PART Of WIDE
INVESTIGATION

The ten per cent penalty for over
due gas and electric light bills in
Washington is to be investigated by
the Bureau Of Efficiency.
This became known today when
1t was disclosed that the Bureau Of
Efficiency is to study all public
utility issues In the District Of
Columbia.
Not only has the Bureau, accord
ing to it's chief, Herbert D. Brown,
full authority under a congressional
resolution to investigate the admins
tration and policy of the District
Government, but it has a specific
request from Representative Gibson.
chairman of the House investigating
committee. to make a searching
inquiry into all public utilities
Issues.
This inquiry will be made as a
part Of the general investigation of
District affairs by the Bureau,
which has full authority to review
all policies and regulations of the
Public Utilities Commission as well
as of the District Commissioners
So intensive is the work before the
Bureau, Mr.. Brown indicated to.
day that it will take many months
and perhaps Years to complete it.
The Bureau OF Efficiency re.
Gently Investigated the tax litiga-
ton between the District govern.
ment and the railroad companies
involved in the Union Station de-
velopment, with the result that the
office of the corporation council
took immediate steps to prosecute
the case.
The recent action of the Bureau
of Efficiency in disappearing the
private taxi concessions at local
hotels is a forerunner of other re.
ports in which the policies Of the
District Government will be disacted.
These reports will be sent to
Congress.
The Bureau of Efficiency will
not attempt to review the legal
aspects of the 10 per cent penalty
on gas and light bills, but will
study it from the standpoint OF
public policy. It Is a matter about
which considerable complaint has
been made recently, particularly
with reference to the extension Of
the Today time limit to / days or
more for the payment of these
bills.

STUDY Removal

District Engineers have practi-

Three sets of estimates are being
prepared for tearing the structure
down-one the cost Of removing the
entire bridge, the cost of removing
Ithe superstructure only, and the
cost of tearing down the Virginia
span, which is in most danger of
collapsing.
1t is most probable that the Vir-
ginia span, at least. will be torn

VOUCHERS GONE
FROM OFFICE
All Times staff Photos

Four. duplicate tax refund vouch-
ers, totalling about $4,000, were
found missing today from the Dis
trict auditors office in the investiga-
ton which is being conducted, follow
ing the arrest OF Joseph w. Frenzel,
chief auditor, on a charge of forgery.
Officials were not willing to an
nounce definitely whether or not the
missing vouchers represent an addi-
tional s., 900 shortage until they have
completed their investigation.
The original vouchers are filed in
the general accounting office and
a check must be made there before
officials are able to reach any con-
clusion.
Frenzers arrest followed the dis
covery of shortage of $1,Sss.26,
resulting from the cashing of three
forged tax refund checks.
The accused official is now out
on $4,000 bond and his preliminary
hearing is scheduled for Tuesday.
He already has been suspended
and Major Daniel ]. Donovan.
District auditor, has recommended
to the Commissioners his dismissal
from the District service.

Nurses Superintendent
At Freedman's Resigns

Being unable to get along with
her associate nurses and students"
is said to be the reason that the
resignation of Miss Emma Mae
Irwin, as superintendent of nurses
at Freedman's Hospital. has been
requested by E. c. Finney, assist
ant Secretary of the Interior, 1t
was learned today.
Miss Charlotte K. May and Mrs,
Louise Mason, assistant chief
nurses, are performing the duties
of superintendent of nurses. No
permanent appointment has been
made in Miss Irwin's place. A
nurses strike was averted narl owly
at Freedman's Hospital several
months ago because of unfair
treatment received, the nurses
claimed.

With the announcement at the
meeting Of the Washington Presby-
terry today Of the acouittal Of the
Rev. Alfred E. Barrows on charges
OF conduct unbecon ing a minister,
a threat, in the form OF an anony-
nous telegram, was made, indi.
eating that certain officers Of the
church intend to take civil action
to offset the verdict
The chairman OF the trial COM
mission, the Rev. Wallace Radcliffe,
was beginning his statement when
the telegram was brought in. The
meeting was adjourned for 10 min
utes while the trial commission con-
Sidered the message.
The court re-convened and the
Rev. Mr.. Radcliffe resumed his an
nouncement.
He reviewed the charges against
the pastor. specifying that he had
been charged with making a con-
fession and agreeing TO leave the
church. that he had been detected
by a policeman while engaged in
immoral practices and that he was
responsible for invidious propa.
ganda in the church.
1T is the decision of the com
mittee," DIR. Radcliffe continued. -
that none of these charges was sus-
tanned"
The Rev. Mr.. Barrows was very
gently rebuked for his handling of
the situation at the Eastern Presby-
terrain Church in a recommendation
urging that such matters should be
handled with extreme care and with
out publicity If possible"
Believe Cop Biased
DIR. Radcliffe intimated that the
commission believed the policeman's
testimony to be biased and possibly
actuated by motives against the Rev.

But the Terrapins had hard
schedule that embraced no let.down
games and most Of the contests were
away from home. Since the South
Carolina game early in October the
team has had its ups and downs.
However, there is no denying thu
fact that Maryland has much po.
tential strength. If the players
find themselves Thursday and avoid
mistakes Of the type that has cost
them heavily in two or three con.
tests this season, Hopkins is going
to be very much up against it.
On the whole, Maryland's at.
tack has featured rushing and
Hopkins passing this season.
Byrd has the ball carriers and
other things favorable to a good
rushing game. In several contests
the men have flashed the offensive
OF which they are capable. In such
runners as Thomas, Roberts. Pugh,
Snyder and kessler, Curly has the
lads to lug the pigskin.
In front of these backs there are
some big, fast linemen. In reserve
are lot Of likely looking gridiron
possibilities, a number of whom
have seen considerable action as
substitutes.

rushers, found himself possessed of
some unusually good passers and
pass receivers. So, Hopkins pass.

attack all season.

1t is true that only once Van
