respective desks in the bureaus or Offices
whtrc employed, or at the places where
mechanically IT work. The system works
well and saves a great amount of the
employees time in going for their money
or in getting their checks cashed at the
Treasury or elsewhere
while | am unacquainted with the
methods in the District office. and prob
ably not well qualified to speak on the
subject, 1t nevertheless seems Il rea-
sonable suggestion to make. that by re-
curing the auditor for the District 10
audit. certify. or approve the completed
pay rolls the 1st and 18th of each month.
and transmit the same to the disbursinS
officer for payment in cash, as Is done
in the executive departments, much time
and labor would be saved. and the auditor
relieved Of the irkSOme duty of signing
or Countersigning checks. as is the pres
ent practice. II such system would not
be found practicable for the reason that
the disbursing officer lacks a sufficient
force. / am quite confident that 1t Is
within the power and discretion of the
honorable Commissioners of the District

The interest which is being manifested
in the proposed Lincoln memorial high
way from Washington to Gettysburg. as
shown by the numerous letters to The
Washington Herald, has elected some
suggestions from Mrs. John B. Hender-
son, who believes that the proper site
for the arch which win mark the be-
ginning of the highway is Meridian Hill.
.-rhe three finest sites in the world for
monumental effects" said Mrs. Hender-
son yesterday, "are crowned by the
United States Capitol the Parthenon, and
the Arc de Triomphe. The old city of
Washington was once surrounded and
semi-encirrled by a Gordon OF hills AT
one end stands the Capitol, at the other
end the GEORGETOWN University The
central and highest seat of this fine am
phitheater Is the crest of Meridian Hill
In Sixteenth street. We have here site
which in elevation doubles that OF the
Capitol Hill site, one being 30 and the
other 32 feet above the Potomac. and Il
nearly 30 feet higher than the base OF
the washington Monument. A Lincoln

here and his victories for peace and hu-
manity 1.-TWO columns connected by q

Il read with much interest," said
George W Evans. disbursinC clerk OF
the Interior department, yesterday. the
editorial in The Washington Herald this
morning relative to the payment of the
salaries Of the District employees on the
1st and 10th of each month.
I see no valid reason" he continued
why such n system could not he
adopted 1t Is true. as stated in the edl-
torial. that all of the employees Of the
government in Washington. both clerical
and mechanical. are SO paid This prac-
tice has prevailed for many years and
has been Of great benefit to the govern
ment employees as well as the merchants
Of the city with whom they deal.
There is no law of Congress govern
ing the frequency of payment of saia-
ries, the matter being purely one OF
departmental regulation. | know of one
of the great departments of the govern
ment having a total of more than 300
employees on its rolls, both salaried and
per diem, that makes two payments per
month without the least bit of trouble

Ger. And all of said employees are paid

a-mOnth Plan.

Payment twice a month would be as
good as a raise in pay" was the re-
mark of one of several policemen who
were asked yesterday whether the men
would be helped by two pay days a
month.
Nothing that has been talked about
by the Chamber of Commerce or any OF
the newspapers will be as helpful to the
District employees as this reform IN the
method of payment" he added. we are
all broke before the end of the month.
A. Lisner said he was heartily in favor
of the movement, and would support
it as being both helpful to the men and
more businesslike.
George c. Gertman, chairman of the
subcommittee which makes the recon-
mendation, said he had reason to feel
that the change will he much more ac-
Ceptable to those interested than he was
at first led to suppose. Since the inten-
ton of the committee has been made
public there have been hearty express
s:ons of support and interest from all
classes of citizens. He had at first in
mind only the policemen and flremen,
but on reflection saw no reason why the
whole body of District employees should
not share the same treatment as en-
ployes of the government
William F. Guide heartily indOrsed the
plan and looked upon the distinction that
is mad, between government and DIS
trict employees as being one Of those
peculiar iniustiCeS that for some mex
plicabIe reason persist year in and year
out until some one interested points out
the abSurdty.
r. y. Harper. president Of the District
National Bank. said that the practice is
unhusineSsIikC and works a hardship
upon the great mass of District employees.
He was pleased that the matter is to
come UP this evening at the Chamber
of Commerce. and that he will be glad
to do all he can to have this old-tash-
! ioned method superseded by something
more buSineSSlike.

SINGLE CONDUIT
PROTECTS CAPITAL
Facts on Fire Protection
Furnished in Report.
HIGH PRESSURE ADVOCATED
w. A. Mcfarland, superintendent OF
Water Department, Dwells on
Mean, of Defense, Reliance in Case
of Emergency, and Danger IL Con-
duit Should Fail to Perform.

That the entire water supply of the
District is dependent upon single con-
duit. which crosses a long bridge ana
a number of culverts. has been clearly
brought out in a report made to the Dis
trict Commissioners by w. A McFar-
land. superintendent of the water depart
ment.
Mr. Mcfarland is a strong advocate
Of the high-pressure system not only
as a means of defense against fire, but
as a reliance in case of emergency, such
as the single conduit breaking. He states
that if that line of communication with
the reservoirs were broken, and could
not be Immediately repaired, 1t would
be necessary to abandon the city after
five or six days
Exodus of Population.
In addition to this general exodus of
the population that would be made nee
essarv by the interruption OF the con-
duit service, Mr.. Mcfarland points out
that the CITY would be absolutely at the
mercy OF a fire that might, under or
dinarv circumstances, be insignificant
| The matter of private property in such
a case would be a mere detail compared
with the millions upon millions of dol
| lars damage that might be involved in
the destruction of public documents most
| of which are housed in buildings erected
without any of the modern fireproof
methods.
Mr. Mcfarland is not an alarmist. and
| says an ordinary freeze would not affect
the conduit but that two weeks OF
weather near zero. which has happened
| in Washington in the past, would come
pretty near putting the conduit out OF
| commission and leaving the city entirely
| heInIess in the matter of drinking water
and fire fighting. He points out that a
scheme should be devised which in such a
case could easily pump enough river
water into the mains TO afford fire protec-
ton and water for domestic purposes in
the downtown section.
The Cost of Piping.
He thinks the high-presswe system
could be Installed for about $4,000
but says the cost of piping is on the in
crease. and the longer the enterprise is
| DELAYED the more it will cost the District
and Congress. This point has been urged
by others who have been anxious to see
Washington's fire-fighting and water IA
cilities raised above the average OF a
country village.
Mr.. Mcfarland says an adequate
powerhouSe should be built Immediately
adjacent to the river. and suggests the
neighborhood of Seventeenth and A
streets northwest. Thes main disCharS-
ing pipe, or raising main, would then
be laid north along Seventeenth street To
such a point as would permit its conneC-
ton with the hiEh-preSsure system and
with the trunk line of the distribution
system, so that it could Immediately
connect its power with the distribution
| sYstem in case of emergency.
