TRUCK DRIVER HELD
IN DEATH OF GIRL
Coroner's Inquest in Accident
to Ellen Kline Is Marked
by Chickering'S.

At an inquest punctuated by bicker-
ings among witnesses, counsel and
Coroner hewitt, the coroner's jury today
recommended that Albert e. Norton,
driver of truck that knocked down
and killed 7-year-old Ellen Kline on
Fourth street between Massachusetts,
avenue and c street July 4, be held
for action by the grand jury.
The coroner'S jury decided that the
girl died as result of the accident.
but the testimony disclosed an unusual
performed the autopsy, testified that
death was due to shock and that the
girl was suffering from a status
lymphaticus" at the time of the acct
dent.
Subject to Shock.
This condition, the physician said, is
caused by enlargement of the thymus
and other glands and makes the patient
susceptible to death from shock that
would be h M less to nromal persons
When no shoe, is encountered, he said,
the patient frequently lives to maturity.
DR., Joseph d. Rogers and DR.. c. M.
Hall, who swede up the girls ear at
Casualty Hospital and examined her
there. testified that their examination
showed no evidence of fractures, and
LIT. LSOIl -. NIUIQOIl anu LII. L. ftuIkOSkl
of Emergency, where she died, said their
examination showed no positive evil
dence of fractures either. although the
case was diagnosed as possible fracture
of the skull and arm
DrS. Rogers and Hall said they never
discharged the girl from the hospital.
Doctors Dispute.
During DR.. Gordons testimony he
and Dr. Hall got into dispute over a
telephone conversation and later when
the coroner asked Leonard Block, at
torney for the girls father. if he was
through with the witness, MIR. Block
said; The doctors are not on trial"
This started an argument between
the coroner and the attorney, which was
finally settled peacefully.
Joseph j. Schenoe, an witness,
testified that Norton tried to avoid the
accident by running his truck up on
the curb, but that he did not apply his
brakes. Norton did not testify.

speaking, Fin the air.neas legislation
authorizing their establishment has not
vet been enacted by Congress In the
case of the new buildings for the Police
Court and the recorder of deeds. Con-
gress has provided the necessary iegisla-
ton, but the Commissioners feel that
while these facilities are urgently needed,
they should be held in allegiance pend
ing the outcome Of the movement to-
ward the development Of a municipal
center in the triangular area between
Third and Seventh streets and Penn
syiTania and Indiana avenues. Incl
dsntally, the Citizens Advisory Council
shares this view with the Commits
Eioners.
To Hear Trade Board.
As socn as the Commissioners con-
slider the budget recommendation of
the Washington Beard of Trade and
the Advisory Council the estimates viii
be whipped into shape for submission to
the Budget Bureau. The deadline fixed
by Budget Director Lord for receipt of
the preliminary budget is July Is, but
the Commissioners likely will have the
document in his hands several days in
advance.
The Board Of Trade recommendations
were received at the District Building
today, but the Advisory Council is not
expected TO make its report until ton1or-
row. The council, however, has recon-
nlended budget slightly in excess OF
$50 900 600 The Board of Trade, on
the other hand, urged a budget OF
81 .233 900. predicated on an increase
N the lun7p-sum contribution of the
Federal Government from 5000 900 20
SO. 7S3. 900. which, II pointed out, would
provide for continuance Of the existing
SITG tax levy.
The Commissioners have not had
sufficient time TO make a study of the
report Of the Board Of Trade and have
net indicated their attitude toward it.

SEES CHANGED METHODS
IN PRESIDENT MAKING
Ray Tucker. Addressing Kiwanis
Club, Bases Opinion on Results of
Recent National Conventions.

Old methods of President-making
vanished during the two political con-
ventions Just past and IF the Repub-
licans' action was startling, the Demo-
Gratis was even more revolutionary"
Ray Tucker, Washington correspondent
for the New York Telegram, declared
in an address at luncheon of tn.
Kiwanis Club in the Hotel Washington
yesterday.
All of the old methods of political
functioning was done away with and no
special group, such as the farmers at
the Republican convention or the drys
at the Democratic convention. had the
slightest chance of bringing about the
defeat of the peoples choice. the speak
er continued.
MIR. Tucker spoke in highest praise
of the general efficiency and worthiness
of both candidates, declaring:
IF we can always go 70 sleep on
election night as confident that Who
ever is elected the nation will be in
safe hands. as we will be able to do on
November 6, 1923. we will be entitled
to consider ourselves one of Gods chos-
