WASHINGTON, CARDEALERS WAR ONLIABILITY PLAN | Automotive Body to Fight Proposal for Compulsory Insurance. Automobile dealers of Washington are unequivoca opposed to com. pulsory automobile liability insurance, [and are pledged to act unanimously against any proposal to enact such | slation in the District. This posi tion of the Washinzton Automotive Trade Association was established at {its regular monthly meeting, held last nizht in the blue room of the City Ciuh. Sales resistance, particularly in the rase of low-priced used cars; disbelier in it as a safety measure and Wash ington’s peculiar position in relation | to use of its streets by foreign cars were the chief reasons developed fo |ovposition. Stanley Horner, president of entire group as kil compulsory it raises its head.

Walter Guy, counsel for the as- ion, developed points in relation |(0 compulsory insurance as a safety | measure and the District's position {in respect to foreizn cars, Referring to the latter, he declared that the law | would bhe rendered ineffective here be- cause at any time a large proportion | of the cars on the strects would be uninsured in that they would not be subject to local jurisdiction.

Mr. Vane also spoke on dealers prohlems—used cars, excessive com petition and necessity of eaoperation, “Unless there is a new development | {in_car merchandising. the dealer is | (licked.” Mr. Vane declared, pointing | ! out that the dealer is powerless ln meet his increasing problems without | | full co-operation of manufacturers. | | Overproduction is the cause of the "plight in which the dealer finds him- | self today. the speaker declared, and. unless the producer can he made to | see this fact, he said, eventuaily the manufacturer would find “the problem | of retailing his cars back on his own | Wallace to Be President. | Edward M.

The speaker emphasized that the amazingly fine words of th: lyrics written hy poets of that perio? deubt less influenced considerably the v.rit- ing of the music, so that it, too, reach- ed heights. Several records on tha phonograps were used to bring certain points duving the mk,” - “ROMANCE OF THE HARP.” 'he Romance of the Harp,” pre- sented by Katherine Riggs, harpist, and Florence Howard, soprino, in the apel of the Georgetown Presbyte- n Church last night, was the sub- ject of the first program of the Georgetown ten-event course, which, under the direction of Mrs. Wallace Radcliffe, is being given for the third consecutive year. The course in- cludes many interesting lectures, some of which will be illustrated by films, The program was divided into three parts, the first including a short his- tory of the harp and several ancient ant songs with harp accompani- ment. These were rendered by Klor- ence Howard, assisted by Katherine tiggs. The group Included “The Sun. rise’s Course,” a Latvian melody; the troubadour's ‘song, “It Was in May,” he Russian love song. “Little Patrus,” was particularly well done, Miss How- |ard’s clear and powerful voice show: ing to excellent advantage in its rendi- tion, “The segond part of the concert con- sisted of two mumbers, presented. In the same manner as those in the pre- ceding group. They represented the more madern type of music, the first being “Sweet Maid,” composed in {18 and the second, “I Am Thy Harp,” by Woodman, a present-day composer. The harp was heard alone in the last group of selections on the pro- gram. Miss Riggs gave an excellent interpretation of Hahn's *Beautiful Memories,” while her other two num- hers, “The Fountain” and “Harp of the Winds,” proved equally as good. These selections were offered as e amples of the type of music peculiarly adapted to the harp. 0 Gen. Rosenbaum Assigned. Brig. Gen. Otho B.
