ALLEY PROBLEM Recommendatlons Made’ at Banquet of Monday Evening Club Favorably Re- cclved—Woulcl Extend Law.! A three-point plan for settlement of Washington's alley problem, the sec- ond point of which immediately re- célved the approval of Englneer Com- missioner Charles Kellew, Was pro- posed at the banquet of the Monday Evening Club held at Rauschers last night. The plan, presented by John Ihider, chairman of the housing com- mittee of the club, asks that the law declaring inhabited alleys here should | be closed one year after the signing of peace be amended to three years; that the Cemmissioners should be urged to appoint a commission to for- mulate plans in regard to the alleys and report before they are closed, and | | that officlals should act with increas- ed vigor to maintain alley homes in as sanitary condition as possible. Commission Idea Lauded. Commissioner Keller, who was one of the speakers of the evening. laud- 4d the propusal for appointment of a commission, and sald that some such plan as this commission would be au- thorized to present would be “a nece- sary step before the Commissioners can do anything.” A motion that the report be referred to the club’s executlve committee was made by Walter 8. Ufford, and unani- mously adopted by the 175 Perannl at table. It was pointed out In the re- port of the housing committee that at this time there are not enough available habitable houses here to hold the alley dwellers if they should be moved out by law. It is improbable that such homes can be erected in the near future, the report continued, and of there are at present no plans to al- low one to believe it can be done. Soclal Agencles Discusse ‘ This being the only business trans- | acted_at the banquet, President Ar-. thur Deerin Call, who acted as toast- master, announced the general topic of the evening, “The Place of Coun- clls of Social Agencles in American Communities.” ~Those who spoke on the subject were Fred C. Croxton, di-{ rector of the Council of Social Agen- cles, Columbus, Ohio, and Newbold Noyes, president of the Washington Council of Soclal Agencles. Gen. Charles E. Sawyer, Col. Charles Kel- ler, Engineer Commissioner, and Dr. James 1. Freeman, rector of the Charch of the Epiphany, discussed the topl Bfhe hove of all our work.is in the man who Is ahead of us/" President Call said, introducing Mr. Crexton, who told of the successful work of the Columbus council, now several years old. “There has been déveloping through- out the country & very great tendency to bring together agencies doing wel- fare work,” Mr. Croxton said. “The real problem in social work has been to bring together the many splendid agencles that have sprung up to meet different needs.” 4Get-Together Spirit.” | He told how the “get-together spirit” was developed in Columbus through & “philanthropic council,” how the chamber of commerce be- came Interested, causing a social sur- Vey to be made. One of the findings was that thirty agencies dealt with public health problems, and duplica- | tions prevailed all along the line. Then the Columbus Council of So- cial Agencles wis born, “not unlike your council here.” Mr. Croxton told ine club. The Columbus Council hasj two representatives from each agency, with 140 agencies represent- ed. It has an executive board of fif- teen members, elected in a very democratic manner. A separate body, known as the Columbus Advisory Council, is composed of business men and others interested, camprising 100 public-spirited men. D est 15 the agent of all the | agencies, Mr. Croxton said. The| council has been a most important LT O T Madras and more conservative. at $36.85 and our finest at $43.85. factor {n removing many. problems that vex from the field of con- troversy, the speaker continued. It is not fair alwaye to line up em- ployers and labor agalnst each other, as, for instance, In the discussion of child labor, Mr. Croxton pointed out. Approached as a community problem you take it out of the field of con- troversy, as each side to the argument sces the problem In. the large way. By approaching the problem of work- ing conditions from the standpoint of public health the problem is at once taken out of the field of controversy, he said. Another big point to work of a council of social agencies, Mr. Crox- ton declared, is that it enables a city to think out its community problems a whole. It is natural for organiza- tions to belleve that their particular problems and programs are the most important, but the council of social agencles gives a better understanding of community problems, and shows clearly how all can best meet the ritu- ation. He detailed work done In Co- lumbus on dental clinics, in recreation and In unemployment. “It is fatal If a council undertakes to do some work that an agency should do,” Mr. Croxton asserted. “That community is richest which has the greatest number of citizens interested in human problems,” he continued. He concluded by pointing out that a community, even as an in- dividual, should have “a vision and a program. Accomplishments Told Of. -President Ncwbold Noyes of the lo- cal Council of Social Agencies told of the accomplishments, aims and needs the council, now a year old. He pointed out that the maximum effi- ciency was not being attained at that time by those charged with the dnty|a of “driving care and worry and suf- fering from the District.” s tion of effort was rife, each agency working out its destiny alone. The agencies saw, however, that the fu- ture of welfare work in the District rested pipon the ability to meet face to face to consider problems, and so the Council of Social Agencies was formed.. “The first and greatest accomplish- ment was that we Ancceeded in get- ting together at all,” Mr. Noyes said. “The task has been but partially ac- complished, but we have made a splendid start.” HE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1922. ~ THREE-POINT PLAN PROPOSED AR CIRCUS T0 BE HELD HERE FRIDAY Plane Races, Parachute Drops and Balloon Chase | Features at Bolling Field.. Washington is scheduled to see air- plane races, parachute exhibitions, a chase of balioons by pursuit planes, and a forced landing exhibition at Bolling Fleld Friday afternoon, as part of the exercises in connection with'an inspection of the aviation sta- tion there by the commanding general of the local district. The forced landing exhibition will be the first event on the program at 2:30 o'clock. A ten-foot hurdle will be placed at one end of the fleld, plainly marked off on the flying fleld, its dimensionsibeing 100 feet by 800 feet, representing a small field with obstacles hindering approach. Planes will land over .the hurdle with dead engine, using as little of the fleld as posaible in landing. Five Turns in Course. The race will be for De Haviland 4-B planes with liberty motors. They will take off on signal of starter and circle the course to be marked by navy yard wireless tower and the Washington steel and ordnance plant stacks. The race will include five turns of the course. The planes will finish in a line to be opposite the spectators’ stand. At the finish the planes will land singly and pilots will endeavor to bring the planes to a stop in a previously marked circle. The exhibition of the standard air service parachute will be held at 3 o'clock, when a ‘dummy will be thrown from a plant at 2,000 feet al- titude with the parachuté attached Chase of Balloons. The balloon chase will start when three small meterological balloons re relcased at one-minute intervais at 3:10 o'clock, pilots in three pursuit Duplica- ( ylanes flying in exhibition formation, destroy them.

The council is solidly behind several im- portant pleces of social legislation much needed for the District. ““The council aims to have every welfare agency make its dollars, time and energy count to the utmost,” President Noyes declared. Two Needs Stressed. The two great needs of the council today, he sald, are the whole-hearted devotion of the agencles and the sup- port of the general public.

Satisfaction Expressed. Satisfaction was expressed at the action of the Senate committee on District appropriations in restoring the water supply item in the District appropriation bill yesterday. The resolution pointed out that the appropriation was requested because of the “admitted inadequacy of the present system as shown by the fact that Congress last year authorized the construction of additional faciil- ties and made an initial appropria- tlon in pursuance of this authoriza- on. The resolution reads, in part: *“The delegates to Central Labor Union, rep- resenting the labor organizations for the District of Columbia, urge upon the Congress of the United States the necessity of making provision for the construction of the necessary addi- tions to the water supply system of Washington and that the legislative committee of the Central Labor Union he instructed to bring this matter to the attention of the appropriate com- mittees of the Scnate and House of Representatives. Other Addresses Heard. Addresses on the need of the Di trict in the water line were deliverel by Newton A. James, former pre dent of the central body; Frank Coleman, former secretary, and Joh B.
