lots which can be used for building

In the suburbs the area regulations
will serve to prevent the erection of
rows of attached houses alongside of de-
tached or semi detached homes.
Not only will the area regulations
add to the beauty of the city by keep
ing homes uniform on certain streets,
but will insure light and air to many
homes which otherwise might be cut

tions.

Sections that are already clearly
residential or commercial will be so
designated. There are, however, many
streets and groups of streets in the city
proper which are such mixture OF resi-
dences and business places that the
commission has had some difficulty In
determining how to designate them.

FIRST zON|NG MAP
READY NEXT WEEK
Chart Will Be Tentative and
Subject to Changes Com
mittees Ask.

! Washington will get it's first glimpse
of coming on Monday or Tuesday of
next week, when the zoning commits
sion makes public a map showing ten
, tative use districts for building pur-
poses.
corps of craftsmen in the District
building are busy this week putting
the finishing touches to this map,
which will show four classes of use
district: Residential, first commercial,
second commercial and industrial.
The boundaries of the various dis
trictS will not be final as they ap-
pear on the map, to be given out in
a few days. The purpose in preparing
the tentative map is to enable prop
erty owners to study the boundary
lines of their respective neighbor
hoods and decide whether they are
satisfied with the class into which
their community has been placed.
Advisory Committees Named.
To facilitate the work of testing
public sentiment. the zone commission
has named advisory committees in all
sections These committees probably
will meet soon after the tentative map
is published and decide whether they
desire changes made in it.
The zone law requires the commits
sion to hold a formal public hearing
to hear protests before any zone can
be put into effect. Through the work
Of the advisory committees. however,
the commission hopes to settle many
of the mplaints before the hearing
is held.

Say of Yesterdays

NEW YORK, Oct. What the
managers say: Wilbert Robinson: Il
knew it. The breaks can't beat US
all the time. Grimes pitched just the
kind of ball 1 expected. The boys
backed him up brilliantly and were
there with the stick when blow
was needed. With the exception of
Mails, we've now seen all that Cleve-
land has to beat US. On the other
hand, we have four good pitchers
left. Bagby did not bother US at all
and he won't the next time.
'Of course, Coveleskie is danger
Gus, but l still maintain he got the
jump on us in the first game by a
lucky break. I haven't changed my
mind about winning the series"
Iris Speaker: Grimes is great
pitcher. We couldn't do much with
him, although he was weakening in
the last innings. We missed a good
chance to score in the second in
ming. A counter then might have
made things different. But that is
Just one game. The count is now
even and we are not afraid of any
thing Brooklyn has to offer. The of
day tomorrow will help our pitchers
and hope to win the series before

1t was expected to show there arc

The population announcement today

Along with its announcement of
total population, the census bureau
will make public a complete list OF

The gain for the whole country was
expected to be Is per cent as compar-
ed with gain OF Pcs per cent between
the years Of 1900 and 1910. Census
officials said the drop in the percent

His Des Moines Speech.
Fellow Americans: My stop in Des

cal There are associations in public
service which are the chief compen-
satfon save that alone which comes
'of the consciousness of public duty
honestly performed have known
such associations, and conspicuous
among them has been my association
with your distinguished statesman

tion, Senator Albert B. Cummins.
am not only very fond of him per-
sonally, and hold him to be one OF
the most delightful companions and
a valued friend, but also regard him
as one >of the ablest statesmen Of the
present time and one 'of the most
useful men in public life.
We are not always agreed, though
there isn't any conflict In our repub
licanism, and I am sure we are in
accord about the desirability Of a
sweeping republican victory in Iowa
and the nation on next November 2.
Constructive Legislation.
do not bring TO his fellowcitfZens
a recital of his eminent services in
the senate, but 1 do point to one
great piece of constructive legislation
which will honor his name for all
time to come refer to the Cum
mins-Esch law restoring the railroads
to their owners I hold It to be the
most progressive measure and the
most constructive act of federal leg1s-
lation enacted in decade. 1t was a
new declaration of legislative justice,
a new bill of rights for American
labor, declaration against the
blighting hand of government opera
tion, new pledge of fair dealing
with railway owners, and a new com
mand of the government to American
railways to serve the American
people.
It in becomes me to speak in de-
tail of this great measure in the
home of it's sponsor, for no one
knows it's provisions so well as he,
but I do want to empha asize the I'M
portance of efficient transportation to
the successful activities OF modern
life. 1t is not the merchant and
imanufa cturer who are alone con-
cerned. It is not alone the miner and
the mine operator. 1t is not alone
the farmer and the stock-raiser. Vital
as the railways are to these, they
are still more necessary to the urban
people who constitute the vast ma
jority of American consumers.
No More Batting.
No matter what were the grievances
of the past, no matter now what
abuses were once practiced, we can
no longer bait American railroads
and hamper their efficiency, without
menacing the lives and the health OF
American millions. They link the
riches of Mother Earth to the Ameri-
can home, and their failure is the
failure of America, and their paraly-
sis is the paralysis of the American
people.
In looking forward to a stable and
steady republic, economically restored
and made secure, ready to go on with
i the new order, which is the heritage
of war, am preaching the gospel OF
common interest in OUT republic
There is no appeal to group, or sec
