JUVENILE COURT
INCREASE ASKED

District budget officials have
recommended a $1,733,185
budget for Municipal Court for
fiscal 1864, an increase of
5000 over this year.
Walter Bramhall, clerk of the
court, said he had originally
asked for $1,839,656, whic h
would have covered four new
clerical employees, supplies and
equipment.
Juvenile Court, meanwhile,
was recommended for a budget
of $879,848 or nearly $4,000
more than last year.
Court authorities said its in
crease would go to pay the SAL
aries of the two newly
appointed judges, Morris Miller
and Marjorie Lawson, and their
clerical staffs.
Court officials added that
budget officials have left out
one big item in their request
$53,143 to pay for the courts

After doing away with - at
least as poets go - Bernard
Shaw'S quip that Americans
and British were two nations
divided by a common language,
Sir Herbert added a surprising
name to the heap Of poets
which have been talked of in
the three-day meeting.
Henry James received his
praise for the United States
representative poet of enough
universal significance to stand
with Homer. Vergil, Shake
speare, Racine, Dante and
Goethe. To any protests that
James is not a poet in the same
sense as Shakespeare or Dante,
Sir Herbert said Poetry, in
this largest sense, transcends
the technicalities Of diction."
In the conventional sense, do
we have any American poets?
Sir Herbert says, Walt Whit
man. I'm the interval you may
have lived down Walt Whitman
you may have shot him in
the back, but so far as the rest
of the world is concened, his
soul still goes marching on"

make a transatlantic impact
was Ezra Pound, but Sir Her

While both hunters and
race horses are thorough
breds, it is very rare that a
horse bred for one classifi-
cation is transferred into
the other.
Hunters are bred to be
calm, tall horses who can
take the low jumps of the
chase in their stride. Race
horses are usually smaller,
high-spirited and bred for
speed and stamina.
"All they know is co." Mr..
Kimsey said. Sometimes a

there is very little mixing"

Equitution

The horse is having a bit
of a comeback, your rowing
reporter learned at Tues
days opening of Washing
tons Fifth international
Horse Show at the Armory.
Nothing like the days
when steam fire engines
were drawn by dappled gray
Percherons. Then every plow
and harrow, every milk
wagon, every dray, was
drawn by horses-streetcarS
too, come to think of it. But
that was before the RAM
bler'S time.
The horse market was an
important center of trade in
every large city and the
Brewers Big Horses" be-
came the title of a temper
ance song.
He remembers being one
of a group of 12-year-old
boys in 1912 lying on the
grass and discussing this
changing world. A new Cad
lilac Imperial limousine had
just passed. It was COM
pletely enclosed with glass
even the chauffeur'S box.
We all agreed that the
automobile was here to stay.
We also agreed that there
was one function in which
1t would never replace the
horse. That was drawing the
hearse in funerals. That
would be too fast. We were
right, but we were wrong.
Herman Kimsey, a veteran
cavalryman who is one of
the judges of the horse
show, showed this visitor
around.
Mr.. KimSey said:
II have seen estimates
that we once had 20 million
horses, but I find that hard
to believe because our pop
ulation was so much smaller.
I don't think there were
enough people to keep so
many horses.
1--WE have 4 million horses
today, 80 per cent of them
saddle horses - and what
horSes!"
That was easy to see. A
class of hunters was coming
onto the floor to take the
low jumps on the figure 8

Threatened by
Lack Of Funds
New Revenue Source
Needed for Hiring
Of Additional Men
BY CHARLES ID. PIERCE
Star Staff Writer

Expansion of WaShington's
Police Department to the 5000
man strength authorized by
Congress will have to be de-
ferred unless the District finds
additional revenues.
This was reported by the Dis
trict Budget Office, which told
the District Commissioners that
the addition of the final 100
policemen would not be possible
in the next fiscal year unless
more money is obtained.
The Budget Office recon-
mended a $31, ,072, ,450 budget for
the department if these addi-
tional revenues become avail
able. A $29, ,688, ,760 police budget
could be financed under exist
ing revenues, the Budget Office
said.
The Police Department had
asked for $524,8 800 in its budget
to employ 100 additional po-
licemen.
Gradual BuiIdup Sought
But the Budget office said
that even if the city govern
ment gets the extra $34 million
it would need for a barely ade-
quate total budget next year,
only 1852, 400 could be ear
marked for hiring more police.
This would permit employing
additional police gradually so
that the total of new men
would reach 100 by the end of
the year.
An increase in the police
canine corps from rs to 100
man-dog teams would also have
to be ruled out unless more
revenue is obtained in the next
fiscal year.
The Budget office recon-
mended a SIS, ,483,3 1916 budget for
the Fire Department if the ad-
ditional revenues are obtained,
and said that all but $474,797
of this total could be financed
under existing revenues.
New legislation reducing the
length of the firemen's work
week from Sc to 48 hours will
require hiring 180 additional
firemen at an annual cost of
$1.2 million, the Budget Office
said.
Civil Defense Cut Asked
The $168,ss8 budget re-
quested by the District Civil
Defense Office would be cut
$4,000 even if the total gen.
eral fund deficit could be
avoided under Budget Office
recommendations.
These recommendations were
made before the Cuban crisis
developed.
The budget proposed by the
Budget Office for civil defense
next fiscal year is $127,003 if
the anticipated general fund
deficit can be avoided. A civil
defense budget of only 500, 1908
is proposed if it must be fl
nanced under existing revenues,
The Budget Office gave an
adverse recommendation on q
$36,659 request for additional
civil defense personnel. Budget
officials also said that a $25,-
200 to pay for transportation
of fallout shelter supplies from
the Navy Yard to public shell
terS in private buildings here
would have to be denied unless
more revenues are obtained.

New School
Funds Cut
From Budget
By DAVID BREASTED
Star Staff Writer

The immediate fiscal picture
for District classroom con-
struction in 1864 is blank.
School officials today cannot
count on starting a single room
to house the mounting enroll
ment in the Capital.
Because of the revenue bind,
the District Budget Offices
compilations released yesterday
left an empty column for new
school construction in fiscal
1864.
The budget estimates set a
record $61.7 million for operat-
ing expenses, compared with a
1868 appropriation of $57.2 mil
lion. Most of the increase was
due to the $4.5 million pay
increase for teachers.
Capital outlay within existing
revenues amounted to only
$4,000, a large part of this
to equip school buildings.
Apt to Stay Empty
The construction column is
likely to stay empty unless and
until the District gets ad-
ditional revenue through higher
taxes, an increase in the Fed
eral payment, and additional
borrowing authority.
School Supt. Carl F. Hansen
termed the situation for the
time being "a calamity if you
can put it in one word"
Included in this alternate
budget were four elementary
school additions, two new
junior high schools, and re-
placement of Hine Junior High.
There was also site money
for a new 1,800-student senior
high school at Fifty-fifth and
Eads street NE. to relieve over
crowding in far Northeast.
Additions Planned
The "if" budget would allow
additions to the Rudolph,
Hendley, Kimball, and Powell
elementary schools. The two
new junior high schools would
be at North Dakota and Kansas
avenues NV. and Forty eighth
and Meade streets NE, the
latter in an area of badly
jammed schools.
DR.. Hansen said that the i'm
mediate operating budget minus
the pay increase was mo
budget at all" and pointed out
that even the higher, alternate
budget doesn't reduce the
pupil-teacher ratio a Bit"

and funds for all four highway
projects blocked by Congress
this year.
The 1888 million request in
crudes $78.S million for capital
outlay, or construction. This is
about $13 million above the
budget requested for this year,
which was whitfield down by
Congress to a current construc-
ton budget of $528 million.
The request for a construc-
ton budget of $65 million was
severely criticized by highway
opponents, who charged the
amount represented a vast ac-
celeration of construction. An
even more intense controversy
is expected for the current re-
quest, which will be considered
at a Commissioners hearing
at the District Building on No
vember 6.
Clear Choice Seen

present a clear choice for the
agencies who will consider the

proposals.
The National Capital Trans
portation Agency is expected
to recommend rejection of sew
eral of the ten controversial

in the next two weeks.
