DRUNK ARRESTS
UP IN VIRGINIA

RICHMOND, Va, June II.
There is no doubt that drinking
and drunkenness has increased
in Richmond since the State
liquor stores were opened here
the second week in May, accord.
ing to Mayor j. Fulmer Bright.
Mayor Bright said the number
of arrests for drunkenness in
the city was on the increase since
the State went into the liquor
business, but that he regarded
this experiment as too new to
indicate definitely a trend. He
added:
"But anybody who thinks that
furnishing liquor legally and
at moderate prices will not in
crease drinking, simply is blind
to the situation.
"In Richmond, there is no
doubt that, since the State
liquor stores opened, there has
been more drinking and more
drunkenness. The store ON the
Boulevard has remained open
until IL p. m. / know that we
have been called UPON fire.
Quently to send policemen to
that store to handle the traf-
fic."
Price reductions ranging from
5 to 10 cents a bottle on IL
brands of liquor have been made
by the Virginia Alcoholic Bever-
age Control Board, it was dis
closed in a new price list just
sent out. Mail orders hereafter
will have to be based on the new
list; otherwise, the checks or
money orders, will be returned.

PWA YEAR OLD
SATURDAY

Another Administration emer-
gency unit will celebrate its first
birthday anniversary soon.
A single candle will shine on
the cake of the Public Works
Administration Saturday. Last
week the first birthday Of the
Federal Emergency Relief Admin
istration was celebrated.
Secretary of Interior Ickes, the
PWA Administrator, said of the
administration unit today:
II don't think we realized
when we took over this job a
year ago what a tremendous
task we were undertaking. But
/ think we have done a good
Job, all told. We had no previ-
Gus experience to rely upon, no
organization, and the job we
had to do efficiently had to be
done at once.
"NOw after a years work, we
can get q pretty fair idea Of
where we're heading. AS see
it, there can be no doubt that
because of this program, the
nation will have a noteworthy
addition to its capital assets in
the form of municipal power
plants, sewers, waterwOrks, new
schools, roads, buildings and
the like"

SLAYER To GET
DEATH DELAY

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, June II
U.N.S0 The Clark County Cir
cult Court erred in sentencing Ed
Coffin, 81. of Greenfield, to die on
July 9, at the Indian State
Prison for Staying a police officer,
instead of allowing the usual 100
days of grace required under In
diana law before the carrying out
Of a death sentence, it was dis
covered here today.
Circuit Judge George C. Kopp
imposed the death sentence on
young Coffin on June 9 for the
Staying of Deputy Sheriff Harold
Amick at Scottsburg, Ind, June
4, Coffin also killed Policeman
John Pfaffenberger at Seymour
that same night,
In fixing the date of execution
for July 9 Judge Kopp allowed
Coffin only 80 days of grace.
Coffin already has been taken
to the State Prison at Michigan
City. It was believed that it would
be necessary for the Clark Circuit
Court to recall Coffin from the
death house and to reSentence
him.

A. j. DriscOll

president.
The movement received the
whole-hearted support of the Rev.
James w. Many, then pastor OF
the East washington Heights
Baptist Church, who offered the
facilities of the church as a
meeting place and who took an
active part prior to his retire
ment a few years ago. The meet
ings are still being held at the
church. Others active in organ
izing the association were the
late Hon. Caleb Powers and Mrs.
George w. Sisemoore, Major c.
A. Brode, Harry L. Burke, George
e. Eckendorf, Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles Foster, r.. Malth, James
A. Reed, Henry L. Grampp, Clln-
ton L. Scott and A. H. Sellman.
Service Invaluable
The association has rendered
invaluable service in building up
and obtaining modern suburban
betterments to q section that a
few years ago was entirely rural
and one of the least known OF
the National Capital. Its officers
realize, however, that civic work
must continue if further i'm
provements are to keep pace with
the fast growing section which
Is visualized as one of the most
desirable residential communities
within the city.
When the association wa
founded the streets and alleys
were unimproved and not graded,
There were no curbS and cutters.
no city sidewalks, no tranSporta'
ton facilities, no city mail de-
livery, no garbage or trash col.
lections. No sewer installations
had been made and no fire alarm
boxes had been installed. The
water supply system was made
quate, streets were without lights
and practically no police protec,
ton was afforded.
The establishment Of transpor.
tation service provided for an
hourly schedule with no service
whatsoever after 8 p. M, bus
patrons being required to pay two
fares in order to reach the down
town section with no shelter pro-
vided at the terminal. The as
ISOLATION secured a waiting room,
half-hourly bus service and a re-
ductlon to one fare.
Program Is Ambitious
Mr.. Malth, president, who is
now serving his third term, is
DESTROYS of securing installation
Of sewer facilities to accommo-
date the section south of Ala
bama Avenue, known as the
Oxon Run project, sewer for
Akron Place and on Branch
Avenue, along with the grading
and surfacing of streets recently
listed with the highway depart
ment, better lighting and other
improvements. It was through
his efforts that a community
center was recently opened in the
East Washington Heights High
School.
The territory of the associa-
ton is bounded on the east by
Pennsylvania Avenue, on the
south by the District line, on the
west by Naylor Road, and on the
north by Texas Avenue.
Present officers in addition to
Mr.. Malth are Charles Foster,
first vice president; Mrs. H. H.
Daniels, second vice president; O.
r. Smith, treasurer, and r. E.
Hickernell, secretary. Mr.. Malth
and Vernis Absher are delegates
to Federation of Citizens Associa-
tions.
Meetings are held at East
Washington Heights Baptis t
Church on the second Monday
in each month.
