White House Has Puzzle
MYSTERIOUS ROMAN BUST PROVES NEW PROBLEM.

The White House has an unknown
guest-a Roman-appearing gentleman
with pugnacious features and short,
thick, curly hair.
No one knows whence he came or
how he happened to enter the por-
tails of the Executive Mansion.
But from a niche 10 feet above the
floor he scowls down at all who enter
the famous state dining room.
The mysterious gentleman is done
in plaster. He has occupied the place
in the hallway leading to the state
dining room as far back as the oldest
employe of the White House can re-
member.
The bust has no title, neither does
1t bear the name of the sculptor, and
its presence in the White House has
become a battling puzzle.
More than one President at one
time or another has paused to glance
at the old Roman and inquire, Who's
that?" But no one has ever been able
to answer.
More than usual interest is being
manifested in the bust since the exec
utive Offices are in the White House
proper. pending remodeling of the
west wing. Persons moving about
the first floor of the mansion have
been peering up at the head and be-
sieging White House attaches with
questions. But no one has been found
who can give enlightenment and the
mystery is deepening.
Some have suggested the bust re-
sembles Nero, and while the counte-
nance does bear the appearance of
the famed fiddler, it is not thought
likely that such a character would

REVENUES ASKED
FOR TEACHER PAY
Prince Georges PIT. Group
to Urge Use of Liquor
Revenues.
By STAFF Correspondent of The Star.

By staff Correspondent Of The Star.
BLADENSBURG, Md, August IS.
Use of the fees received from liquor
licenses to help restore the salaries
of Prince Georges County school
teachers in September will be rec
commended TO the county commits
sioners on Tuesday by the County
Federation Of Parent Teacher Asso-
Citations.
Louis A. Day, president of the fed
Grafton, said the proposal was in
dorsed by the Executive Committee
of the organization when a study dis
closed that the minimum pay for
teachers now is only about A cents
an hour.
This, coupled with the 20 per cent
increase in the cost of living, makes
the county teachers compensation
entirely inadequate, federation off,
cials believe.
They estimate that about half of
the 10 per cent salary reduction i'm
posed on the teachers last year could
be restored with liquor license fees.
Revenue from the fees will total
about $4,000, it is reported. Last
Spring the Board of Education cal
culated about $4,000 would be
needed to restore the 10 per cent
teachers pay cuts.
While admitting the liquor license
fees of the county have not been
dedicated to any specific purpose, but
go into the general county fund,
Ormond w. Phair, president of the
County Board. pointed to two factors
which may prevent the commission
ers from approving the federation's
suggestion.
All or part Of the fees may be
needed to provide relief If and when
the Federal Government stops
financing the activities of the County
Welfare Board, Phair said, while the
commissioners have consistently be-
lieved that they would not be justified
in restoring the salaries of teachers
unless they make similar provision
for police and all other county en-
ployes.
The board will, however be glad
to give full consideration" to the
federation's plan, according to Phair.
In an effort to learn why SO many
Prince Georges County children at
tend school in Washington, the fed
Grafton will send circular letters to
all their parents asking them the
reason they do not patronize county
schools.

MANY ARE KILLED
ON NEW HIGHWAYS
Maryland Statistics Show
Speed Chief Cause of
Fatal Accidents.
BY Staff Correspondent of The Star.


BALTIMORE, August 18.- Fatal
accidents on Maryland roads occur
most frequently along straight por-
tions of new rural highways on clear
Saturday afternoons, according to
data just compiled by the commits
sioner of motor vehicles.
Furthermore, the commissioner
staff has figured out that the ma
jority of the victims are between 20
and 20 years of age, while most of
the drivers also are persons in their
20s. Speed is the chief cause of the
fatalities, and in about half of the
cases the drivers are exonerated.
These and other conclusions have
been drawn from statistics on 218
fatal accidents in which 230 persons
were killed. The information is being
used in study of the States traffic
problems and already has resulted in
the drawing of new forms for State
police to use in making reports.
In so of the cases it was found
the motorist was driving too fast
Skidding was blamed for % fatalities,
failing to give right of way for 19,
lost control for 10, improper left turn
for II, inattention for 7, faulty steer
ing gear for 6, obscured vision for 6,
faulty brakes for 5, falling asleep for
5, improper lights for 4, intoxication
for 3, careless backing for 2 and i'm
proper backing for 2. In 10 cases
the cause was listed as unknown.
The victims included 124 pedes-
trians, 81 passengers in automobiles
and As operators. Seven were less
than years old, 81 between and
IL, between 13 and Is, 20 between
l6 and 10, Al between 20 and 20, 20

that other routes, such as Eleventh
street, be used for the Chevy Chase
cars south of U street.
Bus Line Recommendations.
Recommendation for bus lines are
also sharply in conflict. The company
wants to leave buSSes out of the ques-
ton altogether and deal with them
after the track question has been set
tied. Beeler is lavish with new express
bus lines, suggesting them for Chevy
Chase, Takoma Park and Bethesda.
Sager suggests a new line across
town from Wisconsin avenue, crossing
Rock Greek Park in the line of Tilden
street, but does not offer Beeler's eX
press routes and suggests short loop
lines to take the place of the present
Burleith-Trinidad through line and
another short line from Takoma Park
to Fourteenth street and Colorado
avenue.
The company is evidently ready for
some additional bus business, having
Just bought IS new 40-seater buses
of the most modern type. Some re-
garded this move as an answer to
the whitening criticism of their car
service offered by Sager on the stand
at the hearing. Officials of the COM
pany said yesterday, however, that the
board of directors had authorized the
purchase weeks before the hearing,
and before it was known that Sager
had mis- blast ready.
Purchase of additional street cars
has also been authorized, but this is
something not expected at any very
definite date. The company is still
reported as awaiting the final outcome
of tests under way for several years
in the production of light, speedy
and comparatively silent street car
Although these tests are far along
the road TO completion. the cars are
not yet on a production basis.
Sager, in his testimony, pointed out
that the Chicago City Railway has
not waited for the report on the tests
but has bought two experimental cars
He suggested that the local company
order one or two sample cars from
reputable builders, try them out, and
determine their suitability for use in
Washington.
