Cleanup work by one per
son may easily become dirty-up
work for another if certain
precautions are not followed
during the operation. Rubbish
that is put out for the col

containers or securely bundled
so that it will not blow about.
"CombuStible and incOmbuS-

in separate containers, as the
trucks must haul it to diff

"Our refuse collectors are
strong men, but they are not
piano movers. Please do not
use cans or boxes too heavy for

Other Legislation Advances

Civil service retirement legis-
lation again came under the
Capitol spotlight today as the
Senate and House conferees on
the Dale-Lehlbach bill agreed to
renew their meetings abandoned
more than a month ago. Today's
conference was to be held in the
offices of Representative Freder.
ick r. Lehlbach, chairman of the
House Civil Service Committee.
whose substitute for the original
Dale bill brought on the confer
ence deadlock.
Spokesman for the various
groups of government employees
who awaited anxiously today,
and who have been almost daily
about the Capitol corridors urg-
ing action, were rather confident
that compromise would be
reached in the conference COM

late yesterday and some progress

had for two years or more, but
there is doubt it will be finally
passed at this session. A similar
bill is still in the House Com
mittee.
The Senate committee also re-
ported out the Blaine bill to
license and regulate real estate
brokers in the Capital and to
create a Real Estate Commission.

calendar.
Favorable action also was taken
by the Senate committee on the
Capper bill limiting the juriSdic-
ton of the courts of the District
to review and set aside decisions
of the Public Utilities Commis-
sion.
This stipulates that where there
is substantial evidence" the find
ings of fact by the commission
shall be conclusive and the courts
must confine themselves to points
of law, except where there is al
legged confiscation of property.
Dry Bill Postponed
The Senate committee wran-
gled for more than two hours
over the Howell bone dry" bill.
but action was postponed until
next Tuesday. The Capper bill
to require taxicab companies to
show financial responsibility
also went over to the Tuesday
meeting.
