hoped to avoid. He saw her, scowled, and
unless Miss Carmody was imagining things,
looked family alarmed. There was nothing
odd about that. Maybe he didn't want to be
thrown down again. Miss Carmody wouldn't
have blamed him much if he had yelled,

Cheap Way 10 DistiII
Salt Wafer Held Need

Economical methods for purify
ing ocean waters would open new
frontiers for the development OF
the whole world, Interior Secre-
tary Chapman said today.
Mr.. Chapman appeared before
special Senate subcommittee to
urge quick passage of bill that
would place the matter of salt
water diStillation and artificial
rainmaking under Government
control.
He argued that the Interior De-
partment should exercise such
control.
Experiments and techniques de-
veloped by the Army and Navy
during World War II, he said
have demonstrated the possibility
of distilling large amounts OF
water from the sea where "cost is
no object" The problem now is
to work out a way to make fresh
water cheaply enough to be useful
in industry and agriculture.
Mr.. Chapman told the Agricul-
ture, Commerce and Interior sub
committee that the problem o1
water shortage has reached great
proportions" particularly in the
Western areas Of the United
States.
If the distilling of salt water or
large scale could be made prac-
tical, he said, "the benefits tx
millions of people that would fol.
low would be incalculable.

gates are expected to tell Soviet
Deputy Foreign Minister Andrei
Gromyko today why they cannot
accept-at least without modifi-
cation-newly worded proposals
he made yesterday for a Big Four
foreign ministers conference.
Mr.. Gromyko reworded two of
the Soviet Unions original sug-
gestions for an agenda and ac-
cepted the Western wording for
a third item concerning German
unity and preparations for a Ger
man peace treaty.
The Western powers were re-
ported certain not to accept the
reworded clauses, although Mr..
Gromyko's latest Offering seemed
to move long way toward the
Vests position.
The deputy foreign ministers OF
Russia, the United States, Britain
and France will meet again today
in their 10th session to try to
reach an agreement on an agenda
Even assuming the deputies
can agree on the wording of the
various items, battle seems to
be shaping up on the order of dis
cussion.
Gromyko's position is that the
deputies should agree first on the
content of items and then talk
about the order. He added that
Russia would insist that demili-
tarization of Germany, under
terms of the Potsdam agreement
must head the list.

AS a result, the tax was set up to-

the District Court for it's approval
to agree to the tax and penalties,

official said. because he had hid

had made during those years in

Substantial Tax Expected.
'"The money was not in the safe

OF cases where gamblers have
secreted sums of money in cash
in their own private homes, it Is
impossible for us to check it.
"AS a result of checking the
La Fontaine returns it was dis
covered that Jimmy La Fontaines S
associate had died subsequent to
1949 and his safe deposit box was
opened and in it was found $780,
600 in cash. Examination at this
moment is being carried on by
our officers and we expect that
there will be substantial tax, pen
alties and interest in that par
ticular case"
Commissioner of Internal Rev.
enue George j. Schoeneman told
the committee, under questioning,
that the Revenue Bureau has no
jurisdiction over any crime other
than violation of the revenue laws.
IF a man like La Fontaine will
violate the laws against gambling
and other things of that type
and all these racketeers do not
hesitate to violate their State
laws" the commissioner said,
then no matter how many laws
we have that require them to
keep books, think you can as
sumo that they will not do it. If
they are going to indulge in gam
bling and so forth, they will not
keep books"

Mr.. Schoeneman told the SUBJ
committee. headed by Represent
ative Gary. Democrat, of Virginia
that the revenue forces had CO.
operated extensively with the SEN
ate committee investigating crime
headed by Senator Kefauver of
Tennessee.
The revenue commissioner took
occasion to reply to statements
made in a Kefauver Committee
report which he felt were unjusti-
fed.
LAS a matter Of fact" Mr..
Schoeneman told the subcommit-
tee on March 8, Il had an op-
portunity to tell Senator Kefauver
yesterday that they had an op-
portunity to make a favorable
comment in regard to us because
we went overheard making avail
able our reports and returns to
them. I was amazed that we did
not get some bouquets instead
of brickbats because they had
an opportunity to see what a tre-
mendous effort our people have
been making to catch up with

Hearing Set on zoning
Northampton Street
Corner 10 Commercial

A request to change a lot at the
northwest corner of Connecticut
avenue and Northampton street
NV. from apartment house resi-
dental zoning to first commercial
use will be heard by the District
zoning Commission at 10 am.
Monday.
The commission. at that time,
will resume its public hearing on
proposed amendments to the zon-
ing map. which began last Mon
day.
Late yesterday, the body took
under ADJUSTMENT a move to change
the Zoning in an area bounded by
QuackenboS and Tuckerman
streets. between Ninth street and
Georgia avenue NV.
The zoning change from single
family dwelling use to permit con-
version of large one-family homes
into apartments had been sought
also for three squares extending
over to Eighth street, but this part
of the proposal was dropped.
Attorney Marshall j. Seidman,
who said he represents % prop
erty- owners in the area now
covered by the petition, contended
the large homes built in the
neighborhood some 80 years ago
are too big for modern families
and that. from an economic
standpoint, their only feasible
use is as multiple-family homes.
The proposal, which is op-
posed by the zoning Advisory
Council. drew protest from Karl
K. Cover, president of the Bright
wood Citizens Association. A
group of members attending the
hearing backed his statements.
Another case taken under ad-
viSement by the commission
yesterday was a move to change
back to commercial use property
belonging TO Joseph Gentilcore
at the corner of Xenia street and
Nichols avenue S.W.
While Mr.. Gentilcore was in
service in the South Pacific in
1945, the area in which his busi-
ness property was located was re-
zoned to residential use, Attorney
James c. Wilkes told the COM
mission. Mr.. Wilkes said Mr..
Gentilcore did not learn of this
until 1949. when he attempted to
renew a liquor license.
Mr.. Gentilcore said he had
bought the property when it was
zoned commercial, had spent a
large amount of money on it and
feared he would not get back his
investment under residential zon-
ing.
Mr.. Wilkes said those who fear
a liquor license again would be
sought for the property should be
assured this was prohibited by
the fact that it is now too close
to a church.

Simmons, colored, Chicago Tri-
bune political columnist. He told
the Senators he campaigned all
over Maryland for Mr.. Butler and
made Sc speeches in saloons
churches, fields and on street cor
nerS while on the payroll of the
Tribune.
Received Various Sums.
Col. Simmons previously had
been described by Mrs. Ruth Nc
Cormick Miller, editor of the
Washington Times-Herald, as an
"old retainer" of her family. She
said she gave him various sums
during the campaign ranging from
500 to $45 or $50 to help defray
his expenses while he stumped
the Free State.
The Senators, Democrats as well
as Republicans. obviously were
fascinated by the role of Col. SIM
mons as a columnist, Republican
campaign orator in many States,
and at the same time a family
retainer of the McCormicks.
The potency of the elderly
nephew of Booker T. Washington
as an orator and vote-getter was
testified to by the two Democratic
Senators on the subcommittee as
well as by colored political leaders
who watched Col. Simmons at
work in Maryland.
I've heard of you all of my
life" grinned Senator Hennings,
"and I must confess I'm not toe
happy when you come to st. Louis
before the elections"
Col. Simmons, who went to work
for Senator Mark Hanna of Ohio
at the age of IL, told Chairman
Monroney, Democrat, of Okla
homa, that Il have made speeches
in your State, too." Senator
Monroney observed that it was all
right with him if Col. Simmons
passed up Oklahoma In the future
Called Necessities.
Asked who paid his expenses ir
Maryland, Col. Simmons said some
of them came from the Butler
headquarters, adding:
But T call them necessities o1

long years I have been getting
the necessities OF. life from the
hannas and the McCormicks
When necessity knocks at my door
I knock on theirs. There's moth.
ing unusual about getting the
necessities from Mrs. Miller-she's
supposed to do that. And she's
