SALE ROW
ENDS IN SUIT

Is 30 minutes too long to wait
for a payment on an automobile
purchased on the installment
plan?
This question was put to the
District Supreme Court today in
a suit filed by Mrs. Claudia Hew-
lette, 1900 block New York Ave.
N. w., against M. L. Beckner,
trading as the Central Motor
Sales Co., 1900 block Fourteenth
st. N. w.
Through Attorney Albert A.
Stern, the woman informed the
court she purchased a car from
the defendant July 6 for $315-a
down payment of $75 and SIS per
week. She had the car five weeks
and fell IS behind in payments.
The defendants agent called for
the payments due and her agent
produced IS and requested a half
hour wait until he got the other
$5. Thirty minutes later, the suit
recited, the plaintiffs agent re-
turned with the necessary SO, but
the car had been "snatched."
Declaring the defendant now
refuses to surrender the car, the
plaintiff asked the court to COM
pei him to accept payments now
due and turn the car over to her.
She also asked the court to enjoin
the defendant from selling, rent
ing or disposing Of the car.

ESCAPES
WITH '4-BI7S"

Three graduate nurses who
went to bed in their apartment
in the 800 block Seventeenth st.
N. W.. last night with the door
unlocked, awoke to find a colored
intruder in the middle of their
bedroom about midnight.
Miss Mary Evans told Third
Precinct police she awoke to find
the man standing in the middle
of the room. She screamed and
the man grabbed her purse, con
tanning so cents and fled through
the door.
Miss Evans and her roommates,
Miss Amy Richardson and Miss
lila Richardson, told police they
believe the burglar was the same
colored man they saw standing
in front of the apartment when
they went home. Although police
searched the neighborhood for
some time they were unable to
find a trace of the man.

POLICE ACCUSE
z ACCUSERS

Tables were turned today by
the District Grand Jury upon
two colored men, who recently
accused two Third precinct de-
tectives of giving them the
third degree"
The detectives accusers, Ray
mond Pearson and Thomas B.
Washington, were indicted joint
ly with Willie Simpson on a
charge of joy-riding and grand
larceny. The three, according to
the charge, were caught operat-
ing a stolen automobile.
The accusations of Washington
that he was beaten by Detectives
Joseph w. Shimon and w. v.
Christian were aired before the
Police Trial Board. A verdict
of acquittal was returned by the
board yesterday. After making
his accusations a few weeks ago,
Pearson declined to prosecute the
detectives either before the Police
Court or the trial board.

Budget Chief WithhoIds Any
Action on Gas Tax Fund; the
Highway Unit Suffers

One hundred and 10 employees
of the District highway depart
ment today began an enforced
payless furlough of indefinite
length as the result of the re-
fusal of Lewis w. Douglas,
Director of the Bureau of the
Budget, to permit the District to
use the gasoline tax surplus given
it by Congress.
The 10 men include engineers,
rodmen, surveyors, laborers and
other workers. In addition to
these, 140 more men probably
will be dropped before the end
of the fiscal year if Douglas per-
sists in his refusal to let the local
government have it's money.
These men will be let out a few
at time.
Works Fund Settled
The gasoline tax surplus,
arounting to $1,500,000, was al
lotted to the District in the 1884
appropriation act, with the pro-
viso that it's expenditure must be
sanctioned by Douglas. OF the
fund $575,O00 was to be used to
begin work on the Calvert Street
Bridge, $4,000 for repairs to
Constitution Avenue and the rest
for general improvements, con-
struction and maintenance.
Douglas, however, has refused
to permit expenditure of any Of
the money, giving as his reason
that he wished to wait until he
found what the District would re-
ceive from public works funds.
That point is now settled, the
local government having been al
lotted $1,918,000 from this fund.
Water Tax Fund
In addition to the gasoline tax
surplus fund, Congress gave the
District $5O2,OOO from the water
tax surplus, to be used in repairs
and replacement of water meters.
Douglas has not released the
water tax fund and repair work
in that department is practically
at a Standstill. In addition to
stopping the work, lack of funds
forced the dismissal of 446 men
from the Water Department,

POLICE QU|ZZED
ON GUN THEFT

Hearing of charges against De-
tective Sergeant Clyde o. Rouse,
accused of taking pistol from
the property room at police head
quarters and giving it to a man
who later turned it over to an
other man who became involved
in a gang shooting, began today
before the police trial board.
The hearing started shortly be-
fore noon and Rouse's superiors.
Inspector Frank S. w. Burke and
Captain B. w. Thompson, of the
detective bureau, were character
witnesses for him.
Rouse is accused of giving the
gun to Louis Levin, 10, of the
28OO block Thirty third st. S. E.
Later it was obtained by one Of
the men involved in a gun battle
about three weeks ago at Eigh-
teenth and K Streets Northwest,
between rival groups of racke-
teers. The weapon was found
near the scene of the battle.
Rouse, member of the cloth
ing squad, has been on the police
force nine years.

row for Ella M. Schrodt, former
actress, who was battered to
death in a Brentwood, Md, bun
galow where she had lived for
eight years with her common-law
husband, John C. Mulligan.
And from his cell in the Hyatts-
vile Jail, where he is held on
charge of numbering the woman
he loved, Mulligan, collector for
an F. Street jewelry company,
today voiced a plea that he be
allowed to attend the woman'S
funeral.
Arranged Funeral
Mulligan, who denies that he
had any part in the killing, made
arrangements for the funeral
from his prison cell today.
The final rites will be held in
the Gasch Undertaking ParlorS
in Hyattsville where the body
with the skull crushed over the
left eye by a blunt instrument
was taken yesterday and an au-
topsy held.
Authorities have not yet de-
cided whether they will allow
Mulligan to see the woman and
attend the rites. If he does it
will be under police guard.
Defense Planned
Meanwhile a defense against
the charge was being mapped out
by j. Wilson Ryan and Albert
Hassell, attorneys employed by
Mulligan.
The murder house is just on the
border line of Brentwood and Mt.
Rainier. Chief of Police Plummer,
of Mt. Rainier, has been handling
the investigation of the case. Last
night Detective Sergeant William
Feehly, star member OF the Balti-

into the case to assist the local
authorities.

US. CONTRACTS
HOLD DESPITE
HIGHER COST
Awards Must Be Completed
In Face of NRA Changes,
Gen. MCCarI Rules

Business men who have con-
tracts with the Federal Govern
ment will have to complete them,
regardless of any increased costs
that may result from operation OF
the National Industrial Recovery
Act, Comptroller General J. R.
McCarl ruled today.
Inasmuch as President Roose-
velt has indicated the desirability
of readjusting contracts between
business houses on the basis of in
creased costs due to the MIRA, the
opinion was expressed by promi-
nent Government officials today
that Congress probably would rec
tify the situation. In the mean
time, however, n o t hing g can be
done about it.
President Interested
It was said that the condition
was known to the President, and
that he was much interested in an
equitable solution.
McCarl's ruling merely points
out that no existing law gives the
contractor any redress in the pres
ent instance. His ruling deals
with the case of a Philadelphia
company, engaged in preparing
some white duck for the Atlanta
penitentiary, to be further worked
upon there and eventually used by
the War Department.
The case came to the Comp
troller General from the Attorney
General, who said that the War
Department contended that it had
no authority to pay any increased
costs above those specified in the
contract, in case it were expected
to recompense the penitentiary.
Costs Increased IS P. C.
The Philadelphia compan
agreed to do the work for 25s
cents a yard, but its costs were
increased 35 per cent, it said, by
the operations of the NRA.
McCarl ruled that the company
could not withdraw from its obli-
CATION to the Government except
by paying any excess cost that
might arise through it's default.

Colossal Courage

F. Scott Mcbride is really admirable. Scrutiniz-
ing the returns from Alabama and Arkansas, less
sturdy man might have wiped away tear and said,
"This is terrible" A foolish might have
said-but perhaps it is we'll not to speculate on
that. Mr.. Mcbride, general superintendent of the
Ant-Saoon League said all that was necessary: "The
vote in the two Sates like the vote in the other States
that have already voted the question: shows there is
great uprising the part of the people against the
Eighteenth Amendment" AS the pre-Hitler Germans
used to say, Kolossal!
There is probably reason for Postmaster General
Fareys exhortaons to Democrats to vote for repeal;
repeal as getting it part of the Democratic
partys pledge and offered to the nation at the
express request of a Democratic President Yet the
most obvious thing is that repeal is not party

The best thing for repeal now would be that State
like Alabama traditionaly dry should pass law max

each community to decide its fortune. The Fed

citizens of the country could gain little in intelligence
and self-respect.
