WANTS STRONG WOMAN
TO BREAK UP NUISANCE
Writer to Commissioners SUD-
geSts One Be Placed in
Charge of Capitol Hill.

The immediate neighborhood Of which
the intersection Of 4th and B streets
northeast is the center, has been ter
rorized by band of marauding juveniles
for years." is the statement made by a
resident of that neighborhood in a letter
to the Commissioners today.
The writer Of the letter has but one
suggestion to offer, and that is for the
Commissioners to overlook the negative
efforts Of the police in breaking up the
indians and cowboys of that section,
and to hire a stronghearted, stout-armed
woman to protect Capitol Hill from this
brand of juvenile terrorism.
TO make mention specifically, says
the writer, ''of the offensive acts of these
Indians and cowboys would be labori-
Gus task, and an unnecessary one They
include long list of treSpasSes = n private
grounds, defacing and Destroying: roister-
ing bouts accompanied with shouts and
screams reverberating all through the
neighborhood, extending far into the
night. sometimes torturing nerves and
numbering sleep-wearied workers and in
validS their victims"
The letter says that the policemen of
that beat give frequent lectures to the
juvenile terrors, but with little effect. To
clean the city of this band, the writer
makes this suggestion to the Commits
sionerS:
Engage for this section-and this is
but a type of many sectons-a strong
motherlv woman to take charge of this
band on the street, wearing her badge of
Office to show in emergency. The case
calls not for suppression but supervision"
