ZONE COMMISSION
MULTI Y|NG FOUGHT
Cathedral Heights Citizens to
Urge Other Groups to
/ Support Body.

Agitation for retention of the Zoning
Commission, with its present power, was
instituted by the Cathedral Heights Cit
zens' Association, meeting in st. Alban
Parish Hail. Wisconsin and MasSachu-
setts avenues, last night, when resoiu-
tions were adopted requesting other civic
associations and the Federation of Citi-
zeus' Associations to aid in the defeat OF
"A pending court action which would nul-
lily the acts of the commission.
Should the court decide adversely to
the rulings laid down by the Zoning
Commission respecting the use to which
Il property may he put ii was pointed
out the beauties of the Nations Capital
would be marred. and property values
would be so upset as to cause panic.
President H. NJ. Frampton declared that
the overthrow of the zoning law would
result in an .'unsightly, unregulated and
unrestricted array of buildings, destroy
ing the beauty of the city. which is ma
tioual in aspect"
Selfish and designing real estate
brokers'" he added would be in their
glory"
Without the vote and representation,
ii was said ii would be incumbent upon
the citizens to band together in an ef-
fort TO thwart the change. The resolu-
ton provides that counsel be employed
combating the court action.
Want Signs Used.
Approval was given to the pro
posed amendment to the coming reg
uIations restricting structures to the
building line established by previ-
Gus construction in any block already
built up so per cent of its frontal
area. Placing of signs on any prop
erty to be considered for rezoninG
will be urged upon the commission.
1t was stated that this method would
bring the matter to the attention of
everybody concerned more forcibly
than at present.
The almost impossible condition OF
some of the streets in this section
resulted in resolutions requesting the
paving of Fulton street from Wiscon-
sin avenue TO Thirty ninth street,
Ordway street from Wisconsin ave-
nue. to Thirtyfourth street, Norton
street from Wisconsin avenue 70
Thirty-siXth street, and a large sec
ton of Macomb street.
Because several hundred children
I'm the West End are compelled to so
long distances to gain the advan-
tage of a business education in the
high schools, a resolution was adopted
favoring the proposal of the Board
of Education to establish a CONNER
cial course at Western High School
next Fall.
1t was voted to hold a special
meeting shortly to discuss the school
needs of the community. Supt. Frank W.
Ballou will be invited to address the
assembly. The Connecticut Avenue
and Cleveland Park Citizens Asso-
Citations and Parent-Teacher Associ-
ations will be asked to attend l..

Husbands in Biggest
New York Raid

NEW YORK, N. Y, Sept. 15.-All
night activities by federal authorities
in their roundup of suspected undesir-
ables in Chinatown, which netted to-
tai of 500 Chinese, resulted today in
134 being sent to Tombs prison to await
removal to Ellis Island for deportation
Dozens of the suspects were found
with white women who said they were
the mems wives. Some of these women
produced their marriage licenses, while
others went to the federal building to
plead for their husbands.
Chinatown was wildly excited through
out the night as federal authorities
rounded up suspects singly and in
groups, taking them to the federal
building for questioning. Patrol Nag-
ons made trip after trip between the
federal building and the Tombs in
transferring to prison the men held for
deportation. The roundup, unprece.
dented in its extent, came within a few
hours after leaders of the On Leong

BOND SET in
MURDER CASE

$4,000 Bail After
Madrazo Staying

Henley w. Williams, Brownsville at
torney charged with murder in connec-
tish with the fatal shooting of Emilio
Madrazo in the First National Bank
here yesterday, was released yester-
day afternoon on $4,000 bond to appear
before the district criminal court grand
jury, now in session.
The attorney waived examining trial.
---Justfee of f=the-Peace -Fred-b:- Kowafs-
XII held the inquest over the body of
young Madrazo yesterday, and found
that he died from gunshot wounds in
flicted by Henley w. Williams.
A charge of murder was filed against
Mr.. Williams by Sheriff Sam Robert
son, and bond was set at $4,000 by JUS
tce Kowalski. The lawyer was releas-
ed when the bond was signed by J. G.
George and J. 7. Canales, local law
yers. There were about 30 other per-
sons who wanted to sign the bond,
Sheriff Robertson said.
According to Justice Kowalski there
were three witnesses to the shoot
ing. These were Miss Frances Ford
and Miss Helen Bearden, both employees
Of the bank, and d. E. Champion, also
an employe of the bank.

right shoulder, breaking the shoulder
bone.

of a we'll known Spanish family of
Matamoros His father, the late Mi
guel Madrazo, died about six months
ago. His mother, Mrs. Vicente Ma
drazo, lives in that city with her two
daughters, and one of the two surviv-
ing sons.
The surviving daughters are Misses
Delfina and Alicia Madazo, both known
in Brownsville, and. the, brothers, Mi
guel, who lives in Matamoros, and an
other brother who is now in Louisville,
Kentucky, attending school.
Emilio Madrazo attended school In
Kentucky, and returned to work in the
First National Bank here before leav-
ing about two years ago, for Oklahoma
and other points. He had been in Mat
amoros several months, living with
his family there, and buying cotton for
for a Matamoros gin.
Funeral services for the deceased
will be held at the Catholic church in
Matamoros at a o'clock this afternoon
it was announced today. The body was
taken from the bank building to the
Hinkley chapel.

to Pick Mayor Today
After Bitter Battle

with \ fight for presidential nomina-

For eight years John F. Hylan, demo-
cratic protsse of William Eaadqll \,

the largest city in the United States.
During his administration the ci.y has
been confronted with many pressing
problems. Subway construction, relief
of traffic congestion. housing. suppress

and garbage disposal have been some
of the most vital questions. DUNG six
Of those eight years the mayor had a
nominally united party behind him,

Split Follows Musphy's Death.
Early in 1924 Mr. Murphy died and
with his relaxing grip came the split
that he had combatted successfully for
many years. His death marked the
starting point of two democratic fac.
tions. one that looked toward Mr. Hylan
and Mr.. Hearst for leadership in city
affairs, the other that turned to Gov.
Smith, The latter's group showed more
and more dissatisfaction with the may
or's accomplishments in solving New
York's problems and in displaying it's
intention that he should be supplanted.
There was no open break hntil the
democratic leaders of the five boroughs
of New York gathered together to Sc
lect their slate for today's primary and
the election. Tammany Hall, under it's
new leader, George W. Olvany, and the
Bronx county cghmittee. broke definit-

COMMISSIONERS
RILE CITIZENS
OF MADISONCO.
Resignation by Saturday
Demanded; Deal With
Dallas Firm to Col
lect Back Taxes Cause
lBu the Associated Pressl

MADISONVILLE, Tex, Sept.
15.-County Judge T. Ferguson
of Madison county and the en-
tire commissioners court have
been given until aSturday to re-
sign by a group Of farmers and
business men from over the
county. The ultimatum was is
sued following mass meeting
here Monday attended by about
500 citizens.
The action came as the climax Of a
quarrel caused by the recent action OF
the commissioners court in contracting
with a Dallas firm for the collection
Of delinquent taxes in the county. Ac-
cording to the general understanding
the commissioners agreed to pay the
firm $500 and a percentage on all de-
linquent taxes collected
Private citizens went into court in
connection with the matter here T two
weeks ago and obtained an injunction
restraining the commissioners from
carrying out such contract. A rehear-
ing was had on the injunction last
week, however, and the district judge
here now has the case under advise
ment.
In the meantime citizens got infor-
nation that new contract had been
entered into with the Dallas firm by
the commissioners court and it was
this report that led to the mass meet
ing Monday. Citizens taking a leading
part in the meeting state that Judge
Ferguson denied that a new contract
had been signed, but that one of the
commissioners said it had been signed
Discussion Of the situation at the
meeting resulted in the virtually unan-
imous demand on the officials to re-
| sign. If the designations are not sub
mitted by Saturday further action will
| be taken, leaders stated
Citizens say that the delinquent tax
roll is not unusually large.
