JOBLESS GARDENS
SEEDS PREPARED
Forty Emergency Relief Workers
Get Ready for Distribution
to Needy.

approximately 40 employees of the
Emergency Relief Division worked un-
til about 4 am. today, preparing vege-
table seeds for distribution among the
needy families participating in this
years subsistence gardens program.
Beginning at 10 pm. yesterday, the
relief workers, under direction of r. L.
King, filled approximately 10000 en-
velopes with dozen varieties of seeds.
Lined up in front of several tables
obtained especially for the purpose.
the workers transferred the seeds
from the 250-pound sacks in which
they had been shipped.
The seeds were inspected today by
Mrs. Frederick H. Brooke, chairman
of the Advisory Committee on Sub
siStence Gardens, before the work Of
distributing them was begun.
Meanwhile, virtually all the garden
tracts had been plowed and prepared
for planting. A few persons, King
said, had purchased their own seeds
and planted their gardens within the
last few days.
Vegetables raised by the gardeners
will be used on their tables imme-
diately, or else will be preserved for
use next Winter. Nearly 500 needy
families were aided by the program
last year and about twice that many
are expected to take part this year.
A few gardens still remain unlocked.
however, and applications are being
received at Powell House, Third and

Says He May Be Talking Out
of Turn, but Believes Pub
lie Should Know Facts.
ASSERTS ONLY II OF 80
COMPANIES ARE MODERN
Believes District Now Needs
$83,500 for Purchase of
New Equipment.

Chief Engineer Charles E. Schrom
of the Fire Department., who usually
burns his own smoke, took chance
on getting into trouble today and
sounded a public alarm as to the
decrepit state of much of Washing
tons f1re-fighting apparatus.
Il may get myself into trouble by
speaking out on this matter" Chief
Schrom said. but If I do I will
have to take it! The facts in the
case call for an explanation and the
public should know what the facts
are!"
Although man Of few words. and
decidedly not given to public state
ments, Chief Schrom described in de-
tail how lack of funds is preventing
the replacement of obsolete equipment,
the building up of adequate personnel
and the proper maintenance of the
departments buildings.
Situation VIII Grow Worse.
The situation is bad enough now.
he said. but will become progressively
worse If the District in future years
is unable to return to plan adopted
In 1882 for replacement of each piece
OF equipment, on planned schedule,
when 1t has reached the end of its
life Of service after Is years.
Chief Schrom pointed out that IS
years Is the average life of fire ap-
paratus. but that this plan of retire
ment was not followed in the fiscal
years OF 1888 and 1894. The House,
he added, now has eliminated a re-
quest for $50. 900 left in the 1885 esti-
mates by the Budget Bureau for the
purchase Of four pieces of apparatus.
This despite the fact that of the
Districts 80 engine companies, only ii
have modern equipment. IL get along
with half modern and half obsolete
equipment and must perform their
duties with no modern equipment at
all.
The old equipment, he said, has
solid tires which operate to pound
the equipment to pieces on Washing
ton streets at an advanced rate and
at the same time doing no good to
Washington streets.
Needs ss3,5oo for Equipment.
Specifically. Chief Schrom believes
the District now needs a sum of ap-
proximately sS3.500 for the purchase
OF new apparatus. to replace out
worn equipment and funds for an
enlargement Of the Fire Department
personnel by at least A men. Chief
Schrom has told this story to certain
members of Congress. following the
action of the House in slashing the
$4,000 item for new equipment and
said he would retell it again to other
members of Congress whenever an
opportunity is given. He has hopes
the Senate will at least restore the
$4,000 item.
Checking back over Fire Depart
ment records, Chief Schrom noted to-
day that his department now has 10
pieces of fire-f1ghting equipment
which are about IS years old or older.
All 10 pieces need replacement, he de-
clared. Also, several other pieces. not
yet IS years old, have suffered dam
age in accidents, which has served to
shorten their life of service, he said.

the swarm Of stars, past the borders,
into the universe beyond.
1T is empty for the most part
vast stretches Of empty space. But
here and there, at immense intervals,
we find other stellar systems COM
parable with our own. They appear
as faint patches of light. These
nebulae are great beacons scattered
through the depths Of space. We find
them smaller and fainter in constant
ly increasing numbers until, with the
faintest nebulae that can be detected
with the greatest telescope, we have
reached the frontiers of the known
universe. 1t is a vast sphere, some
100000 light years in diameter,
through which are scattered 100 ,000,-
900 nebulae."
The more distant Of the nebulae,
he said, appear to be speeding away
from the earth at velocities which in
crease roughly 100 miles a second for
each million light years of distance.
Rushing Away From Center.
"The present distribution of nebulae," /"
he said. "can be represented on the
assumption that they once were
jammed together In our particular
region Of space and at particular
instant. about 1000 ,000,0 900 years ago.
they started rushing away in all di-
rections at various velocities. The
slower nebulae, according to this as
sumption, still are in our neighbor-
hood. but the faster ones now are
far away.
THE largest red-shift actually re-
corded represents velocity of about
$4,000 miles per second at a distance
OF. roughly. l50.000,000 light years.
But nebulae can be photographed out
to distances twice or thrice the dis
tances to which their spectra can be
recorded. Hence, if the observed re-
lation holds to the very frontiers of
the observable region. we should en-
counter red shifts corresponding to
veiocities Of from 10000 to 10000
miles per second-about a fifth the
velocity of light"

REALTY AUDITOR
COMMITS SUICIDE
Wilson R. Burch InhaIes
Carbon Monoxide Gas
in Garage.

Leaving a note in which he denied
responsibility for losses suffered by q
former employer, Wilson R. Burch,
40. an auditor, ended his life early to-
day by inhaling carbon monoxide gas
in the garage in the reaS of his home.
5341 Broad Branch road.
Mr.. Burch. who also left a note
bequeathing all his property to his
wife, Mrs. Bessie B. Burch, was found
about z am. by his daughter Louise,
%. He was seated behind the steer
ing wheel of his automobile, the motor
OF which apparently had been running
for several hours.
Loaded Revolver Found.
On the seat beside Mr.. Burch was
pint bottle. containing about a gill
of whisky. In a pocket Of his over
coat. which had been thrown across
the back Of the seat, investigators later
discovered a fully loaded revolver.
Investigation of the case was begun
by Coroner A. Magruder Macdonald
and homicide squad detectives soon
after an Emergency Hospital physician
had pronounced Mr. Burch dead, CIV
ing carbon monoxide poisoning as the
probable cause. The doctor had gone
to the Burch residence in an ambu-
lance summoned by the daughter.
The notes were found by Coroner
Macdonald. who turned them over to
Inspector Frank S. w. Burke, chief
Of detectives. One of them directed
that all Mr.. Burch's property be
turned over to my dear wife and
daughter"
The other note was addressed to
Joseph H. Hines, head of q real es-
tate concern bearing his name, which
formerly employed Burch, but Inspec-
tor Burke refused to reveal its text
"All care to say" Burke said, sis
that the note refers to certain losses
and says that the writer was not re-
sDonsible for all of them
Hines declined to discuss the case,
except to say:
Mr.. Burch was associated with me
until very recently. but do not care
to say anything about him other than
that he is no longer with me-"
NOnlcTS WIN DuIkes
Later, however, Hines conferred
with Burke. going over the contents
Of the note with him.
Mr.. Burch, according to informa-
ton given Coroner Macdonald, went
out shortly after 10 o'clock last night,
without saying where he was going.
When his daughter arose this morn
ing. she noticed automobile exhaust
smoke emanating from the closed
garage and decided to investigate.
Mr.. Burch's mother died about three
weeks ago, but, according to the In
formation given DR.. Macdonald, he
had shown no signs of unusual de-
spondency.
The note bequeathing Mr.. Burch's
property to his wife and daughter was
dated April 20, indicating, police
pointed out, that he had contemplated
killing himself for several days, at
least. Coroner Macdonald issued
certificate of suicide.
