RAIDERS FIND RUM
IN CASH REGISTER
COIored Grocer Faces
Chardes-4 Others Arrested
in Series of Visits.

Frank Lee, dispenser of groceries and
picked tidbits in the 1900 block of
Eleventh street. planned to fool the
police by hiding whisky where his
money ought to be, and only missed
doing so by the skin of his teeth.
Yesterday Sergt. o. j. Letterman and
his liquor raiders went to Lees grocery
and delicatessen store with a warrant
which stated that they believed whisky
was stored on the premises and that
they had come to find it.
Lee read the warrant, smiled In
a deprecatory manner, and invited the
officers to come in and hunt. They
did.
One officer explored the depths Of a
pickle barrel filled with pickles and
brine. He found nothing but pickles.
Another hunted among the delicacies
stored on the shelves, second explored
under the counter, while a third
watched Lees eyes in hope Of catching
telltale glance toward the much
most discouraging.
Finds Cash Box Locked.
Bafied, the raiders gathered behind
the counter for consultation while
Lee stood to one side and watched with
just hint of contempt in his bearing.
To stimulate his mental machinery, one
Of the policemen began playing tat
too on the keys. Of the cash register on
the counter. To the officers surprise
the cash drawer remained closed. An
examination disclosed that it was
locked. Lee was asked to unlock 1t. He
protested. There was nothing there,
he said, but bit of change taken In
on the days sales. The officers, how
ever, were skeptical It was the only
place they hadn't looked, so they broke
open the cash box. The cash drawer
slid open and revealed three pints of
whisky Embedded in dimes and quarters.
Lee, who Is 81 years old, and colored,
possession.
Two Men Arrested.
Continuing merrily on their way, the
policemen went to a shoe shining estab-
lishment in the 1000 block of Twenty
first street. where they arrested Joseph
Paterson, 19-year-old resident of Alex
ANGER court, and Arthur Mason, SO
years old. Both of the. colored men
were charged with possessing whisky
and were locked up.
MOTIFS Green, colored, and IS, re-
celved the next visit. In his eating
| house, in the 1900 block of Eighteenth
street. the police said they found a
quart OF whisky wrapped in an overcoat.
The charge against him is illegal sale
and possession.
The last place visited was a house
| in the 300 block of Fourth street, where
Pearl Morrison, colored, % years old.
was arrested. She had one quart of
whisky in her possession, 1t was charged.
The officers decided to call it a day.
| Sergt. Letterman was assisted by G. c.
McCarron, Richard Cox and J. A.
Mostyn.

SITE FOR AIRPORT
BOUGHT AT BEACH
Aviation Development Said
to Involve $675,00O
Is Announced.

Purchase of the Arlington Beach
property and plans for immediate con-
struction of 10o-acre airport on the
site Of Washington Airport and the
beach property by the Washington Air
Terminals Corporation, controlled by
the Federal Aviation Corporation OF
New York, was announced today.
In the deal which was consummated
yesterday the Washington Air Ter
minals Corporation took over the en-
tire holdings Of the United States All
Transport Co., owners of Washington
Airport; the New Washington Ain
Line, landing field at the south end
of Highway Bridge, and "Mile-Square'
Airport, about two miles below Alex
andria on the Richmond Washington
Highway.
The price for the airport property,
which win be made into q six-way
landing field and win take in all the
Arlington Beach property in addition
to the already established Washington
Airport landing field, was set at
$675, 1000, it is spnounced today.
Work of .razing the amusement park
at Arlington Beach viii be begun as
soon. as the present occupants Of the
grounds can move, 1t Is stated.
The new development, according to
plans formulated by the Washington
Air Terminals Corporation, will include
facilities for seaplane landing of
Arlington Beach, tourist and sightseeing
service expansion along the lines. al
ready operated at Washington Airport
operation of the New York-WaShington
air line and maintenance Of q siK-way
landing field for all types Of passenger
planes, servicing Of ships and entertain
ment OF visiting planes.
At the "Mile-Square" Airport, below
Alexandria, the firm plans to center Its
training activities, maintain repair and
servicing shops and to develop an all
round aviation center. This viii be
one of the first attempts to divorce the
student training activities of an avia-
ton concern from the general paSSen-
ger-carrying base. This is done, 1t Is
explained, because of the dangers in
volVed in the old system of having stu
dents flying around fields from which
passengers and tourists are expected to
take of. Students landings are not
always what they should be, and the
sight of students coming onto a field
sloppily, washing out their landing gear
or ripping a wing tip, Is not expected
to raise the morale Of the air-minded
travelling public.
Heading the new company is Howard
Sutherland, alien property custodian
and former United States Senator from
West Virginia. On the directorate are
C. Bascom Slemp, M. G. Cooper, vice
president of Federal Aviation Corpora
ton; James o. Watson of Hambleton &
Co., Maj Gen. William M. Wright
U. s. A, retired, and David K. z. Bruce
of Hartman 81 Co., bankers, son-in-law
OF Secretary Of the Treasury Andrew W.
Mellon.
The new firm has opened ofilces in
the National Press Building.
The Washington Air Terminals Cor
poration also took over from United

territory agencies for Ryan, Waco and

glowing Goals of an open fireplace are
most effective source of heat rays OF
the very highest therapeutic value"
AS a point of interest venture to add
to the list of homely sources of mira
red rays the very efficient and increas-
ingly popular radiant gas and electric
heating devices. These modern heating
units utilize the physical principle OF
an incandeScent surface, which gives of
large quantity of infra~red rays and
what Is technically known as radiant
heat.
Radiant heat from any open fire
flame, glowing Goals or incandescent
surface warns surfaces or objects in the
room, including the bodies Of occupants
rather than the air of the room. This
explains why an open fireplace is SO
comfortable, even though thermome-
ter indicates temperature several de-
greSS below that which is generally
maintained in rooms heated by air reg
listers or radiators.
Only those who have studied physics
and physics should be one of the three
or four main subjects of the first year
of any high school courSe-can under
stand what infra-red means. Almost
any one may get an inkling of its
meaning from observation of the ar
rangement Of the colors of the rain
bow-their order is red, orange, yellow,
green, blue, violet. Beyond the range
of the violet is the ultraviolet, invisi-
BILE. Below or under the red is the
infra-red, also invisible. Beyond the
violet the rays are cold. Blue is cold
color: red is a warm color Below the
red the rays are heat rays. But this
will scarcely mean anything to the un-
fortunate who has been denied a fair
education in school. I merely seek to
tell you that infra-red ray treatment
requires no special gadget.

Everyday Law Cases
Are All Communications Made IN
Presence OF Attorney Privileged?
By THE COUNSELLOR.

When Henry Smith called upon his
attorney to engage him to contest a
suit he made number of admissions
which would have materially aided the
other side Of the case. Accompanying
Smith on his visit to his attorney was
Charles Hall, one OF his friends, who
heard the admissions Smith made.
At the trial counsel for the opposing
side. learning that Hall had accom-
panied Smith to his attorneys office,
questioned him regarding the converse
ton he had heard. Smiths counsel
objected to the adnissibility of this evil
dence, citing the rule that communities
tons between an attorney and client
are privileged and confidential.
Admitting this contention to be true,
the opposing counsel maintained that
the privilege did not extend to persons
accompanying the client to an attorneys
office.
The court held Halls evidence admis-
sible, stating:
III the client chooses to. make his
statement In the presence OF persons
other than his attorney and those em-
|pioyed In the business of the attorney,
such persons are bound to disclose what
they may have heard.

He takes the point of the interview
by refusing to tell the name Of the best
talkie ever made. That's a matter OF
! opinion, as you could prove quickly by
consulting Hollywood stars.
Mary Pickford came to the premiere
of her picture in gown OF watermelon

ing gardenias. She made speech to
her audience, emphasizing the tmpor-
lance of the talkie and saying that she
would make no more silent pictures.
Soon the only way to get silence Will
be to visit deaf and dumb asylum.
Clara Bow doesn't take to talkies.
Girls of her type are accustomed to the
lift Of music when they begin ire

But in the new medium there Is q
great silence just as the dramatic mo-
ment begins.
Quiet, pleased" bawls the director,
and the silence of the grave ensues.
Out Of this silence, into which q buZzer

has to produce tremendous emotion. It
Is the most mechanical setting into
which one could try to put feeling.
