GLENN DALE UNITS
WILL Be STARTED
Bids for Nurses Home to Be
Advertised This
Week.

Five more units Of the adult tuber-
cuiosis hospital at Glenn Dale, Nd,
will be started soon, under orders
issued by the District Commissioners.
Bids for construction Of q nurses
home will be advertised this week,
and within two or three weeks con-
tractors will be asked to submit bids
for four houses for resident physi-
clans. All this work is to be COM
pleted by next July /.
The nurses home will provide hous-
ing for about 65 nurses. The cost
for this building and certain under
ground work, including heating tun-
nels, is estimated to amount to not
more than $4,000.
After contracts are awarded for
these projects, there still will remain
to be built an employees building
and an internes' building. Ohcials
said construction of these two units
would depend on final satisfaction of
the water supply from the wells now
being developed.
The Geological Survey has advised
the Commissioners an ample well wa
ter supply will be found available.
Engineer Commissioner Dan L Sultan
agrees. Secretary Of the Interior
Ickes, head of the Public Works Ad-
ministration, which has lent funds
for the sanatorium, has voiced ap-
proval Of plans followed by the Com
missioners. The deep new well, how
ever, is not yet completed.
Until it is, the Commissioners plan
to delay awarding contract for the
internes' and employees buildings,
merely as a matter of safety, officials
said yesterday. If the well water sup
ply should, Unexpectedly, prove not
satisfactory, the $4,000 or so avail
able for the last two buildings would
be used for construction Of water

" been sick, her subsequent
a actions belied the pronounce
4 4 ment that she was paralyzed.
But it must be admitted Humane
Society Agent C. H. Jones had good
ground for his opinion. When horse
lies in the middle Of the street for
three hours and stubbornly resists all
efforts to get her up, conclusion that
something's the matter seems plausible
enough.
It was while Jones was In nearby
store telephoning the home OF Bes-
sizes owner for permission to put her
out Of her misery, that things began
to happen.
"She's In pretty bad shape" Jones
had just said. I'm afraid III have to
shoot her"
Maybe 1t was coincidence, but at
that point, Bessie gave a valiant
heave. scrambled UP, lashed out with
both hind feet and set of at a dead run
down the street with a colored boy
dangling from the bride.
Bessie, Is a saddle horse and Is
kept in the alley stable of Arthur Cook
colored, near his home in the 400 block
of M street.
Falls While Exercising.
Cook said she fell while q boy had
her out for exercise about 4:30 pm.
yesterday. At first it was feared she
had broken her leg, but finally Cook
attributed to pure stubborness her re-
fusa1 to rise.
The crowd that quickly gathered
lent willing hands in an effort to lift
her to her feet. Bessie took no active
part IN the matter at ell. She declined
to cooperate. Traffic was blocked on
M street until she was pulled to the
curb.
After about an hour, Jones arrived.
He called police for help. They said
they could do nothing. He called DR..
D. E. Buckingham, District veterina-
rian, who said he had no facilities for
moving the beast. Jones called every
one he could think of who might be Of
assistance, but with no results.
When a reporter and photographer
arrived, about 7:15 pm, the officer
was just waiting, convinced the animal
was parslyzed, and hoping the owner
would turn up and authorize him to
kill it.
Her hind quarters are paralyzed. -
he declared unequivocally. How did
he know? Well, he had been around
horses a lot and could tell, he said.
Falls to Respond.
Nothing the matter with her"
maintained Cook. He gave another
heaVe on timber that had been
pushed under Bessie" at a point
about the middle of her spine. "Bes-
sic" didn't even culver.
Cook changed to the front and
pushed the plank under Bessie" She
stirred and seemed displeased. The
operation continued as so colored
persons grouped about. It was then
| that Bessie leaped up, and the
crowd scattered before her menacing
hoofs.
Although her speed was great she
didn't run far-just around the block
to her stable.
Agent Jones said some medicine he
had given her was responsible for her
being able to arise. Cook thought 1t
was the timber.
She'll probably go down again to-
night" said Jones. Horses in the fix
she's In don't get well.
Its a shame that there isn't some
organization in Washington with ia
cilities to haul a horse like that on
the streets"
