AIRPORT PLANS
HERE GET D. K.

Boiling Field will receive the ap-
prevail of the Postoffice Department
and the aeronautic section Of the
Department of Commerce as the
Districts temporary air mail port,
removing the last possible obstacle
to it's use, it was indicated today.
Harold F. Pitcairn, successful
bidder for the New York-Atlanta air
mail service. already has signified
his approval of the field as a night
air mail port, provided the neces.
sary flood lights and hangar are
provided. it was learned today.
Hangar Costly Item
will be a hangar. This will have to
necessarily be a very large struc-
ture.
A small machine shop, storeroom
and office must be provided, but
these can be constructed very
cheaply.

business interests in Washington,

MOVE To MERGE
D. c. FRACTIONS

A survey of the three local
transportation companies, with a
view to effecting a merger, is be-
ing conducted by Charles Hansel,
consulting engineer of New York
and Washington. under the direc-
ton of the public utilities com
mittee of the Federation of Citizens
Associations, it was learned today.
The cost Of the undertaking is
said TO be about $4,000, which
Major Clayton E. Emig, acting
agreed to furnish. Major Emig
would give no intimation today of
the source of the money.
1t was learned, however, that
Admiral Joseph Strauss, delegate of
the Dupont Circle Citizens Associa-
ton to the Federation and member
of the committee, had originally
offered to raise the money and later
changed his mind
Strauss reversed his position COM
pletely, it is said, and even resigned
from the committee and his position
as a delegate to the federation as
a result of the affair. Col. E. p.
CINulCIOlA udS ICpidCcu lilIAI III oOIA
positions.
Major Emig declares that the sur
vey of the three companies, the
Washington Railway and Electric,
the Capital Traction and the Wash
ington Rapid Transit Company, is
to be the most exhaustive ever
made, even more complete than the
McClelland & Junkersfeld report Of
two years ago. He is certain it
will go a long way towards effect
ing merger.
The report which will be made as
a result of the survey will not only
outline the local transportation
problem and reveal the financial
condition of the three companies,
but will recommend a basis on
which a merger can be effected.

BODY MAY
AID BARROWS

Unconfirmed rumors that the
strength OF the Citizens Service AS
ISOLATION may be injected into the
trial of the Rev. Alfred f. Barrows
followed the announcement today
that Harry n. Douthitt, field secre-
tary of the association, had appeared
as a witness in the case.
The Rev. Mr.. Barrows is being
tried in the New York Avenue Pres.
byterian Church by the judicial COM
mittee of the Washington Presbytery
on charges brought by members of
the Eastern Presbyterian Church, of
which the accused is pastor.
Mr.. Douthitt said he received a
summons to appear before the com
presented himself the committee
The nature of the testimony Dout-
hitt was expected to give could not
be learned.
Considerable mystery attended his
entry into the case. He was brought
in by rear door and while waiting
to appear before the committee was
kept in a small room in the rear of
the church. Officials of the associa.

ton would take any part in the
trial.
DIR. f. NJ. Ellison, secretary, and
the Rev. Homer J. Councillor. one
of the directors, refused to confirm
or deny a report that the Rev. Mr..
Barrows was a member of the
service association. The Rev. Free.
ley Rohrer, counsel for the Rev. Mr..
Barrows, is a member of the board
of directors of the service associ.
alton.
1t is understood the prosecution
has nearly completed the presenta-
ton of their side of the case. The
committee will not sit again until
Friday, when, it is expected, several
defense witnesses will be called.
The Rev. Mr.. Barrows is now In
Brooklyn to attend the funeral of
his sister-in-law. It is not known
whether he will be back in time for
the resumption of the hearings Fri.
day. but it is understood the com.
mittee will go ahead without. him
If he is prevented from being
present.

While Mrs. Carrie Howard, of

treated at Georgetown Hospital yes
terday her three little children dis
appeared from her automobile
standing in front OF the hospital.
Later they were found in Cherry
dale, Va, and returned to Wash

The frantic mother called the
police who later notified her that
they were holding May, five, Frank
three, and Dorothy, five. all well

Mrs. Howard explained today that

absentmindedly left them by the
roadside in Cherrydale. Further
than that he could not account
for their disappearance, she said.

That long ago placed with care
Within my treasure box.
Z know they are not much to see,
Gone IL their gaudy hue.
But they are still a. dear to me
AZ when they were new.
For as upon their forms gaze,
Over times misty track
That runs through many yesterdays
Fond mem'ry takes me back.
It'll the time clearly recall
They came fresh from the store;
They were . size at least too small,
But proudly them / wore.
A birthday gift to me they were
In days Of ''auId lang syne,"
with them this greeting came from her:
Ito Carl from Caroline"
So for the dreams Of long ago
That sight of them unlOcks;
Dreams that I ne'er again viii know,
keep these faded socks.
