PURSUER HURT
IN CHASE

Park Policeman Emmett Mast,
80, is in Emergency Hospital with
a broken arm and knee received
when an automobile he COM
mandeered to chase a hit-and-run
driver collided with a taxicab at
Nineteenth and M Streets North
west shortly before midnight.
A passenger in the cab, Theresa
Oliphant, colored, IA, 1900 block
New Jersey Ave. N. W., also re-
ceived a broken leg and was taken
to Emergency. Both drivers were
treated for less serious injuries.
Hamilton P. Underwood, 43, the
$500 block Legation St. N. w.,
drove the commandeered automo-
bile, and Ronnie Granger, 33, the
700 block Sixth st. N. W., drove
the taxicab. Policeman Mast, who
was standing on the running
board of Underwood's car, was
thrown several feet and knocked
unconscious.
The hit-and-run driver that
Mast was chasing left an acci-
dent at Dupont Circle, police
said. No serious damage or in
jury was reported from it.

STEEL ACTIVITY
DIPS IN WEEK

Steel ingot production for the
country at large declined this
week to shade under 19 per
cent of rated capacity, compared
with 20 per cent last week, ac-
cordlng to Iron Age.
The decline is attributed chiefly
to falling off in automobile
tonnage, which has been offset
only in part by an increase in
releases by the Ford Motor Co,
The flattening out of steel de-
mand was also aScribed to unset
tlement over a weak price situa-
tion.
The effect of smaller automo-
bile specifications was reported
most marked at Cleveland, where
the ingot rate has declined from
80 to 35 per cent.
The publication said the i'm.
mediate outlook for the steel in
dustry still is uncertain, owing
to lack of substantial volume Of
new building work, the almost
complete absence from the mar
ket of railroads and the indefi-
niteness of automobile schedules
after this month.

POWER OUTPUT
IS INCREASED

Electric power production for
the United States during the week
ending February 18 last continued

February II. the comparable de-
cline was 6.1 per cent.
The power figures for the past
week were issued today by the
so-called 'liquidating committee"
of the National Electric Light AS
sociation, the organization which
is being succeeded by the recent
ly formed Edison Electric Insti-
tute.
Production for the February 18
week totaled 1,469, ,732,CC0 kilo-
watt hours against 1892, 500, 900
in the week ended February IL.
For the corresponding week last

"Green Gang" Foreman

to provide a stretch Of German Winter
woodlands, bare trees struggling out Of
snow-sprinkled mud banks. Since most
OF Southern California's trees remain
green the year around, it was neces-
sary to use cut trees stripped of their
leaves and these we're fastened in place
firmly SO that their branches could be
tossed about against the bleak sky
line Of the studio wind machines.
In some ways this was a more difi-
cut job for the Green Gang than was
est for The Narrow Corner" the
screen dramatization of Somerset
Maugham's latest novel. In this pic
ture almost the entire supply OF trop-
ical verdure owned by the studio was
transplanted in the Los Angeles River
bottom. Rubber trees. magnolias and
philodendrons made up the bulk of
the Marrow Corner" tropics, and these
are grown in great numbers by Bower
and his men for just such purposes.
Boxed hedges and formal planting
reached their zenith in Green Gang
history IN the reproduction Of a part
picture, "Voltaire," in which George
Arliss is starred Much of this was
merely moved into place from the
studio nursery Other parts OF the
hedges were fabricated from cut wild
cherry branches-the Green Gangs
favorite substitute for living greenery.
The nursery department is a little
proud Of the fact that it can provide
green material at a moments notice
for sets depicting English, French.
Italian or New England gardens. and
Oriental. tropical, desert or jungle
landscapes. Some one of these is need
ed in practically every picture made
