TINKHAM BILL FAVORABLY
REPORTED TO COMMITTEE
Commissioners Advise Senate Dis
trict Body of Approval Of Street
Assessment System.

Favorable report on the Tinkham
bill providing new method of assess
ment in street-opening cases was sent
to the Senate District committee today
by the District Commissioners. Similar
report was made to the House District
committee last week.
The object of the bill is to change
existing law with reference to the
opening and extension of streets. ave-
nues, roads and alleys in the District
of Columbia so as to defer the payment
of assessments for benefits until the
highways are actually open for travel
In expressing the opinion that the
proposed legislation would be favora-
BILE to property owners and the Dis
trict alike. the Commissioners say that
under it's provisions it is probable that
property owners, instead of dedicating
their land, will urge upon the Com
missioners the opening and extension
of highways under the general au-
thority of the act Of March 4. 1913. as
under this act they would be paid
for the land taken for highway pur-
poses Immediately upon the rendering
of the verdict, but would not have to
pay any assessment until funds were
provided by appropriations for the
physical opening of the highways.

England today. merely because there
are not enough so-called gentlemen"
to fill the commissions OF an army OF
5000, 900, and because so many OF the
officer-tristocrats who upheld the
castle system have been killed off.
There Is nothing OF the sort in the
French army. It's organization and
spirit are wholly democratic. And the
merit of military democracy seen In
the fact that the French army Is today
fighting with the greatest spirit and
! efficiency In the world.
. In this matter, it-goes without say
ing that the French should be our
models. Our artificial caste system
should be abolished. A soldier, while
he must submit to discipline. should
suffer from no assumption Of inefriori'
ty to the officer who commands him
All should be considered equal citizens
holding different jobs, respecting
themselves and each other. There
should be an end of snobbishness In
the army, and there should be an end
of discrimination against the common
soldier on the part of the public.
Something of the same snobbist
spirit retards the wholesome growth
of the national guard. New York state
! just now has scandal over the al
legged barring of Jews from the guard
! Fifteen Jews have brought before the
governor definite charges of discrimi
nation. It is reported that several
companies of guardsmen have made 6
practice of turning down all Hebrew
applicants. Needless to say, the
American flag recognizes no distinc
ton of race or religion among those
who serve It, 1t should be established
once for all that national guard com
panies are military organizations, no
social clubs. There must be no Drey
| fusism in America.
