AUTOLICENSE Turner Uninjured in Crash FOR 1336 STUDIED Less Confusion Pledged by Selection in Contrast to State Choices. Tess confusion next year for mo- torists of the District and two neigh- boring States is being promised by | District Traffic Director Williem A. Van Duzer. Pinding out definitely what colors Virginia and Maryland are planning to use for their automobile plates in 1936, the local official already has lined his office with sample plates of other colors. Right now, he is leaning toward plates of a solid yellow background with lettering in either red or green. Readability tests are being made with these combinations before any decision is reached, how- ever, the plates being studied under various day and night lights. Virginia, due to enforce uniform plates on April 1, will then be using white plates with black lettering. For the following year they have decided to reverse these colors, Van Duzer has been informed. Maryland will follow a similar policy, he said, and for 1936 they will reverse the present color scheme of blue letters on a white background. The local director said he had requested similar information of the nearby States before deciding on the make-up of this year’s Dis- trict plates, but that it did not come through in time. “Policemen are able to dlstlng\lzh between the three sets of plates now,” Van Duzer said today, “but the aver- age citizen cannot. Personally, I would like to see automobile plates three times as large as they are now, large enough so anybody might read and identify them without trouble. It would prevent a fair percentage of these hit-and-run accidents. I don’t suppose the car owners would stand for it though, the appearance of their new cars is most important to them.” SHORT WILL ADDRESS JUNIOR NEW DEALERS Missouri Representative on Pro- gram Which Will Include Music and Forum. Representative Short of Missouri will be the speaker at the first regu- lar dinner meeting of the newly or- ganized Junior New Dealers’ Club at 7 p.m. Tuesday, March 19, at Sholl's Cafe, on Connecticut avenue A mu- sical program, open forum and danc- Ing will be included in the program.

Forced by low clouds and rain to land his fast, heavy plane in a fleld near Cleveland, Ohio, Col. Roscoe Turner, noted speed pilot, and his two passengers escaped uninjured, although the plane was badly damaged. ‘Turner maneuvered the ship to the ground under unfavorable conditions, but found the field rougher than he expected. The plane’s landing gear was destroyed and the propeller and engine cowling bent. Col. Roscoe Turner, examining bent propeller, with Don Young, his mechanic. As Pallbearers for| Chum They Burned : | Forgiven by Victim and | Parents, Youngsters May Escape Trial. " By the Associated Press. BROCKTON, Mass, March 14— The “Indians” who burned 9-year-old | Edward Smith “at the stake” last | Saturday carried him to his grave yesterday. The youngsters, whose | ages ranged from 8 to 11, wept openly. Overcoming their first bitterness at the tragic termination of the fatal game, during which Eddie and a| companion were lashed to a tree| around which grass and leaves had been heaped and then set on fire, Mr. and Mrs. Michael Smith, the boy’s parents, yielded to the tearful en- treaties of the grief-stricken “In- dians” and granted their request to serve as pallbearers. Rev Willllm P. Maciaszek in his eulogy said: “This little boy who has gone on, in his last moments had. no complaints against exemplifying the spirit of Christian charity and for- giveness. In his last whispered prayer he asked that nothing be done to his playmates.” It appeared practically certain the police would follow the example of Eddie and his parents and forgive the youthful “Indians.” ~—Wide World Photo. y ‘Indians’ Weep mmm DAILY SPECIALS FRIDAY, MARCH 15TH PURE CANDIES Milk Chocolate Nut Clusters 60¢ Value—full pund 29 Chocolate and Vanilla Coco i anut‘!'(: :rs.el:p-/-um 17¢ Chomlnefl:nndfnd’-a 19¢ Chocolate Covered Thyamints 50¢ Value—sull pound 8¢ Home Made Cocoanut Marshmallow Cake 40¢ Value 19¢ AT THE FOUNTAINS Tuna Fish Sandwich and Coffee reantar 25¢ 19¢ Pineapple Sundae regaiar1sg 1°¢ Hot Fudge Dundee Cake regular 15¢ 10¢ ‘STORES-One near yeu 1107 F St. NW. 3102 14th St. N.W. 3115 M St. NW. 800 7th St. N.W. 1103 H St. N.E.
