D. G. Security, Complaints
Deluge Blaine;s Office

Deluged in the last few weeks

the origin in Washington of
virtually valueless securities, -
Senator John j. Blaine (R) of
Wisconsin, announced today that
he intends to keep active through

which during the last winter in
vestigated the local securities
field.
Senator Blaine pointed out
that his committee, which un-
covered sensational evidences of
issuance of fraudulent securities,
has full authority to continue its
investigation during the recess of
Congress. The committee is a
subcommittee of the Senate Dis
trict committee. During receSSeS

IN COSTS.
Corporation Counsel Fearful
Utility May Tilt Operating
Expense; Financing Probed

A double -barreled investigation
into ownership of the Washing
ton Gas Light Company was in
full swing today.
While Assistant Corporation
Counsel William A. Roberts was
in Boston studying the history
of the formation of the holding
corporation that bought out the
local company, agents of the
Department of Justice in Chicago,
New York and several other cities
received instructions bearing on
other phases of the investigation.
The Seaboard Investment Trust
is the holding corporation which
bought out the local company
two years ago. The corporation
recently was renamed the Wash
ington and Suburban Companies.
Agents at the Chicago head
quarters, it is believed, will inveS-
tigate the possible connection of
the gigantic Central Public Ser
vice Corporation with the Wash
ingtOn and Suburban Companies.
Corporation Counsel Bride
warned the Public Utilities COM
mission that the Washington Gas
Light Company might attempt to
increase operating costs by nay
ing a higher price for natural

A decision of Judge Ralph
Given in Police Court today over
ruled the contention of the Great
Eastern Stage bus line when he
found A. Joseph Mcmahon, driver
for the bus line, guilty of fail
ing to park a bus within one
foot of the curb on E Street
near Fourteenth Street North
west.
Mcmahon, through attorneys
for the bus line, contended that
the regulation of the Public Utili-
ties Commission with regard to
unloading passengers by inter
state bus companies at this point
was unreasonable. The ruling
Stipulates that buses should stop
within one foot of this area.
Judge Given has been consid-
ering the company's claim since
early this month and upheld the
Public Utilities Commission con-
tention. He will impose sentence
within a few days.

IS Letters in Name
Blamed for Jinx
Of BicvcliSt

Daniel j. Curtin-who, by
the way, has 13 letters in his
name, breathed a sigh as mid
night struck and Friday the
Thirteenth gave way to today.
Yesterday, Mr.. Curtin was
riding his bicycle at Sixteenth
and L Streets Northwest, when
he was struck by an auto
mobile operated by Floyd Sat
terfield, of Fairfax, Va.
The motoriSt helped Mr..
Curtin into his car and started
to Emergency Hospital. Just
as he got under way Mr.. Sat
terfield's car collided with an
other, said to have been driven
by Harry S. Mackerly.
Finally Mr.. Curtin reached
the hospital, however, and was
treated for minor decorations
of the scalp. He was content
to remain for a while, however,
and not risk tempting the
Thirteen Jinx" again.

To Curb Frauds
The Wisconsin Senator believes
that through it's powers of
publicity and its power to
subpoena witnesses, the committee
will be able to exert a tremen
dous amount of moral suasion'
during the recess in curbing any
tendency toward fraud in the
issuance of securities.
Ever since his committee re-
ported in the Senate prior to
adjournment and obtained pass
age of recommended legislation,
Senator Blaine said, he has been
flooded with letters from all
parts of the country telling of
losses suffered through invest,
ments issued LOCALLY and on local
projects.
Bill Strengthens P. U. C.
These letters have served to
strengthen Senator Blaine's deter
mination to force through Con
gress the three bills recommended
by his committee. One of these
would give the Public Utilities
Commission authority to scrutin,
ize all securities before they are
offered for sale, one would license
real estate operators and the other
would provide for mortgage fore.
closures.
Senator Blaine said today that
Judging by the numbers Of letters
from other States which he has
received there will be considerable
more support for his bills in the
coming session. He believes that

SLAIN SON

An attempt to reopen the in
vestigation of the killing Of Will
liam Huff by Ira Hurtha Dulaney,
who shot the man down when he
found him in his home last Mon
day night, may be made by rela-
tives of the slain man, it was in
timated today.
Following Huff'S funeral mem
berS of the family refused to dis
cuSs the case, other than to hint
they may seek to have it reOpened,
despite the Grand Jury'S release
of Dulaney.
Few Attend Funeral
Only a few persons attended
final rites for Huff at the Alex
andria Cemetery yesterday. Among
them was his mother.
The shooting which climaxed an
intimacy between Huff and Mrs.
Dulaney took place in the pres
ence of two of the four children
of the couple at 1917 H st. N. E.
Albert A. Huff, father of the
slain man, told police in defense
of Huff that his son had been
trying to effect a reconciliation
between Mrs. Dulaney and her
husband.
Wife Shifts Blame
Mrs. DuIaney declared, however,
that the guilt was not all hers
as she had told Huff on many
occasions that they had better
not see each other as her huS-
band might find them and a
tragedy result.
The husband who has taken his
wife back, says he intends to
move his family away and start
life anew in an endeavor to
erase the memory of the past few
weeks.
