Case and Nicely Introduce Bill
ToControI After-Hours Clubs

A bill to regulate after hours
bottle clubs in Washington, sim
liar to one pending in the House,
was introduced today in the
Senate.
Chairman Case of the Senate
District Committee, who spon-
sored the bill with Senator Nicely
of West Virginia, said the bill is
a modified version" of one they
proposed in 1851. He said he
had conferred with Representa-
tive Kearns, Republican. of
Pennsylvania, who is sponsoring
the House measure. They are
cooperating to obtain legisla-
ton, he said.
Senator Case has been critical
of after hours drinking places
for several years and spanked an
investigation of crime in the
Capital which he blamed in part
on bottle clubs. He released the
following statement today:
"On April 4, 1851, the Senator
from West Virginia (Mr. Neely)
and myself co-sponsored in the
Senate Sl264, to license and reg
ulate those breeding-grounds of
Washington crime, the so-called
bottle clubs We acted follow
ing a fatal shooting in one of
them, the Gold Key Club.
THAT club is as good an ex-
ample as any of why these after
hours drinking spots must be
eliminated from the Nation S
Capital, and why new legislation
is needed to bring this about.
THE purpose of this legisla-
ton is to license and regulate
the So-called after-hours or bot
tie clubs by creating a new type
of license under the District of
Columbia Alcoholic Beverage
Control Act, approved January
"a, 1884, as amended. by placing
such establishments under the
jurisdiction and supervision of
the commissioners of the District
of Columbia and the District of
Columbia Alcoholic Beverage
Control Board.
The proposed bill gives the
Commissioners authority to pre-
scribe the hours during which al
coholic beverages may be con-
sumed .on such premises, and to
forbid the consumption thereof
on Sundays. Also the Commits
sioners would be authorized to

Gold Nine Brid1e

The Potomac River Bridge at
Williamsport, Md, is a veritable
gold mine worthy of State pur-
chase, a State Senate committee
was told.
Morris B. Bassford of Hagers-
town, chairman of a special legis-
lative commission, told Senators
last night that the family of
former Gov. William Preston
Lane, jr.. is among the stock
holders in the privately-owned
bridge. The bridge, which crosses
to West Virginia, was built for
100000 and 20 years ago i'm
provements cost sos, 900. But an
nual income from tolls exceeds
100000. Mr.. Bassford said. His
group recommended purchasing
the span for $500, 900 or less and
then, after tolls pay off the pur-
chase price, opening the bridge
to traffic free of charge.-AP.

Survey Says Foirfox

The School Board of Fairfax
County, Va, has been building
schools too cheaply and has not
been paying architects enough to
assure long-range economy.

make recommendations for an
other $11 million program.

EAmphitheater Control
By Recreation Board
Proposed in Dispute

A new angle in the contro-
XerSy- over commercialization of
Carter Barron Amphitheater de-
veloped yesterday with recon-
-mendatiens that the facility be
taken over by the District Recre-
alton Board.
The outdoor arena in Rock
Creek Park. near Sixteenth
street and Colorado avenue NV.
is now under control of the In
terror Department through Ma
tional Capital Parks.
Residents in the area have
protested proposals that COM
mercial interests be permitted to
use the theater. In a petition
to Secretary of Interior Mckay
they pointed out they had no
objection to its use for purely
civic purposes. However, they
complained commercial produc-
ers would profit at the expense
of property owners nearby.
The amphitheater question was
brought up anew at the Recre-
alton Boards monthly meeting
by Chairman Frank H. Collins.
He told members he had been
asked by Mr.. Mckay to act as
arbitrator in any disputes if
the commercial proposal goes
through. ...--.
Suggestions that the board act
as a processing group for all
applicants wishing to use the
theater were made by Recreation
Supt. Milo F. Christensen. He
also proposed that the fiat $50
rental each night be scrapped.
AS an alternative Mr.. Chris
tianSen said he felt a system
whereby the Recreation Depart
ment would get a share of the
profits could be worked out.
This money would go to the
recreation fund for the benefit
of the city as whole, he said.
The recreation board agreed
that a committee headed by Mr..
Christensen should be set up to
study the matter and determine
operation and maintenance costs
of the theater. The committee
will pass it's recommendations on
to Mr.. Mckay.
Board member Henry Gich-
ner asked for a speedup of work
on the Cardozo Playground at R
street between Ninth and Tenth
streets NV. He seeks compile
ton of current construction so
the recreation area can be used
this summer.
At the same time the board
approved construction plans of
Stead Playground between Six
tenth and Seventeenth. P and
@ streets NV.

sioners for authority to conduct

mendation that the Commits
sioners proclaim May to 10 as

nounced the plan as an after
math to the fracas yesterday
over Chairman Velde's sugges-
ton that the committee might
look into Communist tendencies
among the clergy. The sugges-
ton. delivered in a televiSion in
terview, caused such an cutlery
among Velde's fellow committee
members that the chairman later
issued a statement saying no
such investigation lis contem-
plated at this time by me-"
Representative Kearney, Re-

will throw his support behind
Mr.. Walters proposal. as indi-
cations increased that Mr..
Velde's statements had created
an unusual stir within his COM
mittee. There were reports, not
officially confirmed, that House
Speaker Martin of Massachu-
sets has been asked to take a
hand.
The Republicans hold a So
edge in the committee. But if
