STAFFORD SURE
Of PROMOTION

Friends Of Justice Wendell
Phillips Stafford appeared to be
confident today that he would be
chosen by President Hoover to
succeed Justice Walter I. Mccoy
as Chief Justice of the District
Supreme Court.
The President is expected to
announce the appointment within
the next few days. So far as is
known, the only other name
under consideration for the post
is that of Justice Alfred A..
Wheat, appointed to the bench
only few months ago.
Justice Mccoy, directly after
rendering his resignation at the
White House yesterday morning,
bade farewell to his associates
at the Supreme Court building.
with whom he has been asso-
ciated since 1918. He made no
announcement as to his plans.
His resignation from the bench
and the appointment of a sue
cesSor probably will be filled by
the President at the same time
that he announces an appoint
ment of new chief justice.

SHERIFF. SHOT DEAD, 2 WOUNDED, AT COUNTRY DANCE
Warm Jail His Goal,
But He Gets Term
On Road Gang

FAIRFAX, Va, Dec. 10-Jack
Thompson, colored, was only
partly successful in his con-
fessed attempts to get himself
arrested and comfortably housed
in the Fairfax Jail for the
winter. After several minor
misdemeanors he was arrested
and pleaded guilty to the charge
of stealing spark plugs from a
stalled car on the Richmond
Highway.
He was sentenced to four
months, just enough to last
until the warm days of next
spring, but was greatly down
cast when the sentence was
qualified by directions to send
him to the State road camp in
stead of to the more restful
county jail.

FUTURE WATER
NEEDS CITED

FALLS CHURCH, Va, Dec. 10.
At a meeting of the executive
committee of the Northwest Civic
Association at the home of Joseph
Loveday it was decided to request
the Falls Church Town Council
to treat the water supply problem
of the community as a unit and
to insure that any water mains
installed at the present time be
laid so that they may be used as
a part of a system to supply the
whole community at any future
date.
1t was specifically urged that
no mains small than eight inches
in diameter be laid on Washing
ton Street. The argument was
made that it was probable that at
no distant date it would be de-
sirable to extend the water sys-
tenn through Falls Church to
points DIN Fairfax county beyond
the corporation limits now rapidly
building up.

Sheriff C. A. Gum, of Bath
County, was shot and killed here

tempted to stop a fist fight at
Warm Springs, near here.
George w. MeSser, jr., 18, is in

degree murder. He was shot
down and seriously wounded by a
deputy after he is alleged to have
killed the sheriff.

According to witnesses, young
Messer and Newton Ross, 25, were
engaged in a fist fight at the
dance. A number of citizens at
tempted to stop the fight, but
were prevented by the father of
Messer. The sheriff was sum-
moned and undertook to arrest

In the scuffle, Sheriff Gum is

DRIVER
FELON IN
VA. BILL

RICHMOND, Va, Dec. TO- "A
bill providing that the offense
Of driving while drunk be made
felony will be introduced in
the General Assembly, which con-
venes here Jan. Is, with the in
dorsement of the Anti-Saloon
League Of Virginia, according to
the Rev. David Hepburn, superin-
tendent Of the league.
There were 40 arrests for
this offenSe last year-and the
number is incre Easing until
drunken drivers have become a
menace" Hepburn said. THE
offense is an acute danger to life
and property and deserves greater
punishment than is now pro-
vided."
No Dry Law Fight
There is now no indication
that the prohibition laws gen
orally will provide a major issue
for the 1880 assembly.
The governor-elect. DR.. John
Garland Pollard, is a member of
the bone-dry faction Of the Demo
cratic party, and a considerable
majority of the legislature is
pledged to oppose any attempt to
weaken the present dry laws.
The present prohibition act pro-
videS that driving while under
the influence of intoxicants is
punishable by sentence of one
to IL months in Jail and a fine
of from 500 to 81 900, or both.
The penalty has been increased
on a number of occasions as the
increase in the number of auto
mobiles has increased the num-
Der of arrests for drunken driV-
ing.
The offenSe also has been the
subject of much newspaper COM
ment in recent years and in the
determination of many judges to
impose heavy punishment.
Acuittals Frequent
On the other hand, the present
punishment is severe enough to
put-many very young persons be-
hind the bars. and in many cases
jury trials have resulted in &C
quittals or suspended sentences
because of the youth of the de-
PENDANTS.
