Carbonen Tells Of
His Attempt 70 Get
Revenue Man Here

After giving an effective de-
scription Of the results Of his trip
to Washington on the Poinciana
Project problem, substantially as
published in The Citizen Tues
day, Commissioner Louis Car
bonell told the City Commission
Tuesday night that he had also
been TO the Bureau II Internal
Revenue in an effort to gel an
agent assigned to the Key West
airport.
Carbonell made his disclosure
when Arturo Boza. local restau-
rant man. protested to the Com
mission that 394 Cuban sight
seers had arrived here by air
Saturday and then had gone on
to Miami and points north with
out seeing Key West.
Y The Commissioner said that, at
the request of Rogelio Gomez.
representative Of Aerovias c.,
here, he had seen the Assistant
Personnel Director Of the Bureau
of Internal Revenue. a Mr.. Cross.
He told Cross that Key West air.
port was in need Of an agent to
issue certificates of compliance to
foreigners arriving here.
Cross told Carbonell that there
were many such needs all over
the country but the cut in APP
preparations of the Republican
administration had forced dras-
tic reduction in staffs. Carbonell
said solution is difficult.
Mayor w. w. Demeritt advised
.going to the highest authori-
ties" while Commissioner Albert
Cooper brought out that it should
be possible to move someone
from the Miami Internal Reve-
nue. office here. Carbonell re-
piled that Miami has the same
lack of personnel.
A resolution proposed by Coop
er was passed thanking Car
bonell for his effective work in
Washington.

$1,196,383 in Fines
Paid D. {. Last Year
I2196 Rise Over rs

Law violators paid the District
81 ,196, ,383.38 in fines during the last
fiscal year-a 81 per cent increase
over the amount they paid the year
before-Corporation Counsel Vernon
E. West revealed yesterday.
In his annual report to the Com
missioners, the chief OF the gov
ernment's legal staff detailed a
heavy increase in the work of his
Office. His staff had handled, he
said, 1895 court cases between
July /, 1916. and June 30, 1947-13
per cent more cases than in the
previous fiscal year.
The criminal division of Munic-
ipal Court accounted for 38,720 or
80 per cent of court cases handled,
the corporati ton counsel said.
This figure, Mr.. West told a re-
porter, could hardly be taken as
rejecting the presence OF a crime
wave in the city. More than two
thirds of the total fines paid in
Municipal Court, he pointed out,
involved traffic offenses.
This, Mr.. West added, was to be
explained by the increase in the
number of vehicles.
In addition to its courtroom work,
the report added, the corporation
counsel's Office performed other du-
ties ranging from service as general
counsel to the Public Utilities Com
mission to the drafting of legisla-
ton affecting the District.
Forty such bills were prepared
by Mr.. Vests staff, according to
the report. At the same time, the
Office prepared for the Commis-
sioners 81 reports to congressional
committees and to the Bureau of
the Budget.
In one respect, at least, the year
was remarkable, Mr. West wrote.
An all-time record of 1884 sos SO
was collected from the estates of
insane persons, in payment for their
care and treatment at st. Eliza
beth's Hospital.

The damage had been on the left
side, the street side, of course, when

said that to have fixed these tenders
a man would have had to jack up
that whole side of the car, and take
off both the wheels.
Mr.. Rainbow has theories, of

not give pixies all the credit for a
thing like this. Maybe. he thinks,
the man who bumped him last
spring found the car again and had

he was fixing his own car, and fixed

Maybe. But little Bruce, who has
