Cabs Showed Under
By Big Demand;
Callers Wait Hours

You weren't the only one who
waited in vain for a cab at your
door. this morning.
Cab companies unanimously
reported they couldn't fill any,
where near all the orders. They
gave these reasons, among
others:
l. Some cab drivers took one
look at the weather, rolled over
and went back to sleep. They
were in the minority.
2. Some drivers started work.
ing. crawled and Skidded for an
hour or so, and went back home.
They, too. were in the minority.
8. Some cab drivers, equipped
with snow tires or chains, had
to go into streets where motorists
had feared to venture out. Re-
sult-they got stuck.
4. Traffic moved so slowly that
the usual trip took two or three
times as long, with the result
that orders piled up. This was
the reason given most frequently
by harassed dispatchers.
AS early as $50 am. cab COM
panies were warning callers they
would have to wait at least half
an hour. BY 8 am. this had
changed to IAN hours delay" or
IAN indefinite delay"
One dispatcher said callers
were using every excuse in the
book to get a cab. They said
they had to get to a hospital or
catch train. This did them no
good. Since the dispatcher
didn't know when he could pro-
vide a cab, he took no "emer-
gency" calls.
Another dispatcher said peo-
pile would call and then decline
a cab when they heard they
would have to wait an hour.
Then, he said, they would call
back and say all the other CT ~
panies said the same thing and

The commissioners last night
invoked their emergency snow
removal regulations on Sc main
streets throughout the District.
Under the regulations motorists
on the streets may be arrested
for using these streets if their
cars impede traffic and do not
have chains or snow tires.
The streets are marked by a
broad yellow band painted around
street lighting standards at the
beginning of each block.
The emergency regulations
were invoked at 9:45 o'clock last
night, about two hours after the
beginning of the snowfall. They
will stay in effect until the Com
missioners believe the streets are
free enough of snow and ice to
allow smooth traffic flow.
Motorists arrested under the
terms Of the regulations are sub
ject to fines.

Xanten' S Battle Hard:
HoIyMess,' He Says;
More Troubles Due

Sanitation Supt. william A
Xanten was fighting a tough bat
tie against the snow today. and
he predicted more troubles to
come.
The District called in contract
help last night for the first time
since the provision has been part
OF the three-year-old snow plan.
Mr.. Xanten's headaches came
from inexperienced crews oper-
ating the plows, the quality of
the SnowStorm, and delays in
getting out the equipment Sun
day night.
This is going to be a bad
one. a holy mess" predicted the
sanitation superintendent this
morning. I've seen it before"
Experience Denied Crews.
One trouble is that such storms
come so infrequently that the
crews do not get experience in
coping with them.
And the present storm, said
Mr., Xanten, is not an ideal train
ing ground. Early sleet formed
a hard base for the snow and a
predicted cold spell promised to
prolong the icy problem.
At 6 pm. yesterday, before the
snow fell, the District started
loading sand. BY 9 am. today
some 5000 tons of sand had been
put down. Mr.. Xanten antici-
pated another 5000 would be
used.
Scrapers were ordered out. be-
ginning at ii pm. Ninety CITY,
owned scrapers were mostly out
by 4 am. The rs scrapers under
private contract were ordered
out at the same time. but not
all were on duty by am. All
were working by 9 am.
Main Hauling Job Tonight.
In addition. 1876 trucks were
sanding and hauling snow. but
Mr.. Xanten said the main haul
ing job would not be done until
tonight, so as not to hold up
traffic.
Unlike the snow experience of
last November, which was fol-
lowed by sunshine and fast dis
appearance of the fall, the pres
ent snowfall promised to stay
around for while.
Mr.. Xanten faced a problem
of having no replacement crews.
Men who have been on the job
since midnight probably will
have to stay on. with a minimum
amount Of rest.
Spreading of salt to melt the
snow must be kept to a minimum
here, Mr.. Xanten said, because
of the danger of short circuting
the underground third rail and
possible damage to streets.

Fairfax Slayer
Asked God 10
Forgive Him
BIood-Stoined Note
Found on Body Of
Killer Of z Women

A note asking Gods forgive
ness was found on the bullet
riddled body of 34-year-old Wal
ter S. Clark, who killed two
women and wounded three men
in Fairfax County Saturday be-
fore he was felled by police fire.
The note was found in the
deadman's topcoat pocket. It
was stained with the blood from
many bullet holes in his body.
Fairfax Detective David Eike
said the note read:
81 hope God will forgive me,
someday. but I loved her so
much. and she loved me but
everybody was In the way.
Notice please some good FBI
agents investigate Judge Fitz-
gerald in Fairfax. He caused
this tragedy too.
Mr.. Moore, william Brown
hit your cab Ak him.
Darling. I'll be with you some
place"
Police said Clark probably
wrote the note while hiding in
the abandoned chicken shed
where a police posse found him
and shot him to death.
Shotgun Used in Sayings.
Clark. armed with a shotgun.
had killed Mrs. Lorraine Schultz,
IS, Of Old Telegraph road. Fair
fax County, and her mother.
Mrs. Edna Belle Brown, ~.
He wounded Herman j.
Schultz. 81, husband of the
younger dead woman. and her
brother, who is the William
Brown mentioned in the note.
After the mass shooting, a
posse led by police searched
the area for Clark. He was
found by Fairfax Detective Dem
mis- O'Neil in the old chicken
house.
Clark fired, wounding Detec-
tive O'Neil in the shoulder.

He often followed her and in

said, although Mrs. Schultz de-
MED that at a court hearing six
months ago.

of Clark's first attempt to shoot !
up the Schultz family. police
said.
Mr.. and Mrs. Schultz told
police that Clark fired on them
from ambush near their home.
and cut the tires of their auto |
mobile. They got a warrant for
him.
Pleaded Guilty to Assault.
The case was heard by Judge
Robert C. Fitzgerald. in Fairfax
Trial Justice Court. He recalled
that Clark pleaded guilty to an
assault charge which was re-
duced from an attempted murder
charge. Judge Fitzgerald said
he fined Clark $100 and gave him
q suspended jail sentence with
instructions to stay away from
the Schultzes.
Police theorized that Clark's
anger at Judge Fitzgerald was
caused by the instructions to
leave Mr.. and Mrs. Schultz alone.
Mr.. Brown was treated and re-
leased, but had to return to the
hospital because his severely
wounded foot would not stop
bleeding.
Detective O'Neil also is still
hospitalized with a shotgun
wound in the upper arm and
shoulder. The hospital today
said his condition was good.
Police said they spoke with
relatives of Clark yesterday and
were advised that the dead kill
er's family bore police no i'll will.
Clark. a bachelor. lived in Alex
andria. His parents lived in the
TOO block of South Fairfax street
and he frequently stayed with
them.
Police said the Mr.. Moore men,

of the taxicab and reported that
