CURED fully in the position taken
by the Commissioners.
Beall Asks Why
Senator Beall raised the ques-
ton just why the Government
should go into the liquor BUSH
ness. Mr.. Andrews said he gen.
orally was opposed to Govern
ment entrance into the liquor
business but because Of the ma
ture of the whisky business it
can't be regulated too much"
When Senator Beall suggested
that If the Government took
over, some persons would be hurt,
Mr.. Andrews agreed but he add
ed: But somebody also is GO
ing to get hurt, too. II you raise
taxes on food. medicine, cloth
ing, housing and other necessi-
ties"
Mr.. Andrews protested the way
liquor is sold here, saying he had
been told that ANY half-drunk,
alcoholic, wine-o or dope fiend
can buy whisky if he has the
money to pay for it." Senator
Beall said such people stfll could
buy whisky on sale by the drink.
Points to Phone Orders
Mr.. Andrews protested that
whisky now can be bought over
the telephone for delivery. by
drunks, dope flends and GRIM
inals.
Representative O'Hara. Repub-
lican of Minnesota. said he
doubted sales to such people
could be eliminated by a State
store system and that what he
was interested in was the net ef-
feet on revenue.
Chairman Smith, however, said
he thought the lawmakers should
look into the phone order sale of
whisky a little later.
Mr.. Andrews also protested
there had been a high rate of
crime in the District and that he
thought sale of whisky was ie-
lated.
Senator Beall commented that
reports from Police Chief Robert
v. Murray indicated there had
been a reduction of crime in the

ton and our taxpaying public,
We can all be proud Of the ac-
complishment."
But Chairman Cannon of the
House Appropriations COMMITTEES
said he was "astonished' at in
creases in so many items.
Mr.. Cannon said members of
Congress had hoped for ire
trenchment" which would pave
the way for tax cut. He
added:
ut is evident now that any
surplus will not be brought about
by any saving in the national
budget but through the enormous
increases in revenues"

The District Board of Zonine
Adjustment yesterday approved
a plea by George Washington
University to establish an 84-caI
parking lot at the northwest
corner Of Twenty-second and H
streets NV.
University spokesman told the
board, at a District Building
hearing, that the lot is necessary
to help solve a problem in re-
cruiting nurses for its hospital.
Henry w. Herzog. treasurer of
the university, said nurses are
now refusing jobs because the
parking lot provided for them is
six or seven blocks from the hos
pital at Twenty fifth street and
New Hampshire avenue. The
distance, he said, is too far for
women going to and from work
at night.
Mr.. Herzog disclosed that the
university has hired the land
planning firm of Henry Church.
i'll Of Philadelphia to draft over
all plans for the university in
connection with the recent des-
ignation of its neighborhood as
an urban renewal area.
In another plea granted by the
board, Mr.. Herzog disclosed that
the university had bought the
