ACCOTINK, Va., August 14.—Blood- hounds from the Lorton Reformatory were called out yesterday to aid State and county police in a search for a colored man who early yesterday morn- ing held up George Dunn of Accotink and later assaulted his companion, Mrs. Hazel Maddox, of near Alexandria. According to an jnvestigation by Bergt. E. J. McDermott of the State police, Dunn and his companion were returning from a dance at the Mount Vernon Dance Hall and were on their way to Alexandria on the River road. When about a mile south of Belle Haven Dunn slowed down to park, he said, the colored man jumped on the running board. Forcing a gun into Dunn's ribs, he compelied him to drive back about two miles and drive the car into the woods for three- quarters of a mile Weoman Reports Assault. At this have abandoned the car and his com- panion and made his way to the road and then. to Accotink. Mrs. left alone with the bandit. was robbed and criminally assaulted, she told police, but succeeded in escaping from her assailant and walked to the main road, where a passing car drove her to police headquarters in Alexandria. Sergt. McDermott expressed the be- lief the woman’s assailant is a local man and that in all probability he is the same one who July 23 held up a Marine sergeant from Quantico, whose description of his assailant coincides with that given by Dunn and Mrs. Maddox of the man who attacked them. Suspect Arrested and Released. Lewis Finks of Fairfax County police reported the finding of a powder puff, later identified by Mrs. Maddox as be- longing to her. about a half mile from the place in the woods at which the car was parked. This led the police to believe that the assailant either dragged or carried his victim that dis- tance. An arrest was made connection with the case. but the sus- pect did not answer the description given by Dunn and Mrs. Maddox, and the man was released. The bloodhounds were taken to the scene of the attack at about 3 o'clock yesterday morning, but after an all- night search were still unable to pick up the trail of the colored man. They were to be taken back today, however. vesterday in THREE YOUTHS INJURED IN MOTOR CYCLE CRASH One May Have Skull Fracture and Others Are Burned After Blow- out Near Fairfax, Bpecial Dispatch to The Star.

Differences of opinion between the | Nation’s air transport operators and | Federal officials over reduction of thsl Government's aids to air navigation | are expected to reach a climax at an | important conference at the Depart- | ment of Commerce beginning at 10 a.m. tomorrow It is the opinion of representatives of the operators that the Department of Commerce is putting an unfair share of the economy program on the Aeronautics Branch, with resultant crippling of services necessary to the | safety of air transport operations in | all parts of the country. | They are particularly disturbed. it is | said, over what they term an arbitrary decision on the part of Secretary of Commerce Roper to reduce Federal ex- penditures for maintenance of Federal airways by approximately $800,000 be- | low the amount agreed to by Budget | Bureau officials, after the item already had taken its proportionate reduction in common with all other Department of Commerce appropriations. Many of the Nation's airway aids are operating on part-time schedule and | pilots have been warned to expect cur- tailments of service which may dras- tically affect the safety of operations at | night and in bad weather. All aids to air navigation at present are described | as subject to change. No public announcement has been made of tomorrow's conference, although operators of air transport services in all parts of the country, it is understood, have been called upon to send repre- sentatives here to confer with Federal officials concerning the curtailments of | | service which have been made and those | which must be made to keep within the | heavily reduced allotment of funds. \SMALL SAFE STOLEN FROM RESTAURANT, Strong Box Containing Betweeni $400 and $500 Lost by | Schneider's.
