URGED FOR D. C. WORKERS

and Social Insurance at

tho District of Columbia was advocated
by Lindley D. Clark of the bureau of
labor in an address before the Monday
Evening Club at the Y. NJ. c. A. build
ing last night. Social insurance and
workmen's compensation occupied the
entire program OF the January meeting
Of the club. and recommendation may
be made to the Commissioners and
Congress for legislation along these
lines.
DR.. Henry J. Harris Of the Library
OF Congress discussed the scope and
purposes Of social insurance, dealing at
length with health insurance. He out
lined the general features of legisla-
tion of this character that has been
recommended to a number OF state leg
islatures. explaining the compulsory
provision under which workingmen
would be required to join such a sys-
tenn. In the case of employees making
$500 per annum the tax per employe
would be per cent or So a month, of
which he would pay two-ffths. his en-
ployer two -ffths and the state one
fifth. DR.. Harris also discussed the prog
resS that has been made by social in
surance in Germany.
In his Recommendation concerning g
workmen's compensation Mr.. Clark
proposed that such a law for the Dis
trict be made to include those in do
mestic service and agricultural pur-
suits. He thought the law also should
provide for casual employees. The
speaker outlined briefly what has been
done by other states in legislation Of
this character.
Lewis Merriam, formerly secretary Of
the club, presided and introduced the
speakers. Judge j. Wilmer Aatimer of
tIrf In hrsa

organized. Juvenile Protective Associa-
ton. which is designed to prevent de-
linquency and dependency among chill
dren.

uted among the members of the club,

Relief Coming

The winds are clustering and
rough, the frost keeps at 1t,
steady; little winter is enough,
you've had your share already.
You're tired of winter. grim and
drear, you're tired of all his poses.
Cheer upl The spring will soon
be here, with nightingales and
roses! You're tired OF blowing
IN your roll that you may keep
from freezing, for cords OF wood
and tons of coal-it surely isn't
pleasing. You're tired OF toiling,
day by day. to feed the hungry
heaters. Cheer upl The spring
is on the way, with meadow
larks and skeeters! You're tired
OF falling half a block, when
streets with ice are slippy; you're
tired OF cleaning snowy walks,
and other labors dippy. You fain
would sound a note OF grief with
cymbals, tinlbrels, cornets. Cheer
upi The spring will bring relief,
and bobolinks and hornets. Cheer
up! Though gloomy be the day,
the darkest day will vanish;
there's something travelling our
way that will our troubles BAN
ish. Today may be thing OF
dread-we're banking on tomor-
row; there's always something
Just ahead that's bound to knock
out sorrow. WALT MASON:

EAST WASHINGTON
CITIZENS ASK VOTE
Association Adopts Resolution for
Suffrage and Prohibition Referen-
dunn in Capital.

On motion of John II. Adriaans, the
East Washington Citizens Association.
at a meeting last night in East Wash
ington Hall, went on record as favor
ing suffrage for the District of Column
bia and the settlement Of the prohi-
bition question by referendum. Mr.
Adriaan's motion favoring suffrage was
contained in an unqualified indorse-
ment Of the Chamberlain bill.
without discussing the merits Of the
bill, Mr.. Adriaans said he thought it
was time that the people of the Dis
trict We're given a voice in matters
which concerned them. He thought it
was bad policy to pass bill striking
out the source of about s5o0,00o rev.
enue without making some effort to
make up for the loss.
DR.. Emmons Urges Resolution.
DR.. Charles NJ. Emmons spoke in IA
vor of the resolution, and it was
brought out that Congress is about to
give suffrage to the people of Porto
Rico. Both the president of the as
sociation and Mr.. Adriaans thought the
people of the District should be given
such right before it is granted so far
away from home.
Mr.. Adriaans presented a resolution
favoring the conversion Of reclaimed
land from Poplar point to Shepherds
into q park, and deprecating its use
for agricultural purposes. His resolu-
tion favored the early opening OF Firth
Stirling avenue to become a portion of
the proposed military road between this
city and Indian Head. The resolution
was adopted.
The association gave its Endorsement
% the objects of the District of Colum-
bia Branch, Federal Employees Union.
as stated in letter received from the
Union. Included among the objects
are increased salaries. application of
the workmen's compensation law and
providing pay for holidays and an an
nuaI vacation for per diem employees.
Better Mail Service.
William H. Cross reported the result
of conference with city post Office Of
ficials in an effort to obtain a better
mail service for East Washington. He
was unable to get the restoration of
the three-delivery service. he stated.
but did succeed in getting an earlier
morning delivery.
]. L. Pumphrey asked that the asso-
citation make an effort to get improve
ments Naylor road between Min
nesota and Railroad avenues. The one
square is largely built up, he said, and
the road is in such condition that
automobiles are almost unable to pass
over it. 1t is almost an impossibility
for the fire engines to pass, he declar-
ed.
Mr. Pumphrey complained that his
block is without sidewalk or curbing.
while some distance farther from the
city, where there are fewer houses.
there are granolithic sidewalks and
macadamized roadways. The people on
Naylor road are anxious for the i'm
provements and perfectly willing to
pay for them.
His request was offered in the form
of a motion and adopted.

The people Of Parma and vicinity

a bridge across the Boise river to the
Mcconnell island, and the county com
missioners have been petitioned to use
the material of the old Parma Roswell
bridge for that purpose. Fred McCou-

making estimates on the cost of the con-
templated structure. The proposed
bridge would give an outlet badly need.

would bring the Kingman colony people

Our people should get behind this
movement and push the matter az

The county commissioners have not
acted on the petition, but there is no
doubt but that they VII favor the peti.
