MAJ. BELL STUDIES PARKS AND WATER Makes Personal Survey of Tracts Urged for - Purchase. Maj. J. Franklin Bell, new Engineer Commissioner, has begun a careful study of two of Washington's princi- pal needs, namely, development of the park system and installation of high pressure water mains in the business section for fire-fighting purposes. Accompanied by Assistant Engineer Commissioner Wheeler, Surveyor Mel- vin C. Hazen and Fred G. Coldron of the Board of Trade, Maj. Bell yester- day evening madé a personal tour ofy existing parks and the territory of | proposed extensions, * l He indicated today that he looks upon the acquisition of park sites as safe investments. Can Sell Land. ““You cannot very well go wrong,” said the Commissioner, “because if land is bought for a park and later develop- ments make It unnecessary you can always dispose of it." The major displayed a keen interest in the proposed connection of the <Rock Creek and Potomac kways, which has been under way for a num- ber of years. He also showed him- self famillar with the effort that has been going on for a number of years for the purchase of the Klingle Piney Branch and Patterson New Trafiic Lane. . The new Commissioner views the linking of Rock Creek and Potomac parks as an aid to traflic conditions us well as a park drive. He pointed out that it would afford a new trafiic | lane to the downtown section from | the rapidly growing northwest suburbs. As to high-pressue fire mains, the | Commissioner is seeking to find out | whether it would be wiser to go ahead with that project or seek more and better-equipment for the fire de- partment. first Commissioner Bell is handlipg the new estimates of the engineer depart- ment In a most systematic manner. | After reading the requests of a de- partment he goes In person to that department's offices and gets first- hand information as to the need for each item. i Changes in Stations of | Army and Navy Officers Of Interest to Capital Army.

Fine Treat for Stargazers . In the Heavens Each Evening The summer constellations are com- ing into their best positions in the heavens for stargazers these summer evenings. S The great constellation Scorpio and Sagittavius are in the south, amid the splendid mass of star-clouds which ‘marks the direction of the center of our galactio universe. Along the “milky way,” the great wonder of.the heavens and the Insoluble mystery for the as- tronomers of all the ages, we.come at this, the beginning of the summer sea- eon, to Aquilo and Cygnus, with Lyro 0 the west overhead, then down through Cepheus and Cassipea to the horixon. In the eastern part of the heavens the most conspicuous group Is ; in the southwest are Virgo and Libra, with Jupiter and Saturn brightening 'the-a up; in the west Bootes and Hercules, the latter high in the northwest Ursa major; in the north, Ursa minor and Draco. Planets in Good Position. The planets of our system at the be- ginning of the summer are in first rate positions for observation and stus elther in the evening or early m hours, when there is & quiet and peace- ful lull in all the movements of the natyral as well as jn the astronomical world.

You think you are a worthy man, you would not rob a_traiu, you would not steal your neighbor’s van—such crimes give you a pain.

Charges of irregularities in office again#t Thacker V. Walker, com- mander of George Washington Post, No. 1, ploneer unit of the American Legion, will be aired at = special meeting Monday night. Lew S. Moh- ler, first vice commander and acting commander, called the meeting to begin at 8 o'clock. It will decide the strength of charges against Mry Wal- ker following a complete Investiga- tion. The charges concern Mr. Walker's action several weeks ago, when he i3 alleged to have signed an appli tion for the creation of a woman' auxiliary to George Washington Post without the consent of the member- ship. It is charged that this action followed a meeting of the post on June 5, when the membership, after hearing a discussion on the subject, voted that no action be taken until February, 192 I e In Wording. At is further contended that iir. Walker in signing the application scratched out the words “approved by SHPS ENEN RGHT TONEDGALIQUR Treasury Ruling Permits British Vessels in Italian Trade Carrying Stock. . The Treasury has Issued regulations permitting foreign ships to provide medicinal supplies according to laws of the country in whose trade the vessels are operating. Under these new additional regu- lations a British ship engaged ex- clusively in Italian trade will receive allowances of Intoxicants sufficient to comply with the laws of Italy. If a vessel's passenger and cargo come from several countries, each of which has laws requiring liquor stores the general medical supply will be grant- ed and specific provisions of the sev- eral laws will be met in addition. The decision- resulted from repre- sentations made by the owners of the Cunarder Tuscania and the White Star liner Arablc through the British em- bassy. Each ship came In conflict with the laws of Italy requiring wine stores for steerage passengers, and thelr owners appealed to this gov- ernment for relfef. Public health service doctors, in passing on the liquor applications of the two vessels, apparently had de- termined to allow only the quantities prescribed for medicinal uses by Brit- ish law, Inasmuch as both were fiying the British flag. The Italiads among the steerage passengers demanded the wine which the laws of their home land said they should have, and the decision of the Treasury today makes it possible for them to have it in the future. _— ATTORNEY G.

This application Waus sent to Mrs. R. E. Foster, presi- dent of the District of Columbia American Legion Auxillary. Following the sending of this let- ter, Mrs, Thacker V. Walker, wite of the post commander, called up fifteen women eligible to the auxiliary and apprised them of the plan of form- ing an auxiliary to George Washing- ton Post. Following this talk Mrs, Walker was chosen temporary presi- dent of the new auxiliary. Ar. Walker admits signing the ap- plication for a charter of the auxil- iar but maintains he acted In a legal munner and in good faith. He brands the criticism as the work of enemies and due to post politics, He declared that he had not resigned, but has merely vacated the chalr of Jured yesterday, when thelr motor car struck a sand pile and turned turtle. McGrath’s skull was frac- tured and It is feared he also was internally injured.

S. Bureau Accepted as ] Lesson to England. Attracted by the success of the bu- { reau of naval aeronautics in adopting a 300-hour operation of airplane en- gines of the official test, Aeroplane, an English aircraft journal, calls on British engine makers and the British alr ministry, in a recent issue, “to see that in this vital matter we are not left behind by America—as we have ai- ready been in respect to aeroplane performance.” The comment, which was made pub- lic by the naval aeronautics bureau here, says: “The point, however, is that whereas in this country the of- ficial type tests call for only 50 hours’ running, America has declded that a much more severe test is desirable and can be fulfilled, and in adopting this morg severe test it has set itself to provide engines of a higher stand- ard of reliability than can be cer- tainly secured under present British { regulations.” “It {s somewhat fashionable in this country,” continues the journal, “to be sarcastic concerning. Ameri air- craft construction—and there is some ground for this attitude. But, after all, despite their curious ways, the American aeroplane and engine design- ers are gatting results, which is the thing which matters most at the pres- ent stage.” PLEA FOR $2,000,000 FUND. Budget Director Asked to Approve Eastern Forest Purchases.

The assoclation declared that lum- bermen were fully alive to the need for forest conservation and that the: continued purchase of reserves would be “a good investment” Owing to fire hazards, taxes and general finan- clal risks, It ‘was declared, the east- ern mountain forest lands eligible to purchase under the Weeks' law ‘“‘can- ‘not reasonably be expected to be Kkept in forest productivity by private enterprise.” —_— ‘Women are generally classed as the weaker sex, yet the average woman who goes about her ordinary house- hold tasks in a conscientious way, say those who clalm .to have figured out the problem, performs feats of strength and enduraneé that would put many a so-called strong man to shame.
