pickets from place to place fol
short stands.
The refusal to press charges was

Transit Hearings End, ID. {. Enfrant Enjoys
PUG Begins Study Of Fun Day at Akron
Testimony on Service Before Derby Test

The Public Utilities Commits
sion today is studying the testi-
mony offered at several hearings
since last month on the reason
ableness of the Capital Transit
Co.'s services. The hearings ended
yesterday afternoon.
The last witness was Raymond
Sparks. lawyer for the company,
who told the PUG that the COM
ipany has made a good effort to
present to the commission all the
facts and that new buses will be
purchased If and when larger
buses will be permitted under
District regulations. The present
regulations restrict the size of
such vehicles to no more than 35
feet in length and s feet in width.
Cites Awards.
He said none of the company
witnesses contended the service
was perfect but that a good job
is being done. He pointed out
the company had received awards
for maintenance and excellence of
equipment.
Herbert Leeman, president of
the Federation of Citizens Asso-
Citations, in summing up the citi-
zens' side of the hearing. said that
more express buses should be used
in rush hours, and that something
should be done to- relieve the
crowded conditions at Barney Cir
Gle.
He said the company is in need
of new buses, and many of those
now in use should be retired. He
was especially critical of the fumes
from the buses which, he said, are
injurious to the public health. He
charged that the company is using
a cheap grade of oil and gasoline
Asks Shop Inspection.
He said the commission should
make a careful inspection of the
company repair shops to see that
the buss are put in proper condi-
ton and asked that the members
of the commission ride the buses
and see for themselves.
/ Thomas B. Scott, 4100 w street
NV, a former president of Glover
Park Citizens Association, also
complained of the gasoline odors
and said the company should gel
new buses.
Thomas L. DodSon, of the labor
committee of the District Branch
of the National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People
said the manpower could be solved
if the company hired colored oper-
ators on the streetcars and buses

"Ronnie," as ne is known to his
playmates, was taken to Gallinger
Hospital when his foot began to
swell after a nail from a neigh

his left ankle last week. He was
transferred to Children's Hospi-
tai. where large amount of dead

On Monday, conventional ther-
mometerS calibrated to lot de-
grees, were useless. Special ther-
mometers showed why-his tenn
perature was 107.5. Despite medi-
cal care, it was we'll above LOG

penicillin and other drugs were
administered in an effort to break
the fever. Finally DR.. Rose and
his associates succeeded. Then
they were able to operate and
remove gangrenous tissue from
his foot.
Mr.. and Mrs. Harris have two
other boys, 5-year-old Michael

Sheriff Declares
He Watched Nelson
Since Taking Office

Charles E. Nelson, a numbers
game flnancier. didn't make "a
couple of hundred thousand dol
lars" during the present law en-
forcement regime in Prince
Georges County. Md, its chiefs
vowed today.
Nelson, a gentleman farmer,
horse breeder and North Beach
arcade operator who lives at
Ritchie, Md, yesterday gave the
Senate Crime Investigating Com
mittee an estimate of his worth
and reluctantly admitted he
thought it came from the num-
bers business.
But he declared his only role
was that of a financial backer.
With the admission, Chairman
O'Conor made it clear he expects
local authorities to follow up the
disclosure of a multimillion-dol-
lar numbers racket in his home
State.
Can't Get Evidence.
Prince Georges law enforcement
heads made it equally clear to-
Iday that Nelson has been under
their surveillance since they took
office.
But it is not what's general
knowledge that makes a case"
said Sheriff Carlton G. Beall. "It
is what you know. You must
have the proof. If you try and
then miss, you've upset the apple
lcart.
1--WE been trying to make case
against Nelson ever since I took
office, shortly after the first of the
year. My deputies and myself
have spent a great deal of time on
lit, but we've found it impossible
to get enough evidence to bring
Nelson into court, partly-or per-
haps chiefly-because he had so
many front men.
Trailed Six Months.
Nelson had moved his head
quarters out of Prince Georges
when I moved into Office"
Prince Georges Police Chief F.
Allen Richards declared he has
been ION Nelson's trail for the
last six months.
THE efforts of the county po-
lice department to get evidence
against him have been intensified
during the last month"

Un-American Probers
To Consider Quizzinq
Dr.. Condor on Loyalty

The House Un-American Activ-
ities Committee may decide soon
whether it will ask DR.. Edward U.
Condor to appear in defense of
the long-debated question of his
loyalty.
DR.. Condor yesterday resigned
as director of the Bureau of
Standards to become research and
development director of the Corn
ing Glass Co. after September 80.
For more than three years the
expert on atomic matters has been
attacked by the House committee
as a poor security risk. These
charges have been denied by the
physicist.
Praised for Work.
In letters released by the White
House yesterday he told President
Truman he was resigning fo1
financial reasons. In a sympa-
thetic letter the President praised
DR.. Condor for his work as
director since 1945, and pointed
particularly to the directors 10y
atty"
Two Of DR.. Condon's critics
Representatives Velde and Vail
Republicans, of Illinois imme-
diately issued statements assert
ing that the House committee had
been "vindicated" by the resigna-
ton. Mr.. Velde said he thought
DR.. Condor should appear before
the committee to complete the
record of that group.
Offered to Reopen Probe.
They pointed out that Secretary
or Commerce Sawyer, in a letter
to Mr.. Velde. offered to reopen the
loyalty investigation of DR.. Con-
don If the committee offered any
new evidence.
Referring. to that letter, the two
Representatives said:
I'VE, believe that the mutual
expressions of Mr.. Condor and
President Truman represent an eff
tort to cover up the real cause of
separation which is made apparent
by the foregoing. His resignation
under fire is too significant to
justify in the assigned reasons y
Mr.. Velde said he would hold in
abeyance his suggestion that DR.
Condor be called before the COM
mittee until Chairman Wood
Democrat, of Georgia returns tc
the city.

Senate Action
On Home Rule
District Committee
Backs Compromise
Bill After Hearing
By Don S. Worren

The compromise bill for Wash
1ngton home rule now is before
the Senate. where early action will
be sought.
The Senate District Committee
yesterday filed a favorable report
on the bill, after four hours of
additional testimony on the sub
stitute plan.
The report was filed long before
the testimony of yesterdays hear
ing was transcribed, but it carried
out decision reached on August
by the District Committee or
oering the bill to the Senate.
Senator Kefauver, Tennessee
Democrat, head of the Home Rule
Subcommittee. and Senator Case,
ranking Republican member, said
they found nothing in yesterdays
testimony that persuaded them
there should be any major change
in the bill.
To See Time Allotment.
Sponsors said they will consult
early next week with Majority
Leader Mcfarland to see when
time can be allotted to the bill.
The bill was given push yes
terday by Senator Taft, Republi-
can. OF Ohio. who is chairman of
the Senate Republican Commit
tee. He urged passage of the bill,
although he suggested some
changes. One of these was that it
would be better to have some
President-appointed members of
the proposed city council to rep
resent Federal interests rather
than a mayor appointed by the
President as chief city executive. |
Colladay Protests.
A claShing view was offered by
Edward F. Colladay, speaking for
the Board of Trade. He reiterated
the trade body stand that local
suffrage. without District repre-
sentation in Congress, would re-
suit in an intolerable conflict be-
tween the local and national gov
ernments.
Mr.. Colladay said the compro-
mise plan would amount to a re-
version to a type of government
tried 80 years ago and abandoned.
He praised the present commits
sion form as the best for the Ma
tional Capital.
The revised bill calls for an
all-elected city council of IS mem
bers. nominated by wards but
elected by city-wide voting: an
elected f1ve-member school board, !
and an elected but non-voting Dis
trict delegate in the House.
81 Witnesses Appear.
There were more than 81 wit
nesses yesterday. Most of them
gave at least general approval to
the revised bill. Among these were
District Commissioner F. Joseph
Donohue and a spokesman for the
Washington chapter of Americans
for Democratic Action.
Among those objecting to the
bill were Clifford H. Newell. past
president of the Federation of
Citizens Associations; Bernard
Lucas of the Citizens Forum of
Columbia Heights; Marvin M. Nc
Lean. president of the Brookland
Citizens Association; Jack Dalton
OF a taxicab insurance company, i
and William L. Mackey for the
