FTC Brings Charges
AGAINST Hair Clinic Here

A Washington hair and scalp
firm has been accused by the
Federal Trade Commission Of
misrepresenting its products in
advertisements.
The charge was denied by the
company, Hair & Scalp Clinic,
Inc, which has Offices in the
Bond Building.
The FTC challenged claims
that use of the company's prep
arations and treatments would
prevent badness as we'll as vari-
Gus scalp disorders. While deny
ing the advertisements were
misleading, the company said it
had revised them and discon-
tinued use of virtually all the
advertisements objected to by
the FTC.
The company's answer to the
charge also said that Ray w.
Plasterer, president, no longer is
referred to as a "trichologist."

Ruling on Bullock
May Bring Plea for
Pension Law Change

The Commissioners may ask
Congress for a broader pension
law as a result of Fridays court
decision granting retirement pay
to former Police Inspector Albert
1. Bullock.
Commissioner Renah H. CANA
lier said last night that while he
was not referring specifically to
the Bullock case, the city heads
will recommend, II necessary,
specific legislation so that those
convicted of transgressing the
rules of the department for
which they work" would not re-
ceive pensions.
Bullock was dismissed by the
Commissioners after a trial
board found him guilty on Au-
gust Is of insubordination, con-
duct prejudicial to the good or
der of the Police Department,
and failure to file District in
come tax returns for three years.
Judge Alexander Holtzof of
the United States District Court
for the District of Columbia
ruled that Bullock was entitled
to q pension retroactive to Feb
ruary IL, 1852, the date on which
he first applied for retirement.
The judge said that on that date
Bullock met all the requirements
for a pension. T.
Mr.. Camalier, speaking on
Radio Station WWDC's Report
to the People," said the matter
of changes in the pension law
came up last year, and at that
time some members of the House
and Senate District Committees
expressed interest in changing
the law. At that time, the pen
sion of former Police Chief Rob-
ert j. Barrett was under dis
cuSSion.

D. {. Heads Pressed
For Stand C,Iearinq
Southwest Project

Redevelopment Land Agency
officials are pressing the District
Commissioners for brief policy
statement which should clear
the way for Federal funds to
plan a second Southwest rede-
velopment project.
Several weeks ago, the land
agency requested a $350,000 ad-
vance from the Housing and
Home Finance Agency to plan
the so-called Area C redevelop-
ment project.
Under law, however, city Off
cials must show that they are
doing all they can to improve
housing and wipe out slurns by
regulation before Federal re-
development funds can be avail
able.
RIA Director John R. Searles,
jr., said the "last thing to be
done" in connecting with the
HHFA application is to submit
the Commissioners statement.
He said he requested it more
than a month ago, and urged
again last week that it be fur
nished.
The statement presumably
would outline the city heads
current drive to strengthen en-
forcement measures and find
new ways to attack slums.
"BaSically the housing agency
is looking for progress in cities
and I think we definitely are
making progress here" Mr..
SearleS said.
Project Area c consists of
about 165 acres near the Po-
tomac River water front. It's
boundaries are Maine avenue
on the west, I street on the
north, P street on the south

south of Project B, where plans

Legislators Favor
Stricter Virginia
Laws on Drivers
By the Assooiatsd Press

RICHMOND, Oct. 1O.-A legis-
lative study committee recon-
mended today that Virginia law
be amended to provide for the
impoundment of automobiles
owned by persons caught driving
after their licenses have been
suspended or revoked.
Cali too frequently" the Vir-
ginia Advisory Legislative Coun-
Gil Committee said, drivers
whose licenses have been sus-
pended continue to drive not
Withstanding.
"Impoundment of the motor
vehicle in such cases would be
an additional means of discour-
aging this and effective to keep
such unsafe drivers off the road.
The courts should be per-
mitted to employ this sanction
when, in their discretion, it is
necessary.
The report, submitted to Gov.
Battle after a STUDY authorized
by the 1852 General Assembly,
also : suggested several other
amendments to the State code
designed to strengthen the Vir-
ginia Motor Vehicle Safety Re-
sponsibility Law.
At present, the law lays down
minimum standards of financial
responsibility which the owner of
a motor vehicle must meet
either through insurance or per-
sonal funds-before being al
lowed to operate an automobile
The committee recommended:
l. That the owner OF a vehicle,
as well as the actual operator of
vehicle involved in an accident,
be made subject to the security
sections of the law.
prior to 1948," the report said,
"the owner of vehicle involved
in an accident was required to
post security for the payment of
judgments resulting from the &C
cident and give proof of financial
responsibility, along with the op-
orator, if his license plates were
not to be suspended. This was
amended in 1948 to make these
provisions inapplicable to the
owner as we'll as the operator.
If the owner is also under the
act, he will be more careful as
to who operates his car. :, :"
2. That the minimum bodily
injury liability coverage required
be increased from $4,000 for
each accident to $4,000 and
from $4,000 to $4,000 for each
person injured.
''The change in the value OF
the dollar and the cost of living
since enactment of our law has
been clearly reflected in sizable
increase in the average verdict
for personal injuries" the COM
mittee explained.
8. That the section of the code
relating to punishment of persons
caught driving after their licenses
have been revoked or suspended
be amended to bring it into line
with the second offender" speed
law enacted by the 1852 General
Assembly.
4. That the Division of Motor
Vehicles take steps to publicize
the requirements of the financial
responsibility law SO that State
drivers will be aware of what is
required of them.

Kronheim Receives
Letter in Wage Case,
Disqua|ifies Himself

Municipal Judge Milton S.
Kronheim yesterday disqualified
himself as trial judge in the
pending case of Nine. Louise
Bruno, modiste and "color psy-
chologist" charged with violating
the minimum wage law.
The judge acted after receiv-
ing a letter from a Baltimore
woman. He said he felt he
might have become prejudiced
after reading the communica-
ton, which, he said, was docu-
mented by an inclosed letter
from a former Baltimore attor-
ney.
Nine. Brune, who dresses some
of Washington's most noted fig
ures, is charged with failing to
pay minimum wages, failure to
keep a time record of employees
and keeping inaccurate records
at her Dupont Circle establish
ment. She faces trial Thursday.
Judge Kronheim said the letter
he received was "couched in very
vigorous terms" and told of a
financial dispute between the
Baltimore woman and the dress
maker.
Nine. Bruno created furry
in Municipal Court earlier this
month when she failed to appear
for scheduled trial. The excuse
given by her attorney was that
she was engaged in fitting Mrs.
Richard M. Nixon, wife Of, the
Vice President.
Bondsman Max Weinstein fin-
ally brought her into court three
hours later after Judge Kron-
helm had threatened forfeiture
of Nine. Brune's $500 bond.
