Building Laborers
Vote on Red Issue

The heaviest turnout in the his
tory of Local IA, AFL Building
Laborers' Union, went to the polls
yesterday to decide whether an
admitted former Communist would
be retained sits president.
Henry Thomas, who last De-
|cember told the House Committee
|on Un-American Activities he had
been a Red for more than 10 years,
was engaged in a three-cornereG
fight for top post in the 3,000-man
union. His opponents were Leroy
Coad and Frank Kimbrow.
Counting Of the votes still was
going on at Laborers' Hall, 523 New
Jersey avenue NV, at a late hour
last night.
Leader of the strongest anti
Thomas faction is Thomas G.
Sampler, secretary treasurer of the
local, who was up for reelection
on the Kimbrow ticket. He tried
|unsuccessfully to wrest control of
the union from Mr.. Thomas in a
bitter fight last fall. Mr.. Sampler
also is a former Red.
The issue of Communism, past
and present. pervaded this years
campaigning. According to Mr..
Thomas, Sampler adherents dis
tributed literature denouncing him
and expressing doubt that he had
made a clean break with the Com
!munist Party.

Transit Radio Firm May Hold
Bag for $4,000 in Receivers

Financially speaking, the people
who have the greatest stake in
Fridays decision of the Court of
Appeals outlawing commercial
broadcasts on Washington buses
and streetcars are the 81 stock
holders of Washington Transit
Radio, Inc.
According to Ben Strouse, presi-
dent and a major stockholder of
the company. the corporation is
holding the bag right now to the
tune of about $4,000 worth of
radio receivers, presently installed
in $50 vehicles of the Capital
Transit Co.
If the Court of Appeals decision
is upheld by the Supreme Court
and if. as most observers predict,
the ban on radio advertising spells
the end of the programs alto
gether, Mr.. Strouse predicts that
"there'll be a lot of receivers for
sale cheap"
i9 Stockholders in Area.
The company official said that
Washington Transit Radio, Inc,
lis almost entirely local organi-
|zation, with 10 Of its stockholders
living in the Washington area.
It's affiliation with the national
Transit Radio Co. is a loose one,
he said.
The original equipment was
bought from the national organi-
zation. It supplied advice to the
local company and, of course,
maintains lively interest in the
legal proceedings here. It is no
secret that the courts decision
has Transit Radio shaking in it's
boots in more than a score of
cities. The Washington company
is also a small stockholder in the
national organization.
The legal battle is of interest
also to the Capital Transit Co.
which has derived a small but
promising return from the radio
deal. According to Mr.. Strouse,
the transit company at present
receives guaranteed payments of
5000 a year for permitting tho
sets to be installed in it's vehicles.
Prospects Were Interesting.
Prospects of future returns
now somewhat dimmed-had been
interesting. Under the terms of
the contract between Capital
Transit and Transit Radio, the
payoff could be made either on the
minimum guarantee basis or on a
percentage of the gross income de-
rived from the sale Of advertising.
Up until the court decision, officials
of the radio company predicted
a rosy future, with advertisers
clamoring for the chance to make
their pitch to a guaranteed audi
ence.
The third party involved IN the

picture is Radio Station WWDC,
whose FM broadcasts provide the
listening fare for the riding pub
lie. The companies are separate,
although Mr.. Strouse happens to
be vice president and manager of
the station as well as president of
Transit Radio, Inc.
What the radio station stands
to lose if the transit ban is up
held is problematical. The present
arrangement is that the station
pays Transit Radio a proportion
of it's advertising revenues during
the hours when the transits radios
are in operation. So far, no one
has gotten rich on the deal. One
official guessed that if the ban is
upheld, it might mean the aban-
donment of the stations FM opera
ton. which might save the station
money.

BY Harold B. Rogers

District rent control and the

Ito introduce a rent control
measure.

for the next fiscal year, beginning
July l. will come before the House
Appropriations Committee Tues

Said to have been cut to about
$l37 million by the Bates appro-
Ipriations subcommittee, the Dis
trict budget is understood to be
barely in balance with prospective
revenues. District officials warned
during recent executive hearings
that new taxes might be necessary
