DAVE" LEWIS PUTS DAMPER
ON SUMMER CAPITAL PLAN.
There is Absolutely No Chance Of a
Move From Washington He Says,
Unless the War Drives Presi-
dent Away.

Congressman David j. Lewis has
thrown a damper on the movement TO
have a suite selected in Maryland for
a summer capital for the Federal Gov
ernment fin a letter which be has writ
ten Secretary Lloyd 7. McGill. of the
Frederick Board OF Trade. who has
been urging Braddock Heights as To-
cation for a summer home for the
President and executive headquarters.
Since the summer capital idea" was
first broached a number Of locations
on the shores OF the Chesapeake and
in the mountains Of Western Maryland
have been suggested. MrLewis writes
that he Is familiar with the attract
i've availability" Of Bfaddock Heights.
and wishes that the capital Of the
United States had been placed there
in the beginning" FOR "it would have
added greatly TO the efficiency OF pub
lie men generally"
The Congressman declares that
there is no probability that another
site, even for summer purposes, will
be taken" for the Federal capital.
unless some such misfortune as the
Government being driven from WASH
ington by the hand Of war should de-
yelop" The Frederick Board of Trade,
however. will continue 10 bring Brad
dock Heights to the attention OF the
President and Congress for a summer
capital. and the Blue Ridge Summit,
now the summer home OF many Latin
American diplomats, Is also suggested.
and other Maryland points are claim
ing recognition.
Virginia wants the proposed sum
mer capital on the other side of the
Potomac, and it's efforts to secure the
location will be stoutly resisted by
Marylanders. Governor Goldsborough
and the Annapolis people think Bay
Ridge would be an ideal place But
for George Washington's personal
preference for Georgetown, Western
Maryland would have had the United
States capital.
When the Potomac won the fight for
the location OF the Federal Terri
tory" 1890. over the Delaware, it's
site was fixed by Congress on the river
Potomac. az some place between the
mouth of the Eastern Branch and Co
nocochegue." Washington was to
make the selection. He visited VIII
iamsport and found a town where the
only building eighty years before.
when he had first gone TO Conocoche-
que with Braddock'e army was the hut
of Colonel Cresap. He thought it was
inferior for tho "ten miles square" TO

THE DRAMA LEAGUE IS
By B. F. WUKERSON Center O of

comparing and crticizing work by the regular study of the technique of dramat-
 c writing. This work will be under d- rection of Mrs. w. S. Lowell. All of those who are interested in the writing of plays for the stage, or of scenarios for moving picture performances are request ed to send their names and addresses to our secretary, MT. Carl 1T. Milan, at the library. The junior work is far reaching. In Chicago five salaried work CTS are maintained who conduct groups of children in playgrounds and settlements studying story telling and putting on plays. In Washington the league has established a tiny children's theatre called the House of play, whose. groups are trained and directed and such plays as "The Blue Bird" Peter Pan," etc, are given.
 Our Birmingham center is composed now of 125 or more members claiming, among them those of the press, public school, colleges and university, the pull pit, library the man of business. the club woman and the society leader. At some point the league has been able to meet and interest each of these
 As soon as they can be arranged we expect to have regular meetings of the league. Plays will be read by best tall ent obtainable. In some instances there will be lectures and interesting talks. It will be interesting to hear the reports from the field and hear what is actually being done by various league centers It is hoped that every person who would like to see the standard of dramatic work raised and the production of many fine things made possible, will lend his sup port and influence to the Drama league.

CLEVER PLAYS GIVEN
 TO ALLEN SCHOOL

A large audience gathered at the Al- len school Tuesday evening to witness two plays which were creditably pre- scented by the members of the high school department and those of the Dramatic club. The first was ''The Bishops Can dlesticks,' scene from Victor Hugo s Les Miserables," which was quite an ambitious undertaking for a girls school and was admirably presented. Tn deep contrast the latter part of the programme was a little comedy from the German entitled, 'Six Cups of Chocolate Both plays were directed by Mrs. Margaret Hrnt-Ruff.
