REQUESTS
ZONE LAW RULING
Defeats in Attempting to Ac-
quire Property for City
Use Spurs Action.

The next time the District Commits
sioners acquire property for municipal
purposes they are determined 1t shall
be free of all legal covenants and
coming restrictions which would prevent
its use.,
Defeated three times in the last two
years in an effort to locate fire engine
house and the House of Detention in
residential areas, the Commissioners to-
day directed Corporation Counsel Will
liam w. Bride to prepare an opinion
whether certain municipal institutions
may operate in districts zoned as resi-
Dental.
AS a further precaution. the Commits
sionerS advised Mr.. Bride that if his
opinion is adverse to the existence of
such right and power, he then advise
them as to whether the barriers can
be removed by the addition of these
activities to the list of permitted uses
in residential districts after public hear
ing as required by law. or for any sug-
gestion as to other appropriate method
of accomplishing the same result.
The action of the Commissioners fol-
lowed report from Maj. L. E. Atkins.
Assistant Engineer Commissioner, who
suggested that property on the west side
of Connecticut avenue north Of Everett
street be reZoned so that the District
can acquire it as site for a new fire
engine house.
This site is zoned residential and un-
der recent decision of the Court of
Appeals, a fire engine house cannot be
located in residential area.
Maj. Atkins questioned the authority
Of the District to acquire this property
in view of the court decision and
whether it would have the authority to
erect thereon fire engine house after
1t was purchased.

BROOKHART SEEKS
. MORE FACTS UPON
!. PAY OF EMPLOYEES
Senator Writes Each Depart
ment, Asking Information
on Higher Grades.
BELIEVES DATA TO AID
ACTION BY CONGRESS
Controversy Expected to Come Up
in Regular Session, if Not
at Special Meeting.

The controversy that has been going
on since last Summer as to whether
salaries of Government employees in the
professional, scientific and admins
trative services were raised too high
under the WEIGH law has prompted
Senator Brookhart, Republican of Iowa,
to write to each department for de-
tailed information as to the individual
raises received in those higher grades,
he announced today.
I have heard SO much discussion re-
garding the increases in these higher
grades" Senator Brookhart said, II de-
cided to get reports from all the de-
were granted in each individual case in
the higher grades"
The Senator believes this information
will give Congress a clearer picture of
that part of the salary adjustment queS-
ton relating to the higher grades.
Interested in Lower Grades.
Senator Brookhart is interested pri-
marily in correcting inequalities in the
lower grades by giving an increase of
one additional step to those who were
moved up only one step last Summer.
He wants to be fully informed regard
ing the situation in the higher grades.
however, because there is a movement
IN the House to require downward re-
vision OF some of the increases in the
higher grades, and the two propositions
are likely to be tied together when the
subject OF salary legislation is taken up
again.
It occurred at the recent session,
when the House wrote into the last
efficiency bill authority for the Per-
sonnet Classification Board to revise
salaries in the higher grades, where it
was argued certain employees had re-
ceived too much under the WEIGH law.
Senator Brookhart followed by in
sorting in the same bill, when It reached
the Senate, his amendment to grant the
additional increase to those in the lower
grades, who received the smallest
amount under the WEIGH law.
Compromise Found Impossible.
In conference it was found impossible
to reach compromise, with the result
that both items went out of the bill
This saved the higher-paid employees
from the impending reduction and also
eliminated the increases sought by
Senator Brookhart.
The detailed information which the
Senator is seeking is step toward pre-
pairing to revive the salary question in
the new Congress. 1t does not appear
likely, however, under the present pro-
gram. that there will be any chance
to take up the salary adjustment bill
in the special session.
It is certain to be pushed at the first
regular session, if it is not taken up in
the special session.

DINER IS KILLED
IN ROW OVER FOOD
Waiter Is Wounded for Re-
fusaI to Heat Order of
Pigs Feet.

Because waiter refused to heat pigs
feet which had been served to him cold,
John Harris, colored, 80 years old. of
932 Third street southeast, shot him
and, in turn, was struck on the head
and killed by a bottle welded, police
say, by Enoch Washington, 43-year-old
colored proprietor of the restaurant,
who lives at All Fifth street southeast.
The waiter. Reed Johnson, colored,
80 years old, of GOT Fourth street south
east, suffered only flesh wound in his
arm.
During the alteration, a showcase
was broken and Washington was cut on
the hand and wrist. The third man
said to have been involved in the quar-
rel. Joseph L. Young, colored, "a years
old, of 30l K street southeast, was not
hurt. All the survivors were arrested
and Washington was charged with MUIR
der. The others are being held as wit
nesses. ....
According to the story told police,
Harris and Young entered the res
taurant at 1901 Third street southeast
about $40 o'clock last night and or
dered pigs feet. The food was served
and Young ate without complaint but
Harris demanded that his order be
heated.
After arguing the matter for several
minutes with johnson, Harris left and
shortly returned with a revolver. A
scuffle ensued and johnson was shot
in the arm. Seeing his helper wounded,
Washington rushed to his assistance
with bottle and struck Harris on the
head.
Harris fell unconscious and was pro-
nounced dead by DR.. Willard F. Gilman
of the Casualty Hospital staff when the
physician arrived The others were tax
en- TO the hospital and treated johnson
then was transferred to Gallinger Hos
pital and Washington to a cell at the

ALLEN TO REQUEST
SPECIAL TRIAL BODY
Announcement Follows Re-
fusal of Hesse to Grant
Him Suspension.
Star Staff Photo.

Policeman Robert j. Allen of the
third precinct, who has been ordered
to face the Police Trial Board Thursday
on charges of using his revolver with
out justification. announced today he
would, request Maj Edwin B. Hesse,
superintendent Of police. to create a
special disciplinary body to try his case.
Aliens announcement followed the
refusal of Maj. Hesse to grant the OFF,
GERS request for suspension pending
the outcome of the trial. To keep him
possession of his weapons, Allen said,
seemed utterly incongruous" in view
of the charges pending against him.
Opposed to Burlingame.
The regular Police Trial Board is
composed of Inspector Louis j. Stoll
and Capts. Guy E. Burlingame' and VIII
liam G. Stott. Stoll and Stott are auto
matically barred from serving in Aliens
case because they are complaining wit
nesSes. Allen said he Is opposed to Capt.
Burlingame because he does not believe
this officer will grant him fair trial in
view of his testimony at his recent trial
on charges growing out OF the accusa-
lions of Mrs. Helen F.. Blalock, former
Seventh street palmiSt.
Saturday that charges would. be pre-
ferred against Allen, he was not served
with formal copy until this morning.
Attached to the charges was a letter
from Mai Hesse denying certain state
ments made by the officer in his request
for suspension.
Two General Charges.
The paper contains two general
charges and one specification under
each. The charges are violation Of GER
tain sections of the police manual which
forbid an officer to use weapon except
in most urgent cases, and then only in
manner as will not jeopardize the lives
of innocent persons, and conduct preju-
dicial to the reputation, good order and
discipline Of the police force. Each of
the specifications also allege unjustified
use of revolver.
The charges are the outgrowth Of
Aliens action in shooting colored
youth in the right leg when he failed
to stop at the officers command last
Friday night in st. Mary's court.
