The last chapter in a story
that began in June, 1949. may
be written Wednesday when
what was once estimated as
more than 100000 worth of
art and antiques go on a police
auction block.
Oddly enough, the man who
formerly owned the collection
was evicted along with it from
three apartments in succession
in the last II years. At least
two Of the evictions were for
failure to pay the rent.
After the last eviction, Ed
ward Bradley Dewey, great

Tobriner Won't DivuIqe
Police Reply to Judge

District Commissioner Walter
N. Tobriner refused today to
release a police memorandum
answering Juvenile Court Judge
Orm w. Ketcham's opinion
criticizing the quizzing Of
youthful offenders at police
stations.
Mr.. Tobriner said release of
the police viewpoint "is not
in the public interest"
The memorandum, delivered
to the Commissioner yesterday
by Police Chief Robert v. Muir
ray, is believed to include some
criticisms of policies at Juve-
nile Court.
Judge Ketcham last week re-
leased the 11-page court opin-
ion, regarded as a new policy,
reflecting serious doubts about
the truthfulness of children's
statements during police inter-
rogation. The judge, in trying
an assault case against -four
youths, refused to admit evil

youths at police stations.

"I pulled the phone all the

call the firemen."
Mrs. Penn said she finally
called the fire department from
a store across the street. Both
floors of the two-Story brick

by the blaze.
The second floor of the

At 100, the Fuss Is Nice
BY JEREMY FOSS
Star Staff Writer

There was happiness at the
Little Sisters of the. Poor Home
for the Aged yesterday.
You could see it in the faces
of the Sisters as they got the
presents ready in the bright
smile of Olga Anderson, 81, as
she tipped through the hall in
her wheelchair with the D. C. Ii
cense tag on tie back. And you
could hear it in the firm 103-
year-old voice of Mrs. Mary
Nealie Anderson-no relation
to Olga-as she sang slightly
off-key: Sweet Mother, dear
Mother, I give you my heart
and soul :"
It was all for Alice Lyles,
who at an even 100 thought all
the fuss-a three-layer cake, a
load of presents and a card
from President Kennedy-"just
fine"
It doesn't take much to make
Mrs. Lyles happy. "YoC don't
want what you're not used to-"
she declared.
Sitting straight in her chair,
her sightless eyes strangely
bright, she smiled at the past.
Il can remember the time
my mother would buy a big
piece of candy for a penny and
break it up among the 10 of us.
We thought we really had
something"
Those were the days in
Calvert County, Md, when Mrs.
Ly1es watched over her brothers
and sisters while her parents,
newly freed slaves. worked in
the fields. When she was big
enough her mother sent her out
and Mrs. Lyles wound up work.

dollar a month.
II used to save for a dress
and a pair of shoes, but couldn't t

the shoes, and then when 1 was
ready to buy the dress the shoes

If the police are dissatisfied
with Judge Ketcham's opinion
Mr.. Tobriner said, they have a
right to ask the Commissioners
to take the matter to the office
of the corporation counsel for
appeal to a higher court.
Chief Murray also delivered
to Mr.. Tobriner a report on
juvenile offenses for the month
of March. This report, expected
to be released shortly by the
Commissioners, repeatedly
shows that crimes by youths
rose last month to a record for
recent wears.

A somewhat mysterious dam
which may or may not be
built-continues to plague the
establishment Of a C&O Canal
National Park.
The dam question turned up
at yesterdays hearings on the
proposed park, held by a Sem
ate Subcommittee on Interior
Affairs.
While not appearing in oppo-
sition to the idea of the park,
representatives Of the National
Rural Electric Cooperative As
sociation warned Senators that
if the park is established it may
be difficult to get a dam built
in the future.
Appearing for the associa-
ton, Charles A. Robinson, jr.,
said park legislation should
contain safeguards which would
forbid the Interior Department
from developing the park up
river from River Bend for ap-
proximately 35 miles.
Engineers Still to Decide
The Army Engineers, who
have been studying the future
water needs of the Washington
Metropolitan Area, have only
suggested River Bend as a fu-
ture dam site. 1t is expected
the Engineers will decide this
question by next summer.
But Mr.. Robinson argues
that if the park service gains
control of the area before the
dam is recommended, enough
political support could be won

Police to Sell Antiques
Of Admiral Dewey Kin

Inspector Ashley A. Ader-
holdt, chief property clerk of
the Metropolitan Police De-
partment, said yesterday that
was when the police took over.
"On an eviction, when the
tenant leaves the furniture
and household goods on the
sidewalk where thieves and or
vandalS could get at it. we
bring it down to our ware
house and try to find the
owner" Inspector Aderholdt
said.
IF they don't claim it within
six months, we can auction it
off and the money goes to the
District" This particular COL
lection has been in the ware
house for 18 months, he added.
To be auctioned are more
than 1000 books dating from
the early 10Th century; Oriental,
French. Italian, English and
American antique furniture; an
old naval officers cooked hat
with Dewey" printed inside
the sweatband, and a naval
dress sword with ''T. M. Dewey"
inscribed on the blade.
There also is a wide variety
Of silverware, China, Candida
bras, carved statuary and more
than 80 paintings, which ex-
perts have told Inspector Ader-
holdt may be very valuable.
COrreggi0, Goya Works
In September, 1858, when Mr..
dewey, then 81, and his wife,
the former Selma Sinclair, were
evicted from another apartment
at 3060 Sixteenth street NV.
for failure to pay the rent, Mr..
Dewey was quoted as saying
the art collection was worth
more than 100000. At that
time, it included some original
works of Correggio and Goya.
Whether they still are a part of
the collection is not known.
Mr.. Dewey also lost an earlier
legal battle in landlord-tenant
court when he voluntarily left
an apartment at $500 Massa-
chusetts avenue NV. The land
lord had been trying to evict
him for two years, and Mr..
Dewey carried the fight to the
United States Court of Appeals.
But finally. in June, 1850, he
moved out of his own accord.
The last known address for
the Deweys is the Seventeenth
street address. The owner of
the building, the Smoot Sand
& Gravel Corp, filed a request
for Mr.. Dewey's eviction on
May II, 1859, charging he had
failed to pay his rent for the
period December l to April 80.
Couldn't Be Found
The Smoot corporation al
legged Mr.. Dewey owed $475. On
May 26, Judge Milton S. Kron-
helm, jr., ruled in favor of the
landlord, and on June 9, United
States marshals carried out the
order.

yesterday his agency-as well
as the Interior DEPARTMENTS
behind a section of the park
bill which specifically enables
the Government to step in and
use parklands for "non-park
uses" if such a necessity comes
up in the future.
The bill, introduced by Sena-

Also, the bill would authorize

to purchase about 10000 acres
of land adjacent to the canal
over a period of five years, at
an estimated cost of SIS mil
lion.
The Interior Department also
has dropped from the bill plans
