IS SUSTAINED

Action of Justice Wendell p.
Stafford of the District Supreme
Court in padlocking the garages
at 2101 Fourteenth st. N. W., and
1419 L st. N. W., used by Herbert
GlasSlnan was sustained today by

properties are owned, respectively,
by Francis w. Hill, ST., and Harry
Sherry.
Paddock proceedings were insti-
tuted by U. s. Attorney Leo A.
Rover following the arrest of
Glassman and more than a dozen
others on a charge of conspiracy
to violate the prohibition act. At

held the property owners had suf-
ficient notice of the illegal use Of

3 new FACES

FOREACH
Others in Prospect As Result
Of Election, and Possibly
Craftsmanship Is At Stake

Beyond the interest the Capital
City ordinarily shows In ma
tional election the voteless resi-
dents Of Washington viii get Q
''kick" out of tomorrow's con-
tests because of the unusual close
ness of the biennial congressional
races, and the effect the result
will have on the makeup Of the
District Of Columbia committees
of the next Senate and House.
Regardless Of the outcome to-
morrow, and whether Congress
stays Republican or goes Demo
cratic, it is already assured there
will be important changes In
membership Of the Senate and
House District groups.
Other Changes in PrOspect
Primary defeats, voluntary re-
tirements and death have assured
that. 1t is an interesting sitla-
ton, with other changes IN pros
pect. because the two District
committees virtually dictate legiS-
lative policies for the Capital:
With the craftsmanship Of the
House District Committee at
stake as Representative Fred
erick N. Zihlman (R-) and for"
noer Representative David J.
Lewis CD close a bitter fight IN
the sixth Maryland, these other
changes are bound to come:
"A successor must be named IN
December to Representative
Tamuert (R.) wisconsin, who
died during the summer recess.
Two members of the DistricS
Committee were defeated IN the
primaries and their posts Will ne
filled at the beginning OF tne nsns
Congress. They are RepTesega

Three New Faces Sure
