Winfield Attorney Hints
"Higher-Ups Cancelled
Charges.

The case of alleged ticket flXlng
against Second Precinct Pollcemaa
Wexford E. Winfield. being heard to-
dav before the Police Trial Board,
gave indications of reaching higher
UPS" as Defense Attorney Charles e.,
Ford, questioning a witness about Ger
tain tickets in book not contained
in the bill of specifications, said he
"intended to show many of the tickets
in the book had been Cancelled by Po-
lice Department officials. The board
however, ordered Ford's questioning
stricken from the record.
Assistant Corporation Counsel Ed
ward M. Welliver, prosecutor, was
asked by Ford whether certain cam
celed tickets, also not contained in the
bill of specifications, bore his tWel-

did not think his authority on that
subject should be questioned"
Policeman N. NJ. Baker, eighth pre-

the names of higher officers at head
quarters who had ordered Bakers
traffic book brought in, called the
names of three men-Inspector Ben

.REFR|GERAT0RACT
TO Be RESTUD|ED
Tumultuous Protests Greet
Proposed Drastic Code
at Hearing.

Restudy OF the entire draft Of the
proposed drastic refrigerator and air.
conditioning code for the District
was ordered today by Engineer Com
missioner Dan I. Sultan as result
of the tumult of protests that greet
ed the regulations at yesterdays pub
lie hearing
Col. Sultan directed the committee
OF District officials who prepared the
document to confer with representa-
tives of various interested groups and
promised that all would be given full
opportunity to be heard
Prospects are a second hearing will
be held before the Commissioners
consider adoption of new regulations
designed to assure the safety of all
persons using or otherwise affected
by such equipment. Col. Sultan said
it appeared a second hearing would
be necessary.
Code Needed, Sultan Says.
"We need code covering the in
stailatlon, use and repair of such
equipment" Col. Sultan said, but !
do not yet know what provisions
should be included. That is what
We want to find out"
First public announcement OF the
hearing was made Sunday. The pro-
posed code is lengthy and techni-
cal document and was not advertised
Only a relatively few persons had
been apprised of the terms of the
proposed code.
Shouts of disapproval went up from
most of the 200 business men and
property owners attending the hear
ing when Capt. Patrick Henry Tan
sey, Assistant Engineer Commissioner,
who conducted the meeting for the
Evening star., 1937-06-02

foreign office, was believed to be fully
aware of the necessity for quick closure
Of the gap left on the eastern Spanish
coast by the withdrawal of the two
Central European powers from the
patrol.
The territory left unsupervised in
cluded the important ports of Valencia
and Barcelona, which were assigned
to Italy and Germany by the COM
mlttee when it parceled out the coast
of Spain to the international watch
dogs. They were to curb the flow of
arms and men to both government
and lnsurgent factions in the civil
war.
Britain was reported to feel that
the gap must be closed through inter-
national cooperation, however. and
not through a virtual blockade of
Eastern Spain by Italy alone.
British observers felt that the
augmented fleets of Italy and Ger
many would hardly be likely to remain
inactive for long if Russian and other
nations merchantmen went freely in
and out of Spanish government ports.
In some quarters it was hinted the
British admiralty already was con-
slderlng whether more of his maiestyis
fleet could be spared to take over the
additional stretch of coastline-under
the flag of the International Commit
tee-until Germany and Italy could
be prevailed upon to return to the
fold of international corporation.
The main hope of inducing the two
countries to renew participation still
was held, however, to lie in working
out some scheme of safety zones in
which warships of the patrol fleet
would be assured of adequate protec-
ton While resting and refueling.
