PRECINCT TRAFFIC
BUREAUS OPPOSED
Trade Board Group Against De-
Capitalization Plan Given
Crime Body.

Decentralization of Traffic Bureau
with the assignment of traffic police
men to the several precincts was op-
posed yesterday by the Trafic Com
mittee of the Washington Board OF
Trade meeting at the Harrington Ho-
tel.
Attack on the plan advocated before
the House Crime Investigating Com
mittee was made by Capt. Milton
Smith of the Traffic Bureau; Capt.
Eugene F. Mitchell, associated for sew
eral years with the International As
sociation Of Police Chiefs; c. Melvin
Sharpe and others.
Capt. Mitchell said attempts to use
such a system had proved failures in
other cities and he forecast similar
failure here. He also pointed out that
decentralization would make ticket
fixing" easier.
Capt. Smith also said that the plan
might result in less efficiently trained
officers and use of the mounted men
as messengers rather than active d.
rectors of traffic.
The committee also approved plan
to publish the names of persons whose
driving permits have been revoked. A
special committee was named to study
the subject.

igan Senator pursued. Baruch agreed.
Demands that America make its
plans now to keep out of any future
war among other powers received new
emphasis today with disclosure that
Chairman Nye is ready to offer tenta-
tive bills to that end.
Although Senator Nye did not dis
close the details, the bills were re-
ported to deal with foreign travel by
Americans in war time, trade with
belligerents and foreign loans. The
aim is to prevent the United States
being drawn into war through such
activities.
Denies Nationals Right.
Already Baruch has told the COM
mittee mo national has the right to
60 into the trouble zone and expect
this Nation to back him If he gets into
difficulties"
Baruch has said at Is most i'm
portant that this Nation establish neu-
trality laws"
Meanwhile the drive to take profits
out of war was carried to new front
with an announcement by Representa-
tive Maverick, Democrat, OF Texas,
that he would introduce in the House
anti-war-proflts legislation along lines
favored by Nye.
1t Is understood the Nye measure,
which Maverick said he would offei

John T. Flynn, economist and writer
Among other things the Flynn plar

which has been incorporated in the

That ceiling. he said, would pre-
vent the fluctuations which worried
industrial leaders during the last war
and brought the much criticized cost

Baruch expressed the view to re-
porters that the Flynn plan Of a
SIC, 1000 limit on incomes might upset
living conditions and industrial ma
chinery so seriously as to affect pro-
duction,

reach a reconciliation about the
amount due"
Roberts said he is preparing statute
to remedy that situation.
Roberts declared there is tendency
in the District courts to give short
sentences-a custom he said he be-
lieved grew up before creation of the
Parole Board. He said Congress
should carefully review the penalties
and sentences with a view to extend
ing the maximum.
Insertion of a graft statute in the
District Code also was recommended
to prevent minor peculations on the
part of persons acting In an official
capacity.
Our whole penal code is obsolete" i"
he declared "A law for the recodi-
fcation of the District Code should
be passed"
Proposes Collateral Scale.
Roberts told the committee that
fines are the most ineficient way OF
Furnishing a man for crime, pointing
out that for the same offense a poor
man is fined the same as rich man
although the former can hardly pay II
while the latter scarcely cares.
Next he suggested the possibility Of
changing the collateral deposit scales
and permitting the precinct captains
to use discretion as to the amount OF
collateral to be posted in each indi-
vidual case.

who were not covered by the COM
pulsory annuities, for which the bill
levies tax on pay rolls and earnings.
Under the proposed voluntary an
nuity system, any one could have
bought annuity certificates from the
Treasury which would have assured
him an income Of not more than $50
a month.

feated, l3 To II, an identical motion

erick said. "It gives the President

abrogates the power Of Congress.

heads who went through the war die

mented. He reiterated desire to 'go
along" with the Senate committee to
evolve some method Of curbing prices
and taxing profits that would help
the country pay as you flght," but
not "stifie" production.
He explained his proposal for put

Didn't Fix Tickets.

Fixing tickets is only symptom" !"
he declared. "I was in the corpora
tion counsels Office for years and I
never fixed a single ticket. When
people got to know wouldn't get
tickets fixed for them they didn't
ask me.
by fixing, mean it in the same
sense as most citizens do-fixing
tickets improperly. There are some
cases where it is all right to have
tickets go as warnings, and this often
does more good than compelling the
technical violator to go through all the
ramifcations in court"
IT am sorry to see one of my pets
fail, that is the triplicate ticket system
which had good deal to do with
in its origin. I thought it was fix
proof.
Its good system if it is properly
carried out, but this hasn't been
done"
Roberts next urged unified police
system in the District after revealing
that there are eight police forces in
this city-the Metropolitan. Park,
White House, Capitol, Capitol
Grounds, Soldiers Home, Agriculture
Department and Geological Park.
Unification Favored.
If these various forces were placed
under one head, and the appropria-
tions for each grouped in one, he
explained, effectiveness of policing
Washington would be increased mate
rally.
These present multiple forces, he
insisted, cause conflicts in jurisdiction
which are SILLY and unnecessary"
While Commissioner Hazen is theo-
retically called the police commits
sioner, Roberts declared. his power
over the Police Department is limited
to the desires of the two other Com
nnissioners.
"Hazen is not the police commits
sioner," he said. 1.-THE Commissioners
have no authority as individuals.
They must act as board. To assign
one Commissioner to the Police De-
partment and say that he must have
J charge Of that department is a
fallacy."
Next Roberts recommended the
creation Of a department of public
safety, to include fire, police and
weights and measures, headed by one
civilian.
Roberts later declared the Parole
Board had been criticized recklessly
by men who ought to know better"
1.-THE theory of parole" he said, "is
not only social but an economic
necessity"
But" he added, you can't have
q parole system If you are going to
select volunteers who get no salary.
We need a full-time Parole Board
and an adequate staff"
Conducts Small Court"
Roberts explained that in his posi-
ton as peoples counsel he is conduct
ing a small claims court without au-
thority of law for people who come to
his ofilce about landlord, tenant and
other distressing problems.
Hundreds of poor people come to
my office for legal aid" he declared.
"There are small storekeepers. house.

hire persons for several weeks and
then tell them: You're no good, get
