PARK PROPOSED
ON CAMP SITE
Trinidad Society Wishe:
Congress to Purchase
Meigs Plot.

DIR. Percival Hall. president OF
Gallaudet College, and c. w. Cole
were appointed last night at
meeting of the Trinidad Citizens
Association as a committee to go
before the new Congress in an ef-
fort to make the Patterson tract,
formerly the Camp Meigs site. an
other park for Washington.
Miss Susie Root Rhodes. superin-
tendent Of Fairgrounds. and Allan
Davis. principal OF Business High
School. are advising this committee.
The committee on parks and play
grounds reported that all Washing
ton commercial and civic bodies
recommended the site for a park
and playground.
The District Commissioners have
taken favorable action and the
Board OF Trade has passed a reso-
luton commencing the action of
the Trinidad association in bringing
the matter before the public. En-
phasis was placed upon the fact
that II an appropriation making the
Patterson tract a playground and
park is not granted within a year
the tract probably would be taken
over for real estate speculation.
The committee on roads reported
that they were preparing a resolu-
ton calling attention of Congress
to the poor condition Of the Ben
ming and Bladensburg roads.

SPLIT APPEARS
Whether to Name Primary
Ticket Problem for
Saratoga Delegates.

New York, July %. - The hegira
Of 1000 so-called delegates to the
2 9unofhcial convention of the New
York State Republicans Tuesday at
Saratoga, begins tomorrow. The
> delegates seem irreconcilably split
on two propositions. They differ as
to whether the convention shall
name an Official organization ticket
for the September primaries or
leave a free field for the voters.
They also disagree on the advisa-
bility of indorsing the action Of the
legislature in passing the 2.75 per
cent beer act or of ignoring pro-
.hibition altogether.
g The present State machine. head
ed by George A. Glynn. Of Water

ported to have Joined forces to op-
pose the machine program and to

les.

a candidate for the nomination. is
playing a lone hand. His headquar-
ters at the United States Hotel are
to tight all designations on the
ground that for the convention 10

the direct primary law. He will also
fight any proposition for the revival

.TROLLEYS Lose
AT BRIDGEPORT
Failuresto Gust Jitneys May
Stop Street Car
Service.

Bridgeport. Conn, July 2S.-Indi-
cations are that Monday will find
this city without the services OF
the trolley cars of the Connecticut
Company. Mayor Clifford B. Will
son. following the decision of su-
perior Court Judge John r. Banks
in which the ordinance passed by
the city, ousting the busses from
the principal streets was declared
invalid because of technical errors,
declared that the trolley company
would undoubtedly carry out it's
threat to discontinue car service at
midnight Sunday. Jitneys arc pre-
pairing to operate in increased num-
bers in an effort to take care OF
the riding public. There are about
$50 jitneys in the city.
The ruling handed down by Judge
Banks upholds the right of the city
to legislate the jitneys off the
streets but declares the delegating
of this power to the board OF police
commissioners as illegal. The tenn
porary injunction granted the jitney
men Is made permanent until the
September term Of court.
No special council session will be
called, the mayor said. He declared
he has no appointments for con-
ferences on the trolley situation.

The precise contents Of the let

CZECH LABOR BLAMED
FOR SHIPPING DELAYS
IPublic Ledger seryice.)s

Officials of the State Department
yesterday confirmed the report in
an exclusive cable to The Washing
ton Herald that this government
had interceded with Czecho-Slo-
vakia to obtain prompt passage
through that country of munitions
and supplies intended for Poland.
The action of the United States
could not. 1t was said, be classed
as a protest but more in the ma
ture of Inquiry" as to the reasons
for interference with the movement
of war materials.
The situation which arose when
the shipments reached Czecho-Slo-
vakia Is comparable to that in
England when members OF o-gs-
nized labor refused to load vessels
that were to be filled with sup
plies for the Poles.
The attitude taken by Czech Of
ficials has caused this government
to believe that there will be no
further difficulty in the rapid
transportation Of supplies.
