Jack has never lost q cent that

Suburban Bus OK
For Downtown Run
Md. Line to Vie
With cTC on
10th St. Route

Despite objections by the Cap
ital Transit Co. and the ALL
union Of its employees, the Dis
trict Public Utilities Commission
has authorized the Suburban
Transit Co. to run rush-hour ex-
press bus service down Sixteenth
street NV. from Maryland.
The commission ruled the serv-
Ice may begin on Wednesday.
While the commission agreed
the new service will compete with
Capital Transit. 1t said 1t be-
1ieves "the service should be of
fered as an opportunity of prov
ing It's worth" The commission
also said it hopes the new service
win persuade many suburbanites
to leave their automobiles at
home instead Of bringing them
downtown.
The Suburban Transit buses
viii run between the connpany's
terminal near Georgia and East
ern avenues NV. and Fifteenth
and K streets NV.
Company witnesses testified,
during two days of hearings on
August 81 and September !. that
the company will ask the Inter-
state Commerce Commission to
raise its fares to cover the Dis
trict portion OF its Maryland
Washington service.
Under the terms Of the utili-
ties commission order, the COM
pany win not pick up passen-
gers in the District on its in
bound runs, nor discharge them
in the District on its outbound
runs.
Capital Transit, which now
carries Suburban's Maryland
passengers on the Washington
portion of their trips downtown,
had charged the competition
would seriously hurt its business.
The union echoed this, warm
ing it might even lead to loss
OF jobs for some Of its members.
The commission ruled the eff
feet on the union would be small
and indirect. Concerning the
company, it said:
THE number Of Capital
Transit Co.'S present passengers
who would find the proposed OPP
Grafton sufficiently convenient to
abandon the use Of Capital
Transit vehicles Is speculative.
but the commission is of the
belief that they would not be
sufficient In number to constitute
"a serious revenue loss to Capital
Transit Co. I"

FoIIs Church Mons
Activities in l928-30
Described to Court

A hulking New York City taxi
driver with a record Of nine years
in the Young Communist League
and Communist Party yesterday
described Saul B. Horwatt as "a
professional revolutionist" and
q salaried member of the Com
Imunist Party and its af1iliates
between 1928 and 1880.
Mr.. Horwatt, Falls Church
tVa.) electrical contractor. is
lighting Government attempts to
ldenaturalize him In Federal
Court in Alexandra on the
ground that he lied when he
obtained his citizenship papers
by failing to state that he was
q Communist in 1928 and 1929.
The witness yesterday was
Leonard Patterson. a Negro,
whose own seduction into Marx
ism led him from the North
Carolina tobacco fields to a boot
blacks job In Communist head
quarters in New York City, cata-
quilted him in 1881 to a leader
ship school in Moscow and
finally left him disillusioned in
Philadelphia in 1887. He told
Federal District Judge Albert ".
Bryan that he had many per-
lsonal contacts with Mr.. Horwatt
during the years in question.
Admission by Horwatt
Mr.. Patterson's testimony came
on the heels Of Mr.. Horwatt's
admission that he was a Com
Imunist in 1923 and 1929 after
trying linsuccessfuliy to invoke
the Fifth Amendment.
Judge Bryan denied Mr.. Hor-
watt the protection OF the self
determination clause after De-
Tense Attorney Joseph A. Fanelli
introduced new matter into
testimony by asking the 48-year-
old Polish born electrical con-
tractor If. during the years 1926
1881, he had belonged to any
organization which. at the time,
taught or advocated the violent
overthrow of the Government.
Mr.. Horwatt said he had not.
During previous direct exami-
nation from Assistant United
States Attorney Harlan E.
Freeman, Mr.. Horwatt had
denied Communist membership
lin the years 1925, 1926. 1927 and
1880 but had refused to answer
questions as to his status in
1928 and 1929.
Judge Bryan said that in an
swering his attorneys broader
question as to his activities over
the period 1861. Mr.. Horwatt
waived the right to refuse to
testify under Mr.. Freeman's
Icross-examination about more
specific questions.
Mr.. Horwatt then testified
that he was . card-carrying
Communist In both 1928 and
1929 but said that, when he
Joined the party, he agreed only
ito support any trade union In
Its activities to obtain better
status"
Mr.. Patterson testified his
first step up in the Communist
hierarchy came in September.
1928, when he was graduated
from the second floor barber
shop in which he worked as a
bootblack in Communist Party
District Headquarters. 26-28
Union Square. New York City,
to the fourth-floor Communist
Party Workers School.
rs there anyone here in this
room that you saw while a stu
dent there?" Mr., Freeman asked.
Mr.. Patterson walked across
