Realty SaIesnlan's
License Suspended
In Probe Of Deal
The District Real Estate Com

The District Real Estate Com
mission yesterday announced
suspension of the sales license
Of Lawrence F. Scheiter, Al, of
1851 Taylor street NV, on
grounds of dishonest dealing"
The commission ordered a SIX
month license suspension, after
a public hearing in which the
salesman was charged with SELL
ing a home for its owner while
actually representing the inter-
ests Of another person.
According to the findings OF
the regulatory body, the case
went this way:
Last August Mr.. Scheiter was
retained by Mrs. Elizabeth A.
Roche, now of $50 Maiden lane,
Bethesda, Md. to sell her prop
erty at 1418 Meridian place NV.
for $14.500.
Kept Transaction Secret.
Mr.. Scheiter negotiated the
sale at that price with Mr.. and
Mrs. John Schembari, who ulti-
mately moved into the Meridian
place address. But the salesman
failed to. notify Mrs. Roche Of
the transaction.
Instead, the commission found.
Mr.. Scheiter, acting for a friend,
Mrs. Leona s. Mullins of 2127 P
street NV, sold the property to
Mrs. Mullins for $4,000. The
commission contended that Mr..
Scheiter convinced Mrs. Roche
that she should accept the lower
price, since "the bottom had
dropped out Of the real estate
market"
On the same day that the
property sale to Mrs. Mullins
was accomplished through Mr..
Scheiter for $4,000. the sales
man resold it to Mr.. and Mrs,
Schembari for the original ask
ing price. $14,500. All of this
still was without the knowledge
of Mrs. Roche, who was theoret-
ically, at least, Mr.. Scheiter's
client.
Complains to Commission.
Mrs. Roche got wind of the
transaction when she noticed
the names Of the Schembaris. oil
whom she had never heard, while
checking sales contract papers
She told the commission about
1t, and the commission founc
Mr.. Scheiter guilty of '.fraudu-
lent or dishonest dealing" In
that he:
Failed to tell Mrs. Roche Of
the $14,500 offer: falsely repre-.
sented to Mrs. Roche that the
bottom had dropped out of The
market" and failed to disclose
to Mrs. Roche that he was "act.
ing for Mrs. Mullins at all time:
during the transaction"

D. {. Party Delegate
Measure Vetoed for
New Draft in IS
BY Don S. Warren

Legislation giving the District
the power to regulate the selec-
ton of District delegates to the
national political party conven-
tons will be revived next year.
Such assurances were voiced
last night by spokesman for the
Senate District Committee after
President Eisenhower. with con-
siderable regret" vetoed q bill to
that purpose. passed by Con-
gress after several years study.
The President himself. invited
a restudy and drafting Of q new
bill.
Partial Exemption.
The reason assigned by the
President for his veto was that
it would exempt only Z per cent
Of the Federal workers--those
living here-from the Hatch Act
so that they could engage ac-
lively in party activities.
There were indications at the
White House. however, that If
new legislation were passed cor
recting the defects in the present
bill. it would be signed by the
President.
This. some said, raised a lot
of questions about exemptions
from the Hatch Act, which was
designed to exclude Government
officials from any improper ac-
tivities into partisan politics.
Shock to Some.
The Eisenhower veto came as
a shock to some congressional
officials. The exemption for Gov
eminent workers living in the
District for the purpose Of
choosing delegates and the nom
nation Of District committee
men and committeewomen had
been incorporated in the bill
for a year and half. Why.
some asked. should the Civil
Service Commission have moved
at such late date to kill the
whole bill? That was based on
a report that the csc had been
the key to the Eisenhower veto.
A similar bill was pending in
months preceding the 1850 con-
ventions. There was objection
then from some Republican
leaders involved in the then issue
over the nomination of former
Senator Robert A. Taft or Gen.
Eisenhower. Directors asked for
a delay. Later it seemed all had
been cleared.
