|CONGRESSMEN ASKED
TO HELP MOTORISTS
Maryland Owners Want Law
Repealed Charging Enor-
nous Rate for License.
BY HARRY WARD.

Senator John Walter Smith of Mary
land. chairman Of the Senate District
Committee, and Congressman ]. Charles
Linthicum have been asked to secure
the repeal of the Washington regulation
requiring Maryland motorists to pay
the same fees for license numbers here
as Maryland imposes upon Washington
motor car owners
Osborne 1. Yellott. counsel of the
Automobile Club of Maryland. and
Sharpe & Dohme. manufacturing chem
lists, Of Baltimore. yesterday asked
Senator Smith and Congressman Lnthi-
cum to use their best efforts to have
the regulation repealed. claiming IL was
an attempt to get even" with Mary
land. and was not passed for revenue
only" Congressman Linthicum has
asked the Commissioners for informa-
ton on the subject.
Commenting on the matter. Corpora
tion Counsel E. II. Thomas said: II do
not wish to dictate a course Of action.
but / can say, the law includes all
States. 1t was not passed with view
to discriminating against Maryland.
The Maryland law, though. Is aimed
especially at District motorists. Our
law. of which / was the author. was
passed under general police power
vested In the District officials. It Is
similar to laws passed by other States
and was framed from them. In my
opinion. the District will oppose any at
tempt to repeal the law. which Is gen.
eral. and Is not aimed at any one State.
/ repeat that the Maryland law ap-
plies only to the District and was pur-
posely made So"
Entrants. drivers, observers, officials.
and the Government officials who have
been detailed to go on the motor truck
reliability run next week, will meet to-
night at the Hotel Sterling for the pur-
pose Of discussing the rules governing
the run. This meeting will be OF the
greatest Importance to all the partici-
pants.
The twenty trucks entered in the con-
te5t will be lined up In front OF the
District building tomorrow for inspec-
ton by the technical committee. The
floor boards and hood covers will be
removed. giving every entrant the op-
portunity of inspecting all the truck
and making any protest that he may
see At. All protests as to classification
or validity Of entry must be made to
Referee T. B. Shoemaker before s
o'clock tomorrow evening or they will
not be considered.

Insurance Companies Issue Ap-
peal for Protection.

Representatives OF several insurance
companies, moved by the revelations OF
'Izzy' Steinkreutzer and other members
of the larson trust who told Of the
enormous annual losses inflicted upon the
insurance companies. have asked Royal
H. Weller, the Assistant District Attor-
ney in charge OF the arson prosecutions.
TO aid them In presenting a bill to the
Legislature which would prevent a re-
organization Of tho ''frebugs."
Mr.. Weller was unwilling yesterday to
tell the names of those who had called
OIL him. He told them, however, that
would be glad to give them any help that
he could.
One remedy proposed was to shift the
burden OF proof upon the insured when
a claim for loss was made. 1t was also
suggested that, as fire insurance brokers
were licensed, a closer watch could be
kept on their business. and insur-
ance companies could be warned not
TO do business with those who made
too many mistakes" as to the value OF
the property insured. Mr.. Wellers own
idea is that there should be some better
understanding between the insurance
companies, so that when a man applies to
any company for insurance that COM

u
Washington Jan. 25.-Democrats in the
House who are anxious TO provide Pres
ident Wilson with another Cabinet oiil-
Ger are becoming alarmed over the
prospects in the Senate for the Sulzer
bill creating Department of Labor.
, The bill passed the House during the
last session. There was little OPPOSE

that the incoming President would have
an enlarged official family. The bill is
on the Senate calendar. but appears 70
although Senator Borah is reported to
be anxious 10 put the bill through before
March 4.
Particular interest attaches TO the bill
in the House because of the fact that
Representative Wilson, of PENNSYLVANIA.

will leave Congress at the end OF the
present session, and his friends have
picked him as the man for the new port
folio.
Representative Wilson's defeat at the
recent election was due TO combined Bull

President to make him Secretary of La
