Registrar Of Wills
Office Criticized
AS Unco-operutive

The District Office of Registrar
Of Wills came under attack last
night by the Petworth Citizens
Association.
The group charged that the
ONCE refuses to do anything
to help the general public" The
association petitioned the District
Commissioners for public
hearing to correct this condition
or reduce the number of en-
ployes to a size commensurate
with its activities"
John S. Hamill said the Office
"makes it as difficult as possible
to find out what is necessary to
execute an estate"
Their only reply is get a
lawyer, he said. Several
years ago, a man could go into
the Registrar of Wills and re-
ceive aid in the time Of bereave-
ment. Now the employees just sit
behind their desks and do moth
ing"
In other business, the organ
iZation voted to hold postage
rates at the present level.
The group met in the Bernard
School, Fourth and Decatur
streets NV. Mrs. Andrew G..
Weaver, president, conducted
the meeting.

Home Rule Issue Splits
Old and New Members
BY MARLEY ROBERTS

Home rule for Washington is
a frequent issue between old
and new members of the Cathe-
dral Heights-Cleveland Park
Citizens Association.
For many years. the group
opposed home rule but urged
representation in Congress and
the right Of Washingtonians to
vote in presidential elections.
Douglas Sager, a real estate
man and director Of the WASH
ington Home Rule Committee,
Joined the association in 1858.
The groups membership in
creased. In 1866, the association
reversed its stand and supported
home rule in principle.
I'VE liked getting new mem
bers," said Mrs. Walter A..
Sellers. president from 1852 to
1854. But we did resent him
trying to pack the meeting. We
felt they were trying to take
over.
THE old members thought our
present government was best
until we got national repre-
sentation."
OF Mr.. Sager. she said: 81
believe his main interest in join
ing was to promote home rule. "
Persistent in Efforts
Mr.. Sager was persistent in his
home rule efforts. He also
aroused opposition by asking a
constitutional amendment allow
ing colored persons in the asso-
citation.
Most of the old guard are
there only to protect their own
property and coming interests"
Mr.. Sager said. They think
people who live in apartments
are Second-claSS citizens"
