ACTING at thes direction of
Corporation Counsel Benjamin S.
Adamowski's office, Oscar E. He
witt, Public Works Commissioner,
last Saturday moved to clear city
streets of furniture of evicted fam

Two despairing families, who
had been evicted and were civ
ing" in the sweltering streets be-
cause they had nowhere to go,
received notices from Hewitt, de-
hvered by police, warning them
their furniture constituted "an
obstruction. They were given
six short hours to move their be-
longings.
Their only alternative was this:
their furniture would be moved
forcibly to a public works dump
yard, and the families would face
stiff fines, plus costs of the NOV
ing.
OSCAR Wehrmaster and his
family were already trucking their
furniture Away from 4423 Went

2:30 pm. Saturday afternoon.
Mrs. Katherine Bolden and her

days. They had nowhere TO 60.
No public shelter could be found
even for the children.
MRS. BoLDEN had nowhere to

helped her to move her furniture !
from the sidewalk.
Interviewed by The Chicago

These people may not have
any place TO 60, but they can't
use the streets as a public re-
positorY."
AdamowsEi said he had direct |

pointing out that the city would
be liable in lawsuits should any
one be injured by falling or trip

Although no statutes were I'M
covered concerning the moral in

THE ORDINANCE further pro-

fine of $40 plus the costs incurred
by the city in removing it.
Section 34-2 reads:

Secretary Of State and Mrs, Mar

Washington. The distinguished
general and his wife have taken
Mrs. Price Whitaker's apartment at
24oo Sixteenth street while the lat
ter is in Paris. Furnished in ex-
quisite taste, it will be an ideal in
town fiat for the Marshalls when
it is not convenient for them to
drive down to Dodona Manor, their
estate in Leesburg.
Mrs. Whitaker went abroad to
visit her beautiful daughter, Kitty
whose husband, Elisha Dyer, was
recently ordered to our Embassy in
Paris. According to all reports,
Kitty is just as goodlooking today
as when she made her bow to Cap
ital society in the late twenties.
Washingtonians remember that her
debut took place one day and her
engagement was announced the
next.

gayety that's been going on since
the beginning of the London season
The attractive Parker trio will
land practically on the doorstep
of the handsome buff -colored home
overlooking Hyde Park. They will
return to the United States in the
usual style, but just for the fun OF
it they are going over on freighter
the American Scout, that will steam
right up the Thames and dock at
London. It will be something of an
adventure for Mrs. Parker, who has
crossed the ocean every other way
to travel on a 9-day boat that takes
only to u passengers.
In August they will visit friends
in Normandy, then on to Paris and
down to San Juan de Luz, the chic

cay. They'll go back to England
before returning home in Septem-
