NEW YORK, May 2.—John D. Rockefeller, jr., a Baptist, yesterday agreed to invest $250,000 in the Broad- way 'Temple, a skyscraper project of the Methodist Episcopal Church, pro- vided the remainder of the bonds to be sold to complete the project be dis- posed of by June 1. The structure, a combination sky- scraper church, apartment house and business building, is to cost $4,000,000. Leaders in the project said that the financler’s promise of investment as- sured success, as only $400,000 worth of bonds remained to be sold. Announcement of Mr. Rockefeller's investment was made at a Bankers’ Club luncheon, to whose chairman he made known his proposal in a letter in which he said that the Broadway Temple ‘“gives promise of being a real contrfbution to the solution of men or signs probably will be placed |the problem of the city church.” at_these locations for the present. Mr. Eldridge will have printed next week a digest of the regulations, con- taining the outstanding rules that every motorist will want to fa- miliar with. They will be réady for distribution in about 10 da In appealing to the public today to co-operate in complying with the reg- ulations., Mr. Eldridge issues the fol- lowing statement “In preparing the new traffic regu- lations for the District of Columbia an effort has been made to safeguard and protect the lives and property of our citizens, as well as to facilitate traffic on our street: “The regulations are based upon the experience of the best traffic engi- neers and safety experts in the United States and many of the regulations follow closely the recommendations of the Hoover Conference on Street and Highway Safety. “It is earnestly hoped that these regulations will be so scrupulously observed and obeved that the drastic penalties set up for their violation will not have to be imposed except against t tively small percent- age of reckless and careless drivers who are responsible for these acci- dent “I earnestly appeal to the citizens of Washington to assist in every way possible toward making this a safety ear of which the Nation's Capital an be proud.

PLEASE LEAVE THE | the semi SAYS BUSINESS HAS CLEAR FIELD NOW President Coolidge Asserts No Adverse Legislation Need Be Apprehended. President Coolidge beNeves that the American people in general, and busi- ness in particular, should profit by the present Iull in Washington, brought about by the congressi recess and the absence of any natlo or international problenis of real mo- ment, As the President sees it, the public now has a good opportunity to give undivided thought to the conduct of private business and to other per- sonal matters, and to forget Wash- ington. Determined that American business shall have its share of this breath spell from the uncertainties of go ernmental action, President Coolidge will initiate no movés during the dull period that would have far-reaching effects on business, or the individual, and he hopes that this will have a helpful effect. The President has let it be known that there are no pending questions to worry bout; that uncertainties have been removed as far as possible, and that business men can make com mitments without fear that govern. mental intervention will upset their plans. Considers 0'Connor Plan. Although President (’m-lMp;e has been unable to study carefully the plan of Chairman O’Connor of the Shipping Board to d the American merchant marine through Government payment of part of seamen’s wages, he feels such a neasure warranted only if necessary to provide an adequate na val reserve. If the O'Connor plan merely is designed to help American shipowners meet labor costs, the ad ministration must , determine, the President thinks, whether it is wil ing to aid in payment of seamen’s wages any more than in paying the wages of farm and factory labor. Con- vinced that the proposal simmers down to one entirely of benefit to national defense, the President, be- fore giving any encouragement to the scheme, would want the views of the Navy Department. Secretury Wilbur declared the N would be glad to consider the C nor proposal, but indicated that many factors were involved in building up a naval reserve that he could not express a definite opinion on the merit of the plan for some time. The de partment, he added, was giving spe al attention to development of an adequate aval reserve, and consid- ered the merchant fieet ‘an important eleme n national defens in the training of reservists.
