torted. ''I'm him myself"

specimens and has lost one by
death, it was announced today by

day were placed on exhibition:
A Hyacinthine macaw, the largest

A young black handed gibbon has

lection. It is the first time in zoo

D. c. HEADS FACE
HEAVY JOB

Many important problems faced
the Board of District Commissioners
when it met with full membership
today for the first time in several
weeks, following the return to
Washington of Commissioner Proc
tor L. Dougherty, who has been on
months vacation.
The most urgent is the Farmers
Market situation. The Treasury
Department has requested the re-
noval of at least half of the mar
ket by November Is, in order to be
gin construction of the New In
ternal Revenue Building. The com.
missioners must reach decision on
their policy in the market case
within a few days.
A series of police promotions an.
ticipated as result of the death
of Assistant Superintendent Charles
A. Evans aroused much speculation
among police.
The promotion of Inspector A. J.
Headley last winter, made an extra
inspector and although there is
money available it is quite possible
that Evans place win be filled by
the promotion of present in.
spector as assistant superintendent,
The money is appropriated in such
a way that it can be used for
other purposes.

CARS
MUST GO

All one.man cars in the District
of Columbia without rear exit
are doomed under the terms Of the
Public Utilities Commissions order
for better service on the Anacostia
line, which was signed today.
u The Commission ordered the
Washington Railway and Electric
Company to replace the cars now
in service on the Anacostia line
either with the new type one-man
cars or with two-man cars, or to
equip the cars with automatic rear
exits.
In reviewing the history of one
man cars here the Commission 8
order concluded with the following
statement:
.'The commission is of the opin.
ion that as a general principle,
one-man cars not equipped with
automatic treadle rear exits and
double front doors to permit of
simultaneous entrance and exit
do not and cannot give satisfactory
service for the City of Washing
ton"
There are 20 one-man cars in
opera ton here. Sixteen of them
are of the modern type. Under the
terms of principle the Commission
in order to be consistent will have
to order the retirement or remodel.
ing of not only the u cars in oper-
alton on the Anacostia line, but
all the other So vehicles.

for three years prior to his gradua-
ton in 1926. Since that time he
has been associated with his father
in the bonding business.
For two generations the children
of either house have grown up to-
gether, and the engagement is the
elimination of a romance that had
its inception early in the acquaint-
ance OF both.
Announcement of the fact was
made public with the resignation of
Miss Zuberano as secretary to. the
assistant superintendent Of schools
and the tribute paid her at last
Wednesdays meeting of the Board
of Education. She had been in that
position since her graduation from

tire supply of buttermilk. The in,
truder then departed lin the driv.
er's seat of Mr.. Athey's new sedan
which he kept in a stable.
When Mr.. Athey awoke next

the unjust manner in which he
was being treated.
But, despite the vigilance Of po
lice, the thief came back on Mon,
