To the augmented Board of Com missioners he would assign such ad ministrative functions as now held by Congress to name streets and fix the time of turning street lights on and off. If the Commissioners should be given the authority to control Dis trict taxes and appropriations, Mr. Dirksen declared, some of the mem bers of Congress “who are crying the loudest for turning over the local government wholly to the District would be the first to squawk if such a thing actually were done.” Attorney General Murphy, in ex plaining his objections to the law department that would be created under the Kennedy bill, declared: "The division of the function of conducting criminal prosecutions between the two offices (Department of Justice and the United States attorney for the District i that would result from these provisions ap pears to be highly undesirable as not in the interest of either effi ciency or economy. "Similarly, the proposed trans fer of a part of the functions of the United States marshal to the De partment of Public Safety is like wise undesirable." Mr. Murphy suggested that the provisions cited be modified so as to continue the present system, under which all criminal prosecu tions in the District Court, as well as criminal prosecutions In the Police Court, except those involv ing local ordinances, are conducted by the United States attorney. In addition, the Attorney General said that in the District there is only one court of original jurisdic tion, the United States District Court, which combines the juris dictions which the United States District Courts and the State courts have elsewhere. Then, he declared: "I am not aware of any jurisdic tion in this country in which the function of prosecuting crimes in the same court of original jurisdic tion is divided between the two officers, independent of each other, appointed in a different manner. Such a division would not be con ducive to efficiency or economy." — - Marbles Immoral A century ago the juvenile story | writer had troubles indeed.

Center Market, opened on December 15, 1801, was also a municipal center, as a small building called City Hall was a gathering place for townspeople. In the market game was sold which boys would shoot in the nearby swamps; and here President Jefferson and other statesmen were wont to come to make personal selection of the produce. The Market burned in 1870 and was rebuilt in 1872.
