Legislation to Protect
Investors Here Is Ready

Attorney David c. Acheson and
a committee Of securities ex-
perts, regulation of local in
vestment firms would be ad-
miniStered by the Public Util-
tiles Commission - to be re-
named the Public Service Com
mission.
To make sure the investment
firms are financially fit to
handle their customers funds,
the measure would require
broker dealers to put UP a
maximum Of $4,000 in bond.
They would have to maintain
q minimum capital Of $4,000
Broker dealers and their
statesmen would have to be IL
censed. A license could be de-
MED or revoked for q variety
Of reasons ranging from lack
Of experience to fraudulent
practices.
Action During Proceedings
The administrator would be
allowed to move swiftly against
an investment firm to prevent
further losses to investors while
proceedings are pending.
This procedure was specif-
ically cited by SEC Chairman
William L. Cary when he told
a Congressional committee that
q local authority could do what
the SEC cannot do.
The legislation would bring
the District into line with state
controls over investment firms
now on the books Of 40 States.
Many Of these States have re-
Gently strengthened their laws
to provide increased protection
TO investors.

Legislation to protect Wash
ington investors from unscru-
pulous or unqualified invest
ment firms has cleared the
Budget Bureau and goes to
Congress today.
The measure has been urged
for nearly q year-Since The
Star investigated the prac-
tees Of questionable invest
ment firms and established
that one-third Of the 100 firms
then dealing in stocks and
bonds here could not operate in
most Of the States.
Some Of the firms have since
been put out Of business by the
Securities and Exchange Com
mission, but the SEC has en-
phasized that the District needs
q local law to deal with It's
local problem.

Milk Output
In D. G. Area
Sets Record

Milk production in the
Washington area hit an all
time high last year. members
Of the Maryland and Virginia
Milk Producers Association
were told here today.
Production was 1,010. 600, 900
pounds, increasing nearly II
million pounds over the 1861
total. The figures were revealed
at the 43d annual meeting Of
the association at the Shera-
ton-Park Hotel today.
Association President j.
Homer RemSberg noted that
the increase in milk production
was accompanied by q decrease
Of II in milk producers In the
market area. He attributed the
decline to conversion Of farms
to real estate and to the price
cost squeeze.
Mr.. Remsberg. in his annual
report to l.542 producer mem
bers, said the Nations growing
milk surplus Is caused by five
factors:
/. Increased consumption Of
milk has not kept pace with in
creased production.
2. The price per 100 pounds
has been declining steadily
while practically all production
costs have been increasing.
re
3. Many producers fear that
national milk quotas may be
imposed upon them. and there
fore turn out all the milk they
can.
4. The adjustment upward at
times of the support price has
encouraged additional produc-
ton when 1t was not needed.
S. Vicious and unjustified
criticism has been leveled
against milk and milk products
as food in many quarters.
William B. Hooper, general
manager and secretary-treas-
urer OF the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
association, added. I'VE are
promoting plans that will en-
able q producer 10 set his own
level Of production.
IF he overproduces, over
and above the base allocated,
the excess will be paid TO him
at the surplus price and not
be blended with the milk OF
another producer who may
elect 10 maintain a different
production policy"
Also participating In today's
annual business meeting are
Glenn Heitz OF the Farm Credit
Administration; z. M. Norton,
secretary OF the National Milk
Producers Federation: Miss
Jean Clarke, executive director
OF the Metropolitan Washing
ton Dairy Council. and Edward

1T is STILL UNFINISHED,

IT is STILL UNFINISHED,
but 1t has been operating for
Just about a year. Still to be
constructed is a road to NH
the main reason the IL
brary is where it is-and a
big computer is to be in
stalled next month.
The Rambler had not seen
DR.. Frank Rogers, director
Of the library, for some time.
The last meeting took place
in that mournful old build
ing at Seventh street and
Independence avenue S.W.,
once the location of the
library.
At that time, DR.. Rogers
was a colonel in the Army.
The present library, after a
long fight on the Hill, grew
out Of the old Armed Forces
Medical Library. Both the
colonel and the library we're
moved out Of the Army and
under the direction Of the
Department Of Health, Edu-
cation and Welfare.
1t came close to being
built in Chicago, Ill.
But the wishes Of Senators
Hill of Alabama and John F.
Kennedy Of Massachusetts,
prevailed. They sponsored
the bill authorizing the new
library at q cost Of about
$6.8 million, next to NH.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1963-02-25

BUT THE PLACE Is worth
seeing. Sunshine streams in
when possible and the main
floor Is bathed in warmth.
DR.. Rogers feels 1t is prob
ably better for the library to
be out from under the Army
and into HEW. For one
thing, 1t is not competing
in the Defense budget with
"a Texas tower" as he puts
1t. And foreign countries are
more apt to turn over their
medical journals and reports
TO a nonmilitary wing of the
United States Government.
This Is one of the main
functions of the library.
Each month 1t produces for
some 1000 subscribers a fat
booklet called the Index
Medicus."
From all over the world,
the library collects medical
literature, translates and
catalogues 1t.
In q fast, sweeping tour Of
the building, DR.. Rogers ex-
planned the library is like an
iceberg - there are three
floors Of book stacks under
ground, each one about an
acre in size.
He described the design Of
the unusual roof as a ny
periodic paraboloid" which
sounded suspiciously like a
disease TO The Rambler.
But 1t didn't show up in
the Index Medicus."

Riders Court Victory Fails
To Roll Back Transit Fare

March 6, 1860, and January
10, 1861, is obviously impossible.
In order that transit riders In
general might benefit from
its decision, the court directed
that q fund or reserve Of the
excess nickels collected during
the period be set up. Since
the company keeps records Of
how many token and how
many cash fares 1t collects,
1t is known that the fund
will be about 81 million.
Effect on Fares
Possible uses OF the fund,
the court said, would be to
offset rising costs requiring
fare increases or TO make
fare reductions possible. The
Washington Metropolitan Area
Transit Commission must make
the decision on how 1t u to
be used.
Meanwhile, the company IL
still charging q ascent fare
under a January 10. 1861, PUG
fare order. This superseded the
1860 order which the court
voided.
To cope with this problem.
the court has invited a motion
TO stay the 1861 order insofar
as 1t continued in effect the
25-cent fare. Appellants Leon
ard N. Bebchick and Leonard
s. Goodman have said they
will file such q motion.
II they succeed in rolling
back the fare to 20 cents, what
Is TO be done with the extra
nickels collected between the
1861 order and the PRESENT.
They might well argue that
these nickels, which add up
TO about SO million, should be
added to the 81 million already
destined for the rider fund.
Further Recourse
Even II the Appeals Court
should not act on their motion.
they have q further recourse.
They have appealed the 1851
fare order. (They wanted Q
reduction in the token rate:
the PUG maintained the fares
ordered in the 1860 case) This
appeal. by agreement with D. c.
Transit and the PUG, Is lying
dormant in the District Court
awaiting agreement among the
parties TO proceed.
Completing the many layered
legal tangle over d. c. Transit's
flares Is the company's current
application TO the transit COM
mission for elimination Of to-
kens in favor Of q straight as
cent fare.
So many new factors beyond
the 1860 and 1851 cases enter
into the current fare increase
request that II Is impossible TO
say what the WMATC viii do.
A rollback OF the fare TO 40
cents before the commission
decides on the case would re-
quire q whole REORGANIZATION.
Unless the legal aspects OF
the 1860 and 1861 cases are
handled much more quickly
than Is customary, a WMATC
decision In the current case Is
more likely TO come before the
formal establishment OF the
rider fund, or q rollback 10 20
cents.
II the agency denies an In
crease. then no further blocks
would appear 10 be in the way
Of a 20-cent fare. II the courts
so order. II II grants one, and
a rider fund Is subsequently
set up. then II would face q de-
cision whether TO use this 10
order a fare reduction or TO
hold off future increases.

The
Rambler
West of
Wisconsin
By JOHN McKELwAY

One Of the areas architec-
tural gems is the National
Library of Medicine.
The Rambler dropped by
recently. 1t is out Wiscon-
sin avenue, on the left, Just
before you get to the tumble
Of buildings that makes UP
the National Institutes of
Health.
NH has lost the look of
a campus 1t once had. No
theme has been maintained
In the buildings which have
cropped up in the last five
years. Today 1t resembles
several factories capable of
producing plastics, hub caps
and lawn mowers.
But the library stands
strikingly alone, under an
impressive glass roof that
seems to have something
japanese about 1t. The
building is on a slight rise
that once was the fairway
Of a public golf course

court on whether 1t will hear
an appeal.
The likelihood OF delays be-
tween initial court victories by
consumers and the flow of re-
funds, or other remedies for
excess rates collected. Is illus
trated by the only two recent
cases of this nature in the
District.
On June 10, 1850, a District
Court judge overturned an in
crease given to the Washington
Gas Light Co. by the District
Public Utilities Commission.
The company lost in the Ap-
peals Court and was denied re-
view by the Supreme Court.
But because Of legal and me-
chanical details, 1t was Sep
TENDER /. 1851. before Wash
ington gas customers began re-
ceiving q $l.2 million refund.
Time elapsed: approximately is
months.
PEPCO Lost Case
On December 10, 1858, the
Appeals Court reversed a lower
court decision upholding an in
crease granted to the Potomac
Electric Power Co. This was
the same turn Of legal events
as has occurred TO date in the
D. C. Transit case.
Ironically, the PEPCO In
crease was appealed by D. C.
Transit's predecessor, the Cap
ital Transit Co. 1t stood to get
back about 100000 OF what 1t
had paid PEPCO from 1851 to
1858 In higher rates for power
to run its streetcars.
Even assuming d. -. Transit
does not try an apo al TO the
Supreme Court. or some other
legal tactic. the mechanics Of
carrying out the Appeals Court
ruling in the fare case appear
somewhat more complicated
than in the gas company case.
The gas company, with some
exceptions. could find the Gus
toners who had refunds COM
ing to them.

paid q quarter on buses between

IN THOSE DAYS, 1t was
difficult for the colonel to re-
main reasonably calm. The
fight for a new building to
house the finest medical lit
erature collection In the
world had been going on for
40 or so years. The roof
leaked. And, in one section,
chicken wire was strung
around a balcony to prevent
volumes from falling on IL
brarians below. It was a fire
trap.
The library was also the
only public bGilding in
d Washington which had an
outside toilet.
Today, any change in the
colonel, or DR.. Rogers, Is not
discernible. He Is always
worried about something and
the other day he had the
computer on his mind and
all the bugs he'll have to
deal with once it's in place.
He suspects that a num-
Der Of people are coming
into the new reading room,
simple and as fresh as air,
to study something other
than medicine or to Just
escape for q while.
The new building has also
drawn so many tourists or
visitors that DR.. Rogers had

The 25-cent cash bus fare
will probably be with Washing
tonians for a while in spite OF
a significant legal victory last
week for two riders who want
the fare rolled back to 20 cents.
Further legal moves by the
ID. c. Transit System could
annul the victory or delay for
months the taste of its fruits.
Still, the United States Court
of Appeals order last week is
likely to have a restraining eff
feet on any increases in the
near future. And the door is
open for a rollback Of the fare
to 20 cents.
d. c. Transit can ask the
Supreme Court to review the
Appeals Court decision. But in
two major appeals Of utility
rate cases In recent years, the
high court has refused to grant
review.
Grounds for Review
The grounds for asking re-
view may well be different in
this case. The Supreme Court,
when 1t does grant review,
usually requires that the case
involve one or more Of these
factors: some novel legal ques-
ton; a question which has led
to differing decisions in various
Federal courts, an issue Of gen.
eral Importance, or an appar-
ent gross miscarriage Of justice
