Baker and Willlam S Torbert, have been renominated, but declined to run again, although they are in sympathy with the work of the couneil. Capper Favors Change. Senator Capper. chalrman of the Senate District committee, comment ing on the work of the Citizens' Ad- vistory Council as it approaches the close of its first year of existence, ex- pressed the belief that the idea of such an agency is a good one. but he feels the method of choosing the mem- bers could be improvel upon. The councll would be a more. rep- resentative body. he said, if the coun- climen were voted upon by the mem- bers of the neighborhood assocfations, and not by the Federation of Citi- zens' Associations. Commissioner Bell was optimistic. “I think the council has done ex- cellent work in connection with legis- lative matters and with recommenda- tions on matters to Ko budget bureay he said. “For the length of time it has been in existence and the natural handicaps under which it came into being it has per- formed notable service. Thinks Development Needed. “It is a matter for the people of the city to take hold of and develop. The council's advice has been fre- quently sought by the legislative body and is esteemed most highly. It much better for a properly constitut- ed organization representing all the citizens to present a united front be- fore Congress than for individuals to | appear who frequently represent’ only themselve: Active opposition to the council ad now constituted is led by the Georgetown and the Dupont Circle assoclations. Capt. Clayton Emig, speaking for the executive committee of the Du- pont association, declared: *“We de- cided to ignore the council because it has wandered far afield from the purpose for which it was established. We no longer want to be bound by its decisions. “Members, as now elected, are busy earning their own living and cannot felsm of the | the Dis- | the | - | nization difficulties | Heights, | n and Elzie | the !

Hereafter, the Dupont Association shall act for itself. We have no, quarrel with any member of the coun- | ¢l but we cannot approve the sys- tem."

In his effort to keep down govern- | mental expenses, us the only meuns o avolding a possible deficit because of | the tremendous reduction in taxes, President Coolidge is to have the sup. port of the House, if Representative | Tiison of Connecticut, Republican ! leader, has anything to do with it. | Mr. Tilson is anxious to see Con- gress fall in line with the President's desires, and from now on he intends | to use all his Influence as floor leader { to keep down appropriations.

From the Youth's Companion A Scoteh lad, having taken a prize in 8 difficult examination, was con- fronted by his teacher, who doubtfully: “Who helped you your question paper, James?" “Nobody, sir.” | “Come, now, my boy, I know all about your capacity and abilities, and I know you never answered those questions alone. Tell me honestly, now, didn't your brother do part of the work James, after some deliberation sir, he did it all.” asked with Auto, Fire Plug, Fence and Emily Bear Witness Intuition Can’t Run Car mily Morris may have had great faith in her womanly intuition. Per- haps this may have served her well in crises of the past. But it failed sadly yesterday, as she came to grief, trying to teach herself to drive the automobile owned by her husband, Samuel Morris, colored, janitor at 1400 Fifteenth street. The voice and hand of its master that car may have knotvn, but not that of its mistress. Her husband had departed on fn errand, according to Emily, who re- lated what happened between excited breaths later on. She looked at that little sedan, and she just couldn’t re- sist the impulse to climb in and see if she could make it go. Of course, she didn't know what all the levers, and pedals and things were for, but | she cauld try. She tried. The car started. Somehow It was all different from what Emily expect- ed.
