Single tickets for the charity ball, | Inauguration day, to be held at the ‘Washington Auditorium the evening of | March 4, will cost $10 and couples will be admitted at a price of $15, the in-| augural committee announced today. Although President-elect Hoover will not attend the ball, which is being ar- ranged by a committee headed by Mrs. John Allan Dougherty, the affair other- wise has all the aspects of an inau- gural ball. It has been recognized by the inaugural committee as the official ball of the inaugural period and the net proceeds will go to charity. Insur- ance funds of the Fire and Police De- partments will benefit to the extent of $5.000 each from the proceeds of the ball. Another general meeting of commit- tee chairmen has been called by Lieut. | Col. U. S. Grant, 3d, chairman of the | inaugural committee, for tomorrow aft- ernoon at 4:30 o'clock at the New Wil- lard Hotel. At this meeting the prices to be charged for grandstand admis- to be fixed and further details of the reception to State governors arranged. Roland S. Robbins, in charge of sale and distribution of tickets for the char- ity ball, will open offices in the Trans- portation Building tomorrow. Committee Work Increasing. The business of the inaugural com- mittee has so increased and the volume of mail is reaching such proportions that a spread of the centers of activity has been made necessary. In addition to general headquarters in the Grid- iron room of the Willard, quarters have been established in room 121 of the Willard for the committee on housing and hospitality, in the Transportation uilding for the ball committee and n the Second National Bank Building for the committee on reception to gov- ernors and the entertainment commit- tee, which were to be opened today. The personnel of the committee on medical aid and emergency arrange- ments, headed by Gen. John A. John- ston, was announced today. Dr. Wil- liam Earl Clark is chairman of the medical committee. In charge of Red Cross first aid stations, whose locations will be announced later, are Capt. Guy B. Denit, Medical Corps, U. S. A.; G. L. Collins, public health officer, Post Of- fice Department; Comdr. G. W. Calver, Medical Corps, U. 8. N., and Dr. Edward J. Schwartz, District Public Health De- partment. These doctors, assisted by internes and nurses, will be stationed at several points throughout the city for emergency protection during the parade and at other places where con- gestion will exist. Confusion in Listing Rooms Noted. Confusion which may exist because some persons have registered rooms with the houstg and entertainment with other agemcies should not exist, of the committee, declared today. Those persons who have listed their rooms with two or more agencies should notify Mrs Speel at the Willard, so her inspectors need not make useless journeys, she said. Mrs. Speel added that Republican national committee members in every State and chairmen and vice chairmen have been furnished with housing data concerning accom- modations in Washington during the modations made to members of Con- gress are being handled by Marshall W. Pickering. Andrew May, president of .:he ‘White lousey Photographers’ Association, named the following to aid him in ar- 1¢ the ugural: Following & custom established at the Coolidge inaugural, 10 veterans of the Civil War will form a guard of honor inaugural parade, following the new President and Vice President in auto- ‘mobiles.

Two hundred special policemen will be brought here from Baltimore and else- where to aid the local police force in handling the crowds. The plan for the inauguration this year differs from that formed policemen have not been brought from other cities in the past. Many citizens of Washington have been em- powered to perform special police duties during the inaugural period in other years, but Maj. Hesse is said to hold that any situation may be better han- dled by uniformed men than by civilians not in uniform. SCHOTTER DENIED “HIT-RUN” REWARD Commissioners to Commend Him for Capture of Driver in Luitich Death. Motor Cycle Policeman W. A. Schot- ter of the Traffic Bureau will be com- mended for his pursuit and capture of a driver alleged to have killed John P. Luitich at North Capitol and P streets January 4, but he will not be allowed to accept the $100 reward offered him for his feat by the American Automo- bile Association, the District Commis- sioners decided yesterday. The city heads’ decision was based on a recommendation by Maj. Edwin B. Hesse, superintendent of police, who reported that Schotter himself felt that in making the pursuit and arrest he was only doing what he was pald for and what he normally would be expected to do in routine police duty. “There is hardly a day passes,” Maj. Hesse wrote, “that some of our motor cycle officers do not take the same risk, or even greater than Schotter took on this occasion Maj.

Arlington County police stationed at t] two principal bridges over which Vir- ginia residents reach Washington this |§ morning hailed 132 motorists, 129 of | whom were charged with using improper | ¥ licenses, including the illegal use of Dis- trict of Columbia tags. Of this number, 125 were held to be not flagrant violations and were notified | to be in Police Court at the Arlington Courthouse tomorrow morning. Nine persons were ushered before Po- lice Judge Harry Thomas this morning. One of these, A. H.

Franklin 2922 Because of the uncertainties of its actual position, as partially represented on a map accompanying the 1877 award, the governors of the two States have caused the entire line to be drawn || on a map by Edward B. Mathews, Maryland State geologist, and Wilbur A. Nelson, Virginia State geologist, in accordance with the' judgment of that award. The bill introduced last night pro- vides that the line as laid down be approved as a just and fair expression | of the 1877 award, and accepted as the true representation of the line. It also provides that when ratified by both States, the Governor of Maryland is authorized and directed to co-op- erate with the Governor of Virginia in soliciting the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey or some other Federal agency to supply impartial engineers to survey and mark and document the line with sufficient monuments to in- sure that it will be readily recognized or restored, if destroyed, including a report giving an account of the work. The governor also is authorized to con- tract for the expenses and to co-operate to get approval of the work from the Federal Congress. PROPERTY OWNERS ELECT Maj. Phil D.

He countered importers’ ar- guments that present duties were an incentive to smuggling of these prod- ucts by saying they were suffering more from -undervaluation than from smug- gling. On behalf of John W. Bolton & Sons, Lawrence, Mass., manufacturers of knives used in the textile industry, he requested an increase to 40 per cent | ad valorem in the existing duty of 20 | pez cent on these articles. This was | needed, he said, to balance English and German production costs. A plea that duties on safety razor blades be not lowered, as requested by some importers, was entered by H. W. Kenway, Boston, on behalf of the Gil- lette Safety Razor Co. He contended the industry needed the present duty of 1 cent per blade and 30 per cent ad valorem because of high labor and material costs.
