For the last four years" said Colonel
Judson, Il have thought of nothing else,

Glenn Brown said one of the greatest
blessings George Washington bestowed
upon the city named after him was his
appointment Of Major L'Enfant as engi-
neer for the Capital. He commended
the action of Congress in placing the
Lincoln memorial I'm Potomac Park and
of its final acceptance of the E'Enfant-
Mcmillan plan OF developing the city.

WANTS CARS UNDER
POLICE REGULATIONS
Traffic Company Head Favors
Making Riding on Running
Boards Misdemeanor.

Riding On the running boards Of
street cars this summer will be a mis-
demeanor. IL the recommendation of
President c. P. King. OF the Wash
ington Railway and Electric Company,
are carried out Mr. King made this
suggestion at a meeting of street rail-
road officials with the District Elec-
trio Commission last evening. As the
matter now stands, riding on the run
ming boards is violation of a rule of
the Interstate Commerce Commission.
President King told the commission
that the rule is an impractical one for
the companies to enforce, but that If it
10 made a police regulation by the
Commissioners of the District, police
men can enforce it, and passengers will
respect 1t. The District Electric Com
mission has been making an effort to
prosecute the Washington Railway
and Electric Company for violation of
the order. One~case tried some months
ago resulted in the acquittal of the
company, although it introduced no
evidence and the prosecution had
plenty. The jury did not like the rule
Another case will be called in Police
Court March II.
Members of the District Electric COM
mission will consider referring the mat
ter to the Commissioners of the District
at the next REGULAR meeting of the Elec-
trio Commission.
The street railway company officials
talked of other matters than the run
ming board order last evening. They,
we're present to talk over with the COM
mission many of the new equipment and
operating rules and regulations and
numerous protests were lodged by the
companies men, .-- --.-
Members of the commission said today
that the suggestions of the street rail-
way men have been helpful and prac
tical in some respects, but that in
others the street railway men will be
overridden- The car companies do not
like, II Is known, the prospective re-
quirements for height of car steps. and
consider some other new provisions also
severe and stringent. Last night was
not the first of such discussions.

Roosevelt Favors
War Correspondents

The right kind of war correspondents
are of distinct value in the field. ac-
cording TO the opinion of Colonel Roose-
Welt expressed in a letter read by John
.Callan O'Laughlin at the New National
Museum yesterday as a part of his ad-
dress before the officers sof the exten-
sion course of the-Nayy War College.
These newspaper men, wrote Colonel
Roosevelt. must be carefully chosen.
Of course, for they must be men quite
as incapable as the officers themselves
OF divulging anything that ought not 10
be divulged or of making use of their
opportunities in any way that will not
rebound to the advantage CT the nation.
In other words, i would choose the cor
respondents and treat the CORRESPONDENT
on the theory that he is for the time
being a part of Uncle Sans military
force and as ;honorabiy, bound to meet
his service and national obligations as
