In Arlington
State, Operating Line
During Strike, Agrees
To Doy-Long Schedule

Beginning today, the Virginia
State-operated Arnold Bus Lines
will furnish service to Arlington
shopping areas throughout the
day.
Robert johnson, managing di-
rector of the Arlington Chamber
of Commerce, said he was in
formed by the State Corporation
Commission that continuous bus
service will be provided on the
strike-bound buslines.
Until now, the State has oper-
ated the buses only between the

said the State now will operate

Chamber Plea Heard.
This action came after the
Chamber of Commerce had
pleaded with Gov. Battle to aid
Christmas shopping in Arling-
tons various business districts.
Businessmen we're being hurt by
the lack of transportation. it was
claimed. A spokesman at the
Governors Office, according to
Mr.. Johnson, declared that the
economic aspects on the COM
munity had not been fully realized
when the service originally was
confined to the rush-hour periods
to get workers to and from their
jobs in Washington.
The State terminates all runs
at the District line. however. and
does not bring the buses into
Washington along the normal
routes.
A spokesman for the State
Corporation Commission at the
bus company said 10 buses would
provide the additional service
between 10 am. and 2 pm.
The State took over the lines
last Wednesday under the Vir-
ginia public utilities seizure law.
Yesterday State police baked
an effort to charter eight buses
of a Washington sightseeing COM
pany because the drivers and
buses were not licensed to operate
in Virginia. Another attempt, to
use buses of the A. B. g. w.
lines, also failed when that COM
pany decided it would be better to
stay out of the muddle.
Hopes for Settlement.
Mr.. Johnson expressed hope
that rising public pressure would
bring settlement of the week.

men could remodel their estab-

Plan for D. {.
Holiday Dec. 26
Proposal Follows
Commissioner DeniuI
Of Extra Day OFF

A Government workers union
official today said he had drawn
up plan which would enable the
Commissioners to give city en-
ployes the day after Christmas off
James A. Campbell, president of
the American Federation of Gov
lernment Employees, said he would
present the plan in writing to
Commissioner F. Joseph Donohue
later today. Only yesterday he
conferred with the Commissioners
and promised to work up a plan.
The commissioners last week
ruled that the Friday after Christ
mas would not be a holiday for
District workers. They said there
were no funds to pay the overtime
wages which would be necessary if
lit were a holiday. Police, f1remen
and certain other workers would
have to report, and if it is a holi-
day would get premium rates.
U. S. Offices to Be Closed.
= President Truman already has
declared the day a holiday for
Federal workers, giving them a
long four-day week end.
Mr.. Campbell said he had found
that in the Police Department
alone some $4,000 has been
saved since October on lapsed SAL
aries-salaries for positions which
are not filled.
Mr.. Campbell did not reveal
details of his plan. But he indi-
Gated he had found sufficient
funds in other city departments
in a similar fashion.
The Commissioners based their
ruling of no Friday holiday on
grounds that the city budget could
not afford the approximately $780,
900 additional bill in premium SAL
aries.
Inspector Clarence Lutz of the
Police Department confirmed that
the department could pay overtime
rates for the men who would be
on duty the day after Christmas.
At yesterdays session with the
Commissioners, Mr.. Campbell
asked permission to get payroll in
formation from the various city
departments. Mr.. Donohue told
him it was perfectly all right as
there was no gag rule in the Dis
trict government.
Took Plea to Truman.
Mr.. Donohue has been piqued
since MIR. Campbell took the plea
for a holiday for District workers
to President Truman.
One District official said the
overtime pay for that day would
run this way:
Police Department, $4,000; Fire
Department. $500; hospitals and
institutions, $4,000; per diem en-
|ployes, $13,500.
Another District official said
that more than 40 per cent Of the
city workers already had applied
for annual leave on the day after
Christmas. So, holiday or not,
the city Offices will be with skele-
ton forces that day apparently.

Police Start

ToFight Crime
Official Order Due;
Donohue Approves
After Hearing Murray

Police today will begin working
extra hours without pay to fight
an upsurge of crime in the Dis
trict.
ALI members of the department
from private to chief-will work
four extra hours week. Some
viii work one extra hour.
Although Police Chief Robert
v. Murphy had not officially issued
a formal order this morning, it
was learned that it would become
effective on all shifts today.
The Policemen's Association
voted unanimously last night
after heated discussion-to up
hold the impending order. Thus,
the policemen have agreed to the
payless duty. Inspector Clarence
Lutz. president of the association,
said, as a service to the public.
Heavy Increase in Crime.
A heavy increase in robberies,
houSebreakingS and purse snatch
ings was responsible for the plan,
police said. It was put forth dur
ing a meeting of precinct cap
taipS yesterday, and approved to-
day by Commissioner F.. Joseph
Donohue. the police commissioner.
All those on the day shift will
work four extra hours each week.
Those on the 4 pm. and midnight
shifts will work one extra hour a
week, it was reported.
Top police officials cited several
reasons for the increase in crime
here.
They said the advent of colder
weather always brings an increase
in crime. The holiday season is
another factor. Linked with those
is an influx of out-of town petty
criminals who are coming into the
District. police said, in advance
of the inaugural ceremonies next
January 20.
Lack Of Manpower Is Factor.
But q major factor-which po-
lice don't like to discuss-is the
serious shortage of policemen and
the knowledge by criminals that
the department is woefully lack
ing in manpower. =
The shortage of policemen also
stems from many factors. The
principal reason is cuts in the
departments budget. Extra money
included in this years budget for
hiring of policemen needed to
bring the force up to normal
strength was slashed by Congress.
The change in annual leave pol
icy also has affected the depart
me1t. Policemen as we'll as other
employees have to take before Jan
uary. 20 leave they have accumu-
lated over past year. Otherwise,
the leave will be lost.
The department has been trying
to allow all men the leave they
have accumulated.
Holiday Policy Changed.
A recent change in the holiday
policy also has affected the man
power situation. Under the new
policy, policemen whose day off
falls on holiday are given an
extra day off during that week.
The extra hours policy may
cut into the outside earnings
of policemen, many of whom
hold extra jobs as guards
and watchmen. The department
has been liberal in allowing police
men to take outside jobs as a
means of supplementing their
pay.
The pay scale has been a sore
spot with the department for some
time. and officials feel that the
present pay hampers their efforts
to recruit policemen.
