Most Of his knowledge Of warfare
Obregon has derived from study Of
the life and activities Of Napoleon.
In many respects Obregon emu1ates
Napoleon. Often before a battle he
addresses his soldiers and officers
and by his enthusiasm and eloquence
gains their loyalty and support. Usu-

SCHOOL SITE STATED
Dr.. Charles E. Emmons Says East
Washington Association Has No
Part in Controversy.

DR.. Charles e. Emmons. president OF
the East Washington Citizens Associa-
ton, yesterday issued a statement ex-
planning the policy of his association con-
cerning q site for the proposed new East
ern High School. The statement follows
the rejection by the District Commits
sioners of the decision of the jury ap-
pointed to appraise the value of site
favored by the Board of Education and
speaks in favor of reservation 13 as the
site for the school. The statement reads
in part:
Speaking for the association, it has
no part in the contention between the
Board Of District Commissioners and the
Jury of award regarding the valuation Of
the four squares recently sought to be
procured by condemnation for a site for
the proposed new Eastern High School
As far as possible, the efforts of this
association have been in opposition to
the purchase OF any additional land. as
a site for this school long needed-this,
in the belief that on the removal from
reservation 13 of some of the buildings
thereon there would not only be ample
ground-at least forty acres-but also
several buildings of great value to the
proposed educational institution"
The land between Sixteenth and Eight
eenth streets, Massachusetts avenue and
serervation Ii, is the site for the pro-
posed new Eastern High School favored
by the Anacostia Citizens Association.
The site was selected by the association
year ago and was upheld at the October
meeting of the organization Wednesday
night.
The reapproval was in the form Of a
resolution submitted by Charles r. Burr.
