Fight on GreenbeIt
Rents 10 Be Pushed

Refusal of the Greenbelt Town
Council to contribute funds to the
fight against rent increases in the
town will not affect the Rent Pro.
test Committees plans to institute
court action against the rent boosts
that became effective last month,
Martin Miller, chairman of the COM
mittee, declared today.
The Councils action was taken
after John S. White, Colmar Manor
attorney and House of Delegates ma
jority leader, had ruled that mu-
nicipal corporations have no author
ity to contribute or lend funds to a
private group of citizens. even
though the benefits received may
eventually serve some public pur-
pose.
The Rent Protest Committee last
month employed Baltimore legal
firm in an effort to obtain an in
junction against the rent increases,
which were authorized by the Fed
eral Public Housing Authority. Mr.
Miller said he expected to have def
mite news concerning this action
within few days.
Declaring 5000 OF the $500
needed to pay legal fees has been
raised, Mr.. Miller appealed to resi-
dents to contribute the remaining
$500 as soon as possible.
I'VE have a good chance to win
this battle if We get the co-opera-
ton of every one," Mr.. Miller as
serted.

June War Bond Sales
Here Exceed Quota

For the seventh consecutive month
since quotas for Series E War bond
sales were established by the Treas
ury. the District went over the top
in June with a Total of $8,313,862 in
Series E bonds sold, H. L. Rust, jr..
chairman of the District War
Finance Committee, reported today
Sales for the month represented
l08 per cent of the quota of s7.700,-
900 set by the Treasury.
Sales of Series E bonds throughout
the Nation in June totaled s696.253.-
900, or 928 per cent of the quota of
$3.50 100000
June sales results are most
gratifying to the District commit
tee Mr.. Rust stated. particularly
IN view of the facts that the second
income tax collection was made
during that month. and that there
was much lack of understanding
relative to the new withholding tax.
We are confident that the people OF
Washington share our satisfaction
in the continuance of the city's
splendid record. We congratulate
them and we extend our apprecia-
ton to the hundreds of volunteer
workers who aided the committee
last month.
I'm reaching future quotas, one
essential will be to impress upon the
public that the current, new tax
is in no sense an additional levy
but is merely an easy and conven-
lent way of meeting on a pay-as-
you-go plan. income taxes previous
ly levied. We are stepping up our
efforts in order to keep bond sales
during the summer months at a
high level and we are emphasizing
that while the withholding tax
amounts to less than 10 per cent
in most income brackets, sale OF
War bonds must reach greater VOL
ume in order to avert the levying OF
higher taxes to draw back into the
Treasury from our expended in
comes, the amount necessary TO
block serious imitation"

District Faces
Egg Scarcity;
Price Raised
Supplies in Stores
Shrinking Steadily,
Survey DiscIoses

Eggs. though still obtainable in
virtually all stores. gradually are
becoming more scarce here, a sur
vey of wholesale distributors and
retail establishments indicated to-
day.
Meanwhile, the scarcity was re-
hected in the announcement of the
second of a series of weekly boosts
in the ceiling price Of eggs The
District Once of Price Administra-
ton said ceilings on grade A eggs
will be lifted l cent effective tomor-
row in all except the small lnde-
pendent stores which did a business
last year OF less than $50,000.
These small independents will be
permitted a 2-cent increase in their
prices for grade A eggs. the OPA
said. Maximum prices on all other
grades of eggs will remain un-
changed for all stores.
Seasonal Decline.
Caused by the seasonal decline
in egg production, the ceiling price
boosts will continue at the rate OF
about cent weekly until the first
week in November, when prices
again will decline, the District OPA
said
The seasonal drop in production
has had much to do with the in
creasing scarcity of eggs here, deal
ers said today. But this year the
shortage of eggs on the Washington
market Is more severe than pre-
yiously.
Inc manager Of co-opera tive
marketing company estimated that
he is now handling from 80 to 40
per cent fewer eggs than a month
ago. This Is more than the normal
seasonal decline, he said.
Shortages in Chain Stores.
Shortages also we're reported by
several chain grocery stores. One
large chain said it has been able
to keep most of its stores supplied
with some eggs. but has been un-
able to deliver as many eggs as the
stores have requested.
Supplies are especially short this
year on the Washington market
because of an unfavorable price
situation, one distributor suggested
Many farmers in this area are
shipping their eggs to New York
where distributors will buy them as
assorted eggs, on which there Is
no price ceiling" he said. He added
that local dealers are restricted to
paying lower prices because most OF
them buy eggs graded" instead of
assorted.
Midwestern eggs, which In previ-
Gus years have been sold here in
large numbers to supplement the
local supply during the off season,
are not coming into Washington
markets in large quantities this
summer. the survey disclosed. A
wholesaler explained that many
Midwestern farmers are selling their
eggs to the Government, which will
pay almost as much at the point of
production as local dealers can
AFFORD to pay after the eggs have
been shipped here.

And Supported

hearing today before subcommittee
of the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Henry I. Quinn, for 80 years a
practicing attorney here and presi-
dent of the District Bar Association

flrmation on the ground he had not
actively engaged in law practice in
District courts. and that the NOM
inee's predecessor as administrative
assistant to the Attorney General
was a layman and former news
paperman.
Supporting the protest was Ward
B. Mccarthy, attorney, who held
the nominee did not meet the terms
of the Municipal Court Reorganiza-
ton Act requiring five years prsc-
tice here as prerequisite to ap-
pointment to the local bench. A
third protestant, Huver I. Brown.
colored. held that the nominee was

elimination" If the nominee is con-
firmed by the Senate.

were Robert I. Miller, attorney. who
also advocated reappointment Of

ander Holtzoff, special assistant to
the Attorney General.
Asked by Senator Van Nuys. Ju-
dietary Committee chairman. who
came in late. If he believed the
nominee, Mr.. Quinn. would make a
good judge. Henry I. Quinn replied:
Yes, after a few years. adding
| that he knew the nominee to be a
man Of the highest integrity.
Mr.. Holtzof said practice in Fed
ersl departments, rather than ac-
tual appearances in court, meets the
| five-year requirement..

tions asked by Senator Mcfarland.

believed himself to be qualified.
Nothing Personal in Opposition.
Henry I. Quinn said that when
the nominee was admitted last year
to full membership in the District
Bar Association, both the letter and
spirit of the associations estab-
lished policy was violated" There
was nothing personal in his stand.
Mr.. Quinn said, but he added. Il am
