sidered as Washington's industry
Mr.. Whitnall said 1t should and
added that it was an industry be-
cause it did not cater to patrons
on the premises and created a
static (all day. parking problem
rather than a dynamic (shopping)
parking problem.
Col. McCoach said the District is
now considering ways and means OF
coping with the problem and asked
what sort of terminal facilities
should be provided and if they
should be a public or private re-
sponsibility. Mr.. Whitnall said that
since streets and docks and airports
were public responsibilities. parking
lots should be as well. He recon-
mended to the Engineer Commis-
sloner a happy mixture Of public and

Movig swiftly at the request OF
Edward M. Curran, United States
attorney for the District, the Sem

approved the measure and placed it
on the Senate calendar so it could
be passed on today in the event

The proposed legislation was rec
commended by District Attorney
Curran as an outgrowth Of a pam
dering case in a Ninth street tavern
in which it was claimed a waiter
who was guilty of SOLICITING for a
young prostitute could not be prose-
cuted because of certain weaknesses
in existing law.
The bill approved by the Senate
District Committee not only would
strengthen the present law but
would increase the penalty for those
found guilty of pandering. The
maximum sentence would be a fine
of $1,000, five years imprisonment,

He calls it extrasensory perception

Fourth Meeting
Called 10 Seek
Strike Truce
U. S. Agent to Talk
With Sanitary Store
Heads and Workers

A fourth conference between
union and company representatives
after three others had failed to
bring an agreement-Was arranged
this afternoon by Labor Department
conciliators in an effort to settle
the four-day-old strike that has
closed 215 Sanitary Grocery stores
in and near Washington and af-
fected the jobs of more than 1000
persons
Conciliator Frank j. Sheehan an
nounced this afternoon that the
conference would begin at o'clock
at the Offices Of B. A. Leatherman,
personnel and labor relations di-
rector for the Sanitary Grocery Co.
here, at the Investment Building.
Company Offer Rejected.
Conferences held Saturday, Sun
day and yesterday resulted in a
compromise proposal by the COM
pany that was rejected by the more
than 900 striking clerks and store
managers last night.
Several hundred strikers, meeting
at Carpenters Hall, 1908 K street
NV, voiced disapproval last night
of the company's proposal which
would have shortened experience
requirements for pay raises to clerks
from one to three years. The clerks
pointed out there was no melton
of their demands for seniority rat
ings. two weeks vacation instead
of the present one week and pay
raises of $3.50 week for men with
Az years experience. Clerks in the
latter classification now receive $50
a week and clerks salaries begin
at s2l a week
The 215 Sanitary stores in and
near Washington remained closed
today. It was estimated more than
1100 other employees have been put
out of work by the strike OF about
900 clerks and managers.
One factor that has tempered the
company's compromise attempts, it
was understood, is that Safeway,
Inc, the parent concern of the Sanl-
tary stores here and about 1000
other stores throughout the Nation,
fears that to meet the strikers de-
mands here would set precedent
when workers contracts are re-
neWed elsewhere.

You had better be careful what
you think when student of Ameri-
can University is around. Out at
that school they are learning to
read your mind.
A course in clairvoyance and
telepathy has the campus agog. Re-
porters were out yesterday sneak
ing a look at the class-consistlng
mostly of young ladies-under the
direction of DR.. John Bentley, psy-
chology department head.
Don't think that DR.. Bentley is
a medium or a gazer into crystal
balls. He says he is going into the
deep. dark mysteries of mental COM
munication with an open mind-not
convinced about single thing. But
the scientist suspects that beyond
the borders of our usual knowledge
there are "other avenues to be ex-
plored." He is now prepared to
take glimpse"
So are the co-eds.
Try Tricks With Cards.

sages back and forth through the

The girls do their research by a
series of card games. The investi-
gator shuffles through a deck. tries
to perceive what symbol is on the
front of each card-while all she
can see is a perplexing spider
web pattern on its back.
If she can name the card with no
help she's clairvoyant. If some one
gives her a hint, purely by brain
waves, that's telepathy.
