Court 10 Pronounce
Sentence Monday
On Carmen Beach

Municipal Court Judge Almond
w. Scott will pronounce sentence at
/ 80 pm. Monday on Carmen Beach
and two other women found guilty
late yesterday on vagrancy charges.
The Beach woman and the other
two defendants, Judy Hunt, 81, and
Mary Karikas, "a, were arrested in
a police raid on massage parlor"
in the 1700 block of Pennsylvania
avenue NV. on July 13. A fourth
woman, Deloris Nieto, arrested in
the raid, was acquitted of vagrancy
IN previous trial. Charges are still
pending against Margaret Locke,
reputed operator of the establish
ment.
Carman and Judy were acquitted
of one count of the vagrancy charge
that they had no lawful means Of
support. Judge Scott, however.
found them guilty of the second
count-frequenting house of Ill
repute.
The Karikas woman was found
guilty on both counts Her attor-
ney, T. Emmett Mckenzie, disputed
ruling by Judge Scott in the early
part of yesterdays session and an
nounced that as far as he and his
client were concerned they would
make no more defense in the case
and would take the necessary steps
for appeal :
Mr.. Mckenzie had asked Judge
Scott to disqualify himself, charging
| that the jurist had already ex-
pressed the belief earlier that mis-
demeanor was being committed
when police raided the establish
ment.
Consequently his client did not
take the stand in her defense. Car
men testified that she has received
regular allotments from her hus-
band who is in the Navy. The
Hunt woman said she was living on
a $4,000 settlement obtained last
year from the Capital Transit Co. as
a result of an injury she received in
an accident

Joint Board Approves
2-MiIIion Underpass
For Dupont Circle

The Joint Board of Commissioners
and the Public Utilities Commission
announced late yesterday final ap-
proval of plans for the long-talked
about 81 ,0O0. 900 underpass at Dupont
Circle.
Work OF removing and relocating
water, sewer and gas pipes. and
electric and telegraph wires will
start about the first of the year, ac-
cording to Highway Department en-
gineers.
Starting of construction Of the
Connecticut avenue underpass will
depend on the beginning of the
Federal Aid program. Acting En-
gineer Commissioner Joseph D. Ar
thur, jr., said the House already
has approved $500, 100000 for the
first year of the program for aid to
the States and the District and that
the Senate is expected to act shortly.
The District Is to receive even
tually for the project, 81 ,000, 900 from
the Federal Government, which will
take an estimated IS months once
actual construction work begins.
The adopted Dupont Circle plan is
modification of the one recon-
mended last year in the transpor.
tation survey of J. E. Greiner Co.
and De Leuw. Gather & Co., and
was worked out in consultation with
the Capital Transit Co., National
Capital Parks office, National Capt.
tai Park and Planning Commission
Two Inside Tunnels Planned.
The plan provides for two inside
tunnels Of two-lanes each for north
and southbound vehicular traffic.
Tunnels for the north and south
bound streetcars will be on the out
side of the vehicular lanes. with a
mezzanine over the tunnels under
part of the circle.
In order to preserve the park at
Dupont Circle, no entrances will be
provided in the circle itself, the
entrances being placed on the streets
across from the circle. There will
be four ramps with one on each
side between Massachusetts, avenue
and P street NV, and one on each
side at Nineteenth street NV Alto
gether, there will be eight en-
frances to the four ramps, thus
making it unnecessary for persons
to cross Massachusetts, avenue or
P street to enter the ramps.
Streetcars will come in or out at
N and S street, while vehicular traf-
fic will run underground for a
shorter distance so that both types
Of traffic will not come out at the
same places. Plans for handling
the surface traffic have not been
completed.
Study Use Of Escalators.
Engineers are now studying the
feasibility of having escalatols from
the mezzanine level to the streetcar
platforms. which are to be 200 feet
long. If escalators are used, it will
avoid 26 steps 1t would require 20
steps to go from the street to tine
ramps
The tunnel part for the streetcars
will be 1875 feet loLg, while the
distance between where the street.
cars start to 60 down and come up
will be $500 feet.
Meanwhile, the Senate Post Office
and Postroads Committee is sched-
uled to meet Monday to speed
action on the House passed resolu-
ton authorizing immediate begin

Presidents S Support
Spurs Drive by Bi|bo
For Stadium Funds

Inspired by White House an
nouncement that President Truman
favors erection of a national sta
dium in Washington, Senator Bilbo,
Democrat. Of Mississippi, today re-
newed the drive for funds which will
enable the Stadium Commission to
prepare detailed plans for the
project.
Shortly after the Presidents views
on the stadium project were made
public yesterday, Senator Bilbo con-
ferred with Maj. Gen. Philip B.
Fleming, Federal Works admins
traitor, whose agency holds funds
necessary for preparing the plans.
Following this conference Senator
Bilbo told The Star that Gen.
Fleming has said $15o,O00-the
amount called for in a resolution
sponsored by Senator Bilbo and
favorably reported by the Senate
District Committee-is available.
The resolution would authorize
the Federal Works Agency to ad-
vance the S150,000 to the commits
sion. 1t would be repaid at such
time as the stadium was paid for
out Of receipts.
Self Liquidation Is Proposed.
The stadium is proposed as a
self-liquidating proposition spon-
sored by private capital since, ac-
cording to Senator Bilbo, Congress
would never appropriate the 20 to
80 million dollars required for its
construction.
After the Stadium Commission
has completed its studies, it is
planned to gain the interest of
private investors.
Senator Bilbo said the commission
has conducted a country wide sur
vey of stadia and has found that
most cities consider them white
elephants"
This" he said. "is due to the
fact they are not all-weather propo-
sitions and are too small to get
enough people in to make them
pay" (The stadium favored by
Senator Bilbo would seat 100000 and
be completely roofedD
Chairman Randolph OF the House
District Committee and vice chair
man of the Stadium Commission
said today he had preached the
advisability Of adequate facilities
here for years" and is "keenly in
terested in the development of the
National Capital, including provi-
sion of an adequate stadium, in
keeping with the spirit and the
beauty of Washington in its post
war development as a world
metropolis"
Reports Truman's Position.
Yesterday Maj. Gen. U. S. Grant
III, chairman of the National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission, said the President had
given favorable reception" to
stadium plans submitted to him.
The planning commission laid sew
eral plans for the East Capitol
street and stadium developments be-
fore the President during its last
monthly meeting, September 20.
Gen. Grant said the planning
commission does not favor as large
stadium as does Senator Bilbo
believing that a capacity of 10000
to 100000 would be more suitable.

When planning the relief ship
ments, the Swedish authorities did
not deal in any detail with Den
mark, the Stockholm daily, Da-
gems Nyheter, pointed out some
time ago. Normally, Denmark's
own most important industry is
foodstuffs for export, and in food
supply the country will probably
always be able to pull through,
whatever damages are wrought by
the long occupation. AS far as
Denmark is concerned, Sweden
will therefore, concentrate on as
sistance of an industrial and finan-
cial nature, to be arranged when
Denmark is again free.
With the Netherlands a credit
agreement was signed in London
last October. Outside of this
agreement, certain orders have
been placed in Sweden by the
Netherlands, mostly for locomo-
tives. On December 18, 1914, the
first of a series of so locomotives
was completed at the Nydquist &
Holm works at Trollhattan.
In the end of December it was
announced that Swedish authori-
ties were ready to start shipping
about 100000 worth of vital
food supplies to the Netherlands,
as a gift. Two ships loaded with
such goods are only waiting for
minor details concerning safe con-
duct to be settled. Further relief
shipments are being prepared.
Because Sweden is small ma
ton it does not mean that it's
role must be small, Gratke said
in the above mentioned article.
AS the rule of law and the con-
sideration of human decencies is
reestablished, the voices of those
who spoke in this idiom will be
stronger and stronger. Voices
speaking with vision and idealism
will be heard from Sweden, Graf
Ike says. One might add that
Sweden, not only in words but also
in deeds, will give the world an
example of international good will.
The figures indicate that every
Swede, old or young, rich or poor,
is willing to contribute $4,000 to-
ward the rebuilding work in Eu-
rope. This surely can be called
the good neighbor policy.-(Albin

of private organizations, such as
the Swedish Red Cross, the Swed-
ish Norway Relief Society, and
Save the Children are represented
These organizations depend for
support on private contributions.
Sweden has succeeded in build
ing up emergency reserves of GER
tain vital goods, out of which de-
liveries will be made to the Scan
dinavian neighbor countries as
soon as circumstances permit. AS
regards assistance to Norway, the
situation is very complicated, that
country being still under German
occupation. Swedish relief activi-
ties are furthermore restricted by
Allied shipping rules. On many
occasions the hope has been ex-
pressed in Sweden that the West
ern Powers, in view of the increas-
ing distress in Norway, would con-
sent to immediate deliveries Of
necessities on larger scale. In
this connection it has been point
ed out that the Swedish supervi-
sion over the distribution of the
goods in Norway has been abso-
lutely effective in keeping the
goods out of German hands.
Last fall Sweden received the
permission to double the deliveries
of foodstuffs to 500 tons a month
and to send $1,000 pairs of chill
dren's shoes and $50 tons of cloth
ing. Fifty thousand children have
now received new clothing of the
sports type, including ski boots,
and another $4,000 have received
boots only. Through the Swedish
Norway Relief Society, which han
dies practically all activities of
this kind in Norway, free hot
meals are being served daily to
about 225,00O people, mostly chill
dren. The present monthly food
shipments of 500 tons go entirely

to these food centers.
During the fall it was also pos
sible to send 5000 tons of sugar
to Norway, and Sweden was pre-
pared to ship another 5000 tons
during the early winter. This SUI
gar was sold in Norway against
special coupons, and the money
thus raised is used for cash relief
to seamen's families, whose bread
winners are working outside the
country, that is for the Allies. At
present about 10000 such families
receive total of $3.50, 900 a month
Still another form of relief has
been gift parcels. Last summer
10000 such parcels were sent to
Norwegian children, and la S
Christmas $4,000 parcels were
distributed in the same way.
Moreover, 10000 parcels are sent
every month to needy families.
Sweden has granted Norway a
credit for rehabilitation purposes
amounting to $50,OOO,OOO. TIL e
goods ordered under that agree
ment cannot be delivered until
Norway is liberated.
During the course of the war,
Sw d S h shipyards have built
some twenty-five vessels for Nor
wegian account, totaling about
100000 tons DIV. Many of these
are tankers of more than $1,000
tons, no ship being less than 5000
tons. In addition, more than 80
ships have been ordered by Nor
We gian owners. All deliveries
await the end of the war.
The value of Sweden's total No.
vember exports was about S24,-
100000, against only S14, 100000
for October. The increase was
caused mainly by relief shipments
to Finland, which is now fighting
the Germans. In the middle of
December it was stated that 65,-
900 tons of grain had been sent,
out of a total quantity of 10000
tons to be delivered before the end
of the winter The food deliveries
which Sweden has promised Fin
land further include 10000 tons of
sugar and $500 tons of edible fats.
Sweden is also sending raw mate
rails and industrial products, such
as iron and steel, textiles, chemi-
Gals, salt, and coal and coke. These
deliveries are made on credit. The
