Widespread violations of used car
ceiling prices have been uncovered

BY the Associated Press.
Exhaust and other types of heat
ers which may affect the air OF
passenger carrying buses are pro-
hibited in specifications announced
by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission.
Among types outlawed are those
employing unguarded open flames
and those in which air from the
engine compartment may be carried
into passenger space.
The commission said the order
resulted from an investigation be-
gun early last year when it re-
ceived a number of reports of &C
cidents resulting from faulty heat
ing devices.
A. r. McDougald, superintendent
of equipment for the Capital Transit
Co., said the ruling would not apply
to any of the buses used by the COM
pany, which are heated by means of
the hot water from the cooling sys-
tenn of the motor.

Second Anniversary

Two thousand women Marines at
Henderson Hall, Arlington, Va, will
take a little time out from their
military duties tomorrow, and with
their thousands of sister leather
necks" all over the country and in
Hawaii will celebrate the second
anniversary of the Marine Corps
Women's Reserve.
The Marines here will have an
open house for invited guests at the
hall from to 9 pm. tomorrow, fol-
lowed by dance in the recreation
hall, with music by the Quantico
Marine Band. Earlier they will hear
a half-hour broadcast saluting their

Keep Step With Men.
It was only month after the
marines had ended organized enemy
opposition on Gxadalcanal that the
first officer candidates reported for
training at Northampton, Mass, and
the first contingent Of enlisted per-
sonnel arrived for indoctrination at
Hunter College, New York City.
AS the marines in the Pacific
landed on New Georgia, Bougain-
vile, Tarawa, Rabaul, their sisters
in the service were taking over more
and more duties, freeing more and
more men from jobs behind desks
and steering wheels and machines.
They climbed into military trucks
and learned to handle the mechanics
as well as the driving. They learned
to fold parachutes, send and re-
ceive radio messages, teach navi-
cation to. bomber crews, load sup
plies-every duty that marine did,
except that of actual fighting, the
women marines learned.
Wide Field of Service.
They are clerks and tyists, tele-
type operators, cashiers, file clerks
They handle mail, drive jeepS, re-
pair aircraft engines and instruct
combat creWmen in aerial gunnery.
Aerial photographers, darkroom
technicians, welders, painters, tele-
phone operators, librarians, chem
lists, electricians, craftsmen, sales
clerks-women marines are all of
these.
Looking to their time of service
until six months after the "dura-
tion," the women marines hope for
more members to replace more
marines for duty overseas. A re-
cruiting drive among women be-
tween 20 and 80 is on now, and
information about the service is
available here at the marine in
duction and recruiting station, 1400

Warm Weather Draws
Thousands Outdoors;

least two days more, the Weather

kind Of days that lured thousands
of persons outdoors yesterday.
1t looked like spring on the streets
yesterday. Women on the avenues
wore their fower-bedecked spring
hats and there were many in pastel
spring suits.
More than 100000 persons strolled
in the District parks and although
the ground still was too damp for
sitting, the benches were full all
day, despite the leaf1ess trees and
brown grass, park police said.
There were softball games on the
Lincoln Monument grounds and
several thousand persons crowded
around the soccer game between
two groups OF British soldiers on
the Ellipse. At the Lincoln Mu-
scum and the home where Lincoln
died the crowds broke all-time rec
ords. The 1886 persons who visited
the museum in the old Ford Theater
was the largest there since the night
Lincoln was shot 80 years ago, Of

This evening at o'clock at St.
Johns Episcopal church, Third
and Red Cross streets, a most
beautiful and impressive service
known as the Feast of Lights"
will be given.
The age-old meaning of Epiphany
will be told through the Old Tes-
lament prophecy of the birth of
Christ, Mary's song of triumph at
the message of the angel Gabriel,
the gifts of the Magi and finally
the aged Simeon's prayer of
Thanksgiving in these words,
Lord now lettest thou thy servant
depart in peace As the Epiphany
story further unfolds the real mis-
sionary meaning is brought out by
the spreading of Christianity from
person to person as the darkened
church breaks into light from hun
dreds of candles. Music forms a
beautiful background for this SER
vice, although no attempt has been
made for anything of an elaborate
