major failure of the sewer. This
will send more sewage overflow
out.
Within two months, there will
be an additional load on the Rock
Creek trunk line, since arrange
|ments have been made to take
care of sewage from Rockville.
Doubles Original Plans.
The District sewer system, of
which the Rock Creek trunk is
part, was designed on recommen-
dation of a Sanitary Engineering
Board appointed by President
Harrison at the direction of Con-
gress in 1889.
At that time, the design was
based on the needs of a popula-
ton Of 500, 900 persons. The sys-
tenn now handles a population
over the million mark.
The District extended its system
to take in Maryland sewage under
an agreement in 1924. This was
authorized in 1917 by an appro-
priation act. The provision was
| to protect streams through Federal
parks and reservations in the Dis
trict from pollution coming from
bordering Maryland towns ano
villages.
Officials explained that no sew
age treatment plant could remove
all the pollution from sewage. To
prevent the drainage from Mary
lands three principal watersheds
from entering the park streams. il
was channeled into the District
sewage system.
The 1924 agreement called FOL
maryland to pay 81 per housing
unit served. In fiscal 1851, tha
came to $2O,500. The rate wa'
considered equitable until 1888
when the District built its sew
age disposal plant.
The cost Of that plant placed
a heavier burden on the District
mot shared by Maryland. Heavy
population increases increased the
load and necessitated expansion
Now a new agreement has been
prepared which District officials

hope to enter into with the Wash
ington Suburban Sanitary Com
mission. It will raise the rate
from Maryland to $1.50 for the
present. That rate will prevail
until the District can install
metering stations.

Contempt Action
Taken Up Against
Warning and Simkins

The District grand Jury Is
considering, after four months,
the Senate's contempt citations
against gambling figures Emmitt
Warning and Roger (Whitetop)
SimkinS.
Assistant United States Attorney
William Becker began presenting
the cases to the jury yesterday.
The two were cited after they
refused to answer questions put
by the Senate District Crime Com
mittee. which winds up its investi-
cation of rackets and law enforce
ment here this month.
Both claimed their constitu-
tional privilege against self-in-
elimination. They appeared last
January as the committee sought
to link top racketeers with police.
SimkinS, colored, identified as
operator Of a big numbers syndi-
cate here. wouldn't tell the Sena-
tors whether he knew various
police officers. He also declined to
say whether he had ever given
any gifts to police.
Warning, who appeared on jan
uary II, refused to answer similar
questions. He wouldn't tell what
his business was, or answer f1nan-
cial questions, claiming he was
under investigation by the Bureau
of Internal Revenue on an in
come tax case. This was the same
basis used by former Police Chief
Robert j. Barrett in refusing to
tell the committee anything about
his financial affairs.
