Photographer Frank Cancellare of the NEA Service Waterbury Democrat Washington staff was covering the White House the other day, snapping pictures of important men after they had conferred with President Roose- welt. On his way back to the darkroom he happened to mo- tice these little girls, Patricia Freeman and Frances Gross, having fun sliding on the new railing that leads up to the executive offices. He said he thought they made a right cute picture and it showed the new railing pretty well.
 Yes, it's a cute picture-but it's also a very important one because there are very few other capital cities on this troubled globe where it could meet a photographers eye. It simply wouldn't happen.
 Imagine Berlin, or Rome. Imagine even Buckingham Pal- ace. Imagine the palaces of rulers the world around. And then try to imagine two little girls having fun sliding on a railing.
 SS troopers in Berlin <. !. Grenadiers at Buckingham :. Verboten You can't do this, you know. Vigorous shooing away from the Palazzo Venezia in Rome.
 But at the White House little girls slide down the railing and it doesn't seem to affect the progress of Government at all.

ultraviolet Light
Planned for
| YuIe Tree

The national community Christ
mas tree at Lafayette Square this
year will be flooded with ultra
violet light, thus accentuating the
greenness of the tree itself, the
Electric Institute of Washington
announced yesterday.
The addition of the ultraviolet
light to the ordinary flood lights
thrown on the tree was described
as producing a light much more
nearly like daylight, thus bringing
out the true color of the tree.
Besides the lighting effect, $50
specially colored lamp bulbs will be
used on the tree with approximately
100 colored glass stars.
The tree will be lighted each eve
ming until 11:30 o'clock from De-
cember "a through January 2.
Christmas carols and other music
will be reproduced each night
through the loud speakers at the
base of the tree.

however, are opposed to being
fingerprinted. Not for fear Of
past deeds or what may happen
in the future, but they say that
this means Of Identification has
always been reSorted to by au-
thorities against the criminal ele-
ment. There are now sufficient
means Of Identification, they say,
under the present regulations, and
while they would like to see what
ever criminal element among
them taken off cabs, the police
department now has the au-
thority to refuse them permits to
drive, they maintain.
PARMALEE COMPANY
If the fingerprinting and cost
Of insurance take any appreciable
number Of cabs off the streets,
the Parmalee Company, of Chi
cago, operators of large fleets Of
taxicabS in many of the large
cities, will come into Washington
with a fleet of cabs.
They have been in communica-
ton with the owner Of a taxicab
operating company here, and said
that as soon as the financial re-
sponsibility features Of the taxi
cab business here became a per-
manent feature, they would move
in.
The color scheme Of the Parma
lee cabs is now owned in Washing
ton by a District man, but he says
that he is ready to sell to them as
soon as an agreement can be
reached. It is understood that
they plan to bring fleet Of 500
cabs to Washington. Their taxi
cabs will not be the type used here
now. but the regulation taxicab
used in other cities.
SCENT INCREASE
Those taxicab drivers who plan
to stay in business in Washington
after the new law becomes effec-
tive, August %, say that q scent
increase in each zone would help
defray the cost Of insurance.
They claim that any day they do
not make 20 trips, they are loafing
and that an additional 5 cents on
each trip would pay for the insur-
mace.
Most Of the private taxi owners
say they are paying SIS a week for
their cab and with the added ex-
penSe of upkeep they are barely
able to make a decent living now.
If they do not get an increase they
will be forced out Of business, they
say. A conservative estimate Of
the number of taxicabS which will
be taken off the streets by the new
law is estimated at between 20 and
IS per cent by the owners and op-
orators.
