RALWAY DEAND CALLD EXCESIE Southeast Citizens Oppose Payment of Money for Terminal Change. Members of the Southeast Washing- ton Citizens' Association after hearing the de; of the Mount Vernon, Alexandria & Washington Railway C for its “unreasonable” concessions as result of its forced terminal movement because of the Government's triangle bullding program unanimously opposed, in a resolution adopted, the payment of any sum for this purpose. The reso- Jution which was introduced by C. D. an, cheirman of the Law and Legislation Committee, further in- structed Richmond B. Keech, in the capacity of the People's Caunsel, to o] pose such payment in every legitimat manner. It was pointed out that this action was the result of Federal Government movements and should not be paid by citizens of this cxm D. A. Edwards, the first president of the Lincéln Park Citizens’ Association, described the formation of the Federa- tion of Citisens’ Associations. O. J. Davy made a report to the citizens, stating that the traffic lights for pedestrians at Eleventh and Penn- eylvania avenue southeast were inade- quate for street crossing and that the parking in center of the street was dangerous. Mr. Davy also praised the newly installed fire inspection system and said that the firemen were always will- ing to inspect homes. The District Commissioners were asked in a resolution adopted which was introduced by J. C. Ritter that nk and refuge heaps on vacant lots that section be removed. In another resolution by Mr. Ritts the citizens of that section were re- quested to do everything possible to clean the city so that it will look well during the Bicentennial in 1932, The Commissioners were also asked to impose no tax on impovements which would clean or beautify the city beginning March 1, 1931, until after the Bicen- tennial. ‘The resolution was passed. The association also adopted a reso- lution introduced by E. M. David which requested that the Pennsylvania Rail road and the Baltimore & Ohio Rail. road traveling between Benning Power Plant and Eleventh street southeast be instructed to eliminate the burning of soft coal on their locomotives and in compliance with the present law burn coke as a fuel.
