IN ANNUAL SESSION.
Employers Association Elect Officers
for Ensuing Year.

The annual meeting of the Employers
Association of the Building Trades was
held recently. when the following officers
were elected for the ensuing year: Presi-
dent, Samuel ]. Prescott: first vice presi-
dent, E. c. Graham: second vice president

executive committee is to consist of the
above with the addition of Samuel Bilson.

ISOLATION of the Building Trades report
largely increased membership in each of
their organizations and the organization of
the employers generally on the most sub
stantial basis that has ever existed in this
city.
In addition to the trades already organ
lied 1t is said to be particularly crafty
ing to the employers to know that several
new branches have formed permanent or
CARNATIONS, and 1t is evident that the en-
p,oyers of the building industry intend to
stand together.
From the expression of opinions of the
experienced employers. there appears to be
no particular antagonsm against organized
labor as long as the conservatism exhibited
in the past by the employees is maintained
While there is no apparent reason to eX-
pect a labor disturbance of any consequence
in the future. the disposition of the
employers, it is said is to have their or
ganiZation in such shape that should they
be called upon to show their hand ii will
not be necessary to go through the prelimi-
nary steps of getting together" 1t is the
universal opinion that the best assurance of
industrial peace Is to be prepared for
war
During the past year The officers of the
Employers Association have quietly gone
among the members and raised fund
which is held In reserve for use in any con-
tingency that may arise. They feel that the
financial side of their association is of vital
eJ,,,
protracted struggle their colleagues in
some other cities have been compelled to
contend with.
1t is particularly gratifying TO the man
agement to know that the employers and
employees in Washington realize that their
interests mutual and that working
agreements must be made by joint agree
ment and not in the shape of ultimatums
from either side

Rowdv Street Car Conduct.

To the Editor of The Star:
I noted with a mixture of apprehension
and satisfaction the announcement that
the Anaccstia Citizens Association has ap-
rofntcd a committee on the suppression
of boistcrous conduct on the part of c'I-
ored visitors to IIilsaale resorts Appre-
henson was due to the fact that we, as Z
neople are more often adjudGed by coior
Than by conduct and so the innocent are
Geharred from pleasures and privileges
which they have every right TO enjoy thitt
the guilty may be punished. 1t Is poSslpls
that unless the committee of the cltizCh9
ASSOCIATE makes careful discrimination III
this matter our last state may NC wa
than the first. 100
The satisfaction felt by me was because
of the hope that something may be done
to suppress the obnoxious conduct or ;t!hc
mot alb of the colored people who visit the
Uillsdale resorts and who have respect TOT
no one-they seem, indeed, to take especial
delight in annoying and insulting quie'
and orderly members of their own race
have often wondered why yelling, rlpaid
remarks and actions positively indecent,
which would cause the immediate arrest OK
the perpetrators If INDUCED in on the
streets should be tolerated time after time
on the street cars.
TIVE self-respecting colored people, not
or1v of Hillsdale, but of the entire Dis
trict have been repeatedly put TO Shame
nv such conduct: many refrain from even
ing street car rides during the heate1 'eilu
because of this state of affairs we are
not merely annoyed-we feel disgraced ard
rumiliated by it, and will welcome any
inst measures that will put an end to II.
Possibly if street car conductors WeI. Ia.
structed to eject Immediately all dlsor-
darIx persons or cause the arrest OF the
same at the earliest opportunity the desired
end would be obtained.

POLLUTION OF POTOMAC
CIRCULAR CALLING ATTENTION
TO LEIGHTON REPORT.

Thousand of copies of the report made
on the subject of the pollution of the Po-
toraac river by Marshall O. Leighton OF
the geological survey are being distributed
in Maryland and Virginia under the SUI
pervision of Maj. Richard Sylvester, the
District game warden. They are being sent
to residents along the line of the river
because it is believed the most good can
be done by persons living in this territory.
Accompanying each report is letter
signed by DIR. William z. Young, secretary
of the Fish and Game Protective Associa-
ton. The letter is addressed to each per-
son who receives a copy of the report and
reads as follows:
Your earnest attention Is invited to the
accompanying recent report of the pollu-
ton of the Potomac river and tributaries
as made by Mr.. Marshall Q. Leighton OF
the United States geological survey. After
acquainting yourself with the information
contained therein you will readily under
stand the interest of this and kindred bust
ness organizations in the District of Co
lumbia in taking up the subject with you.
The unfortunate conditions recited are ex-
tremely detrimental to health, destroy fish
life and detract from the beauty Of the
stream and its surroundings.
Result of Contamination.
"At one time tourists were attracted from
all parts of the country to this section.
The residents of Washington, Baltimore
and other cities found pleasure in passing
their summers at the hotels, boarding
houses and farms situated along the Po-
tomac and Shenandoah rivers. They en-
joyed the rivers in their natural beauty
and delighted in finding plenty of fish in
their waters. Factories and other sources
of contamination are rapidly destroying
these pleasures and the patronage which
goes with them. The associations of the
District propose to lend their efforts to i'm
