Frantic Raising and Lowering of Flags Over Capitol Hard on Architect Washington -WD- Members of the House Appropriations subcommittee may be having strange dreams these nights dreams about a harried man frantically raising and lowering flags over a flretrap Capitol while congressmen race about in cut-rate limou sines. The appropriations commit tee is a receptacle for all man ner of laments. Among the unhappiest of all it has heard is that of Capitol architect J. George Stewart. Stewart is getting sick and tired of running flags up and down a flagpole like a mani ac, thousands of them a day. It might not be so had if he wasn't afraid the whole place might burn down around his ears while he's at it. Playing a glittering count erpoint to Stewart's dirge was House clerk Ralph R. Rob erts, reporting merrily that House leaders won't have to shell out $11,000 each for their limousines any more. A car builder stands in the wings eager to supply them for a yearly rental of $500, includ ing insurance. The business about the flags came about because of a congressional venture into capitalism. The pitch is that these flags architect Stewart is working his fingers to the bone on can be had f o r a price. The price is $6.25 for a big one and $2.91 for a little one, plus a letter to your con gressman saying you want for your very own a flag that has flown over the Capitol. The congressman will buy the flag from the House sta tionery store, and then dump it on Stewart. Stewart has it sent up to the capitol roof, where a gasping policeman is running them up and down the flagpole like crazy. On July 4, I960, always a big day in the flag business, Stewart reports that his men ran 5,131 flags into the breeze, and his secretarial staff got writer's cramp certifying that each flag had indeed flown ov er the Capitol. In all of 1960, 16,013 flags got the business.

John and Eddie became in volved in an argument. Ed, saying, "I'll take care of you, John," pushed John with con siderable force. John fell to the ground and was seriously injured. Eddie was sued for the injuries to John and for medical and1 hospital expens es. Judgment was recovered against Eddie. THE COURT HELD: Proof indicated that Eddie, despite his tender years, had the ca pacity of mind to know and did know, as would any nor mal child of six years, that his act, under the circumstan ces, was offensive and it was clear that Ed intended to in flict an offensive bodily con tact. The push was the proxi mate cause of John's fall and the resulting injuries, and for such injuries and their conse quences the infant defendant was liable, even though the proof failed to show an intent on his part to inflict bodily harm or that the fall and re sulting injuries .. were or should have been foreseen. The court further said that intent to harm need not be established, and that the ab sence of it does not absolve the defendant so long as the act was done with intent to inflict an offensive bodily con tact.

That's not all he wants. He's afraid the Capitol is going to Burn down. "I don t want to be an alarmist," said Stewart in a placatory tone, "but I am very much concerned, and have been for years." He said the 100-year-old wooden floors and doors are dried and dangerous, and ev ery legislative office is rife with combustibles. . What Stewart wanted was $3,500 for a dust collector for the basement carpentry shop, which would help avoid the threat of explosion. He got more than he bar gained for.
