Local Civic Organizations
Plan Campaign for Larger
Appropriations.

Local civic organizations are soon to in
augurate campaign for increased appro-
priations for street improvements. Men,
bers of the organizations express them
selves as favoring much larger appropria-
tions than Congress has heretofore made
for such purpose.
ID. A. Edwards, president of the Lin
coin Park Citizens Association. has made
a start i'm the matter by calling a special
meeting of the association for Monday
night at Ingram Memorial Church, Massa-
chusetts avenue and 10th street northeast.
THE Lincoln Park Citizens Associa-
tion," said President Edwards to a Star
reporter today, "favors increased appro-
priations for street paving throughout the
city and while it will work for all sec
tions. it will endeavor to get liberal
share for East Washington"
President Edwards explained that he
called the meeting SO early In the season
for the reason that the Commissioners
soon will make up their estimates to send
to Congress, and he thought the associa-
tions might be able to induce them to
send in an estimate for street work that
will be large enough to accomplish some
thing.
IF the Commissioners will ask for a
large sum- he added, Il think the asso-
Citations will be able to induce Congress
to appropriate the amount asked"

Countess D'Odrovonz Sues Polish
Newspaper in Baltimore.

Countess Helena dOdrovonz. Russian
mob ew oman, who resides in Washington
and who is in st. Luke's Hospital at
Baltimore, as the result of injuries re-
ceived in an automobile accident near
Towson. Md early on the morning of
August IL, has nled suit in the Balti-
more courts for $4,000 for alleged libel,
the suit being against the Polish Pub
fishing Company and FSancis Purznay,
proprietors and publishers of the Jednosc,
a Polish newspaper issued In Baltimore.
The basis of the suit is the alleged pub
lication in the paper of an article in
which il was stated the countess was
an agent of the Russian secret service.
This she denies. and in her complaint
states the publication is calculated to do
her serious harm.
The countess is said to he the wife of
a rich Russian noblemaD who at pres
ent, 1t is stated, is in Europe. She has
made her home in Washington for some
time, and at the time she was injured
was in Baltimore on shopping trip.
