cable. tho appointment be made rom
the present police force rather than oy

and who would be unknown TO the
taxpayers and residents OF tho city.
according to resolution aoopteo
unanimously at the meeting OF the
West End Citizens Association last
night at the Copcordia Lutheran
Church, goth and G streets. The .reso-
luton was introduced by Capt. George
W. Evans.
TWO other resolutions were adopted
following their presentation by Capt
Evans. The first one called for ap-
propriate action by Congress to be
taken concerning the construction OF
a memorial bridge across the Potomac
river, connecting the National Capital
with Arlington national cemetery. and
opening another gateway to the south.
The resolution further asked that due
and favorable consideration be given
to the recommendation Of the War De-
partment for an initial appropriation
of So, 900. now before the House ap-
preparations committee, for the pres
entation of plans and other, prelimi-
nary work.

The other resolution was a recon-
mendation to Congress that sn amend
ment be made to the existing statutes
in the District Of Columbia concerning
diseases, providing that 1t be made COM
pulsory for physicians practicing medi-
cine in the District to report to the
health office each case Of a contagious
onsinfectious disease coming within his

ity Of the brick sidewalks in the West
End section were condemned in an ad-
dress Of Albert b. Setback, who pre-
scented q resolution calling upon the
Commissioners to have the brick side
walks replaced with cement ones. The
association voted affirmatively.
A communication was read from Sal
vatore Scalco asking that the associa-
tion take some action concerning the
arrest Of the push cart venders- The
association. however, decided that no
action was necessary and deemed 1t
best that they voice no interference in
the police regulations at this time.

snowden Ashford. former munich
pal architect. addressed the associa-

some stereopticon views Of many Of
the Districts schools and high
schools. He stated that the school
situation here was not as bad as

which. he said, were very unjust. He
stated that there was plenty of room
for the school children. but that the
