From TaIow Factory
Fails in Court Action

ment and officers of the Hopfen-
maier Co., $500 K street NV.
were to get together today in ar
effort to devise some means Of
eliminating the odors that ema.
nate from the company's tallow-

given the plant to remedy the
complaint.
Health authorities conceded
they had not given written no.
|tice to the company during those

peatedly during the past severa,
years.
Georgetown residents also havt
been complaining about the odorl
for a long time and last October
more than 100 irate citizens me
with Assistant Corporation Coun
sci Clark King in the Municipa
Court. The company, at that time
said it was doing everything il
its power to stop the odors ant
had contracted with an out-of
town firm to supply machiner,
that would eliminate them. TIL
company was given until thi
spring to remedy the condition
and when the odors still persisted
court action was taken.
The court case began Tuesday
and at that time William H. Cary
jr., director, and DR.. Fredericl
Goldman of the Public Healtl
Engineering Bureau. testified the,
visited the plant last Monday an,
that they could smell the odor
half block away. They testifie,
that the floors, walls and machin
cry were in bad condition.
After Judge Myers had dis
missed rhs case. he called to tn
bench Assistant Corporation
ICounsels John H. Baumgarten an,
George F. Donnella and Attorne
Alvin L. Newmyer, representin
the company, and told them +
