Removal Of Garbage PIanI
Sought by Businessmen

Removal of the Districts garbage
disposal plant from New Jersey
avenue and H street Sc. has been
urged by Arthur j. Shaffer, vice
president of the Southeast Bussi-
nessmens Association, in a letter to
Chairman Randolph of the House
District Committee.
Mr.. Shaffer said the plant, which
Is less than seven blocks from the
Capitol, is IAN offense to the Ma
ton"
He said the association had con-
Quoted survey and suggested sew
eral areas in the tBuzzards Point
section, all bordering on the Ana
costa River. The availability o!
river transportation facilities would
greatly reduce the cost of operation,
of a garbage plant, he asserted.
The Commissioners and the Ma
tional Capital Park and Planning
Commission are opposing the relo-
cation and plans are under consid-
Grafton for construction of a new
plant on the same site.
Mr.. Shaffer pointed out that such
a move would eventually result in
loss of tax revenue to the District
because the retention of the present
plant in residential neighborhood
depreciates property values there.

Parks Commission
Starts Acquisition
OF Playground Sites
Will Seek Titles Now,
But Construction Must
Wait Until After War

Acquisition Of titles to properties
IN congeSted areas on which three
Fairgrounds will be constructed at
a total land cost Of $4,000, has
been started by the National Capital
Parks and Planning Commission
according to an announcement
made today by Norman c. Brown,
land purchasing officer for the
commission.
Mr., Brown said the funds for the
acquisition were made available
July / for the fiscal year 1945. Al
though actual construction on the
projects will not begin until after
the war, Mr.. Brown said it was
thought best to begin acquiring
titles to the properties now to be in
readiness when the time came to
start constr.rt3pn.
Two White, One Colored.
Two of the Fairgrounds will be
for white children and one for COL
ored. In original requests for the
appropriation, it was pointed out
there was high rate of delinquency
in the three areas selected for the
Fairgrounds.
The locations of the Fairgrounds
will be as follows:
/. Church street, between Six
teenth and Seventeenth streets
NV, with the entrance on Seven
teenth street. Only property touch
ing on Church street and a small
amount on Seventeenth street will
be acquired. In all, 20 properties
will be acquired, some of which will
be commercial.
2. Will be constructed in conjunc-
ton with the new Seaton Elemen-
tary School to be built at the corner
of Third and I streets NV, adjacent
to the site of the present Seaton
School, which will be torn down.
The playground will be located be-
tween H and I streets and Second
and Third streets NV; approxi-
mately nine properties to be ac-
quired.
One Near Cardoza High.
3. approximately one square in the
vicinity of Cardoza High School,
between Ninth and Tenth streets
and Rhode Island avenue and R
street NV. The playground will
take r and Tenth street frontage
and will reach into the interior of
the block to take in some alley
houses. The Phyllis Wheatley
YWCA, colored, in the same block
will not be disturbed, nor will land
frontages on Rhode Island avenue
and Ninth street.
Mr.. Brown pointed out that prop
erty owners in the areas will not be
disturbed in the immediate future
He said that actual construction
would depend on conditions, with
the principal factor being substitute
housing for those tenants who will
be forced to vacate.

Bridges Promises Aid
To Bill for Apprentice
Regulation in District
Will Seek EorIy Action
On Measure Backed
By Building Congress

Senator Bridges, Republican, of
New Hampshire announced today
he would seek early approval by the
Senate District Committee of a bill
sponsored by the Washington Build
ing Congress to establish a volun-
tary and regulated system of trades
apprenticeship in the District.
Support was given the measure at
brief hearing today before Senator
Bridges, as chairman Of a District
subcommittee, by Earl Shinn, coun-
sci for the Building Congress-, who
declared spokesmen for organized
labor, as well as contractors, favored
its enactment. Mr.. Shinn said any
apparent lack of interest in the bill
was due only to the fact that so
many of Washington's youth are in
war service. He stressed that the
need of training returning veterans
in the trades emphasized the i'm.
portance of the measure.
Mr.. Shinn declared there was
nothing new or experimental in its
provisions, since more than half of
the States have similar legislation.
The District, he said, now is oper-
ating under an obsolete law which
permits apprenticeship agreements,
but which contains no provisions for
control of such systems.
The measure would set I'D an ap-
premiership council, to be named by
the Commissioners, which would
work with the Labor Department
and the Board of Education in safe
guarding the rights of apprentices
and their employers during school,
ing at agreed graduated wage rates.
1t would apply to persons over is
Years of age who voluntarily agree
to take apprentice training. There
are provisions for appeals to the
council or to the courts in disputes
over agreements or their termina-
ton.

Sedifion Defendant
Placed at Stuttgart
Meeting by Ex-Consu
Schwinn Is Identified
As One Of Speakers at
Gathering Of Nozis
BY CARTER BROOKE JONES.

The Government fought to bring
out at the sedition trial today, over
constant defense objections, the part
German American bundists took in
an international convention held by
the Nazi foreign organization at
Stuttgart, Germany, in 1887.
Chief Justice Edward c. Eicher
allowed the District Court jury to
hear what Hugh H. Teller, former
American vice consul at Stuttgart,
remembered of an informal meet
ing to which he was invited at q
restaurant in the German city dur
ing the course of the convention.
Mr.. Teller identified defendant,
Herman Max Schwinn, naturalized
American, who was West Coast
bund leader. as one Of those who
spoke at the restaurant. Another
was named Kunze, the witness said.
The Government contends this
was Gerhard Wilhelm Kunze, for
mer national leader of the bund,
then deputy fuehrer, though Mr..
Teller did not identify this Ameri-
can-born defendant. Kunze since
has grown a brown beard.
Youth Addresses Meeting.
Mr.. Teller testified that q l5-
year-old youth, who said he was a
cadet in the bunds youth move
ment, addressed the gathering. He
said," the witness recalled, some
thing to the effect that he was car
rying the flag even though 1t cost
him his life"
Mr.. Teller did not know the
youths name.
Seeking to exclude this evidence,
Ira Chase Koehne, attorney for
three defendants, said he was
astounded the prosecutor should
bring in boy of Is, adding: He
might just as we'll bring in howl
ing infant"
The witness said film was shown
depicting German day picnic of
Los Angeles bundists.
Mr.. Teller identified a copy of a
report on the meeting he made to
the consul general at Stuttgart,
which, he said. was referred to the
American charge d'affaires at Ber-
lin.
Praised Nazi Achievements.
The witness said the substance of
the speeches by Schwinn and Kunze
was in praise of the Reich and the
achievements Of Nazi Germany.
And condemning the influence
OF the Jews in the United States" F."
Mr.. Teller added, land condemning
the Communists and Go"
The witness said the speeches
were interspersed with "sieg heils"
from the audience.
Mr.. Teller's testimony was pune
tuated by frequent clashes between
Chief Prosecutor o. John Rogge and
defense attorneys.
Vigorous and repeated protests
were made against allowing the wit
ness to read over q, portion of his
report to refresh his recollection.
But the court allowed this.
Several times Justice Eicher
pounded furiously for order as de-
fense counsel clamored simultane-
ously to get the floor.
