Truman Yacht Smears
CHARGED 10 Oil Firm

The L. P. Steuart Co. today stood
accused of dirtying the beautiful
white paint job of the presidential
yacht Williamsburg.
Chief Assistant Corporation Coun-
sci Clark King told the company he
would prefer charges against it If It
failed to pay damages for the yacht
and 80 other smaller power boats
from oil that escaped from the firms
property at the foot of Fourteenth
street Sc. during storm on
August 4.
All of the boats were blackened by
fuel oil which flowed into the
Anacostia when the company's 16-
foot-deep grease trap ran over dur
ing the heavy rainstorm. Harbor
police, often troubled by oil on the
river, checked and found that at
least some of the oil on the river had
come from the Steuart place.
Complaints had been filed by
Harold S. Coates; owner of the yacht
Need-Mor, and other members of
the Eastern Power Boat Club, who
said that the river was covered with
oil from the Naval Gun Factory
down to the foot of Fourteenth
street Sc.
Mr.. King pointed out that in the
past those responsible for oil on the
river had been ordered to pay
damages. If that were done in this
case and the damages were SUBJ
stantial enough to constitute punish
ment for the company, he would
not press charges. he said.

adjustment to peacetime living.
He simply re-enlisted. Forty-five
months in japanese prison camps

The prospective "20-year-man''
was one of six Army radio experts

liant Marine defenders were over
whelmed by the Japs in the black
days of December, 1912. Sometime
during those bleak years in Japan,

Nay|or Gardens Group
Organizes 10 Fight
Sale 10 oCo-operative

A committee representing a group
of veteran and servicemen residents
of Naylor Gardens was formed last
night to seek ultimate congressional
action in protesting purchase Of the
748-unit defense housing project by
the Veterans COOPERATIVE Housing
Association.
The committee is composed OF Max
Bloom, a representative of the
Mayor Gardens Association, which
opposes the purchase; Edward F.
McKeown, Gordon D. Roachs A. l.
Moore, jr., and J. M. Bridges.
Its immediate purpose will be to
draw up q petition containing sigma
lures of residents who are opposed
to the purchase and present the petit
ton to the Joint House and Senate
Committee on Housing.
Meanwhile the committee also will
study other means of preventing the
purchase, it was said last night at a
meeting in the Community House,
3O04 Naylor road Sc. More than
1OU IColIAC1OO WCAC ~ CcSitV. @AA
Bloom presided.
The Veterans Cooperative group
has an agreement with Defense
Homes Corp, to take over the de-
velopment for $5,125 900, provided
300 residents are obtained as men,
bers and 10 per cent of the purchase
price is raised by January 10, 1913
The Naylor Gardens Association
contends 400 servicemen and vet
Grams now rent apartments at the
project. 1t say they are in danger
of losing the accommodations be-
cause they do not wish to join the
cooperative to purchase the units.
There are no more than 300 veterans
who have not joined, however, ac-
cording to a spokesman for the CO.
operative.
The veterans unit, in statement
announcing the meeting, said:
THE overwhelming majority of
veterans and non-veteran tenants
alike" oppose the sale. Instead of
providing additional housing for
veterans, it proposes to evict one
group of veterans to make room for
other occupants"

Soft Life, Now.
"Yep, this is a pretty soft life,
the sergeant tells you. Il sort OF
feel ashamed to step up and draw
my pay for this"
The sergeant enlisted in the Army
in 1888. The following year he was
sent to Hawaii, where he stayed
until volunteering for duty on Wake
in November, 1941. His wife and
child, who were at Hickam Field
Hawaii, when the Japs struck, re-
turned to this country after his
capture. They now are living in
Cincinnati.
The sergeant's main postwar
worry has been collecting back pay
and allowances for the time he was
a prisoner. Some mixup in the
Army's fiscal section has held up
this money for two years, but he
still has hopes.
"All that stuff in Japan, is just
like a bad dream" the sergeant
says. And it's getting fainter every
day. But I still feel like heading
for the Ozark Mountains the next
time a shootin' war starts"

First Step to Curb Sex Crimes
IsNew Law, OverhoIser Aqrees

A psychiatrist and a prosecutor
agreed today that the first step in
dealing with sex offenders here is
to get legal control over them
through a statute broad enough to
insure real protection for Wash
ingtons children.
Both DR.. Winfred Overholser,
head of st. sElizabethS Hospital, and
United States Attorney George
Morris Fay also agreed that some
of these offenders should be given
psychiatric treatment.
Mr.. Fay, who is now preparing a
statute to make acts of perversion a
felony, said he was .'yery interested"
in the medical. aspects Of the prob-
lem as they affect preparation Of
"a new law. His office is now study
ing other State laws to see how they
deal with sex offenders as mentally
abnormal persons.
DR.. Overholser proposed a law
providing a "long period OF social
control" over sex offenders with
alternative methods of disposing Of
these cases.
Psychiatric Tests Proposed.
Under his proposal, all sex Of
tenders would be subject to a psychi-
atric examination. On the basis Of
these medical findings, he suggested,
the offender either would be convict
ed and given a prolonged sentence"
or Gin selected cases at the discretion
of the court" committed to spe-
cialized medical institution. If the
offender were committed, he ex-
planned, the indictment could be
held open so that he could later
stand trial for the offense.
A few sex offenders, he said, re-
spond to psychiatric treatment
Others do not for lack OF any genu-
inc desire to be normal.
"But if he is not amenaple to
treatment" argued DR.. Overholser,
why should we let him out to prey
on the public?"
Both Mr.. Fay and DR.. Overaolser
emphasized the importance of long
sentences for sex offenses.
At present most persons found
guilty of acts of perversion are
given the light fines or short SEN
tences that accompany conviction
for a misdemeanor.
District Has No Statute.
Unlike At States, the District has
no statute covering such acts. The
only law of this type on the books
here is the old common-law offense
of sodomy, which is hard to prove
and narrow in its scope. Convlc-
ton of this offense is a felony, put
these convictions are rare.
The statute Mr.. Fay is now pre-
pairing would make acts of perver-
sion a felony punishable by max
imum of $4,000 fine or up to 10
years in prison.
Mr.. Fay pointed out that the
statute is the first goal. With longer
sentences, he said, sex offenders
might be forced to take psychlatrlc
treatment by making that a condl-
ton of their parole.
Favors Medical Treatment.
sI believe our requirements can
only be met by a general perversion
statute" he said, "and with the
statute should 60 in provision for
medical observation and treatment
after conviction"
Both Mr.. Fay and DR.. Overholser
nointed out that some forward-look-

Dr.. Broome Improves
After Suffering Stroke

DR.. Edwin w. Broome, superin-
tendent of Montgomery County
schools, is recovering from a stroke
suffered early this week, DR.. j. w.
Bird, his physician, disclosed today.
DR.. Broome had gone to Mont
,gomery County General Hospital at
Sandy Spring earlier in the month
for treatment of a heart ailment
On Monday the superintendent was
temporarily paralyzed on his right
side by the stroke, which also
caused loss of speech, DR.. Bird
said, but is regaining use of his
right arm and can talk normally
again.
Although optimistic that Dr.
Broome eventually will recover
completely, DR.. Bird refused to
predict when the superintendent
might be able to return to his
duties.
Edgar M. Douglass is acting
superintendent of county schools in
DR., Broome's absence.
DR.. Broome is said to be the oldest
Superintendent of schools in point
of service in Maryland. He has
been head OF the Montgomery sys-
tefa for 80 years.

ID. T.. Veterans Draw
Less III Job Benefits
Than IN "A States
By George Beveridge

The Districts $4,000 World War
II veterans on the average have
drawn less unemployment and self
employment allowances under the
CT Bill than veterans in A States,
it was learned today.
The average District veteran has
drawn $87 worth of allowances since
the program got under way in Sep
tember, 1914. The total payment
amounts to $8,471.000.
Former servicemen in only four
States have drawn less jobless pay
benefits than District veterans.
Latest Veterans Administration
computations divided the average
payments by States into five
groups-payments of from $50 to
$99, from 500 to $l49, from $3.50 to
$199, from 5000 to $40 and $3.50 and
over. In the lowest group with the
District are Vermont, Wisconsin,
Nebraska, Idaho and Nevada, and
the State with the lowest average,
Wyoming.
On the other hand, former d1s in
four Southern States - Arkansas,
Tennessee, Kentucky and West Vir-
ginia-have mades the strongest
dents in the $2,4oo, ,o0e, 900 the pro-
gram has cost the Government so
far. The top group Is led by Ar
kansas with an average payment of
$31S. g.,
Fifteen States had average pay
ments per veteran between $3.50 and
$199 and 10 States ranged between
500 and $149. Four others-Penn-
sylvania, Alabama, Mississippi and
Missouri-ranked in the second
highest group, with payments over
5000.
The readjustment allowances are
divided into two classes, the unem-
ployment and self-employment al
lowances. Unemployed veterans can
draw a maximum Of $40 for So
weeks. If veterans are self -em-
ployed and make less than 500 a
month, they can draw the differ
ence between the amount they
make and $100 in the special
benefit.
To date, nearly half the Nations
100000 veterans have drawn at
least one of the benefits, the agency
reported. However, the 1920 Club"
