THIEVES BUSY;
CAFES, CARS AND
VISITORS ROBBED
Matte Browns Tavern
Loses $l89

Matte Browns new restaurant,
Thirteenth and H Streets North
west, took "a long count" last
night as thieves staged robberies
throughout the city that netted
them 1902 worth of cash, clothing,
SilVerware and jewels.
Brown, former heavyweight ring
star, who once went ten rounds
with Joe Louis, spent almost as
much time reporting to police last
night. Thieves, he said, entered
his office on the third floor of the
restaurant and took $189 from his
desk.
STEAL LIQUOR
Another restaurant owner who
was victimized, Joseph M. Galliott,
told police that sneak thieves at
tempted to steal the supply Of
Scotch whiSkey from his place at
320l Fourteenth st. N. W.. but
succeeded in getting away with
only two quarts valued at 81. A
full case, he said, was left in an
alley as the ROBBERS were fright
ened away.
Marie F.. Wesley, "a, a visitor
from Montreal, Canada, returned
to her room in Claridge Hotel to
find that her $3.50 sable furS had
been taken.
PURSE AND CASH
An unlocked door cost Ozella
Nixon, of 1900 F. Street Northwest,
her pocketbook and $39. She re-
ported that robbers entered her
apartment through the door which
had been left unlocked and took
the purse and money from a
couch.
Silverware and cash, valued at
$120 were stolen from the apart
ment of Cornelius Burke, 447 q
st. N. w., according to police.
The Washington times., 1938-07-06

He said this in an interview
today in explaining why he would
not take the post of executive head
of the Distilled Spirits Institute,
which represents 10 per cent of the
diStillerS of the country.
DR.. James M. Doran, former
Federal prohibition officer who
has held that position almost con-
tinually since the repeal of pro.
hibition, asked in Washington yes
terday to be relieved Of the post
on September /.
A successor to Doran is to be
elected in New York next Tuesday.
Tunney'S name had been promi-
nently mentioned.
GENE EXPLAINS
Tunney, now 40, and looking in
fine physical condition, explained
he couldn't take the job because of
his obligations to his company. He
is chairman of the board which
represents $500 shareholders, he
pointed out.
Il also believe" he added,
"that the man who is to be ap-
pointed should have judicial
training. This man will have
many important decisions to
make. I am on the committee
which will select DR.. Doran'S
successor.
Il am in favor of appointing
a man like Judge Lands who
rules baseball, or Will H. Hays,
who supervises the motion pic
ture industry. We feel our in
dustry ought to enlarge the
scope Of the institute.
whoever is selected should
be all-powerful. He should have
the power, after hearing, of as
SesSment. Every company in
the industry should place a bond
with the institute and there
should be no appeal from any
assessments"
LIKES HIS JOB
Tunney likes his job, likes the
liquor industry. He says it has
tremendous romance" in it, that
it gives him cross-section of
American life and like sports
there is a democracy about the
business.
Four years ago Tunney became
a director of the American Dis
tilling Company. He served on the
finance committee three years and
on January last he became chair
man of the board. He is regarded
as a firSt-claSS businessman.
He said he is in favor of a ma
tion-wide alliance of liquor dealers
dedicated to self-regulation, self
and to the elevation of
the entire industry to a higher
plane of public acceptance and ap-
proVal,
