GROWS
FOR HOOVER TURN
69.3 Per Cent of 4,084 Voting
Favor Change in District
Traffic Rules.

Sentiment for adopting the Hoover
standard left turn in lieu of the rotary
turn now used here as well as for
to grow. and with 4084 expressions
registered with the District of Columbia
Division CT the American Automobile
Association. 693 per cent are for
changing the present regulation, it was
declared today by Charles P. Clark
general manager of the A. A. A.. who
announced several days ago that the
survey would be continued until all
motorists desiring to vote in the poll
are given an ample opportunity.
Mr.. Clark said that the reasons the
A. A. A. poll gives the true sentiment
of car owners in the Capital are four
fold:
l. 1t is confined to bona fide motor
lists who are affected by the rules only
from a driving standpoint and are in
no way influenced by the opinion of
others.
Duplications Avoided.
e. It is conducted in a manner to
avoid Implications and the missionaries
signed by motorists are at the disposal
of traffic authorities.
8. It represents voluntary expressions
on the mrt of the driving public and
no effort has been made to influence
these opinions by argument on the
merits or dement's of the rotary trun.
4. It has not been thrown open to
the general public in an effort to secure
a large number of expressions from
those unfamiliar with driving and who
would not be affected by change in
regulations.
The A. A. A. executive pointed out
that while sentiment is clearly for abol-
ishing the rotary turn, the significant
feature of the survey is the fact that
96.4 per cent of 4,0l0 motorists in the
Capital favor uniform traffic rules.
Favor Single Rule.
This is further substantiated." he
continued, "by the expression with re-
gard to different rules at controlled or
uncontrolled crossings. In this connec-
ton, 928 per cent of 1852 car OWNERS
expressed themselves as being in favor
of one rule at all crossings. This can
only be brought about through uni
formity.
ut is indeed tragic condition when
81 per cent of 5000 car owners in the
Nations Capital say they did not know
that two methods of making left turns
one for controlled crossings and one
for uncontrolled croSsings-are in eff
feet"
Mr.. Clark declared that the sentiment
for changing the rotary left turn and
making traffic rules uniform is even
stronger among visitors than among
residents. He said that with expressions
from motorists representing So States
and Canada, 1t is found that 1873 per
cent of 3O4 car owners favor the Hoover
standard left turn. while 98.7 per cent
of 312 advocate uniformity. Moreover,
53.1 per cent of 288 car owners did not
know of the two methods for left
turn in the Capital and 93.7 per cent
of 302 favor one rule at all crossings.

TONG WAR SUSPECT
MAY Be D. c. SLAYER
Capital Police Ask Boston
Officials to Determine if Man
Is One Wanted Here.

Washington police, seeking the ar.
rest of Lee Cuen Sing in the murder
of a Chinese narcotic informer here
June IL, have telegraphed Boston au-
thorities to learn If the Lee Sing they
are holding there in connection with q
tong Staying can be identified as the
local fugitive.
Police here have information that
Lee Sing went East after the fatal
shooting of Lee King, Chinese laundry
man. who was dumped from an automo-
bile In front of 1918 Eleventh street
after rumors were current in China
town that he was tipping off Federal
narcotic men.
Inspector William S. Shelby wired the
query last night. He pointed out that
Boston police already have complete
description of the Chinese wanted here
and asked that they make the identifl-
cation If possible.
Rumors Here Link Him.
Rumors current in Chinatown today
we're TO the effect that the Lee Sing in
Boston Is the local man, and that he
has been suspected in several Sayings
prior to the one he is involved In at
Boston.
Local detectives were told three weeks
ago that the man they sought was in
Boston. but a subsequent search di-
vulged no trace of the fugitive.
A price of $4,000 had been set on
Lee Kings head, Chinese leaders here
say.
Lee Din, one of four men wanted in
the killing, is at the District Jail, where
he has been confined since shortly after
the murder.
Some unrest was manifest in China
town today, despite reaSsuring reports
that truce had been signed between
the rival tongs of the Hip Sings and the
On Leongs.
d. C. Leader is Skeptical.
One leader of local tong was IN
clined to view the peace agreement with
skepticism, but added that settlement
between leaders at the focal point of the
trouble would 60 a long way toward
quoting the unrest In other parts of the
country.
Chinatown, for the most part, went
about its business this morning with the
usual composure, although numbers of
closed doors and certain dearth of Chi
nese on the streets gave evidence that
the anxiety has not been allayed en-
tirely.
Meanwhile, police Of No 6 precinct
continued to patrol the section with
added details.
Officials of rival organizations here
the Hip Sings and On Leongs, have been
subpoenaed into conference this after
noon with United States Attorney Leo
S. Rover, as a precautionary measure
against possible outbreak. The leaders
already have been interviewed by police
officers.

A Navy Hawk land plane with a
powerful Curtiss water-cooled motor,
the fastest plane at the local station,
was being equipped with pontoons this
morning to fly to Annapolis this after
noon. where it will be used as a flying
companion for the winged meteor in
the first stages of the flight tests.
The Hawk, however, local Navy peo-
pie stated, has a cruising speed only
little better than the reported 120-mile-
per-hour landing speed of the racer.
With such an enormous landing speed,
more than twice as fast as the ordinary
commercial plane, and faster than the
top flying speed of most commercial
ships, take-ofTs and landings will be-
come an exceedingly hazardous problem,
It was pointed out. The slightest mis-
calculation might result seriously and
contact with bit of floating driftwood
probably would tear out the entire
pontoon.

PAY RAISE IS CHIEF
CONVENTION THEME
President of Employees Fed
Grafton Says Plan Will Be
Discussed at Session.

Modification upward of the pay levels
Of the personnel classification act,
which will be proposed to Congress by
the Personnel Classification Board,
promises to be the most important
single subject before the annual conven-
ton of the National Federation Of Fed
eral Employees at Sault st. Marie, Mich,
beginning September 2.
Luther G. Steward. president of the
federation, said today he knew generally
about the proposition which the board
has in mind, but was not ready to
discuss it in any of its details.
System Business-Like.
Generally speaking however. he said
that the whole thing is lined up with
making the Federal personnel question
a busineSs-like system, Wnere the people
Of the United States get value re-
ceived, and Federal employees get a
square deal.
This is a very beginning" he de-
clared, lin regard to fundamentals. We
are thoroughly interested and intend
to follow every detail. The federation
has been fighting for years for fair
systematic compensation for Federal
employees, and we feel that this field
survey is an outgrowth of the classifi-
cation act, and the WEIGH act, for both
of which the federation is responsible. u
The classification board has deter
mined. in making a report to Congress
on comparative salaries received in the
field service of the Government and in
comparable jobs in private employment,
to also recommend to Congress increas-
ed salary rates in the classification act.
IL is to be further proposed by the
board that certain kinds of work which
does not now fall under jurisdiction of
the board be brought under its juris-
diction, to make more uniform Govern
ment pay for similar work.
Biggest Egg in Basket"
Steward. as president of the fedora
ton of Government workers, said he
considered that the boards contem-
plated new move, disclosed for the first
time yesterday, will be quite 1.-The big
gest egg in the basket" at the national
federation's meeting in Michigan.
The report of the boards intention
has stirred enthusiastic response among
the rank and file of Government work
ers. who are eagerly awaiting the de-
tails of the boards report.
