ing for 10 am. tomorrow.
Mr.. Hankin's tenure of Office as
chairman was stormy. He was first
nominated to the commission by
President Roosevelt on March 3
1941. 1t was not until the follow
ing October that the Senate sub
committee, before which the nomi-
nation had been placed, took favor
able action.
Quizzed BY Committee.
The committee called Mr. Hankin
as a witness, to quiz him on his at
tltude toward communism. He was
born In Russia and came to this
country at the age of 13. After
hearing Mr.. Hankin declare that he
not only had no sympathy toward
Communism, but was opposed to it,
members of the committee praised
him and recommended conflrma-
ton.
He was sworn into Office on No
vember 8, l94l. Friction between
Mr.. Hankin and others in the Dis
trict government began to develop
almost at once.
On January 8, Mr.. Hankin made
a speech before citizens group in
which he charged that he was be-
ing hampered in his work by the
District Commissioners. He said
that he had been given inadequate
of77ce snare and CHARGED the Com
missioners were delaying establish
ment of cross-town bus service.
Attacked Commissioner Kutz.
Three months later. Mr. Hankin
again made an attack before
forum meeting, aimed at Commis-
sioner Kutz. He charged the latter
with favoring utility interests. Mr.
Hankin later apologized to the Com
missioner.
Mr.. Hankin several times has be-
come embroiled In controversies at
public hearings. One of the storm
lest OF these sessions was at a hear
ing on a proposed new system OF
taxicab zone charges which Mr.
Hankin had drawn up. The Ham
kin plan subsequently was aban-
doned.
Lately, Mr.. Rankin had quarreled
again with others members of the
Commission over the gas rate hear
ing. 1t was this issue which Com
missioner Kutz referred to by impli-
cation. when he mentioned pend
