Opposition to a one man form Of gov
eminent for the District OF Columbia
developed from a new source today
when Senator Thomas. Democrat. OF
Oklahoma, revealed that if there is to
be any change in the local set-up. he
would favor charging the existing
Board of Commissioners.
Advancing a new theory that the varl-
Gus sections of the city should be rep
resented on the Board of Commits
sioners, Senator Thomas suggested that
instead of concentrating local authority
in a city manager or similar official, he
would prefer to Sc the board enlarged
from three to five members and Sc
lected with the idea of having them
represent different parts Of the city.
II would not object to the present
arrangement of having the commits
sioners appointed by the President. but
I would have a commission OF five In
stead of three, so that all parts of the
city could have voice on the board,
Senator Thomas said.
Sees One Man Dictator.
Under no condition would I favor a

plan would be heading toward"

.CATALANO DISPUTE
TO Be AIRED AGAIN
Attorneys for Company Meet
BrickIayers' Counsel at
Pay Hearing Monday.

Attorneys for the Catalano Construc-
ton Co. will meet Monday with counsel
for bricklayers employed by the firm
on erection of the Phelps Vocational
School in a renewed attempt to de-
termine how much money should be
paid to the bricklayers to make up
past payments which were less than
the legal scale required by the Bacon
Davis prevailing" wage law.
William F. Kelly. representing the
and Albert A. Stern, attorney for the
bricklayers, as well as Baltimore at
torney for Catalano, are to engage in
the conference. Stern has threatened
to take the matter to court unless sat-
isfactory agreement is reached.
Under an agreement made voluntarily
with Corporation Counsel Bride, whose
investigation showed the workmen had
not been paid the prevailing scale for
this area, Catalano promised to make
up the difference in the scales paid and
those required by law BY the same
agreement. the District has withheld q
payment of $4,000 to the contractor, on
September l. and is to withhold another
$4,000 payment to the firm on Octo-
Der /, to cover the payments due the
workmen.
Unless the company, its bonding
agent and the counsel for the workmen
can reach final agreement on how much
is to be paid the workmen for their
past employment. Bride indicated today,
the sums withheld from the contractor
eventually will have to be restored to
him.

there have been recurring reports
throughout the Summer that some
such change in the organic law OF the
District is being considered in admins

Senator Thomas pointed out that any
proposed change in the local govern
ment would go before the Senate Dis
trict Committee. and that he is not
a member Of that group. Chairman
King of the Senate District Committee
has gone on record several times
against a one-man system of govern
ment.
Views of Wide Interest.
Although not on the District Legisla-
tive Committee Senator Thomas views
are of special interest because of his
position as head of the subcommittee
in charge of District appropriation
bills in the Senate Appropriations Com
mittee.
In discussing his suggestion that the
various sections Of the city be repre-
scented on the Board Of Commissioners
Senator Thomas said that some years
ago he headed a commission to draw
up a charter for Lawton, Okla, anc
that the plan evolved there was com.

a decision rendered in Police Court by
Judge Isaac r. Hit.
N. B. Baker, 1000 block Kansas ave-

yesterday on a charge Of parking in
front OF laundry at 623 G street, be-
tween shipping entrance signs.
His attorney. Max L. Shulman. re-
membered that on July l. 1928. all
shipping entrance-no parking" per-
mits were 'voided by court order and
had to be renewed after that date to
become effective again.
The laundry company in front Of
which Baker had parked had failed to
renew its permit, Shulman proved to
the court, and the case against his
client was dismissed.
Court attaches warned that many
other such signs probably were being
displayed without authority Of law and
that merchants had better check up
to see II their permits had been re-
newed IN accordance with the order
issued i've years ago.
