Additional Board 10 Speed
Permit Revocation Cases

An additional board has been es-
tablished to catch up with the
,000-case backlog of the Board of
Revocation and Restoration of OPP
orators Permits, George E. Keneipp,
director of the Department of We
hicles and Traffic said yesterday.
The board is composed Of IL Dis
trict officials who usually hear cases
in groups of three. Mr.. Keneipp set
up an additional panel after the
Commissioners agreed to that action
"A request by Mrs. Mary A. Silver
board chairman, for more clerical
help is under consideration.
| Meanwhile, Mr.. Keneipp said he
believes motorists IS years of age
or older should be the first exam
ined if his department starts to re-
examine drivers, although, he added
age is not necessarily a criterion
of driving ability or fitness.
The accident rate of drivers in
the 65 or over age group is a small
percentage of total accidents, but
Mr.. Keneipp said. research and
medical opinion support the theory
that driving ability deteriorates
markedly with age or illness.

Teen-Aeers Arrested for Parties
In Aunt and UncIe's' Apartment

A 15-year -old girl and a 17-year-
old boy were booked on house

tives here to check on the premises

Meetings 70 Reyamp
Sliding Scale System

The Public Utilities Commission
and officials of the Potomac Electric
Power Co. are soon to begin series
of conferences designed to revamp
the so-called sliding scale arrange
ment under which electric rates
here are determined.
Fresh from a three-year court
battle over the commission's inter-
probation Of the existing arrange
ment, both sides are anxious to work
out necessary changes to avert
similar disputes in the future.
Chairman James H. Flanagan
said no date has been set for the
meetings, but they will take place
as soon as possible.
The sliding scale arrangement
dates from a consent decree in 1924
Under its provisions, the commits
sion authorizes the company a rate
of return. If this is exceeded, part
of the excess returns to the con-
sumer in lowered rates or refund.
If the rate earned Is less than that
authorized, the company immedi-
ately is permitted to ask an increase
in rates enough to bring earnings
up to the authorized level.
Under the contested order of the
commission in 1914, the company
authorized rate was reduced from
s per cent to 51a per cent. The rate
base was changed from a monde
preciated to a deprecated base.
Another item due for discussion,
it was said. will be the handling of
the company's depreciation reserve
This too was changed in the 1914
rate order.
Meanwhile at 10 am, Tuesday,
the commission will hear the Cap
ltal Transit Co.'S latest plan for
substituting buses for streetcars on
the eastern section of the Rosslyn-
Benning line.
An earlier plan was rejected by
the commission last spring but a
month later the members agreed to
reopen the case for additional tes-
timony.
Citizen groups were split over the
proposal at public hearings last
fall but most favored the idea. Busi-
nessmen along the streetcar line
III some instances opposed the
changeoyer, fearing an eventual
change of route

Horan Group 10 Study
Final Quarter Of City
Budget Tomorrow

The last fourth OF the District S
record $97,oOo,000 budget for the
year beginning July l will come
under review tomorrow when the
Horan subcommittee of the House
Appropriations Committee takes up
the 25,OOO,000 public works esti-
mates.
With less than two weeks to go
before new funds will be needed to
finance District operations, it seemed
unlikely final congressional action
on the new bill could be completed
before the end of this fiscal year.
Limited funds may have to- be
granted for an emergency period to
prevent the District from going
fundless after July /, awaiting final
actions on the regular supply bill.
When the District subcommittee
headed by Representative Horan,
Republican, of Washington, COM
pletes its study of District requests,
there still will be a lapse until the
testimony of executive hearings has
been transcribed and printed and
the subcommittee given a chance to
mark up the bill.
Then would follow action by the
full House Appropriations Commit
tee, the House, and, later, the Senate
after hearings before its District
subcommittee. After that there may
be a delay to permit House and
Senate conferees to adjust their diff
ferences.
The Horan House Subcommittee
yesterday made beginning on the
public works budget. Testimony was
taken from spokesmen from three
minor divisions, the municipal arch
itect's Office, the superintendent oi
District buildings and the Depart
ment of Inspection. Need for more
employees to inspect fire hazards ir
buildings was raised during discus
sion of the inspection department
officials said.
District department heads in the
public works divisions have requested
funds for the hire of 118 additional
employees. The budget submitted by
! the Commissioners cut this to II.

lis Changes Ordered
In Collateral Required
For Traffic Violations

Sweeping new changes in mini
mum collateral to be posted for first
offense traffic violations were an
nounced yesterday by Chief Judge
George P. Barse at Municipal Court.
The. changes will go into effect
July /.
About lis changes were ordered
by judges in the collateral required
in a list Of more than 200 traffic
violations, Judge Barse said.
At the same time the judges in
creased from 50 to IS the amount OF
collateral that must be furnished in
charges of jaywalking, one OF the
most widely violated regulations.
Judges told reporters most Of the
increases were aimed at violations
affecting moving vehicles-the basic
cause of accidents. Parking regula-
tions formed the basis of most re-
ductions in penalties-which Judge
George D. Nelson said "have been
far too high in the past"
Reckless Driving Amount Set.
However, no change was made IN
the requirement of $50 collateral set
for driving while drunk and driving
over so miles an hour. But the pen
atty for reckless driving was changed
from bond of no specified amount"
to $500 cash or bond.
Among other collateral increases
we're:
Failing to give attention to opera
ton, S. to $40; failing to slow down
for an intersection, IS to $40; unsafe
mechanical condition of vehicle, $40
to $25 or 500 bond; passing at in
tersection, IS to $40; failing to give
the right of way to a pedestrian,
$40 to S25, and failing to give the
right of way to vehicle, $40 to SIS.
Reductions Made.
Collateral for driving without a
permit was reduced from 500 to
$50. Other reductions included:
Parking abreast, $40 to IS; park
ing too close to bus stop, $40 to
So; obstructing a crosswalk while
parked, $40 to $5; passing flash
ing red light, $40 to S., and making
unnecessary noise with horn, sic
to $5.
The list, changed for the first time
by Judges of the court, was last re-
vised by the Commissioners in No
vember, 1941. Judges said regula-
ton of the collateral changes was
taken out of the Commissioners
hands after agreement that it was
not an administrative function.

from time to time, Detective Beach
said.
He explained the entry was dis
covered on one of these checkups
when the door was answered by the
youth. The boy claimed permission
to use the apartment had been OBJ
tanned, but Mr.. Troiano, when noti-
fed. denied this, the detective
added.
He said Mr.. Troiano came to
Washington to inspect the apart
ment and reported it had been
damaged substantially, and that
a quantity of liquor, some clothing
an electric fan and savings banks
containing about s65 had been
taken.
Detective Beach said the girl had
told her guest the apartment be-
longed to an uncle and aunt who
would be in Europe for about three
years.
Mr.. Troiano said he was not ac-
,ouainted with the girls family.
