THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, MARCH 30, 1930—PART ONE. FEDERAL SMOKERS CHIEF FIRE SOURCE Cigarettes Originate More| Than Twice as Many Blazes | as Any Other Cause. Cigarettes handled carelessly were re- | sponsible for more than twice as many | fires in Federal buildings here last year as any other one cause, it was| pointed out by Capt. R. C. Montgom- | ery, U. S. A, chief of the protection bureau, Public Bulldings and Public Parks, in an address Priday before the United States Chamber of Commerce. ©Of the 79 fires which occurred on Government property, 29 were caused by cigarettes, Capt. Montgomery de- clared, while 13 were traced to short- | circuited_electrical equipment. Eleven | of the blazes were caused by back- | firing motors and 12 were listed as of | “unknown origin.” Protective Measures. In his address, Capt. Montg)mery reviewed the strenuous efforts puc forth | by Federal agencies to minimize the fire hazard in Government properties. | Through these protective measures the | temporary frame structures which still house certain Government departments and which present the greatest danger from fire, have witnessed very few | blazes, while most of the fires have been in the so-calied “fireproof” build- in gs. The precautionary measures in the temporary buildings include the prohi- bition of all smoking and the virtual elimination of waste baskets, ash trays and awnings. As a further precaution, | fire drills are frequent maneuvers in the wooden structures. In its efforts to reduce the fire haz- ard in the new Government buildings now under construction, Capt. Mont- gomery declared that many novel and modern devices are being installed. In the Internal Revenue Building, he said, “there is water, water everywhere.” Standpipe System. “A complete system of standpipes .earries a firefighting pressure to hose lines or outlets in every part of the building,” Capt. Montgomery explained. “Automatic sprinklers are being in- stalled in all the mechanical shops in the bullding, so that danger spots, h a8 paint shops, carpenter shops, awn- repair shops, etc., cannot develop a serious fire should we be so unfor- tunate as to have our past record of many years broken by having a fire actually break out in one of them.” DRY KILLING TRIAL SET FOR APRIL 16 Gounsel in Case at Lynchburg Agreed Tentatively on for change of venue, Court sustained the lower ding a special statute provid- hange of venue in prohibition X, unconstitutional, being class jon. LIZABETH M’DONALD NAMED FOR FESTIVAL Daughter of President of Storer College to Represent Jefferson County at Annual Event. Special Dispatch to The Star. HARPERS FERRY, W. Va, March 29.—Miss Elizabeth George McDonald, daughter of H. T. McDonald, president of Storer College here, was announced today as Jefferson County’s representa- | tive in the 1930 apple blossom festival | Pl at Winchester, Va., probably the last week in April. Miss McDonald, 21, has been a student at William and Mary | College, Willlamsburg, Va. but is at| present at her home here. The selec- tion was made by a committee of Jef- ferson County men at the request of the festival management. Dr. McDonald, who was a member of the committee, explained that the selec- tion was made by the other two mem- bers, Dr. Walter Dittmyer, Harpers Ferry, and Col. George B. Goets, Charleston, without his knowledge, but that, obviously, he would not resist the selection strongly.

Anxious to prevent traffic congestion, | Tidal Basin and be permitted to pass Col. U. S. Grant, 3d, director of public | the polo field toward the Inlet Bridge, buildings and_public parks, ves appealed to Washington motorists to avoid Potomac Park Sundays during the cherry blossom season as & courtesy to out-of-town visitors. “The generous hospitality for which Washington has been noted,” Col. Grant declared, “would Seem to cause those who live here to stand aside on Sun- days in favor of visitors. “Inquiries from newspapers outside of Washington indicate wide interést and an inflow of visitors, which will prob- ably begin Sunday if the weather is nt. Experience has shown in past that when most of the automobiles from two or three well populated States attempt to concentrate on the roadways in the vicinity of the Potomac Parks | | congestion is bound to result.” Meanwhile, on the heels of an official | announcement that the cherry blos- soms would begin to bloom with a rush on the first warm day, Weather Bureau attaches forecast an average tempera- ture of 55 degrees for today. The pre- diction for tomorrow was little change, while a gradual rise was expected Tues- day. Col. Grant expressed the hope that non-tourist traffic en route to or from nearby Virginia would avoid the Poto- mac Park roadways throughout the blossom season. He suggest-d the use of Key Bridge, or at least that the traf- | fic be confined to Fourteenth street. Traffic around the Tidal Basin to- | day will be directed on & one-way plan, proven successful in tests. All cars { approsching the Basin by Seventeenth street will be diverted west around the JEFFERSON JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL | approaches. ! policemen will direct traffic. yestarday | thence on around the Basin, coming out on Fourteenth street. The Hains Point roadway will be one-way as usual.

They reveal the boy Sam Clemens (Mark Twain) in his teens as substi- tuting as editor of his brother's ne paper here and striving to “liven up” the columns of the paper with his wit. His methods reveal him as even then richly possessed of the ingenuity he later instilled in his fiction characters, Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, ‘The newspapers were found by Rev. C. J. Armstrong, Hannibal pastor and long a student of Mark Twain, among seven volumes of old Hannibal papers preserved by the late W. H. League, boyhood friends of Sam Clemens. They had been shelved away by his daughter, Miss Nettie League. Dr. Armstrong’s discoveries, includ- | ing one original poem, several witty articles and editorials and a few clever- ly designed “woodcut” cartoons by the humorist, are described by him in articles published in the Hannibal Courier-Post.
