CITIZENS PROTEST SITE OF ABATTOIR Southeast ‘Association Also Urges Hesse Be Succeeded | by Man From Ranks. Abe Martin Says: R MR ¢ o ER, iy Nf} N y Afl’fi}fi)m /"\./- A resolution urging that the new | superintendent of police be chosen from the personnel of the department was | adopted by the Southeast Citizens' Asso- | cation, meeting at the Southeast Branch of the Public Library last night. John C. Ritter, who introduced the resolution, said he had canvassed a | great many business and civic organi- zations in the city and had found that the general opinion favored a man from the ranks to succeed Maj. Hesse. A resolution protesting against erec- tion of a slaughter house within “smell- ing distance” of the city was adopted in answer to a letter from the Women's | City Club, now conducting a campaign against the abattoir proposed in nearby | Virginia. Car Merger Is Seen. H. W. Lynn, chairman of the asso- | ciation’s utility committee, predicted | Congress would pass the pending street car merger either at the special session next month or at the next regular ses- sion in December. “A merger is the only thing that will prevent a flat 10-cent fare,” said Lynn. C. G. Degman suggested that a per- | manent home for the Vice President | be located in Southeast Washington to | give dignity to that part of the city which is the front of the Capitol. He also proposed that the Government con- demn the “frame shanties” and other objectionable buildings within a stone’s | throw of the Capitol and build homes in their places, to be sold at cost. Degman urged that some of the mil- | lions spent for reclamation projects be | used to beautify this “front yard" of the Nation's Capitol. Brick Sidewalks Hit. The association vigorously argued about the condition of the old red brick sidewalks in the Seutheast, but decided that no action should be taken unless each individual block petitioned the Commissioners for concrete pavements. R. J. Jones declared the maintenance of girls’ riffe teams in the public high schools was a waste of both time and money. He argued that the girls should be taught housekeeping and cooking and not spend their time “shooting away” the taxpayers’ money. | Capt. William E. Luckett, well known | Fotomac pilot, spoke at the mreting. A. G. Herrmann, president of the association, presided. ORDERED TO ICE FIELD. Army Bombing Planes to Attack | North Dakota Gorge. ‘Three Arm\' bombing planes, which have been ordered to Bismarck, N. Dak., to bomb an ice jam in a gorge below the city, left Bolling Field early this morning for Dayton, Ohio, after being held here all day yesterday by bad weather. The planes took off at about 8 o'clock this morning and started West in for- mation under command of Capt. Willis H. Hale. A broken rocker arm in one of the motors of an LB-5A bomber piloted by Lieut. Marion Huggins, however, forced him to return to Bolling Field a | 4 few minutes after the take-off. A new arm was installed and he took off within a few minutes to overtake the other two planes. sk At Killabane, !rl:lund. where the Manx open-air Tynwalds were held 500 years g0, & stone monument is to be erected. = .

Efforts to improve school, police and sanitary conditions in their territory occupied the attention of the Trinidad Citizens' Assoclation at their monthly mecting In the Wheatley School last night. The “deplorable” condition of the playground of the Wheatley School was called to the attention of the citizens by Miss F. C. Mortimer, newly appoint- ed principal of the school, and led to the passage of a resolution urging the Board of Education to improve the school grounds and renovate the build- ing as soon as practicable. Efforts to obtain another playground | for the community in addition to the one at the school were inaugurated by the_appointment of a_committee co Suggestions for Easter Presents Baby Lambs, Kid Goats, Sing- | ing Canary, Rabbits, Pupples, | Goldfishes, _ Parrots, Monkeys, Chicks and Ducklings.

C. Nealon, to endeavor to procure a suitable site in_the Trinidad district. Immediate installation of traffic lights on K street and re're-l of the regulation requiring automob to display a park- ing light on well lighted streets, was asked in a set of resolutions dealing with traffic conditions. ~Charles E. Marx, author of the parking light reso- | lution, contended that police were need- ed for more important duty than tag- ging unlighted machines. Complaints that trash was being per- mitted to accumulate in unreasonable proportions on the dump at the end of Montello avenue resulted in the adoption of a resolution requesting the District Commimoners to remedy the | insanitary conditions there. | Other resolutions gave the indorse- ment of the association to William McK. | Clayton for Public Utilities Commis- | sion, and conveyed the sympathy o(‘ the group to the family of Miss Miriam J.
