WA Seeks 10 Post
Deposit on Property
Chosen for Hospital

Pending q decision in court over
the Governments attempt to con-
denim q square at Washington Circle
for new 400-bed George Wash
ington University Hospital, the
Federal Works Agency is making
an effort to deposit with the court
an amount estimated to be the price
at which the property would be
condemned.
This was disclosed by Robert X
Macleod, Department of Justice
Attorney, during hearings yesterday
before District Court Justice Jesse
C. Adkins on all points of law in
volved in the controversy. Occu-
pants Of the block have been given
until December / to get out. The
money may be deposited by then.
The jurist is to receive by Mon
day from Roger J. Whiteford, coun-
sci for st. Pauls Protestant Epis-
copal Church, q memorandum out
lining further the church's objec-
ton to certain procedure by which
the Government is attempting to
condemn the church, at GIT
Twenty third street NV, and other
property there under the Lanham
Act. The church and several prop
erty owners are trying to block the
condemnation.
Mr.. Whiteford contended the De-
partment of Justice had failed to
fulfill provisions of the Lanham
Act, the constitutionality Of which
he challenged In the case.
Mr.. Mcleod contended all the
acts under which the government
Is proceeding, including the Lam
ham Act, both national and local,
and the Second War Powers Act
are constitutional Argument over
the case continued throughout the
entire day before Justice Adkins.
Other counsel appearing for prop
erty owners in the block included !:
Arthur G. Lambert, Charles L.
Norris, Herman Miller and Brooks
T. Saunders.
The Government meantime is
pushing forward appraisal of prop
erty in the block, so 1t will be ready
to flle "a declaration of taking" In
court, when the title would pass to
the Government. The Government
may move machinery into the block
soon to make test borings.

Street Snapshot
Ban Studied
BYDisfirict
Moy Ask Legislation
TO Give Control
Over photographers

The Commissioners today In
strilcted Corporation Counsel Rich
nond B. Keech to prepare 1 draft
of legislation banning commercial
snapshot street photography.
Mr.. Keech said 1t was his UNDER
standing that the legislation, once
drafted, would be considered BY the
Commissioners for . final deter
mination about sending 1t to Con-
greSs.
Congress Holds Authority.
The question of banning the type
OF photographers who stand in the
downtown areas and snap pedes-
trians was submitted to Mr.. Keech
several weeks ago. He informed the
Commissioners today that they did
not have the power, under several
court decisions, to ban such .photoe-
raphy and that the power to pro-
hibit the snapshot photography
would be up to Congress.
Mr.. Keech also ruled that pho
tographers could not be prohibited
from congested areas because they
were not vendors. They are now op-
Grating under = Licensing Act OF
1882.
Problems Faced.
1t Is understood that one Of the
problems faced in drafting the leg
islation Is to protect press photoe-
raphers and movie cameramen. The
move to ban snapshot cameramen
came after number of protests had
been made against them to the Bet
ter Business Bureau, the district at
torney's ONCE, the Post Once De-
partment and the superintendent of
licenses for the District.
Charges against these photog-
raphers range from claims OF not
receiving pictures paid for to re-
reiving wrong or badly blurred pic
tures.

Inspectors 10 Reject Cars
With Oily Brake Tubings

Trafic Director william A. Van
Duzer today directed the Districts
two inspection stations to reject all
automobiles found with oil on the
outside Of the rubber tubing leading
from the auto frame to the wheel
cylinder.
Omcials have become alarmed. he
said, over recent instances of brake
failures because OF rotted rubber
tubing.
Tests Of sample brake fluids by
the Bureau Of Standards showed
the fluids met specifications, Mr..
Van Duzer said. However, the the
ory was advanced that some garage
men are renewing brake fluids from
containers which formerly held oil
and that this was causing an inte-
rior deterioration of the rubber
tubings. They also said oil drippings
from master cylinders probably were
affecting the outside Of tubes.

LONDON, July Evacuation of Greater London is a more serious problem now than during the 1941 blitz.
 The seriousness. of the situation has developed due to finding refuge from robot bombs.

 Today's morning newspapers charge that profiteering is prevalent in several districts.
