E. C. ROGERS, Business Manager
WITH THE AMERICAN ARMT IN
FRINGE, April 1. The substitution
of a ton of foot powder for flour in
making a batch of bread here re
cently proved successful only In
arousing suspicion temporarily
among the bojs that they were the
victims of another German plot.
No one knew what was the matter
with the flour. It was thought mere-
ly that some one had sold the Gov
ernment a bogus article, but the cli
max came today, when an official ap
peared at the quartermaster's place
and insisted that the ton of foot pow
der be produced. So far as Is known
the powder Is quite harmless. Just
how much of It was eaten is prob
lematical. The partly empted sacks
now are being rounded up and sent
out where they w411 be of more ser
vice than In the baker's kitchens.
The quartermaster's department In
the rush to get supplies forward, had
mistaken a shipment of the unlabeld
powder for flour, of which there was
then some shortage.
NEW YORK, April 1 Beautiful
Mme. Nezle Desplna Davldovltch
Storch, accused of being a German
spy, dead on the eve of her deporta
tion to France, will be burled Jhls aft
ernoon. The woman of fashion, once known
In all the capitals of the world, will
be Interred In a hermetically sealed
vault In Mount Olivet Cemetery. A
priest of the orthodox Greek church
will read the last ceremony.
French Baron Chief Mourner.
Baron Henri de BevlIIe. whose In
fatuatlon, for the fascinating Turk
caused his arrest with her on March
18, will be the chief mourner at the
funeral. He will be permitted to at
tend the funeral under heavy guard
from 'Ellis Island. His father. Baron
Albert de Bevllle, a loyal Frenchman,
of this city, will pay the funeral expenses.
While It was first thought likely the
death of Mme. Storch might open the
romantic story of her adventures In
this country since she chummed with
officials of foreign governments, It
now appears that so Important are the
discoveries made by the Department
of Justice In connection with her ac
tivities In Washington and New York
that the chapters of intrigue, detail
ing her association with army officers,
ambassadors, and attaches, may never
find their way out of the files of the
Department of Justice.
Nothing Is known of the family of
Mme. .Storch. She told an official of
tho Bureau of Investigation that at
the age of seventeen she married Paul
Storch. and said he was probably In
service In France at this time. She
was born In Constantinople.
Seed at Suicide Theory.
Government officials scoff at the
theory that Mme. Storch died a sui
cide. Since her arrest on March IS.
her physical condition had graduatfy
weakened under the strain to which
she was subjected.
The Turkish beauty contracted a
cold one night after a crying spell,
and pneumonia set In. In her despond
ency, officials say, the woman made
no effort to combat the trouble, desir
ing death rather than a further con
test with the law.
There was no criminal .charge
against her She uas never arraigned.
D. C. WAR WORKERS
EXPECTED TO PASS
Proposed legislation for housing in
the District of Columbia, as well as
housing for war workers the country
over, is expected soon to take shape
in Congress. ri
With the -demands for housing ia
Washington and elsewhere growing
every day, the House today has be
fore it the general housing bill, pro
viding 150,000,000 for housing, and In
cluding an amendment which allows
S10.O00.OO0 for housing In the District.
The Imperative need for Govern
ment acUanEinrefrrence-tqhouslng
In Washington has been set forth re
peatedly, both before the House Com.
mlttee on Public Buildings and before
the House District Committee. In the
recent report or the District Commit
tee on the Mapes bill, it was brought
out that many eligibles are turning
down Government Jobs in 'Washing,
ton because they cannot find quarters.
Indications are that both the House
and Senate will act favorably on the
proposed appropriation for housing In
wasmngton.
