C.&O. Designs New Type Train
With Speeds Up 10 | 5OM.P.H.

Speeds up to $50 miles an hour
providing greater safety and COM
fort for passengers, win be attained
by a radically new design train now
in the planning stage at Chesapeake
81 Ohio Railways research depart
ment.
Called the greatest departure
from conventional design since the
days of George Pullman, the train
will weigh only one-quarter as much
per passenger as present day trains.
The entire train will operate as
a single unit. doing away with the
present system by which most
trains use interchangeable cars. The
additional speed and safety will be
attained by lowering the center Of
gravity and employing trucks util-
izinz the principle Of roller coasters.
There will be a single pair of
wheels at the rear of each car, with
the forward support to be furnished
by coupling to a preceding car. Cars
will be about 81 feet shorter than
covertible models, floors ~ feet
nearer the rails and roofs three feet
lower.
Standard 36-inch railway car
wheels will be replaced by 28-inch

Arabs Will Continue
Palestine Struggle
BY she Associoted Press

CAIRO, Mar. 22.-An Arab League
statement !, declared today the
Leagues intention to continue the
struggle in Palestine and the Arab
world until what it called demo-
cratic principles prevail.
The statement was prepared for
delivery at Damascus by Abdel
Rahman Azzaam Pasha, secretary
general. in celebration of the third
anniversary OF the Leagues found
ing. "'6 - N'"
Azzam Pssha said the struggle
will continue in both least and
west" of the Arab sphere. He did
not specify the exact area. The
league has been advocating inde-
pendence for northwest African
countries under French and Span
ish rule and the former Italian
colony of Libya. 1t also has de-
manded the end of foreign influence
in the seven Arab league states.
The secretary general said the
league had enjoyed its greatest vic
tory in the abandonment of the
Palestine partition plan by Its
strongest supporters"-the United
States.
THE partition plan was destroyed
after the whole world was convinced
that the Palestine Arabs and the
entire Arab world will not give up
their rights without shedding blood
for them" the statement said.

wheels using rubber centers. The
center Of gravity will be lowered by
10 inches, permitting nearly double
present speeds even on curves. The
cars also will be about six inches
wider.
Kenneth A. Browne, research con-
sultant heading the project, decided
the only way to defeat the system
OF interchanging cars with other
rilroads would be to design a train
that would operate as a unit.
Part OF his problem was to find a
substitute for placing refrigerator
units. compressors. batteries and like
gear beneath the cars. He found the
answer in afiixing these units to the
locomotive and piping water. elec-
tricity. heat and air conditioning
throughout the train. Thus when
cars are coupled, they automatically
connect water lines, air holes, cleo
trical circuits, and the like.
Several new type locomotives are
under consideration, but it is ex-
pected that some forms of gas
turbine will pull the train, which
will attain a speed Of 80 miles per
hour from standing position in
four minutes.

Detective Sergts. E. P. Hallman
and H. H. McQuinn, both colored,
were part of a 10-man squad ap-
pointed to break" the case follow
ing yesterdays second mysterious
shooting.
Signed Confession Reported.
Entering Carraway's room, they
found .38-caliber pistol, contain
ing one exploded shell and box Of
cartridges with % shells missing.
The gun was hidden behind radia-
tor below the window.
Police said Carraway signed q
statement admitting the shootings
and told them he had fired toward
groups of people at least five times.
He did not want to hit anybody, but
only frighten them by shooting "be-
twixt" them, police quoted him as
saying.
The window OF Carraways room
is so feet above the ground and SO
feet from the point where the VIC
Tins were standing.
Carraway told them he had often
fired at other objects, such as a
nearby lumber yard, and that he
bought the gun for So from a
stranger in a Seventh street pool
room six months ago, police said.
Detectives Hidden in Room.
The arresting detectives hid in
Carraway's room after another ten
ant reported hearing noise like a
"backf1re" coming from there. Other
policemen were planted" in other
strategic locations, including the
lumber yard, with orders to remain
on the job until they arrested the
"sniper."
The Salvation Army rooming
house is situated on the northeast
corner of the intersection and Car
raway's room was the last from the
corner. Eight windows separated
his and the corner room.
Both victims were standing at the
northeast corner. Until week ago,
the corner was bus stop. 1t has
been temporarily abandoned during
a re-routing of buses because of the
Dupont Circle underpass construc-
ton work. ~ TuIcr
Police believed Carraway could
not hear street corner conversation
from his room, were certain he was
not acquainted with either of the
victims.
Maj. Maurice Smith, assistant
manager. at the rooming house, said
Carraway moved into his room
about eight months ago. using the
name of William T. Brown.
He had noted nothing suspicious
about the mans actions except that
about five months ago he changed
the lock on his room without noti-
flying the management.
Maj. Smith said the rooms rented
for Sc a week or 80 cents a night
and that Carraway did not pay by
the week, but every few days. He
was quiet and appeared to work
fairly steadily, Maj. Smith said.
Caraway also was charged with

assault with a dangerous weapon in
yesterdays shooting. He was to ap-
pear at a coroner's inquest in the
Milo death at noon today. Police
said a man by the same name was
arrested here for disorderly conduct
in 1943.
They did not seek to link Cara
way with another "sniper" shooting
last Friday in which Edward M.
Brodie, 3209 Morrison street NV,
was wounded in the chin at the
corner of Sixteenth street and Co.
lumbia road. Police believe a small
pellet. probably a BIB, hit Mr. Brodie.

On the recommendation of the

against Mrs. Francisco Guada, So
year-old Filipino registered nurse,
were dismissed last Thursday. Mrs.
Guada was accused of assisting DR.
James M Unosawa, in an illegal
operation which resulted in the

girl on Dec. 1, 1945.
Presiding Superior Judge James

to obtain a conviction on the
charges
The japanese physician was con-
victed by a Superior Court jury of
abortion and manslaughter, and

degree murder. The manslaughter
conviction was set aside by the Su-
preme court on an appeal, and DR.
Unosawa was sentenced to five
years in prison on the abortion con-
viction.
