they don't spend it,"

Advisers Ask Stiff Laws
To Reduce 7 roffic Toll
BY SAM EASTMAN
Star stan Writer

Stringent new easure
aimed at curbing the Districts
traffic accident toll, including
mandatory Jail sentences for
drunken drivers and use of un-
marked police cars, were urged
today by the city's top traffic
safety advisers.
The recommendations came
at a special meeting called by
the Commissioners in the wake
of five traffic deaths recorded
so far this year.
The session, attended by
m m bers of the Citizens
Traffic Board. the Traffic Co.
Ordinating Committee and top
police officials, was not an en-
tirely harmonious one. There
was a good bit Of finger point
ing at District agencies who
may not have come up to par
on the traffic safety job.
The Commissioners were
urged by Arthur J. Sundlun,
chairman of the Citizens Traf-
flc Board to:
/. Seek legislation which
pose jail sentences for drunken
driving.
2. Pass a regulation for auto
matte revocation of driver per-
mits on speeding convictions
Mr.. Sundlun did not specify at
what speed the revocation rule
would take force.
Nine recommendations came
from Assistant Engineer Com
missioner Jess P. Unger, head
of the Traffic Co-ordinating
Committee. which included:
/. Widespread use of radar
equipment with a rowing radar
detail of officers.
2. Use of unmarked police
cars by uniformed officers in
daylight hours only for traffic
safety enforcement.
3. Increased checkups by
precinct policemen on persons
whose permits have been re-
voked to insure that they are
not driving illegally.
Criticism Of the police de-
partment. the courts and the
Commissioners, came from vari-
Gus committee chairmen of the
trAfiic board. In response Pc.
lice Chief Robert V. Murray
said sharply that he did not
think his department should
be made a whipping boy" fol

ONE NEW MEMBER was to
be introduced, John Kyl,
Republican of Iowa, who won
a by-election to succeed the
late Steven V. Carter, Demo-
crat.
Ben F. Jensen of Iowa led
the new member down the
aisle, a tall, powerfully built
young man who raised an
extra-large right hand when
he took the oath.
Then he sat down in the
front Republican row with
his sponsor. Mrs. Edith
Nourse Rogers who was next
to him was the first to con-
gratulate him. The second
was Fishbait Miller, Door
keeper of the House.
Several routine matters
followed. One was the Joint
notification that Congress
was in session to be sent to
the President. The Majority
Leader Mccormack and
the Minority Leader CHal-
leck) stood in the rear with a
paper while the clerk an
nounced the nature of the
document. Then FiShbait
grabbed it and ran down the
aisle as though the notifiGa-
ton of the President had the
urgency of an end run.
Then John Mccormack of
Massachusetts,, the Majority
Leader, stepped forward and
began what sounded like a
history Of the world. 1t was
a brief one, however. He said
the worlds history had noted
many great men and that
one that was sure to be in
cluded was the Speaker.
Charles Halleck of Indiana,
the Minority Leader, sec
onded everything Mr.. Nc
Cormack had said with the
exception of the wish that
Mr.. Rayburn would be speak
er forever. If the Republicans
win control Of the next Con-
gress, Mr.. Halleck might very

possibility Of underground

On another matter, the plan
ners approved location Of a
l74-unit public housing prof.
ect in the center Of two blod.ss
on the northeast and southwest
corners of Kentucky avenue
and C street Sc.
Commission officials said de-
tailS of the design have not
been completed. including the
question whether the buildings
would be low or high elevator
structures. The public housing
would occupy the center por-
tions of the two blocks which
are not now IN use.
The planners also approved
the location of a statue to Ad-
miral Richard Byrd along the
ncSSh side of Memorial avenue
the attractive drive which
extends from the Virginia side
of the Arlington Memorial

Attends
Texas Duy on Hill
BY GEORGE KENNEDY

The opening of Congress
yesterday, on the House side
at any rate, became an event
to celebrate the 18th birth
day Of Speaker Sam Rayburn.
The Speaker held a press
conference in his Office be-
fore the opening, and it was
so crowded it seemed that
more than 100 reporters must
have crowded their way in.
In late years the Speaker
has been reported to be a bit
grumpy and even grouchy at
times - and this from men
who love him. Some new
members are afraid of him.
But he certainly was in
good spirits yesterday. show
ing the tolerance and cour-
teSy which have made him
so admired over the years. He
wanted to be sure that every
ones questions were an
Swered.
Time has wrought little
change in him - something
frequently true of men who
become bald in early man.

domed Uranium, that has
been such a familiar sight at
official functions for so many
years, looked just the same.
And, he confided, he has
not changed in another re-
Spect. He weighed 176 pounds
40 years ago and that is just
what he weighs today.
The Rambler went to the
House Press Gallery. BY this
time the Speaker was in the
chair and the roll call was
being completed.
