COPPER, BRASS
POPULAR WITH
HOME BUILDERS

Copper and brass. being nOn-fer
rous metals and therefore no
subject TO the ravages of rust are
becoming more and more popular
with home builders Of the nation
In like manner. there is an increas-
ing demand for copper roofs. gut
tiers. rain spouts and other acces-
series.
This is according to a bulletin OF
The Copper & Brass Research asso-
citation. published in New York city.
The bulletin says:
Trained observers in the con-
struction industry have discovered
that there is an unmistakable trend
in home building toward factors
and innovations that make for
greater permanency The fact is
becoming more and more apparent,
these experts point out. that people
are demanding homes that will last
through the years. and that endur-
ing qualities enhance greatly the
investment values that are involved
in the pleasing adventure Of owning
ones own home.
SO many people. in buying
home of their own express the view
that they want one that will be
theirs for life and for this reason
II must contain those elements of

Since copper and brass are non

COOKIES you can serve with fruit

And cookie recipes that can be

To aid your knack for making cook

which cuts sitting and measuring

this new sef-rising flour with fat,

cisions have been held under ad-
visement for more than 60 days,

Creditors Seek Part
Of Mclean Income

A petition by creditors for Edward
B. Mclean to intervene in the court
proceedings which established
$500 monthly income for Mrs.
Mclean was under consideration to-
day by Justice F. Dickinson Let's
in District Court.
The income was awarded by the
court in Otober. 1886, when her
three children we're minors. The
children now are adults with inde-
pendent means, according to the
petition, and Mrs. Mclean has an
independent income of her own.s
The court was told that Mr.. Nc
Leans creditors have claims exceed
ing $350,000 and that the income
from the trust estate of his late
father is the only possible source Of
settlement.
The American Security & Trust
Co., however, contended that some
$500, 900 is due Mrs. Mclean in back
maintenance payments, and the
estate is not producing sufficient
revenue to pay her the $500
monthly ordered by the court.
The creditors sought a share Of
the income from the estate by ask
ing to intervene under the new
rules, in Mrs. McLeans maintenance
action against her husband for her
own upkeep and that of her chill
dren. Mr.. Mclean, former pub,
Usher, is now in a sanitarium at

|Firenlen Save
Five Trapped
By Blaze
Roomers Led Down
Ladders as Flames
Block Stairway

Five persons were led down lad
ders to safety by firemen as a two
alarm blaze swept up the stairway
Of rooming house at North Capitol
and r streets early today. Three
others in the house groped their way
down the smoke -choked stairs before
the flames closed in.
The fire was discovered at 5:15
am. by Earl Watkins, one of the
roomers in the three-story building.
He rushed down the stairs shouting
an alarm to the others and ran bare
footed to the firehouse of Engine Co.
IL, block away.
His warning was heard by Charles
B. Sinner, cab driver who had just
come home from work. Mr.. Sinner
reused Mrs. Nellie Brown, who lived
on the third floor, and started down
the stairs-carrying her part of the
way to the street.
But the five others were slower
In making their escape, and when
they opened the doors to their
rooms they found the stairway
blocked by flames.
Firemen from Engine IL had re-
sponded in the meantime and
turned in second alarm. They
raised ladders on three sides of the
building to the windows where the
five roomers were calling for help
From the second floor, Miss Nor
ma Mason, John Park, jr., and Fred
Martin were rescued. From the
third floor, firemen led down Mrs
Haroldene Marshall and John Park
sr. Mr.. Park had passed up his
chance to escape from his second
floor room in order to go to the
aid of Mrs. Marshall on the third
floor.
The fire had started in a kitchen
on the second floor, and it took
more than an hour to quench the
stubborn blaze. When the fire was
out the roomers returned to fino

Restaurant Liquor
License, Opposed in
Petworth, Lapses
New A. B. 6. Board
Member May Break
Deadlock on Vote

The liquor permit for the restau-
rant of Leo j. Rossiter, at 4l3l-4134
Georgia avenue, long opposed by
spokesmen for church, civic and
school groups, has lapsed temporari-
ly due to change in the member
ship of the Alcoholic Beverage Con-
troll Board.
Yesterday was the end of the old
license year on liquor permits. Mr.
Rossiter had sought a renewal OF
his permit for another year. A pub
lie hearing was held on the appli-
cation last Monday, when renewal
of the permit was opposed by vari-
Gus Petworth interests.
Lodge Opposes Renewal.
Thomas e. Lodge, chairman Of the
a. B. c. Board, it was revealed last
night, voted against renewal of the
permit, while Mrs. Agnes K. Mason
vice chairman of the board, voteo
for renewal. Their votes were cast
yesterday.
The third member of the board
Isaac Cans, was stricken with g
heart attack yesterday and was
taken to Emergency Hospital. His
term as member of the board viii
expire tomorrow night. Mr.. Cans
80 years old today, is to be succeed.
ed on the board by William P. Mere
dith, formerly executive secretary
of the board, who will be sworn ir
on Saturday.
Procedure Undetermined.
Whether the case could be de.
cided by Mr.. Merediths vote after
he has merely read the record o1
the hearing, or whether it would be
necessary for the board to hold 8
new hearing was undecided last
night.
Due to the fact the past license
year had ended, it was said the
Rossiter restaurant could not sci
liquor today or until the legal issue
was settled. Mr.. Rossiter, who sale
he had invested some $35, 900 in ths
place, threatened court action.
