TRAFFIC BUREAU
isPL|T-UP IS URGED
Capitalization Is Seen by
! Schultz as Curb on
Enforcement.

Representative Schultz, Democrat,
OF Indiana, member of the special
House Crime Committee which re-
Gently completed its investigation OF
crime in the District. declared last
night he would recommend decen-
tralization of the Police Traffic Bureau
in any legislation proposed to correct
defects in law enforcement machinery.
Shortly after the investigation got
under way, Schultz told the Fedora
tion of Business Mems Associations,
crime in the District began. to de-
crease. This fact would seem to prove,
he declared, a great amount of laxity
In supervision by officials.
The Indiana Representative as
serted he believes it Is absolutely es-
sential." if crime, vice and traffic
conditions in the District are to be
improved, that all men in the Traffic
Bureau be placed on the streets under
direct supervision of the various pre-
cinct commanders.
Urges More Motor Cycles.
He said he was gratified by the &C
ton of the Senate District Commit
tee in including in the District supply
bill an appropriation for l41 more po-
licemen for the metropolitan force.
He declared, however. that if this
item is passed, by Congress, at least
rs of these new men should be placed
on motor cycles.
Schultz said the Crime Committee
found there is much gambling in the
District. but that conditions are no
worse here than in other cities OF the
same size.
It will admit that part of the
blame may be laid to shortage Of
police" he said, but you noticed
that crime in the District decreased
when the sweeping investigation got
under way.
"One precinct commander was criti-
cized during the investigation as hard
boiled Well, that's what we need
good, hard-boiled aggressive men at
the head and on the streets" He said
the lack of aggresiveness on the part
Of some of the officials made deep
impression on the committee.
Heavy Odds Claimed.
Schultz took time to read num-
Der of figures designed to estimate the
odds against proper crime control
in the District. They were estimated
by William Seals, secretary of the
Special Crime Committee, as follows:
Odds of 2 to l, against the arrest
of law breaker; 6 to l against in
dictment; 10 to against conviction;
Is to against Jail sentence; 2 to
that a prisoner will be released on
parole.
Schultz called upon the business

said he is wholly in favor of votes
for the District, but believes it will
take greater concentration on the

 School, February 9th

The Overlook Cottage Park club will present it's first play, "Oh, My Stars" Friday evening, February 8, in the Columbia grammar school gymnasium. It is a three-act com- edy and a continuous riot of laughs and amusing situations.
 The scene of the play Is laid in the office of country newspaper. A young girl inherits the news paper and tries to save it from bankruptcy by injecting little pep into the local news. The results are almost disastrous. A temperament tai foreign movie star, a lovable old printer cracking with dry hu- nor and a clustering senator (ac- cording to Will Rogers our great est comedians are in Congress) add to the general gaiety.
 The cast has been very buSily rehearsing for the past seven weeks under the expert direction of Mrs. Selmar Romaine. The members of the cast, all residents of this com munity, and the characters they will portray follow:
 Sally Shipman, Ruth Dowd; Ya- GUS Whiter Everett Stanley; Rena Reynolds. Audrey Smith; Sara Si- monds, Margaret Libby; Mrs. Tru- del, Marjorie Clark; Eleanor Pres colt, Mildred Jarvis; Orva Octar.

More than 25O state druggists were told that Connecticut phar- macists have no desire to dispense liquors to the public on Sunday or election days or before 8 a. m. and after II D. m. on legal sales days, provided no other group of mer- chants does so, by Hugh F.

 He stressed the importance of druggists abiding by whatever law might be on the statute books, and condemned a few, within the trade who would violate 1t due to lack of sympathy for the act.
