POISON NEEDLE"
BELIEVED STONE
Rock Flung by Passing Car
Is Blamed in "Stabbing"
of Woman.

The poisoned needle" with which an
unknown man was thought to have
stabbed Mrs. Ida While Friday was be-
lieved last night as nothing more sin
lister than a stone flung by the wheel
of passing automobile.
Mrs. While, who lives at 1909 Penn
sylvania avenue, told Third Precinct
Detective Rupert Mcneil that she and
Mrs. Irene Bohrl of the same address
were walking in the 1900 block of
Pennsylvania avenue Friday night when
she suddenly felt a singing sensation
like the burn Of a hot poker in her
left arm.
She said that she saw no one near
but that her companion called her at
tention to a man running down the
street. 1t was Mrs. Bohrl, according to
police, who advanced the theory that
the man may have stabbed Mrs. While
with poisoned needle or knife.
Mrs. While went to Nichols Phar-
macy, at Nineteenth street and Penn
Sylvania avenue, where she was given
first aid treatment by DR.. G. A. Bynum.
DR.. Bynum said the wound appeared to
him to be an abrasion and that there
was no evidence of the type of wound
such as a knife or needle normally
would make. He expressed the opinion
that Mrs. While had been struck by a
stone pitched by an automobile wheel.
There was slight swelling above the
wound Friday night, but it had disap-
peared yesterday, and Mrs. While was
able to attend to her work at the cloth
ing store in the 100 block of F street,
where she is employed.
When first interviewed at the store
by detectives Mrs. While refused to give
her home address, and the location Of
her residence was not aScertained by
police until last night. Although he
expressed the opinion that the woman
bad not been stabbed, Detective Mcneil
'ast night was continuing his efforts to
locate the man seen by Mrs. Bohrl.

GIRL GATHERS ALL
BYRD CLIPPINGS
News Stories and Photos of
Explorers Exploits Are
Kept Faithfully.

When the strong, silent men of the
Byrd party clambered down from the
stage in the Washington Auditorium
Friday evening and piled into a row of
seats down front, from which to view
the motion pictures of the epic they as
sisted in writing at the South Pole,
the heart of 23-year-old Washington
girl beat like a trip-hammer.
The heroes of the frozen south pass
ed so near to Miss Nina M. Buckley,
who lives with her parents at % Sixth
street southeast, that she could look in
tently upon each face. That moment
| crowding upon other moments, was
for her one of series of the thrills that
come 'once in a lifetime"
OF the countless thousands who ad-
mire Rear Admiral Byrd and the men,
bers of his intrepid party, for their ex-
plorationS and for the sterling qualities
of manhood which they typify. few can
furnish the evidence of esteem which
is Miss Buckley's possession. Between
the covers of two scrapbooks she has
preserved in the news writing of the
day, the moving tory Of the Virginian'S S
adventures since early in 1928, when he
first announced his determination to

Sometimes there will be a short

"and, being very tired, I will decide to
let it go. But my conscience won't let
me and I get scissors and clip 1t"

daughter has produced an interesting
pictorial record of Byrd exploration

Although she works for the Govern
ment income tax division of the Treas
ury Department, one suspects that Miss
Buckley's heart is forever with ex-
plorers. She joined the National Geo.

mother thinks 1t unusual that a young
woman should be so much interested
in exploration. A scrap book detailing
the discovery of the tomb of King
Tut" which was prepared by Miss
Buckley as carefully as the Byrd book,
indicates to the mother that her
daughters interest runs deeper than
hero worship.

Barred From Office.

Delivering another broadside Of criti-
cism at police inactivity against

Mr.. Carter last night said that while
he expects no help from police" in

Sufficient Grounds" for Act.
Of the matter.
He would not say that suspected
gambling activities brought about the
suspension of the two employees Friday.
II don't want to convict any one until

He said he suspended the supervisor
for issuing fictitious" passes for en-
ployes to leave the building during
working hours, and suspended the other
employe for leaving the office during
working hours without permission.
His criticism of police inactivity"
against gambling houses is the second
issued by the public printer in the past
several months. A few months ago Mr..
Carter engaged In public controversy
with Maj. Pratt over the operation Ct
an alleged gambling establishment for
the placing of bets on horse races and

from the printing offlce. The row grew

During the controversy when the
public printer hurled public criticism at
Mai. Pratt, the former received threat

house operators and Maj Pratt as
signed q police guard at the Carter

the public printer with a police guard

AS part of his campaign against
gambling Mr.. Carter has barred from
the Government Printing once news
papers and other publications which
carry entries and results Of horse races
and those which carry the statement OF
the New York Clearing House, upon
which the bets in the numbers" game

NDINGS DEFENDS
CAR FARE STAND
Insists Reduced Street Car Fare
Should Apply to All School
Children.

Defending his contention that the
House bill providing for a reduced car
fare for public school children should
apply to all school children, Senator
Tydings, Democrat, Of Maryland, issued
a statement yesterday giving the results
of an inquiry he has made into the
plan followed in other cities on this
question.
Senator Tydings said he found out
from the Department of Interior that in
1925 from 40 to so cities In the United
States, located in "a States, had ordi-
nances in effect granting reduced car
fare to all school children. He said
that in Louisiana and Massachusetts, it
Is done by State law.
Senator Tydings' statement in part
follows:
"At the last meeting of the Senate
committee on the District of Columbia
offered an amendment to make the
reduced fares apply to all school chill
dren. Every member of the committee
present, with the exception of Senator
RobSion of kentucky, favored my
amendment. Those present were Sena-
tors Capper, Copeland, Glass, Jones,
RobSion and myself"
Further on in his statement, Sena-
tor Tydings said that "if the bill is
passed as Senator Robson wants it.,
the City of Washington, as far as I
know, will be practically the only place
in the United States where the kind Of
qualification he advocates Is in effect" /"
Senator Robson was out of the city
yesterday, but at the meeting of the
committee he took the view that the
bill should not be extended beyond the
public schools, as provided by the
House, contending that If the Tydings
amendment were adopted the same
principle could be invoked for free
text books and appropriations for build
ings. He favored the car fare bill
without the Tydings amendment.
The bill Is still awaiting action in the
committee. Senator Tydings said tho
other members of the committee state
they will not favor the bill without his
amendment.
