Under a recent ruling Of Assistant
Secretary Sweet of the Department of
Commerce, lighters used to transport
workmen to and from plants at which
they are employed must be equipped

mental Company, a Baltimore concern
that was carrying the different shifts
Of its employees from Baltimore to it's
works on the Anne Arundel county side
of the Patapsco on big lighter with

pany in the protest will be the Mer-

Assistant Secretary's Statement.
Weighing the Possibilities.

There are number of considera
tions that will have to be carefully
this plan can be decided on. Some
sort of work would have to be found
that could be held back and for which
there was no especially urgent need.
And then this work could only be
turned over to the local yard If it is
found that the Washington yard has
the space to be devoted to it with
out crippling it in it's principal func-
ton as a gun factory and also if 1t is
found that there is the proper ma
chinery in the local yard for this work.
Il shall have the recommendations
and suggestions that have come to me
investigated and sifted thoroughly. If
find them feasible / shall so report
to Secretary Daniels and he will issue
such orders as he sees fit

SOUTHEAST CITIZENS
URGE IMPROVEMENTS
Minnesota Avenue Association
Renew Efforts for Better
Railway Facilities.

railroad facilities to the suburb of
Anacostia and Randle Highlands were
under discussion at a meeting Of the
minnesota Avenue Improvement Asso-
citation last evening at the office of DR..
Upton s. Howser. when work was re-
sumed following the summer recess.
Ihe association is particularly inter-
ested In the extension of the Capital
traction Company's line from it's pres
ent terminus at 18th street and Penn
sylvan1a southeast, across the Pennsyl-
wanna Avenue bridge as far as Mime
sofa avenue, and along the latter ave-
nue. to Anacostia. This time the secre-
tary was directed to take the matter
up with the utilities commission and
! request that body to give the matter
urgent consideration
Much discussion was also held re-
garding the inability of citizens Of that
community to reach the northeast sec
ton of the city without the necessity
Of going to the northwest section or
paying an additional car fare, and as
d result the secretary was instructed to
ascertain If it would not be possible
TO have issued a two-cent transfer at
otn and streets southeast. 1t was
pointed out that such transfer is is
sued at 14th street and PENNSYLVANIA
avenue and at 18th and G streets
New Railway Favored.
The association also again went on
record as favoring the construction of
street railway along Good Hope
road from Nichols avenue in Anacostia
through Good Hope, East Washington
Heights, Bradbury Heights and Ben
ming. and will request the utilities COM
mission to give this matter immedi-
ATE attention. The need of such a road
was told by several members Of the as
soclation familiar with the conditions.
The association decided to recommend
that favorable action be taken toward
providing sewers for carrying off the
drainage water from Minnesota avenue at
18th, 10th and 22d streets. from the ave-
Hue 70 the large lnterceptor sewer. Each
tlme that a request has been made for
an improvement Of the avenue il has
peen stated that such work could not be
zone because of the lack Of proper drain
age. is believed that should these
sewers be constructed it would he
possible to have the avenue permanently
improved. The one at 18th street it was
stated, is most needed
Ihe bill which the Commissioners are
desirous of having passed, which would
empower them to regulate the sale
weight and quality of bread sold in the
district, was unanimously indorsed and
the secretary instructed to advise the
authorities to this effect. Drs. U. s.
HoWser and George c. Havenner told of
the advantages to be derived from such
law. especially in reference to the
wrapping of the bread.
Or. George c. Havenner, president of
the association, announced that $3.50
had been made available by Congress
Tor the improving of 18th street from
Minnesota avenue to street and that
an additional item of $500 would he
included in the next estimate of the
Commissioners for continuing the i'm
provement of this street through to
Good Hope road
