K|WAN|S SAVES
HOSPITAL PAPER.

Heard and Seem" the monthly
magazine published by the pa
tients at the tuberculosis Hos
pital, has at last surmounted the
difficulties which it has been en-
countering for the last few
months.
The magazine was started a
short time ago to give the pa
tients at the hospital information
on their fellows and hints for re-
covery. But about a month ago
the editor recovered, left the hos
pital and deserted the magazine.
Then the patients ran into
financial difficulties with the
little pamphlet and it looked as
though it would have to be dis
continued.
But today the Kiwanis Club
stepped into the picture and
averted the "cease publication
order. Edwin S. Hill, president
of the club and Stephen H.
Takes, chairman of the institu-
tional entertainment committee,
realizing the good word of Heard
and Seen," announced today that
the club hereafter will provide
funds necessary to mimeograph
the magazine.

NONSENSE
Elliott, MCCarI Aide, Cites
Building Legislation; Quiz
to Shift to Chicago

1t is nonsense and a waste
of time" that a committee of
Congress is investigating the
operation of lunchrooms and
cafeterias in Government build
ings in Washington and else
where, former Representative
Richard N. Elliott, now as
sistant comptroller general,
said today.
For six years former Repre-
sentative Elliott (RO of Indiana,
was chairman of the House Com
mittee on Public Buildings and
Grounds.
Welfare Project
Referring to the recent activi.
ties of the Shannon investigating
committee of the House, Elliott
said today:
"When building legislation
was before the committee and
Congress it was well understood
Wy OH VI U.s. OC1AUCEdCS anu
Republicans alike, that the
plans and limit of cost for
these Government structures
would include space for cafe
teriaS. They are not costing the
Government or the taxpayers
anything. Their operation is
by a Welfare Association or
groups of clerks"
Representative Joseph B. Shan
non CD of Missouri. chairman
of the House committee investi-
eating "the competition of the
Government with private bust
ness" said the next meeting of his
committee would be in Chicago
November IA, just after the cleo
ton.
The United States Chamber Of
Commerce, which is supporting the
inquiry, will round up numerous
witnesses for the Chicago hear
ings, Shannon said. There are to
be further hearings in Washing
ton.

Virginia authorities are to-
day investigating two automo-
bile crashes on the Washing
Richmond Highway yester-
day in which a 26-year-old
girl was burned to death on
the eve of her wedding and
a 3-year-old child was killed.
Miss Gertrude Sass, of South
Ozone Park, N. Y, and John Brod-
erick, jr., of Quantico, Va, were
the victims.
Miss Sass was burned to death
when the car of her fiance, C. w.
Engle, of the U. S. S. Idaho, and
that of Anton Hoeffner, of Rose
dale, N. Y, collided head-on. She
was pinned under the steering
wheel as the car turned over. An
explosion followed and the ma
chine was enveloped in flames,
making it impossible to rescue
Miss Sass.
Engle, who is a sail maker, Sec
ond class, suffered several broken
ribs. He is at Quantico Marine
Hospital. He and Miss Sass
planned to be married today.

HIS ARM BROKEN
BYPOL|CENAN,
MAN CHARGES
Prisoners Accusation Brings
Inquiry in Court BY
Prosecutors Aide

A charge of Charles Young,
25, Of the 400 block Pennsyl-
vania Ave. N. w., that a police
man broke his arm after he
was arrested and taken to the
First precinct on a charge of
drunkenness, led to an investi-
cation today by Assistant Dis
trict Attorney w. NJ. Shea in
Police Court.
Shea initiated the inquiry at
the request of Capt. w. E. Holmes
of the First precinct.
"NipperS" Used, Charge
Young, who was arrested on
lower Pennsylvania Avenue, is
said to have declared the police
man broke his arm by forcing a
pair of steel "nippers," of a type
used to subdue unruly prisoners,
around his wrist. The prisoner
was said to have stated this &C.
CURED when he tried to give the
name John Doe as he was being
booked.
After he had complained that
his arm hurt, Young was taken
first to Casualty and then to
Gallinger Hospital for treatment
for a possible fracture. An x.
ray picture was being developed
at Gallinger today.
Stories Held Conflicting
According to Captain Holmes
statements obtained from another
prisoner and from policemen indi-
cate Young gave varied accounts
of how his arm was hurt. He
was said to have told a cellmate
he had been in a fight and, also,
that he had been in an accident.
The captain said Young claimed
to him that the fight was with a
policeman. Young was arrested
by Policeman Battles.
A witness before Shea today
was Policeman P. G. Withers,
patrol wagon driver, who was
said to have escorted the man
from the desk railing to his cell.
He denied using any violence.
Charge Unsupported
Another witness was Jasper c.
Oxford, arrested on a panhand-
ling charge. oxford told Shea
Young gave him different YER
sions of how de received his
injury.
Oxford's personal bond on the
panhandling charge was taken
later CT by Judge Ralph Given.
Shea refused to support Young's
charges, saying that the man
gave different versions Of the
injury and, also, that Young was
willing to drop the matter.

Bonus Plot

Thanks to an aged colored
woman who refused to give
her name to the police, Willie
DoWd, colored, is en- route to
Dillon, S. c., with $700 which
he got as bonus money on
Saturday.
Dowd, who left Dillon only
once before when he went to
France to fight during the
World War. was told by two
colored men of his home town
last week that he was entitled
to a bonus. They accompanied
him to Washington and after
he got the $70O Saturday, told
him they would show him the
sights. Dowd, however, put his
money in the care of the
colored woman whom he had
met.
Later she notified police of
the Second precinct that a
plot was being Matched to rob
Dowd and turned the money
over to the police. They in
turn found Dowd, gave him his
money, and placed him on a
train bound for Dillon.

D. {. MAY JOIN
RESCUE DRIVE

Traffic Director William A.
Van Duzer was authorized today
to study the ACCESSIBILITY of the
District joining with Maryland
and Virginia in a "save a life''
campaign, which has proven
popular in a number of other
states.
Plans of the campaign were
discussed at conference be-
tween a representative of the
Maryland traffic directors office,
Director Van Duzer and Mai.
Gen. Herbert B. Crosby, police
commissioner. Decision as to
whether the District will join the
movement will not be taken
until after recommendations to
be made by Director Van Duzer
are considered at a meeting of
the Commissioners.
General Crosby said that the
campaign entails authorization of
private garages to inspect auto
mobiles to insure their safe
operating conditions.
Municipal inspectors, he said,
would be detailed to check over
the garage inspections. When a
car is found to be in safe con.
dition, sticker would be given
the driver to paste on his wind
shield.
In the event an automobile is
not inspected during a year, Gen
eral Crosby said, the plan calls
for withholding license plates
