Identity Sought Of Boy
FOund Dead in Cafe

Police last night were seeking
the identy of a teen-aged colored
boy who apparently died of a
heart attack while looting q
Southeast restaurant.
The body of the boy. described
as about Is years old, was found
early yesterday by Robert H.
Bowler, A, proprietor of the Egg
and I Cafe at 209 Fourth street
S. w.
Police theorized the boys
heart failed due to over exertion
caused by his struggle to enter
the restaurant through a narrow
ventilating shaft.
On his wrist, police said, the
dead youth wore a white metal
expansion band for a wrist
watch, but no watch. He was
dressed in an Army jacket and
blue jeans.
Coroner A. Magruder Mac.
Donald said he will issue a certi-
fcate of death due to natural
causes.

Transit Dividend
Rise Seen Barring
Pupil Fare Raise

Decision by the Capital Tran
sit Co. to raise it's annual divi-
den rate from $14O to $1.60
apparently has killed plans for
legislation to boost the Scent
school children's fare.
Senator Payne. Republican. of
Maine, chairman of the Com
merce subcommittee of the Sem
ate District Committee, yester-
day virtually washed his hands
of the school fare issue.
GAS as practical matter" he
said. "the higher dividend rate
voted by the company certainly
doesn't help the Scent bills
chances. 1t doesn't add to any
commonsense approach to that
problem"
The same attitude has been
taken by the two other members
of the Payne subcommittee
Republican Senator Barrett of
Wyoming and Democratic Sena-
tor Nicely Of West Virginia.
Barrett Against Raise.
Senator Barrett, former Gov
ernor of his State, who is little
given to expansive remarks, said
THAT action (the boost in COM
pany dividends) wouldn't help
the possibilities of favorable ac-
ton on raising the fare. It
wouldn't help at ALL"
So far the company has found
no sponsor in the House District
Committee for its bill to give the
P. U. c. power over the student
rate, which is now fixed by law.
Senator Payne said he has
been studying data supplied by
Capital Transit Co. in justifica-
ton of the Holland bill. He
said he had not yet finally made
up his mind but added:
Payne Sees No Extra Cost.
For myself, l cannot see that
there is any appreciable extra
cost to the company because it
carries school children part of
the year as they go to and from
schools"
He said there was no extra
cost during the summer months
when schools were closed. He
also said that he had not noted
any fluctuations during the fall
and spring school terms that
showed any heavy extra costs
due to student patronage.

DonohueAgain
Proposed for
Mitchell Post
Stevenson Reported
Agreeable to Tobin
And DiSuIIe Also

With his resignation as Dis
trict Commissioner likely ex-
pected to be accepted this week,
F. Joseph Donohue once again
is being mentioned as a possible
successor to Stephen A. Mitchell
as chairman of the Democratic
National Committee.
Commissioner Donohue's writ
ten offer to quit has been lying
on President Eisenhower's desk
for five weeks. Local Republi-
cans apparently have been hav-
ing a hard time deciding on a
replacement for the Democratic
incumbent.
There has been no indication
recently that Mr.. Mitchell in
tends to give up his National
committee post to resume private
law practice. About two months
ago, he denied any intention to
resign. He had been asked about
rllmors that Oscar Chapman,
former Interior Secretary, might
succeed him.
Disable and TObin Cited.
Latest reports yesterday had
Mr.. Donohue, Michael Disable,
former OPS director, and Maui
rice Tobin, former Labor Secre-
tary, bearing Adlai Stevenson's
stamp of approval for the chair
manship should it become va
can't.
While it was understood that
some influential members have
approached Mr.. Donohue on the
subject, the Commissioners only
comment yesterday was: "I have
never discussed the matter with
Gov. Stevenson. Period"
Republican leaders agree that
the White House may name Mr..
Donohue's successor as early as
tomorrow or Tuesday. The open
field of likely Republicans has
narrowed down to two-Samuel
Spencer, AZ, an attorney, and
Claude w. Owen, Ct, head of a
local plumbing and heating
wholesale firm.

men, giving the heaviest boosts
to the lowest ranks. was drafted
yesterday by staff members of
| the House District Committee.
1t is intended for introduction
| in the House tomorrow by Rep
resentative Kearns, Republican
of Pennsylvania, chairman OF
the Public Safety Subcommittee
1t will be the rank and file
plan, which is to be considered
at public hearing at 9:30 am
Friday by the Kearns Subcom-
mittee. Along with it will be
the Commissioners plan for a
fiat 10 per cent across-the-board
pay raise.
Cost Estimated at $3.7 Million.
William N. Mcleod, clerk of
the committee, said the new bill
incorporated the requests of
spokesmen for the police and
firemen's associations. Its cost,
he said, had not been calculated,
but he offered a general esti-
mate of about $37 million a
year.
Uuder the rank and file plan,
the salary of privates, now rang
ing from $3,409 to $4,160 over
a six-year step-up, would be
$4,000 to $4,000 in four years
Within grade step-ups would be
to $4,25O, to $4,000 and then to
the top $4,000.
New Scales Proposed.
AS to officers, the newly pro-
posed scale would be $4,000 for
the suptrintendents of the police
and fire departments, the same
as now.
Other police scales would be:
Deputy superintendent, $500,
now $2,034; inspectors, $1,000,
nov $7,311; captains. $4,000. now
$500, lieutenants, $4,000, now
$5,125, sergeants. $500, now
$4,6&5. and corporals, $500, now
$4,460.
A similar scale is proposed in
the new bill for firemen: For
deputy chief engineer, superin-
tendent of machinery and the
fire marshal, $4,000; for battalion
chiefs, $1,000; for captains. So
800: marine engineers. $3.50;
lieutenants, $4,000; sergeants.
$500, and inspectors, $4,000.

Spare That Break
For II. S. Workers,
Executive Urges

Government bosses have been
asked to spare the workers
coffee break.
From Seattle, Wash, the inter-
national president of the Ma
tional Office Management ASso-
citation, j. B. Andrews, says the
coffee break has turned into an
important production tool too
valuable to morale and produc-
tivity"-when properly managed.
He admits the practice has
been and is being abused by some
Government employees, "but the
fault lies with improper pro-
cedures and not the idea itself. !"

He commented that he thought
the proportion of staff to girls
could be reduced where facili-
ties were better.
The visitors were told that
when the population of girls
reaches capacity, some of the
inmates must be released to
make room for those newly COM
mitted by the court. Both leg
islators agreed that the average
three-month stay of the girls
under these conditions wrote off
much chance of rehabilitation.
This opinion was confirmed
when they were told of the high
rate of repeaters.
OF the 81 girls now at the
school, it was estimated that
one-fourth are dependent young
sters. the other three-fourths
committed for delinquency. The
legislators were told there is no
way to separate the girls.
The visitors were particularly
critical of the lack of facilities
for training and rehabilitation.
They found an academic class
room with no teacher, domestic
science room with no electrical
connections for the cooking and
other kitchen equipment. None
of the girls help prepare their
food because the kitchen is in
the Junior Village and the food
is wheeled over to the training
school Three of the girls work
part time in the laundry at
the Junior Village.
Visit Scene of Riot.
They visited the aged Lincoln
Building from which the girls
have been removed but they were
told if the population goes up
very much girls will have to move
back into the building.
They also visited the farm
cottage" - former superintend-
ent's home now made into
quarters for Is girls and scene
of a recent riot. Although the
accommodations looked comfort
able, the lack of separation OF
one type of girl from another
was emphasized. Superintend-
ent Margaret P. McCane said
that at one point, of the 16
girls housed in four rooms on
the second floor, three were ex-
pectant mothers, three were in
neeed of prompt and continuing
psychiatric care and five were
serious behavior problems. One
of them, she said, went on a
five-day crying jag during which
she screamed continually at the
top Of her voice.

The Help Holland" campaign
is part of the social program out

of Loudoun and Fauquier Coun-

plight of the Dutch. Not as one

has spread from Middleburg to
Upperville. to Warrenton and
over to Leesburg. Committees
have been formed in each area
to collect funds. boxes have been
placed in stores and banks,
churches have announced the
local drive and the press out
here has backed them up.
