VIRGINIA BEACH, Va., August —Grasping at 1 that * result in giving National of the District of Columbia a real home of its own, the official machinery af the militia has started turning the hope of devoloping an_armo out of the proposed central bus ter- minal in Washington. Maj. Gen. Anton Stephan o manding the District militia, he sued instructions to Col. John W. Oehman, commanding the 121st Regi ment of Engineers, also in camp here, to prepare tentative plans, including an estimate of floor space needed, which will be used immediately in starting negotiations for housing the District Guard in a home befitting its dignity as the soldier representativi of the National Capital.

Need Three Stories. While the plans have not definitely taken shape, awaiting reports from the unit commanders and also being dependent on the ideas of ‘those who are promoting the central bus ter- minal, Gen. Stephan said today that it would take at least three stories of a building to handle the local Na tional Guard, one of which would be given over entirely to a drill hall. owever, there seems to be some | States Attorney Rover will oppose the ;| release of the prisoner, and a hear- POOR CONVICT ACT NOVELLY INVOKED Prisoner Sentenced to 180 Days Says 30-Day Term Meets Law. Carl E. Smith, convicted in the United States branch of "Police Court July 8 last ior a first offense of trans- porting liquor and sentenced to ray a fine of $500 or, in default, to serve 180 days, has applied to United States Commissioner Needham C. Turnage for his release from custody. Smith has been in jail 30 days and now in- vokes the provision of section 1042 of the Revised Statutes of the United States, known as the poor convict act. Through Attorney ~W. Bissell Thomas, the prisoner says he is not able to pay the fine and having served 30 days has met the require- ment of the poor convict act and is entitled to release. Assistant United ing is set for Wednesday before the commissioner. Section 1042 provides that where the prisoner is sentenced in a United States court to pay a fine with or without imprisonment, and is_unable to make payment after serving 30 days’ imprisonment he may apply to a United States Commissioner for his release, and after a hearing, at which the United States Attorney may be present and offer objections, the com- missioner may take an affidavit of poverty from the prisoner and make a certificate to that effect to the jailer as authority for the release of the prisoner. The section has been frequently in- voked where a fine was added to the term of the imprisonment and the re- lease given after an additional 30 days of prison life, but the proposition of applying its provisions where an aiter- THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.
