SENATE TO ACT ON BUREAU
Committee Soon to Report on Cara
way Resolutions.

The Senate. it appears. is to be
given an opportunity before long to
consider the Caraway resolutions
asking the President for information
regarding the dismissal of former
Director Wilmeth and other employees
of the bureau of engraving and
printing. Three of these resolutions,
introduced by the Arkansas senator.
were referred to the civil service
committee.
The resolution providing for the
appointment Of a special committee
of the Senate to investigate the dis
missals will be reported adversely
and the Senate will then be at lib
erty to do with it as it sees fit. Some
of the democratic members will con-
cur in the adverse report. on the
ground that another of the Caraway
resolutions. calling upon the fresi-
dent for information regarding the
dismissa1s, covers the ground. That
resolution probably will be reported
to the Senate. too. and. If it is, the
report will go fully into the whole
matter, it is believed.

IN PLANNING PLAY PIER

Root Rhodes. supervisor of play
grounds. will visit the J. Maury Dove
lumber wharf at the foot of 18Th
street this week. preparatory to
planning the establishment of Il
recreation pier after the Dove Com
pany vacates the property next
month.
Both the Commissioner and Mrs
Rhodes are enthusiastic over the
prospect of converting this part of
the waterfront into playground for
the children of the southwest, since
it is in line with the desire of the
city heads to improve the appearance
of the commercial side of Washing
ton channel
District officials are considering the
possibility of erecting a small pier at
the wharf. which could be used as a
recreation place for adults in the
evenings, aside from its use as play
ground by children during the day.
Mrs. Rhodes pointed out yesterday
that in Philadelphia some of the play
grounds, equipped with brilliant cleo
trio lights. are used by young men
and women al night in playing tennis
and similar games. 1t has been one
of the aims of Mrs. Rhodes for long
time to have the Fairgrounds OF
Washington Illuminated, so that the
older boys and girls of the city
might use the tennis courts after
working hours.
