CARRY-ON
VETS TO
MOVE
Provision Must Be Made for
Disabled Before They Are
ousted, Hitz Rules

Princess Elaine Won der Lippe-
Lipski is within her rights as
owner of the premises at 1000
Rhode Island avenue, northwest,
occupied by disabled veterans,
members Of the Carry-On Club, in
asking for possession Of the house,
and exerting her legal rights as
owner.
Justice Hitz Of the District
Supreme Court decided 50 today
when he dissolved a temporary in
junction issued against her, re-
straining her from interfering in
the affairs of the club, and from
asking the members to leave the
place.
Justice Hltz's Wow.
Justice Hitz stated that the club
had produced no testimony showing
that the members are entitled to
the control Of the property.
He said that the princess and the
CLUB were engaged for considerable
time in an enterprise which went
on the rocks.
The court added that the club may
have an ultimate right in the house
'and all, but am inclined to believe
you have not"
The court said that 1t would be
advisable to send the case to the
auditor Of the court for settlement
of claims against the club and the
princess, and to straighten out the
financial tangles.
The restraining order was dis
solved by the court under the con-
dition that the really disabled vet.
Grams not be disturbed in their dom
icile at the club house until other
suitable provisions are made for
/ them. Those who are not really
| disabled will have to vacate.
The dispute between the princess
and the Carry-On Club grew out OF
an effort on the part of the titled
woman to oust the club members.
while the latter attempted to retain
occupancy.
The princess asserted that the
! property was her own, and that she
therefore Is entitled to its posses
sion and use, which claim was dis
Luted by the club.

more than a year ago.
Although the militia bureau Of

planned, the State itself has agreed
to finance the project, having al
ready built a flying field, which
meets with the approval of the
Army Air Service.

TRADE STATISTICS CASES
CLEARED BY COURT RULES

Trade association decisions by
the United States Supreme Court
will do away with the necessity
for further test cases on the legal

Sargent indicated today.
The Department of Justice feels
that the big question of trade
association activities which has
been bothering several administra-
tions has finally been cleared up
by decisions in the cement and
lumber cases, in which it was ruled
that that the exchange of trade
information Is legal.

COURT ROW
Justice Hitz Dismisses Rule
Against Barrett Faction;
Fight Goes On

Justice Hitz, Of the District Su-
preme Court today dismissed a
rule to show cause against Major
Charles J. Barrett, Mrs. Marguerite
G. Peckham, her husband, Frank
L. Peckham, Roberta Fawcett and
Margaret Franklin, issued against
them on the petition Of Mrs. Leon
Arnold, local president Of the
American Legion Auxiliary. Mrs.
Arnold had asked that the Barrett
faction be restrained from using
the names American Legion Aux
IL ary Club, Legion Auxiliary Serv'
ice Club and the District Of Colum-
bia Service Club or from obtaining
credit in those names.
Major Barrett and his associates
explained to the court that a great
hardship would be done to former
service men il the club which was
inaugurated by the late Mrs. Kate
Waller Barrett at 218 Third street
northwest were restrained in Its
activities.
Through Attorney John s. Bar.
bour, the court was told that a
great number Of war veterans were
being aided by the club, which was
getting along without the aid of
the national organization.
Attorneys Chamberlin & Smith,
representing Mrs. Arnold, also
asked for an accounting Of money
received by the local club from the
national organization. Counsel for
Mrs. Arnold declared that the ac-
ton of the court today merely
denies the temporary injunction
and that the case will now be pre-
sented to the court on its merits
when reached on the court
calendar.

CLEVELAND. June 3.-The Com
munity Fund has become an insn-
tuition in this, the city Of it's birth,
where system has been introduced
into philanthropy, and charity is no
longer beggar.
A single annual campaign pro-
vides approximately 43 per cent OF
the funds with which 112 social
service agencies carry on their work.
The remainder of the money neces-
sary represents the self-support Of
the various agencies.
If there is any fault to be found
with this new means OF caring for
the humanitarian needs of COM
munity, it lies only in these two
facts:
First-The Community Fund has
not entirely eliminated Independent
appeals to the public for financial
aid.
Second THE community fund Las
not always, In the six years Of its
existence here, succeeded in amass-
ing by public subscription alone, all
Of the money 1t set out to raise.
Has $125, 900 Savings.
But this later fault, if it may be
called such, has not been serious.
Careful administration of money OBJ
tained netted a savings Of $125, 900
during the first five years. This
money was made available for use
at any time.
Let 1t be known, however. that
the regard with which the public
holds the community fund Is no
better evidenced than by a recent
development. The original slogan
Suppose nobody cared" has been
relegated to history. During the
last campaign 426,526 persons con-
tributed S4.2SS,607 as indicative Of
the extent to which the public
cared" The new cry is Serving
more: needs more"

idea as exemplified by the CIeve-

Started As War Chest.
During the days or the world war,
the constantly recurring appeals to
the public for voluntary contribu-
tions for war work. the Red Cross
and the like, inspired certain civic
minded individuals to create the
War Chest-a public depository
from which funds were taken as
needed.
It was found possible, in fact it
became necessary, the present adj
ministrators Of the community fund
declare, to arrange at that time
for the financing Of purely local
philanthropic work out of the pro-
ceeds Of certain war time drives.
An organization known as the
Cleveland War Council was created
and took charge Of the work.

Early purchase by the National
Capital Park Commission of q large
tract OF land in Oxon Run valley
along the southeastern border of
the District, to connect with Ana

Potomac river park boulevard, was
advocated today by residents of the

has been favored by the Congress
Heights Citizens Association and
other civic bodies for several years.
The area, 1t is understood, is

commission following a recent sur

The area is now beginning to de.

Unless some public-spirited citi-
