rum CAR ROLLS
DOWN INCLINE

Plunging down q 10-foot embank-
ment early today as their liquor
laden automobile careened out the
Livingston Road in southeast Wash
ington. two unidentified rum rum
nera narrowly escaped death. Police
seized their car and 12O quarts Of
liquor.
The accident climaxed q spirited
five-mile chase which began at
Nichols Ave. and w st. s. f. The
bootleggers were attempting to get
out of the District when their heavy
machine shot from the road.
Springs Tell Tale
C. o. Rouse, an Eleventh precinct
motorcycle policeman. started chas-
ing the rum machine when he no.
ticed its springs were weighed down
as though the automobile bore a big
cargo.
Several near-collisions with other
cars marked the early stages Of the
race. The whisky car sped out
Nichols Avenue to Livingston Road.
With the District line only short
distance away, the driver lost con-
troll of the machine.
The brakes screeched as the lam
car rolled from the road. Once at
the foot of the embankment, the
occupants, apparently unhurt,
jumped from their battered machine
and ran. They disappeared so
quickly Rouse was even unable to
tell whether they were white or
colored.
Mud Saves Them
Police said the rum-runners prob
ably would have been killed had
not the ditch into which they
plunged been muddy.
Though 12O quarts of liquor re-
manned intact, police found large
quantity of the cargo of corn"
had been lost as numerous bottles
were smashed in the crash.

River Valley
Pear Farms Prosper

MEDFORD, Ore. July 10 Q.N,S).
Pear growers in the famous Rogue
River Valley are receiving the high
est prices paid for Bartlett pears in
the past IL years. 1t is estimated
that 10000 tons of the entire crop,
rated at $4,000 tons. have been pur-
chased by canneries at prices rang
ing from SIS to $S5 per ton.
Excessive early buying this year is
attributed by packers to the shortage
in pear crops in other sections and
an increasing demand for canned
pears.
Eastern market, it was predicted,
would suffer q shortage of the fresh
fruit. There will be no Bartlatts
shipped from the Hood River, Wen
atchee or White Salmon districts,
while only 700 cars will proceed from
Yakima. from which city $500 cars
went East last year.

Transition from the old-size
paper currency to the new
started today when the cash
room of the Treasury Depart
ment began the distribution to
Washington financial institn-
tions and to individuals Of the
new and smaller bills.
The cash room opened for bust
ness this morning with $4,000, ,000 in
the new currency in its cash boxes
and drawers. BY noon this sup
ply was virtually exhausted. the
bulk OF it having been distributed
to representatives OF banks and
other financial institutions, while
some thousands of dollars went out
in driblets to the line OF fndiyid-
uals that walked past the windows.

banks in town. and they all sent

The $4,000, 900 being distributed
here is only a sample compared TO
what is being distributed through
out the country. Most Of the banks
had received supplies OF the new

to put them on the market" to-
day.
1t Is expected that 1t will take
more than three months to accom-

end OF that period, officials OF the
Treasury estimate, the old bills of
