COME anglers wonder why rockhsh

vicinity on successive days. The
reason Is that these fish travel very fast,
and recent tests disclosed the fact that
some of them covered 30 miles In two
days.
DR.. John C. Pearson, assistant aquatic
biologist of the United States Bureau of
Fisheries, has completed study of mi
grafton Of striped bass in the waters Of
Chesapeake Bay. DR.. Pearson tagged a
great many of these rock at different
points along the bay. Some of them
were caught by anglers many miles away
in two or three days, and one bunch
tagged and liberated az Annapolis was
caught as far away as Havre de Grace

weeks

After listening to short speeches from
Commissioner OMalley, Deputy Com

Denmead of the Bureau of Fisheries and
Dr. w. B. Holton of the American Uni

this evil.
There is hardly a stream In the
country that does not receive the wastes
from industrial plants, and the Poto-

from Cumberland down to Washington.
The Maryland Sanitation Commission
Is working hard to correct this evil,
and the West Virginia authorities re-

Here in Washington practically moth

all Federal Government and District

badly polluted. In the Nations Capt.

sewerage of the city is dumped into
the Potomac this side of Alexandria
and floats back with each high tide

other waste products are being poured
into the Potomac around Washington

senger convertible coupes 70 the

NEW CHRYSLER
SIX OFFERED

The most important announce
ment Of the Chrysler Sales Cor
poration is the line Of entirely
new Chrysler Skies now being
shown by H. B. Leary, Jr. g. Bros.
Chrysler distributor. They are
styled like the Chrysler Fights
and carry out in the same fine
manner the distinctive lines and
performance characteristics Of
those companion cars.
Smartness, style, speed, and
performance are the keynotes of
design. The engineers have pro
duced an extremely graceful car
in the size. length, and lowness
by combining and unifying the
body design with that of the
double-drop frame. This new
frame successfully developed by
ChrySler engineers for the ChryS-
ler Eight permits the same low
center Of gravity and overall low
ness Of the new six.
Better Riding Noted
A more attractive appearance,
better balance, easier handling,
finer riding qualities, better road
ability, and greater safety even
at higher are natural result.
The new Chrysler six carries
the distinctive, slanting V-type
radiator. Wheelbase is 116 inches,
overall length, 1757s inches and
height, 81 inches. Hoods are
long and low. Bodies are of
safety all steel construction,
roomy, with maximum of clear
vision and insulated around the
cowl, dash and under the floor
coverings.
Four Body Styles
The new Chrysler six comes in
four body Styles-a four-door Sc
dan, coupe, convertible coupe and
roadster, on which five wire
wheels are standard.
Many outstanding mechanical
features contribute to the per-
formance. The engine is of the
high-compression type pioneered
by Chrysler engineers. The bore
and stroke is 3Ax43s inches with
a piston displacement Of 217.8
cubic inches, giving maximum
brake horsepower of 70. The
engine is suspended at four
points and rubber type lnountings
are used at both front and rear

NEW LA SALLE
!. MAKES DEBUT

T. A freshened and more beauti-
full Interpretation a today'c La
Sale car, adding to it's individual
slnartness new distinction,
makes its bow tc the public to-
day, on the showroom floor Of the
Kempton. Cadillac Corporation.
It's exterior appearance has
gained an attractive dignity
through the adoption of hood
ports, with ornamental wind
splits, similar to those on the
three Cadillac lines. The ports
replace the conventional narrow
louvres, and bestom a Modish
touch in its most modern inter
probation.
Greater richness and luxury is
effected in the new treatment Of
the interior. The most impressive
change has been effected in the
method of trimming, the smooth
custom style having been chosen
to replace the conventional
pleated upholstery. Three ma
terials of choice quality N five
different colors offer a pleasing
variety of upholstery options.
A richer effect also ras been
achieved through the substitution
OF walnut for black as tone
for the vanity cases.
AS extra contributions to COM
fort, body designers have elevated
the back of the front sea7 one
and half inches.

A search of police records here to-day, including photos in the rogues' gallery and finger prints in the spacious files of the detective bureau failed to show any evidence which would incriminate one Roy Sloane, 26, on any previous charges in this city. Sloane gained national publicity last week when he was one of four daring highwaymen who took part in holfup on Fifth ave- nue, New York. His pals escaped the police cordon thrown around a building in which the bandits sought refuge. Sloane fell into the hands of vigilant policeman and accord ing to a report received here this morning something like $30,000 in uncut diamonds was found in his possession. He was detained for in- vestigation.
 In some unexplained manner Sloane must have identified himself

 Captain William P. Keegan, chief inspector of the local detective bu- reau on receiving photo of Sloane and his finger prints checked up on his record, but failed to find any evidence, which wolud indicate that the young man had been arrested here on any previous occasion. It is believed that Sloane possibly to throw the police off the trail as to his right identity mentioned Water bury and started the metropolitan sleuths on the wrong trail.
 The arrest of Sloane following the spectacular robbery was one of the high lights of last weeks activities in New York police circles.

MARCH is the Danger Time for Pale Rundown Children

Children are very susceptible to disease in March. After fighting win ter's dangers, resistance is at a low ebb, vitality is lessened and they do not have the reserve strength to re- sist disease. Now is the time to build up health and strength. For over 75 years Father Johns Medi- cine has proved it's worth as body builder, as a tonic for weak run down children, as an aid to healthy vigor.
 This is because Father Johns Medicine brings, in combination with other valuable ingredients, all the benefits of cod liver oil in the form best suited to a growing child's needs. over 184 hospitals and in- stitutions use it regularly. Contains no drugs or alcohol. Following its use. pale half-sick children pick right up. Colds become few and far between. Weight is added, strength returns. All druggists have |.
