ALLEGED K|DNAP
PLOTTERS SEIZED
Four Out of Fl Gangster
Suspects Seen Planning
Raid on Gamblers.

A swift roundup of 81 gangster
suspects early yesterday netted four
men believed to have been plotting
kidnap and extortion raids on the
hauntS of local gamblers.
Seven of the 81 brought in by the
new pickup" squad at headquarters
had been released this morning.
The four held were surprised in a
restaurant near Twelfth and H streets,
seated beside a small handbag con-
tanning three loaded revolvers and a
roll of wide adhesive tape. Gangsters
use this tape to bind and gag their
victims.
Inspector Frank S. W. Burke, chief
Of detectives, said this morning, I'VE
saved some poor devil a long ride
when we picked up that crowd!" No
formal charges had been placed
against any of the suspects today.
The other II arrested were picked
up in rooming houses, cafes and pool
rooms. They included three women.
This latter group was composed OF
individuals known to each other and
the police-the sort of "undesirables'
the department would like to see get
out of town.
A number of those picked up are
suspected gangsters from Baltimore,
Philadelphia and Detroit. For some
reason word seems to have gone out
that Washington gamblers are "easy
pickingS" for extortioniSts and amateur
kidnapers.
A police tour with Maj. Ernest w.
Brown, superintendent of police, was
made last Saturday night and early
Sunday morning by Commissioner
Hazen, who observed at first hand the
work of the pickup" squad.
Accompanying Commissioner Hazen
and Maj. Brown on the tour, which
took in six precincts, were Inspector
T. r. Bean, Lieut.. James r. Kelley,
radio supervisor, and A. j. Sardo,
chairman of the Public Order Com
mittee of the Washington Board Of

Mcleod Measure Seeks to
Transfer Authority on
Minor Duties.
BOARD OF EDUCATION
CONTROL UNCHANGED
Commissioners Own Plan Not
Yet Given to Law
makers.

Representative Mcleod, Republican,
of Michigan today reintroduced his
bill designed to extend the powers Of
the District Commissioners.
Two other bills sponsored by Nc
Leod which died in the last session
of Congress, also were reintroduced.
One provides for a delegate in Con-
greSs from the District and the other
would authorize the Commissioners
to use any accumulated surplus Of tax
revenues for needed public improve
mentS.
The measure extending the powers
of the Commissioners is not as broad
in scope as their own proposed bill,
which has not yet been transmitted
to Congress for introduction.
Would Shift Minor Duties.
Mcleod merely proposes in his bill
to relieve Congress of some of the
minor municipal duties it now per-
forms, such as enacting of legiSla-
ton to provide for the installation Of
private pipe lines, etc. His measure
would not give the Commissioners
control of the Board Of Education, the
trustees of the Public Library. or other
independent District agencies.
The District delegate to Congress,
under McLeod's bill, would be elected
by the Board of Commissioners. He
would have a seat in the House with
the right of debate, but no voting
privilege.
McLeod's other bill is intended to
prevent the District from piling up
surplus of tax revenues in years when
the Budget Bureau refuses to approve
projects that can be provided with
current tax revenues. 1t was first
introduced at a time when Budget
Bureau action was forcing the District
TO accumulate a large surplus Of tax
revenues at the sacrifice of urgently
needed public improvements. This
surplus remained idle in the Federal
Treasury to the credit of the Dis
trict and drew no interest.
Surplus Is 100000.
The District will begin the new
fiscal year July l next with an esti-
mated surplus in the general tax
fund in excess of S2,0O0OO0. Nearly
one-half of this amount, however, will
be wiped out by the end of that
fiscal year on the basis of the 1886
appropriation bill as it passed the
House
All three of McLeod's bills were
referred to the District Committee.

FATHER SUGGESTS
LICENSE BE HELD
Advises Court to Take Driving
Permit to Punish
Speeder.

When Judge Isaac R. Hit caused
18-year-old James A. Stoutenburgh,
jr., to surrender his drivers permit in
Traffic Court last Monday, he did it
at the request of the boys father, who
believes all fathers of boys caught
speeding should take away their boys
driving privileges for 80 days or SEN
tence them to- 80 days in jail
This was made known today when
James A. Stoutenburgh, Sr., of 2006
Columbia road, explained the case to
newspapermen.
His son was arrested for driving SIS
miles an hour and brought before
Judge Hit. Prior to his arraignment
in Traffic Court, the father explained,
he communicated with Judge Hit and
asked that 30-day sentence be i'm
posed on the boy OF his permit taken
away. The boy surrendered his per-
NIT to the judge, at the fathers re-
quest.
Judge Hit then sent the permit to
the Board of Revocations and Restora-
ton of Permits, with request that it
be held for 80 days. The board, how
ever, decided that the judge had no
authority to revoke the boys permit,
this power being lodged by statute in
the District Commissioners or their
designated agents. The board then
returned the permit to the judge and
requested its return to the boy.
Because sentence had been imposed
leaving Judge Hit without authority
to send the young man to jail, he de-
cided to keep the permit locked in his
safe for the 90-day period.
While explaining the idea of depriv-
ing his son of driving privileges was
his own and not Judge Hits, the
father said his motive was for the
protection of his sons life as well as
the safety of others endangered by
reckless drivers speeding through
Washington's streets. Similar action
by other boys fathers would greatly
reduce traffic fatalities here, the father
indicated.
