Argentina and Brazil not only set an he United States in capi- but also adequate ing capital maintenance sing political as well a8 example to building, tal in and ungrud; and in dispe 1 equity nations capitals have been heerful contributors to municipalitics anc to their and relation liberal se in the ny respects self-ggverning, fully sented the national govern- ment and energetically advanced by the nation in commercial and indus- rey in trial prosperity resources. As Americans we are with reason proud of what the Nation has done in the upbuilding and equitable main- tenance of the National Capital with- in the last 50 years, and e: pecially within the last 25 years. As Washing- tonians we regard with grateful ap- preciation the patriotic and public- | spirited labors of the faithful among " | our constitutional legislators, who in unselfish devotion to a task at times | apparently thankless have raised the . Nation's ward from the gutter of uni- | versal derision and contempt to the | | pinnacle of world-wide admiration and | | honor, and who have made of Wash- | | ington not merely the City Beautiful, | but the City Healthful, the City In- | teliectual and, comparatively speaking, | the City Good. Since 1878 the Nation, faithfully adhering with few excep- tions to the jmplied compact of the organic act and wisely liberal in de- veloping on artistic as well as utilita- rian lines the national public building | equipment of the Nation's city, has | made a record in capital building and | maintenance of which no American | needs to be ashamed. | 1In view, however, of the correspond- |ing achlevements of other nations, like | Argentina and Brazil, we have no | right to be arrogant iIn our pride as | capital builders, either in the line of | creation or of maintenance and de- velopment. Lessons in Capital Maintenance. The attitude of the national govern- ment toward Buenos Afres and Rio re- spectively has been such as to reduce to an absolute minimum the capitals’ need of and appeal for financial co operation by the government; never. theless a maximum of such co-opera- tion has been cheerfully rendered. (1) Argentina and Brazil have in| every conceivable way increased the abllity of their capitals to raise tax money. The United States has, on the other hand, habitually reduced the tax-raising capacity of Washington. The South American cities are great and rich In taxable resources, and their wealth and commercial and in- dustrial prosperity have been as vigor- ously promoted by the nation as by their own enterprise. Washington is and has been always poor in taxable resources and has been crippled com merclally and industrially by deliber- ate national policy. In the interest of Baltimore, Rich mond, Philadelphia and other neigh- boring commercial cities Congress has, historically, discouraged Washington's commercial and industrial growth. It has deprived the Washingtonian of | the means of self-support found in the local industries that develop in the ordinary American city. It has con centrated the great local industries, corresponding to the factories, mills and manufacturing plants of other cities, in the hands of the Govern- ment, and then by the apportionment- of-offices law shuts out from the classi- fied service in these great national-lo- industries all who claim Washing- a a residence, including the grow- Thus Congress industries of ton 4 ir youth of the city denies the'Capital its own; it shuts out W; from the natienal-local industries drives out from the city the youth that they may find els {the means of self-support: or by ac- | quiring legal residence abroad may hecome eligible for employment by the Government at home. Obligation Follows Power. Argentina and Brazil have tak- m their capitals only that degree of control which is absolutely essen- tial to protect the national interest; here the Nation reserves to itself ex- clusive and despotic control. The Jouth American capitals are in impor- tant respects self-governing, with a | distinet municipal government and f representation in nation 1 _BOV- ernment. With us the Nation is in absolute control of the Capital in every particular, with exclusive legis- lative, executive and judicial power, and the Capital is not self-governing in any respect whatever, and not in the smallest degree represented in the National Government. Here the mu- nicipality does not even tax itself in forms that it prefers, and does not ex- pend its tax money for the purposes which please it. The Nation decides how much money shall be exacted in taxes, and in what manner it shall be raised and expended. (3) Under these conditions the na- tional appropriations for capital main- tenance in Argentina and Brazil are public-spirited and patriotic donations which may reasonably vary in amount at the pleasure of the donor. In their financial relations with the nation the South American capitals are the prin- cipals, and the nations are liberal and voluntary contributors. In the northern republic all the power and the primary responsibility are with Congress, representing the Nation, which is unmistakably the principal, and Washington is the incidental con- tributor—the compulsory contributor of an amount fixed not by it, but by Congress. Thus the South American natlons have made their capitals rich and able to pay heavy taxes; have permitted them in large measure to control their n taxation, and then have, in addi contributed handsomely to their imaintenance. With us the Capital has ” in wealth and taxable | THE EVENING trol of its taxes, and has besn kept impecunious and with a minimum of ability to pay taxes by the consistent policy of the Nation. which for the firs vears of the city’s life openly shirked its own equitable financial ob lizations to Washington. | “Little in capital maintenance been equitably expected from South American government wave given much.

The South American facts and figures are taken almost entirely from the bulletins and other publications of the Pan-American Union, which, under the capable management of Director Leo S. Rowe and Counselor Franklin Adams, is performing an international function of the highest usefulness. Argentina meets Buenos Aires' ex- penses in the items of police depart- ment, fire department. docks and har- | bors, water supply and sewer system, the more important works of public sanitation, and the greater part of the expense of public education. On the | Buenos Aires police department alone | Argentina_expended in 1907, for ex- ample. $2,700,000. What has Brazil done voluntarily and cheerfully for national capital up- building and maintenance The national expenditures on Rio are notable. In rebuilding the city, beginning in 1903, the nation made for this purpose a foreign loan of $40,00 000, the city a domestic loan of $20, 000,000. The national department of public works carries on the public im provements of city and harbor. Be- tween $200,000,000 and §: ,000,000, according to varying estimates, has al ready been expended on Rio. The po lice force is on the national military basis. Illumination of the city is pro- vided for in the national budget. The botanical garden is supported by the national government. Brazil Jjoins with Rio in the work of public edu- cation. Rio is the industrial heart of Brazil Most of the great natural res: center in it and in some way ute to it. It is made by the nation commercially pros rich, strong in taxable resources. Washington has en the original commerce of its site reduced almost to nothingness. It has been crippled and retarded in in- dustrial growth, and its taxable re sources have been reduced to a min- fmum. Wanted: National Representation. What have Argentina and Brazil granted to Buenos Aires and Rio in self-government and national repre sentation? Buenos Aires is both a municipality and the capital of the Argentine Re public, and as such has an organiza tion as a city as well as an intimate | connection (like that of Washington) with the federal government. The | latter assocfation is maintained by means of an official called the in tendent (municipal), who is appointed by the president of the republic, sub ject to the approval of the Senate, for a term of four years who receives a salary. He performs to a great degree the function of mayor in an American city, and is to a large extent amenable to the rules of the deliberate council, a body elect- ed by ballot of citizens on the popula- tion basis from 20 parishes, into which the city is divided. It corresponds in most detalls to an American common council. These officials serve without pay for a term of four vears, one half of their number being elected | every two years, however. Buenos Aires s fully represented in propor. tion to its population in the national| Legislature and the national govern ment in general. Buenos Aires thus divides capital expenses and control of municipality | with the nation, and has full repre. sentation in the national government in accordance with its population Washington divides capital buflding | expenses with the Natlon, but has no share in control of its municipal af. fairs and no representation whatever in the natlonal Government; which absolutely controls it. Political Equity for Rio. What has Brazil done for Rio polit ically? Rio and suburbs constitute the federal district of the United States of Brazil. The municipal or ganization of the district 1s controlled by the national government, but the ht of the 900,000 inhabitants to a 1oice In the management of local af- fairs 1s safeguarded in two ways: (1) The district is represented in the Congress of Brazil by three Senators, elected for nine years, and by ten dep- uties, elected for three years; (2) a city council of ten members, elected by direct suffrage for a term of two ve The council meets in ordinary session twice a vear. The chief exec utive of Rio is the prefect, who holds office for four years, and is appointed by the president of the republic and confirmed by the Senate. Bra and Argentina have followed the example of the United States in establishing federal districts and na- tional capitals distinct from the states and controlled in the last analysis by the nation. But Brazil and Argentina have improved upon our exampie by has the they been under capital on republican, democratic and representative principles and in ac- cordance with the dictates of fairness and patriotic pride. In both Buenos Afres and Rio the people of the na- tional capital have representation like other citizens in proportion to their | numbers in the national government. In both nations they participate through a council in the disposition of their municipal concerns. In both capitals the nation controls the mu- nicipality and through the national president appoints the chief executive official, 2 mayor with large powers. Wise Local Municipal Government. T do not intend by these compari- sons to suggest that I believe that the Inited States should surrender mu- nicipal control of the Federal District to the people who live in it. In no other capital in the world is so large a percentage of the real estate owned by the Nation. As long as the Na- tion kept among its laws and faith- fully carried out in letter and in spirit the half-and-half agreement of 1878 it was a half-taxpayer in the National Capital municipality. Through Congress it absolutely and exclusive- 1y controlled municipal concerns, and Its decigions, if they received the ap- proval of any one among the local taxpayers in the 50-50 era, represent- ed the will of a majority of the tax- payers; something not accomplished in the large American cities, where, as a rule, under the application of the principle of unlimited manhood suffrage to municipal concerns the tax money is collected and expended by the organized non-taxpayers com- pacted under the leadership of “boss- es” into aggregations often criminal, always irresponsible. *Why Not National Representation?

The Americans in the District of Colum- bia, constituting much more than the average number of Americans repre- sented by each member of Congress, exceeding In population seven of the tates; living within well defined geo graphical limits and possessed of more than the average of Intelligence and &)0d citizenship; paying all national taxes, direct and indirect, and re- sponding to the Nation’s call to arms in time of war, are entitled on gen- eral principles’ to representation in the National Legislature, and would enjoy It if this Legisiature were not also their exclusive local or municipal Legislature. This fact, instead of barring them from representation, ought to be viewed as giving them a double right to such representation. Of all Americans they would seem to be most entitled to a Legislature which is their own nationally to the same extent as in the case of all other Americans, and which is in addition their exclusive State Legis- lature, their board of aldermen and common council Why should not the United States follow the example of Argentina and Bi il in giving the capital repre. sentation in the national government, in the Congress, which is to the capi tal both national and local legislature? What possible injury can the nation suffer from permitting this American representation? What possible plausi- ble excuse can be devised for deny- ing it? In 1910 I believed with many obsery ers that the South American repub- lics, while excelling as city builders, failed in some degree as the builders of representative republics obedient to the w and ruled by ballots and not bul , and were thus deficient in practical appreciation of the true principles of representative govern ment. May they not, on the basis of our handling of the problem of repre- sentation in the National istrict of Columbia, turn the us and suggest that in fhis matter we betray that we have no real appreciation of those principles ourselves? If _the republics of Argentina and Brazil can spend millions on their cap- itals and retain ample national con trol of these cities of the nation with- out either oppressing the local com- miunities with excessive taxation or humiliating them by denunciation as mendicants or robbing them of their ights of representation in the nation- al government, may we not expect that the greater and wealthier and prouder republic of the United States of America will in the end be as equitably considerate both of Wasl ington the capital and of the nearly haif million defective and defenseless | Americans who now live in it? | LANDING FROM FLEET IN HAWAII MAY BRING NEW ISLAND DEFENSES | “ontinued from First Page.) cluding the Panama Canal.

The attacking fleet forces were known as | the “Blues,” while the defending land forces were known as the “Blacks.” All three attacks were preceded by a preparatory barrage by bombers of the “Blue” ships and a subsequent landing, which was accompanied by heay osses” on the part of the Bl The landing parties, how were to a certain extent suc cessful, in that they occupied siderable number of “Black trenched places The main attack of the “Blue” fleet was delivered shortly after the zero hour—dawn—between Waialua and Kawaihapai, where a large num ber of “Blue” troops landed success fully, desplte heavy “casualties.” The ianding forces took up an initial posi- tian on the beach preparatory to de- veloping arrangements for assaulting the “Black" defenders farther inland Some casualties to the “Blue” forces resulted from the heavy surf, which made landing difficult. From this standpoint it would have been to the advantage of the “Blue” forces if they could have arrived two days ago, when the sea was calm. The attackers were met by heavy fire from machine gunners, rifles and mobile artillery, the latter being placed in fields so as to make the lo- cation of the guns difficult to ascer- n from the sea. The weight of numbers was on the side of the “Blue" force, and the “Black” first line of defenses fell back to previously prepared positions. Re- inforcements which had been pressed forward to that sector by the “Black” commanding general failed to repel the “Blu2” attack. The entire engagement was marked by intense aerial activity on both sides, considerable damage and casual- ties being inflicted, of which no ac- count has vet been determined. The umpires are now considering the conflicting claims of the high com- mand of both forces in an effort t ascertain who won the “‘engagement. The exercises were the most exten- sive ever attempted by the United States Navy and Army.’ The defen- sive forces consisted mainly in troops, although several naval vessels and air- planes aided. For the purposes of the problem, the Hawaiian Islands, specifi- cally the Island of Oahu, were assumed to be in the hands of an enemy force, the “Blacks.” The United States fleet. with a skeleton landing force of Ma: rines, Was sent out from San Fran- cisco to “capture the islands.” Contact between the “Blues” and the s” was ‘established Saturday morning. The objective of the “Blues” was to capture Oahu, on which is lo- cated the Pear] Harbor naval station and the city of Honolulu, seat of the territorial government. Pearl Harbor is the only base of its kind in the islands. The “war” between the two forces, handled mostly by airplanes and sub- marines, continued throu~h Saturday and Sunday. Before dawn yesterday a group of Marines managed to land on Oahu. The theoretical capture of the Haleiwa followed within a few hours and the “war” was declared over.

The Washington Board of Trade will begin at once another campaign for the installation of a high-pressure water system for fire protection in the downtown section, At a meeting of the executive com- mittee of the organization yesterday afternoon David M. Lea, chairman of the board's insurance committee, was unanimously instructed to urge upon the District Commissioners the ur- gent necessity of including the high water pressure systeon in the estl- mates to Le presented to the new Con gress. The committee also authorized Mr. Lea to obtain the co-operation of all the civic and trade bodles in the District. Cost $1,500,000. The installation of a high-pressure stem in the proposed area from First to eighteenth streets and from K street to the Mall would cost approximately $1,500,000. 1t is proposed to spread this over a period of three years with an appropriation of $500,000 each year. The Board of Trade has already writ- ten the Commissioners asking them to include this item in their next esti- mates. The establishment of the system would call for the enlargement of the water mains in the downtown area and the erection of a pumping station on the river front The Board of Trade feels that the System would result in great economy. 1t states that it would preserve fil- tered water for home consumption and permit the transfer of much ap paratus now in the downtown section to sections now without proper pro. tection. Large decreases in fire in surance premiums in the downtown area and protection of Government buildings containing valuable records are also features. Has Wide Support. Mr. Lea, who states that the Na tional Board of Fire Underwriters will actively yrge the high water pressure system here, left for New York last night to confer with authorities on the subject. More than a vear ago practically every clvic organization in the Dis trict_exnressed its desire to see such a system in the downtown area. The Evening Star at that time sent letters to every Senator and Representative urging the passage of such an appro priation, and received scores of favor. able replies PRE-WAR LIQUOR FALLS T0 1,600,000 GALLONS Maryland Supply Virtually Cut in Half Since Dry Law Be- came Effective. spatch to The Star BALTIMORE. 15,000 barrels started April 2§ of pre-war here vesterday Removal whisky The was | whisky is being moved from the Con- centration Warehouse Co. to the Bal timore Distillery Co., and the transfer is on orders from David H.
