CURTIS GOES HONE | WITH PLAN UNTOLD Vice President Fails to Tell Party Whether He Seeks Renomination. Vice President Curtis departed last night for his home in Topeka, Kans. where he will stay a month or lea lng unanswered a question that now ! to the fore in Republican political circles—whether he will again seek the vice ssidential nomination or run forl his old seat in the Senate, occupied by & Democrat. “I have decided nothing. I have something to say in the Fall; may not,” was the word he left here, a cording to the Assoclated Press. Asked to Keep Office. t While there was speculation in some | administratfon circles recently over new vice presidential timber, it is known | that Republican chieftains have ap- | pealed to Curtis to stand for renomi- | nation. i ‘They fear a possible adverse effect | on the party if Curtis decided not to| run again with President Hoover. WhHEv Curtis has been a loyal member of the | Hoover family, his friends say he does | not consider himself bound as to the future, In other words, if Curtis believes the prospects better for his return to the Senate than his chances of re- election to his present position, there is a belief among his friends that he will_abandon the vice presidency for the Senate race. Succeded by Allen. Curtls was succeeded in the Senate by Henry J. Allen, an appointee of former Gov. Reed. 'Allen was defeated last election by Senator McGill, a Democrat. The term expires next year. Since his future course became open to speculation Curtis has received s large amount of mail on the subject. He sald most of the letters from Kan- sas had_appealed to him to run again for the Senate. But, he added, most of the mail from outside the State has urged him to run again for the vice| presidency. Curtis served in the House and Sen- ate for more than a quarter of & cen- tury before becoming Vice President. He stood second to Hoover at the Kan- sas City presidential convention in 1928. “OUR CAR” PURCHASED FROM HOUSE BY SENATE Auto Used by Late Speaker Long- worth, and Target for Garner Joke Changes Hands. “Our car” has been sold to the Sen- ate for official use, so the automobile of the late Speaker of the House Long- worth will never be used by “Jack” Garner of Texas, should the latter be- come Speaker, Garner, a close friend of Longworth, referred to the automobile as “our car.” Longworth always denied the joint own- ership, but used to drive his crony “Jack” home after the day's sessions. A new car will be purchased for the next Speaker. SPECIAL NOTICES. THE ANNUAL ELECTION OF RS 765t the Oriental Bullding.

ADVERTISERS VIEW PAPERS AS UNIT Appropriations Being Made More for Daily Field as Whole. 1 The growing importance and value | of newspaper advertising on a national | scale by great advertisers was stressed | today by F. R. Gamble, executive sec- | retary of the American Association of Advertising Agencles. Speaking before the Fifth Mechanical | Conference of the American Newspnper‘ Publishers' Association at the Govern- | ment_Printing Office, Mr. Gamble said | newspaper advertising was _becominy considered more and more both by pub- lishers and by national advertising agencles as a “unit” for large appropria- | tions. Standardization Under Way. ‘This means, the speaker said, that the further newspapers progress in mechanical perfection the more it is going to be possible for the agencies to use the newspapers as a unit. Along this line a movement is well under way for certain kinds of mechanical stand- ardization, Mr. Gamble said, particular- | ly as to column width, to make it pos- | sible for the advertising agencies to use the same size plates in newspapers throughout the country. Newspapers would not be asked to give up their individuality, he said, but irregular sizes, especially as to column | width, add to the cost of preparing | materials to be put into advertising | space, thereby reducing the amount of space that advertisers allot under their general appropriation. Two Main Sizes. In discussion from the floor it was brought out that 92 per cent of the newspapers of the country use two gen- eral sizes of page—8-columns, 12-em width and 8-columns, 12'-em width. The other 8 per cent of the newspapers in the country are divided into 16 dif- ferent page widths, it was said. Among the features for discussion of press room topics today was a talk by E. L. Cecil, h!ld machinist of the press room of The Evening Star, on refin- ishing and polishing rubber rollers. He presented motion motion pictures of machinery developed in The Star and now in use there for such regrinding and refinishing. He sald by this proc- ess rollers might be made to last through a total of 10 or 12 refinish- | ings. W. W. Warfel, representing the | Maurice Joyce Engraving Co., discussed newspaper illustration and its problems. Capt. C. H. Ruth, superintendent of The Evening Star, presided at one of the sessions of the three-day conference which closed today, and other Star representatives present included: John Callahan, foreman of the press room; Richard Brown, foreman of stereotyp- ing; Joseph E. Whyte, foreman of the composing room; Willlam H. McLean, Alexander Gordon and Ralph Prescott of the composing room, and Frank J. C. F. Hart Presides, The presiding officer this morning was Charles F. Hart of the New York ‘Times, and this afternoon Frederick H. Keefe, publisher of the Newburgh News. Other speakers on the program in- cluded: W. W. Spaulding of the Albany Knickerbocker Press; Joseph M. Farrell of the A. A. A. A.; Rudolph E. Lent, Jersey Journal; Jackson Townsend, president Wood Flong Corporation; John W. Park, pmducmn manager, Chicago Tribune; T. F. McPherson, composing room analyst; Arthur H. Burns, New York Herald Tribune; B. L. Wehmhoff, technical director Gov- ernment Printing Office; George H. Car- ter, public printer, and W. E. Wines of the American Newspaper Publishers’ Association. Sessions were held both in the Gov- ernment Printing Office and Wardman Park Hotel. CITY NEWS IN BRIEF.

Two young white men, who entered the apartment of Mrs. Helen B. Mason, |1340 R street, with a duplicate key, were frightened away when they en- countered the occupant. ~Nothing was taken. A similar burglary was reported by | Mrs. Helen M. Carroll, 1128 Montello enue northeast, who told police a pocketbook containing papers and $8 in cash was stolen. A t watch was stolen by duplicate-key workers who entered the home of Bernard M. Baines, 1926 New Hampshire avenue. Dr. James Clark, druggist, of 3146 Mount Pleasant street, told police he was held up in his place of business by three armed men and robbed of $130. The bandits ordered a tube of tooth paste and a soda before rifling the cash register, Dr. Clark said. The other hold-up victim was Jesse F.

IRESIDENTS FIEH BUSINESS ZONING Proposed Change on East Side of 20th Street Is Opposed. Owners of a large number of proper- ties, some of rsonal mends and neighbors, were arrayed each other today in a hearing belore Zoning Commission on & proposal to ¢hange from rvesidential to first com- mercial use the East side of 'rwmmm street between Florida avenue and R street. . This was the first of 27 proposed changes on the schedule of the current hearing of the Zonln' Commission, one of three to be held this year. While two new groups of petitioners and op- ponents were involved in this case, it developed into a repetition of old com- plaints caused by the spreading of com~ mercial activities into residential sec- tions. Castle Joins Opposition. William R. Castle, jr., Undersecre- tary of the State, who opposed the change in a letter ‘filed with the com- mission, was one of the property own- ers of the vicinity protesting extension of the commercial area. The extension | is being sought by Dr. J. Lawn Thomp- son and T. A. Scott Thropp. Oppusmon of the Dupont Circle Citi- zens' Association was registered by a spokesman, who said he also rtpresanud Dr. Thomas A. Claytor, J. H. Purdy and Mrs. Minna Johnson. Edward W. Donn, jr., also was listed as opposed. In urging the change, Dr. Thomp- son declared the roar of traffic through the section and the parking of a large fleet of taxicabs there had made property unusablé as a residence. Speakers opposing the change con- tended commercialization of the east side of Twentieth street would consti- tute an entering wedge for further ex- tension of business into neighboring areas. Escape Criticism. No opposition was recorded to an- other petition which would make pos- sible the construction of a building of maximum height under zoning on the north side of I street between Fifteenth and Sixteenth streets. This change was sought by Charles Henry Butler, a resi- dent of the block, and William R. Ellis, who has an office in the area, who asked that the height limit on the sec- tion be raised from 90 to 110 feet. A contest developed over a renewed attempt to change the zoning of prop- erty on the southwest corner of Eleventh street and Rhode Island avenue, where the Northminster Presbyterian Church is located. from residential to first com- mercial use. The change was sought by trustees of the church, who said the church could not be continued at that location because its membership had moved to other sections. Opposing this change were 21 resi- dents, who feared their properties would be damaged by an increase of business nenrbv FOUR GIRLS GRADUATE AT EASTMAN SCHOOL Four girls were graduated from the Eastman School at commencement ex- | ercises Monday in Barker Hall of the | gun.

ALLEGED SLAYER LOSES JUDGE RACE Los Angeles Attorney Held for Murdering Two Polls 65,000 Votes. By the Associated Press. LOS ANGELES, June 3.—While he his | W88 being bound over for trial on charges of murdering Charles Crawford, political boss, and Herbert Spencer, magazine editor, David H. Clark polled more than 65,000 votes here yesterday in his race for municipal judge, but was defeated. Complete official returns gave Clark | 67,014 votes and his opponent, Charles B. McCoy, incumbent, 95,774. Clark, central figure in a case de- scribed by prosecuting authorities as a racketeer killing, remained in jail today, unable to raise the $100,000 bond set | for his release pending trial. Special Prosecutor Joseph Ford an- nounced Jean Riley, motion-pictare | actress, had been dismissed as a State witness. She did not testify. Miss Riley confessed, Ford said, that her story that she had seen three men run from Crawford’s office immediately after the shooting May 20 was a fabri- cation, told in the hope of getting publicity. Clark's attorneys did not ask dis- missal of the charges at the close of the hearing, saying he felt all facts | should be brought to light in Superior Court. Municipal Judge Carl B. Stur- zenacker granted hym bail over the | protest of Ford. Volunteer bondsmen were able im- efforts were cantinued until midnight to obtain the remaining $36,000. At that time Clark retired to await de- velopments. Two defense witnesses—Spencer Mox- ley of the police department and Capt. | Edward C. Crossman, ballistics expert— | testified they were unable to tell whether the bullets which killed Craw- ford -nd Spencer were from the same Young Women's Christian Association. | o They were the Misses Virginia Marie Clementson, Edith Eleanor Browning.

M.
