TOMORROW TO END
/ LOCAL HOME LOANS
Washington Owners Given Until
Midnight to File Appli-
cations.

Washington home owners who wish
10 apply to Home Owners Loan Cor
poration for distress loans were
warned today by William E. Foster.
acting director for the District, that
the deadline for applications is mid
night tomorrow.
Foster said his Office, at 101 Indiana
avenue, would be kept open until the
deadline. When funds under the new
81 500 ,0000 900 H. o. L. c. extension
act became available late in May,
John H. Fahey, corporation chairman,
announced that new applications would
be accepted for a period of 80 days,
though the corporation had a large
number of old applications which it
was unable to take care of before its
original appropriation was expended.
It was held unlikely today that Fahey
would extend the deadline for new
applications.
The volume of applications since ac-
tivity was resumed a month ago has
been much lighter in Washington
than was anticipated, Foster said.
Only about $50 new applications for
loans had been received through yes
terday, though large number of local
cases which had been declared inac-
tive because of the corporations lack
OF funds have been reopened.
Foster said the small number of ap-
plications was due to improved eco
nomic conditions and to the fact that
private home financing institutions
were assuming a more liberal attitude
toward the borrower.

DC. lob INSURANCE.
BILL CHANGES DUE.
Senate Subcommittee on
Social Security Plans
Begins Hearing.
MISS HELEN L. PETER,

A number of changes in the local
unemployment insurance bill as it
passed the House were expected to be
considered when the Special Senate
Subcommittee on the Districts social
security program began a hearing late
this afternoon. The subcommittee
also has before 1t the House old-age
pension bill, but this measure is not
expected to lead to much discussion
since it was considered at both ends
of the Capitol last year.
Among the questions likely to be
debated on the unemployment insur-
ance bill are the provision which
raises the pay roll tax above per
cent when an employer has poor
record for stabilizing employment,
without reducing the tax below per
cent when good record Is shown for
keeping men at work: the require
ments that the pay roll tax start Of
at per cent. whereas the National
security bill provides for a gradual
increase from 1 per cent to per cent
over three-year period; the question
of whether the District government
should be required to supplement the
pay roll tax by an additional con-
tribution of per cent of the pay rolls
of the employers subject to the bill.
The subcommittee is composed Of
Senators Copeland. Democrat, of New
York and Capper, Republican, Of
Kansas.
Meanwhile Chairman King Of the
Senate District Committee is having
minor changes made in the local bill
for pensions to the needy blind, to
conform to the standards laid down
in the national social security bill.
The blind pension bill passed the
Senate Monday, but Senator King
had 1t reconsidered yesterday when it
was found that the definition covering
the residence requirement did not CO.
incide with the definition in the ma
tional bill. AS in the case of old-age
pensions. the plan is to have the
Federal Government make grants to
supplement pensions to the blind.

German Who Shipped Himself
TOU. s. in Box Seeks Citizenship

The second misfortune occurred dur
ing unloading of the box, when
freight handlers up-ended it and left
Thoeing standing on his head. This
was adding insult to injury and the
weakened passenger kicked his way
out of his cramped quarters. Imigra-
ton officers then took him In hand,
found that his papers for admittance
were satisfactory and put the question
UP to officials of the steamship line
as to what action they would take.
Thoeing contended that he had
come over as freight, and that he
was willing to pay freight rates. He
did-to the extent of $2l-and then
became swallowed up in New York's
millions.
Comes to Washington.
Five years ago he was married. two
years ago he came to Washington,
where he is now employed by an

Crossing the Atlantic Ocean in a
cofin is an effective way Of cutting
down costs, but take the advice of
one who has tried 1t and go some
other way.
In 1928, John Henry Thoeing of
Duisburg, Germany, decided to come
to America. He obtained the Y1eces-
sary papers for admittance to this
country, then sought job on one Of
the ships leaving Hamburg. Here q
complication arose when all lines re-
fused to take on crew members who
would not agree to make the round
trip.
Having insufficient money for pas
sage, Thoeing collected packing box,
a five-gallon jug of water, some bread
and few other incidentals. Ad-
dressing the box to German family
In New York and marking it house

Of q boy and pushcart. The boy
nailed him in, wheeled the freight
aboard the ship Cleveland Of the
Hamburg American line, marked 1t

his trip.
Five Days Of Thirst.
Unfortunately for the passenger,
however, the cork In his water Jug
had become loosened and part OF his
water supply was lost. Seven days
out of Hamburg, the remainder Of the
supply was used up, the bread was too
dry to eat and for the next i've days
Thoeing neither ate nor drank.

today filed proposals for projects hav-
ing a total cost of 81, 100000.
None of the applications will be ap-
proved by Allen until they have been
checked and found worthy by en-
gineers operating under Capt. Howard
F. Clark, deputy District works prog
ress administrator. If finally approved
by Allen they will be forwarded to the
Federal Works Progress Administra-
ton.
A host Of additional proposals are
expected to be filed with Allen in the
next few days, and millions are to be
spent in the next year Oh projects de-
signed to give continuous employment
to the needy who have been depend
ent on the District for relief and who
are in the employable class.
Traffic Survey Proposed.
William A. Van Duzer. trafic d.
rector, one of the first officials to
submit definite proposals. suggested
that relief clients be employed on a
city wide traffic survey to produce
data to be used as guide in solution
of Washington's traffic problems. He
proposed an employment program
which would call for the expenditure
of s73,900. The traffic director also
submitted a group of projects for white
collar work which would use $500 in
employment of the needy. These would
be set to work in handling files in
the traffic department and other cleri-
cal operations in connection with traf-
fic matters.
The largest proposal came from the
sewer department which proposed ex-
penditure Of $3.50, 400 in a program Of
extension and improvement Of sewers.
The Quartermaster Corps of the
United States Army submitted a pro-
posal calling for expenditure of S270,-
900 for grading and other work for
the improvement of Boiling Field.
Street Unit Asks S160,400
The Street Cleaning Division OF the
District asked for s160.400 for the
employment of additional men TO be
used in street cleaning operations. The
argument was made that the District
appropriation for this division is not
sufficient to permit employment of
enough regular workers to enable the
division to keep the city as clean as
should be done.
Commissioner Allen, District works
progress administrator. already has
submitted to the Federal agency a
number Of projects for sewer and
highway improvements which would
cost $1,500.000. Up to noon today he
had received no word from Federal
officials as to their action on these
plans.

BILL ABOL|SH|NG
HIDDEN BAR HERE
IS TO Be SIGNED
President Indicates Inten-
ton Despite Commission
ers' Attitude.
ALLEN SAYS ACTION
WOULD BE OPPOSED
Still Opposed to Open Mixing Of
Drinks, but Recognizes Pre-
dominant Views.

President Roosevelt indicated to-
day that he would sign the bill abol-
ishing the so-called hidden bars in
the District when it reaches him. 1t
was passed in the Senate yesterday
and the House approved it several
days ago.
Commissioner Allen, who backed
the requirement that drinks be mixed
out of sight of customers in the orig
inal regulations, declared that if the
President should ask the Commission
ers' opinion on the bill before he acted
on it, the Commissioners would record
their opposition as voiced in the past
but would not make any fight to have
the President kill the measure in view
of the action of Congress and the
"public" sentiment.
Against Open Mixing.
The Commissioners are on record
opposed to abolishing Our present sys-
tenn. and most certainly I will main
tain consistent position. l believe
open mixing of drinks wrong but in
fairness I must say it appears I am
licked. Overwhelming sentiment ap-
pears to be in favor Of the change -
Allen said.
When the liquor regulations we're
drawn the President made known to
the Commissioners that he wanted
nothing resembling the old-time saloon
to return to the District Allen in
terpreted this as an indication that
open mixing of drinks in hotels. res
taurants and clubs would be obiec-
tionable to the President.
A new complication arose TODAY
when George W. Offutt, chairman of
the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board.
said he would ask the Commissioners
to adopt a new regulation requiring
licensed liquor selling places to set UP
separate bar for the mixing of
drinks. This would be intended to
keep mixing of drinks of hard liquor
away from lunch counters at which
food Is served and where beer may
now be drawn. Offutt. who favored
abolition of the hidden bar. is afraid
there will be a temptation for GUS
toners to drink liquor at the lunch
counters either while standing or
while seated on stools in front of the
counter. This would be a violation
of the basic, liquor law. which requires
that hard drinks be served and con-
sumed by customers only when served
at tables, On learning of this move,
Allen said promptly he would have
nothing to do with it and let the law
operate under the system as amended
by Congress.
