WEATHERMAN KILLS
HOPES OF SKATERS
Rise in Temperature Due Today.
Tomorrow Shortest Day
In Year.

Hopes for river skating by Christ
mas went glimmering today when the
prognosticator over at"fthe Weathe.'
Bureau figured Up his charts and an-
nounced rising temperaturos' for to-
day and tomorrow.
This morning a sheet of ice full
inch thick covered the river. and with
one or two more freezing spells like
that of last night the ice would have
been ideal for skating. Three or four
inches arc necessary for skating.
But everything today indicates
slowly Sising temperatures. However
the Weather Bureau did hold out one
almost forlorn hope in announcing
that perhaps there would be a sud-
den drop in temperature during the
night.
Incidentally. tomorrow is the short
est day OF the year, scientifically
speaking. To the average laymcn
the difference will not be apparent
between today and tomorrow. but,
nevertheless, there will be q few sec
onds less OF daylight tomorrow than
today, and thenceforth the days will
begin to grow longer.

Finds It Requires Study to.
Fix Official Status.

"Who are and who are not residents

tficf:
z Owing to the fact that many people
employed by the Government in
washington maintain their legal vot-
ing places somewhere else, Mr.. Mat
tingly has troublesome problem be-
fore him.
Regarding the classification OF Con-
gressnien and war workers, Mr.. Mat
tingiy has been authorized to make
the following statement:
1T is clear that Senators and Rep
resentatives in Congress should be
enumerated in their home States, even
though they may own or maintain
homes i'm Washington while they are
here. This applies equally to all men,
bers OF their families.
"On the other hand The President,
Cabinet members, Supreme Court JUS
tices and all other Government Off
cials and Government employees who
either keep house or board in WASH
ington should be enumerated as resi-
dents of Washington for the reason
that they are domiciled here for a
considerable or indefinite period Of
time.
"This makes Washington their usual
place of abode within the meaning of
the law. Persons who live in Mary
land and Virginia should be enumera-
ted in those States regardless OF the
fact that they work in Washington"
There arc a few clerks in Wash
lngton who may be called transient

here to do some specific piece OF
work, and will return home when IL
