Beautiful Fisher Bodies
With their low, graceful, sweeping
lines and smart silhouette, their
ample room for passengers and their
sparkling color combinations and
rich upholsteries-the new Fisher

Outstanding Economy

Outstanding Economy
The new Chevrolet Six is an unusually
economical car to operate. Not
only does it deliver better than
twenty miles to the gallon of gasoline
but its oil economy is equal to, If not
actually greater than, that of its
famous four-cylinder predecessor.

BABY s PARENTS
SOUGHT

Kicking her tiny feet back and
forth without care in the world,
baby girl less than 4S hours old
made friend9 with all the nurses at
Children's Hospital today as police
attempted to learn who placed her
a cardboard hat box and abandoned
her.
The girl was barely ~ hours old
when found In a vacant lot at
Chappell Road and Nevada Avenue
Northwest yesterday by Clyde Stew.
ems, 13.year-old Boy Scout, of the
1900 block Huntington Ave. N. W.
Heard a Squeal
Though suffering from exposure
when taken to the hospital, physi-
slams said the baby recovered at
once and was practically certain to
live.
"I cut through the lot on my
way to Rock Creek Park" the
Stevens boy explained today. LAS
was walking along / heard faint
squeal.
'"The noise sounded like a cat or
dog in trouble. I investigated it.
The first thing / saw was a box
laying in the weeds. The little girl
cried loudly when lifted off the
top Of the hat box. She didn't
have on any clothes at ALL"
The boy ran to a house nearby
and told of his discovery. An
Emergency Hospital ambulance was
called and removed the infant to
children's Hospital.
No Clue Left
Police also were notified. How
ever, since the box contained no note
or other clue to the identity of the
/, child, the task, of learning the par
ents of the baby was found to be diff
ficult.
The girl weighed three pounds
Physicians at the hospital started al

The Stevens boy puzzled over this

4 ARRESTED IN
STORE RAID

A cigar store in the 1900 block
Fourteenth st. N. w. turned out to
be a veritable bastile when it was
stormed by Capt. o. G. Davis and a
squad of his men who had a warrant
charging sale of liquor, according to
a report filed today in Police Court.
After the raid the captain and his
men thumbed the pages OF their
trusty District code and placed ~
charges against four men.
The charges were based on a pint
which Captain Davis located on the
second floor at the address. A COM
plicated system to frustrate those
representing the law worked ike
clockwork and nothing was found on
the first floor.
The raiders said Isaac Deyeu, be-
hind the cigar counter, pressed but
ton when they entered. A buzzer
sounded in a rear room.
They entered this room and an.
other man simultaneously entered a
booth and pressed another button,
police claim. A second buzzer
sounded in third room.
In this room, police say, there was
a third man, sink and a suspicious
odor, but nothing more.
Police charged Deyeu with posses.
sion, maintaining a nuisance and
conspiracy. Sol MunitZ and Joseph
Caruso were charged with posses
sion and conspiracy, and Munitz also
with a sale and the maintenance of
a nuisance, and Samuel Goldstein,
who is said to own the premises, is
charged with possession, conspiracy
and maintaining a nuisance.

The court will reconvene on Octo.

by the court today were four de-

FALLS POWER
PROJECT UP
AGAIN

The question of the disposition OF
the Great Falls hydro-electric
project is again facing civic, trade
and citizens associations.
Recently the special subcommit.
tee of the washington Chamber of
Commerce met with a view Of de.
liverinR a final report on their
study of the situation. At that
meeting It was decided additional
study should be made and the re.
port be held UP.
The proposal of making the Great
Falls on the Potomac into hydro
electric project as originally sug-
gested. provides for the formation
of a huge lake where the falls are
now. A power house would be
erected and it Is claimed by some
that this would furnish enough
power to light and heat the city at
much lower rates than the consumer
is now forced to pay.
others maintain that this project
is unfeasible, claiming that the cost
of erecting a suitable dam would
offset savings.
Others are opposed to the plan
because they fear the lake formed
by the dam would destroy the
natural beauty of the Potomac
gorge.

SUSTA|NS
VA, LICENSE

The Traffic Act of 1925 removes
all the double meanings in the act
of 1917, Justice Robb, Of the Dis
trict Court of Appeals, said today
in reversing the decision Of Judge
John P. McMahon,/ of the Traffic
Court, who convicted a man for
driving in the District, with a
Virginia license, after his District
license had been revoked.
Justice Robb pointed out that a
similar case was heard before the
Court of Appeals in 1921.
Charles H. Fred. the convicted
driver, had his District license re-
voked in December. 1926. He later
became a legal resident of Virginia
and purchased an automobile there,
which he licensed in April, 1928,
In the Old Dominion no license
other than the certificate of registra-
ton is required.
Last September. Fred's appeal
said, he was temporarily in the
District and he was arrested for
operating an automobile during the
period of the suspension of his
drivers license. He was subsequent
ly convicted in the Traffic Court
by Judge Mcmahon.

FERRIS WHEEL" GARAGE
Invention, Conceived During Fever of Illness, May solve Problem
 of Parking Space

Corpus Christi, Tex, April r. LP A former seaman has devised a Ferris wheel garage as a possible solution to the metropolitan land ,uhbers parking problem.
 Hans SoreuSOn's Contrivance. patterned after the amusement de- vice with compartments for cars in lieu of seats. would accommo- date G0 automobiles in 10 per cent of the ground space ordinarily used for parking,
 The idea struck Sorenson during an illness in which his feverish brain projected itself into traffic tangles of New York. Garages built like Ferris wheels, he inn aglned, would end the motorists search for parking space. Upon E!s recovery he made blueprints and now seeks patent rights.
 The iron structure would be op- era,ed by motor and housed in a trench in a hotel. garage and out door area. SOrenson plans con crete dummies" for compartments not occupied, 10 maintain balance in the wheel.

Eew ideas. Already at Sandhurst more attention is being given to turning out officers ot advanced ed uCation.
 The post war army too seems to be attracting to the ranks a larger proportion of young men of fair ed ucation. The advantages of elemen- tary and secondary schooling offered to Tommy Atkins and the develop ment of mechanical science in War fare make for that
 One evidence of this is the fact that the number Of non-commis- stoned officers who pass the highest examinations that heretofore have been open to them is increasing greatly. The general staff feels that 1t is imperative that corresponding advance should be made in the edu- cation of officers.

 The plan calls for promotion from the ranks by merit with the hope of replacing inefficient subalterns who hitherto have been selected because of social position, wealth, proficiency in sports, horsemanship and similar parade" qualifications. In the old days commissions were purchased but that was finally abolished. A. ways, however, one of the chief at fractions of a British army commis- sion was the social status that went with it.
 Under the new plan infantry units smaller than .. company will be led by efficient non-coms developed from the rank and file. From the best Of these men candidates will be &e- lected for higher education at Sand hurst, the West Point of Great Brit ain.
 These changes are a direct result of the world war which taught the British general staff the need for higher efficiency among the subal- terms, many of whom were imper- fecrly trained and who relied on the superior technical knowledge of their top sergeants to pull them through. The new system will be introduced gradually.
