ALEXANDRIA, Va. April as
Judge James r. Duncan of the Civil
and Police Court yesterday ruled 1t
would be against public policy to
permit a landlord to evict a man
and wife from their apartment II
they become parents during the Pc
riod of their lease.
In suit fled by Newman II. Ray
mond against Mr.. and Mrs. James
A. Jones of 1901 De Witt avenue. the
plaintiff charged the birth of baby
daughter. Barbara Lee, six months
ago, violated the terms Of the lease,
which specified the apartment was
to be occupied by two adults and
banned pets on the premises. The
lease was silent with respect to chill
dren.
Judge Duncan ruled that since the
lease was thus silent 1t did not nee
essarily constitute a limitation on
children and also that 1t would be
against public policy to force those
who become parents to move prior
to the expiration of their lease.

Farmers 10 Get
Higher Price
For rCredm
Producers Agree to
Try Out Wickord's
Marketing Plan

Washington dairies will have To
pay farmers more for milk used for
cream and other special purposes,
under a new milk marketing order
which the board of directors of the
Maryland and Virginia Milk Pro-
ducers' Association has ratified. but
whether the plan win raise the retail
price of any milk products remains
to be determined after the new scale
has been tried out.
A dairy official said nothing would
be done by the dealers before May
about the price of milk and cream.
He pointed out that the ONCE of
Price Administration might place
ceiling on dairy products. in which
event no change could be made in
milk prices.
The marketing order, proposed by
Secretary of Agriculture wickard.
was approved by the producers asso-
citation under protest" because the
ldIIllcfS uOQDL WflctIleT tL1ey Will
gain any substantial benefit.
The action of the producers, how
ever, gives Secretary Wickard au-
thority to put the new schedule into
effect as soon as 1t is signed by
President Roosevelt.
Milk Price Unchanged.
The agreement does not change
the price to be paid dairy farmers
for milk which dealers sell as milk,
1t remains at s3.57 hundredweight,
plus premiums averaging 80 cents,
making the total average $3.50. But
for milk used by dealers for all
other purposes-fiuid cream, choco-
late milk, skim milk, buttermilk and
favored milk drinks-the amount TO
be paid the producers is increased by
sl.47 a hundredweight.
In commenting on the resolution
of approval voted by the directors,
B. B. Derrick, manager of the Mary
land and Virginia Milk Producers
Association, said the dairymen still
were opposed to the principle Of
combining fluid milk and fluid cream
In the same class, but that they
voted to accept Mr.. Wickard's mar
keting amendments to avoid possible
i'll effects that might result from
suspension of the order. 1T was not
possible to vote separately on the
various provisions Of the order, Mr..
Derrick explained, adding:
eff there lis no loss of fluid cream
sales and If there is no bootlegging,
and If it Is possible to maintain the
cream price at the high level sug-
gested, then and only then viii
dairymen receive any real increase
in price from the adoption of these
amendments. However, we are
willing to try it, and If it works. we
win be the first ones to favor st."
Three -Fourths Vote.
The associations approval, Mr..
Derrick pointed out. gives Secretary
Wickard the necessary three-fourths
vote of the producers, since an
Overwhelming number are repre-
sented by the organization.
While no announcement OF any
plan to raise retail prices has been
made by the dairies, the Chestnut
Farms Chevy Chase Dairy, the larg-
est In the city, filed on April IA q
protest against the proposed mar
keting amendment. The company
predicted that 1t would bring an in
crease of cents half pint In cream
and of cent quart In milk. The
present delivered price Of milk Is Is
cents quart and of cream 16 cents
half pint.

Volunteers Battle
Woods, Field Fires
In Nearby Counties
D. c. Trucks, Companies
Aid Hillside, ForestviIle
In Fighting Big BIuze

Fires ragged in forests and fields
throughout Maryland and Virginia
today as a large blaze in nearby
Prince Georges County. Md, con-
tinued to burn for a third day.
Volunteer firemen. assisted by cit
liens, fought through smoke and
flames until dawn today in the
Prince Georges County fire which
was thought to have been brought
under control yesterday morning
but which flared up again in the
afternoon.
Members of the Hillside and For
estville Volunteer Fire Departments
worked until about 4 am. before
quitting to get some rest. AT least
10 county fire departments, assist
ed by two trucks from Washington
compa nies, were battling the blaze
at various times.
Deny Farm Houses Vacated.
Police and fire companies. how
ever, said that as far as was known,
there was no serious property dam
age or injuries and they knew MOTH
ing of persistent reports of farm
houses being vacated or burned to
the ground.
The Prince Georges County fire,
which is estimated to have scorched
more than 1000 acres, was one of
three serious blazes raging out of
control in Southern Maryland, the
radio dispatcher at the District for
ester's office at Laurel reported.
High temperatures and low hu-
niidity, which prevailed for second
consecutive day. were given as the
chief reason for the quick spread
of the flames.
The worst fire conditions were re-
ported to be concentrated in south
ern counties, but woodlands were
burning in other sections of the
State, with at least one fire near
Towson, in Baltimore County, out
of control, the Associated Press re-
ported.
An uncontrolled fire was burning
in a Charles County forest and an
other in st. Marys County.
Bloodhounds Hunt Bugs"
About 200 volunteers yesterday
brought under control large fire
in Fairfax County, Va, near Burkes
Station.
Several fires on the Jefferson Ma
tional Forest, in Southwest Vir-
ginia, in recent days have been OF
incendiary origin and in at least
two instances bloodhounds have
been used in an effort to track down
the "firebugs," it was announced at
the forestry Offices at Roanoke.
w. j. Elliott. administrative as
sistant of the forest, said that two
fires in Smyth County this week
were set by "firebugs" and that
bloodhounds had been used, but in
one instance the area over which
the bug" had travelled was COM
pletely burned, and in the second.
fire-fghters entered over a trail
which had been followed by the
guilty party, thus obiterating all
traces of the man or men.
Commenting on the report Of evi-
dence of inceudsarism, Gov. Dar-
den said at Blacksburg, Va, last
night that he was going to do every
thing I can to convict" those. re-
sponsible for setting the blazes.
