COOPERATION is SOUGHT
OF CITIZENS FEDERATION
Commissioners Desire Suggestions
Where Street Conditions
Need Improvement.

Co-operation of the Federation of Citi-
conditions is requested by the District
Commissioners in a letter sent to William
Nick Clayton, chairman of the public util-
tiles committee of the federation.
About year ago the federation took
up with the Commissioners the dust nui-
sance problem on urban and suburban
streets, due to the condition of the space
occupied by the street car lines.
In their letter to Mr. CL4yton they point
out that zince then conditions have been
improved on Georgia avenue, where the
Washington Railway and Electric Com
pany oiled the track spaces; Nichols ave-
nue., where the space has been recently
macadamiZed, and Connecticut avenue
extended where the Capital Traction
COMPANY is placing tarred macadam be-
tween the rails of the track. for the en-
tire distance from Cleveland Park TO
Chevy Chase Circle.
considered as whole it is believed
that the condition Of the track space of
the railway companies is distinctly bet
ter than ever before states the commu-
nication, "but the commissioners believe
that still further improvement can and
should be made, and steps to this end
will be taken in the near future in order
that the work may be begun early In the
spring In the work of improvement out
lined above we will welcome the cooper
alton of the federation by having it point
out from time to time particular locali-
ties where the proposed remedial meas
ures fail to give the desired relief

AUTOS ARE DESTROYED
IN A SPECTACULAR WAY
serbians Speed Cars Over a High
Precipice to Prevent Capture
by the Enemy.

When Serbia became involved in the
war speculation arose as to the fate of
the motor cars which that country
pressed into service at the beginning
of hostilities Now their fate is known.
They were destroyed to prevent their
falling into possession of the hostile
armies.
A writer on the subject expresses re-
gret that, since the thing had to be
done, there were no American small
boys present to witness the spectacle.
For it was a spectacular destruction.
The method this man relates was to
open up the ears on a road with right
angle turn and a sheer drop of 400 feet
to little stream.
.Tt was great game" he says. "A
long, gray car took the brink like "A
trained hunter. leaping far out over
the edge. AS the wheels were suddenly
released from the friction of the road
the car roared and trembled like live
animal during the instant that it hung
upright held by it's own momentum.
Then 1t turned its nose downward and
fell true as a plummet until it struck
the steep slope, down which it turned
with bangs that could be heard above
the crash. finally rolling into the
stream"
A ponderouS German limousine fol-
lowed and tucked its nose into the
slope without spectacular leap. An
expensive looking Italian car behaved
much in the manner of the gray car.

President Wilson will be requested

MACADAM ROAD ECONOMICAL.
Is Regaining Favor With Modern
Builders.

A few years ago roadbuilders joined in
a universal requiem for the oldfashioned
water-bound macadam road in New York
were all horse drawn, it was acknowl-
edged but with the advent of motor
vehicles it was laid aside with the muzzle-
leaders. crinolines and other prides of
departed days. But recently the mac
adam road has come back into favor This
is because road officials are now judging
the cost Of road by it's total annual ex
penSe, including maintenance and sinking
fund. On this basis it has been discov-
cred that A macadam road is an econom
cal one for certain classes of travel This
meeting of the New York State Associa-
ton Of County Highway Sup.rintendeatS
by many of those present.
Practically all the recent roads built by
these men have two courses Of broken
stone, and frequently it is possible to
cheap local stone. using the ex-
pensive stone from distance for the up-
per course only. This reduces the first
cost without causing any reduction in the
life and strength of the road. When they
are finished they are sometimes treated
at once with tar or asphalt, but usually
this treatment is deferred long enough
for travel over the road to reveal any
weak spots. so they can be repaired be-
fore the oiling is done. 1t is this devel-
opment of efficient and economical
methods of maintenance with the help of
road oils which has led to the renaissance
OF water-bound macadam in New York
1t is one of many recent indications that
where the work of maintenance is thor
oughly done and cost records of 1t are
properly kept important light is thrown
on the best types of construction to carry
travel or dinerent classe and intensities.

POSTAL SAVINGS DEPOSITS
SHOW A LARGE INCREASE
Credit Il Assigned to Fact That
Congress Has Liberalized
the Law,

The beginning of a new era in the
history of the postal savings service
resulted from the act of Congress Of
May 1S. 1916, amending the original
postal savings act SO that a person now
may deposit any number of dollars at
any time until the balance to his credit
amounts to $1,000. says A. NJ. Dockery.
the third assistant postmaster general.
in his report just published.
The effect Of the liberalizing legfs-
lation was an immediate and pronounc-
ed increase in postal savings deposits
the report states. AS the advantages OF
the new law become known the accu-
mulated hidden savings Of the country
flow to the postal banks and are there
restored to the circulating medium.
June 30. 1916. postal savings deposits
amounted to sS6,019.Ss5, standing to the
credit of 60293 depositors. an average
of S142.67 for each depositor. Com
pared with the returns for the service
at the close of the previous fiscal year
there was gain of S20.335.177 in the
amount on deposit, 1888 in the num-
Der of depositors and $17.65 in the aver
age for each depositor.
