tical operation, however, proposed
regulations are drafted by the board
or the corporation counsel at its be-
hest and submitted to the Commits
sioners for PRONUNCIATION in due
form or rejection.
There Is now and has been pend
ing before the Commissioners for
some months set of important dis
play sign and advertising handbill
regulations which, it is generally
felt, have been pigeonholed. The
interesting aspect about this Is that
these regulations, If adopted. would
go far toward quieting the loud pub
lie outcry against "blatantly and
f1agrantly" advertised liquor stores.
The only sign regulations affecting
liquor, aside from prices, are the
general District of Columbia sign
regulations. Signs Constitute an i'm
portant feature of A. B. G. regula-
ton in many Jurisdictions.
Policy ON Drunkards.
There Is no provision in the law
giving relatives the right to pre-
vent licensees from selling or fur
nishing liquor to habitual drunk
ards. The A. B. c. Board, as a pol
icy, warns retailers against such
sales upon complaint.
The forehandedness of the indus
try is vividly demonstrated by Sec
ton "a, which repealed "all laws
which prohibit the sale of alcoholic
beverages in certain defined sections
or parts Of the District of Colum-
bia."
The result was to wipe out long
standing restrictions against the
sale Of alcoholic beverages within
1000 feet of the Navy Yard and
the Marine Barracks, within a Ger
tain area around st. Elizabeth's
Hospital, as well as within a mile
of Soldiers Home in all directions.
The Chevy Chase and Takoma Park
sections and a very considerable
area lying, roughly, west of Rock
Greek and Piney Branch were like
wise restricted. Singularly enough,
the Takoma-Petworth areas, orig
inally restricted, have become the
''bloodiest" battle-ground in the hard
fighting over the licensing Of OUT
lets in those areas.

Rentals Average
S14Here for Low-Cosi
Housing Projects
Monthly Figure Omits
Charges for Utilities;
|. New York's 1854 Is Top

Some idea Of the intended rent
levels for public low-rent housing in
Washington may be obtained by the
announcement Of the United States
Housing Authority today that aver
age monthly shelter rentals of $14.08
per dwelling have been established
for the 1892 homes in the first 2s
projects opened for occupancy
throughout the country.
Monthly shelter rents+which omit
the cost of utilities-average as low
as $3.50 for q complete home In some
projects in the South to top of
1864 for a dwelling in New York
City. With payments for water,
electricity, gas and heat added. the
average low was said to be $1098
with $22.64 as the top New York
average.
While no attempt has been made
to determine the rents for the vari-
Gus Washington projects, two Of
which are now under construction,
it was generally conceded that they
will compare with those charged in
other cities this size. Nothing will
be done about fixing the rent levels
until all the elements Of construction
costs have been figured.
Estimated incomes Of families to
be rehoused in all U. S. H. A. prof.
ects completed 50 far average $832
q year. it was said, or slightly less
than $40 q month. The lowest aver
age family income is $498 per year,
while the highest is $1,000. These
incomes do not include those of ten
ants occupying the earlier projects
built by the former housing division
Of the Public Works Administration,
which are on . considerably higher
level. t..

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, March 4.-Discon-
tinuance of the Burtonsville busline,
which operates between the District
line on Georgia avenue and Bur-
louisville, and discontinuance of
portions Of three other lines, is
planned by the Capital Transit Co.,
which has filed its requests with
the Maryland Public Service Com
mission.
The other routes the company
desires to eliminate are part of the
East Silver Spring line between
Sligo and Flower avenues and Cliff
ton Park, a one-way distance of 09
mile; that portion of the Takoma
busline operating through Sligo
Valley and that part of the Takoma
line which operates through the
sanitarium grounds between Carroll
and Flower avenues in Takoma.
In each instance, according to
letters filed with the commission
by E. D. Merrill, president of the
company, it is indicated that pat
ronage does not justify operation
Of the service. The company pro-
poses to discontinue the service on
April l and the commission was
told that the required notices will
be posted on or before March 81.
The results of checks made on the
lines were embodied in Mr.. Mer-
rill's letters.
Says Area Is Rural.
The president of the company
told the commission that the Bur-
louisville line operates over the route
of the -Four Corners line as far as
-Four Corners, which is the end of
the existing suburban population.
"The route beyond that point" he
said, "traverses a predominantly
rural area not requiring or justify
ing public transportation. This
proposal contemplates no discon-
tinuance of service in the suburban
area as far as Four Corners, but
schedule adjustments of the Four
Corners line may be necessary to
continue adequate and convenient
service"
In connection with the East Sill
yer Spring line Mr.. Merrill told the
commission that it now has before
it the proposal to extend the service
Of that line northward along Flower
avenue between Blair road and
Flower avenue and Flower and
Franklin avenues.
Hospital Manager Objects.
At the same time the commission
received the transit company's re-
quest to discontinue this service II
received q letter from j. H. Mes
manager Of Washington Sanitariun
and Hospital. expressing regret thai
the company intends to make the
change.
1T has been a great accommoda
ton for the guests and patients oi

there is no added expense to thu

private grounds and then back Out

fore feel that this service should
not be discontinued"
Mr.. Merrill said that while the
company regrets the necessity TO,
the changes. they are in conformity
with policy to continue reasonable
service to the greatest number ir
the Maryland suburban territory
In asking that the changes be made
effective on April l, he pointed ou1
that this date begins the new Mary
land tax year for buses.
