Met 8337, ¥ Begins CITIZENS PROTEST NAMING OF CROSBY Burroughs Group Disapproves Selection of Military Man as Commissioner. Appealing for strict adherence to the | intent tnd spirit of the organic act } | covering the appointment of District | g Commissioners, the Burroughs Citizens' | Association, meeting in the John Bur- roughs School, last night adopted res- olutions disapproving the selection of | a military man as Commissioner and urging the appointment to the Board of Commissioners of two civilian citi- zens of the District of Columbia, at least one of whom shall have taken active part in organized citizenship ac- tivities. Although Maj. Gen. Herbert B. Cros- | by's name was not written into the res- | olution, in a lengthy discussion, which | at times became heated, reference was made to him personally. Criticize Faulty Laws. While those in the minority avowed that “there is not the proper discipline exerted which is necessary on the part of a police Commissioner,” the pro- ponents of the resolution contended that failure on the part of past Com- missioners has been due to faulty laws rather than with incapacity of the men. It was asserted by some members that even though Gen. Crosby will revert to civilian status on his retirement from the Army, should he be appointed the military discipline to which he is ac- customed would be reflected in his ac- tions and they predicted a military flavor in the conduct of civic affairs which would be distasteful to civilians, they said. Urges Monroe Street Improvement. A bill pending in Congress propos- ing the widening of Monroe street pass over the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad tracks and the closing of the grade crossing at Michigan avenue was dis- approved by the association. Resolu- tions presented by Kenneth P. Arm- strong and adopted urged the elim- ination of the Michigan avenue grade crossing, but not at the expense of diverting traffic from it to Monroe street, which, it was said, would not accommodate the increasing traffic to and from Maryland and the Northeast suburbs. It was pointed out that the District and €ongress have failed in their expressed policy of eliminating one grade crossing a year, and as this point is one of the most hazardous in the city it should receive immediate attention. m for lnleundence Day. It voted stage a monster Fourth ot July celebntlon on the John ‘Burroughs School playgrounds, the per- mit for which has been granted this association, it was said. The execu- tive committee was designated as a committee on arrangements and was directed to seek the co-operation of the Rhode Island Avenue, Michigan Park, Dahigren Terrace, Brookland and oth- er civic and parent-teacher associations to help make the event truly repre- “F Street at Seventh” THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.
