The announcement that the
Hot Shoppes, Inc. has begun
construction of the worlds
biggest motel near its barbecue
emporium at the south end Of
the Fourteenth Street Bridge
revived an old discussion in
the District building last week:
How was the restaurant per-
mitted to remain there In the
first place?
The location of the familiar
orange and white building
smack between the north and
south lanes of one of the Ma
tons busiest highways-prob-
ably is one of the best in the
Nation for restaurant or
motel.
In reality, the road which is
split by the restaurant is five
highways-Route and the
Shirley Highway heading
south, and what ultimately be-
come Routes so, 90 and all
to the west and southwest.
Crossing the property to the
north is the George Washing
ton Memorial Parkway lead
ing to the airport and Mount
Vernon.
Although the principal East
Coast railroad line to the
South passes directly to the
east of the proposed motel and
the National Airport traffic
pattern is straight overhead.
the operators claim that the
latest in soundproof1ng will
make the new motel as quiet
as church.
How Lond Wos Bought

the Hot Shoppes chain, has

lem and. at the same time,
strengthen the hand of the
Government in dealing with
spies. traitors and saboteurs.
1t isn't easy.
The Justice Department,
for example, would prefer not
to have to obtain consent Of a
Federal court prior to such
tapping as 1t might think
necessary-which most Of the
proposed bills would require.
But If such a provision as this
Is omitted, there is a good
chance the law would be
branded unconstitutional.
Even with such a safeguard
included, validity is not guar
anteed. Why couldn't the SUI
preme Court reverse itself on
the Olmstead decision and hold
that overlapping is illegal un-
less there is a warrant issued
on probable cause? The Ohm
stead case was decided, 5 to 4,
and the increasing Importance
Of telephones for purposes of
private communication might
provide q basis for such a hold
ing. If that should happen.
then 1t is q nice question
whether a judges permit to tap
wires is of the same legal value
as the issuance of a warrant.
All this is not to suggest that
there is no happy meeting
ground between the practice'i-
ties and the LOCALITIES of the
wiretap issue. However. since
Congress has clearly shown
concern over the dangers in
herent in legalized tapping, it
is a good bet that any emery
ing law along this line will be
carefully limited and will con-
tain strong elements of, judi
cial control.

when the Hot Shoppes asked
for a verbal OK. to remain
where they were. think he
must have given it."
Early In 1919, when the first
conferences were held on the
controversial restaurant site,
nothing was accomplished.
Later in the year another ses'
sion was held and the District
found it was dealing with
new landlord. The Hot
Shoppes. Inc. had bought the
one-acre restaurant site OUT
right from the railroad.
The District asked for an
option on the land. dated 10
years later, but was turned
down. Then the Hot Shoppes
proposed outright purchase Of
the acre by the District with
the District granting the Hot
Shoppes a long lease on the
property.
Why D. c. Didn't Buy
Mr.. Robertson was asked
this week why the District
didn't buy. His answer:
81 couldn't see paying a
million dollars for an acre of
ground in Virginia. The Dis
trict just doesn't have that
kind Of money. Anyway, why
didn't the Federal Government
buy 1t when 1t was laying out
the Pentagon roads network"
A few weeks after the second
conference had ended in a
deadlock, the District Commits
sioners received a sharply
worded letter from Public
Roads Commissioner Thomas
Macdonald. He wanted action
now" and urged the Commits
sioners to take steps at once
for ultimate elimination Of all
business, including the Hot
Shoppe, from the area"
He added: ut seems un-

give way to the public in
terest?
The Justice Department says
yes. It believes that some peo-
pie must run the risk of hav-
ing their phones tapped by
Government investigators In
order that those charged with
the national security can do
Q better job. And the depart
ment does not cotton to the
notion that overlapping is a
violation Of the Fourth
Amendment which protects
United States citizens from
unreasonable search and
seizure.
The United States Supreme
Court took this view the only
time the question came di-
rectly before 1t. That was 80
years ago when Chief Justice
Taft. speaking for q bare ma
jority Of the court In the Ohm
stead case, said the Fourth
Amendment did not apply to
Q public utility" such as the
telephone and that clandes-
tine interrogation was there
fore OK. Four dissents were
voiced at the time. stressing
the belief that the telephone
was of a private" nature
and perhaps heralding the
temper of a later Congress
which wrote a new Communi-
cations Act in 1884.
In the 1884 law Congress
prohibited the interrogation
and divulgence" of telephone
messages in interstate COM
merce.
But what did that mean?
The FEC has contended that !,
the law means there shall be
neither listening to nor divul-
gence Of phone communities
tons.
The Justice Department has
gone It's own way on the
theory that the law permits
listening lin. but prohibits d.
vulgence of what has been
heard. private snoops often
operate on the same theory.
They do not "divulge" the in

body has been convicted under
the 1884 Act for 1istening.)
Federal iurists have not
ruled on this precise point,
but they have interpreted the
law to mean that wiretap in
formation cannot be used a.
evidence In Federal courts.
The question flrst came before
the Supreme Court in 1897.
Two years later it was re-
iterated and extended to the
point Of excluding evidence
derived indirectly from wire
tapping. This theory. applied
again in the Coplon case In
1851, Is known as the fruit
of the poisonous tree" doctrine
the implications being obvi-
Gus.
Congress Attitude
Clearly, 1t will not be easy
to get q wiretap bill through
Congress. Last year one passed
the House but died In the
Senate. and that bill contained
more restrictions than the
Justice Department wanted.
Feeling against legalized
overlapping was running high
even before the recent New
York scandals emphasized the
extent to which illegal pri-
vate tapping is now going on.
In Washington, too, the no.
torious fact Is that much un-
official overlapping is done
with more than one prominent
person making his phone calls
from public booths to be on
the safe side. It has been
claimed in one instance that
taps on q Congressional COM
.mittee's wire have been 40
heavy as to weaken trans
mission to q noticeable de-
gree.
One fear widely voiced ID
that If Federal overlapping is
permitted. even though Sc
vere1y limited to an official
plane, abuse of the privilege
may mushroom.

hashed over in Congress en-
deavor to deal with this prob

color, phenomena of undersea life
never before photographed. Among
the many fascinating features of
this color film are salvage investi-

Author Of Number Of Articles
Mr.. Rebikoff is the author of a
number Of books and articles on
electronic lighting and under
water photography which have
been published in French, Ger
man, italian, Spanish and English.
He graduated in electrical engin-
eering and became chief engineer
of Radio Control, Lyon, France.
For three years was a civilian
prisoner of war in Germany as
signed to repairing and making
radio sets and instruments.
Following the war he made and
patented the first electronic flash
lamp in Europe: Eclatron, and
Ikotron (Zeiss). He made and
patented the Rebikoff colormeter
and the $4,000 watt second cleo
tron flash studio for Draeger and
for Studio Jean Chevalier in Par
is. In 1949, he patented his eIec-
tron flash torpedo. In 1850, he
made the first color undersea
movies with his movie torpedo.
Since then, he has made from
three to six underwater color
movies each year which are the
features of his phenomenally sue

SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER
Steps Need to Be Taken To Get
Social Security Credit t

Social Security Credit
.''Many individuals are now COW
cred by old age and Survivors in
surance for the first time" Mr..
Milbouer, manager of the Will
mington social security Office, an
nounced yesterday. They need
to take certain steps right away
to be sure that they get social Sc
curity credit for their present en-
ployment.' There are about 800,-
900 persons in the nation who
should apply for social security
account numbers. These applica-
tions should be filed without delay
so that .he employers of newly
covered individuals will have the
employees social security account
numbers when the first quarterly
report is due in April 1855. Mr..
Milbouer went on to explain that
a hired farm worker who is paid
as much as s100 cash wages in
a year by any one farm operator,
regardless of the number of days
he is employed, must have a So
cial security card and show it to
his employer. Household employ
ees (maids, buffers, chauffeurs,
gardeners, cooks, etc. who are
paid as much as $50 cash wages
in a calendar quarter by any one
household employer, regardless of
the number of days worked, will
also have to have a social secur-
ity card. Their employers will be
required to report their wages to
the District Director of Internal
Revenue, beginning with the first
quarter of 1855. THE old test of
regularity for farm and domestic
laborers was repealed by the 1854
Amendments to the Social Secur-
ity Act which President Eisen-
hover signed into law on Septem-
ber 1, 1854" Mr.. Milbouer added.
Another group of employees new
ly brought under the social secur-
ity insurance program are en-
ployees of State and local govern
ments with the exception of po-
licemen and fremen) who are now
under a retirement system. They
will now gain this protection pro-
vided majority of the members
of the system vote in favor of So
cial security coverage. Those en-
ployees who elect to come into the
old-age and survivors insurance
system must apply for and nave
their social security cards before
the first report is due this year.
All newly covered employees
are instructed to write, visit, or
phone their nearest social secur-
ity district Office and ask for ap-
plication Form SS-5 if they have
never had a social security ac-
count number before or have lost
their original card. Milbouer cau-
toned them not to get more than
one number, to use the one as
signed to them originally if they
still have it or to apply for a dup
licate of the old number if they
have misplaced their original
card. The district manager also
advised that most post offices
have a supply of account NUM-
ber applications on hand and that
workers can obtain one there.
They are requested to mail them
to the district Office of the Social
Security Administration located
at 813 West Street, Wilmington,
Delaware.
Mr.. Milbouer also said that the
local social security Office has a
supply of pamphlets that describe
the groups covered under the new
law. He urges everyone who
would like additional information
to write to the social security Of
