Practical Parking Cure
ForD.C. Askedby Duke

Engineer Commissioner
Charles M. Duke told the new
advisory committee on parking
legislation yesterday that it's
time ito get off center and
come up with a constructive
solution" to the Districts criti-
cal parking problem.
Brig. Gen. Duke said he is
confident that "a solution can
be worked out that will not
harm any elements of our COM
munity :"
He said the serious parking
problem here has an adverse
effect on business, traffic and
visitors.
He said the purpose of the
recent action in naming the
advisory committee composed
of representatives of leading
business organizations here was
to develop a sound program SO
that legislation can be submit
ted to Congress by the commits
sioners early next year.
The District Motor Vehicle
Parking Agency had proposed
legislation several months age
to create a parking authority

bill the District could either
have operated the garages or
the District could either have
operated the garages or leased
them to private operators.
However, the District Com
miSsioners took no action on
this measure because it was OPP
posed by the Metropolitan
Washington Board of Trade.
The Board of Trade contended
that a public parking authority
Of the type envisioned in this
bill was not necessary.
Elected chairman of the new
parking advisory committee
was Donald c. Rosinski, who
was also CHI airm an of the
Board of Trade Committee that
wrote the adverse report on the
parking authority legislation.
Named committee vice chair
man was Worthington H. Tai
colt, representing the Wash
ington Board of Realtors.
The committee asked for
current information on esti-
mated future parking needs
and agreed to meet again on

TIME-TESTED
Duncan Puts
System in
Bridge Book
BY JOHN SHERWOOD
Star Staff Writer

When a nonbridge player
reads a book about bridge, he
realizes almost at once that he
should never be reading a book
about bridge.
For instance, they tell you
this: OK Il trick, OK IA plus,
or u trick, to 2 tricks for a
singleton (x), u to 1 trick for
a doubleton (Ax), ETC."
This is like discovering a CHA
code for some kind of secret
invasion. Or maybe like looking
through your big broth er S
geometry text when you were
in the sixth grade.
Anyway, the pointer those
who know bridge-is that Dis
trict Commissioner John B.
Duncan has written a book
about it. His New Dimension
Bidding in Contract Bridge"
written after % years of test
ing. offers a kind of cure-all to
those who would like to learn
bridge bidding quickly and
without a long drawn-out study
and long -drawn-out family
arguments.
For example," Mr.. Duncan
writes in his introduction, aft
er the bidding is over and be-
fore dummy's hand goes down
on the table, your partner may
be able to say to you, Partner,
your hand holds 5 diamonds to
the King and Queen, 5 hearts
to the 40, the K of spades and
a singleton club" This will
probably sound pretty impress
sive to bridge players.
In any event" Mr.. Duncan
adds, "the beginner can now
defeat the wise guys! Also, the
advanced player can now de-
feat the expert who fails to
learn this system"
The final words of Mr.. Dun
cans first book are, and we
quote: IF responder holds
more than 8 he bids again
adding the extra tricks to the
final contract of opener"
But the above was taken out
of context, so maybe that's why
it sounds so much like the be-
ginning.

CHARITY BEGINS AT TRACK
ABird'inthe Handwriting

A retired Baltimore doctor
finally took delivery this morn
ing on the shiny black Thun-
derbird he won in a charity
drawing at Laurel Race Track
10 days ago-but only after a
police handwriting expert had
been consulted.
1t wasn't that anyone Sus-
pected the good doctor of any
funny business. 1t was just
that the charitable ladies
couldn't decipher the name and
address on the winning ticket
stub.
The Case of the Inscrutable
Stub came to light November
IL after the International, a
horse race at. Laurel, when the
wife of the British Ambassador,
Lady Ormsby- Gore, held up the
winning ticket in the annual
car drawing sponsored by Chill
dren'S Convalescent Hospital.
The name on the winning
stub, it developed, had been
written either in invisible ink
or, more probably, with a dry
ballpoint pen. There was a
faint impression, nothing more.
The ticket number was an
nounced, but nobody came for
ward.
The hospital ladies were ter
ribly dismayed. They could
make out a DIR" and the last
letters of the name: ally or
"olly." And they could decipher
Baltimore on the address line.
But a check of Baltimore Vel
low Pages turned up no doctor
whose name had the right end
ing.
Finally the ladies took their
problem to Ira Gullickscn of
Kensington, Md, a retired doc
ument examiner FOR the Metro
politan Police Department. Mr..
Gullickson studied the tiny stub
long and hard. and eventually
gave the ladies a name and
address: DR.. Wendell P. Daily,
Ais Calvin avenue, Baltimore

Joseph D. Tydings, the Federal

of two former Congressman last
month, started his own drive
for a Capitol Hill seat today by
resigning as United States at
torney for Maryland.
Mr.. Tydings, IS, former

THAT THE PROJECTED

THAT THE PROJECTED
Archives building should
house a national film library
was the idea of Will Hays,
Harding'S Postmaster Gen
eral, who became the first
movie car after the Holly
wood scandals of the 20s. He
hoped it would give the
movies prestige.
He influenced the design
of the building. There are
vaults under the roof for
nitrate (exploSive) film AN
explosion in a vault would
merely puff up through the
roof; would not build up
pressure that would blast
through the walls.
BY the time the building
opened in the mid-1930S,
FDR was President, Will
Hays had lost his influence
and Hollywood had lost in
terest. The movies We're
gaining prestige through the
annual award Of Oscars.
NewSreel companies gave
the Archives their accumu-
Iations. Government depart
ments deposited their docu-
mentarieS. In recent years
most of the old nitrate films
have been copied on acetate
(non-exploSive).
The vaults with their film
sy roofs aren't needed. They
could only contain a small
fraction of the 80 million
feet in the collection today.

The
Rambler
Sees Bottle
For New Britain
By GEORGE KENNEDY

The presentation of the
Ford accumulation of news
reel and documentary films
earlier this week to the Ma
tional Archives interested
this writer in this form Of
hiStoriography.
Archives already has more
than 80 million feet Of film
taken by combat photog-
rapherS in the two World
Wars and Korea and news
reels going back to the start
of the century.
The other day I stopped in
the scanning room on the
top floor of the Archives. So
many researchers from TV
and movie studios ask to
see the films that it would be
impossible to have projection
rooms for them all. They
use scanning machines, two
reels turned by hand as the
film passes over a light and
under an enlarging lens.
For sound films there are
machines operated by cleo
tricity which can be watched
while listening on ear
phones.
The recent TV spectacular
'"The Yanks Are Coming"
shown on Armistice Day, was
made largely from Archives
films.
When a researcher finds
footage he wants, he orders
it duplicated in the film lab
oratory in the basement of
Archives and buys the copy.
Production of theater films
such as 1.-The Longest Day"
calls for color film and
sound. But researchers from
the studios buy thousands of
feet of combat film so that
the directors and the actors
can see how it really was.
Miss May Fawcett, who has
been cataloguing the films
for many years, said that the
great interest now is in
World War I.
Nathan Knoll, who is pro-
ducing THE Guns of Au-
gust" comes here himself to
examine the Archives films
on the opening days Of World
War I. He won't entrust the
work to a researcher. He has
bought thousands of feet.

A House subcommittee was
told today that postal inspec-
tors are conducting 20 investi-
cations. including one in the
District, of operations by debt
consolidation firms.
The information was given
to a House District subcom-
mittee by one of the Districts
legal officers. Assistant Cor
poration Counsel Robert F,
Kneipp.
The subcommittee opened
hearings today on a bill that
would ban the business of
"debt adjusting" -taking over
payment of a mans bills for
a fee. The measure was intro
duced by the subcommittee
chairman, Representative Aber-
nethy, Democrat of Mississippi.
Mr.. Kneipp told the subcom-
mittee that the District Com
missioners favor the bill.
20 Investigations
During his testimony, Mr..
Kneipp passed on the informa-
ton that 20 Investigations of
debt-consolidation operations
are being conducted in the
United States by the Post Of
flee Department.
Locally, Mr.. Kneipp said,
there is the possibility of in
dictments being handed down"
In supporting the Commits
sioners' position that this type
of debt firm should be banned,
Mr.. Kneipp said the business
is the type Ito lend itself to
grave abuses against distressed
debtors, particularly those in
the lower-income brackets"
Mr.. Kneipp told the sub
committee the general pro-
cedure seems to be for the
debtor to turn over his pay
check and bills to a firm, which
then proceeds to pay off the
debts for a fee of IL per cent
or more.
District officials. he said,
have had complaints that some
firms take the entire fee be-
fore they begin to pay off the
bills.
Asked by Chairman Aber-
nethy what service the firms
offer, Mr.. Kneipp said: May
admit to bafflement on that.
Several subcommittee men,
bers, however, later indicated
they were favorably impressed
by testimony from a SpokeS-
man for a national debt ad-
Ijustment organization that
there is a clear need for a serv-
ice in this field.
Controls Sought
The spokesman, M. C. Purdy
past president of the American
Association of Credit Coun-
sellers, Inc, called for legisla-
ton providing strict controls
over the business.

A bill to control, rather than
prohibit, the debt consolidation
business has been introduced
by Representative Diggs, DEM
ocrat of Michigan.
Testimony Covered
The subcommittee hearings,
which will resume Monday, will
cover testimony on Mr.. Digs
measure.
One subcommittee member,
Representative Springer, Re-
publican of Illinois, said he had
been told that since Mr.. Aber-
nethy's bill was introduced last
September, one District firm
has moved to Maryland, which
has no control regulations.
Both Mr.. Springer and Rep
resentative Sisk, Democrat of
California, indicated interest
in regulating the debt business
in the District rather than
banning it.
