ASK MORE POWER
FOR CITY COUNSEL
Commissioners Want Official to
Have Power to Try Cases
Now in Dispute.

With a request for its enactment the
Commissioners sent to Congress today
bill to amend the code Of laws Of the
District. so as to enable the Corporation
Counsel or his assistant to conduct In
the name Of the District prosecutions
for violations of municipal ordinances
and regulations or penal statutes In the
nature of such regulations. where the
maximum punishment is both fine and
Imprisonment, as well as where the
maximum punishment, Is fine only or
Imprisonment for one year.
The necessity for such legislation, they
say, is a ruling in the Police Court In
the case Of milk dealer who was
charged with the Illegal use of milk and
cream containers under section 878 OF
the code, which prescribes an penalty
Of both fine and Imprisonment for that
offense. The ruling of the Police Court
was that prosecutions involving such
penalty should be in the name Of the
United States Attorney for the District
The ruling affects also prosecutions for
cruelty to animals, violation Of the
attempted use of concealed weapons
'In.view of the fact that with few ex-
ceptions prosecutions for violations OF
municipal ordinances, regulations, and
statutes Of q municipal character are
conducted 81 the Corporation Counsei
and his assistants" the Commission
ere say" It Is expedient in the interest
Of uniformity and efficiency that prose-
cution for violations OF all such regula-
tions should take the same course. The
duties Of the Attorney for the United
States or for the District of Columbia
especially relate to prosecution for
crime committed against the United
States" .ef~ !

LODGEMEN FINED
FOR EMBEz1LEMENT
Samuel J. Masters and John
B. Kinnear Ordered to Pay
$4,000 Each.

Fines Of 5000 each were assessed to-
day by Justice Stafford. presiding in
Criminal Court, No. !. against Samuel
]. Masters and John B. Kinnear, for
mer chief workman and chief scribe
of the World, who were convicted re-
Gently on a charge Of embezzling $1S. 7o(
Of the funds Of the organization.
The fines were imposed on three OF
the seven counts in the indictment on
which the defendants were convicted
the first. ninth and twelfth. These
counts involve the principal legal points
raised in the pleadings.
/ Justice Stafford made the comment
that In view of the fact that the Of
Tense alleged was more technical than
Intentional and for that reason did not
believe that imprisonment was justi-
fed.
The two men were charged with ap-
propriating to their own use certain
commissions on loans and practically
admitted the transactions, but claimed
that such action was legitimate.
The purpose of the prosecution. the
court said, was to establish the law In
regard to the handling of trust funds.
as general practice had developed In
dealing with such funds In loose man.
ner. Justice Stafford holds that 1t is a
violation of the law for any one to take
the commissions or bonuses on loans Of
such funds.
Mr.. Kinnear made a statement to the
court in which he admitted that he had
technically violated the law. but said II
was not intentional. He said he had
spent two years building UP the fra
ternal orgfianization. and felt he waa
entitled to the commissions. Mr.. Mas
ters said he concurred in the statement.
