ATHLETIC OFFICE
 TO BE ABOLISHED
Dept. of Public Safety Ad- vocated to Handle State
 Activities

A department of public safety to handle all of the police and related activities of the state is advocated by the report of the state reorgan- ization commission, according to statement released by the commis- sion today.
 The proposed department would be created by consolidating the state police department, the depart ment of motor vehicles, the depart ment of aeronautics, the athletic commissioner, the liquor control commission and the state traffic commission.
 The commissions specific reconf- mendations concerning the depart ment. in summary form, are:
 l. Continue the state police de- partment as department of pub lie safety under a commissioner af public safety appointed for g four year term by the governor with the consent of the senate.
 ?. Establish in that department a non-salaried commission of public safety of seven members appointed for overlapping six-year terms by. the governor with the consent of the senate, to promulgate all rules and regulations for the administra- tion of the laws relating to motor vehicles. aeronautics, boxing and wrestling, occupational licensing and highway traffic.
 3. Abolish the department of mo- tor vehicles and transfer to the de-. partment of public safety all its powers and duties except those re-. lating to gasoline tax administra- tion. i
 4. Abolish the department of aeronautics and transfer its powers and duties to the department of public safety.
 5. Abolish the aeronauticS ad- yisory board and authorize commits sioner of public safety to establish, as needed, technical advisory com mittees to assist tEe commission in formulating rules and regulations for aeronauticS.
 6. Abolish the office of athletic commissioner, including local iii- spectors and transfer its powers and duties to the department of public safety.
 In advocating abolition of tine io- cal fee-paid inspectors of the atn- letic commissioner, the commission says: t5
 Local inspectors irregularly em- ployed under . fee system cannot possibly provide the type of regula- tion which should be enforced and are hardly responsible agents for the assessment and collection of the s per cent gorss receipts tax. "State policemen, on the other hand. are present continuously throughout the state, have general police jurisdiction, and perform their duties under strict control and discipline. Whether or not the office of athletic commissioner Is trans ferred to the department of public safety as we propose, we believe that the local inspectors should be superseded by state policemen" lukE

Personal Pressure Needed

Advisers to Roosevelt are suggest 1ng to him that only prompt appli- cetion of the full power of his per- a4nal prestige can assure any reor- eanization action.
 James Roosevelt, the presidents son and new secretary assistant, &s understood to have taken the Reorganization project under his
 wing-rather than Undersecretary
 ef Interior Charlie West, usually fhe No. l White House liaison man with Capitol Hill. James is in ex- Derienced.
 Among members whom Roosevelt usually can count on to support pro- &ressive legislation, there's an es- Necial concurrence of objection to 4be proposal to bring the independ- ent regulatory commissions in under Experimental roofs.
 What the president had most in mind when that proposal was for rnulated, his advisers whisper, was tne necessity of getting the Federal Trade and Interstate Commerce eommisstons under executive control to the point where they could be eeleaned out"

CHAIN BRIDGES
RAz|NG PUSHED

After SO years, Chain Bridge is
making way for a new 100000
span across the Potomac.
Two Of the eight spans Of the
old bridge have been removed and
the remaining six are to be de-
molished within two weeks. It is
costing approximately $1,000 to
demolish the ancient structure,
which numerous river floods
threatened but never conquered.
Erected in 1854 on the site of
the original Chain Bridge, from
whence it derived it's name, the
present span has always been an
important connection between the
District and Arlington equity. Dur
ig recent years it has carried the
county's total water supply from
the Dalecarlia water plant.
The new span will provide three
traffic lanes and two pedestrian
walks. It is to be erected by the
fuller Construction Company, of
Redbank, N. j., under $342,529
contract.

The cotton gins of the town each
employ few persons in the fall of

pany, owned by Mr.. and Mrs. M. 7.

a few persons, the bank, the Post
