Thli move to virtually cleir the immediate Washington area of military traffic was reported i under discussion by officials of the armed forces and civil aviation agencies. A series of reports on near- erashes between military and commercial aircraft in the Washington area has built up strong pressure for such action. The first step in that direction was taken yesterday when the Civil Aeronautics Administration ordered all combat-type aircraft military or civilian stay away from the crowded commercial field.

National is the only civil field in the area available to large planes. That move may be followed by another step, suggested by several members of congress, under which Anacostia Naval Air station and Boiling Air Force base in southeast Washington would be Converted to building sites and parkways. Once among the most famous military airfields in the nation. Anacostia and Boiling field lie end-to-end along the eastern shore of Potomac river direct-. 11-' ly across from National airport.

The military also used converted bombers to carry high ranking officers.

Concern about crowded air- lanes over the capital reached a peak after the collision of a civil- owned P-38 fighter and an Eastern Airlines DC-4 in which 55 persons died Nov. 1. Public hearings by a board of inquiry ended Monday. Three Since then, Eastern Airlines has filed three complaints of close flying by military planes. Military pilots in turn have filed two complaints against Eastern, one involving a low turn over Boiling and one concerning flight over a restricted area while bombing practice was in progress.

The ban on military planes 9t National airport does no apply to planes operated by the military transport service. One such craft is President Truman's personal plane, the Independence. Vice President Barkley uses a converted B-17 bomber from time to time. Whether new rule applies to this plane was not known. Boiling and Anacosta are now used mainly by reserve pilots and by active officers getting flying time to qualify for flight pay.

If the fields are closed, such flying could be switched to other fields in the area. Divorce Johnson filed a petition for divorce from Charles Johnson in district court yesterday. If'' NOW thru SAT. Complete Show as late as 8:30 jp.ni. Continuous Sat.

Gravitt's cry that he was being persecuted and convicted him of involuntary manslaughter in the traffic accident death of Margaret Mitchell. The jury reached its verdic-t against the slim, 29-year-old former cab driver in less than an hour yesterday. It recommended that he be sent to Mail from 12 to 18 months for the death of the world-famed author of "Gone With the Wind." Superior Court Judge Walter C. Hendricks delayed the sentence until he could hear an appeal from Gravitt's attorney. The ex-cabbie also was charged with drunken driving, speeding, driving on the wrong side of the street and other traffic violations.

Pulitzer Winner Hal Boyle NEW YORK makes tlio tired business man tired of this office?" asks Leonard interior decorator.

"A man's office should be like his den at and relaxing. "But what is the average office like? It has an oversize that's to show he's an important swivel chair, two stiff chairs for visitors, and a leather- covered sofa. On the wall is a map of the United with flags stuck in it to impress his customers with how many salesmen he has across the country." i Hutton clucked disapprovingly. It's too sober dull. It gives him no lift Badly designed rooms make people Ha! Boyle tired and they don't realize why.

A man can work more efficiently, and make a better impression on his associates, if his office doesn look like an Hutton is full of concrete suggestions to put a little umph in the American business office. He feels it should have some music, a hidden bar for entertaining prospects, no glaring lights, and colorful draperies that can be drawrt pushing a button. "And no wall pictures or personalized photographs," he said. "Nor do you have- to have stiff heavy chairs just because some crazy guy decided Gothic was a good style. "You should have comfortable chairs arranged in a friendly seating group.

Conference tables are no good. Who ever felt at ease at a conference table." If the business man must have files in his office, Hutton said, they should be recessed into 'the walls. "Files only remind the visitor he ought to be back in his own office working. How can you sell him an idea if he isn't at ease?" Hutton thinks the tired business man doesn't fare much better when he goes home to rest from his dingy office. "He comes into a living room 'decorated' exactly in a what-do- they-use-these-days manner.

Then the poor man has to sit. in some uncomfortable reproductions of some ugly style that never was a style but just a period. "So the man's unhappy. at his office, unhappy at that's why so much business is done in restaurants arid cocktail bars." Clients make odd of decorators. Hutton hasn't lined any walls with fur.

but he had done a in solid.leather., "Once ajihome for'a wealthy man in. MonteiCarlo," he recalled. "He lived on a cliff. As a joke I suggested he ought to pump, salt water from the Mediterranean into his swimming pool. he said.

And he did it." The Austrian national anthem was written by Wolfgang Ama- dous Mozart. The permanent home of the United Nations in New York City is expected to be completed by the fall of 1951. Show Times MARKET QUOTATIONS OMAHA CASH GRAIN OMAHA, Nov. 17. WP) -Wheat: No.
