CHURCHBUY
REALTY
Property Next to EdifiCe Is
Acquired; Noted Cleric to
Join Local Congregation

The New York Avenue Presby-
terian Church took a long step
forward in its enterprise Of ex-
pansion at a meeting of the con-
gregation Thursday evening.
The historic church, known
throughout Presbyterianism n d
throughout the country for its
historical inheritance, has pur-
chased another building for its
ever-enlarging program. This is
the second property it has OBJ.
tained recently. The property
purchased is directly west of the
parish house and is now occupied
by restaurant.
Made Near East Study
The church has also invited in
this program Of expansion the
Rev. Andrew Melrose Brodie to
be associated with it. DR.. Brodie
is nationally known for his sig
nificant work on the study of
religious conditions during the
war and as the national repre-
sentative Of the Near East Re
lief.
During that administration he
had his offices in Washington
and Travelled extensively through
out the country in the interest of
that movement.

TRANSF ORMER
RIGHT GIVEN

After refusing to grant a per
NIT to the Virginia Public Ser
vice Company to erect a trans
former in a residential area in
Bancroft, at their last meeting,
the Arlington county board. Of
supervisors yesterday reversed
their position and granted a 80.
day permit for the erection OF
the transformer with the proviso
that it must conform with speci'
fications of the county engineer
Thomas w. Phillips, attorney
for the Public Service Company,
presented a number of petitions
signed by residents of the area
approving the transformer, which
will be located in a section which
is not yet thickly built up.
The permit was opposed by
Supervisor Hedrick, however, on
the ground that the land would
be developed within a short time
as residential and, in view Of
the building of the Lee Boulevard
and unless the transformer Is
properly built and beautified, it
would prove detriment to the
development of the section.

POLICE MOTOR
REPAIR FUND
EXHAUSTED
Department, Lacking Funds,
Faces Foot Duty in Event
Machines Get Out of Order

The fund available for repair
Of automobiles, motorcycles and
other vehicles of the police de.
partment has been exhausted
and the department is now in
an embarrassing situation.
The situation gives rise to
numerous "ifs." For example:
If all the police patrols broke
down today. policemen would be
forced either to, walk their pris-
opers to station houses.
Radio Cars Disliked
If all the emergency automo-
bileS of the department were
crippled, detectives would be
forced either to ride street cars,
hike it, or bum" rides In answer.
ing emergency calls.
But, there is no eff" connected
with this incident. Since radio
equipped cars were placed in ser
vice and detectives assigned to
touring duty in them, the assign
ment has never been popular with
the sleuthS.
The other day the force as
signed to one of the radio cars
at the Detective Bureau got a
''break." The car broke down.
One detective and two policemen
were relieved of their unpopular
assignment until the car was re-
paired and placed in service. But
there was no money available for
repairing the car.
Two on Repair Job
Last night the car was again in
service and the crew resumed its
unpopular task. It so happened
that one Of the detectives had a
friend in the automobile repair
business, who fixed the car gratis.
