Presentation in City Council last
night Of a petition by Councilman
Grantland Of the Ninth ward. that
the roadbed Of Sixteenth street be-
tween Washington and West streets,
is in a very bad condition. and needs
repairing Immediately, created quite
a discussion among the members Of

Sparks of the Street and Sewer De-
partment The petition, which was
signed by residents Of that ward, who
live on the street, was a lengthy
one, starring that the present condi-
ton of the street was a disgrace to
the city, as many visiting automo-
hiles come into the city by that route.
They ask that the street be paved
from curb to curb.
The petition was first referred to
the Street and Sewer Department.
but Mr. stover moved that it be re-
ferred to the Park Commission in
stead as the road Is a park road.
Mr.. Baynard stated that everything
In the petition was true; that the
road was in miserable condition but
he said II was not a park street but
the property Of the Mayor and Coun-
Gil.
1T should be fixed no matter whose
pocket the necessary money comes
out Of" he said. "The people living
there are entitled to fair considera-
tion to matter whether from the Park

thing. however, from a department
that has no money"
That road was opened by the
Park Board" replied Mr. Sparks II

Il am not trying TO dodge any is

Park Board did open the street at the
request Of the residents of that sec
ton. However. the city Is deriving
pthe revnue from the street. and the
Park Board cannot spare the fund to
improve IT,
Il would suggest that the matter
be referred TO both the Park Board
and Street and Sewer Department"
interposed President White. Let
them scrap IL out between them. "
Il will assure you there will be no
scrap" replied Mr. Sparks 1T is

lpartment has no money to spend on

The petition was then referred 10 the
Park Board for consideration.
A petition was also presented by

electric arc lights be installed az Elev-

Washington, June 5.--President will
son today sent to the senate these
nominations:
United States attorneys: Herbert r.
Phillips, Southern district of Florida;
D. Virgil Bourland Western district
Arkansas
Phillips had the endorsement of SEN
ator Fletcher and Senator Bryan,
who have frequently urged his ap-
pointment to Attorney General Nc
Reynolds.
J. l.. Billingsley, of Miami, was en-
dorsed for the. position by Ex-Governor
w. S. Jennings, of Florida, a first
cousin of William Jennings Bryan,
and also by the secretary Of state who
was a neighbor of Billingsley's in
Florida. Davis was not so strongly en-
dorsed.
Attorney General NIcReynolds, in
making the selection of Phillips said
he wished to secure a man of wide
experience who would be able to go to
any court in the United States and
be thoroughly at home. He believed,
he said, that neither BillJngsley nor
Davis had this experience, although he
declared both were very able men.

Washington, June 5.-Acting upon
recommendations of Secretary McAdoo
the senate commerce committee today
voted to report favorably bill to de-
fer until January /, 1914, the proposed
reorganization of the customs service,
which by reducing the number of dis
tricts and collectors from 1876 to 40
would affect every customs port in the
country.
Secretary McAdoo declared that
while the plan, approved by Former
President Taft was an Improvement
upon the present distribution of GUS
toms districts, there were objections
which might be overcome if it's opera
ton were delayed. Mr.. McAdoo said
he did not believe local. pride" was
valid or serious reason for delaying
the reapportionment. He recommend
ed that the plan be amended to re-
quire an annual saving of 100000.
Secretary McAdoo has recommended
to con gress a postponement of the Gus
toms reorganization plan until Jan
uary 1, 1914, because of objections
against it and because he believes it
contains imperfections. The secretary
however, approves the principle of the
reorganization. Practically every GUS
toms port in the United States is af-
fected by this decision.
The secretary's recommendation was
sent TO Senator Clark, chairman OF
the commerce committe. Mr. McAdoo
believes, it is said that the plan con-
tains many things which should be
omitted and is devoid of other reforms
he is anxious to make in the customs
service.
In suggesting a postponement of six
months, he recommends that congress
amend the law so that the plan of re-
organization must result in a saving of
$500, 900 based upon the expenses of
the customs service for the current
fiscal year.
The president secretary of the
treasury and congress have been bonn
barded with protests against the re-
organization which would revolutionize
the customs service and reduce the
number of districts and collectors of
customs from 156 to 40.

Food Problem Not One of Home
or Locality, But is Nationwide

food problem is not a problem of the
home or even of the locality. 1t is a
problem nationwide.
THE transformation of the food in
dustry has been so rapid that abuses
could not fail TO creep into II. The
old household methods are often bad
when applied on a large scale. New
methods had to be devised. Under
pressure of competition, these have not
always been thoroughly tested. Thus
trade practices have become established
that are hard to eradicate. 1t must be
one of the duties of the department of
agriculture to examine into all these
processes, to improve good ones and
discover substitutes for the bad. 1t
must also be its function to develop
methods of utilizing by-products and
of using as food many things which
are not now utilized.
Much work of this type already has
been done in the department of agri-
culture, but il is hoped TO make this
work the dominant note of the bureaus

Washington, June 5.-President Will
son arranged a conference at 2. m,
today with Viscount Chinda. ambas-
sador from Japan, to discuss the Toxic
governments latest note of protest
against the California anti-alien land
law. 1t was the first time that the am
bassador has availed himself of his
privilege of addressing himself direct
ly to the president of the United
States as the personal representative
of his sovereign emperor YoshihitO.
Secretary Bryan was to confer with
President Wilson before the ambassa-
dor was received, but it was not con-
templated that he would be present
his views of Japan's rejoinder to the
last note of the United States. The
rejoinder reiterates that the California
law is a discrimination and in con-
travention of the treaty of 1911 not
withstanding the disclaimer of the
state department.
Japans latest word in her protest
against the California anti-alien land
law was before President Wilson today
waiting to be presented to the cabinet
at its regular semi weekly meeting
tomorrow. It is more than probab BILE
that the cabinet will consider the re-
joinder only in a preliminary way, as
Secretary Bryan expects to leave the
city soon after the meeting, for Pitts
burg to attend a banquet to George w.
Guthrie, the newly appointed ambas-
sador to Japan. Viscount Chinda,
Japan's ambassador. also will be a
guest at the function but will go on
an earlier train.
The next step in the negotiations is
a reply to Japan's rejoinder. This Is
expected to take up the Toxic govern
ment's reitera ted contention that the
Webb law is in contravention of the
treaty of 1911, derogatory TO the equal
treatment which Japanese expect un-
der international law, and therefore,
a racial discrimination. The whole
tone of the JapaSese note inviting
further negotiations upon the contro
verted points, Impressed official Wash
