rural areas that South Carolina
farmers banded together, bor-
rowed money from the REA and
built their own power lines.

NewHousing Regulations
Seen Hitting Snog Here
BY HECTOR MCLEAN

The Hotel Associations plea
was quickly followed by one
from the spokesman for the
rooming, boarding and lodg-
ing house operators-the Dis
trict chapter of the Property
Owners Association of Amer
ica-which asked that these
kinds of housing also be ex-
cluded from the codes provi-
sion on sleeping room space.
This particular section Of the
code also requires 10 square
feet Of floor space for rooms
with single occupants, Thus,
a room with only so or IS
square feet of floor space could
not be used at all for Sleep
ing purposes.
The Property Owners Asso-
citation complained that by
any standards, we do not
deem 1t fair for this housing
code to set minimum of
10 square feet for single occu-
pancy, and then in a short
while a political convention or
Inauguration brings inf an in
flux of tourists and the Pull
man Company, for example. is
permitted to house guests
within the District of Columbia
in Pullman bedrooms Of per-
haps a so square feet floor
area"
What the space regulations
should be-if any-represents
a battle with health officials,
who are fundamentally re-
sponible for the whole housing
code idea.
The chairman of the Hous-
ing Code Drafting Committee
is William H. Cary, jr., of the
Districts Health Department.
He says the proposed 50-foot
and 70-foot requirements have
been enforced against ROOM
ing houses here since 1912,
throughout World War II.
The reason for the 50-foot
rule. he says. is that 1t Is dam
gerous to public health from
the standpoint OF contagion
to quarter people any closer
together. OF the 70-foot re-
quirement, he declares, 1t takes
about that much space to get
necessary beds and bureaus
into q room and still leave
some room to turn around.
Whether Mr.. Dulcan's Hous-
ing Code Review Committee
will try to upset the Commits
sioners' directive remains to be
seen. There is strong senti-
ment in the group to do that.

form was made last year in the
swift capture and sentencing
of three men who held up the
Andrews Air Force Base branch
bank. They got $124.638. one
of the larger scores in recent
bank history, and the biggest
in Maryland annals.
But they fled so precipitously
a Prince Georges County
policeman stopped their speed
ing getaway car. While he was
booking the driver. the two
confederates resumed their
fight. They too were captured
later.
Cases like this make a bandit
feel it's Just too riskys It was
like that in the Baltimore theft
when bank janitor walked
of with $4,000 of his
employers assets. Convicted,
he said the episode caused him
so much trouble he made his
mind up never to accept an
other job in a bank.
Small Bonks Get Business
Armed guards. alarm sys-
TENS and bars over windows
are all commended by in
surance men as robbery pro-
lection. But some banking
shops. particularly SIN all
branch Offices and neighbour
hood loan places, employ such
devices to far lesser degree
than the bigger outfits. That's
why the little ones are so at
tractive to robbers.
Among the most audacious
of all were three males who
picked on a big bank in a Mid
western city. Theirs was a
burglary caper. One night
they simply broke a window in
the bank and were climbing
through when police arrived.
Two were captured on the
scene. Their confederate es-
capped but was surrendered to
police the next morning by his
mother. He was 6 years old.
His pals were 8.
OF 100 bank robberies la a
recent FBI study, about half
were one-man Jobs. Or, rather
one-person. Women rob banks.

Few robbers bother with
hoods or masks. The Drinks
case, where gunner worked in
Halloween costumes, was per-
haps the outstanding excep-
ton.

District:

Three months ago the Dis
trict Commissioners told
Washington's Housing Code
Drafting Committee to come
up with an all-inclusive YER
sion in writing the third draft
Of the proposed regulations.
They said the code should
apply to all types of dwellings
and should contain no sepa-
rate provisions for special
classifications. except in sup
Elementary regulations con-
corning the licensing and op-
Grafton of such things as
rooming houses and GONZALES
cent homes.
With the third draft Of the
code completed and turned
over to the Housing Code re-
view Committee, headed by
Charles B. Dulcan. ST.. exactly
that issue has stymied further
progress.
How soon it will be finally
approved is anybody's guess.
One time factor, though, is a
deadline of December 81. BY
then the District must have
housing code as part of its
workable program" for Civ
ing Washington a general face
lifting in order to qualify for
Federal financial help.
The problem is that the
city's hotels want to be spe-
officially Included out" Of the
housing code. So do the own
ers Of rooming. lodging and
boarding houses.
The bandwagon was set
rolling by the Hotel Associa-
ton of Washington, which
said over half its members
would suffer drastic conse-
quences" If they were forced
to comply with code restric-
tons on the number of persons
who could be put into one
sleeping room.
The provision says there
must be OF least SO square feet
Of floor space for each person
in O sleeping room.

guidance to an exit. A bank
employe pointed to a door and
yelled. Through there!" The
robher plunged through the
door. the employe slammed it
behind him, and the bandit
was neatly Gagged in q small
back room.
Less Strone-Am ,
Not as many of today's rob-
bers go in for assaulting, kid
mapping or killing bank en-
ployes. But in rs of the 100
cases studied, the robbers were
carrying guns. In the Is other
cases, one robber had a black
jack, Is pretended to nave
guns in their pockets and ii
carried toy guns.
THE study indicated that IN
a large majority of these rob-
cries some local talent or area
talent was involved" Robbers
would seem to prefer operating
in a region not entirely I'M
familiar to them.
MANY chose Federally in
sured institutions to rob be-
cause it wouldn't hurt any one
person, the FBI study
showed.
Their motives for needing
money we're many and varied.
even as yours and mine. And
those who were able to spend it
spent in assorted places.

fairly well the use to which

A sunny glow seems to come
over the Greater National
Capital Committee whenever it
contemplates the future Of
those pink and white flowers
blooming around the TiGs,
Basin.
The group. which runs the
Cherry Blossom Festivals, has
made q fine thing Of those
flowers; but, as they say, the
city-and the Nation-ain't
seen nothing yet.
Remember In the old days"
o committee member says,
when we'd have q clutter of
school kids. maybe In kimonos,
acting out q gift Of 5000 little
cherry trees? Now look at it.
A great civic festival.
"But think Of the future pos
sibilities. Those little trees
could blossom into Americas
greatest festival-a real ma
tional event."
COMMITTEES members believe
such a national Cherry Bios
som Festival would bring all
Americans closer to their Capt.
tai. And those Americans who
actually visit their Capital. of
course, will leave behind q
healthy wad Of money.
The Future
How can the festival be
turned into q national event?
Well. it's spring, so first ones
eye might as well turn to SO
lovely girls-all with the magic
title of princess"
The GNCC has ideas about
choosing those princesses. 1t
likes to dream Of reaching into
the very heart Of "just plain
America" Of plucking out the
typical" American girl and of
giving her the democratic
chance, when the Vice Presi-
dent spins the wheel Of fortune,
to become queen of all America
and her territories beyond the
seas.
When that happens, GNCC
smiles. Washington's Cherry
Blossom Festival will become q
great national pageant: a ira
dition that even the President
Of the United States will
Join in.

Stickups Increase
What Used to Be Task for Professionals
Now Is Anybody's Superintendent Job
BY RICHARD RODGERS

Robhing banks used to be a
speciality of professionals,
working in gangs. But these
days so many amatuers and
lone operators are taking a
crack at it that G-men are
holding special clinics.
THE thermometer Of crime
statistics" shows a "feverish"
rise in bank jobs, j. Edgar
Hoover warned in the March
issue of the FBI Law Enforce
ment Bulletin.
Patterns have changed, he
wrote. In the early '30s
John Diilinger and others of
similar persuasion were achiev-
ing records in cash with
drawais at pistol point. Those
were polished gang jobs. Today
any loan Office or bank is liable
to be stuck up by some i'm
pulsive party who just happens
to be passing by.
Bull Morket on Stickups
Last year there were SIT rob-
berries, larcenies and burglaries
of such institutions. It was 80
more than in the preceding
year and continued the steady
rise since 1850. when all three
categories totaled 226.
"Of the three violations, rob-
bery-the most serious-shot
up threefold," the FBI boss
said.
Bank robbery all too often
is regarded in terms of a crime
against property and the
threat to human life is over
looked" he added. Robbers
themselves regard a bank heist
as a lesser offense than. say,
holding up a citizen on the
street.
Bank robbers are fairly logi-
cal in their choice Of targets.
when you want q hat, you
go to a hat store" a confirmed
member Of the trade told FBI
interviewers. when you want
a loaf of bread, you go to a
bakery. And when you want
money, you go to a bank.
That's where the money is"
Even bankers cannot argue
this view. They can deplore,
however, customer who skips
the normal banking routine.
And every time the direct ap-
proach, Smith & Wesson
style, is. successful. the expert
menter and others are en-
couraged to repeat.
The Deterrents
Swift capture and certain
punishment are the greatest
deterrents to robbery. That's
why some 100 FBI conferences
with bankers and lawmen are
being held in various cities this
year. Banks and loan Offices
obviously could use better
safety measures. the FBI feels.
Insurance groups concur fer
vently.
A notable contribution to re-
