Commission, and District co-ordi-
nator, will seek a substantial in
crease over his last years budget
for highway development and his
five-year bridge program.
Extension of water and sewer
mains as planned by Captain White

sioners for their approval and in
clusion in the budget for the fiscal
year of 1881.
Major Henry G. Pratt, super
intendent of police, has already
discussed with Commissioner Proc

creasing the personnel of the police
department, which will mean con-
/ siderable increase in the police de-
partment budget. The Commits

Major Pratt's plan and will, no
doubt, fight to retain all of Pratt's
items in the District budget when
it Is submitted to Congress.

IS JONES Law
C0-AUTH0R

Representative Gale H. Stalker
R.) of New York today expressed q
Willingness to share the limelighr OF
authorship OF the Jones bill, which
provides a maximum sentence for
first prohibition law violations OF
$40 900 fine and five years in prison
Already Senator Wesley l.. Jones
tR.) of Washington. who sponsored
the bill in the Senate, has disclosed
desire to have it called the Jones
Stalker act instead of simply the
Jones law.
II have no objection to the
measure being called the Jones
Stalker act" Stalker said. Il have
no pride of authorship. but ] have
pride in the bill, and recognize
it as my child"
The measure, which has aroused
nationwide discussion, was first in
troduced in the House by Repre-
sentative Stalker on January 1S
1928, while Senator Jones intro
duced it in the Senate on January
27. 1928, according to the records
Senator Jones has quite frankly
given Stalker the credit of originat
ing It,
While the bill lay dormant ir
the House, however. Senator Jones
finally got it on the Senate floor
where it passed by an overwhelming
vote. The House then accepted the
bill, depriving Stalker of the usual
double authorship under Congress
sional practice.
my best information is that the
law is working out better than even
l anticipated" declared Stalker. Il
am informed that a large number
of bootlegging establishments have
been closed as a result OF It's
enactment.
The explanation of the purpose
of the law as given to district at
torneys by Mrs. Mabel Walker Viii.
lebrandt accords with my original
idea. 1t is intended to be used
against the big bootlegger.
1T may be harder to get con.
victions under the law, as is claimed,
but the government will offset this
by building up stronger and tighter
cases.
Stalker said that he first began
to work on legislation providing
stiffer sentences for first violators
of the prohibition law when he left
the lumber business in Elmira. N.
Y, six. years ago to come to Con.
gress.
The first bill, he said, provided
mandatory Jail sentences for all
prohibition law violators. He
changed it from an original min.
imum of 80 davs to six months and
then came the five and ten bill"

SMOKE SCREEN.
DRIVER HELD

Claude L. Soper. Of the 400 block
of Eleventh st. s. E., was held
under 81 900 bond in police court
today as the alleged operator of a
smoke.screen which early Friday
endangered the life of Policeman
Miles Znamenacek of the Eleventh
Precinct.
The car driven by Soper, the
policeman claims, began n e a r
Eleventh and M SITS. S. E., chase
which at times reached speed OF
20 miles an hour. Fumes from the
smoke screen almost blinded Zname-
nacek, who had taken up the pur-
suit in the belief that he was
behind a rum-running car.
The car was found abandoned and
empty some distance away, police re-
ported, and last night Soper was ar
rested as the driver. Znamenacek
was said to have identified him.
Soper faces a charge of reckless driv'
ing in addition to the smoke-screen
charge, which carries with 1t five
year penalty IL he is convicted.
