A Name for Sixteenth Street.

To the Editor of The Star:
When the words The White House"
were substituted for The Executive
Mansion" at the beginning o. the pres
ent administration. the change met with
universal approval. To complete the good
work the name of 10th street" should be
changed to that Of 1.-The White House
avenue or 1.-The White House boule-
ward" No street in the world bears
either of these names. and consequently
either would be unique and appropriate
for the great thoroughfare that will ex-
tend from the White House almost to the
District line. Other names have been
suggested such as THE Avenue of the
Presidents Executive avenue" Me
ridian avenue Jackson avenue and
Lafayette avenue but if vote of the
people could be taken 1t is reasonable to
believe that THE White House avenue"
or The White House boulevard" would
be adopted by an overwhelming majority.
Some day this magnificent street will
become one Of the most famous avenues
of the world. and now is the time to give
it fitting name. JAMES T.. DUBOIS
