Commissioner Kutz
Favors Erection Of
New Home for Aged
Problem to Be Discussed
With Welfare Boord
Tomorrow Morning

Engineer Commissioner Charles
w. Kutz yesterday voiced belief the
District should proceed with plans
to erect an entirely new Home for
Aged and Lnfirm instead of adopting
tine suggested alternative of aban-
Goning the institution as such and
finding other places for its wards.
His statement came as arrange
ments were made for full review of
the whole problem at a conference
at 1890 am. tomorrow between the
Commissioners and members of the
Board of Public Welfare and their
advisers.
Distric. Budget Director Walter
L. Fowler and Welfare Director
Conrad H. Van Hyning had sug-
gested that from both financial and
social work viewpoints it might be
better to abandon plans for a new
'poorhouSe" for the needy aged and
to place the chronicallv i'll in a
hospital for incurables, to use the
social security program for financ-
ing the care of the bodied in
their own residences and to place
others in licensed and regulated
bording homes.
Gen. Kutz agreed that some
patients should be placed in a
municipal hospital and that some
of the aged at the present Home
for Aged might better be housed
with their own families, under Dis
trict financing, but that to farm
out" others in boarding homes raises
fears that the commercial home
operator might cheat at the expense
of the helpless aged. unless the Dis
trict could and would provide g very
thorough and constant check
through employment of an adequate
ard sufficient. number of social
workers.
1t is believed similar views are
held by Commissioner Guy Mason.

zoning Commission
Meets Tomorrow On
Two New Proposals
Apartment Garages
And Roomine House
Rules to Be Studied

Members of the District Zoning
Commission are to meet in special
session at 2 pm. tomorrow to chart
their course on two pending pro-
posals, one to require garage fa-
cillties in new apartments and
other projects and the other to per-
NIT, during the emergency, opera
ton of rooming houses in restricted
residential areas.
Corporation Counsel Richmond B.
Keech and his principal assistant,
Vernon L. West. have advised that
legislation would be needed to re-
quire garage space in apartments
and other structures for human oc-
cupancy, and that it would be bet
ter to seek legislation for a waiver
of zoning rules as to rooming houses
than to adopt regulation to cover
the emergency.
Members of the commission also
have received the views of John
Nolen. ir.. director of planning for
the National Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission. and of zoning
consultants. Some hold the opinion
legislation would not be needed to
cover either of the proposals.
Some District officials favor adop-
ton of ban on all-day and all
night parking. to become effective in
a~year or two years, to foster de-
velopment of off f-street parking IA
cilities. aside from those in new
apartments and private dwellings,
under the general objective of re-
lieving traffic congestion. Further,
they said, a requirement for off,
street garage or parking facilities
should be applied generally and not
only to certain classes of property
owners
Prompt action has been urged
on the proposed waiver. of zoning
restrictions against rooming houses
in restricted residential zones be-
cause of the housing shortage and
because action has been deferred

Although the primary purpose OF
the denominations is to provide
survey material, it was believed
likely that registrants found at this
time to be in Glass Ia condition will
be reported to their boards for re-

1t was said that the new move
does not imply any change in classi-
fication, but officials were under

possibilities presented by the re-

From 20 to 80 men are being

 The Clowns, known the world over for their combination of good clean baseball and a novelty show, con- tinue to pack in the crowds in every cvity they play in and they play in all principal cities in every state in the union. Only last week up in Albany, N. F., the Clowns played to a capacity crowd of well over 10000 people and lived up to ad- vance regulations as they scored three runs in the last inning to walk of with an 6-7 decision over the Albany Stars. Tonight the Clowns will show the greatest clown out side of Al Schact himself in Jcs Molet, the famous clown and col1a- dian ball player. =
 Molet is one-nlan circus in him. self as he performs several amusing tricks before game time but once the game gets under way, he as veil as the rest of the team forget the clowning and get down to business and play ball. Molet is g great field ing shortstop and it Is only his light hitting that is keeping him out of the mfajor leagues. Besides Molet, the Clowns have Bananas Murphy, a ball murdering fly chaser who hits 'em a country mile. Buck Newsome, Joe King, Pete Ross and many others. The Clowns play in regular clown suits and have their faces all painted up with different designs. The uniforms are of the 6Ashiest. type imaginable, with an inter- mingNng of scarlet red and navy blue and cause quite a comnlotion among the fans when they take the field. <. e-s7zz 5s f EIAaday t0 Catch "A -s
