Gilbert Grosyenor. president Of the

Through the windows beams OF light

strange creatures OF the ocean

During Doctor Beebe's descents In
1890 and 1882 a number OF forms
OF sea life not known before were
discovered Many OF the strange
creatures were found to possess

In 1894. Having been found, the
next question Is, how to get them
back where they belong. The cost
is estimated at $500 and just at the
moment. though this city spends
$2.0O0,O0O day. there isn't any
$500 available. Also the new plan

discussing the origin OF the word

He was hooted down because those
symbols spell CH0CH0 when the
numerals are omitted. Finally

marked that everybody, Including
the chemical adherent, was quite
wrong. Hooch, he said, came from

700 Riot in R. !. Mill;
20 Pickets Injured

SAYLESVILLE, r. l., Sept. 3
Q.N.SO.-Violence broke out anew
in the New England textile strike
here early today when TOO strikers
from nearby towns engaged in a
spectacular battle with IS depu-
ties guarding the dyeing and
bleaching works of the SayleS
Finishing Company.
No shots were fired but twenty
picketS were injured, none seri-
ously, when clubbed by the depu'
ties.
State troopers finally restored
order at 1890 a. M, driving the
deputies back into the mill and
dispensing the pickets. No arrests
were made and none of the
dubbed workers was injured seri.
ously enough to require hospital
attention.
The workers at the Sayles plant
are not on strike, but as many as
1000 workers surrounding towns
have been picketing the mill.
Shortly before midnight, IS men
employees began leaving the plant,
when the shifts changed.
Deputy Herman Faster, chief of
the mill guards, led the way and
waving his gun, shouted to the
pickets:
''You see this? Well, you're
going to get it if any trouble
starts"
A few seconds later the riot was
on. According to one account, it
was precipitated when deputy
Paster dubbed a 15-year-old boy
who jeered at him. According to
another version, pickets started
fighting.
The riot was the second here
within a few hours. Late yesterday
deputy sheriffs dispersed a crowd
Of nearly 1000 pickets.
The Washington times., 1934-09-08

Major Ernest w. Brown, Super
intendent of police, today sent out
questionnaires to police chiefs
of cities comparable to Washing
ton in size for information to sup
port the cease" of the local depart
ment in its request for more men.
The total number of men on
duty in the Police Department is
1902, and Major Brown in his an
nual estimate recommended the
addition of 1876 men. The total
number of policemen on duty, Ma
jor Brown pointed out, is mislead-
ing to the public, as of this group
only 433 policemen are assigned to
foot duty over a 24-hour period.
14O On Foot Beats
Divided over eight-hour shifts,
approximately 140 men patrol the
foot beats. More than 800 men are
off each day on annual leave, day
off, and sick leave, and an addi-
tional 1852 men are assigned to
duty as clerks or on special duty.
There are 1875 men assigned to
automobile patrol and 43 on mo-
torcycle duty over a 24-hour Pc
riod.
Major Brown stated that al
though his annual estimate asked
