TOURISTS WITHOUT
LICENSE TAGF|NED
Police Question Authority of
Maryland Judge to Give Motor
lists D. c. Permit.

The right of a Maryland Judge to
give tourists permission to pass
through the District of Columbia
without the proper license tags was
challenged by Motorcycle Detective
Tomardy, of the Seventh Precinct, this
morning when he appeared against
Hugh Martin and william Avery, Of
Greenwood, S. c.. in Police Court
The men were arrested last night on
Wisconsin avenue northwest for not
carrying Washington tags. They ex-
hibited a pass, written by Judge Will
liam c. Korns, of Cumberland, Md,
which, they claimed, would get them
through the city unlicensed. They
were arrested recently on Cumber-
land road and fined $40 for not having
Maryland tag.
The Maryland Judge who heard their
case and imposed a fine had condes-
cended to allow them to pass through
the District unlicensed. Detective
Tomardy did not recognize the
authority of the judge, and as re-
suit the men were fined the minimum
of 81.

SEN. SMOOT LOSES
IN EFFICIENCY ROW
Senate Forced to Recede From
Demand That Bureau Be Put
In Congress Control.

The second round in the celebrated
bout Of President Wilson VS.. Senator
Reed Smoot on the subject Of the bu-
reau of efficiency has been ended,
with the President scoring on points.
Senator Smoot was determined that
the bureau of efficiency, which the
Federal employees declare is nothing
more or less than a glorifed spy
organization" should be placed under
the control of Congress. He wanted
the Senate to be kept advised as to
the thousands of Government clerks
who were about one-half of per cent
efficient and who could be dismissed
without detriment to the service.
The bureau of efficiency, which is
headed by Herbert J. Brown, Is now
under the control of President Will
son, and the administration forces in
the House were determined that 1t
should be kept there, regardless of
the wishes of Senator Smoot.
The Senate amendment to the legis-
lative, executive and judicial appro-
priation bill was the subject of a bit
ter row in conference, and when the
House proved adamant, the Senate
conferees were forced to recede from
the Smoot amendment.

while Sergt. w. f. Liell and Capt. L.
II. Miller, who finished second and
third. made scores of GAO and 636, re-
spectively. Even more remarkable
was the shooting of Gunner J. J. Fara-
CHER, who was not allowed in the
competition because he Is already a
distinguished expert, but shot the
course for practice, making the total
656 out of a possible 700. or an aver
age OF all bullseyes but three on each
of the fourteen ranges.
Fifteen gold, silver and bronze med
ais were presented to the men who
made the fifteen highest scores by
Maj. Gen. John A. Lejeune, post COM
mander, who in a short address con-
graduated the winners, declaring that

LEPER MAY ESCAPE
AND COME TO D. c.
Health Officials Told John Early
Plots to Get Away From
Colony.

Washington may house another
leper IL plans OF John Early are car
ried out. Early, well known In this
city and now confined in the leper
colony In New Orleans. is due back in
Washington. according to his own
statements. within the next two
weeks.
However. DIR. william c. Fowler,
District Health OFFICER. does not be-
lieve the leper will be successful In
his plans to escape from the colony.
He has received word from officials
OF the colony that special attention Is
being given TO Early. and all of his
movements closely watched.
Little hope is held out by DIR. Fow-
Ter that Willard Centlivre. the leper
who escaped from the colony several
weeks ago and came to this city, will
be returned TO New Orleans. For more
than three weeks DR.. Fowler has been
corresponding with the health ofri-
cials in louisiana
II don't think we will get rid OF
Centlivre." said DR.. Fowler today. at
looks as IL he's here for good"
Centliver Is now at tho District

officials that John Early was planning
to return to Washington. He said
Early expected to make his escape
sometime this month.

8-CENT FARE ON
MAY | IS CERTAIN
All Hope of Legislation in Ad-
vance Of Higher Rate Has
Vanished.

All hope of legislation by Congress
in advance of the imposition of the
scent street car fare in Washington
has vanished.
Senator Wesley Jones' measure pro-
viding a limitation of all fares in the
District to 6h cents. Is now before
the District Committee, but II is
doubtful whether the committee will
even consider the measure before
May !, much less act upon II.
Congressman Woods bill providing
for a merger OF the Capital Traction
Company and the W. II. and Z. has
not yet been reported from commit
tee. The prospect of any traction leg
islation in Congress for weeks and
even months to come Is remote.
There is, however. a steadily in
creasing undercurrent of feeling in
Congress that some drastic public
utilities legislation for the District is
inevitable. The vast majority of Sem
ators and Congressman believe that
the coming fare increases is unjusti-
fed in view of the quality Of service
rendered.

Several months ago the federation

Permit us to say that we admit
being a menace to the things you
avowedly stand for-the war mongers
and the profiteers that are bleeding
the nation white after having gorged
themselves after four and one-half
years of war.
TT is our opinion that the really

the very people you denounce in such

gressman II. w. Summers OF

"As a mater OF fact" he con-
tinued. "this overall movement
increases consumption above that
which necessity requires. Prac-
tically everybody has enough
clothes on hand, II patched, TO
last them for several years. In
stead Of laying aside the clothes,
which we have and buying these
new overalls which many charac-
ters OF work require, and which
are fitted for that service, we
ought to patch our old clothes.

MI. VERNONROAD
MEMORIAL URGED
Forestry Association Proposes
That States Plant Trees
Along Highway.

Make the highway to Mt. Vernon a
great road of remembrance" lined
with memorial trees planted by the
States. That is the plan advanced
here today by the American Forestry
Association to Governor Westmore-
land Davis Of Virginia The associa-
tion would make this highway to
Americas shrine unit of the me-
mortal drives to the Liberty Memorial
Park heartily indorsed by the Daugh-
ters of the American Revolution at
the closing of its congress here. The
letter sent today by Charles Lathrop
Pack, president of the American
Forestry Association, urges that the
States be invited to plant such trees
as would make the road a real Road
of Remembrance"
Every year thousands make the
pilgrimage to Mt. Vernon, the ma
tion's shrine" said Mr.. Pack. The
road connects with the drive in Po-
tomac Park. and that in turn will
connect with the proposed river drive
to Rock Creek Park. Thus the ma
tion's capital has a great opportun-
ity for a memorial drive leading to
such a Liberty Memorial Park as pro-
posed by the Daughters of the Amer
lean Revolution. Place the memorial
building in such a memorial park.
Give every state a big part in such a
plan and nowhere in the world will
there be more fitting tribute to the
nations heroes"
Reports to the association show
that the American Legion, the Service
Star Legion, churches, schools, and
Rotary clubs have taken up the
Road of Remembrance and memorial
tree planting idea. The association
is registering all memorial trees in a
national honor roll.
