The board said the officer, William L. Carson, 25, shot himself.

SAUL 8on of Late Real Estate Man Says Wife's Divorce Was Illegal. ‘The District Court was the scene today of the trial of the annulment suit brought by Bernard F. Saul, son of the late B. F. Saul, prominent real estate dealer, against Mary Harding Saul. The husband maintained before Justice Oscar R. Lubring that Mrs. Saul has never been legally divorced from her former husband.

TIMES SQUARE'S LARGEST NOTEL THE EVE G STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1936.. W. tche kil W. P. A workers seem to munity. That was the impression gained yes- terday by Mrs. Ellen 8. Woodward, as- sistant W. P. A. administrator in charge of women’s and professional projects, who took a day off to make her first personal inspection of local approximately two years. The triumph of her tour was reached at the Smithsonian Institution, where some 80 “white-collar” employes have been fitted temporarily into its various departments. The skill and accuracy of these relief workers won high praise from museum officials, grateful for their assistance in the technical classi- been stored away and reconditioning of exhibits which long have awaited their place in museum cabinets. Visits Colored Unit. Earlier, Mrs. Woodward had in- cluded in & busy schedule a lunch at the colored unit of the Training School where 34 students are now learning the proper methods of keeping house. Since the training school was opened, some 35 students have been placed in domestic situations, and District house= wives are beginning to show much in- terest in their training, according to the supervisor, Mrs. Ella N. Putman. A similar school is operated for white women, not only for its value in job hunting but for its contribution to the proper maintenance of ¢ their own homes. Other points in Mrs. Woodward's tour included the District sewing room at John Marshall Church, where 1,300 women are employed in two daily shifts. Here 18,000 garments were made last month, the number includ- ing some 600 sweaters knitted by & staff of 150 women. Only women who ployed in the sewing room, Mrs. Wood- ward was informeéd when she com- mented on the finished appearance of the work At 1640 Wisconsin avenue she vis- ited the central kitchen, where school | & side trip to the studio of W.
