* PUANTOREGULATE BRIORE TRAFFC Commissioners May Decide on Viaduct Approaches for , Georgetown Structure. VIEWS GIVEN IN LETTER D. C. Heads, at Board Meeting To- day, Nominate William H. Hunt- er for West Point Appointment. jventually it will be necessary to cause all traffic to enter and leave the new Georgetown bridge on road- ways crossing M street on elevated viaducts, the District Commissioners believe. This view was expressed in a letter sent today by Daniel E. Garges, sec- retary to the Commissioners, to Ed- ward M. Tyler, 1336 New York ave- nue. “Until these viaducts can be pro- vided, the plan whose execution is eontemplated, would apparently be sufficient for traffic needs that now can be forseen.” to him, has been agreed upon per- manently and will remain until ex- perience demonstrates that changes in it are necessary. Use of Automoblle Declined. The Commissioners at the board meeting today decided not to accept the offer of Matthew G. Lepley, an architect of 1402 I street, to loan his autorsobile to the building inspec- tor's office one day a week to assist the inspectors in performing their duty. The Commissioners thanked Mr. Lepley for his public spirit, but ad- vised him that they believe it will bo unnecessary to accept private vehicles because they hope that Con- gress will sée its way clear to grant the present allowance for the trans- portation of building inspectors. They stated, however, that should condi- tions later justify an appeal to the publie, in mind. Name West Point Cadet. The Commissioners decided tol nominate Will Hamilton Hunter of 1881 Newton street for appoint- ment to the Military Academy at West Point to fill an existing vacancy. Two other boys were selected as alternates, viz.: William Perry Pence, 1862 Mintwood place, and John Edgar Revelle, 480 G street southwest All bids for the erection of a build- ing for the police and firemen on whart No. 6, on Washington channel, were rejected as being too high. The lowest bid was $12, 5 The Comunissioners today directed Maj. F. S. Besson, assistant engi- neer Commissioner, to prepare plans for the establishment of a motor transport service for the District gov- ernment. The tentative plan is to have one central bureau, from which all branches of the municipal serv- ice would obtain passenger cars and trucks for the performance of official work., At the present time each de- partment has its own vehicle. Central Office Preferable, It is thought, however, that all of the vehicles could be used to better advantage if sent out from a Cen- tral office. The Commissioners today directed officlals of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal to replace the bridge which crosses the canal at Jefferson street, Georgetown.

Senator Phipps, tomorrow will make a survey of various projects for school build- ings and playgrounds in the District. The subcommittee <completed its hearings on the bill late yesterday afternoon. Senator Phipps said, how- ever, that some persons opposed to having a home for feeble minded lo- cated at Blue Plains, D. had asked further hearings.

MAN Rev. P. J. Byrne Departs Today for New York to Sail Via France January 23. REV. P, J. BYR! A Washington man, Rev.’ P. J. Byrne, has been selected to be the first English-speaking Catholic mis- sionary to Korea. He will leave here today for New York city, whence he will sail on January 23. He will go to France for some special work be- fore proceeding to his destination. Father Byrne is a son of the late P. J. Byrne, who was foreman of binding at the government printing office. The priest Is a graduate of Eastern High School. Following his ordination to the priesthood he entered the American Catholic Forelgn Mission Soclety and became a professor at the theologl- cal seminary at Maryknoll, N. Y. Leaving there, he was appointed rec- tor of the preparatory college at Scranton, Pa. Although founded only a- decade ago, the mission society h: rapid progress and now gonduats schools for Japanese and Chinese in the United States, as well as caring for a mission field in South China, When the Korean mission was as- signed to this society by the Pope Father Byrne was chosen to go as su- perior, to make arrangements for his co-workers who will follow. * been informed, he said, that the com- mittee has all the data in regard to this matter before it. However, if they are insistent the hearings may be reopened to give them an oppor- tunity to present their arguments. It is unlikely that the Senate sub- committee will begin actual work of rewriting the District bill for several days. Senator Phipps said that some of the members of the subcommittee were engaged upon hearings on the independent offices appropriation bill Furthermore, it Is said, it was de- slred to give the Senate an oppor- tunity to dispose of the farm cerdit legislation now before it, and for that reason the District bill probably would not be hurried into the Senate.

It is known that the Senate committee is disposed to be liberal in its treatment of the District. Cuti'cura Talcum o 28 i AR, Pennsylvania A h Goldenberg Jos made { | 1 | | ! THE EVENING .

Dear Folke— I've seen many successful paigns for funds launched and carried out in the little old District of Co- lumbia durin’ the past four years, from aidin’ the starvin' children of Ireland to helpin’ bring the Shrine Tmperial Session here next Jume, but if ever a movement got away to a better, start than the drive for $500,- 000 to erect a mew central buildin' and nurses' home for the Garfleld Me- morial Hospital, which left the barrier yesterday afternoon at 12:30 o'clock sharp, then it ain't been my pleasure to be in at the send-off! ‘With_the big ballroom of the City Club filled to overflowin' with the cream of Washington’s representative citizenship, all champin' their bits for the signal from General Chairman Clarence A.

Jim was close followed by five ather captains of the ten included in Gen, G. Thomas Dunlop's division, whose teams, accordin’ to their own captains' statements, had collected the first day the followin' amounts: Roy Neuhauser, $310; Stanton E. Peelle, $500; Morvin Thompson, $394; Paimer Derby, $300, and Howard Omo- hundro, $150! . T'd better add right here that aside from the executive and wimmin's sections the vast army of mere-men workrs is divided into three divisions, of ten teams each, each division bel under direct orders of a general, the three Big Minnehahas bein’ the afore- mentioned Mister Dunlop, Corcoran Thom and Newbold Noyes! Precedin’ reports from Gen. Thom's men, the genial leader explained that owin' to the sudden call from town of John L.

Call, $100; Willlam Ma- ther Lewis, $270, and J. Curtis Walker, $338. . Not to be outdid by a few paltry figures, Gen. Noyes then gave the high sign for his men to cut loose, and in voices that augured well for the success of the campaign, M. K. Armstrong_shouted, “$300!” close fol- lowed by Franklin K.
