SERVICE
JUGGLES JOBS

Reallocations in the civil SER
vice will be carried on as usual,
the Civil Service Commission an
nounced today, in spite of pro-
visions both in the Independent
Offices appropriations act and the
District of Columbia appropria-
ton act to the effect that salaries
are not to be increased as a result
of such reallocations.
The legal provision is that no
part of any appropriations shall
be used to pay salary increases to
any officer or employe of the
United States by reason of real
location of his position to higher
grade by the personnel classifica-
ton board or the commission, and
that salaries paid accordingly
shall be payment in full.
Twice this provision was
knocked out of bills before it was
ultimately adopted, but it is now
in effect throughout the Federal
service.
Under the Classification Act,
it is the duty of the Commission
to allocate positions properly to
the various grades defined in that
act. The appropriation acts do
not relieve the commission OF
this responsibility.

SAN JOSE, Cal, Aug. II ON.
SO.-The sensational story of d
Pasadena, (CalD, man that a
negro itinerant killed pretty Mrs.
Allene Thorpe Lamson in her
Stanford University campus bun
galow was echoed here today.
Joseph Begley, train crossing
watchman stationed a few miles
from the campus, told Sheriff
William J. Emig that a negro had
confessed the murder to him.
While Bagley's story conceded
with that of John P. Emmerson,
Pasadena, who wrote a letter to
authorities here stating a negro
itinerant appeared at a hobo
Jungle" near Menlo Park and
Dragged" that he had bumped
off" a woman, Sheriff Emig scored
the train watchman's story as

Z POLICE FREED
Of ASSAULT
CHARGES
Directed Verdicted, Not Guilty,
Ends "Third Degree" Case
Of Williams, Ashley

Policemen Charles c. Williams
and Frank Ashley, Second pre-
cinct, who were accused Of assault
on George Mahony, 10, colored
prisoner, were freed by a directed
verdict of not guilty in Police
Court today.
Judge Isaac R. Hit instructed
the jury to acquit the policemen
after E. Russell Kelly, defense
counsel, argued that discrepancies
in testimony offered by govern
ment witnesses was such that the
evidence would not support a con-
viction.
The most glaring discrepancy
was in the testimony of Mahony,
who insisted the assault upon him
occurred August 9, while the war
rant charging the patrolmen with
the offense was issued the pre-
ceding day.
Other government witnesses tes-
titled variously that the assault
occurred August 6, August 7 and
August 8.

in the hands of Turner Battle and

lieve should be given Federal ap-
proval the committee will make

For the first time in so years
a Republican is conceded an even
chance in an Alexandria city
election.
Frederick L. Flynn, Republican
nominee for the office of civil
and police justice, is making a
most vigorous campaign and
claims that with the support he
will get in the Sixth ward, which

he will defeat Fred G. Duvall,
the Democratic candidate.
Flynn claims the support of
many Democratic voters who did
not go into the last primary.

DOCTOR WARNS
PARENTS

Warning that babies in this
climate need especially careful
attention in summer and that
the we'll known summer com.
plant" usually comes late in sum-
mer and is a serious illness, DR..
v. L. Ellicott health officer for
Montgomery county, today issued
a set OF rules to combat it.
Babies should not be weaned
until cold weather comes, he said.
If the baby is fed from the bot
tie, it is imperative that a clean
milk supply be had. In the event
this can not be obtained, evapo-
rated milk should be used.
On hot days little clothing
should be worn by the baby, but
an extra garment or cover should
be at hand in case it turns cold.

BEER SALE BAN
BRINGS SUIT

Another phase Of the Districts
beer regulations was scheduled for
testing today when William A.
Rowe, 800 block Tenth Street
Northwest, petitioned District .Su-
preme Court for writ of man
damus to force the District Com
missioners and superintendent of
Licenses Wade H. Coombs to grant
him a permanent ION sale" permit.
Justice Daniel w. O'Donoghue,
at the request of Rowe's counsel,
Conrad and Sam Syme, fixed Sep
tember as a date when the city
heads must show cause why the
writ should not be issued.
Rowe informed the court he
was granted a temporary permit
on April 10, and then spent $500
in making his place Of business
attractive. After spending this
amount, Rowe stated he received
q letter July 25 from Daniel E..
Garges, secretary to the Com
missionerS, stating his permit was
cancelled because his place of
business was within 200 feet of a
school.
The premises, Rowe stated, are
within 200 feet of the Webster
School. He contends this insti-
tuition is not within the contem-
plation of the law since it is used
merely for teaching the English
language to aliens. He declared
the school has an enrolment of
400 students. 370 of whom are 18
years or older and only 10 are
under Is.

POLLARD SEEKS
VOTE OCT. 8
ON REPEAL
Wants 3.2 LegaIized to Pro-
vide Revenue: Suggests De-
Eay on Liquor Problem

RICHMOND, Aug. 1.-THE Vir-
ginia General Assembly convened
in special session here today to
pass a State beer law and act on
repeal of the Eighteenth Amend
ment.
Governor John Garland Pollard,
who called the session on the
application of two-thirds of the
members of both houses, presided
and was deluged with congratula-
tions on his recent marriage to
Miss Violet Elizabeth McDougall.
Declaring he is a prohibitionist,
but not so dry as to want prohi-
bition against the will of the peo-
pie, the Governor suggested that
an election be held October to
elect delegates to a constitutional
convention.
Serve without Pay
The convention is to consist Of
not less than nine members nor
more than 80 and they are to
serve without pay. Under the
plan the convention will meet in
Richmond on Wednesday, Octo-
; ber Is, to cast formally Virginia's
vote on the question of repeal.
The Governor asked that
beer bill be drawn up at once to
provide for sale Of the 80 bever-
age in order that revenue may be
obtained by the State. The bill
suggested closely follows regula-
tons in other States.
Governor Pollard asked the as,
0embly to name at once a State
liquor commission to study the
matter and refer it to the regular
session which meets January 10.
Study Called Proper
Pointing out that the new legis-
lators, to be elected next Novem-
ber, will come into office with the
liquor problem as one of the chief
points in the campaign, the gov
ernor declared that it is only
proper that no legislation be made
at this time but that the commits
sion study the facts and report to
the next session.
The tax commissioner has given
an opinion that liquor control
act will net the State $1,00O,000 in
the last half of the present fiscal
year. from January l to July l.
A Statewide referendum should
be held on the matter of repeal Of
the State dry act, the governor
holds.
Governor Pollard also is said
to be considering asking adop-
ton of special sales tax.
According to sources close to the
governor he believes the sales
tax and beer would balance the
State budget.
The senate and house Of dele
gates probably will pass a liquor
control bill at this session to re-
place other State prohibition
laws. This bill, now being drafted,
will provide for the sale of ardent
spirits under license in unbroken
packages.
