This is one Of the most unusual sec

of about six square miles, in which
are a great number of scattered hot

possibilities than now appear.

AUTO DEALERS FAVOR
TITLE LAW In DISTRICT
Claim Legislation Would Protect
Innocent Car Buyers From Un-
scrupluous Vendors.

Discussion of the merits of auto
mobile title laws, followed by a vote
to advocate such a law for the Dis
trict of Columbia, marked the regular
monthly meeting of the Washington
Automotfve Trade Association held
last night in the City Club.
Rudolph Jose explained the ad-
vantages of title law. emphasizing
the protection afforded honest buy
ers and sellers of motor cars, and
expressed the opinion that there
should be federal act providing this
safeguard. If this is not possible of
attainment, he said, the District
should have its own title law to pro-
tect innocent car purchasers against
INSCRIPTIONS venders of automobiles.
Walter B. Guy, legal counsel for
the association, was instructed to
prepare and submit the draft of a suit
able law for the organization to
sponsor.
C. H. Warrington, chairman of the
service committee of the trade asso-
citation, was named to represent the
local dealers at the automotfve main
tenance and equipment show to be
held in Detroit next week.

the water is acid or alkaline in sub
stance.
Borings, DR.. Day said, already have
been made to determine power pos
sibilities. The plan is to pump the
steam generated below the surface
into turbines where it will be trans
formed into power. One similar ex-
pertinent was made with success in
Italy during the war and 800 horse
power generated by the plant This
still is in operation and has proved
a commercial success.
Sources of Power.
The use of hot spring areas as
power generators, according to scien-
fists here, is likely to have a pro-
found effect on sections of the coun-
try where there are no other sources
of power and where fuel is difficul
to obtain. These areas are numerous
in the Rocky Mountain region and a
number, probably, have not been
brought to the attention of scientists
The geophysica1 laboratory is in
terested rather in the nature of the
hot springs themselves than in the
present commercial possibilities and
considers the Sonoma valley an ideal
place to conduct the projected studies.
The field work Of the laboratory,
which has been extensive in other
years, will be curtailed largely this
year on account of an unusual num-
her of changes in personnel during
the winter which has upset plans for
geological explorations, although a
number of field parties probably will
go out later in the summer

British Judiciary System.
Our lawyers are bound to be inter-
ested, too, in the system under which
the British judiciary exists. With
the exception of the lord chancellor,
which is a political Office and usually
changes hands every time a new
government comes into power, John
Bulls judges sit on the bench as
life appointeeS. Once they don the
robes they are judges always. If they
resign or retire they never re-enter
practice. There is no law compelling
them to live on their pensions. They
do so by tradition. In the single
case of the lord chancellor, he is for
hidden by statute from again taking
briefs as an attorney. He retires
on his pension of $4,000 a year, his
official salary.

Mr.. Hodson expressed the deepest
appreciation for this action.
Plan In Final stage.
The co-ordinating and unifyins
plan for welfare agencies in the Dis
trict is reaching the final stage aimed
at for twenty years by the board Of
charities, Secretary George Wilson
said today. During that period the
board has been seeking, he said, to
center all authority of institutions
supported by public funds in the
District Commissioners, no matter
how many or how varied the admins
trations of such organizations are.
At a meeting last Friday the board
of charities approved and indorsed
the bill drafted by the welfare
legislation commission for this pur-
pose, even though the identity of the
board of charities would be sub
merged in the agency which would
take it's place, the board of public
welfare.
Although some claim that the pub

put up several direct and straight
from e-shoulder arguments, while
