D. c. TRAFFIC COURT
/ NEED IS EXPLAINED

The need for a separate court in
Washington to handle all violations OF
the traffic laws was agreed upon by
members Of the House District COM
mittee, when Representative Fred
Zihfman Of Maryland, chairman Of a
special subcommittee, reported a re-
drafted bill to establish such a court.
1t was agreed, however, thatN there
was little chance of getting legisla-
ton through at this session.
Representative Zihlman pointed out
that there were twelve deaths from
traffic accidents in Washington during
December, and that in the last calen-
dar year there were 1856 persons
who put up collateral and forfeited It.
There were 400 convictions, he said,
and gave other statistics which MEM
bers OF the committee thought justi-
fled Mr.. Zihlman's argument that the
forfeiture of collateral had proved an
easy way to evade a fine or sentence
in court, and that it was not con-
ducive to the best traffic safeguards.
Representative Zihlman's redrafte ed
bill would create a distinct tramc
court, with a judge Of its own, to be
appointed by the President for a
term Of six years. at a salary of
$4,000. This traffic court would have
exclusive original jurisdiction over
offenses against any law. ordinance
or regulation in force in the District
relating to the regulation Of vehicular
traffic.
1t would also have exclusive orig
lnai jurisdiction over all provisions
of the new act, but no case pending

The men, who were under COM

The United States will be driven to

Forty Hour Devotion
Duly Closed.

The Mission conducted by Rev.
Father Antoine, Oblate Father,
pastor Of the st. Louis Cathe-
dral of New Orleans, which star
ted Thursday of last week, and
closed last Monday evening WAS
very successful, and was very
we'll attended. Sermons were de-
ivered morning and evening,
and on Sunday at the three
masses and in the evening. Du-
ring the mission, the three last
days thereof, the forty hours de
votion obtained, and the Blessed
Sacrament was exposed to the
oration of the faithful, and du-
ring the whole period the people
attended in goodly numbers. The
sermons delivered were well re-
ceived and the missionary's
words we're rendered with that
demonstration of sincerity that
drove every thought home, and
made his every sermon fully ap-
preciated.

On last Thursday the First Cir

Spring session at the local court
house, with Judges Leche and

were several appeals which
were up for hearing, but due to
the fact that most of them were

stitutional Convention, under
the ordinance of the Convention,
the matters went over. One case

rent will rost all consumers twen
ty five per cent less than they

The current consumed during
this month will be at the prevail
ing rates, and the reduction will
not be effective until next
month, hence there will be no re-
duction in in the pay checks
until the May settlement. The
cut is rendered possible by the
reduction in the cost of opera
ton. Several other communities

the privilege of having the pre-

officers of the Great Reserva-

and Great Chief st Clair Fa-

veral pale faces were scalped,
and adopted into the tribe. Fol-

of sea products and permissible

dance and all present made the
best of the occasion, Mr.. Pa

Beer May Now
Be Prescribed.

Prohibitionists received a hard
jolt last week, when previous to
making his exit as Attorney
General, Mitchell Palmer ruled
that under "Volstead Law" brew
cries could manufacture beer for
medicinal purposes, and that
Doctors could prescribe same as
a tonic. The opinion thus lega-
lized beer, and recognized its
medicinal properties. In conse-
quence there was gnashing Of
teeth by the 'holier than thou"
citizenary, and it was hoped the
new Attorney General Daughte-
~ would over rule, but nay, nay,
he endorsed the opinion of
Mitch, and in consequence time
is not distant when hops will
again regale the palate of those
who never could stand the baby
stuff, with infantile paralysis

Rehearing Set
For Tuesday.

A rehearing in the case of the
case of the Cumberland Tele-
phone & Telegraph Co. for an in
crease of rates has been granted
the city of New Orleans and 9th
er movers by the State Railroad
Commission. Interest is being
evidenced all over the State
and in several places in Louisi-
ana, particularly in north Loui-
siana, some local exchanges in
sequence stand in danger of be-
ing closed by the people refus-
ing to avail themselves of the
service, if the increase obtains.
Almost everywhere petitions adj
dressed to the Railroad Commits
sion are being freshly signed by
users, and on next Tuesday a
nightly array of voters will pre-
sent their protest and displea-
sure. A petition has been liberal
ly signed at the City Hall to the
same effect, following the pas
sage by the city authorities of
resolutions condemnatory of the
action Of the Commission.
The designations of the Com
misioners, Taylor and Michel,
are being demanded, and it is
surprising that a petition for
their recall has not been duly
circulated as yet. Whether the
reversal obtains or not, the in
crease is not presently opera
tive, and by no stretch of the i'm
agination is the company enti-
lied to the increase this month,
as the granting of the rehearing
suspended the judgment, which
was not final in time to be opera
i've and effective for March SER
vice.
A conference was held in Alex
andria last Wednesday and al
most all sections of the State
we're represented and it was de-
,ided to join New Orleans in
lighting the matter. A resolu-
tion committee was appointed
md DR.. HI. S. Smith was made a
member thereof.

NUMBER 5
Annual Communion
Societies And Men,

On last Sunday the CathoIci
Knights of America, and the
Knights Of Columbus held their
annual communion. Both organi-
cations, numbering several mem
bers had the major portion OF
the respective members in line,
and together with other Catholic
men from the parish marched up
and partook of Holy Eucharist.
The scene was a most inspiring
one. A special mass was offered
for the occasion, at seven thir-
ty, at which Rev. Father An
tome, delivered an English SER
mon in keeping with the occas-
sion. Following the mass the
organizations repaired to the
Thibodaux College, and in the
basement thereof sat down
to a repast especially prepared
by committee of ladies. DR.. Fe-
liX Gaudin, Supreme President
Of the Catholic Knights was in
attendance, at church, and at
the repast, and was the principal
and only orator of the occasion,
delivering a talk that was ap-
pealing and convincing, as well
as pleasing to the members Of
both organizations, and along
practical and extremely useful
lines.
