PROTESTS ON
LIQUOR

Members of civic organizations
from Capitol Heights, Md, will
march on the Prince Georges
County Board of License Commis-
sioners when they meet in Upper
Marlboro December 6, to protest
the recent crime wave caused by
drunken fights.
The group will attempt to have
several licenses revoked, it was
said.
Told that the board has author
ity to either cancel the licenses
or adopt restrictive hours Of sale,
the delegation will protest in an
attempt to further strengthen it's
campaign. Already the town coun-
Gil has adopted a / a. m. closing
hour, but the towns authority to
do so is being questioned.
The group, which will come
from a half dozen women's and
civic clubs who already have sent
resolutions to the liquor board,
will ask that the sale Of beer and
wine be prohibited from midnight
on Saturday until Monday morn
ing, and that the stores be re.
quired to close at midnight on
weekdays, to conincide with the
District laws.
They protest that many Wash
ingtonians come out to Capitol
Heights saloons" after District
dealers must close their doors for
the night.

World Of Music
Fritz KreisIer, Rare
Artist, to Play
Here Tuesday

One Of the worlds most versatile
artists, as we'll as one of the great
violiniStS of all time, will be heard
in recital here next Tuesday after.
noon when Fritz KreiSler steps on
the stage of Constitution Hall.
Kreisler is rare artist indeed.
A pianist of note, some critics
claim him better on that instru-
ment than on the violin.
He once seriously considered
giving up music for painting and,
at one time, his interest in medi.
cine was so intense that it threat
ened to extinguish his artistic
leanings.
Kreisler has q keen interest
for literature, and is one of the
greatest authorities on Eighteenth
Century manuscripts.
With only two months to
spend in America this year, and
about SO concerts to give, Kreis-
Ter uses the airplane when pos
Sible to complete his tour of the
country.
A former soldier, he has no
fear of the air. The only pre-
caution he takes is to carry only
one of his rare collection of
Stradivarius violins with him
when he flies.

ROAD FUNDS SHY.
FIVE MILLIONS,
SAYS R|TCH|E

More than one.fourth Of the
Maryland State Roads Commis-
sion's income for next year has
been spent already and the COM
mission had bills totalling $780,.
900 which it could not meet on
September 30, Governor Ritchie
revealed yesterday in his promised
statement Of the commissions
financial condition.
In addition, the governor said,
the counties had a total overdraft
of $726,081.11 September l and
three counties-Montgomery. Cal
vert and Kent-have overdrawn
to such an extent they will have
a deficit of $3.50, 900 even after
their 1885 allotmentS.
Net Deficit Five Million Dollars
The commissions net deficit to
date was placed at $4,9l4,41S.39.
Governor Ritchie declared he
did not know where to place the
blame, charging violation Of an
agreement at meeting May 2,
1884, that no more expenditures
should be made without approval
of the commissions chief auditor.
It was revealed later that E.
Brooke Lee, of Montgomery
county, resigned as chairman of
the commission on that date.
The governor added that he and
other State officials knew last
spring of the threatened shortage.
Economies Installed
Many obligations are not yet
payable and can be charged
against estimated revenues of
sic, 6,206,122 due by September 80,
1885, the Governor said. He con-
tinued:
"In order to restore its cash
position for current general
obligations, the commission has
instituted drastic economies
which will save during the win.
ter period approximately $751;.
600 q month.
"These economies, with the
large revenues receivable next
month, will enable the commits
sion to ray its bills and meet
its operating obligations"

CAR
ROBBERY CLUE

Maryland police rushed to Lau-

a car with Pennsylvania tags had
been abandoned on side road
near that town.
Police believe the machine may
be that used by outlaws who held
up a bank at Fairfield, Pa, day
before yesterday, escaping with
$3,700.
The informant told police the
car was abandoned last night by
two or three men who carried a
package with them.
A warning was broadcast to po-
lice here yesterday asking them to
look out for the robbers, who had
driven away toward Maryland fol.
lowing the bank holdup.
The robbers entered the First
National Bank in Fairfield Wednes-
day, locked the cashier and teller
in a vault and escaped with the
currency.
Police were unable to find any
trace of the owners or any evi-
dence to link the machine with
the Pennsylvania robbery.
A colored man told them he
helped two young white men
push the car up the side road.
They then started to walk to-
ward Washington, carrying a suit
