OWNERS ASSA|L
REGULATION

FAIRFAX. Va, June 4. - The
recent edict of the State high
way commission that automobiles
cannot park on the State right-of
way while stopping for gas at
filling stations is causing conSid-
cradle resentment on the part
of the motoring public as we'll
as the garage owners in Fairfax
county.
A number of State signs forbid
ding parking for gas have mys-
teriously disappeared and several
filling station proprletorS whose
business has been seriously cur
tailed by the State ban are plan
ming to enter suit to enjoin the
highway commission from en-
forcing its rule.
Gas Stations Posted
All of the filling stations IN
the county on State roads ex-
cept those within the limits of
incorporated communities have
been posted where the pumps are
so located that cars must stop
on the State right-ofway to take
on gas. In many instances 1t
is claimed, the gas stations stand
we'll back from the road and
customers do not interfere in any
way with traffic as only a small
per cent of the right-of way is
paved and the remainder is re-
served by the State only Tor III,
ture road widening purposes.
1t is the prevailing opinion that
the State is exceeding its author
ity in enforcing the new ruling,
especially as it was held two
years ago when local police were
attempting to break up petting
parties parked by the roadside
| that there was no law to prevent
car from parking on the right
of-way if off the concrete and not
obStruCting traffic.
Signs Torn Down
At Tyson's Corners, S. C
Myers protested against the cree
ton of two large State placards
in front of his store, claiming
| that these signs were set off the
right-of and on his own
property and that the sign posts
were so placed they prevented
customers from entering his store
When the State forces failed to
remove them, Myers tore them
down and threw them away
This action was followed by a
warrant for his arrest.
State signs forbidding parking
erected in front of a filling sta
tion operated by G. Manuel neal
Fairfax disappeared after they
were demolished, it is claimed
by a passing motorist whose car
was damaged when he drove into
them in the dark. Manuel now
threatens to use force if neccs
sary to block further attempts oy
the State to erect placards on
what he claims is his property.

STATE LEGISLATURE MAY
BE CONVENED BY RITCHIE
.Insurgent Bloc Promises that No
Embarrassing Questions Will
Be Brought Up at Meeting

The proposed special session
of the Maryland General Assem-
bly, drew step nearer last night
with promises from the anti
Richie or insurgent bloc in the
last session that it's members
would not bring any embarrass-
ing questions before the meeting
if Governor Richie calls it to act on
dates for registration for the fall cleo
tions.
Daniel D. Joseph, delegate from
Baltimore City and leader of the in
surgents at the 1929 session of the
Assembly, yesterday advised the ex-
ecutive that nothing to embarrass him
would be attempted, and that the bus
mess of the meeting probably could
be accomplished in one day.
A proposal to have the special ses-
sion, if called, &C ito set aside disa-
greement between the chairmen of
the Democracti and Republican State
Committees over the date for the pri-
mary election, was advanced yester-
day by party leaders and election Of
ficials in Baltimore.
Chairmen Fail To Agree.
At present the primary 81 to be held
Monday, September 8, the date fixed
by law when no agreement is reached
for another date by the chairmen.
The Democratic Committee set Tues
day, September 9, on advice from the
chief clerk of the election board in
Baltimore, an dordered ]. Enos Ray,
chairman, to confer with Galen L..
TAFT, Republican chairman, to seek the
setting of that date by agreement. Mr..
TAFT refused to meet Mr.. Ray.
The agitation for a special session
of the Assembly was started after it
was revealed that the four registration
days provided for Baltimore City con-
f1ict with the two most sacred hol-
idays of the Jewish church, and the
result that approximately $4,000 Jews
would be disfranchised through inabil-
ity to register.
Governor Richie is considering the
matter, already given the backing OF
the president of the Senate, speaker
of the House and the majority floor
leaders of both parties.

City Hall Improvement to be
Completed in Short Time

The improvements at the City Hall,
made so as to accommodate the large
equipment of the volunteer fire depart
ment, will be completed within two
weeks, according to Mayor Stemple.
The original stairway leading to the
upper floor of the building has been
torn away, thus giving an additional
six feet for the fire engines, which
will enable the trucks to have a
quicker getaway during fires. An
other stairway to replace the one re-
moved has been erected in the rear
part of the building with entrance
from an alleyway. A cement walk,
with railing, leading from Third street
to the stairway entrance, will be built.
The improvements will also provide
greater space on the second floor hall
in which meetings of the American
Legion, fire department, boys band
and boy scouts, as well as community
gatherings are held.

WAR MOTHER, RETURNING
FROM FRANCE Is INJURED
Mrs. VIM. KiIdOw, Oakland, Re-
ceived Fractured Hip On Board
The Steamship Roosevelt

Mrs. Delilah Kildow, of Oakland, re-
ceived fractured hip when she Stun
bled over a suit case in her state
room on the liner President Roose-
welt, as she was returning from her
trip to France in which 231 Gold Star
mothers had visited their sons graves.
She was given medical attention by
DR.. Walker, the ships surgeon, and a
splint was fashioned by the ships car
penter in which the leg was bound, un-
til she reached the pier at New York
when she was taken to st. Vincent's
hospital in an ambulance.
1t was uncertain at.irst just what
injuries she had sustained, but a
telegram on Tuesday morning from
the hospital to Mr.. William Kildow,
her husband, stated that her hip had
been fractured and that it would be-
necessary for her to remain in the
hospital there for several weeks.
The accident happened last Friday
as she was entering her cabin. "She
is a wonderful woman, one member
of the 231 returning Gold Star moth
ers, said. "She was the only gold
star mother from Garrett county, "
years old, and she was always smil-
ing and full of life. You'd never think
she was anywhere near that age"
In her cabin after the accident, Mrs.
Kildow was cheerful. "I'll be all
right soon," she said.
Mrs. Kildow left Oakland on June
~ for New York City from which
port she sailed for France with other
Gold Star mothers, and visited the
grave of her son, Proctor Kildow,
killed in action at Chateau Thierry
during the early days of this country's
entrance into the conflict. Corporal
Kildow was a member of the Marine
corps. The local Legion post received
a letter from Mrs. Kildow last week
telling how much she was enjoying
her trip.
