TO HOUSE
ON STREET CLOSING
D. C. Committee Gives Its
Approval-Site of Science
Building One Project.

The House today received a report
from the House District committee
favoring three pieces of legislation
regarding the closing of streets.
The most important of these pro-
vides for the closing of upper Water
street. between 21st and ed streets
northwest, in order that the National
Academy of Sciences may erect mil
licn-dollar building and grade the
ground into harmonious survey with
the Lincoln memorial and it's sur
roundings.
This measure has the Endorsement
Of the District Commissioners and the
Fine Arts Commission. The proposal
came before the House District COM
mittee from Charles D. Walcott, sec
retary of the Smithsonian Institution.
who is president of the National
Academy of Sciences.
Has Land and Funds.
DIR. Walcott pointed out that the
National Academy of Sciences was in
corporated by act of Congress In 1868
to investigate, examine, experiment
and report upon any subject OF SCI
ence Or art whenever called upon by
any department OF the government.
Through the munificence of friends
of science the academy has been able
to purchase the square bounded on
the north by c street northwest, on
the east by 21st street. on the west
by 22d street and on the south by
Upper Water street and a triangle
belonging to the park system of the
District. 1t has money available for
the erection of a million-dolla build
ing.
The Fine Arts Commission in a
letter to the House District commit
tee says:
street will in appearance cut dag
onally across the front, and this, to-
gether with the remnant of the res
ervation between upper Water street
and 3 street, will combine to present
in appearance a fraGmentary wedge
driven in between the Academy build
ing and Potomac Park, which VIII
no. be in keeping with the desired
harmony relation sought to be es-
tabliShed between the new building
and the Lincoln Memorial and its sur
roundings. Upper Water street is of
no practical use and has not been
since the abandonment of the Chesa-
peake and Ohio canal at this place"
Piney Branch Closing.
Representative Lampert of Wiscon-
sin wrote the favorable report on the
closing of Piney Branch road between
18th and Taylor streets and 10th and
Allison streets northwest. He quoted
letter from the District Commission
ers. in which they said: There is no
need for this portion of Piney Branch
road. and, in the opinion of the Com
missioners, it should be closed"
Chairman Focht wrote the report
which would authorize the removal of
bodies in the cemetery known as the
cemetery of Whites Tabernacle of the
Ancient Order of Sons and Daughters
and Brethren and Sisters of Moses.
The letter from the District Commits
sioners approving such removal says
that it is understood the owners of this
cemetery wish to remove the remains
of those members who have been
buried there so that the land may be
transferred to parties who have al
ready bought it.

CALLPARK|NG RULE
MUCH TOO DRASTIC
Chevy Chase Citizens Urge
Public Hearing on Pro-
posed Traffic Law.

Stating that 1t was the sense of the
Chevy Chase Citizens Association
that the amendmept to the traffic
regulations as proposed by the Dis
trict Commissioners, although made
in good faith, was too drastic, the as
sociation went on record at its meet
ing last night, in the Elizabeth V.
Brown School, as being unanimously
opposed to the prohibiting of vehicu-
lar parking in the congested section
of the city.
The association also voted that be-
fore the Commissioners considered
any such drastic measures they
should hold conference with repre-
sentatives of each citizens associa-
ton to discuss their feasibility.
Greater police protection for the
Chevy Chase section WAS asked for,
it being pointed out that although
the police department was fully re-
cruited up to its quota OF 80 mem
bers. at least $50 Of them were as
signed to special duties and Were nor
available for patrol duty. At the sub
T station. in Tcnleytown, il was
stated, there We're only twenty-nlnc
men available for patrol duty. when
when divided into three shifts ana
counting the men on leave of absence
leaves only about five or SIX men tcr
regular duty each shift.
The association reiterated its demand
for making Il regular precinct at Ten
leytown instead of the subs;ation that
now exists. The creation OF a regular
precinct there, it was declared, would
give the section more available men and
a patrol wagon, which is now lacking.
Numerous complaints were registered
last night concerning low gas pressure
in the section. J. Francis Moore, the
secretary, was ordered TO take the mat
ter up with the Public Utilities Com
mission.
An address was made by Prof. Franz
Daniel, principal of Mckinley Manual
Training School. who emphasized the
need of a new technical high school IN
the vicinity of Chevy Chase. 1t was
suggested that a school should be erect
ed near the bureau of standards. The
matter was referred 10 the legislative
committee for immediate action.
Seventeen new members were ad-
mitted last night. Fred S. Lincoln,
president, presided.

TOWN FATHERS TO DECIDE
WHETHER BRAYING MULE
MUST GO TO JAIL OR NOT

MOUNT RAINIER, Nd, october
2O.-Have the mayor and town
council of Mount Rainier power to
lodge in Jail mule whose braying
annoys the populace?
This is question the town
fathers of this place now are try
ing to settle. A petition, signed
by thirty residents of Mount Raj
nier and fifteen residents of Brent
wood. has been presented the
council praying that the council
do away with the braying mule,
which they term a nuisance.
Search of town ordinances reveals
that the only regulation even re-
motely bearing on the subject is
one forbidding the erection of
stable, except upon written con-
sent of the owners of abutting
property. and one forbidding the
blowing of whistles of certain
kinds at certain times.
1nasmuch as the petitioners did
not complain of Il whistle, and as
the mules bray was not included
in the inhibited list, the mayor
and council are unable to start
either the mule or it's owner in
the direction of the hoosegoW. 1t
is intimated. however, that all 9TH
err efforts failing, the council may
enact legislation providing a PEN
atty to fit the case.
