was very unfortunate that the
regulations of demolition have
not been more detailed and
meticulous but he added that
the District will move as fast
as possible to approve a revision
fthe building code.
Actually, such a revision was
considered by the Commissioners
in August, 1856. after having been
studied and worked up by the
Districts Building Code Advisory
Committee. But the Commits
Sioners sent it to the Corpora
ton CounSelS Office for an
opinion and there it has re-
manned ever since. That pro-
posed revision emphasized the
appearance of lots and neighbour
ing walls after places have been
demolished but it also carried
safety provisions.
Mr.. Gwathmey. in his admin
istrative order, pointed out that
proposed revisions now under
consideration will improve our
control of contractors actions. ;"
Until final action is taken by
the Commissioners on these re-
visions, Mr.. Gwathmey an
nounced his instructions cover
ing demolition contracts will be
strictly observed.
The instructions particularly
concern party walls or walls
shared by two properties. 1t was
a party wall that toppled on the
P street lot.
The District. he said, will
definitely determine what party
walls, if any, are involved before
a permit is approved. Contrac-
tors applying for demolition per-
mits will have to show on a
plan the location of all property
lines Involved in any party walls.
The need for special anchor
ing of sections of party walls
which the wreckers plan to leave
in place will be determined in
advance. The details of the pro-
posed method Of anchoring will
have to be shown on drawings
approved by the Engineering
Branch before permit can be
issued.
Proof 10 Be Asked
Unless the owner or contrac-
tor can demonstrate by partially
removing wall sections that the
walls are bonded--or tied to-
gether by cross-sections of brick
1t will be assumed there is no
bonding.
Inspectors will follow up. as
In the case Of new construction,
on the approved details of the
permit drawings.
II conditions on these inSpec-
tons prove substantially diff
ferent from those SHOWN on the
drawings, the inspectors will
take action to insure safety in
the remaining walls. This action
might include re-examining the
drawings by top officials in the
inspection division.
All these instructions specifi-
cally correct situations found
during the District investigation
OF the p street wall incident anc.
pointed out in detail in The
Stars story Sunday.
Mr. Gwathmey said 1t was APP
parent that demolition work has
become big business in Wash
ington but the regulations COW
sIing demolition are scanty.

British Royal Couple In Auto Accident-
 Is Princes Face Red.

LONDON, R-Prince Philip tossed out bread hint yesterday that he has none to high an opin- ion of women drivers. Several hours later he reportedly was in a collision while driving his wife, Queen Elizabeth IT.
 The Prince had concluded an address to the annual meeting of the British Automobile Assn. with these words:
 T will take your greetings to the millionth member, who has not yet shown any inclination to drive. The longer we can put off that awful moment the better"
 The millionth member of the automobile association is his daughter, the 5-year-old Princess Anne. The association enrolled her the day she was born.
 Later, a dark green sports car and small sedan tangled in Staines, near Windsor Castle, in front of Reginald Parker's vege- table store Parker and his wife, who ran out, told reporters Philip was driving the sports car and the Queen was along.
 Witnesses said nobody was hurt. Shortly after the time of the acci- dent, the royal couple entertained the British Commonwealth Prime Ministers at dinner at Windsor

Synod Hears of Eskimo Youths Adjusting Problem

TACOMA, R-The problem of helping Eskimo youth to adjust to white civilization was brought before the annual meeting of the Presbyterian synod of Washing ton and Alaska here Wednesday.
 J. Earl Jackson, secretary of the department of work in Alas ka, told the synod construction and operation of radar stations along the DEW Line brought more white men into Eskimo areas.
 He added that the end of con- struction caused more Eskimos to drift into the Fairbanks area look ing for work.
 Jackson said white churches in Alaska have adopted programs to include the Eskimo, but expan- sion of such programs is needed to help them, parucularly the ES- kimo youth.
 Industrialization of southeast ern Alaska has produced more steady employment with the op- eration of the Ketchikan pulp mill. He said this counteracts some of the poor salmon catches.
 Families now are leaving the villages and going to Ketchikan in hope of finding reliable jobs in the plup mill or in the woods
 "More lumber and pulp mills are in prospect" reported Jack son, (which will strengthen the basic economy"

Bering Sea Partners Take First Place In
 City Softball League
By KARL NESTVOLD

First round action in the Nome City Softbal League ended last night as the National Guard nine defeated ACS 28-6, while in the second game the Bering Sea Pan thers edged the Polar Hornets 14-12.
 The Partners completed the first round of play undefeated, finishing in first place with a spotless 60 mark.
 The Hornets, with a 3-3 mark, were second, the National Guard squad, with two wins and four losses, finished third, followed by the ACS with 1-5 league record.
 An extra frame was required to decide the Partners Hornets contest, as it was all tied up at 10-10 at the end of the seven regulation innings. However, the Partners came up with four runs in the top of the eighth while the Hornets could muster only two markers in their half of the inn ing.
 In the first game of the eve ming the National Guard squad scored in every inning, including 15 runs in a big fifth frame, to power their P run margin of victory.
 Many thanks are extended by league players and officials to Sgt William Granfield and Sgt. Roy Neyland for their fine um- plring services. These two freely volunteered their time to capably handle the umpiring duties of the 12 games in the first round of play.
 The league has tentatively de- cided on a second round of ac- tion to begin shortly, although a definite schedule has not yet been set up.
 Also on the Nome sports scene, Little League baseball Wednes- day evening saw the Little Polar Hornets win their third out of four games from the Boring Sea Panther Cubs 1913. Saturday evening the two teams meet again at 7 pm. at the Nome field dia- mond.

nizance Of Mr.. Miller's assertion
that his conscience would not
allow him to name others.
However commendable may
be regarded the motive Of the
defendant in refusing to disclose
the identity on the ofiicial posi-
ton Of another with whom he
was in association, lest said dis
closure might bring trouble
on him. that motive and that
refusal have been removed from
this courts consideration by the
decision Of the Circuit Court OF
Appeals :" in the contempt
case Of labor organizer John T.
Watkins. now before the Su-
|preme Court.
In that case the appellate
court had commented that "the
fact that such an inquiry or In
vestigation may reveal something
or expose something is inciden-
tai and without effect upon the
validity Of the inquiry"
Judge Mclaughlin declared
that:
However persuasive It might
be to urge upon the court
consideration Of the element Of
DEFENDANTS frankness and CO.
operation with the committee in
answering all other questions, in
connection with the determine
ton by the court Of the sentence
to pronounced 1t remains
clear that such element can have
no bearing on the courts deter
mination of the defendants guilt
or innocence. :"

third known test Of that missile.
One launched last September
was reported TO have Travelled
more than 5000 miles--twice
the specified range for an inter.
mediate missile-and climbed to

was no immediate reliable esti-

The Air Force made an at

failed to clear the launching

Secretary Wilson has ordered
that the Air Force be assigned

that the Army would be per.

on the Jupiter for a time.
Subsequently 1t. Gen. James
