Senate Group Backs
Use Of D. T.. Funds fol
Information Center

A favorable report on the House.
approved bill authorizing the Com
missioners to use 100000 of District
revenues to finance the operation in
the next fiscal year of the We Grams
Information Center was order I'd to-
day by the Senate District Commit
tee.
At the insistence of Senator Sal
tonstall. Republican, of Massachu-
setts the committee added an
amendment to terminate the au-
thority for use of District funds for
this purpose on December 81, 1947.
The House bill left the authority to
run to a year beyond the ending of
the war emergency period.
The Senate Appropriations Com
mittee is now considering a request
for 100000 appropriations for this
purpose, but this would be subject
to elimination on a point of order,
unless the enabling legislation is
passed previously.
The Senate District Committee
today also voted six to two to re-
port favorably to the Senate a bill
by Senator McCarran, Democrat. of
Nevada to direct the War Depart
ment to buy the residence of Joseph
Bockovac, 1879 Chesapeake street
S.W. The Bockovac home is on a
direct line with one of the runways
of Boiling Field and he has pro-
tested a constant parade of low
flying planes landing on the run
way have caused him and his wife
great apprehension from possible
accidents. War Department officials
opposed the bill, saying it might
create precedent, resulting in the
department being flooded by SIM
liar demands from owners of homes
near flying fields all over the coun-
try. Senator McCarran said he did
not believe this would be the case.
The committee deferred action on
a bill to permit service in civil suits
on agents of nonresidents engaging
in business in the District.

District Payroll.
Fund Depleted
due 10 Raises
Senate Delay on
Extra Appropriation
Blamed for Crisis

+ Funds for salaries of the Districts S
$4,000 employees are beginning to
run out as a result of Senate delay
IN approving a $6,000,000 supple
mentary appropriation sought by
the District to make up for salary
increases granted last July, 1t was
disclosed today.
Two minor city payrolls - the
poundmaster and the coroner's Of
fice-which were due yesterday, have
been held up, it was learned, and
the Gallinger Hospital payroll due
Friday also is scheduled to be de-
layed.
A spokesman for the auditors Of
flee said nearly every city depart
ment could be affected by the delay
in acting on the pending deficiency
measure.
The situation arises, 1t was ex-
planned. from the fact the pay
raises granted city employees were
approved in July, 1945, after the
passage of the appropriation act
for the current year.
The appropriation act thus con-
tanned ALLEGATION of sufficient funds
only to meet the salary bills before
the boosts were approved.
With the passage of the pay in
crease acts, however, the city began
paying the increased wages and no.
titled the Bureau of the Budget it
would require an additional $6,OO0,-
900 to carry through this fiscal year.
At that time officials estimated the
salary funds would become ex-
hausted in late spring or early sum-
mer.
At the present time, according to
the auditors Office, enough money
is on hand to pay the Police De-
partment through May l and the
Fire Department through May Is.
Funds for teachers pay are expected
to last until June /.
The 100000 for the District is
contained in bill providing similar
funds for all Government agencies
in the same position as the District.
The measure already has cleared the
House and is awaiting approval of
the Senate.

Chinese Loundrymen Given
OPA Advice in Own Lunouooe

A harassed spokesman for the
Office of Price Administration re-
sorted to the use Of the only Chinese
words he knew this morning when
he explained to % Chinese laundry
men why they should comply with
price control.
Follow these ceiling prices" said
R. T. Edwards, chairman of Ration
Board 81, pointing to an OPA poster
as he addressed the group at 44O0
Thirteenth street NV, "and every
thing will be- ding how very good
If you don't follow them it will be
boo how (very baO."
After Philip Lee, a Chinese laun"
dryman living at 1926 Wilson boule-
yard, Arlington, translated the
chairman's remarks, :, the group

talked things over and agreed to
form Chinese laundrymen's asso-
citation at their H street (N.W.)
clubhouse Sunday and also choose q
representative to act as liaison agent
between themselves and the ration
board.
Mr.. Edwards, a retired Army COL
onel who was stationed in China in
1932-1935, assured the laundrymen
that OPA regulations represent
nothing more than friendly neigh
borhood's interest in forestalling
imitation.
The meeting was called by Mr..
Edwards to avoid the necessity of
each Chinese laundryman bringing
an interpreter every time he had a
question to ask the board.

else in the hospital was there q
nurse who could be spared to come
to the ward.
Impossible" Situation.
For q babies there should have
been eight or nine nurses instead o1
two, DR.. Sweet said.
1T is not case of actual neglect,
DR.. Alvin Sweeney, superintendent
said. Rather, 1t is that we coule
do so much more for these children
if we only had more nurses"
A total staff of only five is as.
signed to the ward, where some.
times all As beds are full, DR.. Sweet
said. Trying to cover a 24-houl
period with only five nurses, saddlee
with special diets, special baths ane
special treatments, is an impossible
situation, he explained.
Until more nurses are obtained th'
"preventable" deaths will keep oc.
curing, DR.. Sweet declared.
They're still dying unnecessarily
and no relief in sight," he said.

Neighborhood Mourns
Suicide Of Grocer
WHO Sold Business

The neighborhood at Nichols ave-
nue. and Morris street Sc. was piec-
ing together today the evidence
which might explain the death yes
terday afternoon of its popular cor
ner grocer, Jacob Denenberg, so.
For the past 81 years Mr.. Denen-
berg, moustached and goateed, had
operated store at 2252 Nichols ave-
nue., Anacostia. Police at the Elev-
enth Precinct station house looked
to him for their midnight lunches.
Tales of neighborhood life were told
In his store year after year, tales of
birth, death and marriage. The store
was a community meeting place and
the proprietor knew every one.
His friends were surprised and
saddened about a month ago when
Mr.. Denenberg told them he had
been offered good" price for his
small grocery. That he had ac-
cepted the offer was evident when
a sign was erected which stated that
the structure was to be torn down
and a theater built in its place
Neighborhood cheer was restored
when the grocer announced he was
looking for another building nearby
where he could open a store once
again.
Casual inquiries by neighbors
within recent days brought from
Mr.. Denenberg the opinion that
good locations were hard to find
He seemed depressed, the neighbor-
hood decided. His friends at the
police station recalled today that he
had lamented the fact he had sold
the store 80 cheap"
At $3.50 o'clock yesterday after
noon, policeman said the grocer
was seen leaving hardware store
with a length of window sash rope
IN his hand. Shortly after o'clock
his wife found her husbands body
hanging by rope from a banister
on the first floor of the store build
ing.
Into the police record book across
the street went the entry: ".
Suicide, died by self hanging with a
window sash rope from banister
Jacob Denenberg, so. Survivors,
widow, Gussie: son, Victor; daugh-
ter, Helen. Pronounced dead, Casu-
atty Hospital $50 pm. Closed"
Funeral services will be held al
the Danzansky funeral home, 35O1

tomorrow. Burial will be in Work
men Circle Cemetery.
