MAJOR SYLVESTER IN
FAVOR Of RULE TO
REGULATE SKATING
Certain Streets May Be
Opened to Children for
Certain Hours Only.

II recommendation which Major
Sylvester. superintendent OF police, has
forwarded to the Commissioners Is APP
proved. roller skating on the streets In
Washington will be confined to certain
sections Of the city during certain hours
OF the day. Al present there Is no reg
ulation covering the subject.
For the protection of the skaters
themselyes as well as the general pub
lie the major believes there should
be n strict regulation governing them.
Hardly a day goes by but that COM
plants are filed against roller skating
on the streets. but the police at present
are powerless to act.
Major Sylvester recommends that GER
tain streets where traffic Is light no
set aside during certain hours 2f the
day for the use Of skaters. and that
they be prohibited from using any otoer
streets or skating at any other four.
He suggests that the streets to be set
aside for this purpose be ones that are
weli-paved and from which traffic could
be diverted during the hours prescribed.
This would work as great protec-
tion for the children" said the major

the old one so far you could not we'll
estimate it, two Of the machines each
cost more than the total amount of
insurance received. We have not as
much type and fancy cuts as we had
before, but we expect to get them
soon. l had thousand dollars paid

total salvage, for got all that. Of
course l have loaded the enterprise
with debt, but at low rate of inter-
est and long drawn out payments.
That does not terrify me in the least.
Every dollar the enterprise made for
four years before the fire was put
back into it; there was not even the
expense of an Office force. Now, you
know about as much as I do about
the whole thing, and am glad to be
able to report that we are doing busi-
ness at the old stand. l don't mind
work, and have mighty little use for
the lazy scamp that tries to live with
out work. And, let me say that am
more and more satisfied that some
low-down scamp deliberately set fire
to the Times building and did it to
silence me and to "get even" with
me for waging war upon his law
breaking and villiany. 1 do not fear
a repetition of the dastardly crime
for l have put on every dollar of in
surance that an honest man can, and
l purpose to keep the enterprise thus
protected. l shall stand for decency,
for law, for honest payment of hon
est debts and for the sacredness of
the home and our holy religion. 1
don't give two coppers whether the
thieves, lawbreakers and corrupters
of humanity like it or not. I'd be
ashamed to conduct newspaper and
not stand for something. Here's one
who proposes to stand for some
thing, and don't you forget it.
