COLORIAL VILLAGE ADDITION PLANNED Second Unit Will Cost $2,000,000 and Loan Is Now Being Negotiated. By a Staff Correspondent of The Star. ARLINGTON COURT HOUSE, Va,, August 17.—A 450-unit addition to the Colonial Village Apartments on Wil- son Boulevard, the Nation's first lim- ited dividend housing project of the type financed under the provisions of the Federal housing act, is being planned for early contruction, it was revealed here today. The Federai Housing Administra- tion has already given its sanction to the project and will guarantee a construction loan when one is ar- ranged. Negotiations for the loan are being conducted with a New York life insurance company by Gustave Ring, president of the Ring Construction Co., who is ir charge of the project. No difficultiec are expected in ob- | taining the loan, according to Ring, | and when financing is arranged work | will begin. The second vnit, according to plans, | will cost $2.000.000 and stand on a| 27-acre site. The first unit contains 276 apartments, located on a plot of 13 acres, and is costing slightly in| excess of $800,000 to build. It is now | nearing completion. Altogether 10 such projects in the | United States have been approved by the Federal Housing Administration, | it was stated today by officials. The | Arlington County project is the only one under construction. “Nothing definite can be said about the project except that we are going | forward with our plans in anticipa- | tion that financing can be arranged,” Ring said. He adced that he expected negotiations to be completed by the | end of August and that if the loan| was grantea construction would h{‘gln‘ immediately afterwards.

WHEELER i Associated Press Staff Writer. ONNEVILLE SALT FLATS, Utah (#)—When Sir Mal- colm Campbell roars across the glistening white Bonne- ville salt flats in Northwestern Utah toward his long-sought goal of 300 miles an hour, he will pilot his giant Bluebird racer along a straight strip of black paint 18 inches wide and 13 miles long. | The 13-mile course already has been surveyed and preparations made to paint the black ribbon which will guide Campbell early in September as he tries for the terrific speed he has Everything will be ready for the daring Englishman upon his arrival here September 2, A.

Several test spins will be made before the car is ready for the —A. P. Photo. final dash, automobile authorities de- clare, because at the 4,380-foot alti- tude it will be necessary to tune the engine to compensate for the rarified air. A richer mixture will be needed 1n the carburetor. Although only 13 miles is needed for Campbell's run, he could have a much longer course. The great salt flats are 42 miles long and 17 across, one solid lump of salt ranging in depth from 2 inches to 5 feet, deposited here thousands of years ago when Lake Bonneville dried up and left what is now Great Salt Lake. Telephones will be placed along the course at mile intervals. From these observation ‘points the Bluebird's speed will be checked at various stages. For six miles Sir Malcolm will build up the hoped-for 300-mile speed, then he will enter the measured mile, where he hopes to attain his goal. The remaining six miles will give Campbell a chance to bring his big racing dynamo to a safe stop. The British racer must wear black glasses when he sends his machine flying across the white expanse, for the glistening flat reflects blinding rays as the desert sun beats down upon it.

Sir Malcolm probably will find day temperatures at the flats ranging up- ward from 100 to 115 degrees during the period he will be here. | Wendover, 15 miles southwest of | the western tip of the measured course, is the closest town to the flats, and it is from there that water will be | packed to the racing camp. Ample facilities have been provided for this, as well as for food, and when the col- ony is in full operation, regular trips will be made from Wendover. Although crowds have been small during recent racing events on the flats, because of poor roads and the 130-mile drive from Salt Lake City, east of here, the mention of such speeds as 300 miles per hour has aroused considerable interest. Thou- sands are expected for the race against time. Spectators will be kept two miles from the course during the runs, be- | cause of the dangerous threat of a crash. Should the Bluebird be un- | fortunate enough to get out of con- | trol during the runs, it would prob- ably travel several miles befors com- | ing to & stop.

Vincent's Hospital, | who lived for 27 days behaving with complete normality for the six days of his life, was found to have existed with only fluid in the cranial cavity instead of a developed brain, phy- siclans at the hospital reported after an autopsy today. The case was described as one of the most puzzling in the hospital's history. The child died at 4 am. today. Members of the hospital staff, re- luctant to discuss the case without further study, declined to disclose his | parents’ names. | For six days after birth, the hos- pital staff said, the baby had be-| trayed not the slightest sign of abnor- mality. He had eaten regularly, had cried like any other baby and had wiggled his hands, arms and legs. The first indication of abnormality | appeared on the seventh day, when | the infant began to refuse food en- | tirely or to partake of it nuu]ly: with [ il Pace ng 27 Days apparently little appetite. At the same time the baby’s skin assumed a slight= 1y bluish tinge, the discoloration start- ing at the face and soon extending over the entire body. Despite constant surveillance and every possible attention, the baby's conditon became progressively worse during the next two weeks. Por sey- eral days before death the child’s head began to enlarge, according to che hospital's physiclans, who were unable to explain the ailment. In the autopsy about 10 ounces of fluid was withdrawn from the cranial cavity where the brain matter should have been, according to members of the hospital staff. The examination of the fluld will continue for several days. Gold Area Untouched.
