Special Dispatch to The star.

Special Dispatch to The star.
FAIRFAX, Va, July IA strong
public sentiment in favor of vocational
training, with most of the speakers
advocating such instruction at one CEN
trail point in Fairfax County was re-
vealed Saturday at the public hearing
held by a joint committee of school
board trustees and supervisors.
Delegations or individuals from all
six districts of the county were among
those who filled the board room to over
flowing. Sentiment of those in atten-
dance was practically unanimous in
advising financing new construction
by means of a countrywide bond issue
and in advocating increased taxes for
school Improvements.

The Vienna delegation, headed BY
l.. l.. Freeman and including Mrs. John
Warnock Echolls. Mrs. S. c.. Stuntz,
Joseph Berry. Mayor Edgar r. Bennett,
F.. A. Wilcox and Fred Cunningham
pointed out the advantages of Vienna
as the site for the proposed high school.
They backed their arguments by offer
ing the school board choice of two
sites for the new plant.
Mason HirSt and Martin Webb, rep
reSenting Annandale, pledged the sup
port of that community toward develop
ment of central school.
A. B. Carter of Burke stated that the
people of Lee district favor a site near
Fairfax. John M. Whalen of the Fair
fax Town Council, said he had no par
ticular site to offer, but pointed out
that Fairfax or vicinity has claims to
both geographical and population CEN
tiers. Mrs. ]. U. Kincheloe, while adding
Yd VNtc for
school rather than vocational depart
ments in the present local plants urged
that the supervisors continue the build
ing levy by means Of which the present
clerks Office was built. F.. S. Nc
Candlish, Fairfaxs representative on
the County School Board stated he is
anxious to have vocational training
made available to every child in the
county even If 1t is necessary to sacri-
flee college entrance requirement SUBJ
Jects to make room in the curriculum.
For Departments in Schools.
r. Cotton Lewis of Clifton, represent
ing CenterVille Grange, advocated vo-
cational departments in all the county
high schools. Franklin Williams urged
that Fairfax County emulate the ex-
ample recently set by Arlington County
and pass a bond issue to provide for
real vocational expansion.
Capt, Thurlow White of Baileys Cross
Roads took issue with Lewis on his plea
for vocational departments, arguing
that decentralized schools were much
more expensive, both in equipment and
costs.
Rev. j. G. Sadtler representing the
MCLEAN Community League pledged
that community's support to the prin-
ciple of vocational training and its de-
sire to cooperate in establishing such
q school at one central point in the

made plea for communities to set
aside their community pride and work
for the benefit of the entire county.

testing the removal of the agricultural

the board to reconsider its action, and
stating that the two committees unan-

HEARINGS TO Be.

TREATY
Senator Blaine Not Sure
II Committee Will Resume
Or Be Recessed Until Fall

While Joseph Shapiro, presi-
dent Of Joseph Shapiro Co., Inc.
real estate brokers, is at liberty
under $4,000 bond, the United
States Attorneys investigators
are making a further investiga.
ton into his real estate dealings.
The specific charge on which
a warrant for the arrest Of Sha-
piro was made was that Of
false pretenses in the sale OF
a house to a Government en-
ploye. His arrest followed a
threat by the Senate subcommit-
tee that criminal action would
follow the investigation it made.
Mortgages Hidden
Shapiro was summoned before
the committee Thursday and re-
fused to waive immunity on SINH
lar charges, it was said, made by
eight witnesses and he was ex-
cused from testifying.
The warrant on which he vol
unfairly presented himself yeSter-
day was issued at the instance Of
Walter s. Frisbie, 1718 Irving Pl.
N. w. It was also in that sec
tion that several witnesses told
the investigating committee they
were living under hidden" mort
cages.
United States Attorney Rover
said that while eight persons have
complained, he expects many
more applications for warrants
for Shapiro. Shapiro's hearing
on the Frisbie charge will take
place before United States Com.
missioner Needham C. Turnage,
August S.
False Pretense
Rover explained that Shapiro
is charged with falsely repre-
senting to Frisbie that the latter's
home on Irving Street was clear
of all incumberanceS except
$4,000 at the time it was sold to
Frisbie by Shapiro.
The real estate man is accused
of concealing the fact that q
second lien Of $4,000 was held
against the property.
It was said that certificate of
title had never been transferred to
Frisbie who did not become aware
of the $4,000 mortgage until
Shapiro had paid all but $500 Of it.
Senator Blaine, chairman Of the
Senate District Subcommittee
which has launched an inquiry
into real estate transactions in
the capital ana before which
appeared a half dozen witnesses
who complained concerning the
Shapiro Company, was unable to
say today when the Senate hear,
hlgS will be resumed.
The Wisconsin Senator has
many witnesses under subpoena
and they have been directed to
stay within call of the committee.
which may resume hearings next
week or may recess until next fan
Senator Blaine said:

will resume, but we have had
an excellent start and can pick

tiOn at any time"

there Is no rain, Maryland au-
tl1otities claim, residents In their
Jurisdictions will be forced to cut

even now warnings have been Is
sued and action threatened.
The first move was taken late
yesterday by the Washington

which supplies most Of the water
to. the so 900 persons, when IL
asked all local volunteer fire corn.a

Daily Use Huge
One million gallons of water are
being pumped daily from the Dis
trict reservoirs into the Maryland
conduitS, which connect at Rhode
Island Avenue and the District
Line. Meanwhile, q second con-
nection with the. states supply is
being rushed ut Chevy Chase and
hopes are that work may be COM
pleted before serious need arises.
Chief Engineer Robert B. Morse.
Of the suburban sanitary commits
sion, today told The washington
Times. that there were scarcely
"a. 900 900 gallons Of water in the
Burnt Mills Reservoir, and that
the flow into the storage was
about 1,S00. 600 gallons q day.
This, against the consumption

merlt to the extent Of onehan in

an additional half million gallons
daily for the use of Maryland
residents and win probably be in
use by wednesday. Over this

win only be pumped during the

ton at salary. of $4,000. No
contract was made, it being
agreed that his services should
be terminated at the pleasure of
the commissioners,
