In the eleventh day Of the
transit strike. motorists were
showing themselves masters Of
adaptation.
Traffic, heavier than when the
buses and streetcars were run
ming, nevertheless continued to
flow smoothly and with very few
serious jams anywhere.
Part Of the credit belonged to
policemen. who continued to work
split shifts and without days of
lat all downtown intersections.
But police themselves credited
cagy motorists with having found
ways to beat the crush.
Motorists have pretty well
lsettled down to their strike
schedules of when to leave :
home. what-route-to-take and
where-to-park.
Their favorite parking places
are on streetcar tracks. In the
first days of the strike, places
were available on the car tracks
until after 8 am. each day. Now
that the pattern has become es-
tablished. these choice spots are
almost all gone by Z am.
Some drivers continue to get
violation tickets for violating
parking regulations. however.
Police report that large num-
bers of motorists still think that
all parking regulations are sus-
pended for the duration of the
strike.
AS a result, tickets are being
given to those who park in spaces

End Due
In Los Angeles

LOS ANGELES, July II (Pl.-
"A union leader predicts that bus
and trolley operators will ap-
prove today a new wage offer
which will quickly end the three
week strike against the Los
Angeles Transit Lines.
Only one obstacle was seen
by Francis j. Donnelly, presi-
dent of Division 1877 Of the
AFL Amalgamated Association
of Street. Electric Railway and
Motor Coach employees of Amer
lea. That is a company proposal
to cut back overtime rush-hour
service.
The line normally handles
100000 passengers daily.
Mr.. Donnelly predicted. how
ever, that the unions 1900 mem
bers will vote to accept the
agreement suggested by Federal
Conciliator Harry Malcolm. The
proposal has been indorsed by
the company and by four of the
seven union negotiators.
The proposed two-year pact
provides for a total Of IL cents
more an hour in three pay in
Icreases, with the last increase
effective September /. 1856, in
stead Of December /, 1856, as
specified in an earlier rejected
offer.
Transit lines officials stated
that If the vote is favorable,
buses and streetcars will roll
Wednesday morning. Voting will
be between 10 am. and 10 pm.
today.
Another feature of the new
proposal is an escalator clause,
providing an additional wage in
crease February /, 1857, if living
costs rise between January IS,
1856. and the following Janu-
|ary Is.
The pay scale has been $1.91
hourly. The union originally
asked a 20-cent increase.
The idling of the downtown
transportation system has had
little effect on this sprawling
city. The areas more than 2
million automobiles have taken
much Of the transporting during
the walkout.
However. while people are get
ting to their jobs. the downtown
shopping district has been hard
hit.

Subcommittee members also
questioned GSA officials sharply
about another request-$400, ,00(
to buy three sites on c street
NV. between Twenty-seconc
and Twenty-third streets.
GSA made the request after
the District Zoning Commission
recently rezoned one of the
tracts to permit construction oi
a "memorial-type" headquarters
for the National Association o1
Life Underwriters. GSA officials
contended that the land had
been in one of the Governments s
taking areas" for three decades
but that Federal officials had
never got around to buying it
They argued that the building
proposed would be out of keeping
with surrounding Federal struc-
lures, and said they wanted il
particularly to provide space
near proposed expansion of the
State Department.
Retorts to Planners
The National Capital Planning
Commission also sent the com.
mittee a letter urging Federal
acquisition of the property.
That action, however, drew q
sharp retort from Representa-
tive Th o M as. Democrat ol
Texas, and chairman of the sub
committee.
Here" he said, "is the way
this thing shapes up:
"The National Planning Com
mission wants to take all of the
land in the District off the
tax rolls and put it into the
hands of the government and
then, in the next year or the
year after next, wants a bigger
Federal contribution on the
theory that the land is owned
by the Government, they are
getting no taxes out of it, and
so forth and SO on.
so that (Federal payment)
bill has gone from IS million a
year until they now want $40
million on the one hand, and on
the other hand they come ir
here and when a man wants to
put up a building and pay taxes
they say it is going to mar the
beauty"
The subcommittee decided to
look itself at the property in
'volved, and later heard from Of
ficials of the Life Underwriters
Association.
Donald Dawson, attorney for
the group, said 1t would be very
glad to pay taxes" on the new
building, and estimated they
would amount to between $500
and $1,000 a year.
Com m ented Chairman
Thomas: 1T seems to me like
q nice building that would help
