MEASURING QUESTION
. BEFORE EXCISE BODY

Whether measurements TO determine
the distance Of saloons from churches
shall be made at right angles or acute
angles was the question presented to-
day to the Excise Board. hearing a
protest made by the Dumbarton Ave-
nue. Church against permitting John F..
killeen to conduct a saloon at 1874 Wis
consin avenue.
The question pas already been made
a test case In Police Court, where Mr..
Killeen was suDnmoned last May.
Attorney a. 'E. Shoemaker. Of the
Anti-Saloon League. together with Pas
that Mr.. killeen's place Of business, ac-
cording to their measurements is less
than 400 feet from the place of wor-
ship.
that he measured the distance by an
acute angle-the most direct course
from the saloon to the church. He also
declared that this is the course taken
by pedestrians walking between the two
points. He further called attention to
the fact that the plats prepared for the
Senate Comnittee having In charge the
consideration of the Jones-Works law.
DR.. Martin. pastor of the church. de-
airing tnat ne appeared AS the official
representative of the congregation pre-
sented a petition against the granting
Of Killeen's license.
This protest was made solely on the
question of the distance between the
saloon and the church.
Attorney Bell for the applicant
argued that II the distance Is measured
according to the traffic regulations laid
down by the Commissioners, and ex-
pected to be followed by pedestrians
having a reasonable car for their per-
sonal safety-crossing the streets at
right angles instead of cutting diagon-
ally across Wisconsin avenue-that the
distance IL well over 400 feet
After hearing the arguments, Chair
man Smith of the board, said:
THE board believes it is following the
correct course when It is following the
law laid down by the District Commits
sioners.
Until the law IL changed, that will,
be the course of the board"
The application of the Cosmos Club
for license was called up at the be-
ginning of the session. but was con-
tlnued to enable Superintendent w q.
Hill. OF the club to obtain some figures
desired by the board.
Attorney Shoemaker entered n protest
to the application OF Samuel J. Stein
berger. 1Ol5 u street northwest, on the
ground that Mr.. Steinbergerger's place
OF business occupies more than one
room. and to the application Of Patrick
Riordan. of Oil Four-and- half street.
