Is Found in His Hand. Hyattsville Judge Gives Sui- cide Verdict. Clasping a note which he had written to a girl, in his hand, Edward Sword, 25 | years old, committed suicide last night, | at 3704 Campbell street, Brentwood, | Md., by inhaling gas. | Friends of the young man say that on | other occasions he has threatened to take his life, and at one time attempted | to borrow a revolver. Early today he was found in the cel-| lar of the house where he had lived, | with the note in his hand, and a wrench which he had used to turn on the ga lying by his side. His body was discov- ered by neighbors, who summoned No. 1 Rescue Squad of Bladensburg. ‘The note which he held read: “Good- by, Pal. It was up to you. Good-by, Catherine.” Judge Mofiatt of Hyattsville, at an in- quest held this morning, returned a ver- RELIEF OF TRAFFIC ASKED BY CITIZENS Conditions on Maryland Ave- nue Cited by Stanton Park Association. Action was taken at the first Autumn meeting of the Stanton Park Citizens’ Association last night looking to the avenue northeast and the installation of controlled lights at certain congested intersections. Representatives of the Traffic Bureau will be asked to investigate conditions particularly at Stanton Park during the afternoon rush hour, when hundreds of motorists are returning to Maryland suburbs. This congested center, it was | said, is not only without a_traffic po- liceman, but lacks traffic lights also. Another corner to which the Traffic Bu- reau’s attention will be called is at Eighth street and Maryland avenue. A. H. Gregory, president of the Stan- ton Park Citizens’ Association, in dis- cussing school matters at the meeting, criticized the Board of Education chief- ly for what Gregory termed a complete ignoring of even unanimous expressions of opinion on the part of citizens' as- sociations regarding the selection of teachers and principals of schools. He said he doubted if citizens’ asso- ciations would ever receive fair consid- eration by the Board of Education un- til it becomes a body elected by popu- lar vote. The assoclation last night nominated officers for the ensuing year. They will be voted on at the next meeting, to be held the second Monday in October. The nominees are A. H. Gregory, presi- dent; Gilbert A, Clark and S. R. Frantz, Vce presidents; Mrs. L. H. Brown and | James P. Farmer, secretary; Robert | L. Bier, financial secretary; Robert borne Hunter, treasure!
