v v BEE 1 H STREET PARKING LIVIT CONSIDERED Hour Rule Between 2d and 15th Before Traffic Director Harland. Establishment of a one-hour parking restriction on H street northeast be- tween Second and Fifteenth streets | and a number of other amendments to the traffic regulations were taken under consideration yesterday by Traffic Di- rector William H. Harland. The changes, Harland announced, were ap- proved by the District Traffic Council at & meeting Priday night. The parking limit on H street, Har- land pointed out, has long been advo- cated the business men along that thoroughfare, and indications are that he will approve the restriction and recommend to the Commissioners its inclusion in the traffic code. The limi- tation under the prorpomi regulation would be effective from 8 am. W 10 p.m. s Other Changes Indorsed. Harland also is expected to approve the other changes indorsed by the council. The majority of them are of ?1m1nor nature. The most important ollow 1. Removal of the rush-hour parking prohibition on Thirteenth street ve- tween I street and Massachusetts avenue. 2. Designation of Wisconsin avenue between M street and Massachusetts avenue as a boulevard highway. 3. Abolishing parking on Rhode Island avenue northeast between Fourth and Twelfth streets during the morning and afternoon rush hour. Parking would be permitted on the south side in the morning, however, and on the north side in the afternoon. The proposed restriction would apply to the north side from 8 to 9:15 a.m. and to the south side from 4 to 6 p.m. 4. A new regulation prohibiting parking in front of any barricade erect- ed for the purpese of closing streets or alleys. 5. Restoration of Hiatt place as a two-way thoroughfare. Thoroughfare Widened. ‘The rush hour parking restriction on ‘Thirteenth street between I street and Massachusetts avenue iS no longer necessary, it is believed, since the thoroughfare has been widened between these points. The rusl hour parking ban on Rhode Island avenue was r?m. posed, it was said, ta relieve a se: condition created jointly by the- heavy traffic on this important traffic artery and the. center trolley poles. The inclusion of Wisconsin avenue between M street and Massachusetts avenue in the list of boulevard high- ways, will make this thamuf.hnf‘nre safer , traflic 1 be placed at all intersecting streets which will require east and west bound traffic to halt before crossing or enter- ing the avenue. The speed limit would not be increased, however. The 30- mile-an-hour limit is established only on thoroughfares designated as arterial highways. Take Advantage of Signs. BOLIVIANS GREET HOOVER IN CHILE Delegation Received at Bril- liant Function on Maryland at Antofagasta. By the Assoclated Press. U. 8. 8. MARYLAND, EN ROUTE TO VALPARAISO, December 8.—A| brilllant function on the after deck of | the U. 8. 8. Maryland anchored off Antofagasta, Chile, today marked an exchange of expressions of good will be- | tween President-elect Hoover and For- eign Minister Alberto Palacios of Bo- livia, personal representative of Presi- dent Hernando Siles. Besides Dr. Palacios and other mem- bers of the Bolivian cabinet, the funce tion was attended by the President and members of the House of Depulies who made the long journey from La Phz across Chile so that Mr. Hoover might receive in person felicitations from the inland republic durinf his Latin American good will mission. Mr. Hoover requested Dr. Palacious nally to convey to President Sfles is regret that the inexorable limit of time made it impossible for him to 0 to La Paz and to express his apprecia- tion of the cordial sentiments of the Bolivian government toward both him- self and Mrs. Hoover, He added that friendship between the United States and Bolivia had been cemented on many occasions. In his address, Dr. ealacios told M. Hoover that his visit would “establish a historical moment in the fraternal relations of both Americas, establish- ing new rules for the common compre- hension and understanding of the spirit- ual aspirations and material interests | of our continent.” Chilean Ship Salutes. Anchoring off Antofagasta a little after 9 o'clock this morning, the Mary- land was saluted by the Chilean cruiser Chacabuco, which continued her escort after the American vessel sailed for Val- paraiso this afternoon. The Maryland is due at Valparaiso early Monday for the end of the West Coast part of the Hoover tour. i The good will ship’s company in dress uniform manned the rail while the marine guard was at salute as oup after groufl of distinguished of- icers and officials came over the side. Capt. Jullo Merino, commander of the Chaukbuco, was the first to be re- celved. He remained with Mr. Hoover for half an hour. Then 20 American residents of Antofagasta were received by the Presi- dent-elect on the quarterdeck with Mrs. Hoover, Ambassador Fletcher and other members of the Hoover party. A group of Chilean officials was next re- ceived with full honors. These includ- ;‘}o Jullo N{Avemh‘e, m‘t‘end&\lu of t{xe vince of Antofagasta; .

MARYLAND (By Mail) —Traditional discipline of the United States Navy aofi the :hl"nan ? mnn-o'-war .w:onvmm into & of peace an will, at pain it must have caused some of the Navy's veteran salts to see a troop of discipline-flouting landlubbers take ession of one of Uncle SBam's proudest battleships—and to know they must be tolerated with the utmost re- spect! Newspaper men, for example, aro notably deflant of the conventions, ac- cording to books and plays, and this deflance includes Navy rules and regu- Iations, all and sundry. With nearly 40 representative correspondents turned loose on one ship, untrammeled by of- fice routine, their work lightened by radio limitations and their restlessness aggra; the heat of the tropics, it was inevitable that service morale should suffer. Maybe the Navy, itself, was partl; to blame for the situation in whicl it found itself. No sooner had the -will party boarded the U. 8. 8, land than each member was hand- ed a nicely phrased pamphlet of wel- come and information, addressed “To our guests.” ‘Our mission of this cruise,” the pamphlet said, “is to provide a safe and comfortable puasage to the Presi- dent-elect and his g y. ‘To this end the facilities of the entire ship are placed at r disposal. ““The officers and crew of the Mary- 1and consider it the greatest honor ever bestowed upon the ship to be selected for this duty, and every hand will his utmost to make this cruise success- ful and enjoyable for you.” Room Boys Furnished. Purthermore, each guest was advised he would have a room boy who would make the bed, handle the laundry, run errands and otberwise serve as a factotum. Most amazing of all was the warning that the room boys, who are Filipino enlisted men, “are not ex- pected to accept tips, and. expect none.” There was just one unhappy note to the whole thing—the statement that meals are not served in the staterooms. This was quite a blow to some of the habitual late risers in the press con- ent. thBll the facilities of the ship were ex- plained from the canteen, where one could purchase anything from a razor blade to a camera, to nightly movies on the quarterdeck, showing the very latest fea‘ure productions from Hollywood. There was a stern injunction in the little circular. It read: “Air ports below the main deck are very close to the water line and must be kept closed at all times at sea and in port.” Most of the newspaper men overlook- ed that little paragraph altogether, it seems, for the ver; them did on establishiny thelr quarters was to unserew the nuts sealing the port and let in the air and sunshine and spray. TInspection officers scratched thelr heads when they found out about this bragen violation of orders, but they said nothing. ‘They scratched their heads some more, and enlisted men shuddered, when later they saw members of the party use the side of a seaplane cata- pult as a board on which to chalk up the score in a golf-putting contest.

One of the cleverest stunts was the broadcasting of & special radio program, dedicated to the Maryland and her guests. Announcement was made in ad- vance that the program would be re- cefved direct from station WRO in ashington by means of a special short-wave experiment. All the corre- h, | spondents appeared in the dining room promptly at the hour designated, to- gether with Allan Hoover, other mem- bers of the official staff and a number of officers. dials of the radio set were ad- justed and finally the voice of an an- nouncer could be heard. He was stat- ing ‘that'“this is a special ‘program broadcast for the benefit of President- elect Hoover's good will ship,” and that the first musical number would be the President-elect’s favorite hymn.

Arthur de Titta, a news reel photog: er, was feeding records to the “orchestra.” One of the boys re- turned to the dining room, grabbed a half-filled glass of water and dashed it through the hole. The program was over. The ship learned that Arthur Hache ten, one of the press association repre- sentatives, was observing his thirty- first birthday. At supper the mess at- tendants brought in a large cake dec- orated with Arthur's initials and year of birth, and filled with lighted candles. The Evening Hurricane also extended best wishes to the correspondent. Quarters Comfortable. ‘The newspaper men found the junior officers’ quarters very comfortable. Two were assigned to each room. Furnish- ings and equipment included two sets of steel wardrobes, desks and chiffon- fers; wide upper and lower bunks, run- | bee; ning water and basin, cushioned settee, chairs, electric fans, etc. The officers' showers were close to the rooms, As the Maryland neared the Equa- tor the room became unbearably hot at night, so folding cots womm- vided on deck for all who to sleep under the stars. Virtually every- body did, except Mr. Hoover's imme- diate group. only drawback to the deck repose was the necessity for arising promptly at 5:30 the next morn- ing with the crew. Decks must be swabbed down before breakfast, and all cots had to be cleared away with- in _half an hour after reveille. By slumbering on deck the members of the party had the opportunity of viewing sunrise on the Pacific—a sight equaled only by a Pacific sunset. Lining the rails in colorful pajamas and pic- turesque dressing gowns, the men gazed spellbound at the o'erspreading fingers of gold and purple and orange and pink that reached out across the heavens with the break of day. Nearby they could see schools of porpolses at play and in the misty distance, to port, were the rugged peaks of the tropical mainland. Only the slapping of a mop at their slippered feet would break that spell and start the group down hatchways to the showers and the routine of another day at sea.

By the Assogiated Press. LONDON, December 8—A most en= couraging statement was issued semi- officially tonight at Buckingham Palace on the condition of King George. It was said that his majesty was certainly in a safer position than he had been a week ago and that he was today on the upward grade. The statement read: “The King has been on the upward grade today after a slightly downward turn yesterday, progress is being made, but it is necessarily a slow and labori- ous progress. During the last week there was great anxiety, due to the fact that the infection involved the whole system. Now the E.h’mhn' are dealing with a localized infection. Recuperation Difficult. “At the same time the position is still one of difficulty because the King has been i1l for nearly three weeks and ‘his recuperation powers therefore are less strong than they were. “During his long illness the life of the King has been at times in danger, but His Majesty is certainly in & safer position than he was a week ago, be- cause the doctors are dealing with a local rather than a general infection involving the whole body. “The King is holding his own, he has Improved since yesterday.

At the same time the commission renewed suggestions made in previous reports that the positions of deputy collector of internal revenue and ‘dep- uty marshal be restored to the classi- fied service. At present only the police and fire departments are under civil service. Much of the work of the commission for the fiscal year ended June 30 last, and since that time has been given to the task of examining applicants for the enlarged prohibition enforcement service. In this work the commission set up new methods of examination, adding character investigation, inqui- ries as to fitness for the job, and other investigations to the usual written and oral tests. So rigid were the require- ments that of 21,129 applicants only 3,530 were declared eligible for the 2,460 vacancies. This number of eligi- bles, however, is insufficient to fill ‘the vacancies, because the eligibles are not located correctly, in a geographic sense. “The commission has previously made no extensive use of tests involving per- sonal investigation of character and suitability, except in the examination of candidates for the position of presi- dential postmasters,” the report said. ~The personnel situation in the pro- hibition service suggested the necessity of subjecting those candidates who met the ?rucflm entrance uirements tortenggmu(h investigation of their ex- l: 3 cmmmwr sgod general nm,;:. such an early hour would Smgou his arrival will be delayer until 10 am., & more convenient hour for London to express its loyal pleasure at the home- coming of the Prince.
