ANSWER SUIT OF U. S.
FOR WHARF PROPERTY
Defendants Claim Title for Them
selves and Predecessors
Since 1900.

Lttlefield. Alvord & Co.. the Crawford
Paving Company and Christian Heu-
rich, defendants in the proceeding
brought by the United States to re-
cover possession of the wharf prop
erty located on the west side of 9th
street between ID and Water streets
and New Hampshire avenue, have filed
their answers to the suit
The defendants claim that since the
year 1900 they and their predecessors
in title have been in possession of the
against all persons. They say that for
many years the Potomac river ebbed
and flowed over one-half of the prop
erty i'll controversy, which was re-
claimed and made wharf property by
them and their predecessors. who.
throughout the whole time, occupied
and used the same adversely. Twenty
seventh street, which, the government
claims, extends as far south as Water
street, never was plated or laid out or
actually extended below G street, it is
asserted. and does not exist: and the
United States has no title or interest
in the property claimed.
The defendants also refer to various
acts of the legislatures of Virginia and
Maryland, compacts and agreements
entered into between these states as
early as 1855, by which the right and
title of the citizens of the respective
states to the property on the shores of
the Potomac river was reserved and
protected.

More Recreation Facilities
Is Plea of President Moran
in Annual Report Features

A plea for increased recreation facili-
ties in the city, for swimming pools in
the parks and bathing facilities along
the banks of Rock Creek is contained
in the annual report of President P. T.
Moran of the Chamber OF Commerce,
who said. in part:
II know I voice the sentiment Of
every member when 1 say that we in
dorse most heartily the plans of the
superintendent of public buildings and
grounds for the conversion of the
banks of the Potomac into a great
playground with public golf links, ten
mis- courts, base ball diamonds, wading
pools. lighthouses, and last, but not
least great stadium capable of hold
ing the West Point-Annapolis foot ball
game. Let your imagination picture
the throngs of happy, intelligent,
Young American citizens who can keep
and womanhood through such facilities
More Swimming Pools Urged.
."The question of recreation brings
to my mind matter absolutely vital
to the health and happiness of, our
Young people. There should be in every
section adequate swimming pools for
our summer months. / visited on many
occasions the swimming pool near the
Monument and. while 1t is excellent,
it is absolutely inadequate for the
host of young people of our city.
"Why cannot beautiful Rock Creek be
utilized for the great northwest sec
ton at least by a series of dams, prop
erly concerted or tiled, which would
give bathing facilities to thousands.

Lest N.Y. friends of artistic taste should

structed along rustic design.
thousands of our citizens on their
way to work each morning and on
their way home each evening submit
and I have heard, so far, not a single
suggestion which would relieve this
discomfort, to which many of US sub
nit twice daily. The thought occurs
that eight or ten men in the executive
departments of the government could.
with very small amount of study,
add most materially to the comfort OF
tens of thousands of Washingtonians,
every day in the year, by the securing
OF a little change in the opening and
ments Let US assume that the office
hours of the War, State and Navy
building commence at 9:1o, of the
Treasury at 9, of the Department Of
the large executive departments. The
gain or loss at one end of the day
can be offset at the other. 1t is need
less TO point out to business men that
the congestion on our street cars
would be greatly diminished.
Some Voice in Local Affairs.

ton which would give to the citizens
of the District of Columbia some slight
voice in their local affairs, as well as
small participation in national af-
fairs, and l cannot refrain from quot
ing from a memorial, known Sen

Rental Receipts an Object Lesson.

Again let me call your attention to
the fact that the Chamber of Com
merce has expended in the past seven
years something like $4,000 in rentals,
and, while file of rent receipts may
pc interesting as souvenirs and evil
dences of honesty in settling obliga-
tons, they are compa ratively of lit
tie value for purposes of assessment.
SO far as 1 can discover. there has
been no change in the policy of the
chamber. nor in our belief that light
manufacturing without smoke would
be of great benefit to the capital in
furnishing employment to the small
army of graduates who each year are
forced into clerical positions at home
or are forced to seek larger oppor-
tunities away from here.
The action of the chamber in the
question of appointment of school
board indicates the feeling of our
organization. which, according to the
press. is shared by many other citizen
bodies. is one phase of our local af-
fairs in which we are vitality inter-
ested."
