WEEK
SCHEDULED IN
MARYLAND
Motor Vehicles Head Gives
Rules for Safe Driving
in Traffic Drive

Courtesy Week, designed to re-
duce the number of traffic acct
dents and fatalities, will be OBJ
served this year from May 26 to
June 2, it was announced today
by Motor Vehicles Commissioner
Walter R. Rudy of Maryland.
In an effort to make driving
safer, Commissioner Rudy has
drawn up the following list ~of
"Do's and Dont's" for Maryland
motorists:
Don't drive at excessive speed.
This is the first and foremost
cause of disaster on the high.
ways.
Don't cling to the center of
the road, thereby lining up We"
hicles in back of you that dodge
out and back to get around you,
to the extreme danger Of them
selves and all who come near
them.
Observe all stop signs.
Don't pull away from curb
without looking back and sig
Mailing.
Keep sharp eye on children
and go slowly through school
zones. Remember that "chil-
dren playing are not thinking
human beings"
Don't jump the green light.
See that your automobile is
in good mechanical condition,
especially as to brakes and
lights.
Don't turn around, if you are
driving, to engage in backseat
conversation. Safety demands
the concentration of ones entire
attention upon the operation of
the car.
Don't overtake and pass a car
on curve or on the crest of a
hill.
Don't be a pest by undue
blowing of your horn. Horn
blowing should never be substi-
tuted for careful driving.
Don't drive if you are sleepy
or fatigued.
Observe all hand signals.
Don't crowd the front seat.
Even the most careful driver
needs plenty Of arm and leg
room.

RULING
FAILS To END
LABOR ROW
Justice Adkins Decision
Leaves Unit Virtually
Without Officers

Opposing factions in the build.
ing trades department of the
American Federation Of Labor
came to an unusual stalemate yes.
terday in their District Supreme
Court action intended to settle a
jurisdictional dispute between the
federation and the department.
The petitioning group, elected
to the executive council at a spe-
cial convention called by William
Green, president of the fedora
ton, last December, were unsuc.
cessful in their attempt to GUST
from office the group elected at
the San Francisco convention last
September.
At the same time Justice Jesse
c. Adkins announced he would
hold that the group whose custer
was sought was not entitled to
hold office longer because, under
the American Federation of
Labor constitution, their terms Of
office have expired.
The ruling of the court leaves
the department virtually without
officers and the jurisdictional dis
pute only partly settled.
Originally the legal proceedings
sought an injunction against the
group elected in San Francisco,
restraining them from attempting
to conduct the affairs of the de-
partment, in addition to a court
order directing them to turn over
the offices in the Labor Building,
together with books and records
and the $4,000 department fund.

rection of Green.
The defendants claim a moral
victory. however, in that their
cross-bill, which challenged the
validity of the special convention.

Death Ends LabOrs
OF Church Sexton

Tomorrow, for the first time in
20 years, Charles Lee, colored sex
ton of the Church of the Epiphany,
1400 block G st. N. w., will not
report for duty.
Richard Mann, another sexton,
also colored, early today stumbled
upon his fellow workers inert
form, lying in a heap before the
open door of the furnace he had
started to clean in the basement
of the church.
The imprint of a sooty hand
upon the white bosom of his shirt
mutely testified to the cause of
his death. He had suffered the
last of a recent series of heart at
tacks.
He was about 80 years of age.
No one seemed to know just how
many years he had lived-but
church officials agreed he had
lived them we'll.
Mrs. Martha Mayo, financial
secretary of the church, extolled
his virtues in a voice which be-
trayed only faint indication of
