Accident Investigation Unit
Marks 10Th Year of Work

with tape measures, cameras and
drawing board. by which the
unit produces an accurate rec
ord of what happened in a traffic
accident-a record that usually
stand up in court.
The AIU had a shoestring be-
ginning, with makeshift equip
ment and three automobiles, op-
Grated by three sergeants, 35
privates and one civilian. Today's
staff is not much larger, but it is
made up of one lieutenant, two
sergeants. 20 privates, 3 corporals,
two detectives, three motorcycle
policemen and three clerks. They
still work in six cars.
The unit tries to cover every
traffic accident involving injuries
and as many more as is humanity
possible. Before 1910, traffic deaths
were handled by the Homicide
Squad.
Expert Work Praised.
Now there are experts such as
Pvt. Charles v. Turner, whose
accurately scaled sketches of acci-
dents have been praised by judge
and coroner, and Pvt. George w.
Tenley, whose weekly statistics
keep police and public posted on
where and how accidents are
occurring.

the Accident Investigation Unit

It was at that time a decade

tective sergeant. was given 38 men
and told to set up machinery for
getting all the vital statistics on
traffic accidents.
Today, with the areas popu-

more automobiles registered in

The AIU has participated in an
enyiable Traffic Department rec
ord, which shows 260 fewer acci-
dents last year than the 13,159 OF
1910, ana eight fewer fatalities
than that years II.
More directly, the unit has had
a big hand in a 800 per cent in
crease in negligent homicide and

1910.

Bill Filed 10 Restore
Hotel Rent Controls

Restoration of rent controls on
Washington hotels was proposed
In a bill introduced late yester-
day by Chairman Neely of the
Senate District Committee.
He said he was moving to pre-
vent "any possible trend toward
gouging."
He offered his bill after dis
covering that increases had been
adopted recently by several hotels,
including the one where he and
one Of his committee aides live.
There seemed no prospect OF
Senate action on the measure
now, just before the Congressional
recess, but some officials expect
the question will be revived be-
fore the end Of the year, assum-
ing that the 81st Congress meets
again after the November elec-
tions.
In fact, some on Capitol Hill
are expecting the whole question
Of continuation Of national and
District rent controls will be
raised in November, If the war
situation is not eased. Under pres
ent law, national controls would
end. on December 81 and the
Districts separate law. on January
81.
Under the Neely bill, which was
referred to the District Commit
tee for consideration, hotel rates
now decontrolled, would be rolled
back to levels of June "A, the day
before Communist armies swept
into South Korea.
During the past two weeks
Senate District Committee officials
discovered prices at one hotel were
advanced so and 81 a day. AT
another, 1t was said the price was
advanced 81 on a $40 room. A third
hotel, it was said, has imposed nc
general increase but has put
residential suites on day-to-day
basis at advanced rates.

The owner admitted he had
been convicted in District Court
of accepting bets and had been
placed on probation by Judge

of the poolroom business on Ninth
street.
Murdock said he plans to give
up his business and has a probable
purchaser. He asked the board to
hold up its decision until the sale
has been completed.
Capt. Howard v. Covell, COM

The body of John Wilkes Booth
should be exhumed to determine
once and for all whether it was
the right or the left leg that was
broken.
This demand for re-examina-
ton of the evidence was made last
night by the grandson of the man
who was sentenced to life i'm
prisonment for aiding the escape
of Lincoln's assassin by setting
the leg.
Col. Richard D. Mudd, M. D., the
grandson believes it would show
the military tribunal did not have
convicting evidence when they
found DR.. Samuel A. Mudd guilty
and sentenced him to life i'm
prisonment. He was pardoned by
President johnson in 1869.
Ford's Theater Jammed.
It was the lack of such evidence
that Col. Mudd stressed last night
in his talk before the Columbia
Historical Society at Ford's Thea
ter, 511 Tenth street NV, the
scene Of the assassination.
His talk packed the place. It
was possibly the biggest drawing
card since the attendance of
President Lincoln was advertised
on the occasion of Laura Keene
playing in Our American Cousin"
on April IA, 1865. the night Of
the assassination.
Col. Mudd's contention was
that it was never legally proved
that Booth stopped at his grand
fathers house the next day. The
military prosecutor relied greatly
on left-foot riding boot found
in the Mudd home on what is now
Route 5 south of the District line
in Maryland. 1t had been slit
open and had 81. Wilkes" written
inside. 1t is now in the museum
in the Old Ford Theater Building.
His grandfather was never
asked whether it was the left or
the right leg Of the man who
called himself Tyson" that he
set in splints. And there was no
legal identification of Tyson" as
Booth, the speaker said. because
through error, the military in
vestigators showed DIR. Mudd a
