DeIeted From Budget
Pending Study

The Commissioners today re-
stored their budget request for
funds to start building the next
institution for the Districts wards
at the Children's Center in Laurel.
Md.
Money for construction had
been deleted from the pending
budget pending study by sub
committee of the Addison Public
Works Committee on whether 1t
was necessary.
The subcommittee did recon-
mend 1t and its report was sent
to the budget Office for renewed
consideration.
Hear From Fowler.
Today. the Commissioners heard
a report from Budget Officer WAL
ter Fowler recommending restora-
ton of the full item for construc-
ton of the new institution.
Previous estimates of the cost
have exceeded $3.5 million. Under
current budget procedure, the full
cost is requested and then part of
the money is allotted for use the
first year of building. That part
is expected to exceed 81 million.
The restoration move was fore
cast last night by Engineer
Commissioner Bernard L. Robin

port" over Station WMAL-TV.
At the same time, Commissioner
Renah F. Camalier gave the build
ing project his wholehearted sup

The institution for which the
$4,000 was appropriated in the

The planning fund was inserted
by special request of the Commits

ationS subcommittee was consider

THE Commissioners action at that
time followed concerted commu-
nifty demands after The Star de-

City Heads Abandon
Plan 10 oPena|izePo PoIice
By Revoking Pensions

The Commissioners today re-
luctantly abandoned efforts to get
law which would give them
power to revoke the pensions of
policemen who refused to testify
before congressional committees
this year.
But they instructed Corporation
Counsel Vernon E. West to draw
up legislation which would give
them authority in future cases to
revoke pensions of any District
employe including policemen.
Efforts to get at the power to
revoke pensions began after for
mer Police Chief Robert j. Bar
rett refused to discuss certain
items of his income with a Senate
Crime Committee. He retired
shortly after this refusal on a
pension of around $4,000 year.
The Citizens Advisory Council
had objected to legislation which
the city heads were considering on
the grounds that it was both class

The council recommended that
any such legislation should in
clude all District employees and
not have retroactive features.
Engineer Commissioner Bernard
L. Robinson commented:
II reluctantly agree with the
councils recommendation. My
reluctance is about the omission
of retroactivity."
Commissioner Donohue said he
also agreed with the council
with equal reluctance. He COM
mented that in today's papers
there was a fine example where
the Mayor of a city had even re-
fused to testify. He was referring
to Mayor John v. Kenny of Jersey

CityHeadsAdopt
New Rules on
D. {. Tenements
Regulations Give
Right Of Entry to
District Inspectors

New regulations governing op-
Grafton of tenement houses were
adopted by the Commissioners to-
day. including a strong clause
giving the right Of entry to Dis
trict inspectors.
The regulations, elimination of
four years work, consist mainly
of a compilation Of all laws per-
tanning to such houses. They are
designed to furnish a standard for
the inspection and supervision of
tenement houses.
The city heads refused to go
along with one suggestion made by
the Citizens Advisory Council.
The council approved the reg
ulations yesterday and recon-
mended the Commissioners do
likewise. One section of the new
regulations requires the police
chief to certify the good moral
character of any one operating a
tC41CAACk1t 4lO0SC.
Urged Standards.
The council recommended that
definite standards be written into
the regulations to guide the police
chief. and that his approval be
based on the applicants record of
for crimes involving
moral turpitude.
Commissioner F. Joseph Dono-
hue commented:
II still have the impression one
may not have a good character
even though he has no convictions
for crimes involving moral turpi-
tude."
Commissioner Donohue said q
conviction Of violating the gam
bling laws did not involve moral
|turpitude, and it was doubtful that
the police chief, under the coun-
ellis suggestion. could deny a IL
|cense.
Mr.. Donohue's views prevailed
and the Commissioners left it
strictly up to the police chief to
decide what constitutes good
character.
Appeals Plan Rejected.
Another council suggestion that
appeals from the police chiefs
decisions be handled by an in
dependent appeals board also was
rejected. But the Commissioners
said that recommendation would
be studied further and indicated
that such an appeals board for all
license matters probably would be
established eventually.
The Commissioners adopted a
council suggestion that whenever
Ia tenement house operator claims
that any portion of the building
lis under control of a tenant, the
District must get permission from
the tenant to make inspections.
IF the tenant refuses. he would
be in violation of the new regula-
Itions.
Effective date of the regulations
was set for March !. 1858.
The regulations have been
sought for some time by the
Health Department principally to
strengthen its hand in combating
Iunsanitary and unhealthy condi-
tions in this type Of housing.

into cows and bulls. It Is rare for
cows or bulls to be counted as pets,
but there are many cases in which
calves have been dear to the hearts
of children on farms.
Calves are fairly large, even at

A Guernsey calf Is likely to weigh

ably will tip the scales at 81 pounds.
The height of newborn Jersey

If they are fed properly, the

The reason is that many players
abuse the convention and, If you
are playing with a strange partner,
his ideas and yours about how to
use the signal might not coincide.
The trouble is that players like
Mr.. Rhule build a whole system
Of defense around the convention,
giving it more Importance even
than its originators intended.
It does not replace all the other
methods of signaling which have
been developed through the years.
It merely supplements them and,
in fact, is usable on relatively few
hands.
A great many good results at
tributed to the Suit-preference sig
nal actually would have been real
lied by good players long before
"suit preference" was ever heard of.
In today's deal Mr.. Rhule, who
plays every convention known to
man, led the king of spades.
Dummy'S ace won and a heart
finesse was taken, won by Mr.
Rhule's king. He cashed the queen
of spades and shifted to a club,
carefully selecting the eight spot.
Mr.. Dale won this trick with the
king of clubs and returned third
spade, Mr.. Rhule rufing for the
setting trick. He Immediately
claimed a great victory for the
suit-preference signals. His lead
of the eight of clubs instead of a
smaller one Che said) asked Mr..
Dale to return the highest side suit,
spades.
That's all right, but, as Mr.. Cham
pion was quick to point out, Mr..
Dale would have returned a spade
no matter which of his small clubs
Mr.. Rhule had led. Privately, Mr..
Dale concurred.
One final thought on suit pref
erence. If you ever get into a
game with a new partner who asks
If you ever play the suit-preference
Signal-watch out.
You may have run into a suit
preference fanatic. My advice is
to tell him that you never heard of
it and that the only signals you
understand are the plain, simple,
old-faShioned ones. You'll save
money.
