Allen J. Saville of Richmond, zoning engineer and the principal speaker of the evening, after paying a high tribute to all concerned with the prepa- ration of the ordinance and maps, ‘which are now before the sponsors for adoption, declared that the people now have an instrument that will pave the ‘way for orderly and attractive develop- ment and a bright and prospercus Juture for Arlington County. ‘The commission, Saville declared, has spent months in its work, giving care- ful consideration to all suggestions of individuals and organizations and the requirements of all sections of the county.

Special Dispatch to The Star. LYNCHBURG, Va, January 11.— After much investigation and not a lit- tle worry the detective bureau here has solved the presence of bloodstains on the surface of Oakley avenue. The mystery was deepened by a woman who reported she saw an automobile stop in front of her home and when a man got out he picked up something which “he seemed to carry in his arms.” Naturally a hit-and-run driver bobbed up, but the golllee were as short of the victim as the river. All day yesterday the department in- vestigated until Patrolman Wooldridge reported that a man struck and killed a rabbit with his car, and that he got out of his car, picked the rabbit up and took it home with him.

Anticipating the adoption of the Cramton bill, which provides for great park, playground and boulevard devel- opment of this side of the Potomac, Saville declared that if any financiai contribution is to be made by Vi to these projects it should come out of State funds, and not of the county treasury.
