Uncertainty still existed today as to whether it will be possible for the District government to pay an- nuities to approximately 100 public school teachers and pensions to the 614 persons on the police-fire pension roll during the last three months of this fiscal year, in view of the failure of the second deficiency bill. The Commissioners are having a study made of the problem, but have not yet learned whether there is a way out of the difficulty. The Federal Government faces a comparable problem regarding pen- sions of veterans of the Civil and other wars, for which funds to com- plete this fiscal year were in the last deficiency measure.

He was in the drug busi ness at Sixth and G streets many years ago, later becoming a practicing physician and moving to Northeast Washington. He married early in life, and his wife, who was Miss Fannie A. Char- ter of Waterbury, Conn., died in 1919. Dr. Walter, charter member of Northeast Washington Citizens’ Asso- ciation, served as vice president and chairman of. the committees on police and fire departments for several y S. Deeply interested in civic matte attention was directed particularly to those pertaining to the northeast sec- tion, and he devoted much of his time in an effort to obtain needed improvements there. He was especially interested with Evan H. Tucker, president of the as sociation, in the long fight to obtain the Patterson tract for a park for northeast residengs. Dr. Walter served as a member of the board of medical supervisors of the District of Columbia several years. He was a member of Myron M.

S B s S | representing t! FERGUSON APPEAL DENIED IN COURT Higher Tribunal Decides Woman Properly Convicted for Picket- ing Young Men’s Shop. The District Court of Appeals to- day, in an opinion by Justice Robb, denied the appeal of Miss .Dorothy Ferguson for release on habeas corpus following her conviction of violating a police reguiation by walking up and down before the Young Men's Shop announcing that the store was unfair to organized labor. Counsel for the young woman relied on the Clayton act as furnishing immunity from ar- rest for her. The appellate court held that, as Miss Ferguson was properly convicted in Police Court and a writ of error had been denied by the Court of Ap- peals from that conviction, with which the United States Supreme Court de- clined to interfere, a proceeding in habeas corpus could not be used in place of a writ of review. Were it to decide the case on its merits, Jus- tice Robb suggests, the same result would be reached. The protection of the Clayton act does not apply, he points out, because Miss Ferguson was not an employe of the store and did not seek employment there. The section of the act applies only in cases growing out of a dispute concern- ing terms and conditionss of employ- ment between an employer and em- ploye or between persons employed and persons seeking employment, and not to a dispute between an employer and other persons. — ASKS AIR MAIL BIDS.

TO BUY BIG SPRUCE TRAGT New England Forestry Ex- perts Say White Mountain Section Is Last Stand. A plea to the Government to pur- | chase and preserve 22,600 acres of for- est in New Hampshire was made by a delegation of New England forestry experts and business men at a hear- ing before the National Forest Reser- vation Commission in the office of the Forest Service here today. The com- mission took the request under advise- ment. Declaring that the tract, in the White Mountain Forest, contains the last stand of spruce available for Gov- ernment purchase, the delegation, headed by Allen Hollls, president of the Society for Protection of New Hampshire Forests, urged the com- mission to consider the purchase of the tract under provision for cutting of some of the less valuable timber by a private concern. This, it was said, would cost the Government slightly less than $500,000. Mr. Hollis pointed out that the del gation wanted the commission to in- struct the Forest Service to investi- gate the proposal, not to act on it. He said he believed the owners of the land, which is in the township of Waterville, N. H., were willing to ne- gotiate under the proposed terms. Other speakers were W. S.
