Arthur R.

Bertelson, managing ritor of the Post-Dispatch, nominated Lasch for the Pulitzer ward. Recommendations by a screening jury went to the advisory board of 14 members, headed by President Kirk, which makes recommendations to the Columbia University trustees. Trustees made the final decision. Joseph Pulitzer editor of the Post-Dispatch, is a member of the advisory board. He did not participate in the selection of the editorial writing prize-winner, as It was known that 3 Post-Dispatch man was under consideration.

Other members of the advisory board include editors and publishers of newspapers with editorial views widely divergent from that of the Post-Dispatch. Policy Criticized Lasch's editorial which was attached to the announcement that he had won the prize contained basic criticism of American foreign policy as relying ex the measure provides that junkyards, including automobile graveyards, garbage dumps and sanitary landfills, must be at least 200 feet from streets in incorporated areas and 1000 feet from major highways in unincorporated areas. Such places must be screened by trees or fences so as not to be visible from the thoroughfares. A substitute for a Senate-approved constitutional amendment relating to school taxes was reported favorably by a House committee last night. The measure is designed to prevent a school tax rate from reverting to 'the basic levy of $1.25 on each $100 of assess valuation if voters of the district defeat a tax increase proposal.

Under the substitute, the school tax would revert to the last levy authorized by a majority vote, if the tax increase plan was rejected. The substitute was offered by Eugene Walsh, legal assistant to Gov. Warren E. Hearnes. Another House committee approved a Senate passed bill authorizing creation of a special committee to study the state's building needs and the feasibility of financing such capital improvements through bond issues.

A bill regulating drilling for oil and gas in the state was finally passed today. Final approval came when the Senate accepted several House amendments, repassed the measure 29 to 1 and sent it to Gov. Hearnes. He is expected to sign it within a few days. The law sets up a formula for proration of oil and gas interests of owners of abutting property.

Recent geological tests indicate that Missouri may have some oil and gas reserves, but state authorities say that no oil boom is in prospect. Administration of the law will be handled by a new state oil and gas council of five members. COUNTY GRANTED $154,000 FOR CHILD HEALTH WORK A $154,759 federal grant to the St. Louis County Health Department to improve its maternal and child health programs has been approved, United States Senator Edward V. Long Missouri, announced today.

Dr. Jane Cadbury, project director, said the money would be used to establish a prenatal clinic for indigent residents of the county. Matching funds will be provided by the county on a 25 per cent basis. Dr. Cadbury said the funds would also provide hospital care in cases where conditions exist that might endanger the health or life of the mother or infant.

The billboard control bill passed by the House was a compromise worked out by another House-Senate conference committee. The compromise is regarded as a weak billboard regulation measure, but still somewhat stronger than the version originally passed by the House. Representative Patrick J.

Hickey St. Ann, who handled the bill on the House floor, said "the bill was "the best we can do. Half a loaf is better than none." Hickey said the Legislature would have all of the next regular sessiion beginning in January to correct any deficiencies in the present measure. Major Question The major question remaining on the billboard bill is whether it will be acceptable to federal authorities. Unless lit meets basic standards set up by the Federal Government, Missouri will be (penalized 10 per cent of its federal highway grants now amounting to about $100,000,000 a year.

Many Senators, Including some who voted for the bill, expressed doubt about this. During the bilWs passage through the Legislature, both houses added amendments to soften its provisions to protect roadside sign users and the outdoor advertising industry. Senator Earl L. Blackwell Hillsboro, told the Senate that "this bill is a bunch of nothing just a bunch of baloney." Criticism Voiced The compromise version eliminated House provisions that critics had charged would have amplified the right of county courts to authorize the erection of billboards anywhere in the state. However, the measure still retains language that provides that a county court may permit signs to be placed in any area it designates as an "unzoned commercial or industrial area:" Legislators are confused over By a Post-Dispatch Photographer St.

They say also that actually the county court's power would be nullified by other provisions. Opponents disagree, contending that this constitutes a clear grant of zoning power to these county administrative bodies.

This is one of the many Inconsistencies and conflicts that apparently will have to be resolved by federal authorities, the opponents said. Two-Part Bill The bill basically is In two parts.

In the meantime, he said, part of Missouri's highway grants would be held up by the Government. If the state eventually lost extended litigations on the issue, it would permanently lose high grants at the rate of $10,000,000 a year. Hearings a Factor Senator John J. Johnson Affton, said that county zoning commissions rather than county courts should have the right to determine where signs could be placed along highways. Zoning commissions, he pointed out, must have public hearings, whereas a county court could authorize a billboard without prior public notice.
