A. F. Of |. PLEA

Although it wasn't Friday, 13
proved to be an unlucky number
today for a group of Federal
employees, who had a suit for in
junction pending in District Su-
preme Court. There happened
to be $4,000 other Federal en-
ployes against them-and so far
as the court could see $4,000
Federal employees can't be wrong.
The suit was field by 13 mem
bers of the National Federation
of Federal Employees, asking that
that organization be enjoined from
withdrawing from the American
Federation of Labor.
The court asserted that the in
junction asked for might cause
greater injury to the $4,000. if
granted, than denial will cause

RAILWAY PLANS
RIVAL FERRY
ACROSS BAY
U. S. Supreme Court Decision
Refuses Appeal of An
napoIiS Company

Another ferry service across
the Chesapeake Bay may be in
operation by July or August,
according to Eugene Fox, ex-
ecutive vice president of the
Chesapeake Beach Railway
Company.
His statement came today fol-
lowing the United States Supreme
Courts opinion yesterday refusing
to grant the appeal of the Clai-
borne-Annapolis Ferry Company
to prevent the railway from estab-
fishing ferry service.
Back in 1929 the railway COM
pany was given permission by the
Interstate Commerce Commission
to establish a ferry line connect
ing it's terminal at Chesapeake
Beach with Hudson, on Tripp'S
Bay, near Claiborne, Md. The
Claiborne-Annapolis Company ap-
pealed on the ground that the
Commerce Commission had no
jurisdiction in the matter.
Promised Better Service
B. Frank Sherman, general
manager of the Claiborne-A -Annapo-
lis Company, when notified that
his company had lost its appeal,
said it would continue to operate
just as it has for the last several
years and will endeavor to give
customers even better service in
the near future.
He said his company is now
planning to build a larger ferry
boat than any of the three now
in use.
Fox said his company has not
decided whether to purchase
ferry boats or build new ones.
He said that matter shortly will
be decided as they plan to begin
operations in July or August.
Make Trip in Hour
He said the trip across the
Bay from Chesapeake Beach to
Hudson will take an hour.
The company will have two
boats in operation, making six
daily round trips each during
the summer, Mr.. Fox said, add
ing that the boats will also
carry automobiles.
Final settlement of the contro-
versy between the two companies
is expected to increase real estate
values on land owned by Wash
ingtonians in proximity to the
Chesapeake Beach ferry terminus.

DEPLORED

Expressing the opinion that
what gangsters needed was stricter
home or school training when
they were children, Miss Florence
Hale, president of the National
Education Association, declared
last night that education is not
taking its proper place as a pre-
ventive and cure of the crime
situation.
Another thing she deplored, in
addressing the Education Associa-
ton of the District, was what she
called apathy and passiveness in
the face of wholesale cutting of
educational appropriations.
This has brought the most
critical situation education has
yet faced, she insisted, and
teachers must rise and maintain
the prestige and Importance of
education to prevent unWiSe
economy, she added.
Miss Dorothy Cook, teacher at
Bunchanan School, reporting on
survey among fifth and sixth
grade pupils, said Sc per cent of
the pupils attend motion pictures
of doubtful or unfavorable nature.
Other speakers were Miss A. G..
Lind, principal of Johnson-Ban-
croft School, and Mrs. Margaret

5 TAXI DRIVERS
CRAB BANDIT
IN CHASE
EIzear J. HoWdy, Suspected in
Shipping, RobS Coffee Shop,
FIees in Two Autos

A chase on Pennsylvania
Avenue early today resulted
in the capture of a lone bandit
who robbed a restaurant and
a Northeast drug store. The
man gave the name of Elzear
John Howder, %, of no local
address.
He fits the general description
of the mysterious sniper and will
be looked over by witnesses of the
sniper's activities.
Howder walked into the Rose
Coffee Shop at 731 Thirteenth
st. N. w., held up Peter Vlachos,
manager, and forced him to give
up $41.5O.
Switches TaxicabS
AS the man fled from the store,
he Communicated the taxicab of
Harold P. Admire, of 1882 1 st.
N. W., and forced him to drive TO
Fourteenth Street and New York
Avenue, where he switched to the
taxicab of Morris Goodman, Of
1017 K st. N. w.
Five cab drivers who saw the
hold-up gave chase and at Eight
eenth Street and Pennsylvania
Avenue were able to block off
Goodman's cab. The man jumped
from the vehicle and attempted to
escape but the taXicab men cap
tured him.
He was overpoWered and taken
to Emergency Hospital, where a
slight head cut received in the
melee was treated. A revolver
was found on him, but he did not
attempt to use it.
Robbed Store and Driver
DR.. Harry E. Minor, a druggist
at Eighth and East Capitol
Streets, identified Howder as the
man who earlier in the evening
had walked into his store, pro-
duced a revolver. and forced him
to surrender $40. three pintS of
whisky, two pints of rum, and a
quantity of cigarettes.
He is also thought to be the
man who commandeered the taxi
cab of Walter jackson, Colored, of
1923 Fifth st. S. E., and forced
him to drive to Eighth and L
Streets northeast, where he rob-
bed him of 81 and then ordered
him to drive on.
At Tenth Street and Florida
Avenue northeast, Jackson jumped
from the cab and it careened into
a house at 1895 Tenth Street
northeast. The cab was badly
damaged, but the bandit, appar-
emily uninjured, managed to ex-
tricate himself and fled, pursued
by residents.
