Ah-Night Parking Ban
Advocated by Hebert
AT Traffic Hearing
Kelly Backs Regulation
As Police Aid; Off-Street
Auto Program Drown
By JAMES E. CHINN.

A ban on all-night parking on
Washington streets was suggested
today by Representative Hebert.
Democrat, of Louisiana, not so much
as a palliative for traffic congestion,
but as an aid to the Police Depart
ment in its crime prevention ac-
tivities.
The proposal was made during a
hearing before a House District Sub
committee on a bill authorizing the
Commissioners to establish munic-
ipally owned off street parking facil-
tiles on the fringe of the downtown
business area. Mr.. Hebert had the
chair in the absence of Chairman
Schultz.
The idea was actually inspired by
Maj. Edward J. Kelly, acting super
intendent of police, who told the
subcommittee he did not know of
anything more detrimental to the
work of patrolman on a beat" than
cars parked at the curb, especially
during the night, when house
breakers. thieves and other types Of
criminals hide behind or under them
to escape the eye of an officer.
To Consult Keech.
II am going to find out from Cor
poration Counsel Keech what steps
should be taken to eliminate all
night parking" declared Mr.. Hebert.
Il realize, however, that it will not
be possible to stop all-night parking
in some sections in the immediate
future because of the lack of ga
RACES, but an all-night parking ban
must come eventually.
THE people of Washington, as
far as parking is concerned, are verw
sick patients and it will take a long
time to make them we'll. Something
should have been done for them 10
years ago"
Mr.. Hebert also served notice on
Engineer Commissioner Kutz that
unless the Zoning Commission, of
which he is chairman, acts within a
reasonable time" in requiring con-
struction of all new buildings to pro-
vide garage facilities for tenants he
will sponsor legislation to make such
a requirement mandatory.
The proposal for garages in new
buildings was first mad during the
hearing yesterday by Subcommittee
Chairman Schultz, and Commits

New Ceiling.
Q. My ceiling has been destroyed
by fire. I would like to cover it with
something besides plaster or plaster
board. What do you suggest?
A. Insulating board is available in
the form of panels for a ceiling fin
ish. One make is colored white and
does not require finish. Inquire at
a lumber yard. These panels can be
nailed to the framework of the old
ceiling.
Peeling Paint.
One correspondent writes that:
Outside paint on my house has be-
gun to peel off" and another that
paint in her living room keeps
chipping off. The most probable
reason for both cases is moisture in
the walls. In outside walls, trouble
is usually from leakage through the
joints between the window frames
and the outside walls. This may
affect paint on inside walls and
ceilings as we'll. Closing the joints
with caulking compound, to be put
in with a caulking gun, will usually
end the trouble. although the owner
should make sure that there are
no leaks elsewhere. A third cor
respondent finds that paint on

White Paint Problem
And Some Solutions

With all the white paints shown
you by the paint dealer you begin
to wonder If there isn't some truth
in the old adage, Can you tell
black from white2" What with off,
white" oyster white, dead white,
cream white and numerous other
varieties, you could hardly be
blamed for remarking that you
would rather take purple.
But there really is white paint
and Furthermore there is paint that
stays white-and that is the point
you really want to impress on your
dealer. If you want white paint for
your kitchen or bathroom and you
want it to be white a year from
now, be sure to pay the little bit
extra and get the paint that stays
white. Otherwise you will find that
your white paint has greyed or
creamed in spite of all you may do.
But maybe you don't really want
white. Maybe you want something
that looks white. Oyster white is
much whittier against a grey or green
wall than dead white. Off-white
with blush cast will be doubly
white against a rose-patterned
paper. So it will be necessary to tell

ceiling continues to peel after re-
painting. The trouble started from
leaks in the roof. But these, she
says, have been repaired. As the
same spots continue to peel, it is
evident that the roof leaks were not
thoroughly stopped, and peeling will
keep on until the roof leaks are
located and closed.
