Incidentally. these wolves on

That's why a girl who has to
get it out of her system is smarter
if she goes to the big city on a

split with the family. If and
when she finds out that the big
town is not for her, she can come
home without feeling ashamed OF
defeated.
If she finds a job which makes
her happy. and her living condi-

to stay. But the poor girl who

Man Carrying Bullet
In Brain Since 'BDies

An autopsy was to be per-
formed today to determine whe-
ther a bullet which he carried in
his brain for Is years killed
Charles w. Hopkins.
Mr.. Hopkins, A, a postal clerk,
collapsed and died yesterday as
he walked in the 1400 block OF
Minnesota avenue, Sc. He lived
at 1911 Seventeenth street Sc.
Relatives said the bullet from
an old pistol was accidentally
fired into his forehead when he
was 10 years old. Subsequent x
rays showed it had penetrated
the brain too far for surgery, they
added.
He apparently suffered no i'll
effects from the wound, they said,
although he underwent a brain
operation about IL years ago.

Park Service Seeking
Funds in Congress 10
Build New D. C.PooIs

The National Park Service is
seeking congressional authority
for the construction OF two or more
additional public swimming pools
for Washington, Associate Direc-
tor A. E. Demaray said today.
Interior Secretary Chapman an
nounced yesterday that all six of
Washington's public swimming
pools will reopen for the outdoor
season on non-segregated basis.
The Interior Department will con-
tinue to operate pools on Federal
park areas, it was pointed out, I'M
til arrangements can be made with
the District Recreation Board to
take over on terms satisfactory to
the department.
Budget Bureau Gets Request.
MIR. Demaray said a request for
additional pools has been sub
mitted to the Budget Bureau. Al
though no action has been taken
on it yet, he hopes funds will be
included in the Presidents budget
program. Unless budget approval
is obtained this spring, it is a fore
gone conclusion Congress will re-
fuse the authority sought.
Through the National Capital
Parks office. an attempt was made
last year to get a pool for Stanton
Park, but the request was turned
down.
'We are still trying to work out
an arrangement with the District
Recreation Board to operate the
public pools on a non-segregated
basis" he explained.
Policy Notice Spread.
Meanwhile. park officials are
trying to get word around to all
citizens groups interested in the
pools, so there will be no misun-
Outstanding of policy affecting
their use. So long as the pools
are maintained on Federal land
MIR. Demaray said, the Interior
Department cannot say that white
and colored should use them
separately.
MIR. Demaray said the racial
disorders of last summer at the
Anacostia and Mckinley pools was
caused largely by the inadequacy
of public bathing facilities.
He believes the additional pools
| If authorized, would relieve the
pressure on both white and coloreo
groups. SO that where there Is
mixed bathing it would be more OF
less voluntary.

The Hollywood star pointed out
that youthful drivers actually
have better ref1exes than their
elders.
Safety in itself is not a very
exciting subject" he said. "Only

pressed sufficiently on our young

lessness is, after all, stupid and
wasteful.

7 Plans 10 Increase
Bus Service Southeast
Weighed by PUG

The Public Utilities Commission
today has under consideration two
proposals to increase bus service
from Southeast Washington and
nearby Maryland to the down.
town area.
Public hearings were completed
at the District Building yesterday
on these proposals:
Establishment of new rush.
hour. extra fare express bus line
between Anacostia and downtown
Washington by the Capital Tran
sit Co.
Extension of the Washington,
Marlboro and Annapolis Motor
Lines, Inc. Oxon Hill bus line
from South Capitol and Atlantic
streets to Eleventh street and
Pennsylvania avenue NV.
Would Use New Bridge.
Both lines would be operated
over the new South Capitol street
bridge. w. M. g. A. also wants to
reroute part of its Suitland ex-
press service and all North Beach
bus service from the District line
in order to go over the new bridge.
Capital Transit asked in its
proposal that it be permitted to
add 5 cents to regular fares for
the new line, to be known as Route
A-9, South Capitol Street Express
1t would run from Tenth street
and Pennsylvania avenue NV. to
the street loop at Livingston
Manor and back.
Decision on the w. M. & A. pro-
posals will await submission of
briefs by the Capital Transit Co.,
which has contended the Oxon
Hill line extension would enable
w. M. & A. to divert passengers
now using Capital Transit lines to
and from the transfer point neal
Atlantic and South Capitol streets
| During the hearing, Roy A
Chew. traffic manager of w. M
& A., testified there was sud.
den drop in service on the Oxor
Hill line in November, 1913, which
he attributed to the fare increase
granted Capital Transit.
4 Cites Lower Rate.
This brought the joint fare fol
passengers travelling downtown
from 20 to % cents, or a toker
and 10 cents.
Mr.. Chew said his company nov
is proposing to do the same jot
for Is cents"
Residents of the Glass Manor
apartment development in Primo,

Heights appeared to support tn,
w. M. g. A. proposal, complain.
ing that present bus service Ii
the area is insufficient and incon.
venient.
Il Mrs. Edward B. Morris, presi.
dent of the Fort Davis Citizens
