LARGE OYSTER SUPPLY
REACHES WASHINGTON

An abundance of salt water oysters
is now on hand at the Eleventh street
wharves, thanks to the recent thaws
which cleared the Potomac of ice and
enabled the oyster fleet from the
Eastern Shore of Maryland to make
its way to the Washington market.
Capt. Shafter Evans of Crisfield,
Md, brought the first oyster boat in
last week and since that time almost
a score of others have docked here.
While the waters to the south of
Washington were ice-locked for more
than a month, oysters were brought
by truck and prices rose to $3.50
bushel.
With large, fresh supplies now avail
able, however, the price has dropped
to SIPS, and even 81 bushel. Oys-
ter men OF the Eastern and Western
Shores were enthusiastic in their
praise Of the aid rendered them by
three Coast Guard boats which came
up from Norfolk and plowed channels
into the harbors to free the ice
locked craft of the fishing fleet.

MAYAN FABRICS
TO Be EXHIBITED
Smithsonian Experts Say
Ancient Race Is Still
Very Much Alive.

The Mayas, who built in Yucatan
and Guatemala one Of the greatest Of
the worlds ancient civilizations, which
was tottering when the Spanish con-
querors came, are by no means an
extinct people. &
Both the race itself and its strange
culture-except for the striking archi-
tecture-are still very much alive. The
Smithsonian Institution has Just
placed on exhit ition neo-Maya fab
RIGS and artifacts of present-day man
ufacture which do not differ essen
TALLY from those Of 500 years ago.
This exhibit will be formally opened
tomorrow.
Met by Columbus.
Christopher Columbus, on his fourth
voyage, met a Maya trading ship of
the Honduran coast loaded with fab
RIGS Of this sort, but it only confirmed
the great navigator's erroneous con-
viction that he had reached the East
Indies.
The present-day Mayas live in the
Guatemalan highlands. They speak
IIlelT IldLlVe languages anu IctdlIl q
good deal of their old religion, which
has been mixed, sometimes quite
curiously, with Christian practices.
From the nature of their artifacts,
Smithsonian experts point out, this
phase of their culture has deterio-
rated very little during the long CEN
turies since the days Of their great
ness. There is gold fligree work which
would be creditable to the finest
European goldsmiths of any age.
Hand Looms in Use.
They still weave cotton fabrics on
the old-Style Maya hand looms, with
beautiful intermixtures of colors In
elaborate designs They dye their
yarns, as did their Maya ancestors,
with vegetable dyes. Prominent is
the design Of the quetzal, sacred bird
of Guatemala.

the most complete collection of Guate-
malan ethnology in the world, was

F0XHAtL BUS LINE
SERVICE ASSA|LED
Report to Be Sent to Public
Utilities Unit by Citizens
Association.

Inadequate" service in "decrepit"
busses at a lO-cent fare on the Fox
hall Village bus line was assailed in q
report presented to the Public Utilities
Commission late yesterday by the
FoXhall Village Citizens Association.
The report, written by Edwin c.
Reed, vice chairman of the associa-
tion's Public Utilities Comm ttee, for
mally requested:
l. Elimination of the small, decrepit
buses now operated on the line;
?. Allowance of the same rate of
fare as in force on the Glover Park
route which it overlapS in part;
g. More frequent service, especially
between 7:30 and 9 am and between
4:30 and $50 pm.
4. Continuation of the Foxhall
Village route at least as far as Tenth
and E streets, and
5. Correction of the parking abuses
in and K streets which hamper the
operation of the buses.
Reviews History of Service.
Mr.. Reed read his report to the full
meeting of the FoXhall Village C,ti-
zens' Association last night and was
given the commendation of his fellow
members.
In the report. Mr.. Reed reviewed
the history of the bus service to Fox
hall Village and cited specific in
stances of its poor service. Presenting
Foxhall Villagers complaints cate
gorically, the report asserted that the
company still uses on this line small
busses originally used for the shuttle
service once provided between the
village and the 'Burleith-Glover Park
line. These vehicles, it was asserted,
frequently break down, resulting in
irritating delays.
The straight 10-cent fare was estab-
lished when the bus line, 8 or 10
years ago, was a dependent feeder
line, and still is charged, Mr.. Reed
pointed out, even though traffic on
the line is so great that buSSeS are
overcrowded and often pass up
patrons at stops. Passengers using
the more commodious busses in the
Glover Park area, the report con-
tinued, have fare rate of six tickets
for so cents.
Inadequacy Charged.
The hourly service in non-rush
hours works a handicap on village
residents, Mr. Reed said He argued
that if all Dusses to Burleith would
be rerouted so that from that point
they would alternate between Foxhall
Village and Burleith. and the same
rate of fare put into force, the village
line would show equal returns with
the park run.
During the rush hours, Mr.. Reed
continued, the service is Just as in
adequate 1t is an almost daily oc-
currence that the busses between 8
and $50 am. pass up passengers at
Hoban road and at Forty-fourth street
on the Reservoir read run of the
route, he said.
The downtown terminus of the line.
at Thirteenth and H streets, Mr.. Reed
contended is unfair to the Foxhall
Village patrons of the company. The
bus line fails to penetrate the shop
ping and theater district, he asserted

MOVE TO END WAR
IN CHACO GIVEN UP
League of Nations Conciliators
Find Paraguay and Bolivia
"Irreconciliable."
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
BUENOS AIRES. March 14-League
of Nations conciliators, finding Para
quay and Bolivia ''irreconcilable," have
abandoned an attempt to stop the
jungle strife in the Gran Chaco bor-
der area.
The League commission, which has
sought for months to settle the age
old dispute, announced yesterday it
had ended its efforts. The members
said they planned to leave for Geneva
Immediately.
For more than two years a bitter
struggle has ragged over the Gran
Chaco, decimating the man power of
landlocked Bolivia and hemmed-in
Paraguay. Peace efforts launched
first in Washington. then in Buenos
Aires and Rio de Janeiro and finally
in Washington failed.
Formula after formula to conciliate
the belligerents was tried. The League
conceived a plan to send a commits
sion of conciliation, headed by Julio
Alvarez Del Vayo, noted journalist
and member of the Spanish republic
an government. The commission went
to the jungle, over whose marshy
