Bureau.

Final action on the recommendation
Of the Engineer Bureau on recruiting
service on the FOXhail Village Potomac
Heights bus line and changing the lOca
ton Of its city terminus and also MAX
ing certain changes in the present
schedule has been delayed by the
Public Utilities Commission. The COM
mission directed that the entire matter
bn again referred to the engineers for
further study with a view to routing
buses more directly 10 the proposed
terminal at Tenth and E streets.
Patrons of the bus line have asked
that the downtown terminal, now at
Fifteenth and I streets, be moved to a
more convenient location, nearer the
heart Of the congested area. Requests
were made 10 change the late night
schedule so the last bus would leave
At II O'Clock instead Of 10, for the con-
NenienCe Of theater-GOers, and to change
the schedule of the morning hours so
buses would leave the suburban term-
nal at and $3.50 am instead Of 8:08
and 6 80 am.

Crusaders Attack Administra-
tion Of Liquor Law As Ex-
pensiVe to Property Rights

The Federal Government, now
seeking means of making real es.
tate loans more liquid, today was
charged with freezing" from $125,-
100000 to $3.50, 100000 worth of
property each year in its enforce
ment Of the prohibition law.
The novel attack upon methods
Of dry law enforcement was made
BY the Crusaders. militant anti,
prohibition organization.
Loss Runs Millions
. In its use of paddock" proceed
iags, Frank P. Morse, spokesman
for the Crusaders, said the Gov.
ernment Is contributing to real eS-
tate difficulties. He estimated the
income lost by these proceedings
at $39, 900, 900 in the last two years.
Analyzing the report of the De
partment of Justice, Mr.. Morse
found that in the fiscal year end
Ing June 80, 1880, a total of 1901
tnjunctionS were obtained and in
the fiscal year ending last June
so the total was 6,674.
Survey Made Here
The injunctions prohibited the
use Of the property because of vio-
lations of the liquor law.
Estimating the value of each
piece Of property at S25,OOO-
based upon . study of paddock
ing" in the District, the Crusaders
report set the total value in 1880
% $22O,OOO,OOO and in 1881 at

Smoke Masks Fail
Firemen Routed By
Stencil Bomb

Members. of several fire COM
panies in Washington are learn
ing to be detectives and will
seek the perpetrator of ar OBJ
noxious Halloween trick.
A fire alarm brought them
rolling up to an apartment
house at Fifth and Kenyon SITS.
N. W.. early yesterday.
The fire fighters dashed into
the building. carrying their
hoses. nozzles, and other ap-
paratus. They dashed right
out again.
Someone had set off a stencil
bomb in the establishment and
not even the smoke masks of
the firemen offset the odor. 1t
took some time to air out the
building,
