Hoffman Offers Plan
TO Solve Problem Of
Segregation al Pools

Representative Hoffman. Re-
publican. Of Michigan offered his
own solution today to the segrega-
ton issue involving the six pub
icly-operated swimming pools
here.
He offered a resolution in the
House which would require as
signment of "two pools for the
exclusive use Of one racial group,
two pools for the exclusive use of
the other racial group. and two
pools for use on a basis Of non-
segregation.
AS additional pools became
available, they would be allotted
on the same basis, having due
regard. however, for the number
of residents of the District Of Co.
lumbia in each racial group" The
resolution would provide that the
principle established with respect
to pools could be carried out with
other recreational facilities. "by
assigning such facilities for ex-
elusive use by different racial and
mixed groups for specified periods
on particular days or particular
hours"
In a statement explaining his
resolution, Mr.. Hoffman said, in
part: * u
ACCEPTING facts asa they exist
and as they are known to all,
am seeking a way so that every
one, no matter what his color
or origin, may have equal oppor-
tunity here in the District of
Columbia, the seat of the Ma
tional Government. to create a
situation which may act as a
proving ground where we can test
some of the theories, some of
the plans. which look toward the
end of discrimination which Gre
ates iniuSticeS."

FORT MEADE. Md. July 21.-
The same old Army routine, spiced
with some unusual ingredients,
makes up the r. o. T. c. summer
encampment life of Platoon 8.
Company B, comprised mainly OF
GEORGETOWN University students.
Item: When Frank L. Young. jr..
21. of 420 Taylor street. Chevy
Chase. Md, loaned his canteen to
a grizzled sergeant during field
maneuvers. the canteen later was
returned. not empty, but full OF
cold lemonade.
Item: When Army Secretary
Gray recently inspected the
r. O. T. C. camp, the Hoyas
added their voices to one
of the universal gripes of
the 1920 college students pre-
pairing for Army commissions here.
Why. they asked, couldn't they at
tend classes Wednesday afternoons
and have all day Saturday off =?
Result: A full Wednesday sched-
ule, nothing to do from Friday
evening until Monday morning.
Item: AS a reporter chatted
with the Georgetown contingent
just after a call to muster re-
sounded through the r. o. T. C.
area. a student noncom entered
the barracks and asked. "Are you
gentlemen planning to fall in?"
Lest civilian refugees from
World War II Army discipline
think the national defense pro-
gram is in jeopardy. it can be re-
ported that the 40 Georgetown
students in the platoon draw
KIP duty as a matter of course !;
hear reveille at $50 am. and are
subject to a bed check at IL pm.
In between, they attend out
door classes beneath a broiling sun
or a driving rain. take lengthy
marches and draw demerits for
much the same things Army per-
sonnet have drawn demerits for
since the birth of the Republic.
It can also be reported that the
apparent devil-may-care attitude
of the Georgetown students, as
evidenced by the horseplay in
the barracks or during rest Pc
riods, is feigned.
The platoon fired an average OF
1852 hits out of 210 rounds on the

Truman 10 Make
New Appeal for
Sesqui Funds
News Conference Told
He Will Ask ; Million
For D. G. Celebration

President Truman said today
he intended to make another ap-
peal to Congress for $3,000,000 to
stage Washington's Sesquicenten-
nial celebration next year COM
memorating the 150th anniversary
of the establishment of the Ma
tional Capital.
Mr.. Truman told his news con-
ference the money should be ap-
propriated and added that he
hoped it would be. Congress thus
far has refused to grant any
money for the Freedom Fair.
The House twice has voted
against a bill to finance the cele-
oration. After once denying
money for the fete, the House
voted on June IS to insist on it's
denial of funds for the National
Capital Sesquicentennial Com
mission.
RFC Loan Sought.
Earlier. the Senate had inserted
A $4,000, 900 item for the COM
mission in the second deficiency
appropriation bill. When the
House approved a motion OF
Chairman Cannon Of the House
Appropriations Committee to hold
out against the Senate amend
ment, Chairman McGrath of the
Senate District Committee de-
cided he could not ask the senior
body to insist on its proposal.
On June %. the commission
took its money problem directly
to the White House and decided
to try for q Reconstruction Fl
nance Corp. loan for either 81
600, 900 or $3,000.000 to finance
the celebration. Two days later,
Representative Mary Norton,
Democrat, of New Jersey. intro
duced bill to authorize the
$4,000 loan.
The Norton measure was re-
ferred to the House Banking Com
mittee, which has not yet acted.
Congress Approval Needed.
The question to President Tru-
man today about the sesquicen-
tennial was prompted by reports
that if he again sought funds they
might be approved by the House
Appropriations Committee. This
committee was the principal
stumbling block in the path OF
previous efforts to secure Con-
gressional approval of funds to
finance the sesqui.
The RFC cannot make the loan
to the commission without Con-
gressional approval although COM
mission officials contend that
most, If not all, of the money
would be refunded to the Treasury
out of admission receipts.

Liquor Dealer Facing
Tax Lien, Prefers Jail
To Paying That Much

A $26.190.62 tax lien was filed
in District Court today against
Washington liquor dealer. who
promptly declared. I'D rather go
to Jail than pay that much
money"
The tax collector reported that
Samuel De Lisi. who owns liquor
store at 1881 North Capitol street,
owed the money on back taxes for
1s45, 1916 and 1947.
Mr.. De Lisi said he figured his
income tax for those years should
have totaled about $4,000 or ST.
600.
"They hooked me plenty" he
lamented. They've got me crazy.
I'd rather 60 to Jail than pay that
much money"
Mr.. De Lists reaction came as
bitter criticism of Internal. Reve-
nue. Bureau methods Of handling
allegedly delinquent tax accounts
was voiced by chiropractor and
an attorney.
Calls Bureau Unfair.
The complaints were aired by
DR.. B. William Reed, 1921 Con-
necticut avenue NV. and George
Papanicolas, lawyer Of 4735 But
terworth place NV. The tax COL
lector's Office reported in lien
notices filed yesterday in District
Court that DR.. Reed owed $639 SO
on his 1945 taxes and that Mr..
Papancolas owed $21 1,805.59 for
1948.
DR.. Reed accused the bureau of
using unfair" means of arriving
at his tax figure by basing its
estimate on his bank statements.
"One think they included was
a $4,000 loan which I obtained
to build a basement apartment
in my home" he said. Il guess
I made a mistake by depositing
that borrowed money in my bank
account"
The chiropractor. who said he
has practiced here for as years.
also contended that some patients
have paid him with checks larger
than the bills they owed him.
To these patients he gave correct
change and then banked their
checks. The Government used
their face value in determining
his taxes due. DR.. Reed COM
planned.

But I've been sick for the last
seven months and I have not the
time, energy or money to fight

he said. II know one thing" he
added, II am not going to borrow
the amount they say I owe. They
probably would tax that too"
Attorney Papanicolas blamed
the bureaus notification system.
He said the first he knew OF any
lien action against him was what
I read in yesterdays paper"
TT I had received prior notice
I certainly would have paid" the
lawyer asserted. emphasizing that
he settled his account last Friday,
four days before the lien notice
was filed in court.

Should Treat Hay
|SfubbIe for !
|WeeyiI, Agent Says

As soon as alfalfa weevil ap-
pear in great enough numbers
to cause damage, the first hay
crop should be cut and the
stubble treated Immediately, &C
cording to N. A. Jacobson, coun-
ty extension agent.
Sprays are the most effective,
including toxaphene, chlordane
or DOT. Manufacturers direct
ions should be used in applying
the respective spraV materials.
busting with a drag harrow
ahead or behind the sprayer will
increase kills.
Treating alfalfa stubble right
after taking off the first crop
for hay will give much better
control than attempting to
treat a standing hay crop. In
addition, there will be no haz-
ard of livestock poisoning. Tt is
no longer considered safe to
use forage treated with organic
insecticides because of the
danger to humans consuming
milk and meat from animals
fed on such forage.
Early cutting of the first crop
alfalfa will not only produce
high quality hay with an album
dance of protein, Vitamin A
and total digestible nutrients,
but also a greater tonnage of
hay. Results of studies at the
Huntley experiment station
shows the tonnage of dry hay
rated at 100 per cent when cut
at early bloom stage. At half
bloom stage the tonnage de-
creased to 99.4 per cent, while
at full-bloom stage tonnage
dropped to TIT per cent. Feed
values decreased accordingly.
