Determine DC. Needs
By Don S. Warren

Senator Neely. Democrat. OF
West Virginia. new head of the
Senate District Committee, still
doesn't like sales taxes, but he
announced last night he has no
plan to attempt to repeal the
city's 2 per cent levy.
That Is water over the dam. v
he told reporters shortly after his
selection as District chairman had
been unanimously confirmed by
the Senate.
He added. however, that he is
prepared to fight any move to
increase the sales tax rate or to
reduce the present exemptions.
Senator Nicely said he has high
hopes for making Washington
more Of a real model city for the
Nation. He told reporters he will
issue an early call for a confer
ence with spokesmen for the
people to tell him what they want
He said he wants to find out
not only what they want. but
"how many of the people would
be willing to cooperate in OBJ
tanning objectives that are within
the realm of possibility"
He said he probably will ask
District officials to give him their
views hut that he does not want
to talk with "the Office holders
until after he has first heard the
views Of the people.

has spent .26 years in Congress

Demolition Cost Seer
Forcing City 10 Keep
Three Old Schools

Because of Unexpectedly hlgh
bids for demolition, the District is
faced with having to tolerate the
existence of three old school build
ings it had hoped to raze.
When bids were opened earlier
this month on demolition of five
abandoned school buildings and a
group of other structures on play
ground space, it was discovered
the total of low bids amounted to
$21,477
In the past, the city almost al
ways got cash return on demoli-
ton contracts, and District Off
cials had expected a salvage re-
turn on some Of the projects
would be enough to offset cor
responding loss on the others. But
the aggregate low bid was $22.555.
To Reject All Bids.
The officials decided they would
have to reject all bids opened for
the demolition and removal of the
old Smallwood School, street be-
tween Third and Fourth streets
S.W.; old Logan School. south
west corner of Third and G streets
NE, and the old Brightwood
School, Georgia avenue and Pea
body street NV.
In the case of the Logan build
ing it was noted the Board OF
Education might want to recon-
slider its request to raze the struc-
ture for playground purposes
since only 5000 square feet OF
play space are involved and the
funds required for razing are
substantially greater than was
anticipated.
A report by Paul Chalupsky
property survey officer. noted that
''it is a we'll known fact that
empty structures invite large
scale vandalism and are a con-
stant menace to public safety and
morals"
Act10n In Otner SdScS.
In the cases of the other struc-
lures, it was decided that the
$1,355 cost of razing abandoned
structures on the site of the pro-
posed Syphax School Playground,
Half street between N and o
streets S.W., and $3.50 for the
demolition of the old Wallach
Elementary School could be
charged to appropriations for re-
pairs and maintenance of school
buildings and grounds.
Demolition of 81 dwellings on
the site of the proposed new
Logan School Playground. Third
and G streets NE. at a cost of
1886 could be charged to the
schools capital outlay appropria-
ton, as we'll as 1855 for razing
the old Tyler Elementary School
and adjacent dwellings in the
TOO block of Eleventh street Sc,
according to the plans.
Mr.. Chalupsky recommended
the Commissioners consider sale
Of the Smallwood and Logan
School properties, subject to ap-
proval by the Board Of Education.
The Brightwood building was
abandoned for public school pur-
poses in 1880 and has been used
since as warehouse by the Dis
trict repair shop. Since about
half of the land area is within
the boundary Of the proposed
Fort Drive parkway. it was rec
commended that consideration be
given to transferring jurisdiction
to the Federal Government for
appropriate disposition by the
Office of National Capital Parks.

the get-together before the end of

He listed off hand some Of the

Among these are the AFL. CIO

ington Board of Trade, the Junior
Board Of Trade, women's clubs,
the Federation Of Citizens As
sociations the Federation of
Civic Associations, the Washington
newspapers and luncheon clubs,
such as the Civilians.
Senator Neely, who supported
the Washington home rule bill
passed May 81 by the Senate only
to be shelved for this session in
the House, renewed his declara-
tions for District suffrage.
He also reiterated his stand for
civil rights but declined to out
line any specific program, saying
he wants to inform himself more
thoroughly first on the issues.
District crime records also came
up, and Senator Nicely commented
that he was appalled," recently to
read reports that the District led
other cities in the number of
felonies in some categories.
Federal Payment Too Low.
On other subjects, he said he is
convinced the Federal Government
is not paying large enough share
of District costs; that he hopes
studies will be made for guidance
of the District Committee on the
city's welfare services and that he
is against daylight saving time,
unless it were made Nationwide.
Reports have been rife that,
shortly after he became chair
man, Senator Nicely would clean
