B—2 w THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, TUESDAY, APRIL 20, 1937. CURB ON PAROLES ASKED BY CHTIZENS Legis!ation to Bar Early Re- lease of Second Offenders Urged. Yegislation to prohibit the parol- ing of any second offender in the Dis- trict of Columbia was urged in a reso- lutfon unanimously adopted last night by the Lincoln Park Citizens' Associ- ation meeting in the Bryan School. The action was taken following a statement of Joseph Gammel, chair- man of the Laws and Legislation Committee, that W. W. Baker of the Federal Bureau of Investigation ‘was &lain last Friday in a Midwestern city by a parole convict. Gammel quoted J. Edgar Hoover, director of the Justice Department, as saying, “In every instance in which F. B. I. agents have been killed in course of duty their deaths have been at the hands of paroled convicts.” The resolution urged the district attorney of the District to present to the House and Senate the draft of a bill to refuse parole to any second offender in the District who has been confined to either a State or local Jail On the recommendation of Gam- mel the association adopted resolu- tions favoring one bill pending in Congress and opposing two others. They favored a bill to provide for the etemi-annual inspection of all motor vehicles in the District. The group felt that the appalling number of deaths in the city from motor acci- dents indicates the need for such a bill. Opposition was registered to & bill drafted to protect the buyers of pota- toes in this city on the grounds that they are the faod of the masses, with nature affording perfect sanitation and any attempt to grade, pack or crate them would add to the cost to the consumer. The other bill opposed was to provide one day of rest in eeven for District workers.
