DECISION EXPECTED
.ON ARL|NGT0NL0AN
Officials in Quandary, How
ever, Over Continuance of
:. Present Survey. txz

BY a STAFF Correspondent Of The Star.
ARLINGTON COURT HOUSE, Va,
September 30.-A definite decision by
the Federal public works administra-
ton on Arlington County's application
for 81, 500, 900 for installation of sew
erage system is expected by local Of
ficials during the coming week, in ac-
cordance with inforamtion obtained at
N. r. A. headquarters.
Pending a decision Of the public
works administration, however, local
officials find themselves in peculiar
predicament as to the necessary funds
for the completion of the sewerage sur
vey which is now in progress.
Only $4,000 is Available.
The only money available under the
budget for the survey is the S25 GOO
contingent fund and already more than
$4,000 of this money has been used,
with its consumption being rapidly in
creased as the field and Office forces of
the sanitary department are increased
in size.
1t is hoped by the county board that
this fund will last at least until 1t
learns whether the money will be made
available for the sewerage system. Be-
tween that time and the time OF the
proposed election on the bond issue for
the project, however, the survey must
continue if work on the project is to
be gotten under way in time to furnish
relief during the coming Winter.
Has Two Alternatives.
The board is now faced with the
question of either discontinuing the sur
vey after the contingent fund is eX-
hausted or of borrowing the money with
which to continue the work. The first
alternative would cause serious de-
lay. it Is said. and the second would
place the board in the position of bor-
rowing money without definite assur-
ance that It could be repaid by Deceni-
Der Is. as required by law, without
seriously affecting the budget.
This matter was discussed at meet
ing of the county board yesterday and
it was finally decided to leave the mat
ter as it now stands until the board
receives a commitment from the public
works administration and then decide
what is to be done in the meantime.
1t is expected that the board VIII
continue the survey. however. since 1t
is confident that the bond issue Will
pass at the election.

Bearing a black-draped coffin marked

NOTES TOMORROW
| ON SUNDAY MOVIES
HyattsviIIe to Settle Issue
of Kidding Self of Old
Blue Law.

BY a Staff Correspondent of The Star.
HYATTSVILLE, Md. September 80.
Having been subjected to broadsides
of propaganda from opposing forces
during the past week, the voters OF
Hyattsville will settle the Sunday movie
question at special election tomorrow.
Although 1884 of the 100 local
voters signed a petition asking the
mayor and council to call the special
election. thus indicating there will be
little difficulty in putting across" the
Sunday movie ordinance. its advocates
are taking every precaution to get out
the vote.
Like the repeal advocates in the re-
cent special State election, the Sunday
movie champions fear their supporters
may become overconfident, conclude 1t is
unnecessary to bother about voting. and
thus give the Sunday closing hackers an
opportunity to defeat the ordinance.
Kept Issue Before Voters.
Through letters, posters and screen
presentations, the advocates of Sunday
movies have kept the issue before the
voters during the past week. Their
opponents have distributed literature
opposing Sunday movies in all the
churches and at the doorstep Of every
Hyattsville resident.
Sunday movie supporters have found
a powerful ally in organized labor.
Through its official organ. The Trade
Unionists,' the Maryland-District of
Columbia division of the American
Federation of Labor has urged organ
lied workers particularly to vote in
favor of this advance in the freedom
and fuller enjoyment of life"
&c nniotpl that c4 nm q
will be added to the pay envelopes of
employees of the moving picture thea
tiers if the ordinance is passed.
Sidney Lust. director of the local
theater, said the Exchange Club Of
Prince Georges County has already
asked for permission to hold a show on
Sunday for the benefit Of It's milk fund
If the ordinance passes. Lust prom
f, ised this would be arranged.
Literature Distributed.
Rev. B. P Robertson, leader of those
opposing the ordinance, has directed
! the distribution of the literature against
| it. This claims the ordinance would be
an opening wedge for all sorts of un-
desirable enterprises on Sunday. and
asks the voters to defeat it because
movies have a detrimental effect on
their children.
The first step to wipe Maryland's
ancient blue laws from the statute books
| was taken in 1881 when Baltimore
| voted to permit Sunday movies and
other amuSementS
This year the Legislature passed laws
permitting Sunday movies in Allegany
and Baltimore Counties. In some of
| the Southern Maryland counties movies
have been shown on Sunday for years
despite the Sunday closing laws, and
one of the arguments of those who
favor repeal of the Sunday closing laws
in Prince Georges County is that the
moving pictures are open just across
| the District line on Sunday. which
means loss of local revenues to local
! concerns.
! The Hyattsville ordinance will. If
passed, permit movies, concerts, thea
| trical performances and educational
/ lectures after pm. on Sundays. The
polls will be open from Z am. to pm.
On October 81 Mount Rainier will
vote on a similar ordinance.

Superior Judge Thomas Gould in psy-

gustedly at Frank @. Wickheiser, an
old-timer brought there to discredit his
claim
The elderly man was brought into
court On a complaint signed by Mrs.
Stella James, wife Of Jesse James, son
of the outlaw. to determine only if the
claimant were sane. The hearing over,
Judge Gould said:
You're sane but you are either a
great bandit or great liar, and think
you are mighty good imposter."
Mrs. James said the man knew all
the published facts of her family. but
with little intimate details he is not
familiar"
History records that Jesse James was
killed years ago. The man who was
in court had asked Mrs. James to aid
him to get pardon from the Governor

Another rule (section so makes it an
Cffense to use a horn otherwise than
as a reasonable warning, or to make
any unnecessary or unreasonably loud
or harsh sound by means of horn or
other warning device.
In 1880 there was study, apparently
quite intensive in scope, of the noises in
the city of New York. The findings of
the commission which looked into the
matter occupy an entire volume. One
interesting excerpt relating to radio
noises shows that a loud-speaker in
that city's Radio Row offended the
measuring instrument to the extent OF
79 decibels. which put it above the limit
of the roar of the Bengal tiger T5.5
decibelS) and only slightly below that
of the Siberian tiger, (79:5 decibels).
Police Whistles Silenced.
The report notes. apparently with ap-
proval. that on August 18 of that year
Commissioner Mulrooney silenced traf-
fic policemen's whistles" Otherwise,
however. the general tenor of the re-
port is that New York is very noisy and
that the noise is a nuisance.
The problem of noise seems to be at
tracing a wide attention today and
even the street car industry is spend
ing good hard money in the quest of
a solution. Street cars on rubber tires
have actually been developed, ard John
H. Hanna, who is president OF the
Capital Traction Co.. has rid e..
one of them and reports it veiy sat

Perhaps this was not the primary
intention, but the Federal Government
itself has taken hand. unwittingly

city dwellers out in the great open

broken only by the drowsy murmur of
the bees, the babbling Of the nearby
brook ION its way to the nearest hydro

tented lowing Of bos taurus in the

BALTIMORE, Md, September 3d.
An appeal to Maryland residents to join
in the observance of National Fire Pre-
vention Week, October to IA. was
voiced here today by c. Howard Whit
tie, of Baltimore, chairman of the Fire
Prevention and Inspection Committee of
the Maryland State Firemen's Associa-
ton.
Whittle directed his plea to colleges,
schools, civic and fraternal organiza-
tions, fire departments and private citi-
zens of the State to cooperate in the
movement and do their part to rid
Maryland of the red menace"
Volunteer and paid departments
throughout Maryland, he declared, will
be asked to lend their aid by conducting
fire prevention programs in the various
communities in which they operate and
particularly in the schools located in
their districts to educate the people
in prevention work.
Stresses Prevention Work.
StreSsing the Importance of fire pre-
vention work, Whittle said that statis-
tics recently compiled by fire officials
in every section of the country dis
closed that in recent years the average
loss of lives per year has been $4,000.
approximately 40 lives per day. while
the average property loss as the re-
suit of fires aggregates S500,000,000 a
year.
Such great losses he declared. "are
due. undoubtedly. to neglest and the lack
of necessary legislation to enforce fire
prevention" This. Whittle said throws
the burden of fire prevention work upon
private citizens and it is only through
their help that fire prevention can be
successfully accomplished.
Whittle said that renewed effort
is to be made to put a bill through
the State Legislature to enforce fire pre-
vention in Maryland and appealed to
members of the State Assembly to sup
port the measure when it is presented.
Would Lower Premiums
Such a bill, he declared. would do
great deal to lower the premiums on
fire insurance policies in the State and
would prevent great reductions in the
assessable basis of the State through
property loss.
Whittle announced that silver loV-
ing cup has been offered by Mayor
Howard w Jackson of Baltimore for
the fire company having the most i'm
pressive record for fire prevention this
year.
