EXCEPTIONS TO LAND AWARDS
SOUTH OF AVENUE OWNERS TO
BE HEARD.
Monday Set Apart by Justice Stat
ford for Arguments Against
Commissions Findings.

Justice Stafford in the District Court
will devote the entire session of the court
next Monday to hearing arguments OF
counsel for the owners of property in
the five squares south of Pennsylvania
avenue between 18th and 18th streets
who have filed objections to the awards
of the commission which assessed the
values of the land. The time for filing
exceptions to the award expired last
night.
OF the seventy-five parcels of land COM
prised In the area sought to be con-
demned the owners Of thirty-nine parcels
have objected to the prices fixed by the
commission. The other thirty-six owners
are apparently satisfied or are at least
willing to accept the appraisements.
The exceptions run from the inadequacy
of the price to the constitutionality Of the
act under which the proceedings to con-
denim the land are instituted On
the question of the unconstitution-
atty of the act it is urged by
counsel for some Of the owners that the
act leaves to President Taft the final
decision as to the taking of the prop
erty.
The act. by reference to a former act.
provides that the President shall. il he
thinks the public interest requires it.,
cause payment to be made to the respec-
tive persons entitled according to the
judgment of the court" This. it is claim
ed, puts the owners to great expense
and loss. with no certainty that the prop
erty will be taken. even il the appraise-
ment should be confirmed by the court
Only two exceptions on the part of ten
ants have been filed. William F. Hall,
saloonkeeper, at 18th and street north
west complains that the valuation pla ced
by the commission on his leasehold in
terest is too low. insufficient and not
just compensation. b. w. Parker, at
torney for the Grand Opera House Com
pany, which leases the entrance to Chase 8
Theater. through premises 1924 Pennsyl-
vania avenue, claims that the commission
failed to appraise the value of the unex-
pired term of that lease.

Resolution Adopted.

There. was meeting of the Chamber
Of Commerce last night at which the
body adopted the resolutions OF the spe-
cial aviation committee Is already out
lined in The Star. These resolutions
pointed out the availability of Washing
ton as place for holding the meet. and
suggested the advisability of a congress
sional appropriation to help out the fund
1t has been arranged that the commit
will have the selection of the site for the
next meeting will be appointed by Presi-
dent CORTLAND Field Bishop some time
this month. New York will be bidder
for the meet. and she unquestionably can
raise more money for the event than any
other city. But to prevent the appearance
Of favoritism to New York by the Aero
Club of America she will have but one
representative the committee which
will select the city.
It was learned last night that there
would be two leading considerations in
the determination of the committee. The
first will be the availability Of the diff
ferent cities competing; that the nat
ural advantages of the sites offered. In
this consideration New York will be at a
great disadvantage because Of natural
conditions. such as proximity to the sea.
the interior city being preferable because
of less wind. The other consideration will
he the amount of money raised for the
prizes to be offered. The prize money
must be sufficiently large to attract await
ors from all European countries and from
Canada and perhaps Australia as well.
New York will be able to raise large
sum. The event will attract hundreds OF
thousands of out-of-town people and as
usual New York will throw out hundreds
in money to get back thousands.
Won't Cut Much Figure.
The influence OF Curtiss and Wright
will count for little with the committee.
except In so far as their statement OF the
usual weather conditions about New York
city will serve to bar this town from the
contest. Their experiences with high air
currents here have been far from happy.
President Bishop will probably name on
his committee one New Yorker, one west
erner ard one member representing the
combination of Washington and Balti-
more in favor of the College Park site.
il is intimated that Representative Her
bert Parsons, a New Yorker, who favors
College Park, will be on the commission
on the selection of a site.
This commission will visit dozen cit
les between New York and the PACING
slope. inspecting the various sites sug-
gested. The Pacific coast and far western
cities are not likely to cut much of
figure in the contest for the reason that
European aviators would not care to
have their flying machines transported
across the American continent solely for
this one meet after they had shipped
them across the Atlantic. The advantages
of the College Park site will be consid-
cred in the light of these facts. Euro
pean contestants who might balk at try
ing for the prizes in Seattle Or Los An
geles would readily enter for contests in
city within five hours of New York.

BY Boiling Grease = Skin All Came

CURED WITHOUT A
MARK BY CUTICURA

About a year and eight months ago
my baby, aged ten months, was sitting
on the mat beside the fender and we were
preparing the breakfast when the frying
pan full Of boiling grease was upset and
it went all over one side Of the babys
face and head. One of the family ran
and wiped the scald with towel and
you may think what a mess she made,
pulling the entire skin off. We took her
to chemist who told us to get doctor,
which we did. He tended her week
and gave me some stuff like lard to put
on. But it all festered and / thought
the baby was disfgured for life. A
woman close beside me told me to try
Cuticura Ointment used about three
boxes and it was wonderful howl healed.
In about five weeks it was better and
there wasn't a mark to tell where the
scald had been. People used to ask me
if that was the baby that was scalded
and they would hardly believe me when
] told them she was and what cured her
face. Her skin is just like velvet and
have never been without Cuticura since.
