higher officials of the police and
fire departments, and that ne

HITS WIFE, GETS
SIX MONTHS

If you must strike a man do it
in a nice way was the famous re-
mark of Major Edwin B. Hesse,
former police superintendent, in
instructions to the force, quoted
widely throughout the country.
Frank Carlo, TOO block Second
st. N. E., contended in Police
Court yesterday that he struck his
wife "just a little bit" but Judge
Ralph Given disagreed with him
and sent him to Jail for six
months.
Carlo admitted twice under
questioning that he struck Mrs.
Carlo with a water pail, and
added 1t was "just a little Bit"
A policeman, however, testified
that it was no small matter, for
the defendants family was partly
dependent on charity, and the
wife twice attempted to buy poi
son at a drug store to kill herself.
You go to jail Just a little Bit
for six months" said the judge.

CLASS DOUBTS
GENERAL s
STATUS
Capper Won't Press Naming
of Soldier Until Study of
Eligibility Is Completed

Although the Senate District
committee voted late yesterday,
to 2, to make a favorable
report on the nomination of
Major General Herbert B. CroS-
by, retired, as District Commis-
sioner the Senate itself will de-
lay action, pending further in
|, curry by Senator Garter Glass,
Id, Virginia, concerning the
status of General Crosby.
Senator Glass expresses doubt
Of the legality of the appointment
Of General Crosby as civilian"
Commissioner and believes there
was a ruling by the Department
OF Justice several years ago which
held retired army officers in
eligible for this District position.
In consequence of the Glass
position Chairman Capper, of the
District committee, has agreed
not to press the Crosby nomina-
ton on the floor until Senator
Glass has made further study
OF the Crosby eligibility Ques-
ton.
Records Are Silent
At yesterdays meeting there
was read a letter from Attorney
General Mitchell, saying he could
find nothing in recent records
Of the Justice Department bear
ing out the Glass contention.
Senator Glass had caused de-
lay in committee action by as
Serting he understood that when
Associate Justice Stone was At
torney General he had informed
President Coolidge that he could
not appoint Major General Will
lam Black as civilian commits
sioner.
The attorney general said he
could find no such ruling by
Stone and that the present asso-
ciate justice said he had never
rendered such an opinion.
Senator Glass was certain, how.
ever, that some predecessor Of
Attorney General Mitchell, posi-
bly, John G. Sargent, had rem
dered an opinion to this effect
and the Department of Justice
was requested to investigate fur
ther.
Will Object on Floor
Pending the conclusion of the
investigation which Senator Glass
personally will make. the Senate
will postpone action on the
Crosby nomination. Both Sena-
tor Glass and Senator Copeland
Do, New York. who cast the
only opposing votes against
crosby in committee, said they
would carry their objections to
the floor.
Meanwhile, the favorable re-
port on the nomination Of DR..
Luther Reichelderfer to be the
second newly appointed District
Commissioner, is before the Sen
ate, but it is expected that the
crosby and Reichelderfer appoint.
ments will be considered together.

HANGAR BLAZE
DAMAGE IS
$4,000
Flames Endanger 2 Planes;
Entire Field Personnel
Fights to Save Buildings

Officials at Boiling Field to-
day started an inquiry into the
cause Of the fire which yester-
day destroyed q hangar and 2S
parachutes at the field, causing
damage estimated at between
$4,000 and $4,000.
Major H. c. Davidson, com.
mandant at the field called every
available man at the post out
to battle the flames. which for
a time threatened to raze the
entire field. Just what caused
the fire could not be ascertained
last night, although it was hinted
that it might have been of in
cendiary origin.
Every able bodied man at the
post, from private to commits
stoned officer. was called into
action as the flames gained
headway. Before the fields equip
ment could be brought into play
the first structure was a mass Of
ruins.
Famed by the wind the flames
made a leap of over 3O-feet to the
hangar in which a SikorSky
amphibian and a Douglas OC2
we're stored. Attaches wheeled
the planes to safety, a scant few
minutes before the whole building
was enveloped in flames.
-Four alarms we're sent in for
District fire-fighting apparatus
before the blaze was brought
under control and the rest of the
buildings saved. Assistant Chief
Engineer F. w. Nicholson, in
charge Of the fire apparatus from
the District, supervised the work,
saving hundreds Of thousands Of
dollars worth Of equipment In
other structures.

Throws Milk Bottle
Through Window VainIY

An unidentified thief made an
unsuccessful attempt to rob the
show window of the Working
Mans Store, 900 block H st. N.
E., by hurting a quart milk
bottle through the plate glass
window.
The bottle evidently missed its
mark, however, and the place
broken in the glass was so small
that none Of the clothing on dis
play Sould be dragged through
it. Fingerprints on the milk
bottle offered the only clues to
the identity of the burgler.
The store, it is understood, Is
in the hands of the receivers and
has been closed for several days.

It is anticipated that during

statement of Representative Glib

past Congress. that approximately
5000 bootleggers are operating in
