Warrant Denied
Man Plagued by
Telephone Calls
BY The Associated Press

BALTIMORE, Sept. l. Harry
Hoffman's hopes of restoring peace
to his plagued household have been
dealt a severe blow.
The Hoffman home has been be-
sieged by numerous telephone calls,
made late at night and early in the
morning by anonymous persons.
Mr.. Hoffman said his wife de-
cided to leave home after an "un-
dertaker" called. asking her what
she wanted done with her husbands
body"
In an effort to put an end to the
annoying comedy, Mr.. Hoffman ap.
peared before Magistrate Vincent L.
Palmisano Saturday to have war
rant issued for a man he felt was
responsible for the calls.
He described the man as one he
had thrown out of his tavern some
time ago and said he recognized
him by his voice.
But the magistrate ruled that q
man cannot be identified by his
voice alone and refused to issue the
warrant.

He also has an autograph collec-
ton containing more than 600
names. Most valuable autograph,
he thinks, is that of William Penn,
on an old deed.
He's missing the signatures OF six
presidents, Washington, John Adams,
Jefferson, Taylor, Pierce and Fill
more.
Sea Shells and Rocks.
Also in his collection are vast
number of sea shells and rocks, in
cluding the heads of Indian toma-
hawks
In other parts of the house a
visitor can also find antique rifles
and swords, a World War I demoli-
ton bomb, a wooden sausage grinder,
a Korean lamp, stamps, boomerangs
from Australia, stone with wave
ripples petrihed in it, and a 5000
year-old Babylonian clay tablet,
different from the one for which he
paid $35.
A native of Indiana, Mr.. Kumler
came to Kensington Al years ago.
He was employed by the Civil Serv-
ice Commission until his retirement
10 years ago. One of his hobbies is
public affairs-he has been town
clerk for nine years.

holiday" today from their special
traffic drive as the community's
campaign against traffic violators
went into its second week.
The police will not concentrate on
any one particular location as they

directing the heavy traffic on the
Washington Baltimore boulevard,
Hyattsville's main thoroughfare. The
drive will be resumed tomorrow with
watchful eye on speeders on Forty

THE campaign, which has re-

"One thing we are not doing"
Chief Holmes said, "is to set up a
speed trap. Our men are right out
in the open where you can see
them"

AAF Reveals Radio Contact
With B-2os LEAVING Tokyo

The Army Air Forces disclosed
last night that its headquarters was
in continuous radio communication
with an eight-plane squadron of
Super Fortresses within 40 minutes
after the aircraft left the ground
at Tokyo.
This ultra-long range communica-
ton was maintained throughout the

equipment, utilizing a directional
beam kept pointed at the flight of

RICHMOND, Va, Sept. 1.-The

veterans faster service at WAA sales
centers.
Regional Director J. M. Armstrong
said WAA had changed its sales pro-
cedure and that veterans of World

erty without a presale certification.
Under the new setup, veterans
simply will be asked for proof of
honorable service in the armed
forces and to attest to a statement
concerning the use of the property.
Under old regulations, veterans
were required to be certified at q
regional or district office before at

Good Weather Gives
DC. ResidentsC Chance
To Enjoy Labor Day

Good weather gave stay-at-homes
an excuse to get outdoors today
while thousands of other Washing
ton residents were winding up their
holiday week end at beaches and
resorts.
The District, over Sunday, was
free of fatal accidents, but Mary
land already has counted six dead
and Virginia four from traffic and
other accidents.
Picnics, boating, outdoor sports
and just plain loafing featured the
day for those who chose to avoid
the Labor Day rush and spend a
quiet holiday at home. The down.
town streets were almost deserted
as practically all business was sus-
pended.
Although hotels were filled with
visitors crowding the traditional
Labor Day vacation deadline, the
city was 6lieter than on the aver
age Sunday. The city's spots of
interest were being visited on about
the same scale as the usual week
end.
Transportation facilities, released
from the strain of the Friday
night and Saturday getaway rush,
were running normally today, But
the railroads, airlines and buslines
were lining up extra sections for an
other outburst tonight.
One of the Districts few rains
during August, AZ of an inch falling
for an hour last night, brought re-
lief from heat reaching 81 degrees at
4:10 pm. yesterday. Despite the
shower, August's rainfall measured
only 1.81 inches and was 2.20 inches
below normal for the month.
Partly cloudy skies were expected
to help keep the temperature down
to 88 degrees today. Widely scat
tered showers expected in Virginia
were expected to miss the District.
The mercury should drop to TO to-
night, the Weather Bureau said. :.
A low pressure area moving in
from the Midwest may shoot the
temperature up to 80 degrees tomor-
row. But in its wake the Weather
Bureau sees a better measure OF
rain than has fallen recently, reach
ing the District Tuesday night or
Wednesday, and cooling things con-
siderably.
The churches yesterday took cog
nizance of the holiday to emphasize
the need for better labor relations.

Theory Changing.
The Nebraska authorities ap.
peared to be veering away from the
assumption that the Mays were
slain by two men dressed in Army
uniforms whom they were believed
to have given ride at Grand Is
land, Nebr., $50 miles west of Omaha.
Detective Chief Fred Franks of
the Omaha police said he thought it
unlikely the couple had completed
a 400-mile trip from Englewood,
Colo, where they left at $50 am.
Wednesday, by pm. the same day,
the time filling station attendant
thought he saw the hitchhikers
climb into their car.

having a chicken dinner with an
other man about l0:30 pm. We'd
