MAN ) DEATH
INVESTIGATED

An autopsy will be performed
at the District Morgue today to
determine cause of the death of
Lester c. Thomas, 40-year-old
bricklayer, found dead last night
in his room at 718 Sixth st. N. w.
Meanwhile police were holding
two men and a woman for investi-
cation until Thomas death is
cleared up. Those held are Mrs.
Lillian Louise Pauley, 80; her
uncle, Lewis Napoleon Harris, IS.
and Garland B. Johnson, "a,
Thomas roommate, all of the
Sixth Street address.
Preliminary investigation re-
vealed bruise on the back of
Thomas head, police said, and
they were unable to determine
whether a blow on the head or a
fall had caused his death.
A number of empty bottles in
the room indicated Thomas had
been drinking, and other roomerS
told police they heard a quarrel
in his room about three hours be-
fore his lifeleSs body was found
by Johnson.

MISTR|AL ENDS
MANN CASE

A mistrial was declared today
in U. S. District Court in the
trial of five defendants charged
with violation of the Mann Act.
Those on trial were Mary Sher-
man, alias Mary Nipple; Joseph
Sherman, Joseph Marhack, Ida
E. Jackson and Jean Gordon.
They were charged with bring
ing a girl here for immoral pur-
poses, and yesterday, after the
trial opened, defense attorneys
F. j. Donohue and Myron G. Ehr-
Itch made a motion to quash the
warrant for their arrest and sup
press the evidence.
Justice James M. Proctor over
ruled the motion. Today, how
ever, he announced that after re-
viewing the action he decided the
motion should have been sus-
tanned. Since the evidence
already had been presented to
the jury he declared a mistrial.

ASKED
TO JUSTIFY
D. COSTS
Commissioners Order
Data to Show Local
Expenses Reasonable

Preparing to defend operating
expenses of the municipal govern
ment, the District Commissioners
today held a conference with heads
of all major departments and out
lined a program for compilation
of statistics to show the local cost
of government compares favorably
with that of cities of comparable
sizes.
The department heads were
urged to submit individual re-
ports as soon as possible, which
amounted to an order for them to
justify their own expenses.
A comprehensive study to de-
termine the comparative cost of
local government with that of
other cities was a part of the Com
miSSioners' order, and the follow
ing committee was named to OBJ
tain data of the costs in other
cities: Fire Battalion Chief Ed
ward R. Pierce, chairman; Direc-
tor of Highways H. c. Whitehurst,
Director of Public Welfare ElWood
Street, and DR.. Edgar A. Bocock,
superintendent of Gallinger Hos
pital.
unique Position" Cited
The committee was told to
speed up the gathering of data
and pass it on to the department
heads. Regarding the program,
Commissioner Melvin G.. Hazen
said:
Certainly it costs more to
operate certain departments
here in the District than it
does to operate the same de-
partments in other cities. But
that is because of the unique
position which the District Oc-
cupieS. Here there are a great
many expenses such as hos
pitfalls, schools, certain police
and fire activities and many
others, which are borne by our
city, but which on the outside
are primarily State rather than
city expenses"
FISCAL PROBE
IOQayS aCClOn was a dlrecC re-
suit of pointed suggestion made
last week at the public hearings
conducted by the special commit
tee of President Roosevelt to iron
out the Federal-District fiscal prob
lens. Clarence A. Dykstra, city
manager of Cincinnati, and a
member Of the committee, sug-
gested that the local operating ex-
penses we're excessive.
Fearful lest the chance of get
ting an increase in the Federal
contribution to the District budget
would be minimized by this view
point. the city heads deemed it ad-
visable to prepare themselves for
defense of local expenses and to
turn over to a special fiscal COM
mittee a copy of their findings.

POLICE CRASH

Driver Sought After
Crash; 5 Are Hurt
In Accidents

Police today broadcast a look
out for an automobile, probably
damaged on the left side, which
early today caused the crack-up
of a police scout car which was
pursuing it.
R. L. Eubank, driver of the
scout car, and his partner, H. A.
Turner, said when they first
noticed the other auto it was
driving on the wrong side Of the
street. They gave chase, they
said, and after several attempts
to compel the car to head in to
the curb, they finally got on the
left side of the pursued vehicle.
The other driver forced the
police to crash into a construc-
ton company tool box at the
edge of the curb at Twenty-sev-
enth st. and Pennsylvania Ave.
S. E.
The policemen escaped injury,
but their car was damaged, and
of the fleeing auto was
abandoned.

PRICE BOOST
0KAYED FOR
PRODUCERS
Diaries Declare They
Will Not Absorb
Added Cost

Realization of 14cents-a-quart
milk moved a step closer today
with tentative approval of an in
crease in price to producers by
Acting Secretary of Agriculture w.
R. Gregg.
With only a final approval by
two-thirds of the farmers produc-
ing milk in the Washington area
needed to carry the increase into
effect, the possibilities of ham
stringing the order were left hang
ing on a court decision testing the
entire validity of the milk market
ing agreement. Justice Oscar
Luhring, who has the case of IL
Independent Maryland producers
protesting operation of the agree
ment under advisement, momen-
tarily is expected to deliver his
opinion.
Producers to Approve
With the Maryland and Virginia
Milk Producers Association claim
ing membership in excess of two
thirds of the producers in this
area, the necessary approval from
that angle is imminent as the as
ISOLATION has been the foremost
proponent for a price increase
since preliminary hearings were
instituted last July.
Under the amendment as pres
ented to Secretary Gregg, produ-
GERS prices will be increased 4
cents gallon on Class 1 milk
which also has been set by corol-
larry provision as being 90 per cent
of the farmers production. He
will now receive 301a cents a gal
Ion instead of 261a cents. This
agreement will be effective from
November / until April 80.
Distributors of milk have openly
vowed to pass on the increase to
the consumers, and in briefs filed
last week at the Department of
Agriculture, certain handlers said
the price of milk delivered to the
doorstep must of necessity become
ii cents a quart instead of 13
cents.
Cafe Men Protest
The Chestnut Farms Chevy
Chase Dairy, Marcy Brothers, Inc,
of Arlington county, and the
Thompson Dairy all voiced strong
objections to the producer in
crease and said they could not alb
serb it themselves.
Donald E. Montgomery, AAA
consumers counsel, disagreed
with this contention, saying the
have not satisfactorily
shown why they cannot afford to
maintain present prices and give
the farmers more. The Washing
ton Restaurant Association, re-
portedly buying $2,5OO,00O of
milk annually also entered the
controversy this week with a
threat of setting up their own
paSteurization plant if distribu.
tors increase prices. Certain
operators already have expressed
opinions that coffee per cup must
be raised from S cents to 10 cents
