Sanitation Grading
OF D. T.. Restaurants
Proposed byM'Car

Washington restaurants would
be graded according to the
standards of sanitation they
maintain and their grade would
be shown on the menu under
terms of a bill introduced today
by Chairman McCarran of the
Senate District Committee.
The Nevada Senator said this new
code would provide for automatic
revocation of the license If a res
taurant fell below certain minimum
standards and failed within 30 days
to correct the shortcomings. The
maximum penalty for violation
would be increased from the pres
ent $500 to $1,000.
The Senator also introduced, at
the request of the Commissioners,
bill to permit the granting of bev-
erage licenses to service clubs of
other United Nations. The present
ABC law is not broad enough to
cover the service clubs of Allied
countries.
Statement Issued.
Referring to his new restaurant
code, Senator McCarran said:
While the proposed new code is
in many ways more strict than the
ordinances now in effect, 1 believe
it is fairer to restaurant operators.
1t provides specific rules governing
treatment of utensils, glasses, etc., in
such way as the question of COM
pliance or noncompliance can be
established readily. Under the pres
ent regulations, compliance fire.
quently is not wholly within the
control Of the proprietor. For in
stance, bacteria tests on a certain
date might show high count in a
certain restaurant in spite of the
fact that general sanitary condi-
tions were excellent. On the other
hand, restaurant might be lucky
enough to come through the test
with low count purely as a result
of chance, in spite of the fact that
general sanitary conditions were
poor"
The bill also provides for compul-
sorry health examination for en-
ployes. The Senator said he hopes
to get the bill through before the
next District appropriation bill is
taken up, SO that the increased re-
sponsibilities can be considered in
allotting funds to the health officer.
Third Bill introduced.
A third bill introduced by Senator
McCarran would amend the school
teachers retirement law to permit
teachers to leave for war work with
out jeopardizing their pension rights.
The present law for teachers does
not protect pension benefits of those
who are absent from duty for more
than two years.
This means, the Senator said, that
teachers who are away in the armed
forces longer than two years would
not have protection.
Meanwhile Chairman Randolph of
the House District Committee today
introduced bill to provide for the

Profit Of 1.43Cents
On Pentagon Fares
Cited by U. 5. Analyst

A Government transportation an
alyst declared this afternoon that
the Capital Transit Co. is making a
profit OF l43 cents on each passen-
ger carried to the Pentagon Build
ing. The shuttle service supplied by
the company across Memorial Bridge
costs each War Department employe
s cents one way.
Called by the War and Navy De-
partments as rebuttal witness,
James F. Dickson told the Inter-
state Commerce Commission hear
ing on trans Potomac bus rates that
study he had made of the COM
pany's Pentagon operations showed
the cost passenger for each trip
was 3.57 cents
Few Protest Fares.
Counsel for the War and Navy
Departments earlier admitted that
results of survey conducted among
personnel of the Pentagon and the
Army Air Forces Annex in nearby
Virginia showed IAN insignificant"
number complaining about excessive
fares charged for transportat ton to
and from their work.
The admission came from Col. E..
M Barron, chief counsel represent
ing the two Government depart
ments.
At the insistence of counsel for
the four transit companies involved
in the rate case, the Army officers
agreed to stipulate that some $4,000
missionaries returned by employees
showed fewer than / per cent con-
cerned with high fares-which the
Government is seeking to have re-
duced.
Attorneys for the companies
spent several hours this morning ex-
amining the questionnaires which
were brought to the hearing room in
the ICC Building in large metal
filing cabinets.
Franklin K. Lane, jr., president of
the Arlington & Fairfax Motor
Transportation Co., first brought up
the question, asking Col Barron if
he would agree that majority of
returns showed employees were sat-
isfled with the service Col. Barron
replied he would be willing to stipu-
late that point.
1t. E. A. Matthews, who has been
representing the Navy Department,
pointed out to ICC Examiner H. G.
Mattingly that the survey did not
ask for specific information on fares
because we were already convinced
that the fares were too high"
E. Barrett Prettyman, counsel for
the Capital Transit Co.. said the
Government had put much stress"
on reports of dissatisfaction with
the bus service serving Government
buildings in Arlington.
Early End of Hearing Expected.
Robert E. Quirk. counsel for the
Alexandria, Bancroft g. Washington
Transit Co.. commented that from
our judgment, employees appear to
have little concern about fares"
There was possibility that the
inquiry would close late today or
tomorrow, and the mass of testi-
mony and 100 exhibits presented by
both sides given to the full COM
mission for consideration. this week.
Mr.. Lane implied during yester-
days hearing that the War Depart
ment had blocked adoption of the
Blanding report, which recommend
ed at l31s-cent fare to the Pentagon
The implication came when Mr..
Lane asked Maj. Paul L. Ristroph,
transportation expert for the Army,
If its adoption would not have re-
suited in an equalization of fares,
had 1t been allowed to become ef-
fective'' by the War Department.

The shows are put on under the
