Charges that People’s Counsel Wil- liam A. Roberts is not a true counsel for District residents were made by Charles A. Davison, chairman of the Public Utilities Committee of the Manor Park Citizens’ Association, and denied by Mr. Roberts at a meeting jof the association last night at the Whittier School. For 11 years the Manor Park group has fought for double tracking on Kennedy street instead of the present single tracks, with occasional turnout switches—this being one of the three purposes for organizing the body in 1923. The latest action taken by members was to adopt a resolution at the November meeting favoring imme- diate double tracking of the street from Third street to Georgia avenue. The resolution further proposed that half of the street cars, now traveling down Fourteenth street, would be shunted down the Georgia avenue line Rerouting Meeting Branded. Mr. Davison explained that Mr. Rob- erts has set a public hearing on re- routing for tcmorrow night, whereas he has already submitted many re- routing proposals to the Public Utili- ties Commission. “I resent the peo- ple’s counsel professing to state the views of the public when ‘all of the Citigens' Associations in this area have taken opposite views to his expressions on the Kennedy street project,” Davi- son declared. Davison stated he has seen a rough | draft _of the rerouting proposals in the Public Utilities Commissioners’ offices and said the people’s counsel has stricken out the Kennedy street double track project. Mr. Roberts said it would be an easy matter for the people’s counsel to wait until all the citizens' asso- ciations have acted and then submit | proposals in agreement with them, thus escaping much criticism. How- |ever, he feels his proposals are for the benefit of the greatest number of persons throughout the city. Before the last rerouting hearings were closed last month, he said, no word had been heard from William McK. | Clayton of the Public Utilities Com- mittee of the Federation of Citizens Association. However he has heard from many individual property own- ers along Kennedy street, who have { objected to the proposed laying of a double track on the ground that it would decrease the value of their property. They pointed out, Mr. Roberts said, that the necessary wid- | ening of Kennedy street would cut | back into property facing the street. Says Car Line in First. J. D. Smoot, financial secretary of the association, declared that the car line was on Kennedy street when most of the residents moved there and “now is no time for them to object” to this proposal. “In the last analysis,” Mr. Roberts stated, “you people will get the serv- ice you are fighting for.” He added that it is natural for the transit com- ipany to increase service to its pa- | trons in any manner that will result {in an increased use of the car and | bus lines, The president, Ernest H. Pullman, |delegated W. H. Seaquist to attend the hearings tomorrow night to for- mally present the association's view- point. A resolution, introduced by Mrs. G. A. Corbin, which did not approve Dr. Frank W. Ballou's proposal that promotion of pupils be dependent upon their state of health, was amended to definitely express opposi- tion. On motion of Mr. Seaquist, however, the matter was referred to a committee. W. G. Duke told of plans for or- ganizing a new association near the southern boundaries of the Manor Park body. After considerable dis- cussion as to whether the Manor Park Association represents that area, Mr. Seaquist moved that the organization meeting be attended by mempers to ascertain what the boundaries of the proposed association are to be. Three representatives were appointed to at- tend the meeting for report next month. RICH GOLD-SILVER STRIKE REPORTED $3,500,000 Claimed Paid by South African Company for Cali- fornia Option. By the Associated Press. LOS ANGELES, December 4 —The Times says one of the richest gold and silver strikes since Goldfield and Tonopah, Nev., in the early 1900s has been discovered in the vicinity of Mojave, Calif. The original strike, the Times says, was made by George Homes, 32, former University of Southern California stu- dent. Gold Fields of South Africa is re- ported by the newspaper to have taken an option on 36 acres of the Holmes claim for a reported $3.500,000. Holmes and his father are said to own 60 per cent of the claim, known as the New Silver Queen. It is about 7 miles from Mojave. RABID PARTY PRESS DECLARED DYING OUT Yale Speaker on Journalism Calls It Good Thing for Public and Politics. By the Associated Press. NEW HAVEN, Conn., December 4.— The days of the hard and fast political party organ in newspaperdom are numbered, Maurice S. Sherman, editor of the Hartford Courant, said yester- day, asserting that it is a “blessed thing for journalism and the public it serves.” Sherman delivered the Bromley lec- ture on journalism at Yale University, with President James Rowland Angell presiding. “On many occasions,” Sherman said, “a party has suffered from the ove: zealousness of its newspaper advocates, which by the extravagance of their praise and the vehemence of their at- tacks only made converts for the oppo- sition.” The speaker paid tribute to Adolph Ochs, publisher of the New York Times, for setting higher ethical standards for trustworthy and non- partisan news reports and high stand- ards in the advertising columns. —_— Business, Topic of Discussion.

The branch is located at 1816 Twelith street. was asked yesterday by Postmaster General James A. Farley. The Postmaster General, speaking at the dedication of the new Federal Building here, assured the public, he was not seeking a cessation of crit- icism, and neither was he apologizing for the administration. An appeal to new members of Con- gress against pledging support to spe- cific economic theories was made by Farley, who added that “We have just elected a Congress that is the living symbol of the people’s confidence in Franklin D. Roosevelt.” He predicted less partisanship in the new Congress than in any preceding session. Pay Next Year Cash Your Christmas Savings Check At the HUB Easy Credit Terms!
