Avenue Citizens.

raised as soon as possible for the
completion of the Mcmillan plan for

meeting last night at the Sherwood
Presbyterian Church. She was intro

n id to every movement that will make

cities"
The Commissioner suggested that
Congress should authorize bond is
sue of $6,0e0.00O. to be subscribed by
residents of the District. The other
81 100000 would be given by Congress
for the completion of the McM1flan
plan. Miss Boardman said that If the
District does not soon acquire the
sites of several playgroundsLhat are
now loaned the sites will be bought
and converted into building lots, and
can later only be acquired at a great
sacrifice of money. She said the Dean
tract at Connecticut and Florida ave-
nues should be acquired, as 1t is the
nearest play space for the children
living in forty-nine apartments with
in two blocks of the tract.

of the departments of the District gov
eminent under her immediate superU-
sion. and received hearty applause when

nicipal hospital a reality soon, ana
promised support for getting better
streets and paving in the northeast sec
ton. At the close of her address mem
with the new Commissioner.
Miss Boardman voiced it as her per-
sonal opinion that there was no good
reason why the people Of the District
should not be granted the right to vote
in presidential elections, involving ques-
tions Of national import, but that, while
her mind WIS open to conviction. she
thought it would be detrimental to the
interests Of the capital to inject into the
san politics, which would be incident to
representation In Congress
The association protested what was
termed continued cutting OF Of electf-
cal current by breakdowns IN the plant
Of the Potomac Electric Power Com
pany. Chairman Armstrong of the pub
lie utilities committee told the associa-
ton he was . member of committee
of tho American Society Of Engineers

ington experienced far more shutdowns
than New York.

Charles Stewart Dawson, chairman
Of the board of trustees of Ameri-
can Defense society in a telegram
to Governor Thomas r. Campbell
today. His message said the effort
was being made falsely in the name
of organized labor. The message
added that in reality the campaign
was being made by radicals who
opposed the interests of the United
States in the great war. 1t also
said:
There is reason to believe that
the movement to promote COM
merce with soviet Russia is backed
and financed by Lenine and Trotz-
ky and their agents in this coun-
try. whose chief object is the over
throw Of our government and the
establishment of the red rule of

society urges you to call on the
newspaper men in your state to
thwart this new. insidious and dan
gerOus propaganda of the enemies

in establishing citizens committees
to combat this urgent matter.

power to initiate proceedings.
Ad VaICrcm Tax ON Mines.
The mine tax law receives its
proper share of attention and a
strict ad valorem basis for assess

experts who will be fair to the
mines and the state. These investi
gators would take into account all
the elements tending to make a
from their reports the mines would
have an opportunity of appeal, thus
being placed on the same basis
with other taxpayers.
For the state land office, there is
a recommendation that the posi-
ton OF commissioner be abolished
and that the actual administration
of the lands be placed in the hands
of a salaried bipartisan board
which would also have charge Of
the educational institutions of the
state, the idea being that the group
which had the administration of
the schools should also supervise
the trust fund from which money
for the maintenance of educational
facilities is provided.
Urge Constitutional Amendments.
Frequently through the report
constitutional changes are urged
and sample amendments are sup
piled. The educational suggestions
are no exception. Here a constitu-a
tional amendment Is proposed
which would throw open the mat
ter of consolidation of institutions,
although no direct step in that d.
rection would be taken by the com
mission.
Another general principle which
runs through the entire report Is
that all boards with independent
incomes should deposit their funds
with the state treasurer and draw
them out on vouchers. In the case
of the state university and institu-
lions of its nature, all the fees
would be paid to the state treasur-
er and the legislature would make
a direct appropriation beyond
which the school could not 90.
This would apply to the board of

AS regarded the reprisal charges,
the chief secretary declared there
was not a single authenticated

and threatened to kill any soldier
who did not cease shooting. with
the result that the men stopped.
Crown Forces Effective.
The crown forces, declared the
chief secretary, We're daily growing
more effective. 1t was true that
more of them We're being muir

were asserting the authority of the
crown. Extracts from a document
he said had been recently captured
were read to show that 1900
pounds had been spent in organiz-
ing the Headquarters staff of the

he said, was the center of the

from this center that in some cases
100 pounds per skull of the police
