The Cathedral Heights Citizens AS

fall season last night at st. Adams
Parish Hall withdrew from the Fed
GRAFTON of Citizens Associations. with
which it has been affiliated for the
past two years.
Charging general ineff1ciency and
lack of a definite object for which to
work, Samuel Herrick, president
of the association, introduced the mo-
ton to withdraw from the fedora
tfon. His motion was opposed by
Civil Service Commissioner George r.
Wales, a delegate with Mr.. HerrIck
from the association to the fedora
tion, who pleaded that common in
terests forced common interchange in
ideas in community.
/, Federation Criticised.
Mr.. Herrick pointed out that within
the past few months the federation
has practically commanded the
President to look with favor on the
appointment of a District Commits
sioner to succeed Commissioner Gard
iner picked only from former presi-
dents of the federation. A list of five
such former presidents has been sub
mitted to President Wilson, he said.
He said that there is no time for open
discussion of a question at meetings
of the federation and that all ques-
tions are submitted to committees.
which may or may not bring in a re-
port within the time specified, and
that too much time is taken up with
matters not of local interest and in
which the federation can do no good.

citation will join hands in an effort to

against the zone system Of fares in

that a zone system could be worked
