Card Playing Once Only
Pastime for the Mobiles

According to the authority of Strut
the general opinion as to the origin
of playing cards is that they were In
vented by a painter, one 'Gringonneur,
for the diversion of crazy Charles vi
of France, about the year 1892; but
Baron Heinekin places their use in
Germany score of years earlier, while
allusion is made in British Chronicles
to the game of 'Four Kings" played in
1877.
Experts in Asiatic history declare
that cards were used in countries of
the East long before they reached Eu-
rope. Warrior suggests the Arabians as
the inventors of cards, his theory being
that they taught the Greeks, and that
during the Crusades the game was
learned by the soldiers from western
Europe.
In the earlier history or card playing
it is safe to presume (writes May
Wynne in "Mine") that packs of cards
were not easily produced, since they
had to be drawn and painted by hand.
So cards virtually remained diversion

Chevv Chase Citizens


Edwin S. Hege, president Of the
Chevy Chase Citizens Association,
last night charged that the Dis.
trict Health Office was not
active in opposing the erection OF
an abattoir on BenningS Road,
Northeast. The association then
went on record, by unanimous
vote, as opposing the proposed
plant.
On motion by Fred A. Emery,
the Capital Transit Company was
asked to inaugurate a direct bus
service from Chevy Chase to the
Union Station and the Capitol.
Bus Line Proposed
Another resolution, requesting
the transit company to operate a
Chevy Chase express bus service
with no passengers eaken on
south-bound after passing Calvert
Street, and no stops north-bound
between K and Calvert Streets,
was referred to the committee on
transportation to ascertain the
feasibility of the plan.
A preliminary report from the
nominating committee disclosed
the intention to nominate all Of
ficers for reelection at the Janu-
ary meeting. President Hege,
however, informed the meeting he
would decline the nomination.

BY A. J. DRISCOLL
Citizens Associations Editor

A thorough investigation by
Congress of the United States Dis
trict Attorneys Office and the
Public Utilities Commission was
demanded by the Dahlgren Ter
race Citizens Association at a
meeting held last night in the
Crosby Noyes School.
Both resolutions were placed be-
fore the association by its presi-
dent, John P. Cahill, who left the
chair to press for their passage.
His attack was leveled at District
Attorney Leslie c. Garnett and

chief assistants.
He criticized the Public Utili-
ties Commission for permitting
the extension of one-man cars
despite heated opposition.
Oppose AbattOir
The association, by unanimous
vote, opposed the granting of a
permit to Adolph Gobel, Inc, to
establish an abattoir on BenningS
Road Northeast. Erection Of a
stadium as a shrine to Thomas
Jefferson at the end Of East
Capitol Street was proposed to
take place of the monument sug-
HeSted for Potomac Park.
It was also voted to petition the
Interstate Commerce Commission
to compel the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad to equip its lines in the
District with modern electric
trains.
The Public Library Board was
asked in resolution to operate
the Woodbridge branch on a full
weekly basis instead of the pres
ent parttime basis.

Believing lax law enforcement

Asked If this rule applied to those

"If men appointed or elected to

land, they are even more culpable
under the law than the average citi-

that I mean there would have to be

Hooe explained that his order was
not intended to deprive his asso-

issue papers in cases where the cir
cumstances do not warrant prose-
cution.
