ZONING REPORT
READ TO CLUB
Rotarians Told Business
Section Should Extend
To 22nd Street.
MAPS TO BE DRAWN
Height Limit Lowered to
l3O Feet on Pennsyl-
vania Avenue.

At its luncheon in the New Will
lard Hotel yesterday afternoon the
Rotary Club of the District receiv-
ed the report of the committee on
zoning.
The report as read calls for the
High Value Commercial ("D")
section to extend from Sixth street
northwest to Twenty-second street
northwest, and from B street on
the south to NJ street on the north,
including Connecticut avenue as far
as Dupont circle and excluding Six
teenth street on both sides.
The report recommends that the
height limit on Pennsylvania avenue
on the north side from First to Fif-
teenth streets northwest be reduced
from $50 feet to 13O feet.
Development Forecast.
The committee stated in it's re-
port that in recommending this
area for business it contemplates
the rapid development of this sec
tion.
In supporting its recommendation
for not lessening the height limits
in the business section, the zoning
committee points out that lessen
ing of heights tends to retard the
growth of our city to diminish
land values. to increase rents and
to encourage cheaper construction.
Following the reading of the re-
port it was discussed by the men,
bers for a full hour. without any
definite agreement being reached
The Rotarians will assemble next
Friday at a special meeting to re-
, ceive a full report from the COM
mittee. which heretofore has only
considered the business district.
subcommittee Meets
The subcommittee of the build
ings industries committee of the
Chamber of Commerce, which has
been assigned the work of exam
lining IN detail the new zoning
maps, held it's second meeting yes
terday afternoon.
An outline of the resolutions TO
ze recommended was arranged
These plans laid yesterday will be
completed at the meeting of the
committee to be held next Monday
Distribution of the second tenta-
tive use map of the Zoning Com
mission by Wednesday is intended

| Kutz, chairman, stated yesterday.
The commission will meet this
morning and tomorrow to put the

worst part of it for me is that the

stock which interested me most,

l would, / saw plenty of horses and
mules in Ell Paso, in fact there were
more of them there than all the rest
that saw on the way.
Arriving at San Diego about G p.

whom I easily recognized altho it had
been nearly eighteen years since |
last saw them. l found them enjoy
ing the best of health.
Last Saturday afternoon / met Ed
Belle down town and had few min
utes talk with him.
l have taken several trips around
the city and country. Yesterday l
was out to Camp Kearny, which is
seventeen miles from the city and
which was one of the largest train
ing camps during the war. Return
ing from the camp we came back by
the Sunnyside Brick & Tile Com
pany's plant which until lately was
owned by Mr.. Russ. Today / was
down to see Jim Martin, who is To-
Gated on a chicken ranch at San
Ysidro, which is about a mile from
the Mexican border. Jim has a nice
place and is doing we'll with his chick
ems. AT present he is selling day old
chicks as fast as he can hatch them
at 20 cents a piece. Jim says he
would not live back there again for
all of Seward county.
Well, I guess l had better bring
this to a close. l am feeling fine
and sleep about fourteen hours a

at home as well as usual, l am,

Work more
Produce more
SAGE more

But we can't continue increasing our
production unless we continue increasing
our railroad facilities.
The farms, mines and factories cannot
increase their output beyond the capacity
of the railroads to haul their products.
Railroads are now near the peak of their
carrying capacity. /
Without railroad expansion-more en-
gines, more cars, more tracks, more ter
minals-there can be little increase in
production.
But this country of ours is going to
keep right on growing-and the railroads
must grow with it.
To command in the investment markets
the flow of new capital to expand railroad
facilities and SO increase production
there must be public confidence in the
future earning power of railroads.
The nations business can grow only as
fast as the railroads grow.

SOUNDED Like a Curse.

A spinster Of about forty years or a
bit more recently had n house to rent.
Now her last tenant had three healthy
American sons and they had done q
great deal of damage to the house,
so she had firmly declared that she
would tolerate no children this time.
So when a man responded to her ad-
vertisement, she asked him whether
he had any children. "Seven," he re-
turned and then went on to tell how
good they were.
But the spinster informed him that
she would not rent her house to q
family in which there were so many
children. Angrily the man turned
away, but retorted over his shoulder
II only hope some day you'll have sew
EN- children. lady. and can't find q
house. either."-Indianapoli News.

Ry-Products Of lumber.

Thanks to the activities of the Unit
ed States department of agriculture,
and especially the forest products lab
oratory, ways have been revealed by
which we'll nigh every scrap Of tree
can be put to good account, and the
waste material of one plant or factory
can be utilized gainfully in the manu-
facture of commodities turned out by
others, says the Scientific American.
Through the medium of the wood
waste exchange much is being done to
promote the further working up of by
product lumber, but the practice is
relatively only in its infancy with US.
Finally 1t should be kept in mind that
the alcohol that can be made from
sawdust is chemically identical with
grain alcohol, and therefore valuable
for many industrial purposes. AS a
source Of energy, in place Of gasoline,
it is used successfully and extensively
abroad. A ton Of so-called wood refuse
will yield as much as 20 gallons Of
alcohol.

For centuries in Mexico and other
Spanish-speaking countries the hat has
been the object Of mans vanity. The
custom found its origin In the days
when the Hapsburg power was SUI
preme. One of the most cherished
privileges which the old grandees en-
jOyed was that Of wearing their hats
in the presence Of royalty. The alb
solute power of the monarch left them
little else to do but enter into rivalry
with one another in the splendor Of
their head coverings. The gay con-
ceits spread rapidly throughout the
Spanish dominions, and even today
characteristic sugar-lOaf hats may be
found in Mexico for sale ut the as
founding price OF from $500 to 81 900
for single hat.

Thrift In ChitS.

The Scots and the French had better
look to their laurels as saving peo-
pies. Chile bids fair to rival them
During the last ten years savings in
situations have risen considerably in
number. In 1910 there existed in the
entire country but a dozen independ-
ent institutions carrying the accounts
Of some 100000 persons; their COM
plete savings amounted to only 81
100000 in American money. In 1917
deposits rose to 100000 Chilean
pesos. which would equal about one
fourth as many American dollars. To
this, in the year 1918, were added So
100000 more Chilean pesos. The ma
ton has encouraged savings, through
stamps and other substantial induce
ments. Incidentally it is worth while
noting that lotteries are not permitted
In Chile; down there they believe in
getting rich slowly and surely.
