The Mode—F at Eleventh Arlington Board of Super- visors Oust Superintendent - From Room. BY LESLIE N. INSKEEP, Staff Correspondent of The Star. ARLINGTON COUNTY COURT HOUSE, Va., June 19.—Claiming that the room is needed for other purposes, the board of county supervisors, meeting yesterday in special session, ordered the | county school board to vacate the first floor quarters now occupled by the su- perintendent of schools, the place to be made_available for the former body July 1. The motion to oust the school super- intendent was made by Supervisor Ed- ward Duncan of Jefferson district and seconded by Supervisor E. C. Turnburke of Washington district. Supervisor B. M. Hedrick of Arlington district did not voice his approval of the move. Needed by County Engineer. ‘The reasons given by the board were that more room is needed by the office of the county engineer and that the board of supervisors itself needs more suitable quarters for its meet- ings, which ordinarily take place twice monthly. Fletcher Kemp, superintend- ent of schools, was notified that he might make use of some vacant rooms on the third floor of the building, which is accessible only by stairway, or move his office to one of the school buildings. Expressing the belief that the mer- chants of the county are suffering by reason of the ordinance prohibiting the sale of fireworks, the board rescinded the prohibitive measure and announced that it would permit the sale on the 1st, 2d, 3d and 4th of July. Sheriff Howard B. Fields will have the authority to regulate the sale, permitting the fire- works to be sold only in the stores and not upon the streets. The conference with Thomas Holden, engineer of the Washington Gas Light Co., over the proposed extension of the mains of the Rosslyn Gas Co. over the entire county and into Fairfax County was not the success that it might have been and a further conference was set for the next board meeting on June 30. The question of the repair of streets that are damaged in the Jaying of mains was to have been the principal subject for discussion, but turned out to be but one of a number of controversial mat- ters. 4 Repayment Discussed. One of these was a question as to whether the gas company should be compelled to repay individuals and owners of subdivisions who had installed gas mains at their own expense. Ash- ton C. Jones, subdivision owner and president of the Arlington Chamber of Commerce, took the stand that the com- pany, now that it is asking for a per- mit to extend its mains, should reim- burse him and others for the money already expended. This same view was taken by Supervisor Hedrick. The board took the position that the gas company should be required to post a cash bond to each project that would result in the damage of streets. Holden stated that the plans of the company for its extensions had been approved by County Engineer C. L. Kinnier and asked whether a surety bond for the proper replacement of streets would not be sufficient. He was informed that it would not be. ‘The question of rates also was brought up by Hedrick. He asked what the local gas company pays the Georgetown Gas Light Co., which in turn is a sub- sidiary of the Washington Gas Light Co. Holden replied that he was not in A position to say, and Hedrick informed him that all such information must be available before the final permit for the extension is granted. It was finally ar- ranged for other officials of the gas company to appear before the super- visors at their next meeting. Acting on a recommendation of Rob- ert H. Forman, zoning administrative officer, the board authorized the ap- pointment of a commission of three BY FAKE POLICEMAN Wife of Tine Bimbo Thought He Was Arrested Until Inquiry i at Station. ‘ R i By the Assoclated Press. « CHICAGO, June 20.—The “King of the Gypsies,” as Tine Bimbo is called, has disappeared and is presumed to have been kidnaped by persons mas- querading as police officers, ‘The “King's” disappearance was re- vealed early today when Mrs. Mary Bimbo, his wife, appeared at police headquarters and inquired why her husband was being detained.
