a dramtic SEQUEL to his efforts to force
the retirement of Inspector Frank S. W.

of Police and Fire Surgeons thwarted
this plan by finding Inspector Burke
physically fit for continued duty. and

three local measures were completed
and signed by the President. namely.
The bill requiring barber shops, hair
dressing and manicure establishments
to close one day in seven under reg,I-
lations to be promulgated by the Com
miSsioners. Another was one which
gives the District Commissioners au-
thority to close streets and alleys that
are no longer essential because of
changes in the highway plan, thus pre-
venting frequent appeals to Congress
for action on some dead-end street.
The third amended the traffic law to
grant issuance of special distinctive
tags to certain specified officers at the
Capitol.
A general license law to regulate
the fees collected by the District from
various types of occupations and busi-
