30,Q77 Cars Pass
Inspection Here
Through July 81
Vehicles Being Approved
At Rate Of 800 a Day;
1870 Rejected in Month

A total of BOOT motor vehicles
passed inspection through July 81
under the Districts compulsory
motor vehicle inspection law, it
was revealed yesterday in statistics
compiled under direction of J. Earl
Steinhauer, supervising inspection
for the Department of Vehicles and
Traffic. Additional vehicles are re-
ceiving the stamp of approval at
the rate of more than 300 a day.
OF the grand total which have
passed since the inspections began
June Is, there were 22,847 inspected
and passed in July OF those pass
ing last month 20,966 were passen-
ger cars, LAO trucks and TAI taxi
cabs.
The total number of passenger
cars which passed inspection from
June Is to July 81 was 24,41O while
the total number of trucks was 1877
and taxicabs 1850.
During July 1880 passenger cars,
53l trucks and 270 taxicabs were re-
jected, representing reflections of
more than SO per cent of the passen-
ger cars, more than 81 per cent re-
jections on trucks and over 26 per
cent reflections on taXicabs.
Improperly adjusted or wrongly
Nfunctioning headlights still was the
main fault found. Mr. Steinhauer
estimated that approximately so per
cent Of the cars which failed to pass
had been turned down on headlights.
Next came brakes with % per cent
OF the total reflections, while the
steering mechanism, he estimated,
caused about II per cent.
Unsigned and expired registra-
tions account for a number of the
automobiles failing to receive Off
cial approval, Mr.. Steinhauer said.
Motorists are given 10 days to
rectify defects and appear again for
inspections after their motor vehi-
cles have failed to pass.
No cars are inspected unless their
owners have received notification
cards, instructing them when to
take the vehicles for inspection.
During this month the schedule
calls for inspection of vehicles whose
tag numbers range from 125-5OO to
150-500.

Pedestrian Law
VioIotors Held
7 Tempting Others

You lead others into temptation
when you violate the pedestrian
control law.
This was the finding today of
Trafnc Court Judge John P, Nc
Mahon. when he was told how John
D. Keane. At, of the HOO block of
Tenth street NV, stepped of the
curb against light at Georgia and
Florida avenues NV. last night and
two others took his cue.
Not only do you violate the law
yourself when you ignore the light,
but you tempt others to do the same
thing" said Judge Mcmahon. "They
follow right behind your bad ex-
ample"
Every day you see a group OF
people waiting at a corner for the
light to change and then some fel-
low starts across and three or four
others follow right behind"
The two who followed Keane paid
81 collateral each. Keane was
locked up all night at No. 13 pre-
cinct station and the court, deciding
he had been punished enough, took
his personal bond.

Mothers Day Liquor Ad Stirs
Protest Before A. b. Board
Verbal Bottle Roges at D. c. Building
Over Proper Entcement of Trade

A civic leader today told the Al
cohol Beverage Control Board that
1t was awful to see Mothers Day
advertising suggesting that one
should remember mother by giving
her bottle of liquor.
H. o. Craver. representing the
Petworth Citizens Association. cited
the Mothers Day example in an
nounclng the support of his group
for the new regulations drafted by
the liquor board to regulate dras-
tlcally the advertisement of liquor
through various mediums. He spoke
at a hearing at the District
Building.
The new regulations. however. en-
countered a flood of objection from
industrial groups.
Mr.. Craver characterized the
rules as "a step in the right direc-
ton. and we hope they will be
adopted" He suggested that the
materials used in advertising plac-
ards be approved by the LIQUOR
board before use by the LIQUOR
licensee.
Mail Circularization Hit.
The proposed rules, said to be
somewhat in line with the program
of the Federal Alcohol Administra-
ton, would place drastic restrictions
on the sizes of signs mentioning al
coholic beverages and place ban
on advertisement of beverages by
means of any printed, mimeographed
or written circular or handbill what
ever which is disseminated or sent
through the mails or otherwise dis
trlbuted, except as to the practice
OF wholesalers and manufacturers
furnishing prices and trade data to
licensees. The board proposed the
rules, saying it had received a con-
tlnued flood of protests from per-
sons objecting to the receipt of liquor
advertisements in dodgers and cir
cular letters. The new rules also
would set up restrictions on the
type of material which could be
used in any form of liquor advertise
ment, including radio broadcasts.
newspaper ads, periodicals or publi-
cations, signs, placards or printed
matter of any kind.
Leonard j. Ganse, representing
the Columbia Neon Sign Co., esti-
mated there are neon signs valued
at $1,200,O00 already installed in the
District and protested that the rules
would be confiscatory if they were
adopted with requirement that all
signs found too large or otherwise
not meeting requirements be re-
Evening star., 1939-08-03

moved within 80 days after adop-
ton of the rules. He also raised the
question of confscation against the
rule which would prohibit use OF
liquor signs causing intermittent
f1ashings of light.
Mr.. Ganse also challenged the au-
thority Of the A. B. c. Board to con-
duct hearings on the rules, since
they would have to be adopted by
the Commissioners if they were tc
become effective. but Assistant Cor
poration Counsel Vernon West re-
piled that the Commissioners had
delegated the board authority to
conduct the hearing.
John A. Bresnahan, representing
the Graphic Arts Association OF
Washington, protested that it would
be discrimination against the COM
mercial printer if liquor advertise
nents in circulars and handbills were
banned while newspapers could
carry them
William M. Kochenderfer, execu-
tive secretary of the Washington
Hotel Association, raised a question
whether the rules would require that
type, brand, amount of neutral spir-
its contained in the beverage and
other technical details concerning
the liquor must be printed on the
hotel menu cards. Mr.. West agreed
the language was somewhat vague
Sign Painters Object.
A spokesman for the sign painters
union opposed the regulations, de-
claring it would mean an increase of
unemployment among sign painters
Manuel Davis, representing the D. C
Exclusive Retail Liquor Dealers AS
sociation, voiced approval of one of
the restrictions on the type of adver-
tising, but objected to details of the
proposals limiting the size of signs
He asked number of questions
about the manner in which the Dis
trict would interpret and apply the
rule limiting to 10 square feet the
size Of any sign referring to the
liquor business.
The question also arose whether
the regulations would forbid the
present form of labels on liqueurs
which have some past association
with religious orders.
A. B. c. Board Chairman Thoma,
E. Lodge announced that any in
terested party could file written
argument up to August a. Some
District officials indicated the draft
OF the proposed rules would be re-
vised before being sent to the Com
missioners for action.
