ORE REVEALS SOLS; Ml IS ARKS1ED Police Claim They Found Corn Whisky in House on L Street An oil stove said to be used to distill corn whisky became overheated last night on the second floor of a house at 820 L street northeast and caused a fire which resulted in the discovery bv firemen and subsequent seizure by the police of two stills. Two kegs and a number of jars of what the police say is corn whisky and several barrels of mash were found. Edna Pearl High, thirty-eight years j old. occupant of the house, told Capt. Stoll. Lieut. Burlingame and other members of the ninth precinct police i that she did not know the stills were in operation in the house. She is said to have stated that she rented the room to two white men, but was unable to tell their names. The men were not at home, however, and Edna was arrested on charges of manufneturing and illegal possession. It required two trips of the patrol to remove the stills and other evidence to the police station. The mash was destroyed. Bond in the sum of $3,000 was furnished for the appearance of the defendant. The fire did about $100 damage. Maurice Newsholtz. nineteen years old, of 1313 6th street northwest, and 120 gallons of corn whisky are being detained at the ninth precinct station as the result of a raid early this morning on a one-room building at 1110 D street northeast. The police are looking for Joseph Glass and a ! third man in connection with the | presence of the whisky at that place, i Ellis Duke, owner of Duke's bot; tling works, on whose premises the small building is located, told the police he rented it to Joseph Glass , about a month ago. Mr. Duke, offij cers stated, was absolved of any conjnection with the presence of the whisky In the house. About 5 o'clock this morning NewI sholtz and another man were seen I loading some cartons in a touring automobile by Policeman Ward of the ninth precinct, who at once notified his station. Capt. Stoll. Lieut. Burlingame. Detectives Davis, Kuehling and Sirola, Revenue Agent Hlnes and Officer Smith went to the scene immediately, confiscated the whisky and held Newsholtz for investigation" The man who is alleged to have been loading the cartons with Newsholtz escaped. steTspng plan is opposed i Roping Off Thoroughfares Held Unfair to Many Residents. An unfavorable report on the suggestion that certain streets be roped off as skating rinks for children was submitted to Commissioner Oyster today by Inspector Albert J. Headley. head of the police traffic bureau. Inspector Headley made the report after considering resolutions from the Thirteen Club, which contained the proposal. Thinks Plan Unfair. The police official told the Commissioner he did not believe such a step would be for the best Interests of the community. He said there no doubt are unfrequented streets that could be roped off. but lie added that he did not believe It would be fair to the residents of such streets to concentrate ail of the skaters of the neighborhood In rront or a rew nouses. i Commissioner Oyster Indicated that he would discuss the skating problem with his colleagues at the board meet- ] lng today, but he said he had no defi- | nite plan to lay before them for its solution at this time. Mrs. Kills I_,ogan. chairman of the public welfare committee of the District Federation of Women's Clubs, announced that her committee would meet Wednesday to discuss ways of safeguarding children from accidents while skating. All Rave Rights. "My feeling in the matter Is that grown-up people should consider carefully the rights of our boys and girls to play, and that children in turn should recognize the rights of their elderB," said Mrs. Logan. Mrs. Ix>gan said there are a number of mothers on her committee and she felt sure they would have Valuable suggestions to make at the meeting next week. Commissioner Oyster said he was impressed by the suggestion of Miss Elizabeth Mahon, a playground worker, that skating rinks be laid off on the municipal playgrounds. It may be that funds are not available Immediately to lay strips of concrete for skating purposes around the playgrounds, but the Commissioner indicated that he would seriously consider the suggestion.

I The dove of peace sought seclusion ' in a far-away wood as a violent barrage was opened up from the "line.*' j and Mars himself trembled when a 2,000-pound projectile, fired from a 16-inch gun. penetrated sixteen inches of armor steel before it exploded. A huge bomber away up in the clouds then dropped a 2.000-pound "egg" which, requiring twenty-three seconds to reach its destination, tore up an excavation fifty feet in diameter and forty feet or more in depth. In j marked contrast to this tremendous explosive was a shell with a sensitive fuse, so devised to withstand the shock of firing, yet which will explode if it brushes against the fabric of an airplane wing. Gun With 23-Mile Range. A 14-inch gun with an extreme range of twenty-three miles also was fired. Its projectile weighed 1.560 pounds and. en route to the target it could pass over the highest known mountain peak, experts say. On striking its objective, it penetrated thirty to forty feet into the ground, making a crater sixty feet in diameter and thirty feet deep. I Of the smaller arms demonstrated | there was & one-half-inch caliber machine gun with a range of five miles. It fired 600 shots per minute and the big bullets penetrated lifty inches of oak wood at 400 yards. This gun has a range increase of three miles over those used in the world war, officers said. , The last of the explosive demon-j stration will be given tonight when \ airplane flares, which will give as much light as 10.000 ordinary electric bulbs, will be dropped, to burn for six or seven minutes. More "Peaceful Demonstrations. * Of the more peaceful demonstrations were the amphibious reconnaissance tractor and the Tadlo-directed tank. The former has a speed of twelve miles an hour across rough country and can negotiate any stream. It carries two officers as its crew, riding in a boat-shaped body. On reaching a waterway too deep to be forded the machine floats and is propelled to the other side by a screw propeller. The radio tank jogged over a field with the operator completely hidden from view. He made all movements in response to radio signals from an officer in another tank.
