FUND TO BE ASKED
FOR HOTEL PROBE
Special Senate Subcommittee
Forced to Delay May
flower Inquiry.

Plans for the investigation into the
financing and proposed reorganization
of the MayfoWer Hotel, ordered by
the Senate District Committee late
yesterday, are expected to await action
by the Senate on resolution request
ing 81 900 to cover expenses.
When the committee approved the
investigation, it was thought the in
quiry could get under way at once by
having an assistant corporation coun-
sci detailed to assist the subcommittee
1t was announced this morning, how
ever, that resolution would be pre-
Sented to the Senate on the subject.
Chairman King of the District Com
mittee stated at yesterdays meeting
that the committee has sufficient au-
thority under a general resolution
passed at the beginning of this Con-
gress to proceed with hearings and to
call witnesses, but that if additional
funds were found necessary, a resolu-
ton would have to be reported to the
Senate.
The committee ordered the inquiry
following the filing of report by
Senators Kean of New Jersey and
Reynolds of North Carolina, on the
resolution of Senator Gibson of Ver-
mont. One of the questions raised in
the Gibson resolution is whether the
contemplated reorganization is in the
interest of security holders.
Evening star., 1934-06-01

Hubert Holloway of the American
Automobile Association and Corpora
ton Counsel Prettyman.
j. Dalton, head of the Blue Light
Taxicabs, said he favored the separ-
ate compulsory insurance bill for
taxicab operators, but was opposed
to this safety responsibility bill. The
House, however, defeated the separate
taxicab bill after it had passed the
Senate.
Senator Reynolds of North Carolina
led the fight for action on the safety
responsibility bill the House approved.
In the subcommittee meeting which
followed the regular meeting the bill
was modified to give the Commission
ers discretionary instead of compul-
sorry power to withhold permits In
cases where unpaid accident judg-
ments are pending against a motorist.
The requirement that "a motorist OBJ
tain insurance when his permit has
been revoked for serious traffic Of
Tense remains mandatory, however.
The bill would not affect motorists
unless they are convicted of serious
traffic violations.
The committee heard further argu-
ments on liquor law amendment to
allow chain stores to apply for beer
licenses, but again postponed action.
AT present only one unit in a chain
can obtain a license.
