Home Building Here Hits New Record for Month

This years March construction
hit new all-time high for that
month, the Bureau of Labor Sta
tistics reported today.
Washington area builders put
under construction a total of l 800
new dwelling units, of which l,670
were new one-family units and
800 were apartment units.
The 1910 one-family homes
represented a gain of II per cent
above the 1910 homes started in
the area during March, 1850
formerly the highest March on
record.
The March total of single fam
lily homes exceeded the previous
months 1,130 units by 48 per cent.
However, apartment units con-
tinued at lower level than in
1850 despite a seasonal March in
crease.
The total of all units started
during the month exactly equalled
the number started in March a.
year ago.
March apartment production
was at the lowest ebb since 1916,
when the same number-320
units-were started.
Data for the first quarter of
1881 indicate that 4,140 single
family homes were started in the
Washington area, 10 per cent
more than had been started dur
ing the first three months of 1885,"
BIS said. ''The total of all types
of dwelling units put under con-
struction declined by 9 per cent
to reach level of 1890 units. /
This drop reflects the lessened
activity in construction of apart
ment units which were responsible
for 400 units in the first quarter
of 1850, but for only $50 units
during the same months of 1851"
Average construction cost of |.
new one-family houses started
between January and March was
$12, 800, $500 more than during
the last quarter of 1850, and ST.
700 higher than those for which
construction began during the
first three months of 1850.
8 Figures for the last two years
show a rising trend, with an aver
age increase of about S400 per ]
quarter, BIS said. The current
level is the highest on record for
this area.

orphanage, he called on me, pos
ing as my uncle. and it was then
that we made the arrangements
for my escape"
Mrs. Harriet Fields, whom the

lished claims to half the estate

Unpaid Aide Learns
Hazards Of SIeuthinq

The unpaid aide of Private Eye
Perry Bonner had a real pepper
pepper to launch his sleuthing
career, but he has decided that
selling cemetery lots is more
peaceful and less costly.
Harry Edwin Hinken, 26, of
S5O7 Old Bladensburg road, the
cemetery salesman, accompanied
Detective Bonner on an evidence
gathering foray early yesterday
for an Army colonel who doubted
his wife's fidelity.
At Fort Myer they found the
wife, a Navy commander and the
evidence they sought, but the irate
wife rammed Mr.. BonnerS car
and took off with Mr.. dinken in
hot pursuit.
It didn't see her hit Bonner

heard the crash and I heard the
military policeman yelling. 1 fol-
lowed her blowing my horn SO
the police might stop us and l
could tell them about the hit
and-run at Fort Myer."
The woman stopped suddenly
of her own accord, out it was the
Golden Egg gift shop at 1922
Wisconsin avenue NV, which
stopped Mr.. Hinken.
After his car plunged INTO the
gift shop window, MI. Hinken
went to Georgetown University
Hospital for first aid, dropped
past the 7th Precinct to pay SIS
for unreasonable speed, look over
his badly-damaged car and the
shop.
The suspect commander faded
out of the car and the action at
Fort Myer. Mr.. Bonner returned
to placate the believing military
police and the colonel returned

Costello Free on Bail
After Nof-Gui|ty Plea
On Contempt Charge
By the Associofed Press

NEW YORK. July 26.-Frank
Costello, reputed king of the un-
derworld, was free on $4,000 bail
today after pleading not guilty to
charges of contempt of the SEN
ate.
Imprisoned gamblers Joe AdoniS
and Frank Erickson, also indicted
yesterday by Federal grand jury
for allegedly defying the Senate
Crime Committee, will be ar
raigned today or tomorrow.
After the jury handed up the
indictments, Costello hoped
subway to the Federal Courthouse
to give himself up before Federal
Judge John F. x. McGohey.
Fingerprinted in the United
States marshalS Office, Costello,
who admitted he served several
months in prison in 1917 for
illegally carrying a gun, asked,
What have they got against me
noW?"
Spends 40 Minutes in Cell.
The indictments against the trio
of underworld characters resulted
from their refusal to answer queS-
tions put to them by the Senate
Crime Committee during its tele-
vised hearings here last March.
Costello was named in a nine
count indictment, Adonis> in Is
and Erickson in IA. The top pen
atty on each count is one year in
Jail and $1,000 fine.
The 60-year-old Costello spent
40 minutes in a cell before bond
was arranged and he was released
in custody of his attorney, George
Wolf.
AS they left the Federal build ,
ing, the bigtime gambler refused
to talk to newsmen but Mr.. Wolf
said:
He (CoStello) is worried about
the heat. I'm talking about the
temperature, not the indictment. |"
Admits Heading BoOkie Ring.
Costello, the 49year-old Adonis
and the 54-year-old Erickson all
baked at answering numerous
questions asked by the crime COM
mittee members. Each maintained
silence on certain queries on the
grounds that they might tend to
incrlminate themselves.
Adonis now is serving two to
three years in a New Jersey prison
on gambling charges.
Erickson, who admitted heading
a $12.5 million-a-year bookie ring,
is serving a two-year gambling
sentence on Rikers Island Peni-
tentiary here.
The Senate committee called
Costello tie kingpin of Nation
wide crime syndicate. Costello de-
MED this, although admitting he
has been a gambler and bootleg
ger. Linked with powerful politi-
cal figures N New York City, Co.'S
tello contends he couldn't even
fix a traffic ticket.
AdoniS, known for years as an
associate of Costello and Erickson,
also has been mentioned in con-
nection with Brooklyn's defunct
Murder, Inc, the murder-for-
mob.
