JUDGESH|P BILLS
MAY Be TAKEN UP
Chance for Consideration by
Senate This Week Seen
for D. C. Measures.

Backed by strong recommendations
from the judiciary committee, the bills
to place two additional judges in the
District Supreme Court and two more
on the bench of the Court of Appeals
may have a chance for consideration in
the Senate some time this week. They
may be reached the next time the Sen
ate considers miscellaneous bills on the
calendar.
In report filed by Senator Stephens.
Democrat, of Mississippi the committee
described the congeSted condition of the
dockets in the District Supreme Court.
and called the situation In that court
alarming" The need for two more
judges in the Court of Appeals was
stressed with equal force in separate
report by Senator Waterman, Repub-
ncan, of Colorado. The bills were care
fully considered recently by a subcom-
mittee headed by Senator Steiwer, Re
publican, of oregon.
Among the facts cited by Senator
Stephens report as to congestion in
the Supreme Court were the following
That since 1922 the number of law suits
filed has increased 80 per cent; that in
the same period the number of equity
cases has gone up 80 per cent: that q
month ago there were 1892 cases or
dered for trial on the law calendar, to
be divided between two judges; nearly
800 cases brought by disabled war vet
erans, awaiting trial.
The report also stated that criminal
cases are now being tried where the de-
PENDANTS have been in jail for more
than year awaiting trial. The adding
of a judge last year to handle condem-
nation cases has not helped the general
situation, the report points out.
Referring to the work of the judges
in the District Supreme Court, the re-
port stated:
THE committee has taken cognizance
of the report published in the news
papers to the effect that some of the
members of the Supreme Court of the
District of Columbia have not been at
tentive to their duties. The best in
formation which the committee could
obtain leads to the conclusion that
although some members of the court
are less diligent than others and, of
course, some are less capable than 9TH
ers, speaking generally, the members of
this court are doing all that should be
asked Of them, and some members of
the court have shown a spirit of very
great devotion and perform an enor-
nous amount of difficult work"
The other report pointed out that the
number of judges on the District Court
of Appeals has not been increased since
the court was established 81 years ago,
although the population of the city has
more than doubled in that time. The
report says Congress has from time to
time extended the jurisdiction of this
court, such as the handling of appeals
from the Radio Commission and from
the Board of Tax Appeals. The re-
port points out that both bills have the
approval of Attorney General Mitchell.
Similar bills have been reported IA
vorably and are awaiting action in the
House.

said. "They are breeders of crime. No
child raised under such conditions could
be expected to have any ideals of NOR
ality or good citizenship. Any child
raised under such an environment who
did become a substantial citizen would
be a decidedly rare exception.
1T seems to me that the sanitary
department of the city Is at fault" he
continued, ito allow such insanitary
conditions. There is no excuse for al
lowing dead cats TO lie for days in a
narrow alley where children are play
ing"
Should BE Opened.
After stating that the real evils Of
the alleys IS nesting places of crime
and criminals and as harborage for
much that is outside the law, i'm
morality and social depravity, hidden
away from the public gaze and from
the police cannot be observed and cal
culated by a congressional sightseeing
party, Mr.. Hall said In conclusion:
"Of course, these hidden communi-
ties could and should be opened UP to
view. BY giving free access to them
making them less of lairs for the furtive
and lurking violators of law, a long
step would be taken toward preven-
ton Of crime"
Representative Bowman Of West
Virginia, who sponsored the measure in
the House, has previously expressed his
determination that some action be
taken to eliminate the conditions COM
planned Of.

D. c. AND PAY BILL
FAILURE IS SEEN
Simmons Walks Out on Sen
ate Conference, Refusing
to Consider Modification.

With House leaders unwilling to at
tempt to get the police and firemen'S S
pay increase bill to conference except
by unanimous consent, which Repre-
sentative Simmons of Nebraska, chair
man of the subcommittee on District
appropriations, refuses to grant, all
signs last night still indicated that both
the pay bill and District appropriation
bill would fail this session.
Walks Out Of Conference.
Mr. Simmons walked out on q con-
ference with the Senate on the appro-
priation measure, refusing to even con-
slider any modification of the $9000,- -
900 lump sum contribution by the Fed
eral Government, while the, Senate con-
ferees assured him they would not in
sist upon the full amount Of the $12,-
100000 contribution approved by the
Senate.
On the police and firemen's pay in
crease bill the House accepted the So
called Donovan-SimmonS amendments
even after the District committee had
voted against them. When the bill
went to the Senate, that body disagreed
to the House changes and asked for a
conference. Mr.. Simmons refused. to
allow the bill to be sent to conference
under unanimous consent. Some hope
has been entertained that the House
Nrules committee might grant a special
rule to send the bill to conference, but
House leaders last night intimated that
this chance Is exceedingly slight.
Tired of Surrendering.
The Senate leaders are tired of the
passive role Of surrendering every year
to the exactionS of the House conferees
on the District appropriation bill and
are ready for q showdown, 1t is in
dicated. A report was spread at the
Capitol late yesterday that the provi-
sions of q continuing resolution to take
care of routing appropriations for the
District without any new projects were
under consideration.
Similarly, the members of the House
District committee are clamoring to
their representatives in the negotia-
tions to stand firm against any further
surrender of the rights of the legisla-
tive committee and are ready to let the
police and f1remen's pay bill fail land
let the blame rest where it belongs"

In view of this situation, the Com

opinion that the Gravelly Point site

of the Highway Bridge site, and that If
the development Of the GEavelly Point
site should be authorized at this time

three years that would be superior to
anything that can be developed on the

INVESTIGATION TO BE MADE.


ward ID. G. Tags In Maryland
BY a Stan Correspondent Of The Star.
SILVER SPRING, Md, June T.-An
immediate investigation of the freight
hauling operations of trucks with D. C.
tags in nearby Maryland will be made
by Col. E. Austin Baughman. Mary
land commissioner of motor vehicles,
it was learned yesterday.
In letter to Arthur c. Keefer, local
attorney, and former member Of the
Maryland Legislature, Col. Baughman
declares that "aS soon as an operator
from a foreign State or the District OF
Columbia comes into Maryland and
picks up goods and carries them to
another point in this State or out of
the State entirely. 1t is necessary for
him to have Maryland registration"
The commissioners letter was in reply
to one from Keefer objecting to re-
cent order requiring the Tri-State
Trucking Co. and other local concerns
which operate trucks to Baltimore and
other large Maryland cities, to obtain
permits from the Public Service Com
mission.
Companies of this type, which oper-
ate trucks over fixed routes under regl-
lar schedule or between fixed termini,
have their trucks classed as common car
rierS, and must obtain Maryland licenses,
the State authorities say. However, In
terstate truckers. who act as general
haulers, only going into the State oc-
caSionally as their business demands,
are not included in the new order it
was said at the motor vehicle commis-
Sioner'S office earlier this week.
Keefer contends the State cannot
legally make this distinction, and In
formed Col. Baughman that many
trucks were in daily operation near the
District of Columbia line, hauling
freight into and out of Maryland. The
commissioner said this matter would be
taken up with Capt. Butler, chief of
the State police force, for immediate
investigation.

A proposal is before Lieut.. Col. U. S.
