EARLIER SHOPPING
BECOMES REALITY
Survey of Business Here Shows De-
mand for Christmas Goods
Is Already Emphatic.

Christmas shopping started in Wash
ington in real earnest yesterday, ac-
cording to survey of business in down.
town stores and shops made by Edward
D. Shaw, secretary of the Merchants
and Manufacturers Association. His
check of the situation indicated that
the mail early-shop early movement,
sponsored by the merchants organiza-
ton, is we'll under way here.
This corresponds with reports re-
ceived from the larger cities of the
country" he said, land indicates that
the movement, launched by club women
several years ago to place holiday gift
buying on common-sense basis and to
eliminate much of the eleventh-hour
hysteria, has gained firm foothold
THE great trouble with the shop
early campaigns in some previous years
was the fact that the stores were not
prepared to meet the public's early
season demand" Mr.. Shaw explained.
"The stores got in habit of waiting
until the big Christmas rush started.
This year Washington merchants made
this merchandise available several DAYS
in advance of former years. The re-
suit has been very gratifying to all
concerned
washington merchants, who this
year are watching with satisfaction the
demand on the part of the people for
arN early opportunity to make their
Christmas selections, plan to make the
early Christmas opening a regular event
in future years"

CHILD FOUND AFTER VANISHING
FROM AUTO PARKED ON STREET
Machine Located Later in
Mud Without Trace of
Lone Little Occupant.
Girl Unable to Tell Police
About Movements and
Toy Balloon.

An hours search for little 2-year-old
Gay Davis, 30I2 @ street, came to an
abrupt but puzzling end last night when
she was found wandering on Tenth
street with the keys to her fathers
automobile, which had been missing
with her in it, his registration card and
operators permit and a toy balloon
clutched in her chubby hands.
Despite the fact that the baby had
sufficient intelligence to carry the keys
and identification cards with her, she
was unable to tell her father or the
first precinct police just what had
happened prior to her discovery.
The baby's father. Merton o. Davis,
an iron worker, had taken her down.
town with him while he made short
call at the Georgetown University
Dental College, H street between Ninth
and Tenth streets, and as he had done
many times before, left her sitting in
the machine which was parked in the
same block
Finishing his errand, Davis went to
the place where he had left his car, but
could not find it. Thinking that he
may have been mistaken in the loca-
ton, he walked the entire length of
the block, but was still unsuccessful in
his search.
After a hurried search of the several
surrounding blocks, Davis met two
friends, who helped him for a while,
and they then suggested that he place
the matter before a policeman. He
carried out the suggestion and the car
was finally located on Tenth street,
which is torn up and closed to traffic.
The automobile was stuck in the mud
behind barricade, but the baby was
not in it,
With this discovery, Davis said. the
policeman turned to him and asked in
Evening star., 1928-12-02

a skeptical manner whether he had
been drinking. adding that he did not
believe such thing could have hap
pened and indicating that he did not
believe Davis had child with him.
There then being nothing else left to
do and the child having been missing
for an hour, Davis, his companions and
the policeman all went to the first pre-
cinct station house. There they found
Gay demonstrating to the admiring
policemen that her name really meant
something
The child had been found walking
on Tenth street by Policeman S. F..
Smith. The registration card permit,
keys and balloon were tightly held and
she refused to give them up even after
reaching the station house. The police
had learned her fathers name and ad-
dress from the cards she carried and
were then attempting to notify her
parents that she was there.
Efforts to obtain information from
the child as to what had happened and
where she got the balloon were aban-
doned when it was found that her con-
versation had not yet reached the stage
where she could converse in any other
language than such words as dag and
cat

DISTRICT DIVIDED
FOR CHEST DRIVE
"Human Welfare Weather
Map" Creates 35 Zones
for Future Work.

What is described as a human well
fare weather map of the National
Capital, through which the District and
suburbs are divided into 35 geographical
sections, was created yesterday by the
Washington Community Chest to aid
in the campaign for funds, scheduled
to begin in January.
Chest officers and leaders of civic and
welfare organizations expressed the
hope that the map may become the
basis for permanent study and COM
parison of social and welfare conditions
throughout the city, with relation to
poverty, disease crime, delinquency and
other matters.
Map Follows Conference.
The map was laid out following a
conference between Elwood Street,
director of the Washington Community
Chest. and the following civic and well
fare organization leaders:
DR.. George c. Havenner, president of
the Federation of Citizens Associa-
tions; James c. Yaden, past president
of the federation; David Babp. secre-
tary of the federation; Maj. Carey
Brown of the National Capital Park
and Planning Commission, Miss Sybil
Baker, director of the Washington
Community Center Department; Miss
Gertrude Bowling, director of the In
structive Visiting Nurses Society, and
Mrs. w. A. Roberts, executive secretary
of the Washington Council of Social
Agencies.
With comparative studies of the con-
ditions in the particular sections as
designated on the map, it will be pos
sible to concentrate welfare work where
most needed, it is pointed out. The
divisional boundries also will serve
for the special work of the various
agencies operated within the chest
itself, it Is stated.
The chest will use these subdivisions
as designated in its house-to-house and
office -office campaign for funds, in
which 1t plans to solicit every one able
to give.
For the soliciting campaign the chest
organization plans to use a small
army" of volunteer solicitors, working
under volunteer captains and division
chairmen with a central volunteer
chairman head of them all.
Corps May Number 5000.
Plans are to enlist more than 1000
volunteer workers for the metropolitan
district alone. Another 1000 will be
needed, it is pointed out, to serve the
chest and its group of welfare agencies
in connection with soliciting in other
divisions and other work. including
soliciting for special gifts, publicity and
auditing.
Special provision also is to be made
for furnishing general information re-
garding the chest and the campaign as
well as provision for the colored group.
The total of volunteer helpers may
reach 5000, a statement from chest
officials said
Such system as proposed, already
has been worked out successfully in St
Louis, where Mr.. Street was engaged
for seven and half years in directing
the work of community federation OF
social agencies.
In the main, the geographical sections
as designated for Washington are ap-
proximately the boundary lines of citi-
zens' associations here.

LIQUOR COURT HELD
NEED OF DISTRICT
Assistant U. S. Attorney Sug-
gestS Plan to Speed Up
Dry Law Cases.

Because Of the large number Of per-
sons charged with dry law violations
and the delay in bringing them to trial,
the suggestion that separate court be
designated to handle them exclusively
in much the same manner a: traffic
cases are handled through a special
court, has been made by an assistant
United States attorney, it was learned
yesterday.
Specifically, the suggestion is that
Judge Robert E. Mattingly. who recently
returned to his regular assignment in
Municipal Court following appointment
of Ralph Given to a Police Court judg-
ship, be recalled to Police Court, and
that an additional jury be impaneled
to work under him.
At present it is approximately three
weeks between the time a man IS ar
raigned for liquor offense and the
date he is brought before a jury. Not
more than 5 per cent of offenders
brought in for transportation, posses
sion or similar liquor law violations
stand trial by the court and get i'm
mediate disposition of their cases. OF
the rest, about so per cent change tl.sir
pleas from not guilty to guilty afl =
demanding a jury trial.
Only two days a week are now SCI
aside for liquor cases before the Police
Court jury, serious traffic cases and
United States offenseS occupying the
other days.
If a judge and jury were established
to handle liquor cases alone, the pres
ent crowded docket could be cleared up
within two months, it is said in the
assistant United States attorneys Office.
Although the suggestion concerning
Judge Mattingly was made some time
ago, 1t has not as yet been either ap-
proved or rejected.

VIENNA, December 1.-The Neus

turbanceS between Crotian students and
Serbians has occurred there.
Croatian demonstrators were said to

A shot was fired during the demon
stration. the dispatch says, whereupon
the police fired into the crowd and two
men dropped. They were taken away by
the police. The whole city was said to
be in a state of intense excitement.

sure which is the unfinished business.
Then there are other major legislative
and executive proposals awaiting early
consideration, including the naval con-
struction bill farm relief and the Kel-
logg anti-war treaty.
With the spirit of cooperation mani
tested on both sides during the first
session 1 am confident that March 4
will mark the close of a Congress which
has broken all records in its attention
to the nations business.
Evening star., 1928-12-02

Farm relief can and should be passed
at the short session. The long-pending
Muscle Shoals question also should be
settled and demands for a reapportion-
ment of the House membership met.
The farm bill could be put through
quickly by eliminating the features of
the McNary- -Haugen measure to which
strong objection has been made and
leaving for a possible extra session re-
lief provisions relating to the tariff.
I foresee little delay in passing the
nine annual appropriation bills. The
appropriations committee has been
working almost month and there is a
probability that we may dispose of two
or three of these measures before the
Christmas holidays.
