** GARBAE DISPOSAL | ] THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, 29 D C, MAY 1921—PART 1. MEASRE OPPOSED D. C. Comissioners Object to Transprting Refuse From Cit to Farms. The District Camissioners are op- posed to a bill inding in Congress to permit farmer jn Maryland and Virginia_to colle garbage in the District for hog fding. The city heads ated their views in a letter sent ygerday to RepYe- sentative Lampert,y which they say they believe the Phosed legislation is inadvisable. Letter of the Cumissioners. The letter of th Commissioners reads, in part, as folwys: “The Commissionel acting under Aauthority vested in tim by law, en- acted a police regution in 1902 which prohibited the ransportation of garbage through % District of Columbia by private iividuals and also prohibited the feedg of garbage within the District of Cambia to any animals used for food. From that time to the present yeaThat regula- tion has been enforced, exept for the two-year period during tl war, when Congress. as a war meas-e, enacted legislation permitting theransporta- tion of garbage under certn restric- tions. This war-time legiation was Tepealed on June 5, 1920, on repre- Sentations made to Congresshat good administration of District gajrs re- quired that the garbage sllection service be rendered by ° gingle agency, and that the cost of 1o gerye. ice was being increased by Damitting individuals to gather, here al there the valuable portion of the irpage. In other words, the effect * thig legislation was to materially-educe the revenues of fhe muniaality while not diminishing to an ap preciable extent the cost of t} ¢o]. lection service. ‘War Emergency Law Repealy, Ithough the war emergency gis- lation was repealed last summerihe Commissioners have permitted +ne practice of hauling garbage to neipy communities in Maryland to be . tinued temporarily upon represer,. tions that the summary withdray] of the privilege would cause: lg destruction of stock that had re reached maturity.” TWO HURT, ONE FA Woman Residents Returning From Church Knocked Down by Auto. o5, James Bergin, age, was fatally injured. and Mrs. Mary Purcell, her companion, sixty- three vears of age, was badly hurt when both were knocked down by an automobile Friday night at 1st and S streets while returning home from services at St. Martin's Church. George Potzler, said by the police to be the operator of the automobile, was held under $2,000 bonds following the accident. Mrs. Bergin, who resided at 22 Sea- ton place,died at <he Sibley Hospital two hours after the accident with- out regaining consciousness. Physi- cians attributed death to a fracture of the skull. She was a widow, and is survived by a son and daughter. Mrs. Purcell ‘probably will recover, according to physiicans at the Sib- ley Hospital. Principal injuries in heér case were contusions about the head and bruises. She also suffered trom shock. Potzler said that the two women stepped from the curb just as he was turning a corner.
