First Municipal Court
Report Sets Income
AT Four Times Cost

The first annual report of the
Municipal Court released yesterday
showed court revenue collected dur
ing the past fiscal year to be nearly
Tour times the operating cost.
During the fiscal year July |. 1912.
to June 30. 1943, the cash income of
the court from fees. fines and for
FIXTURES was sl,0l6 ,0l0.40. The court S
total budget appropriation during
the period was s286,O52.
During the same period 1894
new civil and criminal cases were
filed, at an average rate of 1l.I5l
cases per month. Despite the large
number OF cases, the report written
by Chief Judge George p. Barse
stated the current court work is up
to date in each of its eight branches.
The interchange and rotation of
the judges Of the court between
the civil and criminal divisions. and
among the eight branches of the
court has been demonstrated as con-
stltuting sound, workable and
flexible method of more evenly dis
trlbuting the judicial functions of
the court Judge Barse stated.
Special attention was called to
the progress made in reducing the
backlog of pending criminal jury
cases. When the new Municipal
Court opened in July. 1912. after
the old court and Police Court had
been merged under an act of Con-
gress, there were 889 jury cases
pending. On June 80, l943. the num-
Der had been reduced to 1913.
Judge Barse lauded the fine CO.
operation given the court by the
United States Attorneys Office and
the Corporation Counsel's office as
an important factor in the court s
fine record He also praised the
associate judges for their "energetic,
tireless work in cleaning up the
cases on the docket"

100 by 700 Foot Wall
OF Wafer 10 Curtain
Tidal Basin Today

A curtain of water extending 100
feet in the air and spreading 700
feet along the Tidal Basin NAV be
viewed at 2 pm. today when
civilian defense auxiliary flremen
OF the Metropolitan Area Signalize
the opening of Fire Prevention
Week
Battalion Chief C. S. Peterson Of
the District Fire Department pre-
dicted the demonstration will pro-
duce the biggest water curtain"
ever raised. In fact, he was so sure
that he issued a challenge to any
auxiliary fire force in the entire
Nation to try to beat the record.
Will Eclipse Detroit.
The present record for auxiliary
bumpers is held by Detroit, which
produced "a simultaneous streams
from 64 bumpers" he added we
will utilize 81 bumpers throwing
two streams each.
1T will be a sight never to be
forgotten and will afford assurance
Of the preparedness of the District
civilian defense auxiliary fire serv-
ice.
1t was estimated that such bat
terry of apparatus would throw water
at the rate Of about $4,000 gallons
or 200 tons per minute officials
hastened to add that the water
would be taken from the Tidal
Basin and therefore would not place
any burden on the District water
system.
Auxiliary Demonstration.
Water curtains of such size are
used when large sections of an
urban community are afre to keep
the blaze from spreading to other
areas Chief Peterson said. Aside
from the spectacular water curtain.
he added, 500 civilian defense
auxiliary flremen will demonstrate
emergency handling of hose, show
ing various methods of coupling
and relaying to reach agrations
at distance from source of
water
Wv NAlldiI DtifiISc DIieClOT II. Y.
Whitehurst said: Fire defense,
while always important. has taken
on a much deeper significance since
we are so thoroughly engaged in
war. The home front is being
strained to its utmost to supply
materials without which our fight
ing fronts would become impotent.
Every fire contributes Just that
much to the hindrance OF our war
efforts. Carelessness as to fire pre-
vention is an aid to the enemy and
makes any one guilty of it an un-
conscious saboteur"
For the past fiscal year, the Dis
trict's fire loss was s69l ,995. which is
a cost Of 70 cents per capita.

During the vacation months lust
past, the war salvage program was
held IN abeyance, so far as the
schools and parent teacher asso-
Citations are concerned, for obvious
reasons. But now that school Is
again in full swing and the parent
teacher activities have been re-
Sumed, salvage once more is assum-
Ing an important place.
We have been informed by the
d. c. Salvage Committee that old
newspapers, magazines. paper car
tons and heavy paper boxes are
badly needed, along with other
items OF salvage, including metals
and rubber, A plan has been set
up by Horace Walker, executive
secretary CT the D. C. committee,
whereby the city is divided into
number of areas. Local parent
teacher groups have agreed to
sponsor number of such, and
money paid for salvage collected
Will be added to the funds in their
treasures. Among the associations
that have assumed this responsible
lty are Congress Heights, Barnard,

captains under her, or him, as there
are depots set up. They are cncour-
aged to solicit the schools for CO.
operation Of the children, who will
be block leaders and who will
canvass their neighborhoods, in
forming residents OF certain days
when they will call for salvage and
see that it is taken to the depots.
When depot is filled the captain
will notify the major, who will in
turn notify Mr.. Walker and it will
be collected, the amount of money
earned credited TO the sponsoring
group and within a reasonable
length of time checks will be mailed
