all age groups had enjoyed the same

Recent stimulation of the develop-

highly encouraging results. This new

nearly $500 less than in 1929. This
left 1927 available for non-food items
in 1929, $715 in 1888, and leaves about
$500 in 1886. The various processes
of recovery have thus increased aver
age earnings by $17S per employed

farmers, and those engaged in pro-
cessing, handling and distributing
farm products and the increased pur-
chasing power of these groups sup
ports increased employment in indus

These are hectic days for the
public! 1t seems like we just
get over the ordeal of making a
decision about the kind of
President we want, when the
auto manufacturers bring out
their new models, and start
their campaign speeches.
Funny thing about prosperity!
The country no sooner gets back
on its feet than it wants to get
off of them and sit in the driv.

However, this looks like 1t
really ought to be terrific year
for new car sales. After
what happened to so many poll
ticians, the public should realize
that it can't get anywhere by
taking a walk.
OF course, while the new mod
els are greatly improved, I still
don't think they have the get.

From what I've heard, it

POLICE START
NEW WAR0N
THIEVES
Leaves Cancelled As
Mounting Robberies
Alarm Chiefs

With police apparently power
less to check the rising tide Of
thievery in the District, the police
high command today laid plans
for a concentrated anti-crime vigil
throughout the city.
The amount of loot reported
stolen this morning by local -ner-
chants mounted we'll over $4,000,
and in the last "a hours the
thieves booty was approximately
$4,000.
Inspector Bernard w. Thomp-
son, chief of detectives. admitted
that the police force is handi-
capped by it's lack of policemen,
but stated that he would bring
to bear the entire force of the de-
partment to check the tide of
crime.
Winter Rush" On
Much of the crime, he declared,
was to be expected in the .yclical
increase as winter approaches.
Within a few weeks, he pointed
out, Christmas season will attract
thieves from out of town who are
drawn to the District by the
thought of loot from well-stocked
business establishments.
To control this influx, all leave
will be cancelled, and special atten-
ton will be paid to the business
areas.
The increase in crime here has
been along the entire crime front
with automobile, housebreaking,
and strong arm robbery taking the
fore.
Inspector Thompson revealed
that he is trying to reduce auto
mobile thefts, and has even gone
to the extent of planting" cars
with out-of-town licenses to attract
thieves, but this move has not
stopped the robbery wave.
Robberies Mount
Among the thefts reported this
morning were theft of jewelry val
ued at $64O from the apartment
of Marion E. Martin, 1880 M ST.
N. W.; theft of plate glass valued
at 1904 from premises of Isador
Glasser, 1927 Fourteenth st. N.

from liquor store of Sophia Ko-
lodin, 143O Florida Ave-, N. E.;
theft of a pocketbook containing

improvements

Hearings between the District
Commissioners, municipal depart
ment heads and the Bureau of
the Budget on the 1888 fiscal year
District budget were opened to-
day after being postponed a week.
Two budgets have been sub
mitted by the city heads for the
bureaus consideration this year.
One totaling approximately SAB
100000 cares for only the bare
operating needs of the District
and provides no improvements
for any of the municipal depart
mentS.
The second budget, totaling ap-
proximately $48,O00,O0O, provides
in addition to maintenance ex-
penditures, a few items for i'm
provements, which the Commits
sioners view as Sorely essential to
the District.
New hope for an improved fiscal
kinShip with the Federal Govern
ment was instilled in District au-
thorities over the weekend after
a hearing at which major depart
ment heads appeared before
President Roosevelt's special COM
mittee on fiscal relations. Depart
ment heads, armed with Stats
tics showing comparative costs of
operations with departments in
other cities of similar size, came
to the defense of their own ex-
penditures before the committee.
Department heads and civic
and business representatives, who
appeared before the committee
several weeks ago, contend the
annual Federal contribution to
the District budget should be more
than double the five-million-dollar
item, which was allowed by Con-
gress in the current appropriation
bill.

Suits for False Arrest

Bond Racket

motorists who claim .victimization

The meeting will be held at Up.

Policemen Warren E. Peake and
Claude L. Reese, arresting officers
in a case involving a Washington
motorist who said he was arrested
and accused OF exceeding go miles
an hour and whose court record
shows he forfeited $11.70 collat-
eral on charge of exceeding As
miles an hour. This motoriSt has
filed suit to recover the difference
between what the records show
was forfeited and what he claims
he paid bondSman to pay into
the court for him.
False Arrest Suits Loom

Jury investigation, which has
been suspended pending clearing

the current term of court, they

police, bondSmen and some magis.

county for alleged false arrest by
a number of the complaining mo-

Attorneys for some of these mo.

Mr.. Hull said he thought the
President would be a welcome

sonally concerned, he had been
taught to believe in quick get
ewayS.
When he was member of the
Tennessee Legislature his con-
stituents used to say when he
called on them:
"HOw about spending week
with u.s."
Mr.. Hull related:
"One wOuld-be-host was so in.

what he said and decided to
stay for the night"
"AbOut two hours later, I met
my friend at the courthouse.

GLORIOUS FOURTH
 In fact, she was such a grand and glorious fourth that we mi issed another issue and have to run double-header again.
 With fine su1Dort from everyone. including the weather man, Palmer had an Inden endence Day celebra ti on equal to that of many large con- unities throughout the Territory.
 From the start Of the parade till the breakup of the dance and ev- en on into the morning of the 5th-- there was something doi ing every min ute.
 Visitors from DO oints as far away as Seward thronged the Center and closer neighbors from Wasilla, Mata- nuska, the Fern and Lucky Shot mines and other nearer points swelled the crowd to really metro1olitan DroDor- tions.
 Starting off with a parade at least a quarter mile long, the day. s Festivities furnished almost contin- nous entertainment for the visitors.
 From the reviewing stand Doctor Charles E. Bunnell, President of the University of Alaska, was welcomed to the valley by Don L. Irwin.
 Doctor Punnell in his address ad- vocated Statehood as goal for AL aska, advised everyone to plan and build with an eye toward Dermanency, indi eating and drawing attention to the fact that boom mining camps and mushroom settlements without the stability of agri culture behind them to keep them alive have done little toward preparing Alaska for 8 star in the Flag. Doctor Bun- lell's talk was received enthusias- oically by his audience.
 Immediately following the address the Color Guard of the local post of the Ar?erican Legion raised the flag 0n the new sixty foot pole before the school house.. This ceremony was iol1oWed by community singing led by Frank Ring.
