WON'T DISTURB HOSPITALS.
Commander Grifhn's Idea Not Fa,
vored by Commissioners.

That the continuance of any private
hospital already established IN the Dis
trict be conditional upon the consent of
the neigllbors Is the suggestion made to
the Commissioners by Commander r. s.
Griffin. U. s. N. who declares them to be
''squatters."
Health Officer Woodward. however has
frowned upon the suggestion and Com
missioner Macfarland is In accord with
his view.
Il am unable to recommend that the
regulations Governing the establishment
and maintenance of private hospitals be
amended" Health Officer Woodward ex-
plains. so as TO make the continuance
of AL such hospitals on the sites that
they now occupy contingent upon the
wishes of persons living in the vicinity.
Many OF these institutions, such as ProVi-
dence Hosp tai, Garfield Memorial Hosp,-
tai and others. have established expen-
Stve plants on their respective sites. and
IL would be unreasonable | believe 10
put IL into the power of ne:ghbors to re-
auire them 10 abandon such sites. If
any such institution Is in fact a nuisance
the agg-ieved person has his remedy by
civil action.
Under a law and regulations recently
put In force private hospitals cannot be
established In any section without :he
consent of those residing in the neighbour
hood. But the regulations declare that
this provision Shall not apply to any
hospital or asylum which was established

located on the site occupied by j. at the

NEW SUBWAY DRAIN.
II Street Odors Are to Be Elm.
mated Soon.

Plans for the installation of a new sys-
tenn OF drainage in the II street subway
have been agreed upon by the Washing
ton Terminal Company and the Commits
sioners, and 1t is expected the passage
way Will soon be clean and dry.
Ever since its completion residents Of
the northeast have been complaining
about the dampness and the odors in the
subway. Passengers on the cars drew
away from the open windows when they
were riding through II. Pedestrians held
their hurried trip underneath the railroad
tracks. The citizens association met
and passed resolutions saying harsh
things about the passageway, and the
District building received stream of
communications discussing conditions in
language that left no doubt as to the
dissatisfaction of the writers.
As the terminal company had a de-
posit with the District of $4,000 for the
improvement of the subway, the rail-
roads were called upon to remedy the
conditions, and the approved plans have
just been completed for the installation
OF the new drainage system. At the
same time all the steel of the bridge will
be given a coat of paint
"It Is the expectation of this depart
ment," Engineer Commissioner Judson
has written to the terminal company, las
well as your own. that the corrective
measures agreed upon will prove to he
final ones. but this department cannot
agree to any REIMBURSEMENT of it's posi-
ton that the terminal company shall re-
main responsible for any leakage or other
defects in this or other construction over
which II operates.

not touch it. After trying several doctors and
many patent medicines. nothing would cure it
and lost much time from work.

SYRIANS WANT CITIZENSHIP
FIGHT FOR NATURALIZATION
IN MINNESOTA.
Residents of Washington Of That
Race interested in Recent
Department Ruling.

Syrians resident I'm this city are becom-
ing deeply interested in the fight that is
being made by their countrymen in Min
nesota for naturalization and against d
recent ruling OF the bureau of naturaliza-
ton. Department of Commerce and La
Dor. that seems to stand In the way. Re
Gently a. L. Allen, clerk OF the Henne-
pin county district court in Minnesota,
was directed to cancel certain naturaliza-
ton papers issued TO some alleged Turks
and Syrians on the ground that the nat
uralization law of 1906 and the regula-
tions promulgated Hereunder by former
Secretary Straus, September 23. 1907. for
bids the naturalization and the Issuance
OF papers to any but white aliens, and
those of African origin or descent.
What the Department Holds.
Under its Interpretation of the law and
the regulations the Department of Com
merce and Labor holds that not only are
Turks and Syrians not white within the
meaning OF the law but that the prohibit
tion extends for the same reason to Pal
estine Jews, Persians. GeorGians Alba
mans. and natives of India, as well as to
the Chinese and the japanese.
The ruling has caused great consterna-
ton In Minnesota. where the number OF
immigrants of these nationalities and
races is numerous. Mass meetings have
been held and even the clergy have In
jected their force into the fight to be
classed with the white peoples of the
earth.
Assistant Secretary McIIarg of the De-
partment of Commerce and Labor said
yesterday thaC the departments position
in the matter is simply this: According
to its rules of guidance In such cases
these people are not white within the
meaning of the naturalization law. II
the department Is wrong. then the proper
place to decide the question is in the
courts, which alone are competent to au-
thoritatively determine whether or not
