The NCHA plans to erect per-

Part of the site will be taken

critics and turn the buildings

ment, unless it is determined

er temporary housing for per-

NCHA managed these under
agreement with the District Gov

owned by the District or was
public land made available to
the Commissioners. These struc-

Senators Asked
To Probe Stand
Of Transit Firm
Union Seeks Quiz;
Tells How Company
Scorns Arbitration

The Capital Transit Co.'S
union workers today asked a
Senate investigation of the COM
pany's refusal. to arbitrate the
company-union pension dispute
and to appear before the fact
finding board.
The company has steadily re-
fused to have any discussions
with the board, appointed to as
certain the facts in the dispute
and to make recommendations.
It declined comment on the
unions plea made today.
The request for an investiga-
ton was directed to Senator
Payne, Republican, of Maine. He
is chairman of a Senate District
subcommittee charged with in
veStigating operations of transit
companies in this area.
Walter j. Bierwagen. union
president, said in letter to Sem
ator Payne that the company
"has three times defled the pub
lie by refusing to appear be-
fore a fact finding board estab-
lished by the Commissioners OF
the District of Columbia and the
director of the Federal Mediation
and Cancellation Service"
The letter continued:
"The company had previously
defied its obligations to arbitrate
an existing pension dispute be-
tween the company and this or
ganiZation (the union) -.
1.-The company's continued re-
fusal to make any serious effort
to abide by it's duty to arbitrate
and to appear before any proper
public tribunal on this matter is
apparently based on a desire to
force the employees to strike to
obtain their justified demands
and thus to cause an interrupt
ton in service to the public.
This situation calls for the
immediate exercise of the sub
poena power of your committee
in order that the facts may be
brought before the public. 1t is
requested that your subcommit-
tee hold immediate hearings on
the matter"

War II, is still in progress.
James Ring, executive director
of the National Capital Housing
Authority, said that since 1945
a total of 1881 temporary hous-
ing units have either been re-
moved from their sites here or
are being vacated for early
demolition. Altogether there are
some 1000 war housing units
due for removal, Mr.. Ring
pointed out.
Already removed are $50 mo-
bile housing units, purchased in
1914 by the Public Housing Ad-
ministration to house Negro war
workers here. These were erected
on leased sites and the NCHA
accepted the management OF
these temporary properties.

After the war PHA sold them

ing conducted directly on the
sites. There was a demand for
them as beach houses. But there
was ban on re-erecting them in
the District, as they did not
measure up to the permanent
building standards here.
Some of these mobile units
occupied part of Anacostia Park
at Twenty-fourth street and
Oklahoma avenue NE. Now
they are all gone.
Other mobile units were on
scattered lots throughout South

and New York avenues NE. But

So. they must be removed by
purchasers for re-erection in
jurisdictions with more lenient
building codes. PHA will deter
mine the timing of disposition
and the methods to be used in
connection with the sale of these

Where PHA sanctions DISPOSE

said tenants will be advised sew

can seek other homes.
Low-1ncome families of veter-
ans who have observed the pro-
visions of tenancy in war hous-

said.
Mr.. Ring pointed out: "Of the

prepared for the remainder.
"The temporary properties now

War housing tenants whose in
comes are above levels for adj
mission to public housing will
have to find private housing, the
director explained.
The war-built homes were es-
sentially temporary in character
and had a high maintenance
cost. Private construction and
new low-rent permanent housing
erected by NCHA have enabled
the Government to get rid of the
temporary structures, Mr.. Ring
explained.
Under the current program,
PHA officials said tenants of
war-built housing will be notified
not later TIM Mrch 81 next to
vacate the premises by July /,
1854. Those remaining after that
date are to be evicted and dwell
ings removed as soon as prac-
ticable, after they become vacant.
PHA officials said neither the
District Commissioners nor
NCHA wanted the temporary
war-built housing, which they
could acquire. Mr.. Ring said in
doing this, NCHA is living up to
commitments made to the Dis
trict government. to citizens
groups and to site owners when
the housing was erected.

Senator Hendrickson
Points to Increasing
Offenses in D. c.
By Harold B. Rogers

Chairman Hendrickson, Of a
Senate subcommittee investi-
eating juvenile delinquency
throughout the Nation. said TO-
day he personally favors begin
ming the probe here in Wash
ington because it has the reputa-
ton Of being one cf the worst
cities in the country for youth
full crime.
The New Jersey Republican
emphasized. however, that a de-
cision as to where his group
will start remains to be made
by the subcommittee itself.
The lawmaker, a former mem
Der of the Senate District Com
mittee, is familiar with condi-
tions in the Capital. He declared.
II think we ought to start right
here in our own backyard. This
is the showplace of America"
The Senator said he discussed
the problem with his own per-
sonal staff and had reports
showing the situation in Wash
ington.
Cited District Figures.
On juvenile delinquency, the
Senator had presented the re-
putation of Washington before
the full Senate Judiciary Com
mittee when he was urging the
investigation. At that time he
cited report by the Criminal
Justice Association here that
delinquent acts" in Washington
increased by COS per cent in the
year 1852 over 1851. This was
based on facts known to the
Juvenile Court.
The same report also showed
that delinquency of youngsters
IL years of age or younger in
creased by 50.8 in the period.
The most recent fact cited by
Senator Hendrickson about the
District showed that in this city
there were more reported mar
cotics law violations per capita
than in any of the States.
This statement came from the
Federal Narcotics Bureau in
Its latest annual report on
traffic in opium and other dam
gerouS drugs.
For the District, the Bureau
listed 106 violations last year or
about one in each 7,4O0 of the
population as compared to New
York. with one in each $4,000.
and Texas with one in each 30,-
600 Of the population.
One Of the unusual reports
reaching the Senator's Office
came from a woman in a nearby
county. She told aides in the
subcommittee Office she had
found several small children
playing in the nude in the base
ment Of her home.
Kefauver On Group.
The Hendrickson subcommit-
tee. the chairman said, probably
will set up its staff sometime
next weeks The subcommittee
also has Senator LANCER, Repub-
lican. of North Dakota; Senator
Kefauver, Democrat. of Tennes-
see. and Senator Hennings,
Democrat, of Missouri.
The investigation was ordered
by the Senate in passing a reso-
luton June /, with committee
expenses set at $4,000.
Senator Hendrickson said he
regretted that the members of his
subcommittee had not been ap-
pointed earlier so they could
have begun their study sooner
this year, Under the resolution,
its findings together with its
recommendations for such legis-
lation as it deems advisable, "
must be submitted to the Senate
not later than January 81 next
year.
The Senator said he hopes
sufficient accomplishments are
made by his group by that time
to point up the seriousness of
the situation to awaken law en-
forcement agencies, especially at
the local level.
