C. Revenue Suggested Manor Park Citizens Re-elects Lloyd As President Pointing out that Congress is con- sidering new taxes on District resi- dents, members of the Manor Park Citizens’ Association last night sug- gested an increased tax on beer and other alcoholic beverages as a source of revenue. The resolution was presented by George A. Corbin. With the belief that Congress would not act on the additional taxes this session, the group voted to turn the proposal over to its Tax Committee for further study. Lloyd Re-elected President. In the election of officers, Daniel B. Lloyd unanimously was re-elected president; John Scott, first vice president; Mrs. Arthur Kriehmel- meyer, second vice president; George R. Kieferle, recording secre- tary; John H. Stephenson, corre- sponding secretary, and T. W. Buck- ley, treasurer. Delegates to the Federation of Citizens’ Associations are Mr. Corbin and Mr. Scott, who was elected to that post after five ballots were cast. The association adopted the sug- gestion of the Traffic Advisory Council that parking be restricted from 7 am. to 7 pm. to one side of Madison street between Fifth and Thirteenth streets N.W. Playground Restriction Opposed. Restriction of - the use of the north end of the Takoma Play- ground, facing Whittier street, be- cause of the building of apartments nearby was “vigorously” protested by the group. John D. Smoot was instructed to investigate a previous report on changes for the relocation of streets and the need for a traffic light at Georgia and Colorado avenues, Samuel Nugent, chief of opera- tions of the District Work Projects Administration, addressed the mem- bers on the work of the W. P. A. and its efforts to provide “gainful employment to persons in their par- ticular skill” Mr. Nugent told the group that success of the program depended on the civic and other associations co-operating with the W. P A The meeting, held in Whittier School, was the final meeting of the civic season, the June meeting being canceled. $53,430 Is Reporfed In Union Mission Drive C. E. Bogardus moved closer last night to permanent possession of the silver cup for the highest scor- ing men’s team in the 'Central Union Mission drive by taking the cup for the second time. The silver cups presented at each report ses- sion to the man and woman with the highest daily totals will go per- manently to the teams with the best showing in the entire cam- paign. The totals reported at last night's dinner at the Calvary Baptist Church have gone to $53,430, repre- senting a busy week end for the team workers in the $100,000 drive. W. W. Everett, general chair- man, presided and the opening prayer was pronounced by Dr. Ches- teen Smith. Mrs. W. E. Andrews was awarded the silver cup for the highest total in the women’s division. Mrs. How- ard E. Tompkins and Miss Elizabeth Wilson were announced as new banner teams. These are teams making their $1000 quotas. The women’s division now has five ban- ner teams. Miss Charlotte Darrow, honorary life-time president of the Evening Auxiliary of the Women’s Guild, heads the first division to g0 over the $5000 mark.

Calvert, president of the Northeast Conference of Citizens’ Associations, last night called for the erection of a trans-city express highway to serve the two most Wwidely used entrance and exit routes in Washington. Speaking at the final meeting of the Kenilworth Citizens’ Associations, Mr. Calvert stated an elevated or underground four-lane road would relieve traffic congestion throughout the District, would lessen accidents and do away with the many dangerous inter- sections. “Let me point out,” Mr. Calvert added, “that Northeast Washington is the ‘gateway to the Capital’ and should therefore be beautified in every way possible.” The association favored the plan for a new Abbott Vocational School §n the Northeast section, although t disapproved of the proposed Brentwood Park site because of its small acreage. * ‘The president appointed a com- mittee to investigate the Barnes property behind the old Bennings Race Track at Benning road and Barnes lane N.E. for possible ‘de- velopment. Mrs. Mabel M. Hubbel, in a motton, requested the commit- tee to contact the Bennings Citi- zens’ Association and the River- view Terrace Citizens’ Association regarding the property. The motion was carried. A letter to the Federal Housing Administration also was authorized in respect to the tract. Charles M. Maize, Earl E. Dillon and Mrs. Hubbel were named on the committee. ‘The group indorsed Representa- tive Sheridan’s bill to investigate small loan practices'in the District. The association met in the Ken- {lworth School. . ), s THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, TUESDAY, MAY 7, On Guard Maneuvers chief of staff, yesterday ssked em- ployer co-operation during National Guard maneuvers this summer in permitting their employes to ‘par- ticipate in the proposed longer training period. “The War Department is keenly conscious of the fact that the men of the National Guard must make the principall sacrifice, and for that reason alone we are hopeful that their employers will, co-operate to assist us in meeting the situation,” Gen. Marshall said. “We are in the situation today where we have to improve the training of all our people, and the National Guard constitutes 75 per cent of our initial protective force. We have no choice in the matter, the world situation being what it is today, but to increase National Guard training from two to three weeks.” | ComelIn...
