobby is the Re- ligious Book Club, which he founded and patterned lfler the Book-of- the-Month Club plan. He has little | time to gratify a fondness for re- ligious teaching, having turned down | an offer to teach at Union Seminary. Membership on the Executive Com- mittee of the International Council of Religious Education is perhaps a | slight sop to his desire, On Reorganization Of Civilian Defense Municipal Officials Called In to Disquss ‘Streamlining’ Setup By the Associated Press. RICHMOND, Jan. 22.—With char- acteristic directness, Gov. Colgate | W. Darden, jr, began his first full 4 day in office today by going straight | to the heart of his No. 1 inaugural recommendation — speedy reorgan- ization of civilian defense, backed by “full authority” of the Common- | wealth. The Governor called in Virginia’s municipal officials for discussion of his proposal to “streamline the setup and concentrate authority in the hands of those who must direct the program.” Except for routine functions, pres- ent civiian defense agencies in the State marked time until the Gover- nor could mature his plans and pre- for action. Mr. Darden asked prompt consideration of the subject. Combs Back in Power. E. R. Combs, key figure in the party machine headed by Senator Byrd, was lifted back to the power- ful position he held before Gov. Price’s regime. Gov. Darden an- nounced he would appoint Mr. Combs chairman of the State Com- pensation Commissiof’ Another organization stalwart, the Capitol as Gov. Darden’s execu- tive secretary after four years spent as a member of the State Motion Picture Censorship Board. Mr. Combs now has approximately the same standing he had up to 1938, dkcept that then he was State controller as well, and now his sec- ond job is clerk of the Senate. Gov. Darden yesterday appointed Henry G. Gilmer of Wise State con- troller to succeed Col. Le Roy Hodges, resigned. Ralph Wilkins of Ports- mouth was named secretary of the L. Jackson of Charlottesville. i Legislature Gets to Work. In the Legislature, joint public | hearings on the budget have been | called by the Senate Finance end | for 3 p.m. tomorrow and Monday,! and both houses will be in session Saturday to assure quorums for an- other joint meeting of the two com- mittees. These committees are expected to consider soon a suggestion by Tax Commissioner C. H. Morrissett for some tax rellef for automobile deal- ers, whose business is drastically affected by emergency rationing. The tax commissioner said the problem could be solved “by enact- ment of a bill measuring the license tax for 1942 by estimated sales in 1942, subject to correction at the end of the year on the basis of true sales. “But for those dealers who have not already paid on their 1941 sales by reason of the fact that their 1941 tax was measured by their 1940 sales, it would be fair and proper to in- ciude in the basis for 1942 the amount by. which the 1941 sales ex- ceeded the 1940 sales. “The above plan would seem to be fair to all concerned, and if the General Assembly should see fit to give the relief, I am persuaded that 1t would be the right thing to do.” Witness’ Absence Delays Murder Trial of Boy, 15 By the Associated Press. WASHINGTON, Va, Jan. 22— Failure of a summons to reach a key witness resulted yesterday in the continuance to January 28 of the trial of Thomas Dewey Cameron, jr. 15-year-old mountain boy charged with the slaying of three persons at Huntley, Va., last May. Judge J. R. H. Alexander of Rappa~ hannock County Circuit Court or- dered the trial continued after Sheriff James M. Lillard reported that Dr. Joseph R.

FAIRFAX, Va., Jan. 22—The Fairfax County Public Library will sponsor a book review tomorrow afternoon at the library. The pro- gram will include a review of a pop- ular book of fiction by Mrs. T. J.

FAIRFAX, Va., Jan. 22—A 12-| month school term is being studied | by the Fairfax County School Board. It was suggested the year might | be divided into three terms, with | pupils required to attend at least two, and the third optional. Less teacher turnover would prob- ably result from such a system, it was said, and teachers desiring col- lege courses might be given semes- ter leaves of absence. Other econo- mies might result from steady use of school plants and buses. However, the School Board left the matter open for further con- sideration. Mrs. Harrlett R. Gordon and Karl H. Stutzman resigned from the Fairfax High School faculty. Miss Ruth Willlams was ap- pointed librarian at Fairfax High, Miss Mildred Tate was appointed to the home economics department, Mrs. Ethel R. Potts was appointed a teacher of mathematics and science, and Miss Ruth Early was named head of the home economics | department. Supt. W. T. Woodson announced the outside use of school buses has been reduced to a minimum to con- serve tires and buses. Price Given Bodyguard After Report of Threat BY the Associated Press. RICHMOND, Va, Jan. 22—The News Leader sald Gov. Price, who was succeeded in office yesterday by Colgate W. Darden, jr., had been | | last week “because of a report of a threat against his life.” “According to unconfirmed re- ports,” the newspaper said, “the threat on the former Governor’s life has been made by a former convict of the penitentiary who was a resi- dent of Henrico County. One member of the guard is Pa- | trolman J. S. Sheppard of the Hen- rico Police Department and the other is a State trooper. Arlington Ministers to Meet The Arlington (Va.)

The latest project to be started is desig- nated as bridge No. 4. It will carry the new Army-Navy boulevard across the ‘heavy-duty truck route which is to connect Rosslyn with the War Department Building and U. 8. Route 1. Army-Navy boule- vard will connect at the trafic loop on Columbia Island at the Virginia shore of Memorial Bridge and run past the War Department Building to connect with a proposed alternate U. S. Route 1 to by-pass Alexandria. The contract of bridge No. 4 has been let to the Cayuga Construction Corp. of New York City. The span will be of steel girders supported by concrete piers and abutments, faced with stone. Bids on Two Bridges. At 11 am. on January 27 bids will be opened on projects desig- nated bridges No. 19 and No. 20 at the P. R. A. offices at 1725 F street N.W. These spans are to be located near the old hangar site on the abandoned Washington-Hoover Air- port. Their purpose is to carry the relocated U. S. Route 1 in dual one- way traffic lanes, across the existing railroad spur line. Each span will carry a traffic artery 36 feet in width and will be constructed of reinforced concrete. Bids for bridges No. 7 and No. 8 will be opened at the same address February 3. The first span will carry two one-way traffic lanes of Army- Navy boulevard across a full clover- leaf intersection which serves as an entrance to and exit from the park- | ing lot area lying south of the War Department Building. No. 7 span, which provides a grade separation for the boulevard over the parking lot entrance, will be of reinforced concrete faced with stone. Grade Separation. Bridge No. 8 will be of similar type architecture and will pass over the heavy-duty truck highway as it runs near the War Department Building.
