Capt. Morrow's Experience.

Can't Morrow, although comparatively
young man. has had wide experience In
engineering and he has filled his position
as assistant engineer commissioner with
marked ability. He Is man or wonder
full physique, pleasing personality, and Is
regarded as an engineer of sound Judgment
and as an official with wonderful execu-
tive ability. 1t Is said of him by his
brother officers In the army mat ne never
made an official blunder or mistake. He
Is an enthusiastic believer in the future
greatness of the national capital and has
done much toward the project of making
Il a city beautiful. He Is popular among
those under him, and Is a devotee of out
door sports While at West Point he play
ed on the base ball team and the foot ball
team and after graduating he was the
coach of the foot ball team for several
years.
Capt. Morrow has received his promo
ton and the many congratulations with
becoming modesty. saying that he never
expects to administer the office as sue
cessfuily as did his predecessor.
When speaking upon this subject this
morning to a number of officials who We're
extending their good wishes to him. the
captain genially remarked:
II don't expect to be as valuable to the
District as Col Biddle. but am a higher
priced official, In that IL viii cost the Dis
trict considerably more to have me on the
q captain and the District will have to
pay me more to make my pay equal to that
of a colonel. than they did my predecessor
because he was major. However, this
will only last until November. as attain
my majority then.
Commissioner Morrow's hrst official act
