TRAFFIC PRESSURE
ORDERED BY HAzEN
Police Superintendent Told
to Continue Vigilance
to Curb Deaths.

Encouraged by the reduction in
traffic toll that has been accomplished
since the police campaign against
reckless drivers was started, Commits
sioner Melvin C. Hazen today urged
Police Superintendent Ernest w
Brown to keep up the pressure
against offenders.
Only two minor traffic accidents last
night and this morning were noted

quest tomorrow.
Four Deaths in Campaign.
Traffic Director William A. Var
Duzer has informed Hazen there were
but four traffic deaths here in thu
six weeks of the safety campaign. Ir

there were IA fatalities.
During the six weeks ending August
81 there were APT injuries, as against
562 in the preceding six weeks, anc
962 accidents, as against 1919 in the
earlier period.
This indicates rather clearly that
strict enforcement and stiff penalties
are the answer to the problem of Law
obedience" said Commissioner Hazen
THE Commissioners previously hac
sponsored educational campaigns ano
the net result was an increase in the
traffic toll, as compared with TIT
same periods Of the preceding year

DECISIONS CITED
|NBOUNDARYF|GHT
D. c. Contention in Lands
Case Supported by Spe-
CiaI Attorney.

An imposing array of court decisions
was turned over to the Virginia-Dis-
trict Boundary Commission today by
Judge G. A. 1verson, special assist
ant attorney general, to support the
contention that the District Of CO.
lunbia line runs to the high water
mark on the Virginia shore.
The records, from Justice Depart
ment library files, were presented
when former Gov. Charles H. Brough
Of Arkansas, chairman Of the COM
mission, asked if there were any court
decisions in addition to two mentioned
by Federal counsel.
Judge Iverson in presenting the
records emphasized that all higher
courts had upheld the contention that
the District line runs to high water
mark on the Virginia shore. He in
sisted that court decisions in cases
elsewhere, where no tides flowed,
could not be made applicable to the
present dispute Tides and the high
water mark make this matter distinc-
tive here, Federal counsel insisted.
Chairman Brough asked Govern
ment counsel If there were any de-
cisions in which defendants won &C
quittal, or where the District lost
jurisdiction because cases were locat-
ed in the area between low water mark
and high water mark on the Virginia
shore.
Henry H. Classic, special Assistant
Attorney General, said there were no
such cases. One defendant attempt
ed to appeal on such grounds, Classic
said, but lost.
Insisting that Federal counsel had
proved the marsh beteen Alexanders
Island and the Virginia shore was
bed of the Potomac River and thus
District of Columbia land, Judge
Iverson said that If there had been
any change in the boundary since it
was marsh, either by filling in or by
any other program, then that change
threw the burden Of proof on the
Virginians to show that they could
so I'LL in the bed of the Potomac and
make it Virginia soil.

Woman on Blind Flight Wins
Battle in Fog Ouer Alleghenies
Peril of Mrs. Savage
Like That Costing
Many Lives.
Lands Safely at College
Park After Trip From
Cleveland.

Trapped in heavy fog over the Allie
gheny Mountains in her open-cockpit
airplane, without radio or blind flying
instruments, Mrs. Genevieve Moore
Savage, wife of Capt. Charles M. Saw
age, adjutant at Boiling Field, fought
a winning fight yesterday against odds
which have spelled death for many
pilots.
For many miles Mrs. Savage flew
completely blind through fog which
cut off all sight of the ground, relying
only on magnetic compass, air speed
indicator and bank and turn indicator
to get through. The annals of avia-
ton are full of stories of pilots who
have lost control under similar cir
cumstances and have crashed to their
deaths.
Mrs. Savage, who was designated
outstanding local aviation leader in
1884, winning the annual trophy of
the Washington Air Derby Associa-
ton, was on her way back to Wash
irgton from the national air races in
Cleveland when she ran into bad
weather. For three days she remained
on the ground in Pittsburgh.
Forced to Continue.
Yesterday morning, when the
weather at Pittsburgh began to lift
a little, she took of, although weather
reports showed dangerous weather
over the mountains. Only 90 miles
out of Pittsburgh she stuck the nose
of her little plane into solid fog but
continued, thinking is was only a
short fog bank and would soon break.
1t continued unbroken, however. and
she soon realized she was in so deeply
she couldn't get out.
With her eyes glued on the mag
netic compass, air speed indicator
and turn and bank indicator she
fought against stall or spin which
probably would have resulted in a
fatal crash. Only a few years ago, it
was generally conceded, that such
flying was a virtual impoSsibility and
that any pilot who could come out
of such situation alive was lucky.
Holding her course by blind reckon
ing, she crossed nearly the whole Of
the Allegheny Range before she caught
a glimpse of the ground. She then
picked up a road and followed it into
Hagerstown, Md, where she landed
at the Hagerstown Airport with a
ceiling Of only 800 feet.
She waited for several hours at
Hagerstown for the weather to i'm
prove and when it finally began to
lift, telephoned to Washington and
found conditions also were improving
here. She took of again but soon
ran into thick weather once more
and came a large part of the way
under a ceiling of only 300 to 400
