FRAT BOYS WIN
ARSON PROBE

An inquiry into the conviction
of Edward J. PARTON and Alfred
E. Smith who we're sentenced to
a prison term on a charge Of
arson is being conducted by the
Department of Justice.
The youths we're convicted of
having set fire to a fraternity
house on N Street Northwest,
July 9, 1888, endangering the
lives of a number of other mem
bers. Both youths claim they
we're many miles away in a
broken down automobile, having
left the city many hours before
the blaze. They are now under
bond and their attorney, Percy
H. Marshall, has just filed his
appellate brief in the District
Court of Appeals.
An official of the Department
of Justice said no official in
vestigation is being conducted,
but that persons connected with
the trial are being examined.
He added that this examination"
follows a visit the youths made
to the department when they
asked for a probe of what they
claimed to be a lack of motive.

Unsightly D. c. Waterfront
Due to Get New Deal

Dotted with dilapidated struc-
lures, Washington's unsig HI tly
waterfront would be transformed
into a thing of beauty if the plans
for its improvement were carried
out.
In place of a hodge-podge of
commercial activity, jumbled with
a curious mixture of the finest
types of pleasure cruisers to be
found anywhere, the waterfront
would become a beautiful section
with a tree-shaded boulevard run
ming along its front.
The problem of space for the
craft that find their way up the
Wa ashingto and Georgetown
channels also would be answered
if the plans, already drawn UP by
the Engineers Office of the War
Department, ever were put into
effect.
Cost Computed
Improvement of the Potomac
River and its waterfront would
cost about $1,650,000, according to
Roland M. Brennan, chief clerk
in the Engineers Office of the
District of Columbia.
There would be, under the New
Deal" for the river, accommoda-
tions for 286 yachts and small
boats in place of the meager quar-
ters now allotted 1876 water craft.
The workhouse wharf would be
removed to the foot of Sixth
Street, or somewhere along the
Anacostia River front.
The upper section of the Wash
ington Channel would be devoted
exclusively to pleasure-craft, the
activities of the commercial type
of boat being centered to the
south. A new pier would be
erected for the Notwithstanding
ton steamboat line and the police
wharf would be Widened.
Appropriation Lost
Appropriation of the money to
carry out the eight-year program
of reconstruction and beautifica-
tion of the waterfront was con-
tanned in the rivers and harbors
bill which was reported out of a
House committee this year. The
bill never got as far as the House
floor, but observers believe it
stands a good chance in the COM
ing session of Congress.
The improvements, under the
plans now drawn up, would be
made under the supervision of the
War Department. Administration
of the channel, after the work is
completed, would be turned over

DONOVAN GIVES
SIDE Of CASE

Gen. Hugh S. Johnson, NRA
Administrator, was charged with
acting arbitrarily, and other NRA
officials with being prejudiced, at
a public hearing today before the
National Labor Relations Board
on the dismissal of John L. Dono-
van from the Labor Advisory
Board for "inefficiency and inSub-
ordination"
Mr.. Donovan, formerly a tech
nical labor advisor to the board,
testified for several hours con-
corning his discharge June 18,
after he had been involved in sew
eral NRA labor disputes as presi-
dent of the NRA union of the
American Federation of Govern
ment Employees.

The dismissed NRA empIoye is

charged because OF MS union aC-

reason of inefficiency and insub-

Mr.. Donovan told the board
that DR.. Gustav Peck, a member
Of the Labor Advisory Board, had
charged him on one occasion
with being inefficient, running
around on Government time, and
making a nuisance of yourself"
DR.. Peck also said, Mr.. Donovan
continued, that he had been dis
missed because he had "sold out"
certain members of the board and
because he was not in favor of
NRA policies.
Mr.. Donovan denied both these
charges. He told the board that
he was given notice of his dis
miSSal by General Johnson him.

Mother In Hospital Smiles

Mrs. Ivy Watts, young and
pretty mother, rested more easily
in her bed at the tuberculosis
Hospital today-a picture of her
three children, whom she has
not seen for several months,
propped up in front of her.
The picture is one she re-
queSted The Washington Times
to make, in a letter in which she
set forth that she hadn't seen her
youngsters for 80 long and did
so want to see what they look
like"
The Times made the picture
of the children, also stricken
with tuberculosis, who are now
at the Children's Health Camp,
and sent it to Mrs. Watts.
Today The Times received an
other letter from Mrs. Watts,
The Washington times., 1934-08-10

other patients what swell-loOk-
