Dr. Edward Ewing Pratt, who is con-
ducting a civic tour of Europe this sum

with the partys experiences in London
and Amsterdam.
The class has discussed many problems
with many experts since starting on Its
travels. Thomas Adams. expert in city
Manning, and c. s Locke, secretary of
the London Charity Organization, talked
to them at the Hotel st. Ermins, in Lon

Dr. Pratt writes;
In 1909 there was enacted in England
a law empowering the local government
board TO plan certain new sections, which
are being opened UP for development
along model lines. The act was intended
10 prevent the wildcat developments,
which are as common IN England as they
are I'm the United States, and to keep d
speculator from building grdiron and I'M
beautiful suburbs in the English cities
which, i'm the next generation, Will be-
come Slums of the worst type.

one step after the other is taken in draw
Ing up very carefully the plans for any
given district, how the aim Is never 10
permit more than twelve houses 10 the
acre; that the contour of the land shoulq
be followed in laying out the streets, ana
that the houses, as far as possible. should
be made harmonious in design and con-
struction.
Large areas are taken for park pur-

ATTACK ON CHILD
IS DENIED BY MAN
IN MARYLAND JAIL
Armand Bestor Will Be
Given Hearing at Upper
Marlboro Tuesday.

Armand d. Bestor. manager Of the
Southern Timepiece Company. who is
being held In jail at Upper Marlboro.
Nd, on grave charges preferred against
him by Sheriff Artie Suit. of Prince
George county, will be given n hearins
before justice of the peace at Upper
Marlboro next Tuesday at noon.
Bestor. behind the prison bars at
Upper Marlboro, would make no state
ment today except to deny that he was
guilty OF any wrong doing with Lula
CLANCY, the twelve-year-old waif aud
foster child, who is his involuntary ac-
cuser.
II realize the gravity OF the charges
against me-" he said, "but they are not
true. have nothing to say, except to
repeat that am innocent OF any wrong
DOING
Further than this Bestor Win not talk.
He seems to be in q highly nervous
condition, and apparently is bearing
up with difficulty.
Though Mrs. Bestor, wife OF the &C
cused man, collapsed when news of his
arrest and the charges against him
were made. known to her. Il is likely
she win visit her husband in Jail, She
will be permitted to see him and talk
with him at will. Mrs. Bestor Is twen-
ty-fve years old. and has two children,
girl Of six and q boy Ave years old.
Two months ago the, family moved from
Washington to a country place two
miles south of chesapeake Junction. 1t
was near the new Bestor home that
the alleged acts for, which, Bestor IL
being held were supposedly committed.
Bestor was arrested. In Washington
last night just rs he was about to
enter his place of business at 1227 III
street northeast. He waived all for
malities when brought to Police Head
quarters, and was taken Immediately
to Upper Marlboro by Sheriff Suit.
Charges against Bester are based
upon the story told by little Lulu
CLANCY, whom he had promised to
guard and raise as one of his own
children.
Attention of the authorities was first
attracted by the gossip of two colored
women, Bertha Brown and Addie Her
rard, who related a story Of seeing and
