THE EVENING STAR. WA‘SHL\'GTO.\'.vD, C.. TUESDAY. NOVEMBER 2, 1926. Rival C;ndidates PLAN T0 CONDEMN LAND FOR STREETS Board Members Prepare for Widening Good Hope Road and Alabama Avenue. Plans for the condemnation of suf- ficlent land for the widening of Giood Hope road from Eighteenth strect to its junction with Alabama avenue, and for the widening of Alabama avenue from this point to Pennsyl-| vania avenue are in course of prep- aration, it was announced today fol- lowing a meeting of the co-ordinating committee of the Natlonal C(hpital Park and Planning Commission. These two highways for the greater part of their length now are only 33 feet wide. In view of the fact that they carry very heavy traffic as feed- ers to Maryland highwa the com- mittee believes that they should be made 110 feet wide. Plats Being Prepared. Melvin Hazen, surveyor for the District, and a member of the co- ordinating committee, is ing pre- pared the necessary plats, which will be sent to the legal department of the District to form the basis for the con- demnation proceedings. which will be filed in the District Supreme Court in_the near future. The committee also approved the recommendation for the condemna- tion of land for the opening of Cri tenden street northwest from Piney Branch road to Sixteenth street. Hazen will prepare a plat for institu tion of condemnation proceedings in sase also. The land which is to ubject of condemnation pro- has not vet been improved by any buildings, and it is the desire to open up this street before any home construction Is started. The committee will recommend to the District Commissioners tkat they hold public hearinzs about December 5, on the suggestions of the co-ordi- nating committees for certain high- way changes, which already have been referred to the District heads, Other Changes Planned. 1t is the desire of the co.ordinating committee that the hearings he held around that date in order that the decision on any or all of them may be ready before the meeting of the National Capital Park and Planning Commission, on December 10. These changes included Utah ave- nue, in the Cleveland Park section: a change in Hillside road so that it will not pass through Fort Dupont, and to move Ridge road slightly 1o the’south to preserve certain trees in OF OYSTER SHUCKING District Will Allot Space in New Building by Permit, Con- trolling Charges. Price regulation in the local oyster- shucking_industry will be practiced by the District Commissioners with the opening shortly of the free mu- nicipal shucking shed, now in course of completion at the fish wharves. Individual shuckers will be given space in the new shed gratis, provided they take out a permit from Supt. of Markets George M. Roberts.

The shucking price went up P last year after promulgation of Health Officer Fowler's order that all shuck. ing be done indoors. This put a ban on the old open shed at the municipal wharves and forced some of the deal- crs to get more expensive shucking cilities. With the hew free facilities in effect, the public will be able to buy oysters direct from the boats and hire a shucker for a nominal sum, it is point. ed out. The new shed will be inclosed with tile and provided with an ample supply of hot and cold water. 30-MILE SPEED RATE SET FOR 16TH STREET BY STREET CAR, DIES Robert Ward Succumbs on Way to Hospital—Two Hurt in Accidents.

QUEEN S INITIATED INTO INDIAN TRIBE Courage Test and Ride on Buffalo Robe Fail to Up- set Royal Guest. By the Associated Press QUEEN MARIE'S SPECIAL TRAIN EN ROUTE TO SPOKANE, November 2.—Queen Marie sped across Montana today with a blood spot on her finger and an eagle feather headdress as evidence of her rank as woman chieftain of the Sioux Indian nation. She was mads a blood sister and “war woman" of the tribe at cere- monies in Mandan, N. Dak., yesterday. Before placing the feather bonnet on the Queen’'s head, (‘hief Red Toma- hawk, master of ceremonies, reputed slayer of Sitting Bull, took one of the Queen’s fingers and,"with a sharpened flint, pricked the skin. Blood ap- appeared, but Marie only smiled. The test of courage was satisfactory, and the symbolic bonnet was placed on her bobbed tresses. Ordinarily, the designation “wap woman” is given to Indians only when they have distinguished themselves on the field of battle. In the case of Queen Marie, the Indians recognized her services to Rumania during the World War as meriting the highest rank the tribe could bestow.
