District Citizens Can Aid In Making City Beauty Spot BY REP. CLARENCE J. McLEOD, House Committee on the District of Columbia Washington has always heen known as a city of parks, trees and flowers. Much can be done by the Government in its park work to keep up this fine reputa- tion. Each individual citizen can contribute his share by jsesolving to make a beauty spot of the lit- tle plot which he controls. The collective effect of this work, 1if carried out generally and con- scientiously, will be immeasur- able. ‘The results that have been achieved in the last few years in sections of the city where the work has been organized and car- ried out urider the stimulus of the local community organizations indicates positively what can be accomplished. The outlay of a” trivial sum of money and a little effort will convert the most un- kempt parking into a garden spot which will make the owner proud of his home. Clean-up week suggests these thoughts to our minds and fur- nishes an opportunity for every resident to exert that small indi- vidual effort which in aggregate will be sufficient to place Wash- ington beyond all question in the position of the most beautiful city in the world. Observe Clean-up week, May 19-24, 1930. WRECKED CAR FOUND ALEXANDRIA, Va.,, May 15.—Police this morning found a badly wrecked automobile up against a pole on the | causeway along Hunting Creek, here.
