GOVERNOR SIGNS |. HAIR SEAL BOUNTY
 ACT, 0pINl0N

Giving his opinion that an unWlse policy has developed in the payment of bounties on hair seal as part of a program of predator control, Gov Gruening has signed House Bill No. 82 because, he stated in a letter o1 transmittal to Secretary of Alaska Lew M. Williams, it reduces to s the bounty on the hair seal, which otherwise would remain at $6, and because it limits the geograhical area within which hair seal may be taken for bounty.
 The Governor also stated If the hair seal bounties do not aid in the conservation of the fishery but pro- vide instead a Territorially subsidiz- ed business, benefitting no one but the bounty claimants, the bounty should in my judgment be discon- tinued."

project was awarded to the Jo-
seph B. Bahen Construction Co
for $259,996.
The total estimated cost of Park
wood stiIl will be about $11,00C

-ButtonP Parking GorogetoO OpenHere

The worlds only fully-auto-
matte. push-button parking ga
rage is almost ready for test
runs in a new 16-story building
at 1926 e street NV.
If the garage operates accord
ing to plan, it will be the near
est thing to sky hook yet de-
vised for the weary motorist who
has circled the block so often
there seems nowhere to go ex-
cept up. The garage is ex-
pected to open September Is.
The Capitals tallest, narrow
est and newest building was de-
signed around two high-speed,
automatic elevators, which car
ry remote-controlled dollies for
pushing cars into parking stalls
fore and aft.
Automobiles are to be re-
trieved in the same manner,
with no human hands at the
wheels, or feet to kick the throt-
ties and brakes up and down
ramps.
The ground floor is the in
and-out section, which contains
a control panel and lone op-
orator. The elevators will store
four cars on each of Is floors
above and three below street
level-72 in all.
The owner leaves his car in
the entrance lane, locking igni-
ton and doors If he wishes, but
with brakes released and gears
in neutral. Parking stalls slope
downward from the elevators to
prevent run-offs.
A dollie rolls under the car
and patented stops lift up in
front and behind. Hydraulic
pressure brings them against
the bumpers and the dollie pulls
the automobile on it's own
wheels into the elevator.
Meanwhile, the control panel
shows green lights for the va
cant stalls. The operator
merely presses the proper button
to effect delivery. A numbered
check protruding from beneath
the selected light will be torn
three ways-one stub for the
owner one for the car and one
for Identification when the
owner pays his fee.
The building was erected by
the Parking Services, Inc, Of
which A. G. Dezendorf is presi-
dent. The total cost was around
100000, including some $4,000
for elevators and Park o Mat
machinery patented by a Cali
fornia inventor.
Mr.. Dezendorf. who operated
one of the first parking lots in
Washington, and since has de-
veloped a number of parking
garages here. believes the device
is ideal for downtown hot
spots." especially at locations
where the turnover is brisk.
He estimates cars can be
parked or returned to their
owners in some so seconds. The

present building occupies a space
only 25x72 feet, with an entrance
from K street and an exit
through an alley at the rear.
Mr.. Dezendorf says similar
units can be spotted in cramped
quarters throughout downtown
Washington, and would afford
a more economical solution to
the parking problem than large
concentrations in any one place.
Even with the cooperation
of District authorities, Mr..
Dezendorf said. it took two
years to obtain a building per-
NIT because so many regula-
tions had to be changed,
waived or created to fit the
case.
For instance. there will be no
human occupancy above the
ground floor or in the basement.
no heating plant, no windows
or fire escapes.

Legis|ativeCommi
Backs Model Charter
Bill for Virginia
BY the Associated Press

| RICHMOND, Va. Aug. is
Support for an abbreviated mode
charter bill specifying the genera
power of localities of various
classes. drew support yesterday
from members of an interim leg
islative committee.
The proposed bill also would
provide a reservoir" of power
that a specific locality could dip
into, If it desired. without a char
ter change through the General
Assembly.
Support for such a bill was ex-
pressed at a public hearing Of the
Committee of the Virginia Ad-
visory Legislative Council study
ing methods of cutting the num-
ber of local. special and private
bills presented to the General
Assembly each session.
Objection to a model charter
bill was expressed in statement
submitted by E. N. Wilkinson
Suffolk city manager. on behalf
of a committee of the League OF
Virginia Municipalities.
But some of the objections be-
gan to be dissipated as the VALC
group explained precisely what il
had in mind.
Powers Undisturbed.
w. F. Stone, Martinsville city
attorney and member Of the
VALC committee that first pre-
sented the model charter plan
said the proposed legislation
would not take away any Of the
powers now held by the localities
under their existing charters"
The model charter, he explained
would not contain any specific
governmental setup that would
have to be followed. It would
merely set forth such basic items
as the taxing powers and leave
the rest of the local rules to be
enacted by ordinances.
why should the Legislature
have to worry about whether
Richmond employees should live
in the city or not?" he asked. 1--WE
don't know and are not in any
position to know whether they
should or not. That is a matter
for local decision"
In general, such a law would
not change the governing pattern
of the localities so long as their
rules do not conflict with the
Constitution or with general law
passed by the Assembly, Mr.. Stone
explained.
Uniformity Urged.
He said there is no reason VIII,
rules Of evidence or condemnation
proceedings should not be uniform
throughout the States localities.
Nor, he added, should Roanoke
be the only locality with authority
to impose a sales tax. All of the
localities of the same population
class should have it even if they
do not want to use the power.
The objections of the League
were drawn up by committee
complosed of Mr.. Wilkinson, Johr
Donaho, Richmond budget direc.
tor; Mrs. Florence Cannon, Arl.
ington County Board chairman
Richmond City manager Sher.
wood Reeder; j. j. Nichols, mayor
OF Vienna; Elliott Drinard, Rich
mond city attorney, and John B
Oliver. Bedford town attorney.

He agreed, however, that he had
expressed dissatisfaction with the
performance of policemen who
had failed to make even one arrest
a day.
Members of the police depart
ment said that under the previous
policy they did not make arrests
for speeding when cars were
travelling at less than 10 miles
above the limit. This margin has
been reduced to miles, they said
After testing motorcycles with
tWo-way radios and finding them
satisfactory, the department has
ordered six. Five went into serv-
ice yesterday.

equipment on the motorcycles

Relatively low ceilings were
allowed to permit Is floors
within a 140-foot elevation
above ground. This heighth was
a relaxation of the 110-foot
limit generally applied down.
town.
Mr.. Dezendorf got his idea
from figuring that he could
park 648 cars in the Washing
ton Monument and still use
only 400 feet of the 555-foot
structure.
Later, he saw a motion pic
ture of the Californian's inven-
ton for automatically moving
cars on and off elevators.
The inventor, it was said, got
his idea for the car grips from
watching his wife being fitted
for a new pair of shoes with
measuring stops which folded
up automatically when not
pressed against heel and toes.

Cooperation of the Arlington
public In a "stricter observance of
speed limits" has been requested
by the county police department.
Carlisle Johnstone, director OF
public safety, said yesterday that
police will enforce speed limits
more rigidly than in the past.
He cited a statement by Gov.
Battle earlier this week that the
rising number of traffic accidents
is result of speeding,
This is not a breakdown on
the public nor a contest among
police officers" Mr.. Johnstone
said, "but it is definitely a general
Tightening up of our enforcement
procedure"
Mr.. Johnstone denied a report
that he had issued orders to police
to increase the number of traffic
arrests by 10 per cent.
