Recreation Facilities
For Children Cited as
Major Requirement
Recreation facilities for children
constitute one of the major re
quirements of State and local com
munities, Melvin A. Glasser, execu
tive director of the White House
Conference on Children and
Youth, said last night.
He spoke before industrial and
civic leaders at the Washington
preview of the new General Elec
tric community recreation pro
gram, held in the National Press
Club Auditorium.
Comprehensive Report.
His statements were based on
what was said to be the most com
prehensive report ever made on
the needs of the Nation’s children.
The report was prepared by the
States especially for the Mid
century White House Conference,
called by President Truman, to be
held here early next month.
Mr. Glasser said it points out
the need for year-round camping
facilities, more and better leaders,
facilities for arts and crafts ac
tivities and community recreation
centers with parks and play
grounds.
The type of recreation program
sponsored by the General Electric
Co., and the National Recreation
Association was lauded by Mr.
Glasser. This type of program
was outlined in detail by D. T.
Carter, of General Electric.
"Packaged" Project.
He said the project was a
"package,” including a March of
Time production, “A Chance To
Play,” shown last night, and two
booklets which present in word,
graph, picture and cartoon the
conclusions of 20 years of broad
and careful inquiry into the sub
ject. Civic and community lead
ers have all the material avail
able to them, it was said.
In introducing the program,
Mr. Carter described such bene
fits of planned recreation as im
proved physical and mental health,
fewer traffic accidents involving
children and reduced juvenile de
linquency.

Grand Jury Indicts
Driver in Death of
Workman in Ditch
A Federal grand jury yesterday
Indicted Hilliard R. Johnson, 33,
on a manslaughter charge, nam
ing him as the driver of a car
which last month crashed into
a street excavation, fatally injur
ing a workman in the ditch.
Johnson, who is colored and
lives in the 1000 block of Fourth
street N.E., was accused by the
panel of “wantonly and reck
lessly” driving the automobile
which killed Albert Harris, 57,
colored, of McLean, Va.
The accident occurred at North
Capitol and H streets on October
24. Police reported that the car,
traveling at a high rate of speed,
crashed through two street barri
cades before plunging into the
ditch where Mr. Harris was work
ing.
His indictment was among a
total of 40 returned by two grand
juries now active here. District
Court Judge Edward A. Tamm
accepted the true bills.
Joseph Paglioccini, 18-year-old
truck driver, was charged with
embezzling $402 from his em
ployer, the Daniel Loughran Co.
402 Eleventh street S.W., last
October 20. The youth first told
police he had been held up and
robbed of that amount but later
reportedly admitted he took the
money himself because he had
a sick wife, according to police.
A 53-year-old mail carrier was
accused by the Jury of embezzling
the cash contents of two envelopes
which he should have delivered.
Andrew J. Samuels, colored, 4900
block of Blaine street N.E., was
named as having embezzled $16.90
in small loan payments to the
Atlas Finance Co., Inc. %
