COUNTY BUILDING
DISPOSAL SOUGHT
Silver Spring Structure Held Too
Small for Business in
Montgomery.
BY a Stan Correspondent Of The Star.

BY Stan Correspondent Of The Star.
ANNAPOLIS. Md, April 3.-Mont-
gomery County Commissioners have
found the County Building at Silver
Spring inadequate because of the steady
increase In the volume Of county bust
ness, and are considering selling it and
erecting new and larger structure.
This was revealed yesterday when
Senator Robert G. Hilton moved to re-
commit a bill so as to add an amend
ment giving the commissioners author
ity to sell the property and apply the
proceeds toward the new building. SEN
ator Hilton said the commissioners now
have an offer for the property.
The bill recommitted at the request Of
Senator Hilton yesterday was a House
measure, on third reading file, which
authorizes a 100000 bond issue for the
completion Of the new court house at
Rockville
Authority for the sale Of the present
building at Silver Spring would nor
mally be provided in a separate bill. but
in view Of the few days remaining be-
fore the Legislature adjourns and the
difficulty Of getting a new bill through
both Houses in that time, the proposal
was incorporated in an amendment to
the court house bill, which requires only
one more reading in the Senate before
going to the Governor.
The commissioners are still undecided
as to whether 1t would be better to
erect an addition to the present County
Building, or sell the structure and erect
a new one. The amendment gives them
authority to follow the former course If
1t Is finally agreed upon.

SENATE APPROVES
I. S|GNBOARD REPORT
Maryland Upper House Gives
Unanimous Approval
to Measure.
BY a stan Correspondent of The star.


ANNAPOLIS, Md, April 3.-Follow-
ing the example set by the House Of
Delegates last week. the Maryland Sen
ate last night approved without COM
ment or debate a favorable report on
the bill to license and regulate road
side signs in Maryland and place an
annual area tax or fee on all billboards.
The report was submitted by Senator
Lansdale G. ~Sasscer, chairman OF the
Finance Committee, shortly after the
upper branch convened.
All Present Voted for Passage.
A formal roll call followed on the
adoption Of the report and showed all
Senators present voting in the affirma-
tive. A minor amendment, correcting
a typographical error, was then sub
mitted by Senator Sasscer and prompt
ly adopted.
President Walter j. Mitchell of
Charles County then ordered the bill
passed to third reading.
The adoption of the favorable report,
placing the bill on third reading file,
clears the way for its final passage to-
day. Advocates of the measure are
branch and sent to the Governor before
the end of the week
The minor amendment, which merely
changes the word or to of" how
ever, means that the bill will have to
be returned to the House TO have this
feature concurred in, before 1t can be
sent to the Governor.
Although the vote in committee on
the bill was reported as being to 3 in
favor of the report, and hackers Of the
proposal worked feverishly all day to
assure its passage in the face Of last
minute announcement by some Sena-
tors that they would speak against it,
not g. single word Of protest was raised
when the report was read.
License Fee and Tax Provided.
The measure will require all outdoor
advertising companies to operate under
the supervision of the State Roads Com
mission, pay an annual license fee Of
5000 and a tax Of one-half cent per
square foot on each individual sign.
The terms Of the bill are regarded as
so reasonable and its purpose so mer-
itorious that representatives of the bill
board companies themselves told the
Senate committee they were 100 per cent
for 1t. The House of Delegates passed
the measure through three readings
without dissenting vote.

Jury MAY RECEIVE
LURAY CASE TODAY
Testimony on BIoodhoundS'
Work in Murder Trail Fea-
lures Trial.
Special Dispatch to The star.


LURAY, Va. April 3.-The case of
David Sours, who is being tried for the
murder of Ed Burracker on March 6,
likely will reach the jury late this aft
ernoon. 1t was expected that the de-
Tense rebuttal and instructions would
be completed during the day.
Yesterdays session was featured by
the testimony both of the Rev. Rad
ford of Staunton, owner of the blood
hounds used in the case, and the wife
Of the defendant, the latter giving a de-
tailed account of the whereabouts of
her husband on the day Of the murder.
Explains Training Of Hounds.
Mr.. Radford related in detail his six
years of experience in training dogs to
track down criminals before telling of
his entry into the present case.
Upon arriving at the scene of the
murder, his dogs were permitted to
smell the head and face of the dead
man, he said, and were then given their
heads. They took a devious route down
a deep ravine, he testified, crossed and
re-croSsed a stream and finally emerged
upon public road, from which place
they proceeded to the home of the de-
PENDANT.
The defense brought out in cross
one of the dogs had failed in the work
for which it was trained, the cases
being enumerated by counsel.
The State then rested and Claude
and Cecil Weaver were called as the
first defense witnesses. They testified
that Sours was at their home from IL
to IL o'clock on the day of the murder
Defendants Wife Testifles.
Following them on the stand was the
frail, 2l-year-old wife of the defendant.
She recited in detail the actions of her
husband both on the day of the muir
der and the day following. Her testi-
mony was given in calm and concise
manner and she was mistaken under q
croSs-examination. Her story
OF the arrival at her home Of the blood
hounds differed in many respects from
that Of the owner.
The prosecution forced from Claude
Weaver, first defense witness, an ad-
to the effect that Sours had
told him he had shot at some one who
was either Ed. Burracker or some one
who looked like him about three weeks
before the murder.

BAN ON REVOKING
AUTO PERMITS HIT
States Protest Bill to Stop
Canoeing of Drunk
Drivers Licenses.
BY a Stan Correspondent of tn. star.


ANNAPOLIS, Md, April S.--With
letters Of protest from the District Of
Columbia and several others States
piling up on his desk, Gov. Richie to-
day had not made up his mind whether
he would veto the bill prohibiting the
motor vehicle commissioner from revok-
ing permits of Maryland autoists con-
victed Of serious traffic of1enses in other
States.
All of the letters declared enactment
of the bill would upset the reciprocal
agreement by which Maryland, the Dis
trict of Columbia and several other
States revoke permits of persons con-
victed of driving while drunk in juris-
dictions outside their borders.
Reciprocal Agreement.
At present If Marylander Is con-
victed Of drunken driving in Washing
ton, the Maryland commissioner of mo-
tor vehicles revokeS his permit, and,
similarly, the District of Columbia traf-
fic authorities revoke permits of Wash
ingtonianS convicted Of the same Of
tense in Maryland
Members of the Legislature said.
however, that the system has worked
undue hardships on several Maryland
ers convicted before county police mag
istrates in bordering States on evidence
said to have been flimSy.
The legislators further contend that
II a man is so fragrant a violator OF the
traffic rules that his permit should be
revoked, he will inevitably be convicted
in his home State Of serious offense.
viii Not Kill Agreement.
They say it will not break up the
reciprocal agreement, as the District
of Columbia and the other States can,
If they choose to do so, suspend or
revoke the permits of their own resi-
dents convicted of drunken driving in
Maryland.
The bill was introduced in the Sen
ate by Senator S. Scott Beck of Kent
County and specifically states that the
commissioner of motor vehicles may
license of any Maryland motorist "for
any cause arising in this State"
1t was passed by the upper branch
March 5 and by the House of Dele
gates, with some minor amendments
to assure the person convicted of a
hearing before the motor vehicle COM
missioner or his assistants, on March
81.
Many Letters Protest.
Letters and kilograms of protest re-
ceived by Gov. Richie are from traffic
officials and motor associations in Del
aware. Pennsylvania, North Carolina
and the District Of Columbia. Mr..
Richie said he had not yet had time
to study them all. Advocates OF the
BILL however, were fearful the execu-
tive would be influenced by the argyll
ment. set forth in all the commune
cations, that the reciprocal agreements
would be upset, and veto the measure.
Among those who have filed pro-
tests with the Governor are Traffic Di-
rector Harland of Washington and Col.
A. B. Barber, traf1c expert Of the

NEW LIFE

NEW YORK, June UN.S0
Back in the days when a nickel
could buy something other than
even good scent cigar, when
baseball did not have the dead
ended ball impressed on the con-
sciousness of the hitter. Otis
Crandall, of the Giant pitchers,
was given a doctors degree by
the diamond fraternity for his
ability to inject winning hokum
into gasping ball games.
To John PicuS Quinn, the ven
erable right-hander Of the Robins,
should be given the title of pro-
fessor for his skill in relieving
Brooklyn distress in dire pitching
moments.
On the first six occasions
this season that the moist ball
specialist was called on to Op-
crate, Prof. Quinn came through
with a steady hand and noble
heart.
At first it was the intention
of the head man of Flatbush,
Wilbert Robinson, to have Quinn
regular starting pitcher for the
Robins, but the Braves disproved
the wisdom of any such scheme
when they shelled the ancient
one off the rubber in the seasons S
opener in Boston.
So, adapting himself to the oc-
casion. Uncle Wilbert switched
John Picus to a relief role, and
John Picus has just about become
the Otis Crandall of this genera
tion.
That fellow" Uncle Robbie
said of Quinn recently, "has
earned his salary with our club
on the strength of what he
has dome"
