ROCKVILLE, Md., March 22.—Mrs. Joseph G. Egberts of Washington, whose husband, William H.

Wife THE EVENING PEDDLER LICENSE BILL INTRODUCED tect Merchants in Montgomery. | By a Staft Correspondent of The Star. | ANNAPOLIS, March 22.—a move to halt roadside rtands or itinerant gomery County without a license nas ‘Pteicott Offers Measure to Yro-\ merchants from operating in Mont- | STAR. WASHINGTO | been inaugurated in the State Legis- | lature by Senator Stedman Prescott. | The bill would require persons en- | jznged in such businesses to purchase |a license for a charge of $100. It | | further provides fines for violation of | the proposed law. Senator Prescott introduced the bill last night, along with another mea- sure_designed to reduce the salary of | the Montgomery County Police Court | justice from $2,400 a year to $2,000. The Senate later in its session adopted two Prescott bills, one authorizing the county treasurer to | appoint his own counsel and private stenographer and the other extend- | ing the Chevy Chase fire tax area to D. C, include the community of North Chevy Chase. 3 Any person, assoclation, firm or | corporation would be required to pur- chase a county huckster’s license to hawk, sell, peddle or otherwise offer for sale any food or merchandise in the county under the terms of the roadside stand and itinerant mer- chants’ bill. The law would apply to persons so operating on the streets or highways of the county or in making house-to- house canvasses on foot. Fines not less than $10 nor more than $100 or a sentence of 30 days FRIDAY, MARCH 22, in jail in default of fines are pro- vided for violations of the law. The 19 license year would begin on June 1 next. Many civic organizations in the county have advocated enactment of such legislation for some time, point- ing out the roadside stands and itin- erant merchants offer unfair competi- tion for county business places, as they are not required to purchase li- censes or maintain permanent estab- lishments and thus are able to under- sell Montgomery merchants. The Prescott bill dealing with the county treasurer's appointments would permit that office holder to designate his attorney or attorneys at | an aggregate salary of $1,200 a year and appoint a private stenographer & sal not to exceed $1,300.

JERUSALEM, March 22 (Palcor Agency).—One of the most dramatic episodes in Biblical history was be- lieved thrown open for new study as the result of the recent discovery at ancient Lachish of a seal from the reign of Gedalia, last of the kings of Judah, who was murdered by a pretender to the throne, it was re- vealed yesterday by a member of the archeological expedition. Characterized by members of the expedition as one of the most remark- able finds of its nature, the ancient seal has inscribed upon it in Hebrew: “To Gedalia, who rules the house.” It is presumed that the seal belonged to Gedalia Ben Ahikem, who ruled the remnant of the kingdom of Judah after Nebuchadnezzar, king of Baby- lon, destroyed Jerusalem. It is believed that this is the same | Gedalia whose memory Jews still honor by observing the feast of Gedalia Gedalia, who ruled for a few years after 586 B. C., was appointed to his post by Nebuchadnezzar with Mizpah instead of Jerusalem as his capital. The Bible, in Second Kings, chapter 25, verse 22, states: ““And as for the | people that were left in the land of Judah whom Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, had left, even over them he made Gedalia the son of Ahikem, the | son of Shaphan, governor.” THE WEATHER District of Columbia—Showers to- | night and tomorrow; slightly colder with lowest temperature about 46 de- grees tonight, slowly rising tempera- ture tomorrow; gentle shifting winds, becoming southeast or south tomor- TOW.
