II Lawyers Urge Casey
As Combined Court Head

A petition signed by u lawyers
has been sent to Attorney General
Biddle urging him to consider
Judge Walter J. Casey Of Police
Court for appointment as presiding
Judge of the combined municipal
police courts, it was announced to-
day by Attorney Charles E. Ford.
The petition refers to recent re-
ports that the District Bar Associa-
ton had recommended Judge Ma
than Cayton for the position of
chief Judge of the combined courts,
and declares:
THE District Bar Association has
never held a regular or special
meeting at which such action was
taken. That action was merely
taken by one of the District of Co.
lumbia bar committees known as
the Committee on Judicial Appoint
ments."
The committee, the petition adds,
made its recommendations to the
bar associations board of directors.
E. Barrett Prettyman, president of
the bar association, said the Com
mittee on Judicial Appointment had
acted in accordance with procedure
followed for some time.

ment is now preserving the best col
lections of plants from all over the
world.
Several thousand cinerarias. of all
colors and variety of petal designs
are intriguing visitors. This Is said
to be the finest display of cinerarias
ever shown in Washington.
The rich-colored cyclamen, some
what resembling an orchid. is an
attractive feature, with more than
300 plants on display.
Good Narcissus Display.
One important section of the show
is in tribute to the devoted services
of Wilbur j. Paget, assistant d.
rector, who for nearly 40 years has
made a special study of narcissus.
There are several thousand pots Of
all varieties on display. Botanical
authorities say that the narcissus
group is the best they have ever
seen on display. This Is especially
notable because of the extreme
difficulty in getting bulbs.
The scizanthus, of which there
are about 1000 plants on display,
are attracting much attention, be-
cause they are relatively new in
Botanic Garden exhibitions. The
plants are 2 to feet high, of at
tractive foliage and well covered
with pasty-like flowers, mostly in
pastel shades. They are sometimes
called the poor mans orchid"
Forming background for some Of
the smaller plants are 50 large
rhododendrons with heavy. rich
colored blooms.

tools, picture frames, cooking uten-

No figures are yet available on the
