Bu||et.Ridd|ed Auto
OF Japanese Embassy
Aide Puzzles Police
Machine Damaged While
Parked Behind Apartment
Building, Owner Says

The mystery behind four bullet
holes in a high-powered automobile
registered in the name of 1t. Masa-
kaza Tukasaki, ordnance officer at
tached to the Japanese Embassy
here, puzzled Washington police to-
day.
The bullet-riddled vehicle was
called to the attention of police yes
terday by employees of filling sta
ton at Twenty-second and M
streets NV. Their curiosity had
been aroused by two holes IN the
right side glasses, one in the rear
glass and one in the right rear hub
cap. They also found two .38-cai-
Der bullets, one on the inside of the
car and one on the inside of the
hub cap.
1t. Tukasaki told Policeman
Maurice Barko of the third precinct,
investigating the case, that he had
left the automobile parked behind
the Alban Towers, apartment build
ing in the 3700 block Of Massa-
chuSetts avenue NV, on the morE-
ing of June % to take sightseeing
trip through the Shenandoah VAL
ley with other attaches at the En-
baSsy and had returned that night
to find the bullet holes.
Blames Children.
The naval aide attributed the dam
age to children of the neighborhood.
He said he reported it the next day
to the agency with which he had
the automobile insured, but had not
notified police because he did not
think it necessary.
Stains found on the floor of the
car were examined by DR.. Richard
Rosenberg, deputy coroner, who re-
ported that they had not been caused
by blood.
In their investigation of the auto
mobile, now held at third precinct
station, police found a quantity of
Photographic material in the pock-
cts, as well as three maps, two of
SAA>AAA oeAN maps VI VSAdillC dllu 1chdS
and the other hand-drawn map
lettered with Japanese characters.
Student at Catholic U.
Capt. Walter T. Storm, COM
mander of No. precinct, reported
that the matter had been brought
to the attention of the F. B. I. and
that inspectors had been sent from
the United States immigration
Service to question the naval aide.
F. B. I. officials explained they
could not exercise jurisdiction.
Inspectors w. P. Glendening and
Robert B. Jones reported that 1t.
Tukasaki informed them he was en-
rolled as a student at Catholic Uni
versity and was studying mechanical
engineering, economics and English
language.

Soap Box Derby
Checkup
Ends Tonight
Youths Hasten
Final Preparations
For Event Saturday

The corps of inspectors assigned
to check coaster cars entered in the
Washington Soap Box Derby plans
to complete its work late tonight,
Zeb T. Hamilton, director of the
race for boys. said today. No racer
which has not been presented for
inspection by the time the inspectors
leave the Randle Highlands School,
Thirtieth street and PENNSYLVANIA
avenue Sc, will be permitted to
compete Saturday, he emphasized.
Entrants given extensions because
of last-minute difficulties were strug-
Cling to complete their motorleSs
cars today in order to be present at
7:30 pm. for the final Weighing-in
session. Among these was Eugene
Carroll, IA, 1927 Fifth street NV,
who said he never had so much
trouble with anything" The ship
ment of wheels in which his set
was included was delayed. and a
power failure halted the electrical
tools IN his workshop he related.
Boys Really Took Pains.
Broken in by Monday nights
labors. the American Legion Inspec-
ton Committee performed its duties
smoothly last night Chairman Ed
win Thomas was called upon re-
peatedly to pass upon doubtful points
of construction. Defective steering
assemblies and weak brakes were the
principal causes for shakes of the
head, but officials expressed them
selves as well-pleased with the quail
ity of workmanship.
The boys really took pains with
their jobs this year." Mr.. Hamilton
commented. I'VE expect very few
unequivocal disqualihcations. En-

Virginia Buses

Line Is at Lost
Approved by Ickes

ruling and the approval of Interior
Secretary Ickes, the three bus COM
panies operating between the Dis
trict and nearby Virginia today COM
pleted plans for routing their carriers
over the Arlington Memorial Bridge
and along Constitution avenue TO
the central downtown area.
r. T. Mitchell, traffic manager OF
the Alexandria, Bancroft and WASH
ington Transit Co., authorized
spokesman for the three bus COM
panies, said all planned to start
service over the bridge and along
Constitution avenue tomorrow
morning.
The other companies affected are
the Arlington and Fairfax Motor
Co and the Washngton-V Virginia
and Maryland Coach Co.
Mr.. Mitchell said his company had
made several test runs over the
new route. In an effort to learn
patrons reactions to the new serv-
ice the A. B. & w. Co. will distribute
Questionnaires to riders on estab-
liShed routes.
Won't Affect Schedules.
Diversion of buses to the new
route will not affect previous sched-
ules and routes, Mr. Mitchell said.
The fare will be the usual 10 cents,
he stated.
Mr.. Mitchell explained that all
three lines planned to gear schedules
of the buses entering the city over
Memorial Bridge to existing sched-
ules in Virginia so that the new
service will amount to an "ampli-
| fication" rather than a change in
the old. Connection will be made
at key points in Virginia, he said,
and all companies will continue to
use their customary Washington
terminals.
He outlined the routes for the
three companies as follows:
! A., B. & w. and A. & F. will follow
/ the same path along Constitution
avenue to Twelfth street, north on
Twelfth to E street. east on E to
Tenth street and the terminal on
| Tenth between E and D streets NV.
Wv. & M. will continue along
Constitution to Ninth street. proceed
north on Ninth to E street and west
on E to the terminal at Eleventh
and E streets NV.
Ickes Gives Approval.
Approval of the I. c. c. was given
shortly after Secretary Ickes, long
an opponent of permitting COM
mercial vehicles to use roads under
his jurisdiction, signif1 d his
| authorization of the new routing in
the interest of the defense program.
Specifically, he said he hoped 1t
would improve service to the ex-
panding War and Navy Depart
ments and other agencies along
Constitution avenue
| Mr.. Ickes also said he hoped the
| three bus companies would arrange
their schedules so attractively that
many persons now using private
| automobiles to reach their Offices
would use buses instead. This, he
pointed out, would reduce traffic
congestion and conserve gasoline.
The Public Utilities Commission
made known its approval of the
new routing late yesterday.
Mr.. Mitchell said the three bus
companies jointly had petitioned
the I. c. c. for the re-routing in
February. A similar effort was made
several years ago without success,
| he said. The Virginia State
Corporation Commission gave its
authorization last month.

MAKING MANIdNS DUMB but BEAUTIFUL

Human hair is being used in this
case and an expert hair-dresser
is arranging the locks in the
current mode.
Just as much care is taken in
the designing of the arms. the
legs and the torsos of the modern
store-window model. These de-
tails, too. are taken from life
and are painstakingly finished so
that they look charming and nat
