B—-12 BUS DESIENATN CHANGE I URGED Washington Highlands Citi- . zens’ Association Com- : plains of Present Signs. A motion was passed by the Wash- ington Highlands Citizens' Associa- tion last night, at its first meeting | of the Fall season, requesting the Capt. | tal Transit Co. to change the desig- nation on the busses that run out to | the community from the present sign of Congress Heights to that of Wash- ington Highlands. Letters asking this are to be sent to the transit company | and the Public Utilities Commission. | ‘The association contended it was the prime factor in having the busses installed, and for this reason, if no other, the signs should designate the | community, as the busses go through | Congress Heights to get to Washing- | ton Highlands. Some suggestéd that | the sign be split with Congress Heights-Washington Highlands as the designation. This proposal was not acted on, the association deciding the transit company could make their own decision. Diversion of the gas tax for any purpose other than the maintenance of streets and highways was opposed in snother motion adopted. The Star’s Safety Campeign was wholeheartedly indorsed. ‘W. Earl Nair was nominated presi- dent; H. A. Yeager, first vice president; 'W. B. Lovejoy, second vice president; Miss Lottie Roberts, secretary, and Mrs. H. D. Butler, treasurer. The election will take place at next month’s meeting. Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Barnes were nominated as delegates to the Federation of Citizens’ Associations and Nair, Lovejoy and H. D. Butler as representatives to the Southeast Council. Removal of trees at Nichols avenue and Halley place southeast to improve the visibility of bus drivers who turn in at this corner, and an additional street light on the east side of Nichols avenue were asked in a letter to be| sent to the Engineering Department.

ROCKVILLE, Md., October 4 —What is believed to have been Montgomery County’s first matricide case was tried before Judges Charles W. Woodward and Arthur D. Willard in Circuit Court here yesterday. The defendant was Henry Swailes, 46, colored, charged with murdering his mother, Annie Swailes, in their home near Forest Glen last June. The court decided that at the time of the commission of the crime the man was insane and is still insane. He was, therefore, found not guilty and ordered committed to Crownsville Asylum. The testimony showed that the | woman was beaten to death and prob- ably robbed of a small amount of money. The defendant denied having harmed his mother and insisted he urged the membership to support The | tached Navy Yard, Cavite; to home, | was away from home the day she was Star’s Safety Campaign.
