AUTHORITIES EXPLAIN * SITUATION TO D. C. HEADS Proposals, However, Do Not Cost as Much as One-Fifth of Five- Year Program. Punds for construction of a num- ber of new school buildings and pur- chase of additional school sites will be sought by the Commissioners in their 1938 budgetary proposals, it was indicated today as the city heads met with school authorities on appropri- , ation requests for the next fiscal year. As the conference started, one of the | Commissioners said he was convinced | of the need for expansion of the school plant. He indicated the Com- missioners may recommend from $2.000.000 to $3,000,000 for such use. ‘The Board of Education has request- ed appropriations for the next fiscal | year amounting to $17,525619, or | $5.030,000 more than was granted for the current year. The board asked an increase of $3,900,000 for buildings and grounds, and an in- crease of $1,100,000 for maintenance and operation. Officials Back up Plea. , Appearing to justify the request made by the Board of Education were | Mrs. Henry Gratton Doyle, president: | Henry I. Quinn, a member; Charles | B. Degges, secretary of the board; Dr. Frank W. Ballou, superintendent of schools; Robert L. Haycock, G. C. Wilkinson and J. J. Crane, first as- sistant superintendents; Assistant | Superintendents H. A. Smith and | Chester Holmes, and School Statisti- | eian John F. Brougher. Some time ago, school officials draft- + ed & proposed new five-year building program, the total cost of which was estimated roughly at $48,000,000, or more than $9,500,000 a year. The 1938 budget was completed before all the estimates were in for the pro- | posed five-year program. For this reason, if for no other, the school expansion proposed for the next fiscal year does not run to as high a cost as one-fifth of the proposed new five- Yyear plan. Even so, the Commissioners have indicated requests of the school offi- cials for next year will have to be cut, because of the financial diffi- | culties the District now faces. With a net gain of 1,342 pupils over the first day’s enrollment of last year, teachers in the public schools were looking forward to the end of the week when they expect the annual rush of | pupils to end. Yesterday's total en- rollment was 84,500, as compared with 83,158 & year ago. Some surprise was expressed by officials who had counted on a later opening to put the increase close to #2500, but the fact that a full-day holiday is scheduled tomorrow may have had some effect. The schools this year opened a week later than | usual, but before the opening some | authorities said they expected the holiday for the parade of the Grand | Army of the Republic tomorrow would | delay the entrance of many pupils. Otherwise opening day got under ! way without a “hitch.” Some delay | was encountered in handling new | pupils entering advanced grades for the first time, who failed to get their certificates of admission last week. Three days were set aside for new entrants to obtain their certificates, but for most of the morning yesterday boys and girls filed into the Franklin Administration Building to have their credentials checked before they could be entered at junior or senior high schools. Difficulty With Beginners. ‘The same difficulty was encoun- | tered with beginners, children from | 5 to 6, who sought to enroll for the first time in the first grade or kinder- garten. Many had failed to obtain their birth certificates and the ad- ministrative officers at Franklin had to seek out the records from the Dis- trict health officer. The anticipated congestion con- tinued at the junior high schools. To- tal enrollment in these was 18,081, a gain of 735 for the first day. The in- crease means the junior high schools will continue to be closed to non- | resident pupils. There is & possi- | bility that reassignment of pupils and | teachers may be necessary. | At Eastern High School the enroll- | ment jumped from 2,855 on the open- ing day last year to 2,922 yesterday, a gain of only 67 pupils. Eastern necessarily will continue its two- platoon system, dividing its pupils be- tween morning and afternoon classes, sending & maximum to the morning classes. Central High School gained 133, with a total enrollment of 2,456. . UTILITIES TO MAKE ACCIDENT REPORTS Strict new regulations requiring public utilities to make prompt re- ports of accidents affecting their serv- ices were issued today by the Public Utilities Commission, effective Oc- tober 1. One of the major purposes was to ties subject to the control of the tommission. Agents of each utility must report immediately by telephone to the com- mission any accident involving loss of life or serious personal injury. Written reports must be filed within three days. g The street car company and every operator or owner of a passenger bus must file before the 10th of each month a summary of all accidents during the preceding month which resulted in personal injury or death. Without permission from the com- mission, operators of transportation services may not make any repairs Autopsy Ordered To Learn Cause Of Woman’s Death Mrs. Elizabeth Zegowits Found in Gas-Filled Kitchen. An autospsy was scheduled today to determine the cause of the death of Mrs. Elizabeth Zegowitz, 67, and deaf, who was found dead yesterday in the kitchen of her home at 612 Q street. When found by two of her sons, William and John, the woman, ac- cording to a police report, was sitting on a chair, her head muffied with a dish rag, and slumped over three open gas jets on a small range. A canary cage in the kitchen was empty, indicating, police pointed out, that the pet had been moved to a cage in another room. An Emergency Hospital physician pronounced Mrs. Zegowitz dead after the fire rescue squad failed in an attempt to revive her. Coroner A. Magruder MacDonald said the autospsy was requested by relatives of the woman, whe told him she had been suffering from heart trouble. The coroner said Mrs. Zego- witz had not been dead long before the body was discovered. Mrs. Zegowitz, a widow for 17 years, is survived by two other sons, Joseph and Frederick, and three daughters, Mrs. Elizabeth Clements, Mrs. Mar- garet Eckert and Mrs. Frances Brown, all of this city. GARNETT T0 SEND REPLY T BROWN Letter to Give Views on Plan for Prosecutor to Aid Police. United States Attorney Leslie C. Garnett planned to reply by letter today to the suggestion of Maj. Ernest ‘W. Brown, superintendent of police, that an assistant United States at- torney be assigned regularly to col- laborate with police in homicide in- vestigations. Brown proposed the plan last week in the interest of better co-ordina- tion of law enforcement functions of the two agencies. Garnett was out of the city when Brown’s letter was received at the | United States attorney’s office. He is understood to have completed a draft of his reply this morning. Prior to receipt of Brown's letter Garnett had expressed interest in such a plan, although he refused to commit himself until he had made a thorough study of it. In his letter, Brown pointed out that other cities are using the system and are finding it of mutual benefit to the district attorney’s office and the police department. Commissioner Melvin C. Hazen, supervising the Police Department, favors the proposal. He discussed the matter with Maj. Brown before the latter proposed the plan to Garnett. Under the arrangement advocated, Garnett would assign one of his legal assistants to police headquarters, to work with detectives in the initial in- vestigation of major crimes, especially homicides. The assistant United States attorney would follow such cases through to trial stages, thereby becoming thoroughly familiar with all evidence and testimony. Police would benefit through first- hand legal advice on competence of evidence they may collect.

Young Washington The Foening Star WASHINGTON, D. C, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1936. MILK PRODUCERS ASK PRICE BOOST IN CAPITAL AREA Take Advantage of Clause in Agreement Permitting Amendment. 4-CENT-A-GALLON INCREASE IS SOUGHT Consumers’ Council Executive Re- iterates Intention to Seek Senatorial Probe. Higher prices to Washington milk producers were asked of the Agricul- tural Adjustment Administration to- day, little more than 24 hours after Federal control of the District milk market went into effect. Taking advantage of the clause in the milk marketing agreement permit- ting applications for amendment at any time, the Maryland and Virginia Milk Producers’ Association asked for & 4-cent-a-gallon increase. Effect of such a move on retail prices is unpre- dictable. The control agreement sets the price | at $2.82 a hundred pounds, with pre- | miums for high butterfat content and | high heaith and barn ratings by the District Health Department. ‘This figure was disappointing to the producers’ assoclation, at whose re- | quest the agreement was written, but in a meeting a month ago it decided to bide its time until control became effective and then seek a price amend- | ment. The association controls the votes | of 1,100 of the 1,300 producers for the Washington market, and an amend- ment can be passed by approval of | two-thirds of the producers, provided Secretary Wallace agrees it is neces- sary. Matthew F. Boyd, vice chairman of the Washington Consumers’ Council, at once reiterated his intention of | seeking a senatorial investigation of the Maryland and Virginia Associas tion. “Fear of such a move,” Boyd said of the request for a higher price, “was | one of the strongest objections of the Consumers’ Council to the marketing order during the public hearing in July.” "The association protests -that the | increase is necessary to repay the farmer for his feed expenditures, higher than usual because of the drought. A. A. A. officials refused to countenance this plea in writing the agreement. \PROBERS GET CLAIM OF FRANK MISUSE Br the Associated Press. A request by Senator Vandenberg, Republican, of Michigan for investi- gation of alleged misuse of free mail- ing privileges in Michigan during the | recent primary campaign was in the hands today of Chairman Lonergan of the Senate Campaign Expenditures Committee. Lonergan said the Vandenberg re- | quest, and also a telegraphic protest | from Louis B. Ward along the same line, would be laid before the com- mittee Monday. Vandenberg's charge involved al- leged distribution of campaign pub- lications through the mails under Government franks, which permit transmittal postage free. Ward wired Lonergan that abuse of the franking privilege during the cam- paign “is the most flagrant violation ever recorded.” A similar complaint has been filed by George W. Welsh, Democratic can- didate for Governor in Michigan, with the Post Office Department. The de- partment recently announced its in- vestigation showed that none of the publications in question actually had entered the mails. | | Starting out on her career is Helene Kennedy, 5, shown with her m:ther,’ Mrs. W.

Lombardy, 43, of 3407 Eastern avenue today faced Police Court hearing under the negligent homicide act and Traffic Court hear- ing on a charge of driving on a sus- pended permit. A coronor’s jury ordered him held on the first count after an inquest yesterday in the death of Mrs. Mary Maguire, 79. He was to have been arraigned on the traffic violation charge yesterday, but the case was deferred until tomorrow. Lombardy’s car plunged across & sidewalk and struck Mrs. Maguire July 8 while she was mowing the front lawn of her home, 3100 Tenth street northeast. She died more than six weeks later. Autopsy indicated her injuries may have complicated other ailments. Tells of Fainting. Lombardy, a former navy yard em- ploye, said he had fainted while driv- ing to a doctor for treatment for a sick headache, and that he knew nothing of the accident until he re- gained consciousness on Mrs. Ma- guire’s lawn. He experienced simi- lar fainting attacks in 1932, Lombardy said. Lombardy was arrested September 14 by Motor Cycle Policeman C. H. Miller, twelfth precinct, who charged Lombardy was operating on a sus- pended permit. Lombardy told the coroner’s jury that he had not driven since he received notice of his permit suspension September 8. The Maguire inquest jury also heard the cdse of William Baker, 40, of Arlington, Va., fatally injured Au- gust 30 in & fall from the running board of a car driven by Mark P. Sul- livan of Indianapolis, with whom he was arguing. Baker's death was ac- cidental and Sullivan is blameless, the jury found. Witnesses testified there had been no indication that Baker was pushed from the running board. Four persons, one a 68-year-old man, were injured in traffic mishaps yesterda; y.

With the Dutch ker Boy, Inc., strike ended last night, 18 bakery salesmen went back to work today, under an agreement which was re- ported to include complete unioniza- tion of the shop at 807 Monroe street northeast. Although the bakery salesmen had been the only ones on strike from the firm for union wages and hours, the bakers' union also co-operated in the strike and helped to picket both the plant and the sales trucks. Bakers continued to work there, but will now be admitted into the union under the new agreement. Settlement of the strike was an- nounced publicly last night at the S mmaphieas, Temple by Rabert hi ‘empl y Lester, I:u\ne- agent for the bakery salesmen. His simple announcement that Dutch Baker Boy had “signed” was greeted with an outburst of applause. Lester and Charles B. McCloskey, business agent for the bakers’ union, were given a rising vote of appreciation for their work in the strike. According to Lester, the agreement settling the strike was signed last night by Paul Hannah, attorney for the company, and John Keane, attor- ney representing both the bakery salesmen and 3 % PFull details of the pay scale were ot disclosed. At the shop last night there were about 20 bakers and helpers on duty. Railways of Great Britain carried 99,150,032 passengers in a recent month. » [A. B. C.

It was pointed out that such ma- chines are now being operated in about 300 places holding class C li- censes. Action to force their re- moval is being taken on advice of Corporation Counsel Elwood Seal un- der a provision in the District liquor law which says that proprietors who dispense wine or beer may not conduct any other business on the premises which is not incident to the sale of food, it was explained.

This is bad business, for the conservation of lJand and water means also the conservation of people.” Pleading for more extensive studies of long-range weather conditions, Bowman said: “The rain that affects a holiday or a shipment of perishables may seem important at the moment, but it is the effect upon vegetation and or have perishables to ship or can af- ford a holiday.” Earl H. Clapp, associate chief for- ester, recommended a three-point pro- gram for watershed control: “1.

BY JAMES E. CHINN. Population records at the District Jail were shattered today as a result of a sudden increase of 133 prisoners, sentenced by the courts for law viola= tions over the last week end. Overcrowded long before the ine crease, the jail literally is bulging un- der the strain of the latest influx. ‘The population now has reached an unprecedented total of 812. Cells are jammed far beyond capacity, the pris- oners being herded together like sheep in a pen. One hundred and seventy three of them slept on the floor last night because there was no other place to sleep. Only once in recent years has the jail population even approached its present peak. That was two years 8go, when the total reached 778. Relief from the present situation is not immediately in sight. Ordi- narily the jail population fluctuates from day to day and week to week as | prisoners are transferred either to the reformatory at Lorton or the work house at Occoquan, Other Places Overcrowded. But the work house is overcrowded, too. A similar situation exists at the reformatory. Work house officials have sent word to T. M. Rives, superintend ent of the jail, that space will be available there this week for not more than 90 of his inmates. Nearly all of the 133 new prisoners are tagged for work house terms. ‘The most serious condition at pres- ent exists in the north cell block of the jail, where men committed for such misdemeanors as intoxication and disorderly conduct are quartered. Conditions are nearly as bad in the south cell block which houses the men sentenced to death in the electric chair and others who are charged with fel- onies and are awaiting trial or action on appeals from court verdicts, etc. The women’s dormitories at the jail likewise are taxed beyond capacity. There are 228 men packed into the small cells in the south cell block, which had a designed capacity for | 182, Including the 133 new arrivals, there are nearly 350 in the north cell block, which has accommodations for 198. The women'’s dormitories, where there are 104 prisoners, was con- structed for a capacity of 74. Until recently 30 of these women were forced to sleep on the floor. Double deck instead of single cots were pressed into use to remedy this situation. But in the cell blocks where the men are locked behind barred cages, there is little that can be done to improve conditions. The cells are too small to accommodate any more bunks or cots. As a result the surplus prisoners are given a straw mattress and assigned to a space on the floor. Repulsive conditions prevail in some of these cells.. In one of them are nine men, all suffering from a social disease, cramped in a space about the size of a modern apartment kitchen- ette. Four sleep on the floor; the others on bunks suspended from the wall or & cot in a corner. Epidemic Fear Present. Serious disease epidemics have broken out under conditions not as bad as those now existing at the jail. So far the institution has been fortunate. In the event of a contagious disease outbreak, however, it would be virtu- ally impossible to isolate the victims or cope with the situation. There are only 16 rooms in the infirmary for the treatment of isolation of the sick. The daily average population of the jail has nearly doubled in the last 110 years, and penal officials look for | no decrease in the next decade, but | rather a substantial increase. No | accommodations, however, have been added, except a wing on the east, which was built in 1927 to house the women prisoners. ‘The daily population of the jail, of course, has grown with the increase in commitments. A statistical table prepared by Supt. Rives graphically reveals the growth..In 1917 there were 7,402 commitments, with a daily average population of 213. In 1927 the commitments totaled 11,926 and the daily average population 416. In the last fiscal year there were 18,280 commitments, and a daily average population of 586, which was exceeded only once in that 19-year period, in the 1935 fiscal year, when the come« mitments reached 20,851 and the daily average population 565. Costs Rise. Similarly the cost of operating and maintaining the jail has increased, as well as the per capita cost. In 1927 the appropriations totaled $53,250. The per capita cost was $24530 a year. For the last fiscal year the appropriations amounted to $167,692 and the per capita cost $286.16. Supt. Rives has asked the Com- missioners to approve an item in his budget for the coming year of $1,- 800,000 to build a new and modern jail on a site in the vicinity of the present Home for the Aged and In- firm at Blue Plains, D. C. The build- ing, he believes, should have accom= modations for at least 1,000 prisoners to meet the anticipated population in- crease in future years. For many reasons Supt. Rives is opposed to any more to modernize and enlarge the present jail. The main part of the present building, he points out, was erected in 1876, and its modernization and enlargement probably would cost more than a new and up-to-date building. He also be- lieves ‘the jail should be located in an outlying section. The present jail was, when it was built 60 years a-o, but in the meantime a thickly settled residential section has developed al- | | | charges and ordered King's money re- funded.
