Cites Washington as Model.

Nation-wi publicity will be given by
the American Civic Association relating
to the order of the Commissioners Of the
District of Columbia prohibiting the in
crease of the billboard stands In the
District and the regulation of those al
ready existing. Secretary r. B. Watrous
is sending to the members of the Ameri-
can Civic Association In all parts Of the
country a copy Of the order and citing
Washington as an example to be initiated
by all other municipalities in their ef-
forts for the attainment of the beautiful.
The association has for years directed
a crusade against the billboard as a men,
ace to civic art, public health and good
morals. An instance of a more direct
source of damage caused by billboards
is cited by the association officers in a
recent railroad accident in Wisconsin,
where eleven lives were lost, due to the
fact that the driver of bus was unable
to note the near approach of a train be-
cause Of an immense billboard stand
near a main-traveled country thorough
fare.
In connection with biliboards President
J. Horace Mcfarland of the American
Civic Association denounces as silly and
an insult to American intelligence a.
proposition to build billboards into the
houses of those whom the originator of
the project calls the poor.
