That beard on Dutch Miller's
chin doesn't mean that he's getting
ready to play Santa Claus. He's
simply paying off the election bet
he lost to Cappy Swanson.
And while some folks allow it's
all a lot of nonsense - like the
wheelbarrow ride that Cappy had
to give Dutch after last election
day-from where sit, it's a mighty,
wholesome aftermath to a differ
ence of opinion.
Because good Americans all take

Hall Use
Plans Face Protest

Takoma Park residents are ex-
pected to air conflicting views on
the use Of municipal building at
8 Columbia road, when their City
Council meets tonight.
! The discussion involves a decision
to devote one room to the exclusive
use of a kindergarten, thereby
halving the space available for
public meetings of civic groups. and
proposal to renovate the building
so it can accommodate more city
services.
Mayor John C. Post said the
kindergarten room was set aside
because of overcrowding at the j.
Enos Ray School in Prince Georges
County. The municipal building is
across the boundary in Montgomery.
The feasibility of renovating the
municipal building for use "in its
entirety by city services" is sug-
gested in letter to more than 20
community organizations by Sher-
wood Citizens, jr., chairman of the
Civic Improvement Committee He
said the changes would bring about
greater efficiency in a rapidly ex-
panding government.
The organizations would be ex-
pected to make plans for conduct
ing their meetings elsewhere, be-
ginning in September, 1949. Some
members of these groups are known

Druftees ndVeteruns' Guide

This column answers the three
principal questions bothering
Guide readers-as indicated by
letters I've been getting:

worried terms about sons who did
their part in The army of occupa-
ton after VI day.
shouldn't my son get the same de-
ferment consideration as some one
who spent four Or five months in the
Army during the fighting war but
vino never went overseas
OF course veterans who enlisted
or we've drafted after VI day do get
special consideration. The are auto
matlcally exempt from the draft if
they spent as much as 80 days in
uniform on active duty.
Here are the two main deferment
regulations for veterans:
/. Any ex-serviceman who spent
90 days on active duty between De-
cember 7. 1s4l, and September 2
l345, is automatically exempt.
z. Any eX-serviceman who, failing
to meet that 90-day wartime service,
spent at least II months in the serv-
Ice at any time between September
Is, 1910. and June "a. 1948, is auto
matically exempt, too.
Who is an "ex-serviceman?" Any
person who served "honorably, on
active duty in the Army, the
Air Force, the Navy, the Marine
Corps, the Coast Guard. the Public
Health Service-or the armed forces
OF any country allied with the
United States in World War II prior
to September 2. l945."
How about former members of the
merchant marine? For months
you'll remember, Congress hag-
gled over the question of wheth.
er to extend CT Bill benefits to the
men who manned our merchant
marine during the war. 1t never
did.
The draft law makes no provision
at all for former members of the
merchant marine.

I HoIdup Men Sought
In Theft Of $500 at

By the Associofsd Press

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. Sept. 90
State and local police today
pressed search for seven masked
men who invaded a small club
house here and escaped with $2.500
in cash and an undetermined
amount of jewelry taken from at
tendants at a private stag party.
Three of four automobiles in
which the armed gang fed have
been recovered but police said the
fourth was still missing.
The holdup was staged before
dawn yesterday at the Boat House,
behind Jimmy Fox's well-knoWn
Piney Point Club, a short distance
outside the Virginia Beach corpo-
rate limits. The men were reported
to have been armed with Army
Garand rifles and a submachine-
gun.
Clothing Is Recovered.
The police said that in addition
to the three automobiles, they have
recovered several suits of khaki
shirts and trousers the robbers ap-
parently had worn over other cloth
ing during the robbery.

County and Virginia State Police
threw up roadblocks on all routes

unsightly and occupies far too much
space needed badly for vehicle
traffic
Faced with this situation, num-
ber of conclusions have been
reached by city and transit officials.
The Public Utilities Commission
originally ordered the transit COM
pany, which was willing to abandon
the streetcar line and install buses.
But before this transfer could be
made. a threatened gasoline short
age last spring impelled the PUG
to order Capital Transit to delay
the change until March 1, 1949.
Mr.. Merrill said last night the
company. which recently acquired
100 new buses, now has the neces-
sary 100 buses for setting up service
on the line. In fact. Mr.. Merrill
said three bus routings would be
scheduled if contemplated rush hour
service is included.
No Money Authorized.
Work on tearing up the streetcar
tracks will begin as soon as the
bus service gets under way. Re-
moval of the tracks, he said, is the
company's responsibility. Repaving

New York Avenue Trees Doomed Track Removal Plan

A traffic upheaval will begin here,
next March. throwing a 3-mile
stretch of the Benning streetcar
line from the Treasury Building to
Kenilworth into turmoil for months
and eventually booming the shade
trees on downtown New York
avenue
The streetcar tracks from Fiji
teenth street and New York avenue
NV, eastward along New York
avenue. H street and Benning road
to Kenilworth avenue NE, are going
to be torn up.
The 40 stately old sycamores
separating the tracks from the
roadway on New York avenue be-
tween Thirteenth and Ninth streets
NV, are scheduled to be destroyed
A District Highway official said
the police have. long advocated
their removal as traffic hazard
He said there has been some oppo-
sition from citizens on the proposal,
but added that many of the trees
are dead or dying. While no specific
order for their destruction has been
issued, the official said. the long
range plan calls for their removal
when the tracks are taken out.
Buses will Be Substituted.
Buses are going to traverse the
already congested and narrow
Treasury to Benning streetcar
route at the same time that Capital
Transit crews labor over the task
of removing the streetcar tracks.
This arrangement may be spread
over a period of years because the
financial straits of the city govern
ment may prohibit appropriation Of
enough money to pave the space
left in the middle of the street when
the tracks are gone.
This is the situation as described
bv District officials and E. D. Mer-
rill, Capital Transit Company pres
ident, last night:
Capital Transit's street car line
between RosSlyn and Benning has
long been a headache to both pa
irons and company. There has been
no great complaint about that
stretch of it between Rosslyn and
Fifteenth street and New York ave-
nue. NV.
But from the Treasury Depart
ment east over New York avenue
and H street. the street cars have
been slow and uneconomical. When
the street car stops on H street,
all other traffic stops. If truck
or automobile happens to be double
parked, nobody moves.
Auto Traffic COngested.
From Fifteenth and H streets
NE, east on Benning road to Ken
ilworth avenue NE. the street cars
move at a faster clip. but automo- |
bile traffic at rush hour is forced. I
for safety, to move slowly because
of the 28-foot width of the road
