fascinated by work. They sit
and look at it for hours. Uncle

Boy, 16, Accused Of Arson
In GARAGE Fire Here

A 16-year-old boy was accused
of arson yesterday, as a result
of a $3.50 garage fire on "trick
or treat" night last Friday.
Detectives r. R. Crawford and
j. E. Donahde of the Juvenile
Squad said the boy admitted set
ting the blaze in garage at
the rear of 1923 Farragut street
NV.
They said the youth told them
he had boasted to other boys
that he was going to burn
some ones garage down." Later,
he noticed an open garage with
dry grass inside. He lit a Gig
arctic. he said, then tossed a
couple of matches onto the dry
grass.
He went to his home and a
few minutes later looked from
a window and aW that the ga
rage was burning. He returned
to the scene and watched fire.
men fighting the blaze.
Police said neighbors told them
tSey had had some difficulty with
a boy who "rides a red and white
bicycle" This led the officers
to the 16-year-old boy.

expected to register in the

The "co- coordination of interior

Rise and Fall of Gas Lamp
BHqhtens Old Timers Session

The Association Of Oldest In
habitants had a nostalgia look
at the dim1y lit past last night.
1t all started around 1846,
when a certain Mr.. Crutchett of
the Capitol Hill area began per-
suading a few Congressman that
he could brighten up the Capitol
with lights from gas.
Congress finally acted. It
voted to buy Mr.. Crutchett'S idea
and the Government had its first
gas light-right on top of the
skeleton dome. This was very
dim past, however. So dim, in
fact, that it didn't last much
longer than another act of Con-
gresS.
But from then on, after the
first dim. pilot-light view of the
Capitol dome, the story of gas
light in Washington is a long.

rary design, it's going to take
skill"
At 2 p. m. today, the visitors
make special tour of the White
House. They are interested in
seeing how the furnishing of the
reconstructed White House has
been carried out.
Tomorrow some of the group
will make an all-day tour of
interesting houses. including the
Lee Mansion. Mount Vernon,
GunSton Hall and Woodlawn.
On Saturday there will be a
choice of visiting houses in
Georgetown or some of the en-
basSies.
The Maryland District Chap

the meeting. That chapter takes

Delaware. B. L. Freshman of

Fur Workers Suit
Attacks NLRB Policy
OF Non Recognition

The international Fur and
Leather. Workers Union yester-
day appealed to Federal Court to
set aside a non-recognition policy
adopted by the National Labor
Relations Board, following the
indictment of Ben Gold, union
president.
Gold was indicted last August
on charges that he lied when he
said he was not a Communist in
an affidavit filed with the NLRB.
The suit, filed in the U. S. Dis
trict Court for the District of
Columbia yesterday, attacked a
policy statement it said was is
sued by the NLRB last Oc-
tober %.
The suit quoted the policy
statement as specifying that the
board would not treat with
unions of which an officer had
been indicted for filing false
non Communist affadavits.
The suit declared the boards
policy stated the board would not
process union representation
cases for such unions except in
limited instances. In such cases,
the suit said, the boards stated
policy would be to certify bar
gaining agent election results
only if the union lost and not if
it won.
This policy is illegal, the suit
declared on number of
grounds. One charge made was
that it "vitiates the presumption
of innocence which prevails on a
not guilty plea" (Gold has
pleaded not guilty to the false
affidavit charges.)
The suit also declared the
boards policy was promulgated
without notice or hearing and
violates the due process clause of
of the Constitution.

Now it's different, said Mr..
Gill. There is nicely regulated,
