Accident Fax e 7
Begins 5-Yedr
Prison Term

BALTIMORE, March 2 O.N.SO.
Billed by the police in Newark, N.
j., Philadelphia and in other
cities as a professional accident
faker, Donald R. Diverly, a native
of California, who can stretch his
neck and some other parts of his
body out of joint, entered the
penitentiary today for a five-year
stretch.
Arrested under the name of
Frank Rush, the "India-rubber
man" of many aliases was SEN
fenced for falsely claiming money
from the trolley company and
hotel.
The prisoner maintained his
mishaps here were real" while
admitting, at the same time, he
had collected 100000 in 200 faxed
accidents committed in various
cities. His latest stretch was in
Newark, N. j., where he was re-
leased from prison January 3,
1887, after serving nearly a year
in connection with a faxed acci-
dent.
He was about to collect $85
from the trolley company for al
legged bruises received during a bus
ride when investigators identified
him as the so-called "India-rub-
ber man" who has staged so many
fake miShapS around the country.

The committee has given

tailed estimates of cost were

MATTER OF ECONOMY
while perhaps not intended
primarily for aerOnautical
studies by Navy engineers, they
would be available for such pur-
poses, and the committee con-
cluded that it would be uWiSe
to incorporate such features in
plant conceived and legiSlated
for as an up-tO-date surface
and Sub-Surface ship model test
ing basin. Neither was the
committee impressed with the
need to build the plant on land
not now owned by the Govern
ment.
"The committees thought IS
that the plant might very well be
built on the property partly Oc.
Cupied by the Naval Research
Laboratory at Bellevue, d. C.
Such a course would save the
provision of many facilities al.
ready available at the existing

tiOn recommended conforms with
these ideas and is in the amount
of S1,5OO,O00, so as to permit

tracted for at cost not in ex-
cess of $2,5OO,OOO."
