BUS SHIFT HIT
BYVANDUz

Dealing a blow to residents of
Monroe Street Northeast, Traffic
Director William A. Van Duzer
testified before the Public Utilities
Commission today that he did not
regard the thoroughfare as heav
lily Travelled.
Monroe Street residents, be-
tween Twelfth and Twenty-Second
Streets Northeast, petitioned the
commission to have the Rhode
Island Avenue bus line operations
cut from tWo-Way to one-Way,
They asked that the westward
route of the bus be switched either
to Newton or Lawrence Street.
They have been fighting for such
a change since 1881. Residents
of both Lawrence and Newton
Streets have protested against the
BUSES running over their re-
Spective thoroughfares.
Director Van Duzer said a traf-
fic count showed that an average
of $50 vehicles an hour pass along
Monroe Street and their movement
is facilitated by parking ban on
the south side.
He told the commission that at
the heaviest period during a traf-
fic count 779 vehicles passed and
373 behicleS at the lightest period.
On Lawrence Street with no park
ing restrictions, 1913 vehicles were
counted during peak and $50 at
a minimum, while along Newton
Street, which also has no parking
ban, the maximum was 208 and
the minimum $50.
Peoples Counsel William A. Rob-
erts is counsel for the Monroe
Street residents. He asked Director
Van Duzer to maze the traffic
check in the hope that the COM
mission would override its decision
of last March, when it turned
down a similar petition.

NAMES
OFFICER FOR
JUVENILES
Kasius Named to See
Children Stay Off
Streets at Niqht

In an effort to prevent juvenile
delinquency and to keep young
children free from the stigma of
police records, Major Ernest w.
Brown, superintendent of police,
announced today the appointment
of a special Juvenile Relations
Officer and said he would issue
an order within the next few days
for all policemen to maintain a
careful check on children seen on
the streets late at night.
Andrew w. KaSiuS, a private in
the Crime Prevention Bureau who
has been closely associated with
juvenile work for a number of
years, was named Juvenile Rela-
tons Officer.
Check on Children
To promote "closer parental
SUPERVISION" Major Brown said,
he would order all policemen to
take the names and addresses of
children seen on the streets with
out parents late at night and to re-
port these children to Kasius.
KasiuS will interview the parents
Of these children in an effort to
prevent any possibility of their fall
ing into wrongdoing.
AS soon as he can find the men
properly qualified, Major Brown
said, he plans to increase this
juvenile department to three, as
signing another white officer and
a colored policeman to this work.
Cites Instance
Citing as an example of the
need for a close checkup Of
juveniles to prevent their Straying
into criminal paths, Major BorWn
said:
Last night / was coming
home from the fights about
1880 o'clock and 1 saw a small
colOred child riding a tricycle.

should have been notified so
that they might keep closer

appears that the District highway

SULTAN COOL TO PLAN
Commenting on the proposal,
Daniel I. Sultan, District En-
gineer Commissioner, under whom
such work would come, said:
"The suggestion for the new
bridge between Key and Chain
bridges is a good idea, but is one
Of those things that is off in
the future. The traffic is not
sufficiently heavy to justify the
expense.
"As to the protest against
the new Chain Bridge being of
the twO-lane type, my answer is
that, with the money which has
been allowed us, we could build
a three.lane bridge, but the
lanes would be quite narrow, so
I feel it would be much more to
the benefit of the public to
build structure with two good,
wide lanes"

Tells of Delivering
Message for Him

Harry T. Thompson, former
Navy petty officer who was sem
fenced this week to Is years in
prison for espionage, today was
linked with an official of the
japanese Embassy here.
This revelation came on the
heels of the discovery that Thomp-
sons sister, Mrs. Grace Kraft, Of
Baltimore, had given the informa-
ton which resulted in the arrest
and conviction of Thompson as a
spy employed by the japanese.
Mrs. Kraft admitted in her
statement to Baltimore police that
her brother had asked her to take
a letter to a certain apartment
in a fashionable Massachusetts
apartment house.
When she arrived there, she
said, the door was opened by a
Japanese, and in the room she
saw several others. The apart
ment number she gave is occu.
pied by a member of the Embassy
staff.

Despite her fears, Mrs. Kraft,
in Baltimore today, broke her
silence of several months and re-

spy plot. She said:

It was a three.way battle in November, but in a state which gave Franklin D. Roosevelt Q 76,000 majority. Al Landon came out on top by 5000.
