WOMAN WINS IN LEGAL
FIGHT TO BUILD STORE

The United States Supreme Court
yesterday rendered decision in favor
of Mollie Schwartz in suit against
the District Commissioners for a
permit to erect a drug store in the
1900 block of Connecticut avenue
northwest. Under a temporary per-
NIT, issued by the Commissioners at
the direction of lower court, a
grocery store has been opened on
the property, and the decision gives
the store owners the right to con-
tinue their business.
Action in the courts started two
years ago when the woman was re-
fused a permit, the Commissioners
having passed a regulation forbid
ding business property in this block.
She obtained a permit through a
court order.
Immediately after Miss Schwartz's
application for permit the coming
law became effective. This law
barred business in the $500 block.
Miss Schwartz contended the Com
missioners had no right to refuse
her a permit, and that they had no
right to make a regulation forbid
ding the use Of that block for bust
ness. Since the litigation, Miss
Schwartz is said to have transferred
the property.

poration Counsel, said today the de-
cision does not affect the coming
